OUR CANDIDATES.

BY oversight we failed to publish
the petitions of the voters asking that
Mr.. ]. l.. Hebron. Jr., stand as a
candidate for the senate and Mr.. Percy
Bell as q candidate for the lower
house. The Times was the first to
claim the honor Of suggesting Mr..
Hebron for the position, while the
paper published at Mr.. Hebron's
former home, the Leland Enterprise,
claims the same. On this question we
will not fall out and we are glad to
see that from the numreously signed
petition, by voters throughout the
county, he is the favorite, not only
with the papers, but with the people.
Mr.. Hebron, by his knowledge OF
planting interests, law and business,
is peculiarly fitted to make the county
ole of lie t is Legislators and we hope
he will decide after seeing tn. petition
- make Il Q race.
Mr.. Percy Bell. for whom the other
petition is signed to become candi-
date for the legislature, is a yorng man
of fine ability. For four yeras he
served as superintendent of education
of the county and made an efficient
officer. Mr.. Bell is a ready talker
and convincing debator and any cause
he champions in the interest OF our
people will be successful, if there is
any show for it. Intelligent, honest,
fair and successful he is the kind OF a
man that the county needs to repre-
sent it in that honorable body, and we
hope he will see proper to allow his
name to go before the people as a
candidate. He is too we'll known
here for us to say more.

PAVE THE STREETS.

Complete the sewerage and
/ zen pave the Streets" is the ex-
preston intelligent citizens are
heard to remark on the streets,
since the council passed the order
20 hold an election to decide wheth-
er or not the city will vote to issue
$50, 900 Of bonds for the paving of
the principal streets Of the city.
This. in our opinion, is idle talk,
and is no argument for or against
paving. The completion OF the
sewerage has no more to do with
paving of streets, than it would
haveIb zen to say, that had the sew
erage system been started before
the water works, that we should
not have built our splendid paying
system of water works until the
sewerage was completed. If we
h ID, the city would have been with
out the pure water it has today.
The present winter has thor
oughly convinced our people that
we must have paved streets. The
over-worked, crippled and dead
horses and mules that can be
traced to their heavy and impassi-
BILE condition would, counted in
dollars, and cents, more than pay
the interest on the bonds.

LET JUSTICE AND NOT INFLU-
ENCE DECIDE.

The motion to bring the People Is
Compress into the city was defeated
by tie vote of the council, the may
or casting his vote in the negative.
Mr.. Blum voted against the PROPOSE
ton. He is stakeholder and presi-
dent of the compress. The question
is doubtful, one. Much can be said
on either side. but of this we are
sure the tax payers would have been
better satisfied that the correct result
was reached If it had not been arrived
at by the vote of an i: rested party.
It is too great strain upon the con-
fidence of the people to ask that thew
feel that Q councilman can cast h 8
vote with an eye single to the, public
welfare when he is an interested par
ty, especially when this vote favored
his interest, for
"--Mankind is unco'weak,
And little to be trusted;

problem OF THE FUTURE.

Zone of the greatest problems
which we will have to solve in
twenty years from now will be
what we are to do with the aged,
unmarried women who have been
self-surpporting. Since women
have left the threshold of the
home, cast aside family relations
and entered the business world
priding themselves upon the fact
that they are self supporting and
quite independent Of home
they have taught their old fashion,
ed relatives that they no longer
will occupy the home. and as they
are earning large saleries, the re-
latives, naturally, expect them to
become rapidly rich. consequently
there will be no chimney corner
for them in their declining years
las heretofore. And if they do not
provide for this old age which will,
be upon them in a few years, when
they will be useless in business
and they will be in many cases
invaids, with no particular place
in the world where they will be
welcome what is to become of
themP You may think I am look
ing too far ahead, but don't you
see that is serious question:

The ground taken by Mayor
Shields in casting his vote against
the taking in Of the People, s
Compress" was well taken. To
bring the compress into the city,
if it required the outlying cotton
fields OF forty acres, would prove in
the end bad investment as the ex-
pense of improvements would far
exceed the taxes paid in for several
years to come. From the state
ment made by Mr.. Blum, if true,
it would be a question whether it
would ever pay to bring the com
press alone into the city, but on
the other hand, if we take the
statement Of Mr.. Willczinski,
that it receives city fire protection
and privileges equal to other corp
orations it should be taken in
and help share the burden of tax
alton, thereby proving a source. OF
revenue to the city.

The news of the rivers above are
a litlle alarming, but We. ar assured
by Mr.. CHI. West, chief engineer
Of our own levee board, that there
is no real cause for alarm. The
leyees are stronger than in 1897,
and the engineers are alert to any
danger that may arise. Ii the
rains in the upper valley will cease
and the weather turns cold in the
North the present water will go
down and relieve all anxiety, but
should the rains continue with the
rise now expected the situation
will become critical. Time and
not brains will solve the water
question.
