Of the cost of paving.
Work is progressing steadily on

pany at the terminals in this city,
md it is expected that track laying

Traders are at work at various points

At the Thebes emu particularly much
more is being done to prepare for the
bridge connection and for the Iron
Mountain connection north. A en-
CINE and care is expected to arrive
n few days.
The Iron Mountain, it is said, will
put on fast train between Cairo
Ind St, Louis that will beat anything
IN the roads now. The Iron Noun
ain is able to do this because it has
4 level track all the way, while the
Mobile & Ohio and Illinois Central
rave seeep inclines the former as
much as 10 feet to a mile in one
place.
1t is still matter of speculation
rs to what the Iron Mountain and
Cotton Belt will do with their Birds
Point terminal. Report was yester-
lay that the river had stopped cut
ing there and an incline there now
would be safe for many years itnot
or always, the prospect being that
he government revetment work at
ireenfield's will be extended south
to cover Birds Point at an early date.
The railroad terminals there are val
liable and trains must run there If
he two companies named would hold
heir charter This fact is accept
ID as guarantee that Birds Point VIII
rot be abandoned and that an incline
will be re-estabished there in due

count for its survival? How do we
explain its life ii view Of the pass

is but one explanation. The DEM
ocratic party is not an idea or OPP
portunist party; it is not a-party
of expediency nor is it a party of
leaders or organization. It's foun-
dations lie deeper: the democratic
party lives in great and immortal
principles and it draws its life
anew year by year from the hearts
of the people. It's causes may
vary, its leaders may change, but
its foundation-Equal Rights to
all, Special Privileges to none
will endure when the idea and ops
portunist parties, as of abolition

pals, are known no more in the
earth.
So long as men shall seek free
dom; SO long as equality shall
move the hearts Of men; so long

There.
Washington, Nov. 8.-Seere-

a report upon his trip around the
world with especial reference to
conditions in the Philippines. This
he expects to have ready for sub

aVailing himself of the time af-
forded him by his long trip over
the trans-Siberian railway and his
return to America.
The secretary was well pleased
with the situation he found in the
Philippines. The people, he said,
were generally satisfied and pros
pering. An attempt was made to
elicit his views upon the subject
of independence for the achipela-
go, but he made it clear that the
matter was one belond his author
ity to discuss. The school sys-
tenn was working well and theer
was an encouraging development
of general education among the
younger generation. The secre-
tary was particularly pleased
with the development of the jul
dietary, and he spoke in terms of
high praise of the prisons which
he said were worthy of imitation
by some of the most advanced
countries. The army as a whole
was found to be enjoying good

TIE LAsT OF TIE HICKoRIEs


Al warning has been ISSUED BY
the department of agriculture that
America s original stock Of hick
DRY is nearing exhaustion When
The home supply is ont there will
be no foreign sources upon winch
10 draw, SO that the effect upon
our industrial lie will be sharp
and lasting.
This announcement becomes Pc
culiarly significant when it is re-
membered that American cedar
also is fast being depleted and
that the ranks of the chestnut are
growing thinner each year.. A
large manufacturing concern gstl-
mates that not many decades HENCE
commercial cedar will no longeeg
be procurable in this country:
When that time arrives. we shall
have to use pencils encased IN
metal and nj of the trivial yet
universal habits of our daily life
will reflect the result.
So it is with every phase OF this
widespread depletion of natural
resources. Between the forests
and mans every existence there
is an unrecognized but deeply
knitted connection. The destruc-
ton of trees has a definite bear
ing upon every household, wheth-
er in the country or the city.
Every man and woman and
child thus has a direct interest IN
the work of conservation if not
for themselves, certainly for
those to come after them. What
is true of hickory and cedar IS
true in vary degrees Of all tim
Der and of. all resources. What
ever tends to a waste of natures
storehouse is fatal extravaganza
toward all mankind.

more than another railroad. And

which show that the promoters of

declared the speaker, "that of the
more than two million miles of
road in the United States the total
mileage of improved roads of
every type amounts to only about
seven per cent and a large part
of this is in the vicinity of towns
and large cities. We are spending
annually the vast sum of $80,000,-

than 100000 men to improve road
