TRAFFIC ON THE L. e. NJ.
SHOWS BIG INCREASE.

A decided increase in the freight
and passenger traffic of the Louisville
& Nashville road is evidenced by the
number of trains passing through
Paris daily.
According to Louisville & Nashville
officials the increased freight traffic
is due to the large output of the Ken
lucky coal fields shipments from
which destined for Cincinnati and
other Northern markets must neces-
sarily pass through Paris by reason of
geographical location of the mines.
Each freight trains passing through
Paris carrying these coal shipments
are double headed, one engine being
inadequate to pull the heavy trains.
1t is confidently believed that business
on this division of the l.. & n will
assume a renewed activity within the
next few weeks.
The passenger traffic, too, is show
ing signs of healthy revival, due in
great measure to the exodus of
wealthy people of the North, who are
fleeing to the sunny chimes of Flor
ida to escape the coming rigOrS of
their own climate. Through trains
over this division, notably the morn
ing and night Florida Limited trains,
carry large numbers of these seekers
of a warmer climate, and with the
coming of real cold weather, the num-
Der will be materially increased.
The local shops in the South Paris
yards are working to their full ca
pacity and a number of trainmen who
have been temporarily laid off" have
been called back to duty again.

though there was any sacredness ir
a flag except through the majesty Of
the citizenship behind it. He ther
delivered a message to congress ex'
planning what he had done, and
wanted the endorsement of congress
at the same time explaining that he
had only ,ove for the Mexican people
but rcnanded satisfaction from the
usurper whom he had all the time
refused to recognize. AS though
there was any way to strike him save
through the people.
A rambling resolution endorsing
the presidents act was like every
thing else he has proposed, rushed
through congress.
Seeing how untenable was the pres
ident's position, Senator Lodge OF
Massachusetts, supported by Senator
Root of New York, Senator Gallinger
of New Hampshire and the Oldest
and ablest senators in congress in
troduced a substitute giving the pres
ident all he wanted and at the same
time providing the means to carry
out policy which would complete
the swift blishment of peace in
Mexico. This placed the business on
substantial basis and gave the gov
eminent full power to act. But the
house resolution, passed and the gov
eminent was really in the air, not
knowing how to proceed, when the
ambassadors of Brazil, Argentina
and Chile rendered their good offices
to settle affairs in Mexico.
Senator Smoot of Utah voted for
the Lodge-Root substitute. For that
vote he should receive the approval
of every American in Utah. But
ever since he has been assailed for
that vote by men and newspapers
who could not have kept track OF
events as they TRANSFERRED.
Some have drawn luri! pictures OF
the terrible war that would have fol-
lowed the passage of the substitute
There would have been no terrible
war for the masses of the Mexicans
are mongrels who cannot stand UP
in real fight.
The United States with 10000
men took the Mexican capital once
but had there been a little war II
would have been a just one, no wal
for spoils or territory, but wal
to compel peace, and justice and to
impress the sacredness of American
citizenship upon Mexico and all the
world. And there is no certainty
that such war will not yet have to
be fought before Mexico becomes a
decent place to live in.-Goodwin' s
