INTERCHANGEABLE
ROAD CONSIDERED
Several Additional High
ways Being Given Close
Attention

Meridian, Miss, August 29.-(Specisl) }
1t is learned that two additional good
roads, concerning which no committees
were appointed, at the Good Roads con-
vention Tuesday, will be given close at
tention by the board of trade. One of
these roads is proposed to run from
Meridian to Canton and it is believed
that this highway would be worth more
to the city than any of the Others as it
would give easy access to Neshoba and
Leake counties. Neshoba and Leake are
especially enthusiastic and will be given
every encouragement Another is the
good road from Livingston and other Ala
bama points, which can be easily built
as good roads in this county viii soon
go to the Alabama line, and Sumter coun-
ty is already arranging to make connec-
ton.
Still another that would be a splendid
one is the proposed highway from. Meri-
dian to Mobile. On the latter committees
have been appointed from all the Missis-
sippi counties that it will traverse and il
Mobile manifests the same interest that
Meridian and Mississippi counties are
manifesting, this highway is assured for
the very near future.

MUCH INTERESTED IN
WEATHERLY'S FIGHT
Willingham Thinks He Will
Meet Serious Opposition
From Publishers

Henry ]. Willingham. superintendent OF
education. while in Birmingham yester-
day. professed to be deeply Interested in
the effort of Commissioner Weatherly to
secure a better rate on school books, but
admitted that the effort was one which
would encounter the most strenuous and
otherwise the most serious opposition.
4 myself stated the superintendent.
have in the past endeavored to get a
better rate. and especially for what is
known as the free book territory. L was
Informed right off the reel, however, that
rather than grant a reduced rate for the
free book territory the publishers would
prefer TO withdraw from Alabama Alto
gether, and lose all the business of this
state.
1T would be serious matter for the
publishers now doing business in Alabama
TO withdraw. 1t would be a matter of
greatest difficulty and worry to obtain
this set of books from that publisher and
dition, whereas now the freight is prepaid
on school books, were other conditions
to prevail, 1t is probable that the city
would have 10 pay the freight.
''The fight is a worthy one. however, ana
Commissioner Weatherly should be COM
mended for making it. 1t is big fight
and one of very doubtful ISSUE
Mr. Willingham stated that the free
book territory in Alabama was excluded
to Birmingham and Dothan, the only cities
which furnish free books for the first three
grades.

CAM|NETT| TRIAL
PROCEEDS RAPIDLY
Evidence With Little Excep-
ton Identical With That
of Diggs' Trial

San Francisco. August 29.-The trial
of f. Drew Caminetti rolled swiftly for
ward today The witnesses and the
evidence of the government weae, with
few exceptions, identically the same as
in the case of Maury |. Diggs, con-
victed of violation of the Mann white
slave law
Marsha Warrington had the stand for
the greater part of the day and her
testimony went to show that Caminetti
was guilty of assisting in transporting
her and Lola Morris from Sacramento.
The effort of the defense was to prove
that Caminetti had played a passive
part. One passage of the cross exam
ination is representative of it's whole
trend:
'At the meeting between Diggs, Cam
inetti. Miss Norris and yourself on the
Saturday before you left for Reno
the meeting at which you two girls
agreed to go-Mr. Diggs did all the
talking and Mr.. Caminetti sat by and
agreed to everything by keeping quiet
Is that the way you wish to De under
stood?"
'Mr. Caminetti agreed to everything"
But he agreed passively. did he
not?"
Here the court interrupted. "Is it
your theory, Mr.. Howe" asked Judge
Van Fleet that Mr.. Caminetti was
taken along also?"
'Our theory. your honor. is that Mr.
Caminetti had nothing to do with talk
ing these girls to Reno. The party went
and he went along with 1t. We do not
contend that he was abducted, but we
hold that because of certain conditions
that party of four found 1t necessary
to leave Sacramento without delay ana
took the first train without regard to
Its destination"

Girard. August 2e.-(Speclal.)-Th past
week has been favorable ON the crop,
a splendid rain having fallen last Sat-
urday. The deterioration shown up to
that date has been largely checked up.
Cotton is maturing better than it had
been, but with that it is opening very
rapidly in the uplands where picking has
advanced considerably. New cotton is
coming to the market rather freely for
the time of season, some of the river
craft having fair loads of the fleecy staple
this week.
Jim Turner, the negro who was shot
through the head in a quarrel with an
other negro over a debt of % cents, is
still alive at this writing despite the fact
that the ball entered the brain and con-
siderable part of the brain was removed

ball. The shooting occurred south of the
city and the negro who did the shooting
has not yet been apprehended.
