three defendants being under two
years sentence In the penitcntiary, i'm
posed by Judge Walter Neal. In these
out that when the Newbern prohibition
law was first put in operation light
sentences We're imposed so that
fragrant and open violations continued;
SO that finally the Judge determined to
apply the surgeons knife and the
two-year sentences are the result.
Tt is recited IN these cases on appeal
that one minister in New Bern de-
clared amid applause that any man
guilty of violating the prohibition law
SHOULD be tarred. bound to stake
head down and burned" The testimony
of one OF the witnesses as sent up in
the appeals is to the effect that he had
seen more drunkenness in New Bern
in ono day under the prohibition law
than he had seen in q whole month
when there We're open saloons.
The fourth case involving violation
of prohibition laws to be argued Tues
day is State VS.. Bell, from Pitt county,
the defendant being under sentence of
twelve months on the roads. The two

GREAT LAKES TO
GULF OF MEXICO
Scheme to Improve Mississippi
and Cut Canal to the
Lakes.

WASHINGTON, Sept IA tremendous.
concerted and weii-considered effort is 10
ba made ut the approaching session OF
congress to secure the enactment OF leg
islat!on looking to the creation OF a
water route between the Great Lakes
and the Gulf of Mexico. The idea In
cludes not only the Improvement or the
Mississippi! river, but also the opening
OF a ship canal between Lake Michigan
and the mississippi.
The development of such a scheme is
OF vast Importance to the Middle West
and Northwest, particularly, although. in
cidentally. 1t would be of immense benefit
u practically the entire country. Dur
ing the week OF Oct 4 the Lakes to the
Gulf waterways convention Is 10 be held
al Memphis. Tenn. President Roosevelt
will be the principal speaker at the con-
vention and IL is expected that he Will
outline his policy toward the project
which is OF so great Importance to tho
whole Mississippi valley.
1t is the hope of the promoters of the
convention to persuade the president 10
give In his December message to con-
Bress strong endorsement OF the water
way project. II can be said, however.
that what he may do in this respect will
be guided by the opinion of the Inland
Waterway Development commission.
which was created by the president last
srring for the express purpose OF exam
ming into the the-gulf proposi-
ton. The commission, accompanied by
the president, for tbs greater part of the
distance, will inspect the Mississippi river
from st. Paul TO Memphis.
1t is known that, at present, the COM
mission does not favor the immediate
Inauguration OF the project. but 1t is nor
known just what the members Will pro-
pose as an alternative scheme.

Goals having been brought from the

Arrangement of Exhibit.
Arranged upon blocks, in cases at
the front of the booth, are small but
rich specimens of variegated ores, col
lected from points in Virginia along
the Chesapeake and Ohio line, and
upon counter at the rear. extending
the entire width of the booth, pyramids
of other heavier ores are placed.
Probably the rarest of the speci-
mems shown are those of cadma, as
bestos and gold, the two latter from
Buckingham county. while from the
size and appearance Of the iron and
copper ores from Craig and Allegha-
ny counties. it is evident that they
were taken from abundant and rich
veins of these minerals.
Occupying space on each side of the
booth are two especially large and at
tiactive blocks of iron ore, from the
Low Moor Iron Company's mines; one
of brown hematite ore from its Fen
wick Mine in Craig county, and the
other Potts Creek ore from one of
the Low Moor mines in Allegheny
county. These specimens are the larg-
est and probably of the highest per-
centage of any of the iron ore exhibits
at the exposition.
Placed beside specimens of steel ore
in the booth are samples Of manu-
featured chrome steel of the Virginia
Electrolytic Company, whose. plant is
located at Holcomb Rock. Va, while
Iron Conpany's plant are also shown.
