The Aberdeen * Tombigbee Valley
Railroad.

We are reliably informed that work
on the Aberdeen & Tombigbee Val
lev Railroad will be resumed on or
before January LIST, 1909, and that the
construction work will be completed
within eight months from that time.
A letter from the president, Mr..
Hamilton E. Reynolds, who has been
busy in the money centers, financing
the enterprise. has been received by
one of our prominent business men
to that effect The deal, as best we
could get onto it, was consummated
with Western capitalists. and the road
will be built from Okolona, through
Aberdeen, Columbus and TO a point
some u miles beyond Pickensville to
Allisville, Ala.
President Reynolds and the con-
struction gang of workmen, accord
ing To the letter, will reach Aberdeen
some time this week, and grading of
the road bed win begin in, possibly,
less than fifteen days. This news was
received with much qualification by
people of Aberdeen, as it will be by
all those along the line of the propos-
ed road. The enterprise having been
in prospect for a year or more has
imbued us all with the idea that it is
a necessity to the growth and life of
the town, and the hearty co-opera-
ton of all the people along the pro-
posed route is with Mr.. Reynolds in
the early completion of the pro-
iect.

must bear in mind that you are a

are that much in the correlation of
all things that pertain to human
advancement and happiness, and,
unless you can broaden what little
there may be in you of the divine
effluvium to bless yourself and the
balance of mankind, put a lock up
on your evil desires and be mum "
and "inanimate. =" The world is
full of kickers-eyery whit as prac-

the clogs in the wheels of progress to
all the noble and grand activities
Of life; to all the industrial and

suffers for and would profit by.
II you have the spirit of the kick

Do something for the world, the
civilization and the religion that
has contributed SO much to your
existence. Get in the push with
philanthropists, benefactors and
that army of men and women who
are forging the human race up,
up to that standard of ideals, set
by the lowly Nazarene and that
have made civilization what it is

Obligations to Partisan.

1t is always agreeable for the oc-
cupant of great office to be abe to
confer upon those who supported
him in his political campaign Off
cial position.
1t is perfectly natural for a loyal
and true man TO want to reward his
friends for their goodness to him.
But no real friend has a right to
demand of the governor or any
other officer appointed to public
office because of political service
rendered. And the governor should
not consider anything except the
mans fitness, and the public service.
A public officer is a public trust
and not a private official perquisite.
The office was made for all the
people, and if the governor knows
his duty and will dare to perform
it, he will consider the interest of
the minority who voted against him
and protect it as Facredly as he
viii the majority who supported
him.
any Otnef view OF the duties OF
the Office smacks of robbery, and is
the most dangerous brand of inn
morality in high places.
The cohesive power of public
plumber has caused more dishonesty
in government and failure on the
part of those who held public office
than all other influences com bined.
A man may have his friends in
private life, and he may lavish up
on them his private property, but
he has no right whatever to give to
them the patronage of the people
unless in bestowing ii he is promot-
ing greatest good to the greatest
number. The Issue.

Extension of MuIdon Branch.

What is the matter with the
idea that the business men Of Abr
deem bring influence ~ bear with
the Mobile & Ohio Railroad Com
pany To build branch line from
Muldon to Abbott Miss, a distance
Of less than a dozen miles. This
would connect Aberdeen with a
vast trade. hitherto inaccessi bile
because of intervening creeks and
impossible roads. A branch from
Muldon 10 Abbott would put this
place in direct contact with a couu-
try whose trade would contribute To
our commercial growth, and, at the
same time, reflect wonderful de
velopment To that section Vest
Point realizing that something
equivalent to the above suggestion
may b4 done bv Aberdeen, is mov-
ing heaven and earth To build a
railroad to Houston, and thus fas-
ten upon a trade that Aberdeen
might secure by small investment
Of energy, enterprise and capital
This is an age Of competition
among nations and towns as well
as individuals. Those that con-
trive best thrive best. Aberdeen
now has the opportunity to become
a great city The mbigbee Val
ley railroad, and Tombigbee Boat
line are practical certainties. The
extension of the Aberdeen and
Canton branch is in plausible
prospect, and the extension of the
Muldon branch into the Abbott
territory would throw this town to
a population of more than $4,000 in
less than half a decade. While
the ball rolls, give it impulse to
roll faster. Gentlemen of the
Business League. get busy and solve

NOTICE TO TAX PAYERS.

State of Mississippi, Monroe County
BY reference to sections 4314 and
1915, page 1879, Annotated Code OF
Mississippi, 1906. it will be seen that
all taxes remaining unpaid on the
18th day of December, 1905, are con-
sidered by law to be delinquent and
such taxes can after that date be col
leeted by distress, etc. Notice is
therefore given that the above Sec
tions will be strictly complied with.

Aberdeen and the Boat Line.

The clipping below, from the
Fulton News, viii give a slight idea
of the work being done by Mr.. J.
J. Mcintyre to advance a govern
ment appropriation for making the
Tombigbee river navigable to Walk
ers Bridge. Mr. Mcintyre is rep
resenting the Aberdeen Business
League, and is meeting with phe-
nominal success in securing data
to put behind the success Of the
project. At last accounts he had
secured the signatures of more than
GAO planters and business men
pledging cooperation in turning
their products into the Aberdeen
market. In addition to these
pledges, Mr.. Mcintyre has secured
a vast list Of tonnage that rightful-
ly should and would pass up and
down this river, if only the chan
mel were opened and the boat line
put on. Both of the above are GER
tainties, for the boat is already be
ing constructed, and the data to be
submitted to Congress, through Hon.
z. s. Gambler, who is very much
interested in opening the river, will
bring the adequate appropriation
for opening the channel. Now, let
Aberdeen get busy in other ways.
Her neighbors are reaching out for
the trade that rightfully belongs to
this place by the foreordination
of nature. The Tombigbee river
was created by God, and the terri
tory drained by it is in the fixed
ness of things tributary to Aber-
deem. We have only to do our
part to fasten it bat the balance
of the world is after it also. No
sooner than the Business League of
Aberdeen launched the boat enter
prise than did Tupelo, a competer
for this trade, organize a trolly line
from Fulton to that town. We do
not blame Tupelo. She did right.
This trade is the backbone of her
commercial life. If she lets Aber-
deem turn her natural advantages
to account and claim what is hers
without a struggle, Tupelo would
be a dead community indeed. But
80 far az the Itawamba trade is con
cerned, God intended it to come to
Aberdeen, if not, He would not
have ehanneled the Tombigbee from
this point into that section. Every
loyal citizen of Aberdeen will not
only lend his aid to the success of
the boat line, but will do every
other right thing to make Aberdeen
what she ought to be, the largest
town in north Mississippi.
Mr.. John J. Mcintyre represent
ing She Business Men s League, of
Aberdeen was here last week getting
an estimate of the tonnage to be
carried by boats up and down the
upper Tombigbee. We are quite
sure the tonnage viii justify the
cost of preparing for and running
the boat, and wish he could have
seen every man on both sides of
the river.-Fulton News.
