ADAMS COUNTY ROADS.
Natchez Democrat:

Natchez Democrat:
The fact that Adams county pro-
poses TO expend $15O,00O for the
construction of permanent good
roads should not be regarded a.
an intimation that the present con-
dition OF the roads is not good.
me proposed expenditure OF 15O,-
900 for permanent highways is but
q continuation Of the work started
twelve years ago. The county mas
expended $l42,8l7 in the last twelve
years for public highways, steel
bridges and concrete culverts,
which shows that Adams has long
been in the lead in this movement
10 secure good public highways.
Taking the amount expended IN
the fast twelve years, and the $l5O,-
900 to be expended next year,
Adams will be able to show that
she will pay the magnificent sum
Of S292,S17 III thirteen years, all lor
the Improvement of her public
h;phwavs. for steel bridges and
concrete culverts are items which
properly belong to the cost OF
public highways.
There are few agricultural coun-
ties in the South that can show as
much interest in the subjects, or
a. heavy expenditures for the same
nnrnoses. as can be shown by the
records Of the Adams County
Board Of Supervisor ana by tne
visual evidences as one rfdes over
the roads in this county.

the GATE WAY
TO OPPORTUNITY.
We Deplore Conditions, Yet
Do Not Act.

Mr.. JnO. Dalton, Sr., OF Morgan
City, It 10 announced, shipped $4,000
lbs of fish and oysters to distant
markets in one day recently. It is
also stated that his shipments ex-
coed those of the other shippers of
Morgan City, Berwick and Houma
combined. II these staten ents are
without error and the shipment
would average q net value of 10
cents per pound, it would represent
total Of $1,000.
This city voted q special tax for
the cutting Of q canal from the bay
to the City. The navigable por-
tiOn Of the canal was haulted some
two miles below the corporation
limits for the want of funds, which
the taxpayers refused to provide
at 4 second election. If that wa
ter way were completed into this
city it would put this place in line
to embark in the fish and oyster
shipping business, and would open
new ways for the employment Of
capital and labor to considerable
extent.
While one packer ships $4,000 lbs
in one day, suppose we could aver
age 1000 lbs day through the sea-
son, extending from the first of
September to the close Of the fol-
lowing April, 1t would show q busi-
ness, at 10 cents per lb, OF $4,000
for the season. Two such seasons
would represent commerce value
greater than the cost Of completing
Of the canal.
The bottom of Vermiiion Bay iE
many places would yield quantities
Of good sand. Other places would
yield marketable shells. With the
canal completed this shell and sand
supply could be marketed from
this place in considerable quanti-
ties. A dredge boat, line OF
barges, and tugs would be neces-
sary. A payroll for 25 or 80 men
would also be necessary, adding
some $4,000 or Sl5,e0o per annum
to the commerce Of this City.
A canning factory would become
possible ut this point. 1t could de-
vote it's attention during the fall
and winter months to the putting
up Of fish. shrimp, oysters and
crabs. During the other months o!
the year the factory could turn itf
attention to vegetables, as it would
be surrounded by . rich trucking
section.
The completion Of that cana
would be one Of New Iberia's gold
en- opportunities.

FOUND UNCONSCIOUS.
Mr. John Newman Picked
Up by Train Crew and
Brought Back to the City.

