via Natchitoches aud the mouth of
Cane river opposite Colfax to Alex
andria. Also we have copy oi
the Natchitoches Times of March

ticuIars as to the. proposed enter
prise:
A quiet meeting was held some
time since by +. St. Anne Prud-
holnme, Harley A. w. Howeott
aud Whitcomb b. Stafford, Of the
Valley Trading Co. Lid, in their
Office in the Masonic building Oh
Second street. to promote a new
railroad for Natchitoches.
John Barlow of this city was in
itiated into the scheme and phoned
Capt c. FL. Teal, of Colfax, who,
with Joel M. Durham of that place,
came up and enthusiastically shout
ed for the plan.
Tandy K. Giddens, the mayor
of Campti, was the next to become
enthused over the plan and at once
got into correspondence with the
Sibley, Lake Bistineau & Southern
Railroad, who appear anxious to
get in.

Der man of Homer, has promised
to assist. l.. Seiss, the well known
real estate man of Alexandria, is
boosting the scheme and is to place
the plan before the city council OF
that city. Roden d. Gilmore, the

TIL. Southern Naval stations. :

in Southern naval circles by an
order from President Roosevelt on
the eve of his retiring from Office,
ordering that the naval stations mt
New Orleaps and Pensacola be
closed. This order raised great
protest from the commercial in
terests of the entire South, and "a
united protest of the Representa-
t;ves and Senators was at once made
to Mr.. Taft, the incoming Presi-
dent, with the result that the
Roosevelt order was rescinded. 1t
developes on investigation that
President Roosevelt signed the or
Ter without knowing it's import,
and the prospect is fair that the
matter will have a satisfactory adj
justment.
A Washington dispatch of March
s, says: Senator S. ID. McEnery,
member Of the Naval Affairs Com
mit,ee IF the Senate, aud through
whose efforts the recent appropria-
ton for the Naval Station was OBJ
tanned, said last night, upon his re-
turn from Washington, that be be-
lieved the future of the New Or
leans Naval Station was definitely
settled yesterday when President
Roosevelt's order closing the sta
ton was revoked by President
Taft.
Il don't believe we'll ever hear
of Another order closing the sta
ton" said Senator McEnery. "As
has been stated, President Roose-
welt told Senator Foster that he
did not know he was signing an
order to close the station on the
night of March 3. The matter had
been put up to him by Secretary
Newberry, and he signed the order
without knowing that he was doing
SO.
1--WE asked him next morning why
not revoke the order, but he said
he did not like to do that, SO we
took the matter to President Taft.
The Louisiana delegation called
on him, and be said he would con-
slider the matter revoking the or
der and give his answer at 3 p. m
to-day.
at is significant that the order
of suspension was issued before
that hour. l believe that he had
made up his mind to revoke the
order, but delayed out of respect
to Mr.. Roosevelt"
rs there danger of the Advisory
Board recommending that the sta
ton be- closed?." Senator Nc
Emery was asked.
II do not believe we will ever
bear of any such action. They
you'd be afraid of a congressional
investigation. That is matter
that | may bring up at the special
session of Congress. 1 want to find
out why the Navy Department di1
verted the machinery from this
station. If anything comes up
about closing the New Orleans Sta
ton, this investigation will certain
ly be made.
Congress is not very hostile to
the New Orleans Naval Station.
This was shown by the fact that an
appropriation of S45, 900 was made
Notwithstanding no estimates for
this station were furnished. This
appropriation could have been
ruled out if point of order had
been raised, but no such thing was
done. The trouble has been with
the bureaus"
Senator McEnery said last night
that the only matter affecting Lou
isiana likely to come up at the
special session will be the sugar

Youngest Member OF The Legislature

Clarence p. Newton, the
youngest member of the legisla-
ture from Lonoke county, is a
country editor. Here is some of
his philosophy which has gone
into our scrap book:
"Life's short, too short to
waste; that's why | must keep
busy. I'd rather it wasn't so
fleeing. wish we lived to sew
en- hundred instead of seventy,
but we don't. Then | must keep
busy-thinking, loving, working,
resting-but being human,
must dream a little, hate some,
idle occasioally and dissipate a
bit; but it's my constant effort to
put into each day more Of
thought and less of dreams, more
of love and less of hate, more Of
work and less of idleness, more
of rest, less Of waste. Thus | can
do my duty as | see it, and be
helpful to my fellow-mortals. |
would not be a professional
good man." but even if | do
have to use all of the daylight
between Sundays to make liv-
ing, | can be helpful to the hum
blest and neglectful to none, and
then be sure of recompense, for
the divinest joy | can know be.
fore Heaven, comes in the wake
of service to others. | know
enough of the worlds way not
to expect the thorns Of ingrati-
tude while drinking in the sweet
fragrance of the roses that nod to
me as tread a crooked path
through the garden of life, for ]
already know what it is to be
misapprehended by my own best
friends, criticised by some for my
enacted sympathy for others, be-
trayed by few in whom | trust
cd and rejected by some whom |
proffered help, bu! these thistles
only heighten the beauty and
fragrance of the flowers of love
and worth. All will come out
right, for most mortals mean we'll
