MOVEMENT SHOULD BE SUP
PORTED.

Merchants and business men OF
Newport News. whether Or not they
are members OF the Chamber Of Com
merce. should join hands with the
chamber in the fight which is to be
made before the Interstate Commerce
Commission to compel the transporta-
tion lines to put this city on an equa!
footing with other cities similarly
situated.
Everyone to whom the welfare: OF
the city means anything ought to be
interested in this matter, and there
is. no reason why the chamber
should bear the whole burden of the
contest for the city's rights.

IMPROVING THE TOWN.
Necessity for Sewer Systems and Or
er Sanitary Measures.

Upon the healthfulness OF \ city
depends much Of its success and us
growth. Towns that arc not reputed
to be sanitary places are generally
evaded by home-seekers. One Is often
impressed with the fact that in small
towns typhoid and malarial fevers are
often more frequent and afiiict great
er numbers according to population
than in tine large cities. The simple
reason for this is the neglect Of sani-
tary improvement
In the charter Of many towns proVi'
sion for the building OF sewerage sys-
TENS is overlooked. and years and years
elapse before any consideration Is
given to the Importance of providing
a means for draining away the I'M
wholesome increment that accumu-
lates. Then II il found that there 10
q great amount Of red tape before
funds can be raised by taxation or by
voting bonds for the building OF a
sewerage system
Small towns as well as large cities.
generally draw their authority for the
making of public improvements from
the state While nearly all the states
provide for bonding and the raising OF
funds for improvements in the larger
cities and towns. the towns of 5000 or
5000 population are neglected. Win
in the past two years the state OF Ne
braska, realizing the necessity OF the
smaller towns having the privilege OF
voting bonds and making assessments
against property for the building OF
sewerage systems. enacted state law
covering all the points involved. This
law has already been benehcial, O
number of the incorporated villages
and towns having commenced the
building Of sewerage systems.
1t is always we'll when contemplate
ing the building Of sewers to est
mate that the town is likely to grow.
and that a system adequate to give
necessary drainage for town OF $500
would be inadequate for a town twice
the size. and as the town grows the
original plans are found lacking ana
old sewerage lines of little utility, as
they must be replaced by new sys-
TENS. The economic value Of perfect
drainage for a town cannot be over
estimated. The health Of the people
is paramount to all other things, and

tions a town cannot expect to enjoy

| When the Democratic party pro
poses 10 place additional safeguards
around bank deposits. thu American
Bankers Association and other Taft
ladherents declare that the expense

Yet. with this increased detective
force. the Taft boosters take the po-
sitjon that the incentive to defalca-

enhanced.
In other words, those Hnanciera
who hitherto have been held in cheek

HALLOWEEN TRAGEDY
COSTS CHINESE TWO YEARS
Celestial VINO Killed Boy in Tucson Is
Sentenced to Serve Two Years
at Yuma.

TUCSON, January l3.-Two years al
hard labor in the territorial peniten
tiary was the sentence which Don Sue
the Chinese merchant, received in the
district court for killing AnastaciC
Lovato on Hallowe 'en night.
The Chinaman was allowed to plead
guilty to the charge of manslaughter
after a jury had been unable to agree
with the majority in favor Of aequittal
The Chinaman in his defense had
claimed that he had mistaken the muir
dered boy for burglar and had shot
him, supposing that he was trying to
enter his store.
The territory contended that the Chi
naman had killed the young fellow be
cause Of Halloween pranks they had
played on him. The majority of the
jurors, however, appeared to place the
most credence in the story told by the
Chinaman.

cash payment and retiring the clearing

and in less than another month, there
will be no scrip in circulation and
the banks will have currency sufficient
to cash all pay checks.
There was more than enough this
month to meet the payrolls of all OF
the companies and there is more than
enough real money in the banks to
cash every check given by the Old
Dominion, but it would not be wise

CEMENT BLOCKS FOR
NEW PENITENTIARY
Will Abandon Use Of Stone For Con-
struction Of the Territory's
New Prison.

FLORENCE, January 13.-Some
further details were given out yester-
day concerning the new prison and
site. The building will be constructed
of stone as some supposed in the begin
ming. One of the arguments against
Florence as site was that there were
no large quarries nearby. There is,
however, everything needed for a con-
crete building, already on the ground,
except the cement. There is good sand
and gravel and some rock not far away
while excellent water can be had in
abundance at the depth of forty-fve
feet. 1t is believed that a concrete
building will answer the purposes bet
ter than stone building, and as II
will not be a very high structure, only
a minimum of steel reinforcen ent viii
be necessary. The site is well drained
naturally, another point in its favor
A canal runs by the property so there
will be water supply from tha
source if desired and there is plent,

ing by convicts for road aid ballas
