LITTLE PRIVACY AFFORDED

Secretary Root has been anxious ever
since he assumed his present office tc
obtain more room for his department
and ne heartily approves of the stand
taken by The Times in advocacy of all
branches of each department being
housed in one building. Mr.. Root has
discussed the situation with members
of Congress, and he is anxious for leg

OF the State. War. and Navy Building
was constructed it was the intention
that that department should occupy the

CARYVILLE
speciaI 70 La journal.


Caryville, Feb. 1.-THE Geo. E.
Wood Lumber Co. has just completed
new system of water works extend
ing through the entire mill plant. The
pipes are large with a hydrant at con-
venient distances apart so as to throw
stream Of water in any direction IN
case of fire. This company, under the
management of J. c. Anderson, has
done a wonderful work for Caryville.
Commencing with decaying buildings,
poor machinery. and no railroad IA
cilities this plant has grown under its
leadership to one Of the largest mills
in the south.
The railroad from WestviHe, north
west is still stretching itself and get
ting closer to Darlington, soon to join
with the Britain road leading out
from Florala which will open up one
of the finest sections of West Florida,
and develop this beautiful pinery now
almost in it's virgin state.
1t is generally believed here that
the democratic party of Washington
county wish an early primary election
to nominate officers to be voted for
this fall. There has been no Ohlcial
announcements made for office yet.
One of the principal issues to come
before the people is the division OF
this county, and the man who can't
stand for division will hardly be known
as a candidate for representative.
The demands for a new county to be
taken from a portion of Holmes and
Washington is made by men who
have accumulated large interests along
the line of the L. e N. railroad within
the past decade. Many Of the most
prosperous farmers also trade in the
towns on the railroad. While the
county south of the base line natural
ly belongs TO ST. Andrews, north, east
and west bay and the contiguous sec
tions, with the completion of the rail-
road from Chipley to st. Andrews, we
may look for an impetus in immigration
and business never witnessed before,
and the demand will still be greater
for a division of old Washington cOun-
ty.

FURNITURE BEING

FURNITURE co. OFFERING
WoND ERFUL INDUCE,
MENTS TO THE PUBLIC

The Rhodes-Futch-C Collins Furniture
Company is receiving large shipments
of furniture every day, with a view OF
carrying the largest line in Pensa
cola.
Mention was made in these columns
a few days ago that half of the ground
floor of the Southern Hotel had been
rented in addition to the firms pres
ent floor space, and also that they had
engaged a large warehouse on West
Garden street.
This was found inadequate, and an
extension is now being built in the
rear of the present store.
These people are offering special in,
ducements to all persons who are in
the market for furniture, and these
are real inducements too. Just think
Of buying a nice cObbler seat rocker
in cherry or oak for S1.60, and a fine
solid oak. cane bottom chair for so
cents, and a fine hat rack for S4.75.
The Rhodes-Futch-Col people OF
fer terms of the most liberal nature,
for instance, just think of buying a
fine, new celebrated Buck store, by
paying two dollars down and one dol
lar per week. In fact, it is an estab-
lished fact that customers can almost
make their own terms on furniture
and house furnishings at this big
store.

price, so if you need furniture, call
at SO East Garden and look over their
