and perhaps in some places better
than it was before the storm.
After all is said and done, there is,
we believe, really only one solution
to the problem of the beach protec-
ton and that is the use of well con-
structed bulkheads of creosoted tim
Der. In places it may be possible to
use stopping beach and thus grad
ually break the force of the waves
during storms, but where the waves
have already eroded the bank to any
considerable extent, the bulkhead
would seem to be the sure method of
defense from the storms of the future.
We are inclined also to disbelieve
the statement often made that the ex-
pense is too great to be borne. There
ic no property in this part of the
country so valuable as the beach
property. We can hardly see how
any prope 'ty holder who sees his
beach lot being gradually crumbled
away by successive storms can do.
other than to build a bulkhead to
protect it.-Gulfport Herald.

HoPEFUlNEsS FOR NATCHEZ.

Just now two things stand out prom
inently before the citizens of Natchez,
the Mississippi-West and the pack
ing plant; both are feasible and easily
within our reach. There is little
doubt that, if submitted to a vote, the
issuance of the bonds to insure the
coming of the railroad will be author
lied by more than the requisite ma
jority. Steps in that direction should
be taken at an early date. 1t is also
reasonably certain that the money
leeded to establish the packing plant
will be subscribed; and as David War
field says, Times shall be better in
Natchez. The city will continue it's
healthy growth in spite of thechang-
ed conditions in the matter of cotton
culture. What is wanted is a spirit
OF hopefulness and not mere retro.
spection over the so-called good times
Of the past never to return. Looking
and thinking of the past is good
enough, but we must remember that
the future is partly IN our hands, and
that lamentations, no matter how elo-
quently expressed, do not help pay
expenses.-Natchez News.

very small and unimportant fraction
of time, and because of that idea most
people waste good many III the
course of day. Yet think what can
be done in the short space of a min

In a minute the average pedestrian

er, because the Ohio river shows a
large traffic even under present cor
ditions. At cost of 100000 the
Ohio river could be given a depth of
nine feet the year round The Pres
ident thinks the Ohio project should
be well underway before other i'm
provements are inaugurated. This
does not please the upper sections Of
the Mississippi river, and yet there is
good deal of common sense in it.
The President would scarcely favor
the opening of the Ohio because of its
coal traffic and at the same time OPP
pose the opening of Alabama rivers
that would, too, become great coal car
riers. The opening of the coal-carry-
ing rivers in this state would, however
be light task. For one-tenth of the
sum needed in the opening of the
Ohio, the Warrior could be opened to
and through the coal districts of this
state, and on doubt 1t will be. The
Warrior and the Ohio will both be
needed when the Panama canal is
opened, and both should IL possible,
be opened by or before the oceans are
linked together at Panama.-Age-

HOW BEAUTIFUL.

Did you ever notice how really
beautiful gum chewing makes a girl
appear? Take her de facto, and gaz-
ing steadily, one can not find a more
ideal picture. With a sharp click!
clack! her teeth, so white and pearly,
are clashhing together as, with cowish
glee, she masticates her cud. Then
too, one can note her health tinted
well-rounded cheeks as they grow
little more rotund, through the ma
terial assistance of a big hunk" of
gum. And really, who can imagine a
fairer spectacle than that of her dain-
ty upturned nose, as it gently rises
and falls in wave-like fluctuations
over the abysmal depths revealed at
each pressure against the mass? Oh.

HIS WAY OF DOING THINGS,

After having inoculated President
Taft with the Central bank idea OF,
a reformed financial system, 1t is an
nounced that Senator Aldrich hcscl
dropped it. 1t is so stated by( the
Globe-Democrat Washington cores
pendent, who says that in the address
Aldrich will deliver before the Chica-
go and other boards of trade, he will
confine his remarks to a report of
the work of his monetary commission.
Usually these nostrums are tried
out on the dog But Aldrich seems to
nave reversed the custom-he passed
his lemon to the public through the
president.-Vicksburg Herald.

