Seen at the Offices of the company
in the Citizens National Bank building
yesterday, Mr.. Dickinson said that
the outlook for the construction of the
road was never better; that there had
been no attempt to begin construction
because there were many details that
needed attention and in this connec-
ton ne said that the public generally
had no conception of the great amount
of preliminary work that was neces-
sary before construction could proper
~ begin. He stated that he had shown
his faith in the road by putting in
more than thirty thousand dollars Of
his own money, which he surely would
not have done had he not believed
that the road would be built and would
be the best piece Of railroad property
in the country when completed
Mr.. Dickinson states that he knows
whereof he speaks when ne says that
there will be no trouble about inanc-
ing the road; that it is regarded as the
D6SL railroad prospect II the SOuLI'
Work will start out of Pensacola. dur
ing the month Of September; that the
company has until September % to
begin work in Pensacola under their
contract. This work will be begun
before that time, and ten miles out Of
Pensacola will be built first. After
this shall have been done. Mr.. Dickin-
son thinks that work will start out of
Meridian in the direction of Pensa-
cola.
Mr.. Dickinson expected to be in Me-
ridian several days, but will have to
return to Chicago this afternoon.
However, he expects to return to Me-
ridian in about week and will make
this place his headquarters.

CAPTURES CONFIDENCE.
"The method by which the Demo-
cratic convention seized their Oppor-
tunity is so simple and straightfor-
ward that it at once captures conf
dence and. arouses enthusiasm. 1t was
accomplished by simply nominating
for president and vice president men
whose records as governors, respec-
lively of New Jersey and Indiana, show
that they know how to create and
apply needed governmental remedies
and whose lives give abundant surety
that the pledges of their party and
their own promises to the people will
be faithfully kept. The result is that
success seems. even to the most cauu-
Gus observer to be already assured"
Mr.. Parker took his text from Gov
ernor Wilson'S notification speech
wherein is considered the partner
ship between government and priv
ilege. His method of treatment was to
declare:
The fact of the partnership and
the resulting public injury.
2-That the Republican party was
solely responsible for the Inaugural
ton of the partnership relations, in
stancing the tariff and combinations
to restrain trade and prevent compe-
tition as the illustrations.
3-That neither the Republican or
the Progressive party could be trusted
to break up the partnership.

complete trust and confidence in the
pending election, Judge Parker referred
