EXTENDING THE SYSTEM.

There are signs to be observed al
most daily just now that would indi-
cate that before long the town water
works will have healthy monthly in
come. The signs are in the shape OF a
continual tearing up OF the streets for
the placement of water pipes for con-
sumers. Our water system is one of
the best to be found in any of the
smaller towns of the state, and every
householder within tapping distance
of the mains should catch on. not
only for the convenience to the con-
sumner, but every additional tap in
creases the revenue, and the water
works, and the extension of the SER
vice. should be encouraged.

IN TENNESSEE
GREAT MAJORITY OF NEGROES
STANDING FOR ROOSEVELT.
Taft Policies Don't Appeal to Then
His Hypocrltical Methods Severe

Silent Movement Toward
Roosevelt. Efforts Of
Taft SpelI-binders Vain.

There has never been new party
introduced in Tennessee that has so
completely captured the Negroes as
has the National Progressive Party
familiarly known is the Bull Moose
Party.
This was first thought to be
spasmodic move that would soon die
out. 1t was said that when the
friends of President Taft got all of
his men and made a few speeches
to the Negroes throughout Tennessee,
they would all forget Mr.. Roosevelt's s
his new part; but despite the fact
that the Progressive campaign
managers in Tennessee have been
as slow and have managed the cam.
paign as awkwardly as it is possible
for men to do, and have apparently
shown no interest in the matter
nevertheless every day brings new
evidences of new recruits to the
Progressive ranks. 1t is sand by
some that the quiet manner in which
things are being conducted had ap
pealed to the Negro more than any
thing else and that the thinking mer
don't require great speeches and mass
meetings to convince them of the
wisdom of the course mapped out by
Ex-President Roosevelt and the Pro
gressive Party; but that these mer
were able to judge for thmeselvei
and understand the principles of tn,
party, and are waiting to be aroused
or excited to make up their opinions
Mr.. T. Clay Moore, who is in charg,
of the Colored Progressive headquar
ters in this city, says that the out
look is most encouraging; that ever.

The Mary Sachs Is beached on the spit of Lopp's lagoon about 50 miles above Cape Prince of Wales. and whether she got there by accident or design Is now the question that re- mains to be solved.
 The belief is that if she has gone on the beach by accident she will cost about as much as she is worth to get her of. Some believe. however that she was put in to the mouth oi the lagoon to have her shaft fixed Pete Bernard is said to have remarked that this repair was necessary and that 1t would cost $500 to have the boat docked at St. Michael. Some oi the shipping men here believe the re- pairs could be made where she is by weighing her bow with sand to leave the stern high.
