TIE big life insurance companies
are still writing policies in New Or
leans, and this is pretty good indi-
cation that there is not much danger
of the yellow fever becoming cpl
demic in that city. The companies
would not be looking for new business
there if they thought the death rate
was going up much.

Chief Reino1d Finds Two Men Who
Fail to Account for Themselves

hobos, were locked in the county jail
Sunday night for safe keeping. They
were found hiding in the high grass
in the rear of the residence of former

WANT TREES TRIMMED
Police Get Many Complaints of Trees
Obstructing the Streets

The police of the city are receiving
many complaints or account of the
fact that streets and sidewalks have
been obstructed by the overhanging
branches of trees. In some places
the trees have become puisance. ais
it is impossible for loaded wagons to
pass under them. There is a law on
the city books which gives the police
the power to demand that the trees
be trimmed, and some action should
be taken at once.
It is hoped that this will be warn
ing to property,owners and save the
officers the trouble of further taking
up the matter.

writer would have had similar experience with
the Bib county statesman early in the last ses-
sion of the legislature, but for our mate and un-
shakable amiability. Mr.. Hall took exceptions
to the tone of the Enterprise on gubernatorial
matters and, as we stood near the clerks desk
in the House of representatives, Mr.. Hall APP
preached US with vehement protestations, but
our placid disposition was equal to the emerg-
ency with the result that we are now warm per-
sonal friends if not really kinfolks.

If one kills himself he is called
a suicide if he kills a brother he
is fraticide, if he kills someone
of no kin he is homicide, but if
he kills his towns by sending
away to buy things that he ought
to buy at home, be becomes the
entire lot of "cides" into one.
We wonder if people who contin-
ually buy goods away from home
ever think of the tendency of this
nefarious practice. They are
helping to k II the town in which
they live by destroying its BUSH
ness and lowering the price of
real estate and driving out its

Railroads are Spending Millions.

In an article on the progress
and prosperity of the South, the
New York Sun says that $780,
900, 900 have been invested in new
industrial enterprises in the
Southern states the last three
years. ''P robably the greater
part of this can be traced either
directly or indirectly to the work
of the land and industrial Depart
ments of the railroads., says the
Sun.
Every important road now has
it's industrial and immigration
department with agents who are
constantly on the lookout for new
industries. Each road tries to
get all new mills, factories, colon
les farmers and truck groves it
can. The agents hunt for the
best locations, and do all they can
to settle new people along their
lines. The Atlantic Coast Line
and the Seaboard Air Line start
ed tobacco growing in the Caro-
1inas. The old Florida and
Western promoted water melon
raiaing in South Georgia. The
Central of Georgia encouraged
peach growing in the middle part
of the State. The Southern has
paid special attention to the
building of new cotton mills in
the South just as the l.. & N.
has encouraged the opening of
coal and iron mines and the
building of furnaces.
A railroad will spend thousands
of dollars on side tracks and ex-
tensions to get a new industry

In Atlanta, the Southern is

Loose Stock a Nuisance.

|
The last paragraph of your re-
port; in the Enterprise, of Coun-
Gil proceedings is that of the
clerks being requested to draft
an ordinance to provide against
the practice of leaving horses I'M
hitched on the streets and to pre-.
vent the driving of mules and
horses in droves through the
streets. This move in the
right direction, but it does not go
far enough. It should prohibit
driving cattle or cows loose
through the streets in such
careless way as to be permitted
to browse on the young trees and
shrubbry that some of us are try
to grow to give our part of the
city a modern appearance: and
make it attractive, like to our
fellow citizens and the stranger,
who visits us.
Not long since the writer was
so situated as to see COW, care
1essly driven by a boy, take a
young tree about five feet high,
by the top, and pull it out of the
ground braking the roots of two
years growth. I noticed also on
the same line of walk that shrubs
and small stress were eaten off to
the ground. The loss and ag-
gregation is less when cows are
let out than they would be if
be if stock running at large did
the damage.
Most of the people lead their
COWS through the street and
every one should be obliged to
do so or be made liable for the
damage done by careless driving.
l am but one of many asking the
council to protect us by ordi-
nance from cows running loose,
to and from pastures as we'll as
from the driving of mules and
horses loose through the streets.
We trust the council will take
cognesance of this matter at once
and give us protection that we
may be encouraged to beautify
the town.
Some of our citizens are al
ready doing away with fences
and the whole town should feel
safe in doing the same. The
fence should be as unnecessary
here as it is in the hundreds Of
nice modern towns all over the
country.
Most people are ready and
anxious to beautify their side
walks make their front roads
open and attractive but this cam
not be done as long as others
are so careless and Indifferent as
to allow their cows to depredate
as they are driven by. There
are some who will not cease to be
Indifferent in such matters, until
they are compelled by law to re-
spect the welfare of the public.
Therefore we ask you to incor-
porate in the ordinance a pro-
vision against driving cows loose
headed through the streets.
