ALL EYES NOW ON
GREAT NORTHERN
Railroad Circles Are Watching for De
veIopments in the Goodyear
Properties.

The visit of the Great Southern
Lumber Company party to Hatties-
burg yesterday attracted the atten-
ton of local railroad and lumbermen
who are expecting early developments
in the Goodyear properties. While
none of the officials cared to express
themselves about any changes contem-
plated in the management of either the
New Orleans Great Northern railroad
or the allied property, the Great South
ern Lumber Company, it was gem
orally understood that Vice President
II. |, Miller, in charge of the party,
will step into the management of both
companies during the present month,
succeeding President c. w. Goodyear,
who has not been in good health for
some time.
The annual meeting of the direc
tors is booked for Jan. 8, when the
election of Mr.. Miller will probably
take place.
1t is also understood that the New
Orleans Great Northern, under thu
management of Mr.. Miller, will make
several improvements. In addition t.
the Jackson terminals, which will b.
built some time this year, it is salt
the facilities at other points along thu
road will be improved.
No Frisco Deal.

"As two-thirds of the cost of the
proposed auto road from Grants Pass
to Crescent City would be borne by
the state of California, while most
of the benefits in the way of reduced
freight rates would go to the pro-
ducers in the Rogue River valley, it
seems to me that there should be but
one opinion upon the subject. The
distance from Granst Pass to Cres-
cent City is approximately 100
miles. The distance from Crescent
City to the state line near Waldo,
via the Elk creek route, is 55 miles.
This would be California's portion,
covering expensive mountain con-
struction, while Josephine would
have but As miles to build, on easy
grades, and on road bed already

Legal Aspect of Road Law.

should proceed upon the theory that
there is no defect in the law, just

that California may know officially,

United States postoffice department
in the Sunday closing moyemen,
throughout the country. The Sun
day closing of postoffices Is a move
ment in the interests of the clerks
and carriers and it means that thou
sands of men and women who work
seven days out of the week will be al
lowed the seventh day to rest ana
attend church. The Sunday closing
in Ardmore has been indorsed by
nearly everybody in the city. Every
society in the city that took the ques'
ton under advisement at all passed
n resolution favoring the Sunday
closing and placed a copy of the reso'
luton in the hands of Postmaster
Douglas. Two carriers circulated pc
titions after office hours ana while
off duty in the business districts OF
the city and only two men declined
TO sign them and one of those per
sons said he favored it but he made II
a rule of his life to sign no petition
of any description. The movement Is
we'll under way in Ardmore and an or
der from the department may be eX-
pected at any time ordering the of
flee closed on Sunday. However the
department will favor the opening OF
the general delivery window long
enough on Sundays to accommodate ,
the travelling public.
The Sunday closing movement is
one in keeping with the progress OF
the age, it is in keeping with the
demands of labor for shorter hours,
1t is in keeping with the religious
spirit of the twentieth century which |
is crying out against Sunday labor
in the interest of giving every man
and woman an opportunity to atteno .
church. It is in harmony with modern .
methods of doing business on the
principle that the man who has one
day of rest each week does his work |
better than the man who has no rest
at all
The Sunday closing movement has
the Endorsement of the press in ev-
cry state in the union, it has the in
dorsement of the pulpit everywhere
and will result in the revolution of |
working hours for the post
Office employees.

Grace, Grit and Greenbacks. for
Ardmore,

In view of the efforts now being
made for a greater Ardmore and the
indications that the effort will mate
rialize, and all of this effort is for the
material growth and welfare and in
crease of business in general, all OF
which is good and right, the IWayside
Inn Mission, as an humble gospel and
humane instrumentality for the relig-
ious and human welfare of the poor
and needy calls upon the good citi-
zens and city government to recog-
nize and receive its offer to become
city mission for the Christbn,
spiritual and temporal welfare of the
poor children, and mothers of Ard
more.
A properly conducted mission does
all that a church does and more too,
and does all that a charitable society
does and more too, and without de-
tracing from either. A mission
reaches people that never go to
church and does charity and gospel
work that a mere society does not
join or does not do, and Ardmore
does not need any one thing useful
any more than an energetic mission
through which hunger and sin can
he reached and the victim saved"
from both.
Good business is a fine thing for
individuals, and so are good thoughts,
a clean business is profitable, so is
clean life; a growing city adds to
business wealth, but growing man.
hood preserves increment. so come
along and recognize the Wayside Inn

and the Inn will help you have bet
