A MODERN MIRACLE.

Mr.. Jenkins Fench sat in his private
office in the new building of the ALA
coochee Land, Manufacturing and I'm
provement company, giving audience to
prospective investors as they were adj
mitted one at time by the clerk in
the outer room. If, in the beginning,
the manager had played a somewhat
leisurely second to Lawyer Sharpless'
lead, all traces of inertness vanished
with the breaking OF ground for the
new city, and Mr.. Fench became for
the time an incarnation of enthusiasm
and restless activity. Allacoochee and
its advantages circumscribcd the rim
Of his horizon; the rest Of the world was
4 mere tail to the comet of which this
latest luminary in the urban galaxy
was the head.
And evidence was not wanting that
no inconsiderable portion of the world
of investment stood ready to take ALA
coochee at Mr.. Fench's appraisal. From
morning till night the outer office was
crowded with buyers; and tie rocket
like fight of prices seemed only TO add
TO the eager anxiety.of those who wait-
ed their turns to get speech with the
busy manager. IL is true that Mr..
Fench left nothing undone TO fan the
flame of enthusiasm, and il is equally
certain that some of his methods were
rather more enterprising than honor
able; but no one stopped to analyze
the reaping process while the golden
harvest was so plentiful. snd Mr..
lench's little ruses were accepted and
credited by scores of people who in the
ordinary walks of life were neither
knaves nor fools.

ARM, the mother of the Great Sun or
chief ruler of the Natchez nation at
the time of the massacre of the French
by the Natchez on the 27th of Novem-
Der, 1929. She suspected the great con-
spiracy that was on foot among the
Natchez to destroy the French, and,
being a faithful friend of the latter,
induced by repeated solicitations her
son, who was only II years old, to con-
Tess to her that he had sent messengers
to all the Indian nations throughout
Louisiana, each message bearing a bun
die of sticks, and each bundle containing
exactly as many sticks as the others.
The instructions given TO the other In
dian nations were to begin burning
stick on n certain day, and when the
last stick should be consumed TO fall
on the French in their vicinity and Stay
them.
Bras-Pique had the details of the plot
mandant of the post, but finding that
he treated the warnings with contempt,
with the view of saving the majority of
the French in Louisiana by dislocating
the plan of the conspiracy, she entered
the temple Of Natchez. where the 'sa-
cred fire" was perpetually maintained,
and threw several sticks FROM the bun
die which had been deposited in the
temple on the fire, and thus disarranged
the Natchez part of the conspiracy.
When the last stick of the Natchez was
burned the massacre of nearly all the
French in the Natchez country followed,

tated by the stratagem of the devoted

There is nothing more charming than

that, with all the evidence of shattered

The present move for the
direct election of United States
senators is nation wide and
shows the pulse of the people
and the feeling of responsibility
that they, the people, must take
a hand in politics ia order to do
away with the Millionares' Club
at Washington, D. c., which is
the name often given to the
United States senate. The Lor-
inner election has shocked and
aroused the American people to
a sense of their duty. When
millionares can go out and pur-
chase seats in the United States
senate like a broker purchases a
thousand bushels of grain, it is
high time that the voters of the
United States take a hand in
politics and purify them. The
present system of electing Unit
ed States senators has been the
means of making it possible for
such gigantic corporations as the
steel and oil trusts to rob the
people of that which is their own.
If all states had the initiative
and referendum and statement
one to subscribe to it would not
be long before we would be able
to elect such senators as would
bring the constitutional amend
ment, making the election of
United States senators direct by
the people for consideration by
a vote. Oregon is the father
of a law which will bring relief
to the country for we could