Yesterday morning between 9
and 10 O'Clock a freight train roll
ed in to the So Pa. d pot here hav
ing aboard Mr. John Newman, VINO
was picked up on the right OF way
a little this side OF Olivier station
DR.. j. w. Sanders was called and
took charge of the injured man
who was removed to his home, in
castend.
Mr.. Newman had been employed
for some time at the saWmiil just
below Lockport. He came up here
to spend the Christmas holidays
with his family and relatives.
On Thursday, preparatory to re
turning to the scene OF his duties,
it is stated, he cashcd a check at
one OF the city banks. Knowing
that the train would stop at the
Frisco crossing, it is presumed
that he decided to board his east
bound train at that point. He pro-
bably attempted to board train No.
.. Finding the door to the steps
closed he perhaps hung on to the
handles, hoping that he would be
seen and that the door would be
opened for his admission.
1t seems that he was not discov-
cred. As the air was extremely
chilly he probably grew numb be-
fore the train reached Olivier and
lost his hold on the brass rods by
the side OF the entrance. In fall
ing he sustained fracture Of the
skull on the right side, above the
ear. This rendered him uncon-
scious and helpless. In that con-
dition he must have lain on the
right of way from 6 O'Clock in the
morning till near mines when he
was discovered by Conductor Jack
son OF the incoming freight
He was picked up, much stiffened
by cold, and placed in the caboOse.
Such wraps as were available were
placed about him and the train
hurried on to this station.
Up to our last information Mr.
Newman has not regained con-
sciOuSness and, under the circum-
stances, has not been able to give
any account of the accident He is
considered to be in a very critical
condition and his recovery is ques-
tionable.
The account we give above is
based upon suppositions, which
are prompted by such facts as are
known. The crossing would have
been convenient place for him
to catch train No. 2, the train he
most probably desired to take /;
and the finding OF him this side Of
Olivier, can all be accounted for.
Some seem to think that he had
been held up and robbed, and that
his injuries resulted from the as
sault by the highwayman or men.
Such a theory does not readily ex-
plain his presence at point near
Olivier station II there are evi-
dences of his having been robbed,
that act may have been committed
by some tramp, who took advan-
tage of his physical condition and
without being responsible for it.
Mr.. Newman is a splendid gentle
man, of exemplary habits, good
family, millwright and saw filler
by trade and has many admiring
friends here, who sincerely hope
for his speedy recovery

WILSON RESTS AND DEFENSE
NOT READY TO CALL WITNESSES

M. f. Prosser, representing John
II. Wilson in the latters action
against the Oahu Loan Fund Commits.
sion to compel the commission to
award the Heeia belt road contract to
him as the lowest responsible bidder,
closed his case this morning about IL
o'clock after having put on a large
number of prominent men as wit
nesses to testify to Wilson's ability
and financial responsibility to carry
out the contract,
The evidence given this morning
was in no way sensational, consisting
for the most part of testimonials TO
Wilson's ability, responsibility and
integrity, and to the fact that he had
ample backing to carry out the con
tract if it should be awarded to him.
But there were number of sharp
passages between the opposing attor-
neys, who seemed to be having con.
siderable fun with one another.
Two members of the Loan Fund
Commission, Sam Dwight and Bert
Petrie, were called to the witness
stand by Prosser, but little informa
tion was ELECTED from them, most o
the questions asked being shut out
by the court on objections raised by
the attorneys. Dwight testified thai
the reason he voted to award the con
tract to the Lord-Young Company in
stead Of to Wilson was that he con
sidered Wilson not TO be a respon

sible bidder on so large a contract.
"A man has right to his own opin-
ion, added Dwight bellicosely.
On cross-eXamination Sutton asked
Dwight what were the reasons that
led him to form that opinion, but
Prosser objected, and after a sharp
argument between the two attorneys,
in which Wilder Joined in with Sut-
ton, the objection was sustained.
Sutton then moved that Dwight's orig
inal answer be stricken out, and this
was allowed, after another passage At
arms.
In the beginning of his testimony
Dwight stated that he would not have
voted against Wilson had he known
that the latter was in partnership
with McCandless. Wilder objected 20
this answer and moved that it be
stricken out. Prosser protested, say
ing he wanted to prove by the wit.
ness that the reason the contract was
not awarded to Wilson was that the
members of the commission thought
him not financially responsible, and
that they did not take the trouble to
go to Cecil Brown, whose letter was
before them, to make inquiry into the
matter when they might have learned
that Wilson had ample financial back
ing.
Sutton contended that that was al
beside the mark and stated that, nc

Encarnacion Valderramma is the
source of much anxiety to the charit-
ably inclined officials of the Federal
Immigrant station. When Encarna-
cion left Spain some months ago with
her husband and her five little chill
dren en- route to the promised land
there were no problems on the horizon
and there was no omen of the fate that
awaited her here in Hawaii. Now she
is widow, the sole support of the
five children, she is about to be con-
fined, so will be unable to take charge
of her large and active family, and
has no friends in this land who could
care for her until provision is made.
In spite of all this she begs not to
be sent back to Spain, for she says
she would be just as destitute there
and not nearly so happy.
Valderramma died here in quaran.
tine and since then the widows only
consolation has b the splendid
health and spirits of her little flock
