Governor Conner, of Alabama,
has issued an ultimatum to the rail
roads in which he says:
My statement Of Aug. 81 remains
in full force, and the call viii be
made about Oct. Z, unless the re-
duced rates are sooner made effect
i've by the Louisville and Nashville;
Nashville, Chattanooga and st.
Louis, and Central of Georgia rail-
roads. -
The Governor calls attention to
the fact that in Georgia and Arkan-
sas the railroads have complied with
the orders Of the railroad commits
sions and put the reduced rates in
to effect, but those States do not
seem to have federal judges who are
so bloated with their own import
ance and as craving Of overWeening
authority as Judge Jones Of Ala
bama. The assembling Of the legis-
lature Of that State may be preg-
nant Of trouble for it is sure 70
enact drastic statutes on the subject
for which it is called and Governor
Conner, in self respect, viii be com
PEELED to enforce them with all the
power at his command, which
means ultimately the State organi-
zation Of the National Guard Great
responsibility in this emergency is
resting upon Judge Jones, but that
/ is exactly the noteriety he seeks.

Columbus Votes the Bonds.
ALL DRUGGISTS.

The special election at Columbus
Monday. on the proposition to issue
$50, 900 Of bonds for right-of-way
and depot purposes Of the Column
bus, Memphis q Pensacola railroad
was carried in the affirmative by
SIG to 80, practically a unanimous
vote. This assures a hearty coop
Grafton Of Columbus interests and
those Of Pickensville to the south
where a similar election and result
were obtained few weeks ago.
The next movement on the board
is that Of Okolona who has present
ed a petition signed by three fourths
Of the citizens and taxpayers Of
that town, asking the Board Of Al
dermen to order an election to vote
similar aid to the amount Of $50,
600, in which they guarantee the
right-of-way 10 a point within six
miles Of Aberdeen SO far as mu-
nicipaI aid is concerned the con-
summation Of the Okol0na prOpo-
sition win have removed the last
obstacle in this immediate vicinity,
the only other problem remaining
being that Of securing rights-of-way
through the country districts. There
has been little trouble on that score
from PickensvilIe to Columbus and
from that city to the Buttahatchie
river in Monroe county. From that
point to Aberdeen President Rey-
nolds reports that the real estate
owners have not responded with
/ generosity commensurate with the
great benefits that a railroad would
confer upon them in opening mar
kets and enhancing the value Of all
their properties. Probably they will
be more prompt and liberal now
that the prospects OF the enterprise
are Frightening at every step.
From Aberdeen to Pickensville the
route traverses Tombigbee, valley
very heavily mbered with pine and
hardwoods, which will be still more
valuable after the timber has been
cut from the lands. Below Pickens-
Vile it enters and passes through
the fine prairie section of West
Alabama, noted for its adaptability
to alfalfa and kindred crops; thence
southwark through another mex
haustible and as yet unexplored re-
gion Of hardwood timber lands. For
native resources and as a route from
the graineries of the West to the
| Gulf this line viii only be equalled
by the Yazoo and Mississippi of the
Illinois Central system, east of the
Mississippi river, and will easily
, comprise one of the most valuable
trunk lines in the Southern States.
The field between Aberdeen and
Okolona is now occupied by can
vassers for rights-of-way, and Pres
dent II. Z. Reynolds says that it is
only a question of assem- bling forces
of teams and laborers when work
will be resumed.

Gale entertainment in OkolOna last
week the Messenger pays the follow
ing compliment to one of Aber-
deem s talented and favorite girls,
who participated in the programme;
THE major portion of the pro-
gramme was the recital of Miss
Anne Gilleylen, of Aberdeen and
she met the expectations of her
friends by the rendition Of List
and Schubert in a way never sur
passed in Okolona. In the Two
Larks she reached the highest point
of perfection and swayed the audi
ence like a true master and as the
last note was reached round after
round of applause indicated the
highest enthusiasm. Her playing
Of Lists Rhapsodie 3, won immed-
late interest and held the audience
in rapt attention to the end. Those
who missed this recital lost a rare
musical treat. 1t is to be hoped
that Miss Gilleylen will again honor
our little city with her presence. "

Census Ginners Report.

The census bureau at Washington
on Wednesday announced the re-
suit of the ginning canvasses for the
entire cotton belt, except 80 coun-
ties, to September %, to be l .430.-
265, as compared ,, O57, 283 in 1906,
and 1855, 716 for 1905. The 95
counties that failed to report by
wire reported last year 100000
bales to Sept. %.
The condition : report by the
Agricultural Department announced
ST. on September %, as compared
to 72.7 August %, and lie a year
ago. The Mississippi condition was
50 for this year and y at same date
last year.
The ginners' report was some
what larger than expected by the
trade and had the effect of lower
ing quotations by % points.
The postmasters all over the coun-
try began Tuesday morning the
weighing Of all mail matter handled
by them which continues through
out the month of October, and will
also be done on the railroads and
steamboats, at the same time. This
is for obtaining basis for contracts
for carrying the mails and to ascer-
tain the amount of each class Of
matter that is being transmitted.
With each succeeding visit to the
Peoples Oil Mill and Fertilizer
Works one becomes more interested
in the details of each department
and still more impressed with the
wonderful machinery and vastness
of the plant. 1t is like a city of
machines each a unit in its own
peculiar functions to perform, all
covering several acres of ground and
converging to the common point Of
extracting the oil from the seed. 1t
is an immense institution.

LAYING OF CORNER STONE
Three Committees Will Meet Today to Decide Upon
the PROGRAM.

City Council: Aldermen Childers,
Borum and Furlow.
County Commissioners: Secretary
Thomas, Commissioner Ray.
Board of Trade: President Sheffield,
Mess. Ansley, Clark and Gamble.
4 These three committees will meet to-
day, at 2:30 p. m. at the office of County
Commissioners to consider the prepare
ton of a program for the laying of the
corner stone of the Agricultural College
of the Third District.
The initiative for a proper celebra-
ton of the corner stone laying, the
making of it an event worthy of the
occasion, came from the Americas
Board of Trade. The city and the
county have appointed committees at
the request of the Board of Trade, and
these three will today decide whether
there is sufficient time in which to pre-
pare suitable program and if so what
the nature of the program shall be.
1t is probable that the corner stone
laying could be held off for another
