A GROWING STATE INSTI
TUITION.

The e'has cause to be- proud
of the splendid success Of the Col
umbus Business College, Columbus.
Miss. This college is the largest
in the entire state. Almost one
hundred Scholarships have been
sold in Columbus alone, and stu-T
dents are in attendance from all
over Mississippi and from other
states. Its location is ideal; Col
umbus is the most beautiful town
in the state, moral, free from the
temptations of the city. The home
of the college is ideal, large, well
ventilated and lighted. finely To-
Gated and equipped. The faculty
is of the strongest, each teacher a
specialist in his line and especially
prepared for his work. In fact,
this is the only business college IN
the state with a corps of expert
specialists.
The system are the latest and the
best, the Byrne. The college Of

irving and investigating its work,
YOU do not find it as claimed, 1t pays
your railroad fare both ways, or it
at any time during course or at
it's completion, you do not find 1t
as advertised, the college will re-
fund every cent Of your tuition.
Furthermore, if one doubts the col

fare or tuition. Could you ask a

WAS BEST EVER.
Great Van Amburg Circus
Pleased--Every Fea-
ture Splendid.

IT it ever comes back to town,
and you have not already seen it,
be sure to go. 1t is without doubt
superior to any circus travelling the
United States.
It is the cleanest, most refined
and up-to-date circus in the world.
There is an absence of grating or
CATERS that is noticeable. The
gentlemen in charge do not carry
that old-time circus swag about
them. They are all neatly dressed,
polite, and look after the individ-
ual comfort of their patrons,
not giving their entire time and
attention to gathering in the sheck-
les.
If the Van Amburg Circus ever
returns to this city it will have to
have two canvasses as large as the
one used yesterday to accommodate
the crowd. At 8 o'clock every re-
served seat was taken, and at 8:15
every seat was taken, the only
available room being on the ground
in front of the seats. The tent
was packed almost to suffication,
and despite the fact that it was too
warm to be comfortable, nobody
left until the last race was finished.
The work of the acrobats alone
was worth tRice the price of adj
1ission.
e finest lot of trained horses
in the United States, the daring
bareback riders, the trapeze and

growing larger and better every
year. It will always be welcome

COTTON IS KING. I"

Referring to cotton, the New
York Herald, q few days since,
had the following intsresting edi.
torial:
Cotton growers, spinners and
manufacturers representing this
and nearly all other countries oi
the industrial world will meet in
Atlanta next week to duscuss con-
ditions governing the growth,
handling and marketing of the
great staple. Foreign manufac-
turers are the largest consumers.
They have made complaint of GER
tain crude methods prevailing here
and the disturbance to the markets
resulting from speculative adven-
turers. Where correction is poss-
ible correction should be made, for
cotton is king"
More truly is cotton king today
than fifty years ago, when first
proclaimed. Then, in consequence
of its ready command over foreign
gold, cotton was hailed as the au-
tocrat which would perpetuate a
e%s
social and economic system. The
old order Of things passed, but the
scepere remand unchanged. More
wheat is consumed and there is
less surplus for export; corn is an
uncertain exportable commodity.
But all. the world looks to Ameri-
GATOR cotton, taking from$300, GOO, :
900 to $4o0, 900, 900 annually. To
protect and develop SO great a
source of material wealth should
be the earnest endeavor of all.

FREE SERVICE GONE AGAIN
Railroad Commission As.
sists the Cumberland
Out of the Hole.

