THE PAVING QUESTION.

1t is now an assured fact that the
paving question in this city will lie
dormant SO far as actual work is con-
cerned, until next year. In the mean
time the preliminary work may be
done. AS was stated in the report of
the committee of the Commercial club
to the city council, the plan is to have
all the water mains, and other connec-
tons made in the first paving district
of the city this year SO that the
work of actual paving may be taken up
in earnest next yesr.
This delay calls to mind the feelings
OF boy who plants tree that he may
enjoy the shade when the tree has
grown to that dimension. 1t may be
the best way but the delay is some
what disappointing
In the meantime there is abundance
best kind Of material to use. This
is Il decidedly important matter, as
it not only concerns the present cost,
but because of the permanency of the
work to be done, it also concerns the
cost in the future as we'll
One thing which makes the material
used of Importance is the fact that it
is subjected to the severe freezing of
this climate. This makes the use of
material which solidifies for the entire
street covering an experiment at least.
The paving materials which form an
entire body must be largely affected
by heat and cold. The contraction and
expansion of the matter under the
different temperatures must result in
breaking the formation. Whether or
not the macadam material is sufficient
ly compact to form into solid mass,
thus leaving it to be broken and spoil
ed by the action Of the heat and cold
has probably not been determined. If
1t has the ability to resist these, it
would certainly be the ideal material,
if the matter of cost did not enter in
to the matter 1t is solid, compact, and
lasting.
But when all is considered it will
be found that the present system is
not far from the best. 1t may not last
so long as some of the others, but it
has the advantage of cheapness as
compared with the majority of the
other materials. 1t has been argued
against the cedar block system that it
is not SO easy to keep clean as are
those which do not require sand for
filling. This is the fault largely Of
conditions and not of the character
of the paving. when some of the
streets remain unpaved they must
naturally become muddy. Travel from
these unpaved streets to those which
are paved carries this mud to the lat
ter and it is from this source that the
dirt and dust found on the paved
streets come. With solid foundation
upon which the blocks could rest there
should be but little of the sand filing
found above the surface.
The blocks are not affected by the
heat or cold, neither do they break

THE RETIREMENT OF COUNT
WITTE

AhS ASAt StiiCAS VI Souhl w lllC llOl
the prime ministership of Russia just
at the present time is matter of
considerable interest. While the an
nouncement has probably caused no
great amount of surprise, considering
the fact that for several months this
change has been freely predicted, it is
nevertheless true that both in Russia
and outside of that country it will
cause considerable regret, partly for
the reason that NJ. Whites distin-
guished services for his government
have seemed to deserve better re-
quital than what is practically a dis
missal from the place he has so ably
filled, partly because there are doubts
whether any other man can guide Rus
sian affairs through this critical period
as wisely and as we'll as he could,
and partly because of the suspicion
that his dismissal means the ascend
ancy of those reactionary influences
which have long been arrayed against
him.
The successor of Count White is to be
NJ. Goremykin, who is referred to by
some as weakling and by others as
reactionary. 1t is probable that
neither judgment is just. He has been
conspicuous in public life and in the
direction of large affairs for many
years. and some of his achievements
have certainly indicated the possession
of talents of no mean order. He has
never. SO far as is recalled. been
identified with harsh. repressive or
despotic policies, but. on the contrary,
he has been the author OF some of the
most liberal and progressive acts of
the Russian government in recent
years. 1t is possible, therefore, that
instead of the change in the Russian
premiership resulting in resumption
of the crisis which has scarcely been
passed in the affairs of that nation it
may prove actually beneficial to the
general situation, or at least devoid
of any particular significance as re-
CARDS a possible change of policy on
the part of the government This is
regarded as the more likely for the
reason that the car himself must
realize that any marked tendency to-
ward reaction, and especially if it
should include a repetition of the
proposed reforms, would be sure to
arouse a feeling of popular resent
ment which might quickly revive the
spirit of revolution.
AS matter of fact the whole trend
of the recent elections has been to-
ward a popular taking of the car
at his word and toward a loyal ac-
ceptance in good faith of the reforms
which he has irrevocably decreed.
Any attempt to check the tide of pro-
gress which has thus been set in mo-
ton would almost certainly result in
conflict compared with which all that
has yet occurred in Russia would be
"as water unto wiue" Further de-
velopments will be awaited with great
interest and with some anxiety, but
in,:the absence of anything more omin-
GUS than yet appears it is reasonable
to expect, even in Count Whites re-
tirement, the unchecked progress and
ultimate success of the measures which
that distinguished statesman has SO
greatly promoted for the regeneration
of the Russian empire.

Last Thursday night a negro, calling
himself Willis Thomas, claiming to
come from Gourdins, driving a black
horse with blaze face, hitched to a
buggy, stopped at March McCray's
place at ';Winter's HILL" about four
miles west OF Manning. The horse had
evidently been severely driven and
bruised. The negro claimed that his
horse had fallen in a bridge, and asked
to be allowed to leave it until he could
go to Silver to see a sister, that he
would return the next day or Satur-
day. The man has never returned,
and NIcCray suspects that the fellow
has committed some crime and
was making his escape with a stolen
horse and buggy, both Of which are
still in McCray's possession. If there
is a horse and buggy missing anywhere
the owner would do well to call on
McCray who is hard working colored
man, and not one to conceal . crime.
McCray is anxious to find the owner.
He says the negro when invited to 60
into the house declined, said he did
not have time, and went off saying that
when he returned for his horse and
buggy would pay all expense.

Wounds, Bruises and Burns.

BY applying an antiseptic dressing
to sounds. bruises, burns and like in

may be healed without maturation and

est discovery and triumph OF modern
surgery. Chamberlain's Pain Balm
acts on this same principle. 1t is an
antiseptie and when applied to such IN
juries, causes them to heal very quick
