and other wizards, transferring bare
walls into places OF enchantment.
By an arrangement recently made be-
tween transportation company and
the railroads it is believed there will be
no delay in delivering the many train
loads Of exhibits within the gates Of
the Exposition. Extensive preparations
have been perfected to handle all
freight that comes into the city, and, in
addition to service by a system Of big
drays-some propelled by steam, others
drawn by horses-which is designed for
the smaller shipments, car load lots
will enter direct over the several switch
lines that wind in and out between the
buildings.
In order that no delay might be
caused by severity of the weather the
Exposition management looked espe-
cially to the construction of the road
beds during the late fall Of 1903, and
now there is no danger that heavy
drays will be stalled in soft, muddy
places, but all can proceed on smooth,
hard surface to the place of destination.

the Terminal Railroad Association,
which controls all shipments of freight
delivered by roads from the east, has
| doubled its capacity for handling
freight in both the St. Louis and East
st. Louis yards, and it is now believed
that during the busiest weeks, which
will undoubtedly be those of March and
April, there will be no congestion
across the two big bridges that span
the Mississippi. Should there be, how
ever, resort can be had to the ferry
service, which also has been increased
in order to care for any emergency.
Shippers all agree that freight is ar
irving in st. Louis better today than
ever before, and this Notwithstanding
the fact that the terminal facilities are
not quite completed and that number
Of tracks cannot be operated because
Of laborers being engaged in their re-
construction. A recent test proved that
consignment of freight from Boston
was delivered in building on the Fair
grounds seven days after it's shipment
from a warehouse in that eastern city,
and all persons who have any knowl-
edge Of such matters must admit that
this is very fair time.
As for the western roads, they all
have spurs leading direct to the Expo.

be switched direct into the grounds
without even a days detention in the
yards.
Those who have the work Of deliver.

seen occurs, there should be no delay
In filling the palaces with the wares
that will comprise the wonderful dis
play.

PRAISE FOR PAYNE.
President Congratulates Postmaster
General for Successful Presecu-
ton of Conspiracy Cases.

Washington, March 1.-The president
has sent the following letter to Post
master General Payne:
white House, Washington, Feb. ~,
1904.-My Dear Mr.. Postmaster Cen
eral: While all the work of the post
office department and the department
OF justice in connection with the postal
frauds is not yet over there is already
to the credit of the departments, and
therefore primarily to your credit, such
an amount of substantial achievement
that take this opportunity to congrat-
ulate you personally upon it. It is inn
possible to expect that corruption will
not occasionally occur in any govern
ment. The vital point is the energy,
the fearlessness, and the efficiency
with which such corruption is cut out
and the corruptionists punished. The
success of the prosecutions in this case,
as compared with previous experiences
in prosecuting government officials who
have been guilty Of malfeasance or
misfeasance, is as noteworthy as it is
gratifying, and must be source of en-
couragement to all men who believe in
decency and honesty in public life.
What has been accomplished by you,
by those who have worked under you
in your department, and by the depart
ment of justice, rebounds to the credit
of the whole people and is a signal
triumph for the cause of popular gov
eminent If corruption goes unpunish-
ed in popular government, then govern
ment by the people will ultimately
fail, and they are the best friends of
the people who make it evident that
whoever in public office, or in connec-
ton with public Office, sins against the
fundamental laws of civic and social
well being, will be punished with un-
sparing rigor.
Sincerely yours,
THEODORE ROOSEVELT"

The Greenwood Commonwealth con-
graduates itself upon having just
completed a big order for printing for
a local banking institution, and adds
that it was the largest order Of the
kind ever placed with a local printing
establishment. This is as it should
be. Local institutions should consid-
er it not only a duty but a pleasure
to patronize the home printer, yet al
together too many Of them send their
work abroad, and in some instances
the further the order goes the better
pleased they seem to be, The litho-
graphers and metropolitan printers
come in for a large slice of the country
work that should, through local pride
if for no other reason, go to the home
printer, provided, of course, that the
printing is executed, as The Common
wealth says this order was, up to the
highest standard.

BANKS SHOW INCREASE.
Deposits Jump Over $4,000 900. An
Increase of 81 Per Cent.

The prosperity Mississippi has en-
joyed during the past twelve years is
splendidly illustrated by the state
ment just issued by the comptroller of
the currency showing the volume OF
deposits in national, state, savings
and private banks, says the Clarion
Ledger.
In 1892, or twelve years ago, the
deposits in banks Of all kinds in Mis-
sissippi amounted to only S7,093, $50.
In 1902 the deposits were s29,
1926, an increase of 1922, $50, 795, or 311
per cent.
The figures for 1903 are based on
the bank statements issued on the
30th Of June of that year. On the
1st of January, 1904, the money on
deposits in state banks alone in Mis-
siSsippi was yer 1872, 900, 900. Accord
ing to the statement of the state aud
itor the deposits on the Goth of May,
this year, were $25, sos, GAL. 80, con-
siderable money having been with
drawn to be used in pitching the cot
ton crop, and investments in other
lines of business. The aggregate bank
deposits, state and national, at this
time will probably amount to about
$50, 000, 600 but by the first of Janu-
airy next year on account of the mar
keting of the cotton crop, they will
go to about $40, 900, 900.
The increase of 311 per cent in
Mississippi within the twelve year
period is larger than the showing
made by any other state in the South
except West Virginia, where the de-
posits increased 445 per cent for the
same period. North Carolina is third
with ali increase of 213 per cent, and
Arkansas is fourth with a 217 per cent
increase. Tennessee shows 153 per
cent, Louisiana 141 per cent, and AL
ALBANIA 100 per cent.
