, United States Regular Army Band
from FIT. Mcpherson, Georgia will be
at the camp. This splendid band OF
twenty-eight pieces, recognized to be
one of the finest musia1 organizations
in the world will make the encamp-
ment the Mecca Of music lovers
through out the state. Two other
bands from the Mississippi National
Guard will also be at the encampment.
Special days have been set aside
for the different features of the en-
campment, as follow:
Wednesday, August 9Th Governors
Day-Governor Brewer who is by vir-
tue of his office commander in chief
of the guard, and his staff, will attend
the encampment, and the program for
the day will be designed especially for
the occasion.
Thursday, August 9th, Veterans

Civil and Spanish-American wars will

there was no possible way of hauling
his household goods in.
He ordered the cars containing his
goods returned north and wired his
family not to come He has gone
back north to wait until the county
builds some good roads.
Another man has bought 400 acres
in the adjourning section. He has two
sons and two daughters married. They
are successful farmers in Indiana.
They will each farm 80 acres and
there will be built five good houses.
They are coming south this fall. 1t
is possible they mightalso want some
good roads.
These are two samples. They are
many who have bought and expect to
come south this fall, settling the
greater part of township. 1t is sure
ly worth while to build a few good
roads and | believe the county will
build them.
1t does not strike me as practical
to do this work by private subscrip-
ton, much as the generosity of one
citizen is to be commended.
Roads were never built on any scale
making an impression except by issu-
ing bonds and allowing the genera.
lions enjoying the benefits to pay for
them.
AS you say in your editorial, there
is not a man in the whole community
who does not receive benefit. There
is no reason why he should not pay
his proportion of the cost.
Nothing will bring population of the
desirable sort like good roads. Moth
ing will attract attention to Forrest
county and build the best city in Mis-
sissippi at Hattiesburg in the same
proportion as good roads.
There is nothing that will receive
general approval by all the people SC
readily.
| | would by no means suggest con
filming these roads to any one section
There are good farming sections al
ready established that should have
them. There is nothing in which any
community can invest with the assur.
ance of as big results as in the build
ing of good roads.

parties, he would have quite a different
status from that which he would hold
as third-term candidate of the Re-
publican party. He would at last be
a real Independent. He would at

courage of his convictions. The
spectacle of such a man battling
singlehanded against the bosses and
reactionaries of both parties would
make powerful impression upon the
minds of the average American. Even

Columbus, Miss, June 26-Prepara-
tons are being completed for the
greatest encampment in the history
of the Mississippi National Guard in
this city from August 9Th to 18th.
Adjutant-G General Arthus Fridge, of
Jackson, who has active command Of
the state troops, was in the city the
last week looking after the prelimin-
airy arrangements for the encamp-
ment, and to get in touch with local
conditions and those who will have
charge of the work here. Gen Fridge
states that he expects the coming en-
campment to be the most generally
attended meeting of the troops ever
held. He states that Columbus is a
POPULAR place among the members Of
the guard and the selection of this
city was hailed with much delight by
both the rank and file of the entire
guard.
This city entertained the guard four
years ago and the experiences of the
occasion are recalled with pleasure.
Elaborate preparations of a social ma
ture are being made for the entertain
ment of the soldier boys, and in addi-
ton to these courtesies, other amuse-
ments are in store. The Cotton States
League schedule provides for six
games on the home ground out of ten
days of the encampment. Columbus
will play Jackson August 8, 9 and TO-,
and Greenwood ~, 10 and IA. The
camp site is located within few hun
bred yards of the ball park and will be
convenient for the soldiers as well
as to the visitors at the grounds.
The Mississippi National Guard is
composed of two regiments and one
cavalry company. The company of
cavalry will form one of the most spec
tacular features of the encampment
In addition to the Mississippi troops
the government sends a command of
the regulars to this city, from the
maneuvre grounds at Admission, Ala.
1t is the policy of the government to
send a detachment from the regular
army to each state encampment for
the purpose of assisting and instruct
ing the volunteer soldiers in the rudi
ments of war.
The social features of the encamp-
ment this year at Columbus will be
unusually brilliant. The 18th Infantry

STRONG ARGUMENT
FOR GOOD ROADS


Hattiesburg, Miss, June "a.
Editor News:
| was much interested in the article
which appeared in your issue this
evening concerning good roads.
have for the past few months
been actively engaged in selling sew
eral thousands of acres of cut-over
lands in this county to farmers from
the North. l can therefore speak of
this feature.
These lands have been sold on very
small margin of profit in order to al
low the purchaser to have as much
money as possible with which to de-
velop his farm.
The one thing that interests each
and every purchaser is the question of
good roads.
Some of the farmers have settled
upon their places and are planting
crops where stumps held the land
less than six months ago. Purchasers
of some six or seven thousand acres
are waiting for some road building
before settling.
Tn discussing the question OF roads
very recently one man said he saw no
need Of a road from Hattiesburg
through Rawls Springs and Mammoth
Springs and leading west to Lamar
county line, with outlets at Clyde and
Epley, because he did not think
enough people lived along the line.
Here is the answer. A man from
Illinois recently picked out and pur.
chased $40 acres of land at the west
county line. He was just the sort OF
man who helps to make a country.
He had $4,000 with which to develop
his land. He transferred a healthy
bank account to Hattiesburg. He
picked out his gasoline engine and
other farm machinery in Hatties-
burg. He arranged to build good
house and other farm buildings. He
planned the fences about the $40 acres
and the cross fences. He planned to
Immediately clear the whole tract He
was spending his money and adding

ing others to do the same
In fact, he was going to build a
model farm and have all the convent
ences that any city home possesses.
All his goods had been shipped to
Hattiesburg from the North. His
wife and three children were to fol-
low the next week, living in Hatties-
burg until the farm was ready.

WOODROW WILSON THE ANSWER

New York World.
Woodrow Wilson is the answer to
Mr.. Roosevelt's third party.
II Gov. Wilson is nominated at
Baltimore, honest and sincere Republi-
can progressives will have a candidate
for President for whom they can con-
scientiously vote and through whom
they can voice Their protest against
Republican reaction. There would
then be no legitimate field for Mr..
Roosevelt's third party, and its mem
bers would be confined to Mr.. Roose-
velt's personal followers.
But IL, the Democratic Convention
dominates a reactionary or a weak
progressive who does not measure up
to this crisis, Mr.. Roosevelt's party
will Immediately become a vital ele-
ment in American politics. 1t will
come into existence in response to an
irresistible demand, and will do prac-
tically much damage to the Demo
Gratis as to the Republicans.
To name so-called conservative

There is nothing new about the idea
of using Sage for restoring the color
of the hair. Our grandmothers kept
their hair dark, glossy and abundant
by the use Of simple Sage Tea"
Whenever their hair fell out or took
on a dull, faded or streaked appear
ance, they made brew of Sage leaves,
and applied it to their hair with won
derfully beneficial effect.
Nowadays we don't have to resort to
the old-time tiresome method of gath
ering the herbs and making the tea.
This is done by skillful chemists bet
ter than we could do it ourselves; and
all we have to do is to call for the
ready-made product. Wyeth's Sage

Sage in the proper strength, with the
addition of Sulphur, another old-time