Jackson, Miss, Oct. "a So
luton of the vexed telephone ques-
ton as to free country service was
reached today by the railroad com.
mission. Whether, however, it
will prove satisfactory to the pa
irons of the company and will be
accepted as a final solution of the
trouble, or whether the people will
carry the matter further, remains
to be seen.
The fight has been a hard one
and has been in progress for about
twelve months. The discontinue
ance of the country service was one
of the various reforms or rather
economies in service. which the
Cumberland Company has -been
gradually enforcing. The first
murmur Of complaint came from
the northern part of the delta,
where exchanges were scarce and
where country phones were numer-
Gus. Clarksdale was a sort Of
business center for the whole Sec
ton and the company began cut
ting out the free service with the
Clarksdale exchange. The mat
ter was fought at several Success
i've meetings Of the railroad COM
mission while the primary eledti0n
campaign was at its height. and
the Cumberland after making an
exhaustive inquiry passed an order
requiring the company to establish
free country service on the plans
it had been operating. The COM
pany declined to obey the order of
the commission and ignored it, by
steadily refusing to establish the
free service where new phones were
put in and gradually disoontinuing
same from time to time.
Today the commission, or ma
jority Of it, Messrs. McNair and
Bradley decided to accept the conf
pany's proposition iulieu of grad
uated nnifeags tax on the country
phone. Under this scheme the
country phone will pay for its ex-
change connections according tc
its distance from the exchange.
The fee~beeinswith S cents for the
first ten miles as minimum and
then runs up, and every phone
must pay in proportion to its mile
age.
Commissioner Kincannon voted
against this substitute plan hold
ing that it was an extra charge for
the country service and was an in
crease of just SO much, no matter
how small the fee.
The scheme will be put into
effect however, and its workings
will be watched with interest.

A MEMORABLE EVENT.

While the presence of the Pres
ident, and so many governors, al
the Memphis Waterways Conven.
ton adds greatly to its significance,
the purpose of the gathering is the
feature of real and lasting moment.
The adequate Improvement of the
great river, so that its facilities
of transportation can be utilized to
the full extent of which it is
capable, is question that cannot
be dominated by any accessories to
the end. It is fully worthy of the
enlistment of the chief executive
of a great nation, however exact
ing may be his other engagements.
And this is a truth we may be
sure President Roosevelt will, more
than he has in the past, compre-
hended, when he has returned to
Washing gton-after he has had the
experience of actual contact with
it. In his speech he has gone as
far devoting his services to the
Mississippi river as its most ardent
champion could ask. BY all
means" he says. the Mississippi
river and its tributaries ought to be
utilized to their utmost possibility.
Facilities Of cheap transportation
is as essential in our modern civ
ilizaiion, and we cannot afford any..
longer to neglect the great high
ways which nature has provided us
The nation should nn-
dertake this work"
This is a simple and trite email !
ciaticn of the whole case. II IS
none the less the all sufficient dec
laration of a policy upon one of
the nations greatest aims. Plans
and projects for trying it out will,
as in the past, be committed to the
scientific commissions, with final
report upon commercial value,
cost and methods Of construction,
by the Army Engineers. BY way
of criticism and suggestion to con-
gress the President notes with dis
favor that the national government
has not been based upon definite
and continuous plan." This is
followed by the statement that
'planned and orderly development
is essential to the best use of every
resource, and to our inland water
ways Here we have a repetition
of the fact that officers of the en-
gineer corps, and the river COM
mission have so often appealed up
on-an appeal that has so long
halted at the door of the national
government. Let US trust that
>feiteration by the President will be
of telling, and early effect.
The lower valley regions especi-
ally appreciate the Presidents ap-
proval of the levee feature OF the
river improvement. Moreover .
he saws. as an incident in caring
for the river so that it may become
an efficient camel of transporta-
ton the United States government
should do its full part in levee
building which in the lower reaches
of the river not only give chan
mel for commerce, but will also
give protection to the adjaceut bot
tom lands" This was an ampl-
fication of a declaration at 81.
Iouis for levees. In urging flood
protection per Sc, and not as an IN
dent of Improvement for naviga-
ton, President Roosevelt broke
awav from the national levee doc
trine of the past. The distict
avowal of the departure from SO
hieh a source is indeed a most

oil which had accumulated into a
lake several hundred yards from the
big storage tank Of the Santa Fl
| railroad caught fire yesterday af
ternoon and for a time the big tanl
itself was threatened. The fire start
ed from burning grass along the
railroad, and within a few minutes
the whole southern part of the city
was enveloped in dense smoke. The
flames climbed higher and higher
into the air until it looked like a
real gusher on fire. Station hands
employed peculiar methods to check
the spread of the flames. ROCKS
were thrown into the lake and the
waves produced separated the burn
ing oil from that toward the Dig
tank. Hundreds of people were at
tracted to the spot and watched un-
til the fire was finally eXtinguished.
No damage was done to the railroad,
but it looked like the telephone and
telegraph poles along the road would
be burned.