REGRETTABLE, INDEED.

1t is with profound regret that it
has to be said that in Mississippi the
Lombroso theory, that criminals must
be regarded as mentally diseased, has
failed to attract that attention that
it should have.
1t is sad fact, and one of
too frequent occurrence, that Missis-
sippi herds her youthful first offend
ers with hardened criminals, and, if
reports be true, makes little distinc-
ton between the races while serving
their sentences. The bar against So
cial equality is let down under prison
rules.
What hope is there for reformation
so long as the state continues in the
business of manufacturing hardened
criminals out of her Juvenile first Of
fenders?--Laurel Ledger

SOLARY OF THE GOVERNOR.

The most important office in the
state and the most difficult one to
I'LL is that of the governor. Yet, con-
gressmen and senators receive a sala-
ry OF $4,000 year in excess of the
governor. This should not be. The
salary of the governor is too small,
and it should be advanced to at least
the amount the congressman receive,
$1,000 a year. Any man who is COM
petent to fill the office Of chief execu-
tive Is entitled to and deserving of a
salary that large, for he can earn it
otherwise the brains necessary
to hold the office, the dignity of the
position, the honesty that is essential,
demands salary in keeping with
the position, and it certainly is not
now. OF course some little fellow
who is not worth much of salary
anywhere will say, well if a man
does not want to serve the state at
the present salary, he does not have
to, and there are plenty who will"
Yes, that may be true, but there is
no reason why the state should be
made to suffer because some incom-
petent fellow will take the office at
the present insignificant salary

way. as the railroads now do, and
the impudent small craft will be
starved and run out by cut rates, and
the government will have built great
waterway channels for corporate
greed to travel through.
Freight rates and passenger rates
should be made by the government.
This power should be plain, absolute
and unquestioned. There should in
the beginning be no discrimination be.
tween towns with or without railroad
connection. The rates should be on
the basis of certain reasonable charg-
es for loading freight of different
character, and once loaded there
should be no discrimination for long
and short hauls; it should all be by
the mile, just as passenger rates are
by the mile; and all this fallacy of
long and short hauls, which is entirely
a cheat and a swindle, should be
wiped out.
Once the rights of the people are
carefully and jealousy safeguarded.
then the work cannot proceed too fast
or go too far and the government
can afford and we'll afford to spend
billions of dollars for the improve
ment of the waterways of all the
rivers that can with any reasonable
cost be made navigable.
Mr.. Taft wants the Ohio improved
first. Mr.. Taft sank some seventy
five per cent in our estimation when
he had the brazenness, simply be-
cause of his position of power, to
come out and demand the improve
ment of his own river first. He is
really a smaller man than We thought
him to be. But Congress being Re-
publican, and its majority being made
I'D of Northern and Eastern men, will
proceed along like lines. We cannot
suppose that individual congressman
will be any broader or less selfish
than the president is. So the Ohio
and other Northern rivers will be i'm
proved first; and when they have had
the first feed from Uuncle Sans fest
al board, the South will get the
crumbs.
That is, so far as it relates to small
er streams; such as the Tennessee,
the Alabama, etc. But the Missis-
sippi, the great Father of Waters, is
necessary to all sections and no mar
row, selfish craftsmanship can dwarf
its usefulness or Importance. Illinois,
Indiana, Ohio and other states of the
West and middle West, need the
Mississippi In their business; hence
the Mississippi cannot be ignored or
overlooked, or its improvement much
longer postponed.
1t is big question. And as Sea-
tor Lorimer said in his New Orleans
speech, you might write or talk ABOUT
it all day or for a week, and then
leave some of the most important
features untouched. To the embryo
statesman, to the student of current
events, to the young man who wants
to keep up with public thought and
purpose, it is question wei
worth reading and studying; for like
the tariff, it has many ramifications
and more or less local difficulties and
mental policy that will develop and
grow with the years. 1t were well,
therefore, to start now and keep up
with it as it grows.
