VIGOROUS
PROTEST
MADE AGAINST THE REMOVAL
OF GOVERNMENT FLEET
Business Men, Merchants and Profes-
sional Men Met Last Tuesday
and Register a Rightful
Protest

Capt O. NJ Hoffman, who has
charge Of this division of the river
Improvement ordered the Govm't
feet removed from the city to Vicls-
burg. Part If the feet was taken
away last week and the remainder
followed this week
When this removal was hrst I.-o-
posed some time ago. a meeting Of
our citizens was held and Representa-
tive Ben O. Humphries was sent to
The meeting of the Mississippi River
Commission at St Louis, to protest
against the removal, and he presented
every reason why the fleet should
remain here in Greenvile. But all
the protest of our citizens and the
hard work Of our Representative
availed nothing before the commits
sion whom Capt, Hoffman must have
hypnotized or exerted some ocult in
fiuence at the psychological move
ment
Last Tuesday Mr.. T. c. Holmes,
president OF the Business Mems
League, called a meeting of the citi-
zeus in general to discuss the removal
The result of the meeting was the
framing of a vigorous protest against
the removal and an earnest appeal
for the return of the fleet, which will
be sent to President Roosevelt ano
the Secretary of War.
This appeal will plainly set forth
the logical reasons why Greenvilie
should be the heaquarters of the fleet.
Freight rates are as cheap to this
point as to Vicksburg. and on the
most important article, coal, the rate
is cheaper to Greenville. The cost
of supplies here is in the same ratio.
Last. but not least, this point is in
the center of this district and in
case of danger the effected points can
be reached a great deal sooner than
If the fleet is kept at Vicksburg where
in any call the pull will be an up one
and long one.
1t is believed that President Roos-
evelt and the Secretary of War will
not fail to see the great value OF this
point as the headquarters for the
Government fleet

SCORES VICTORY

The Cotton Belt Railway System,
has agreed to use every graduate we
can turn out, at a minimum salary of
500 per month, with zoe per hour for
all overtime. Their Vice-President
and General Manager informs us that
there is not a station on their line
today paying less than $50 per month,
including overtime, while some pay as
high as $Ioo per month.
This company has gone to the ex-
pense of extending their train order
wire through our building. giving
our advanced students the opportun
ity of receiving every train order that
passes over the Cotton Belt line.
They also furnish MS with all thci-
telegraph station blanks to be used
while our students are learning.
AS we are the only telegraphy
school in America enjoying such a
great privilege, many will wonder
how we obtained it. The answer is,
our work has been so thorough and
satisfactory, that the Cotton Belt, as
well as other roads, recognized our
ability to turn out practical operators
and station men, thing never before
accomplished in an American school
of telegraphy.
Average time for completing course
is four months Life scholarship,
$45. Write the Tyler Commercial
College, Tyler, Texas. for full partic-
ulars.

FIGHT SEEMS TO
BE SETTLED.
Representative of the Vicksburg &
Greenville Packet Company To-
day Reported that There Will
be No More Conflict of
Steamboat Rates Between
the Two Lines

1t was given out from a reliable
source this morning that the steam
boat fight between the Nowland Line
Of Memphis and the Vicksburg &
Greenville Packet company is now at
an end, and the white dove of peace
will soar above both these well-estab-
llshed and popular steamboat lines
from this time forth The fight has
lasted for some months the steamers
between Vicksburg and Greenville
being largely injured in their trade
no doubt by the running on their
days and schedules OF the Noulana
Line, and on the other hand. there
has not been very much business to
amount to anything for the Nowland
line. From what can be learned of
the final adjustment Of the fight, the
Nowland line will soon operate her
through Memphis steamer, which will
be the great new steamer IS. s.
Brown, but Will not run any local
packet in opposition. or i'll direct
competition with the Greenville
Packet company The result will be
that there will be a greater regular
business for both lines and there will
be a more uniform and respective
rate of freight charges for both. The
local merchants were today notified
that the war of competition between
~
from what can be learned, there is
satisfaction all around. A represen-
tative of the Greenville Packet Com
pany was asked if he would give out
any details of the adjustment of the
matter, and said that there was moth
ing particular that he could give out,
except that the two lines will here
after have a good business in their
respective trades, there will not be
any more of the bitter competition
and rate cutting, and still rates will
be fair and nowise excessive 70 the
shipper and both lines will be enabled
to maintain a living rate, and in no
way injure anyone. The informant
further says that for instance there
was such a difference and misunder-
Standing over the seed rate, that II
was causing misunderstanding all
around, the shippers were uncertain
what to do. and the city was losing
seed business as a result. The Green
vile Packet Company is running the
palatial steamer Belle of the Bends, >

retain Capt. Gus Nimtz as master,
and Corneal Watts as superintendent
of the line. The big steamer, IS. 5.
Brown" of the Nowland line, when
she comes South, is promised to be
one of the greatest steamboats, now
floating in Southern waters. There
seems to be ageneral feeling OF salts
fatcion and relief among river men
that this fight is apparently settled to
the best interests of all concerned

DEFECTS OF VISION.


Defects of vision, though they may
be slight, may cause much annoyance,
which usually is in the form OF dull
headache which the physician has
tried in vain to relieve or there may
be feeling of ache in the eyes.
Now, if the trouble is due to strained
vision. our scientific test may uncover
a possible reason, and pair of right
ly fitted glasses bring comfort where
drugs have failed to do any good.
And if you are particular as to how
your eyeglasses look, our new light
weight models of frames will please
you.
