merce, by reason of it's inacessi-
bility.
Because of the utter lack of trans
portation, this wide territory was
sparsely settled and had little inter-
course with the outside world, and
practically no business but what
sprang from unattended heards of
sheep and cattle and few logs RATED
to the mills at Moos Point at the
mouth of Pascagoula.
The country was covered, and is
largely yet, by the finest yellow
pine timber in the world, and none
knew or dreamed of the fertility of
these undulating and well watered
lands.
When that strip of country through
with Leaf river runs felt, ten years
ago, the impulse of commercial life
set to moving by the rails that were
laid along the stream, its possibilities
began to reveal themselves.
Even with no bridges to facilitate
trade from the east side of the river,
several prosperous villages and towns
sprang up on and near the river, and
Notwithstanding high freight rates,
and long, Indifferent service from the
new road, have developed much bust
ness.
These principal points, to name
them in their order are McCallum,
Manned, New Augusta, Wingate,
Beaumont, McLain, Leaf and Merrill,
and last just below the confluence of
Leaf and Chickasawhay, and whence
the N. o. M. & c. railroad runs away
from Pascagoula to Mobile, its ter
minus.
These towns are supported by the
numbering industry largely, though
agriculture, while it is beginning,
contributes too.
East of Leaf river, below Beaumont,
there is yet wide section so undevel-
Opcu ludI IL WOulu more especially
respond to the effects of a navitable
river.
There are quite a number of farms
in this particular section, because
of its greater proximity to the M. &
o. railroad. These residents would
be indeed grateful for boat landings
along their side, in lieu of the long
rough roads to the one or two indif-
ferent bridges that take them to the
railroad.
From Merrill down along Pascagoula
for forty miles we find section abso-
lutely unserved on the west side by

have anywhere.

ALABAMA.


The Ninth Alabama contest turned
on the question whether the chairman
OF district committee. had power to
NIL vacancies, whether committee
man who had sent his resignation to
take effect only in case he was not
present, beilg present, should be pre-
vented from acting as committeeman,
and, third, on the identity of another
committeeman. The written resou-
ton under which the right Of the
chairman 10 appoint to vacancies WAS
claimed showed On its face that the
specific authority was written in in
different writing and different cOoreh
pencil between the lines. A numhcr OF
aftidavits were filed by committeeman
who were present when the resolution
was passed to show that the resuu-
tion contained no such authority, This
gave rise to a question of fact upon
which a very large majority OF both
the national committee and the com.
mittee on credentials held that the
lead pencil insertion was forgery
that the chairman did not have the an
thority therefore to appoint to the
vacancies. and therefore the actlan of
his committee was not valid This
made 1t necessary to reject the contest
ants. The committee decided t'tn two
other issues Of fact before them IN
favor of the Taft contention, although
the first decision was conclusive.
