Very little was accomplished yester-
day by the committee of Southsiders
who appeared before the Administra-
tive Board with n request that Twelfth
Street, between Decatur and Perry. be
paved The committee was informed
that plans. for guttering and curbing
had already been submitted. to the
board for approval. and that the situa-
ton must be carefully considered be-
fore any paving is ordered. II there
is any money available the board will
authorize the work in the near future.
The board adopted n resolution pro-
hibiting the use of Porter Street by
heavy trucks. The street has been
used considerably in the past few
weeks by a line OF automobile trucks
maintained by q tobacco concern in
hauling hogsheads of tobacco. When
the smooth paving. which has been
authorized by the board is laid II will
be necessary to keep draft vehicles off
the street. and as the work will start
almost Immediately ii was thought best
by the board to close the street. Major

In offering to you, my country men, these counsels of an old and affectionate friend, l dare not hope that they will make the strong and lasting impression l could wish; that they will con- trol the usual current of the pas sions, or prevent our nation from running the course which hither- to has marked the destiny of na- tionS; but if may even flatter myself that they may be pro ductive of some partial benefit, some occasional good; that they may now and then recur to mod crate the fury of party spirit, to warn against the mischiefs of foreign intrigues, to guard against the impotsures of pre-, tended patriotism; this hope will be full rerompense for the solic- itude for your welfare by which they have been dictated.

A Small Leak Will Sink a Great
 Shin

You may spend as you go. pay ing no attention to the Oppor- tunities to save which are adver- tised by progressive merchants, but you will find sooner or later that little expenses count up to large sums.
 A loose, here-and-there buyer can quickly squander all her mon- ey by forgetting the value of the little purchases.
 Care in expending the small amounts will quickly repay the economical housewife.
 Every night in it's advertising columns the Prospector points the way to many opportunities for stopping the small leaks. Special sales are advertised by the mer- chants. In small things, such as soaps. ribbons and notions, there may be just one penny off the regular price. But when you add them all together you will find that the pennies number dollar OF two.
 Read all the advertisements in the Prospector closely and con- stantly every night for opport un- ity to save not only pennies but dollars.

Entanglements With Foreign

FOWcFS.
 Against he insidious Wilrs Of foreign influence { conJure you to believe me. fellow citizens the jealousy of free people ought to constantly awake: since history and experience prove that foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of republican gov ernnent. But that jealousy to De useful. must be impartial Il: else It becomes the instrument ni ne very influence tu be avoided, ll- stead of a defence against It. E.X- ccsSive partiality for one foreign nation. and excessive dislike for another. cause those whom they artualr tO see danger only on one side. and serve to veil, and even second, the arts of influence on the other. Real patriots, who may resist the intriGues of the favor ite. are liable to become suspect !, pd and OdiOus, while it's tools and dupes usurp the applause and confidence of the people, to sur- render their interests.
 The great rule of conduct for us, in regard to foreign nations; is. in extending our cOmmerclal relations, to have with them as little political connection as pos sible. So far as we have already formed engagements, let them De fulfilled with perfect good faith. Here let us stop.
 Europe has set of primary interests, which to us have none, or very r. .mote relation; Hence she must be engaged in frequent controversies. the causes of which are essentially foreign to our concerns. Hence, therefore, 1t must be unwise in us to impli- cate ourselves, by artificial ties, in the ordinary vicissitudes of her politics. or the ordinary comblna- lions and collisions of her frlend- ships or cnmitirs.
 Our detached and distant sit uatinn invites and enables us to pursue a different course.
