DEATH OF HARRIS REVlVES
 LITERATURE OF SOUTH

From the Knoxville Sentinel.
 The lamented death of Joel Chandler Harris has revived the interest in South ern literature. When little more than a year ago the announcement of new Southern literary magazine with Joei Chandler Harris as the guiding hand, was made, it evoked deep interest throughout the country. Not merely for sectional reasons and through local pride, the south needs a representative literary magazine Speoulating upon the success of such a magazine, ground for encour- agement may be found in noting the or igin and history of the old Southern Lit erary Messenger.
 Of ante-bellum southern magazines, the Messenger was the most widely known and the longest lived. It's usefulness and honorable career covered a period of 90 years, ending only with the civil war. Its originator was Thomas w. White, a man of proved business sagacity. Its first regular editor was Edgar Allan Poe, an cratic spirit, but a brilliant man of letters.
 A native of Virginia, White had been printer in Boston. While there, he was greatly impressed with the liter ary spirit of his temporary home With enlarged ideas. practical sense and sec- tional pride. it was natural that he should contemplate establishing in Vir- ginia a publication which would do for his state and section what the North American Review was doing for New England and Knickerbocker's for New
The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-11-01

' ofk
 At the same time there was a prase- worthy ambition on the part of some southern cities to be reckoned focus of literary influence. In South Car olina, Charleston had made various at- tempts to establish unquestiopablX a. po- sition of pre-eminence in this regard. There was failure, despite the efforts of Stephen Elliott, Hugh Swinton, Legare, and William Gilmore Simms. In Ken lucky Louisville had a newspaper, the Journal, under the masterly guidance of George D. Prentice, which made that city a competitor for literary distinction. New Orleans was not without aspirations in the same field.
 With Whites business aeumen and Poe's literary accomplishments, the Mes senger leaped at once to a front rank among American magazines. While pub lished in the south, its spirit was broadly national, rather than narrowly sectional.
 The declared policy, however, unhesi- tatingly expressed a desire to arouse slumbering and uncultivated talents among southern writers. The appeal was for stories, sketches, and articles true to life and racy of the soil. The protest was against a slavish imitation of England's models. At the same time the magazine urged its southern con Aituency to appre- ciate the best efforts ot American litera- ture, not without entertaining a pride in the performance of southern writers. It was not until the signs pointed unmis- takably to sectional strife that the man. agement called for only homemade, purely southern articles" and thus nar- rowed the field and attenuated the quail ity of the Messenger.

north bank road has just been COM
pleted by H. NJ. Adams, general pas
senger and freight agent, for the pur-
pose of looking at the country tribu-
tary to the line, says the Oregon Daily
Journal The railroad is in stage OF
half completion and progress for some
time will be rearded by the building
OF tunnels and bridges. The entire
road will be one of remarkably low

Track Is laid for a distance of 25
miles east from Pasco. The line fol-
lows the Snake river to Snake River
junction, a distance of $50 miles from
Portland, and to this point the north
bank roads maximum grade is only
two-tenths of one per cent. Beyond
that the grade to Spokane is never
greater than four-tenths Of one per
cent. The road will be completed
from Portland to Cheney about next
January.
Building eastward from the Snake
river the line follows Devils canyon
to Kahlotus, where it passes through
a 10OO-foot tunnel under a mountain
and comes out at Kahlotus lake. This
lake in high water seasons partially
floods the town, and the railroad COM
pany is constructing a permanent ditch
through the tunnel. and will drain the
lake on a grade that will lower its
normal surface four feet.
From Kahlotus the road follows the
Washtucna coulee to a point opposite
Hooper, thence east and north to Spo-
kane. The grade for 100 miles north
east from Page is nearly completed.
The road crosses the o. r. & y. line
overhead at a point near Washtucna,
and also has an overhead crossing over
the new main line of the Chicago, Mil
waukee & st. Paul at Rock Creek.
Track is also laid between Cheney
and Rockwell, a distance of 25 miles
From Rockwell to PascO much of the
grade is completed. There a number
of very costly steel viaducts are to be
built in the effort to make the road
a straight line with practically water
level.
The entire line from Pasco to Spo-
kane will be second only to the Co.

This property was sold about a year
ago by Mr.. Leblanc to the Christian

that the conditions were not right for
locating a university in southern
Idaho at this time. the enterprise was
abandoned and the property was sold
by the church people as above stated.
The ranch consists of 100 acres
which is situated on the line of the
Boise valley railroad, between Boise
and Meridian. The railroad passes on
the east and north sides of the tract,
making it especially desirable for su-
burban homes.
1t is the purpose of the purchasers
to subdivide this tract into two and
one-half and five-acre lots and put it
upon the market at once. The plat
will be completed and filed in a few
days and it will be named Ash park
