WILL MAKE
DONATION.
Provided Railroad c m p IN y
Will Deliver Goods.

There was some confusion a
the meeting of citizens which
was held at the board of trade
rooms Thursday afternoon for
the purpose of taking action on
the proposition presented by
Messrs. Frank Jenkins, E. R.
Stewart and Robert r. Zell, pro-
moters of the proposed Tombig-
bee railroad, in regard to the
terms of the fifty thousand dol
lar subscription which the peo-
pie of Columbus are asked to
make. At the request of the
citizens in mass meeting assem-
bled the gentlemen named above
drew up in writing a proposition
which they submitted to a spec
ial committee appointed to re-
ceive the same and to devise a
means Of raising the money pro-
vided that they considered the
proposition fair and equitable
one. The committee, however,
after a careful examination of
the proposition came to the con-
clusion that it was entirely un-
satisfactory, as it only stipulated
the manner in which the money
was to be paid and conveyed no
obligation on the part of the pro-
moters to ever build mile of the
road.
The omission of a clause bind
ing them to build the road might
have been due to an oversight
on the part of the gentlemen
making the proposition, but the
citizens decided not to take any
chances in the matter, and after
an extended discussion it was
decided to offer them the fifty |
thousand dollars asked for, pay
able In two installments, the first |
twenty five thousand dollars
to be paid when the road is con-
from Linden, Ala, to
this city, and the second twenty
five thousand when the line is
completed either to West Point
or Aberdeen.
Judge Newman Cayce, the
chairman of the committee hav-
ing the matter in charge, was
instructed to write Mr.. Jenkins
and inform him of the action
taken at the meeting, and pro-
vided the proposition of the citi-
zens is accepted the money will
be raised by private subscrip-
ton.

duty it would be to induce i'm
migrants to locate here and for

here. The agricultural interests
and conditions of the state were
discussed and reviewed a
length. Judge Critz stating that
as 80 per cent. Of the states
population is made up of farmers
that the interests of this class
should be carefully and intelli-
gently looked after. He said he
favored doing everything posi-
bic to induce foreign capital to

were established on a paying ba-

not believe in forcing railroads

the burden of taxation, as TO do

r did not believe In putting ID

e for the state on the farms wher
Il they now are.
Judge Critz dwelt at length OF
t the public school question, say
ing that the people of Columbu:
and Lowndes county were won
> derfully well provided for along
, this line. He said, however
that he believed that the time
was close at hand when the ru-
raj schools would be open nine
months out of every year. He
said that he believed in the
adoption of uniform text books
and that public training schools
should be established for the
benefit of the teachers Of the
state.
Referring to the subject Of the
education of the negro, Judge
Critz said that it was aught but
folly to speak of taking from
the blacks the privilege of edu-
cation, as such thing would be
unconstitutional.
In conclusion, Junge Critz said /
that he was in favor of liberal 4
appropriations for INDECENT Con-
federate soldiers, and thought I
that ample provision should be
made for the maintenance Of
Beauvoir as q home for them.
Alter Judge Critz had finished
his address the meeting ad-
journed for dinner, and re-as-
sembled at 2:30 p. m, at which
time Senator Noel begun his
speech. AS is well known TO the
people of the county, Senator I
Noel is the father Of the primary +
law which is at present at oper-
alton in the state. Ii is largely (
on this fact that his candidacy I
is predicated. He began his ad-
dress by paying tribute 70 the
representatives of the county in
the last Legislature and 10 the
Industrial Institute and College,
of which he said he had always
been loyal friend and enthu-
siastic supporter. He touched
upon his service in the Hispan0-
American war, saying that he
was one of the first to volunteer
his services.
Touching his candidacy, SEN
ator Noel said that the office Of
governor was one to which there
is a great deal of work attached
and that the man elected should
be working man, and not a
dreamer or an idealist. He
claimed to be worker and said
that he did not expect TO walk
into office on sentimental ideals
and hypothetical platitudes, but
said that he set up his claims for
5he office of governor on his ca
pacity as a business man and
worker and one in every way .
qualified to administer the af-
fairs Of the office. He said that {

Plans Mapped Out for Disposing the
Naval Vessels.


In view Of the possibility OF war between
Russia and Japan. the general board OF
the navy. Of which Admiral Dewey is
president. has mapped out general plans
for the disposal Of the American warships

opened to the commerce of the world.
Rear Admiral Evans, commanding the
Asiatic fleet, Is now at Nagasaki with the
principal vessels OF his command, and can
readily execute the movement referred to
on the receipt Of orders to that effect
The plan OF the general board, as far as
It relates to the free ports in Manchuria

Department, as being in line with the policy
OF maintaining the open door in the Chinese
negotiations between Russia and China as
to the actual occupation and government of
the territory. The naval policy Of the
United states involves no Interference with
the controversy, and Is not designed as a
menace to any particular power, but Is In
tended merely as an earnest of the purpose
OF the United States to protect its interests
in Manchuria.
Admiral Evans has in his command the
battle ships Kentucky. Wisconsin and Ore
gon. the monitors Monterey and Monad-
mock the protected cruisers Albany, Gin
cinnati, New Orleans and Releigh, the gun
boats Annapolis. Helena, Vicksburg and
Wilmington, the former Spanish gunboats
