THURSDAY, APRIL q
Industrial Training.

Attention is especially called to the
extract from Superintendent Shull's
annual report which treats on indus
trial training, and which is published
In another column. Mr.. Shull handles
the subject in an exhaustive manner
andahis arguments in favor of the
training cannot help but impress all
who read.
There Is no doubt about tho need
snd demand for such a branch in the
l schools OF this city. This is shown by
the crowded condition OF u grammar
schools and the comparatively few who
continue through the high school.
Latin, Greek, chemistry and higher
mathematics are excellent. They
train the mind and memory and give
a cultured finish to the young man or
woman starting out to face the world,
but 1t Is not everyone who feels the
need of all this. Particularly is this
SO in Perth Amboy. II is safe TO say
the great majority of the youths of
this city have no desire for the profess
sional life, and the desire cannot be
created in them. They want education
enough to enable them to hold down a
good job, nor is this to be discour.
nged. All cannot hold the kid glove
positions. The great majority must be
rdachinists, carpenters, masons, wheel
weights aid the like. The nation can
not get along without them, hut the
better these men are trained the
better citizens they will be and right
here Is where the industrial training
school comes in. Perth Amboy is a
workingman's city and he wants his
children trained to work. Let the eX-
ceptionally bright ones, who have a
longing for college, make their choice,
the high school is open for them, bat
IL is the duty of Perth Amboy to pro-
vide an industrial training school for
the hundreds who are ''just ordinary"
and, after securing a good English
education, are ready to turn their at
tention to training the hands.
Read what Mr.. Shull has to say and
see what you think about the estab-
iishment of such an institution in
Perth Amboy.

Natchez to Woodville.

1t is authoritatively stated here the
Yazoo & Mississippi Valley Railroad
company has corps of engineers en-
gagged In making a survey between
Natchez and Woodville, Miss, with
the view of constructing the much
talked of Woodville loop. Woodville
Is only thirty-four miles distant from
Natchez by direct road and the con-
struction Of the railroad ould great
ly shorten the distance; and will also
lessen the distance between Natchez
and New Orleans very materially. The
deciding of the Yazoo & Mississippi
Valley Company to build this loop is
said to result from the fact Of the
proposed construction of the Missis-
sippi Central road into Natche.z The
construction of the proposed line by
the Valley people will open up some
very fertile farming lands and also
some rich forecasts Of long leaf yell
low pine.

Bourse Depressed.

Paris.-There was depression on
the bourse owing to the continued I'M
certainty and fears regarding the sit
uation in Russia and the Moroccan
situation. Russians were particularly
effected, imperials losing 8 francs, 1Oc,
and Russian bonds declining heavily
since the last quotation of Thursday.
Towards the close there was slight
upward tendency but prices closed
weak above the earlier figures. The
decline in Russians is attributed to
the events in the Baltic provinces and
the reported lamentable condition Of
the Russian army in Manchuria. The
publication of the Moroccan yellow
book has created a public impression
that Germany took an aggressive and
almost belligerent attitude, but the
approach of the Moroccan conferences
leads to fears of a recurrence Of Ger
many's aggressiveness.

y officials are reticent about what

FEET gossip, that DR.. J. S. Walker,
aPsldent and receiver Of the defunet
erchants Planters Bank, was in

Veterinary for State Farm.

At the January meeting Of the pris-
on board of control a proposition will
be submitted to create the office Of
prison, veterinarian, and it is believed
that it will receive favorable consid-
Grafton. Some time since the board
decided to convert the Oakley place
into a modern stock farm, and quite a
number of improvements looking to
this end have been made, the place be-
ing stocked with the best grades Of
cattle, mules and horses, and in the
future the board will endeavor to raise
all Of the work animals needed on the
other prison farms. Some Of the mem
bers believe that in order to assure the
success of this enterprise a first class
veterinarian should be secured, and
the matter will be discussed fully at
the January meeting. Several names
have been proposed for the Office.

New Equipment.

An equipment agreement has been
fled by the Southern Railway Compa-
my with Secretary of State Power,
covering large amount of the new
equipment recently ordered for this
system. The agreement covers nine
ty-eight engines, to be used for both
freight and passenger traffic, 800 bal
last cars, $50 fat cars and $50 gon-
dola cars. The amount represented by
this purchase is $2,S00,000, which is
the largest amount that has been ex-
pended by road in this section Of
the country for new equipment in sew
eral years. In view of the fact that
the Southern Railway is planning
quite number Of new lines, several
of which are to be built I'm Mississippi,
this order for equipment is Of more
than usual interest.

"a strong effort is being made by the
ends of the proposed new county Of

of 437 square miles and a popula-

essment $2,400,00o, and a popula-
Ia of 10000. It would leave Frank
with 468 square miles, an assess

Spirited Fight Brewing.

Members of the R. A. Smith Camp,
United Confederate Veterans, of Jack
son, were very much surprised upon
receiving copies of the following reso-
olutions adopted by the camp of Unit
ed Confederate Veterans at Yazoo
City:
Resolved, that this camp is heart
lily In favor of removing the Confed-
crate monument from the grounds Of
the old capitol at jackson to the
grounds of the new capitol, and that
we request our representatives in the
legislature to use their best efforts to
consummate this end"
This resolution, if an attempt is
made to carry it out, is certain to pro-
woke a spirited fight, as the Confed-
ate veterans in Jackson are strongly
opposed to the removal of the monu-
ment, and have heretofore voiced
their disapproval of the proposition.
The monument now occupies CEN
trail position in Memorial Park, which
was set aside by the legislature from
a portion of the old state house
grounds, and is governed by a spe-
cial commission appointed during
Gov. Longino's administration. The
R. A. Smith camp, has been collect
ing funds for several months to be
used in identifying the grounds.

By II. +. BLAKEsLEI. Jackson, Mss.

A friend in speaking to the writer
few days since remarked that it
must be continual strain to write SO
much optomistic matter concernig
Mississippi. 1t is generally conceded
that it Is much easier to criticise than
to commend. But the work Of re-
cording good things about our great
state is no task at ALL The only trou-
BILE experienced is in keeping within
the limit placed on the space allowed
by the ready-print houses. There is
SO much that can be said, and that
without getting beyond the plea of
facts, that it is an easy matter to fill
the two columns allowed. The news
papers OF the state, from which the
matters handled are taken, are falling
more every week into the habit of
recording experiences that are inter-
esting and convincing, and at the
present rate Of improvement within
short time whole page would be re-
quired to keep in touch with the good
things being done in Mississippi.
An addition is to be made to the
Laurel cotton mill, 16Ox75 feet which
will contain $500 spindles and all nee
essary preparatory machinery. This
mill is large one and the new machin
cry to be added will give it consum-
ing capacity of 10000 bales Of cot
ton per year, or just about as much
cotton as, is raised in Jones county.
The mill has proven a paying propo-
sltlon and IS a great thing for that
section. Then too it will be prepared
to use all of the cotton raised in Jones
county. How many counties in Mis-
slssippi manufacture all Of the cotton
raised therein? Not another one, but
everybody should do So. When Mis-
sissippi manufactures the cotton rails
ed within her borders and receives the
whole amount Of money spent for the
completed product, then will we have
a "Greater Mississippi" in every
sense of the word so far as our leading
product, cotton, is concerned.

acres Of land in the south end Of the

orchard in the world. The soil Of that
