terest in the prospective changes of
ownership in railways of this section
Is conferred in the action to be taken
with reference to the expiration of
the option held on the line of the
Tennessee Central Railroad compa-
ny by the Southern and Illinois Cen

Under its provisions, the Southern
operates the eastern end of the Ten
nessee Central line, while the west
en portion option will be extended
or dropped on the Tennessee Central
line bought at the expiration of the
time the option calls for, it not yet
being definitely known here. In the
opinion of one prominent official OF
the Tennessee Central, the two sys-
TENS will buy the line at the expira-
ton of the option July 1.
''Rumors have been also in circu-

time in their option. While nothing
authoritative can be gained, it is
said in some quarters, that in case
the time of the option be not ex-

HAPPY RESULTS OBTAINED.
by the Use of the New Scalp Anti
septic.

II wouldn't take long to number the
hairs in the heads of some people,
the reason being they haven't many
to number. In most instances, how
ever the fault is their own. A germ
at the root soon plays havoc with the
most luxuriant growth and causes II
to fade and fall out. A remedy for
this has recently been discovered,
called Newbro's Herpicide, that acts
by destroying the germ that does the
damage, besides removing all impuri-
ties from the scalp. In addition it
permits new life and vigor to enter
the scalp. and happy results are sure
to be obtained from its use Try It,

Meanest Man Tells Son to Take Long
Steps and Save His Shoe Leather.

Newark, ~ j., June 9.-"You
must not contract the eXtravagant
habit of taking short steps. my son.
See that you are a good, economical
boy. and take the longest steps you
can. Then you won't recklessly
waste your shoe leather"
This was the amazing PARENTAL ad-
mon!tion given from three to twelve
times a day to the young son of the
champion of all the worlds cham
pion mean men-Henry Eckhard,
formerly of this city who is now be-
ing sued for divorce.
Eckhard, whose present where
abouts are stated to be unknown. by
his wife, the complainant in the di-
vorce suit had a love for economy
which amounted to a passion, accord
ing to the facts appearing from the
litigation.
Short steps Reckless.
The thing which he held in partic-
ular horror was the taking of short
steps That, In Eckhard's view, was
one of the deadliest of the many
deadly sins of extravaganza. ITO
take a short step" Eckhard used to
say. when YOU can take long one,
Is the worst bit of reckless waste
know"
He used to eXpound this doctrine
not only to his wife, but to his son.
/rhe boy was 6 years old The young
ster would look up at his father with
much gravity, listen to the paternal
orders and proceed nearly to do the
splits in his endeavor to be good
economical boy" in his fathers eyes.
Don't you See" Eckhard used de-
mand of his son and wife. during the
days daily exploitation of his theory,
that it is shockingly foolish to take
a lot of short steps? You can take a
long step just as well as a short one
Just figure out how much less your
shoes will be hitting the pavement if
you take a few long steps in the
course of a block instead OF a lot of
short ones.

The Cuban Sugar Crop.

Consul-General James l.. Rogers
Of Havana states that the estimates
on the sugar crop of Cuba have fall
len below 100000 tons, and only
the most optimistic cling to the
hope of that amount Under date of
March 18th he reviews the market
and It's effect on business as follows;
The great majority OF planters
and others vitality interested assert
that $4,000 tons will represent the
possible maximMm and $4,000 tons
the minimum. There is good rea-
son for believing that 100000 tons
is not too low an estimate, for II
Is known that cane cutting has prac-
tlcally ceased in many districts, that
field hands refuse to work on ac-
count OF the impossbility of making
satisfactory wages, and that some
of the mills will stop grinding on
April 1st or thereabouts.
Under the most favorable condl-
tions only about six or seven weeks
OF the grinding season remain, and
Il Is generally stated that by March
10th Il will be possible to estimate
accurately the total volume OF the
crop. The latest statement. which
contains absolute verlfication OF the
great deficiency, shows a falling off
of nearly 40 per cent in the 1908
shipments and stock as compared
with those of 1907 on the similar
date March 1st). II the same ratio
OF loss is maintained the volume Of
the 1895 crop would be somewhat
below 100000 tons.
The effect of this realization OF
the size OF the sugar crop and the
knowledge that there has been lit
tie gain in price to the various pro-
ducers on account OF their financial
necessities has already had a SER
ious effect upon business. and the
revenues of the government are de-
ereasing in sympathy, while many
business men consider the general
outlook uncertain and unpromislng.
The wholesale. merchants say they
are not importing In the usual vol
ume because they have not the mon
ey, and because the country store
keepers are. through caution, refus-
ing to purchase goods. The general
opinion is certainly that. this will be
I bad business year and that 1909
may be worse.

OF the animals found there and In
extraordinary numbers are mice,

minks, fisher, gray wolf, two spe-
cies of foxes, black bear, half a doz-
en- species of cats, several extinct,
one of them a sabertooth tiger,
beaver, hares, an extinct horse, an
Nxtinct peccary, three species of ouI
deer, an animal allied to the musk

istenee Of man was found, neither
his bones nor his implements. These
fossils were accumulated toward the
end of the Pleistocene, which cores

The Capital Journal does not yet
know the result OF the Direct Prl-

the eve OF the battle that whatever

ceive our support.

All readers can see that the Dl-
rent Primary gives the people a
chance 10 weed out some OF the as
pirants for office, and then II any
mistake has been made gives them
another chance at the June election.

Under the old system the ma

MINDS OF THE PEOPLE FOR

They know what are the require

The people seek TO approximate

The able article concludes in
these words:
There lis but one logical and
reasonable thing to do under the
circumstances, and that is for the
Republican national convention az
Chicago to nominate Mr.. Roosevelt
as the choice of the Republican
party for President. II might not
be so logical, but Il would be the
sensible thing for the Democratic
convention to take a similar course.
II Mr.. Roosevelt feels that he can
not consistently accept another NOM
ination, the people will not insist
that he do so. They will, however,
insist that he be on hand when the
time comes for his Inauguration.
Two things only lie in the way of
the denomination of Roosevelt by
the Republican national convention.
One is the unwillingness of the
President to be treated as inconsis-
tent or untrue to his declarations
regarding another term, and the 9TH
er is the hostility, whether open or
secret. OF powerful interests to his
continuance in office. II Is the or
gans OF these interests which in
sist that the President is bound by
his promise not to accept another
nomination, a promise which the
Republican party and the people
have the right to disregard.

As to the Presidents statement
that for him TO again become a can
didate would be TO violate "the
substance" OF the custom referred
TO, the Justice argues that for
Roosevelt to insist upon such a con-

gence of the Republican party and
the electorate OF the nation" And
