Southern Commercial Congress.

Washington, Dec 7.-Promin-
snt men representing the entire South
opened in Washington today by
the Southern Commercial Congress,
and which will extend it's sessions
through tomorrow. The new Will
ard auditorium is the scene of the
important gathering of Dixie's de-
voted adherents, and the congress,
having the endorsement of President
Roosevelt and cabinet members, is
certain to be of interest to the en-
TIRE country.
Its purpose is to arrange for prac-
teal exploitation in the north, east
and west, of the natural resources of
the entire South. Among the means
to be employed for this exploitation
is the gathering of reliable statis-
tics through records at Washington,
on the agricultural, mineral, lumber
ing and commercial interests of the
south. These statistics will be pre-
sented to the various commercial
bodies and especially to large con-
ventions held in other parts Of the
country.

Lennon Anxious for County Seat,

Lennon Anxious for County Seat.
Pierre, S. D., Dec. 4.-The people
of Lennon are anxious to begin
the organization of Perkins county
but no action will likely be taken
until Harding county is ready to
proceed, and the Lemmonites are
working up the petition for their
neighborhood county. c. e. Lem
mon, Logan Berry and others from
the new town were in this city
yesterday looking up the matter, and
went on to Belle Fourche, and the
country north of that place, with
the hope of getting back in a few
days with the required petition to
put the machinery of organization
into motion for both the new coun-
ties. The fight for county seat in
Perkins county, is Lennon against
the field, with the towns of Meadow,
Bison, Dawson and others are want
ing the honor farther south in the
county. The chances are favorable
to Lennon unless the different COM
peting points get together on one
place. In Harding county, Camp
Crook appears to have the lead, al
though Harding and one or two 9TH
er places are showing signs of MAX
ing try for the honor.

system of the limited States. 1t is
a big subject and will require care

Next weeks conventions Of the

sion. An exceptionally large APP

Improvement is confidently expected
by the friends of such proposals.
There is hardly member of con-
gresS from any part of the country
who has not in his district one or
more navigable streams and it is
safe to assume that every effort pos
sible will be put forth this winter
to secure as large a general appro-
priation as possible. There is no
election ahead now and for that rea-
son there will be no need of fearing
that the people will cry extravaganza
and the bill is going to be big
one, if the information that knowing
ones have given is correct, and judg-
ing from present prospects every
steam in the country is going to be-
come navigable before the next SEES
sion of congress is over.
Another noticeable feature in con-
nection with the approaching ses-
sion is that very large number of
men-democrats and republicans
alike-failed of denomination and
these are going to put in some good
work for their people before they
give up their seats. There are many
cases on record where men have been
side-tracked for time and later
returned to congress, and some of
those who failed to be reelected take
that view of the situation. Instead
of giving up and saying there's no
use as they will soon be cut any
way, the majority of the unfortunate
fellows are looking at the matter
optimistically and hoping that in the
ever-changing political game they
may come to the front. For that rea-
son they are going to exert them
selves more than ever to make good
during their last days.

This gives you full pint of better

a bad cough in twenty-four hours. The
cost is as follows: Pinex (21b or,

about four cents. This cost, as com
pared with "ready-made" syrup, is ex-
tremely low.
Care should be taken to use the in

BUSINESS HAS BEEN LARGE.

Paderewski is coming to Richmond,
to give his only recital here Wednes-
day evening. He is rapidly nearing
the end of one of the greatest tours he
ever undertook in this country. On
one of his early tours he played one
hundred and twenty times, and this
year he will play about one hundred
times. His tour this year has been a
matter of amazement for all who are
interested in the theatrical and mu-
steal business. Coming in a season Of
acute financial depression, it was
thought that he would feel the effects
of the economical wave which was
sweeping over the country, and would
suffer accordingly. His experience
simply shows that no matter how
tight money may be, when the pub
lie wants anything, it will find some
way in which to get the price. Pad
erewskis season began in Bridgeport.
Conn. on the 2Sth of last October. and
he will have given when he reaches
Richmond. about ninety concerts. In
only two instances have the receipts
fallen below the records of the past.
This applies, of course, to the cities
where he has appeared in former years.
In New York, he gave three recitals
to the utmost capacity of Carnegie
hall. Two capacity audiences in Bos-
ton, two in Chicago, two in Philadel-
phia and two in St. Louis. showed that
in the larger cities, the desire to hear
him was as keen as ever and this in
the face of one of the busiest musical
seasons this country has ever known.
In the smaller cities capacity has been
the rule. In the West. Northwest.
Southwest and along the Pacific coast,
Paderewski, during the one month of
February and early March. gave be-
tween twenty and thirty concerts, and
all records were broken. An idea Of
the business that he has done is shown
by the Los Angeles concert, where the
gross receipts were just fifty-one dol
lars less than six thousand.
Moreover. Paderewski, has never
given greater satisfaction with his
playing. That he should receive no
unfavorable criticism is not to be ex-
pected, but the vast number of critical
