on IS 900 concrete mansion and il
receiving bids for q hundred foot
monument which will bear the in
scription "Jonesboro" on the top.
When he has completed his man
sion he will endeavor to secure a
postoffice for Jonesboro.
He has lived in q three-room log
cabin more than half q century and
is regarded as the most eccentric
citizen in Henderson county. His
feud with the railroad dates from
the time it was built in 1885. when.
thoughlthe tracks ran through Jones,
land, the village which sprang up
was called Highland.
Jones tore down the Highland
signs several times. placing others
labeled Jones Station in their
places. He said he was prepared to
spend his entire fortune in an at.
tempt to get the railroad to change
the name of the station so that his
family might be honored. and said
that he would not replace his log
cabin with a fine mansion until the
name was changed.
The new time tables Of the Illinois
Central now recognize "Jonesboro."
and carloads of concrete for the new
mansion are being hauled into the
place Jones says he is serious about
building big monument to COM
memorate his victory. saying he has
the price and the inclination.

SURVIVAL OF OLD NAMES
Nowhsrs Does Aboriginal Nomenela-'
turo Stick a. Il Doss In narts
Of New England.

In all countries the names Of
rivers, lakes, mountains and locah-
ties longest retain the traces Of the
language spoken by the earlier h.
habitants. This is well illustrated
throughout Ireland, Scotland and
Wales, and in many parts Of Eng
land itself, but nowhere is the sur
vival Of aboriginal names 90 general
as in New England and some other
sections of the country. Whenever
one Of these names is dropped, 90
has been done to some extent in the
White mountain region, where good
Indian names have been made TO give
place in too many instances 10
names bestowed in honor Of individ.
uals. II the practice had stopped
with the FIVE peaks Of the PreGi-
Dental range, it would have been
much better. In the case Of the VII
lage Of Mantle, in Rhode Island,
however. there appears to be no spe-
cial occasion for regret, as there IL
another Mantle a few miles away,
and this particular village was not
originally Mantle anyway. It was
changed from Charlestown to Dorr-.
vile, from Dorrville to Mantle, and
has now been again changed to
Bradford.

THE democrats Of the Texas Legls'

ingenuity in order to make all the
Texas Congress districts safely demo
cratic, are, it is charged, planning to
xerrymander the state in the interest
OF one democratic faction and against
the interest OF another. Recent dis
patches from Austin to The ST. Louis
be-Democrat convey the intorma-
sion that the friends of Senator Bailey
have arranged to retire all the anti
Baileyites in the present House OF Dele
CATION by Juggling the lines OF the new
apportionment. This is gerrymanderlns
carried to the second degree OF unIea,

will be to gerrymander the Legislature
SO as to help or hinder the cause of pro-
hibition, or OF the initiative and ref,
erendun, or OF woman suffrage. Once
the gerrymander bacillus gets to work
there is no telling to what excuses II
rnay drive ruling party or ruling
