Change Is Beneficial.

The sale will prove Of great
benefit to Emmett in many ways.
The chief benefit will be saw
ing in freight and passenger rates,
as the same rates will undoubted-
ly apply as on the main line. The
passenger rate will thus be cents
per mile, instead of cents. In
freight rates it is estimated there
will be saving of s26 on every
car of fruit shipped out, as well
as on all other carload shipments
in and out.

Bank WIN Be Strongly Protected at
Base by Rip-Rapping or
Heavy Piling. T
DIRT FROM VILLA RIDGE CUT

The Illinois Central will shortly
begin raising its tracks In the Drain
age District from their present ele-
walton Of about SO feet to SIS or SO
feet on the United States Govern
ment guage at Cairo.
This proposed improvement OF the
Central was made public In The Bull
letin Immediately following the re-
sumption Of traffic into the city dur
ing the high water period upon
authority of A. f. Cliff, general
superintendent of the road.
1t was stated at the time that the
Central, in addition to elevating It's
road bed, would protect the embank-
ment on both sides, either by rip
rapping or by driving heavy piling
which would effectually prevent any
injury to tn embankment from water
such as IL incurred on two different
occasions, Interfering with traffic
and immense loss OF money.
Their will be several euiverts
placed In the embankment at regular
intervals, these culverts or subways,
being made large enough for vehicles
to pass through from one side to the
other Of the Drainage District.
The elevation will begin at
MonndB and be carried down
through the District to the Junction
with the Big Four levee just under
the bic bridge, where the grade Will
be 5S or 60 feet when Cairo's new
leyee system is completed.
The bridge spanning Cache Creek
will be raised, as will also the sub
way at Kesslcr's.
The dirt for this big elevation of
six or eight feet distance of six
miles will come from the big cut to
he made at villa Ridge in lowering
the road bed 80 feet in that yicini-
ty, which will neeessitate moving
the tracks east about eco feet.
