new for this section. Such things
have not been done recently, and
there is no mistaking the fact that,
business is reviving-that confidence
is being restored-when conservative
business men begin to invest their
money in the lumber industry.
The willingness of the ]. j. Newman
Lumber Company to rebuild its large
plant in Hattiesburg is another healthy
indication of returning prosperity.
The rebuilding of this plant will mean
much for Hattiesburg.
Other mills in the district will
rapidly follow the lead of these larger
ones, and the hum of industry-tEe
music of whirring wheels and divers
whistles will soon be heard on every
side of us.
Get glad. And get busy.
The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1908-06-16

The prestige that such an industry
gives a city is above estimating and
therefore there should be no opposi-
ton to any move made by the city
government to make the tax burden
lighter for this corporation, for they
will still be larger tax payers in our
city through other sources; For in
stance, they own real estate in the
city that will not be included in the
exemption and upon which they will
always pay taxes as loing as they own
the property and then there is the
great industry, owned by the same
people, the Mississippi Central Rail-
road shops, for which they do not ask
exemption. Through the two indus
tries they are large benefactors to our
city and any move that would appear
antagnostic to their interests would
be very unwise at this time.
Viewing the mater from another
point, that of refusing to accede to
their petition in the matter, what
would Hattiesburg gain ?-Nothing.
1t is positively known that unless the
city of Hsttiesburg is sufficiently in
terested in this matter to give some
concessions, that the mill will not be
rebuilt here, but will be moved to some
point along the line of their new road
south of the city and possibly at a
distance where our business houses
could not control the trade and it is
further possible that the extreme south
ern terminus of their line, Scranton,
will get the plant, as strong pressure
with every substantial financial back
ing, is being brought to bear TO gel
the plant at that place. Then again,
if the decision is made to remove they
would loose, not only the pay roll that
comes monthly from that scource. but
by this removal the property now To-
Gated in that territory would shrink
in value until the loss from that
source would be distinctly felt by the
city. There are so many things de.
pendent upon a large population in
our city that VIE must, by all honest
and just means, strive to retain what
we have and work for more. The
question is fairly up to the people of
Hattiesburg and it is only just to as.
sumo that they will measure up to
the true characteristics that have
made of Hattiesburg, the most pro-
gressive city in the state.

The NeDmon Mill.

The mass meeting called by the
Commercial Club, to take place this
afternoon, and to which all citizens are
invited, to discuss the matter of ev-
empting tho J. j. Newman Lumber
Company from taxation of their mill
property in the city of Hattiesburg, is
a wise move on the part of the Club.
The burning of the vast plant of the
Newman Company in our city last
March simply intensified the stagnant
condition of industry in Hattiesburg
and If there were those who did not
properly estimate the importance of
the plant during the time it was run.
ming full time and disbursing money
through all the channels of trade in
the city, they most assuredly. at this
time, feel the loss of that trade. The
uncertainty that has attended the de-
cision of the company in the matter
of rebuilding has made anxious a
number of our substantial business
men who appreciate the worth of such
an industry to our city and now that
the matter has assumed a condition
where Hattiesburg must act to retain
these operations within her borders,
and continue the disbursement of large
amounts of money monthly. it is safe
ly assumed in advance, that the intel.
ligent and conservative citizens of our
progressive city will act in accordance
with their best judgement and which
OF course, is to uphold the Industrial
activities of the city.
Assuming that it is a settled ouestion
that no opposition will be made to the
action of the city government in this
matter. it will be well to reflect q mo-
inent upon the good that has come to
this city in the past from the opera.

Continued from page one.

people of Hattiesburg. He spoke of the
exalted position and said that he want
ed to win on his own merits and was
asking for reelection on this line. His
record was an open book and could
be seen of all men. He had worked
for the material development of this
section and had tried to do ID in a
business way. Mr.. Bowers then enum-
Grated the different appropriations that
he had secured while in congress, the
total amounting to $1,4O0,000. These
included appropriations in Hattiesburg,
Gulfport, Laurel and other places as
well as large amount for rivers and
horbars. He said he wasn't making
any blowing horn" about the appro-
priAtion to cyclone sufferers; that he
had only done what was his duty in
the matter.
In reference to an appropriation for
Leaf river he said he had taken the
matter up just as soon as his atten-
tion was called to it by the citizens of
Hattiesbufg, and he read government
report about Leaf river that was made
in 1897.
Speaking of the great need of rural
routes and their convenience to farm
ers, Mr.. Bowers said he regretted that
the people had shown so little interest
in this important matter; that when
he was elected to congress that there
was only one rural route in this dis
trict; that there were now fifty-one or
fifty-two and that Covington lead all
the other counties of the district in
this respect. He said that he had
caused soil survey of this section and
had worked to Increase the soil sur
vey by skilled experts, that they might
make borings and maps and two more
surveys were to be made. He called
attention to the fact that when an
improper report had been made on
the soil of South Mississippi, he at
once had it corrected SO that this sec
ton would not be done an injustice
Mr.. Bowers also strongly advocated
good roads and had introduced a bill
to have money distributed toward the
making of good roads.
He explained his vote on the differ
ent financial bills and showed that he
stood shoulder to shoulder with the
Mississippi delegation in this matter
and also on the employers liability
bill and the sixteen hour bill. He had
introduced amendment to confer pow
ers of interstate commerce commits
Ession to all pubic service corporations.
Speaking of probation he said there
could not be such a thing as national
prohibition, but he was with the ''drys'
in all movements to ssuppress the IL
quor traffic He had introduced a bill
to have the federal government cease
to issue license In prohibition territory
and to make liquor shipments into pro.
phibition states Illegal; to allow the
different states to conrol in this mat
ter.
