on your part, it certainly was evident

Mr.. Campfield further urges haste on
the plea that-"We are anxiously
waiting to hand you proposition on a
gas franchise We stand
ready to bid, but we do not want two
or three years delay, as has been done
with the water works franchise" The
gas franchise will be taken care of, Mr..
Campfield, at the proper time, the city
should not bind itself to a new gas
franchise three years prior to the end
ing of the old.
In my judgment the city is lacking
in backbone when it come to dealing
with this water works proposition.
If the city insisted on standing pat
on the specification as prepared, and
the Richmond City Water Works was
given to understand there would be
no deviation, they would bid, and bid
in hurry. If they did not, then rent

THE FIRST CRAY
HAIR SIGN Of ACE
Easy Way to Preserve Natural
Color of the Hair and
~ Make It Crow =,

A harmless remedy, made from COM
mon garden sage, quickly restores gray
hair to natural color. The care of the
hair, to prevent it from losing its color
and lustre, is just as important as to
care for teeth to keep them from dis
coloring. Why spend money for cos
metics and creams to improve the com
plexion, and yet neglect your hair, when
gray hair is even more conspicuous and
suggestive of age than wrinkles or a
poor complexion2 Of the two, it is
easier to preserve the natural color and
beauty of the hair than it is to have
q good complexion.
All that is necessary is the occasional
use of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair
Remedy, preparation of common gar
den Sage and Sulphur, combined with
other valuable remedies for dry, harsh,
faded hair, dandruff, itching scalp and
falling hair. After q few applications
Of this simple, harmless remedy, your
hair will gradually be restored to its
natural color, in short time the dan
1ruff will be removed, and your hair
will no longer come out but will start to
grow as Nature intended it should.
Don't neglect your hair, for it goes
further than anything else to make or
mar your good looks. You can buy
this remedy at any drug store for
ifty cents bottle, and your drug
gist will give your money back if you
are not satisfied after using. Pur-
chase a bottle today. You will never
regret it when you realize the differ
nee it will make in your appearance.

Macon,s Historic Reunion

/ Special trains from all parts of the south are carrying to Macon host of Confederate Veterans. These men gather here after lapse of fully 50 years to hold one among the last of the reunions of Veterans. The Sons of Veterans may continue the reunions but the veterans themselves will not be able to attend many more.
 The Macon celebration is to be an occasion of unusual interest and beau ty. Macon itself fully appreciates not only the importance of the great civil war but also the historic value of the long series of reunions now drawing to an end. Not a few of the old soldiers will mingle for the last time at Macon with their comrades.
 Especial attention is to be given at Macon to the care and comfort of the veterans. They are to be housed at the camp in 1000 large army storage tents furnished by the government, and the commissary department will be able to provide meals for 2000 at setting. The meetings of the reunion are to be held in an auditorium within 210 yards of the camp. All possible preparations have been made for the accommodation and comfort of the veterans themselves.
 The first meeting of the reunion will be held this morning, and the week will be well filled with events that will recall memories of the great est civil war the world has ever known

Senators By Popular Vote

The two branches of Congress are about to agree upon resolution sub- mitting to the states the question of the election of United States senators by direct vote of the people. The Hpuse will accept the Bristow amend mdnt, and this leaves the time and manner of choosing senators where it has been since the adoption of the constitution, for section 4 of article l of that instrument reads as follows: 'The times, places and manner of holding elections for senators and rep resentatives shall be prescribed in each state by the legislature thereof but the Congress may at any time by law make or alter such regulations, except as to places of choosing sena- tors"
 The Bristow amendment simply prolongs the existence of section A. It is a section that was not even directly utilized in reconstruction times and it certainly will not be in times of peace and sanity.
 There is no reason therefore why any southern or other state should re- feet the resolution that will soon be submitted Those who are really op- posed to the direct election of sena- tors may do so, but those who desire to see senators directly elected will favor the ratification of the resolu- tion. The Bristow amendment, in other words, has no poison in it.

man of wealth builds himself palatai home and he gives parties and entertains fashionable society. His children are sent to dancing school, and the members Of the family play cards-bridge whist, 1T they had sufficient intellect to know how; and the rich go to the theatre the same as those do who are outside of the church.
 Tn the North Methodist general con- ference, in session at Minneapolis, some of the delegates wanted the rules against certain amusements abrogated; others fa- vored non-action. As to dancing 1t all depends upon what sort of dancing you mean. In many ball rooms the terpsicho- rean art is without any objectionable side; and as to bridge it Is as moral a game as checkers or chess. In the mat ter of theatre going some of the modern plays are simply abomniable, but other plays teach good morals, and I have seen many play at the Jefferson theatre that was little short of sermon. The trouble with most church people and pastors so- cieties is their action is too sweeping. Everyone should be permitted to exercise his own Judgment as to what is morally helpful or morally injurious

Iron Ore in Mississippi

State Biologist Lowe of Mississippi is an optimist, for he reports seams of iron ore in Benton and Marshall counties, lying along the Tennessee line, richer than any carbonate ore in the United States with one excep- tion, and far richer than most of the celebrated Swedish ore"
 Agricultural Commissioner Blakes- lee says the field is something over 15 miles long and about eight miles wide, and he regrets that he sold his home place about two years ago at a low price. It would be worth for tune now, he says. The farmers are getting $5 an acre for mineral rights payable in the stock of some of the companies being organized.
 The Frisco railroad traverses the new ore counties, and Holly Springs is the capital of Marshall county. The chances are that the great find" of State Geologist Lowe has been over estimated and that it will soon be rated both in quality and quantity somewhat lower than it stands at present in MT. Lowe's mind, for even a mining engineer can be too opti- mistic.

 judges must concur in order to rem der a legislative act unconstitutional.
 The Ohio convention is working un- der the excellent leadership of Judge Hiram D. Peck of Cincinnati to take away the evils that have arisen under our court systems, and when the new plan is perfected it may be found a good fit in other states. The con- vention is largely inclined to reform. Ohio needs a great deal of it, and the belief is that she is in a fair way to get it if she votes to 2 lopt the constitution that vii, soon be sub- nitted to the people.

To the rise of the open hearth pro-
 cess and the lack of stocks in steel in
 1911 is attributed the historic event of the latter year. In 1905 the pro- duction of open hearth steel stood at 7,S15,72S tons; in 1911 the amount was carried to 14,6s5,932 tons, an in- crase of 6,s7O,2O4 tons.
 z The open hearth battle has been fought, and the disappearance from the field of its Bessemer rival is now but matter of time. Open hearth steel is better than Bessemer steel in bridges, in skyscrapers, and on rail- road lines. It is the lbetter of the two everywhere, a2d pretty soon .t9sre will, vii, < r siss1 )used, handled or
