DANISH WEST INDIES.

The Danish West Indies lie about
fifty miles off the coast of Porto Rico
and are invaluable as strategetic
points for the defense of the Panama
Canal. The islands are st. Thomas,
st. John and st. Croix. These islands
were discovered by Columbus. The
population, about 27.00O. is nearly all
negro.
enthusiastically, these islands are
part of the diocese of Roseau, which
has its episcopal see in the town of
the same name, on the British island

HARVEST OF SOULS IN ToNKlN

Bishop Munagorris, Vicar Apostolic
OF Central Tonkin, reports a rich har
vest of baptisms for the past year
due, alas! to the terrible famine ex
listing in that country. Not less than
1862 dying children were baptized;
dying, of course, of starvation. He
says:
I'VE were. able to rescue 4,260 aban
doned infants, and if we had had more
/. m0ney we could have saved hundreds
pr others.

RAILWAYS WOULD PLAY
IMPORTANT WAR ROLE
Likely Be Determining Factor
OF United States Defeat
Or Success

In the possible, Out let US nope
improbable, contingency of ar
invasion of this country by hos
tile military forces, the efficien.
cy of our railroads would prove
the determining factor of our
success or defeat. Ours is a
country of magnificent distances,
and the forces needed against an
enemy would have to be on the
spot when wanted-not after
ward. Our roads have not been
built with an eye to their strate-
getic Importance. And since
there has been more or less talk
about national security and mill
tary preparedness, it is not i'm.
pertinent to ask what of rail-
road preparedness"
Warfare calls for men by the
thousands and tens of thousands.
Our army and militia are insig-
nifcant as compared with
Europe's hosts, and are scattered
at large throughout the country.
In the event of simultaneous at
tacks on the eastern and western
coast, our forces would have to
be rushed to various points and
by various routes to repel such
attacks but how?
Has any investigation been
made TO determine if our rail-
roads have adequate facilities
for such an emergency? Do the
tracks necessary for this service
exist? Would the commerce of
the country come to a standstill
by reason of the withdrawal of
the necessary rolling stock to
meet such an emergency?
Would existing schedules yield to
the call of arms, or admit of en-
forcement concurrently with the
movement of our troops? Would
existing terminals serve our pur-
pose in such a crises, or should
we have additional ones for spe-
cific military purposes?
From the dearth of new rail-
road building in this country in
recent years, from the existing
freight congestion, and from our
very small proportion of double
track, it is extremely improbable
that our railroads would prove
equal to such a strain as that out
lined; and 1t is a certainty that
they could not render their ac-
customed service to commerce
coincidently with military de-
mand.
England, France and Germany
furnish us examples of railroad
operation as an efficient auxiliary
in time Of war? The respective
governments take over the trans
portation systems and operate
them with military precision and
discipline. Is our Federal gov
ernment prepared to do as much?
A preliminary to this end, and
seemingly the only feasible plan
in sight, would be the Federal
incorporation of our railroads,
and the unification of our over
regulated system under one re-
sponsible authority with power
to command respect and obedi-
ence in every state. Contributed.

market, and hence declined and
refused to take and pay for the
same. AS before stated; he
having submitted his bid subject
to the approval of his attorney,
there was nothing left for me to
do, under the advice of attor-
ney representing the County,
except to deliver to him his tive
per cent check. This was done,
and this transaction was thus
ended.
After this time, 1 received
other bids for the said Time
Warrants, but after repeated eff
forts on my part and on the part
of those assisting me for the
county, | could not procure bid
of more than par for said Time
Warrants, and, in fact, bidders
were not at all anxious for said
Time Warrants, on account of
the fact that such Warrants are
not negotiable instruments, and
do not sell very readily on the
market. and not at all as readily
as bonds or negotiable instru-
ments. Being thus confronted
with the situation, which | dealt
with as patiently and as thor
oughly as | knew how, of not be-
ing able to secure a satisfactory
bid for said Time Warrants of as
much as I knew and was advised
said Warrants would be worth if
they were negotiable and in the
form of bonds, payable in one,
two, three, four and five years,
| reached the conclusion, after
discussing the matter with sew
eral members of the Honorable
Court, as we'll as other good citi-
zens of this county who were in
terested in the county's welfare,
that it would not be proper or to
the best interest of Henry coun-
ty for me to sell said Time War
rants without a premium on the
same, which | think ought to be
as much as $2500.00 or $4,000. 90,
and possibly more. was adj
vised that in as much as the Leg
islature of this State would as
semble again the first of the
year, 1917, that an Act could be
drawn and easily passed, en-
abling Henry county 10 issue ne
gotiable bonds in lieu of said
Time Warrants, in order to raise
the said $65, 100000, which would
be greatly to the interest of the
county. in as much as we would
be able to realize a good premi-
UNI on the sale of such bonds.
| beg leave to further report
that the matter was discussed
With the Governor of the State,
who is also a citizen and tax
payer of this county, and he also
advised postponing the matter
until the first of the year, when
said Act would be passed by the
Legislature, enabling the county
to issue these commercial papers
in the form of negotiable bonds.
Taking everything in consider
alton, and having but one point
in view, and that being to serve
the best interest of the county
and its tax payers and this Hon
orable Court, | find that the
most of the parties holding the
present outstanding warrants
are willing to postpone payment
thereof until this Act can be
passed by the Legislature, and |
therefore respectfully suggest to
this Honorable Court that the
matter of selling said Time War
rants be revoked, and that an
Act be passed by the Legislature.

BILE in one, two, three, four and

TO RESPECTFULLY REPORT:
That shortly after the passage
of the resolution at the January
Term, 1916, as aforesaid, it be-
came generally known through
out a great many of the eastern
and southern states that said
Time Warrants would be offered
for sale on the market, and IS a
result of which, | received sever
al bids therefor, many of which
were bids submitted for bonds
rather than for Time Warrants
and finally on March, 1st, 1916 |
received a bid on said Warrants
of par, accrued interest and a
premium of $2375.00 which bid
was submitted by one Paul Petty,
of Spartenburg, S. c. and said
bid was submitted subject to
the approval of his attorneys,
and a check was deposited with
me for two per cent of said War
rants, or $780, 90. as an evil
dence of good faith of the Said
Petty that he would take and
pay for said Warrants upon ap-
proval by his attorney. After
various and sundry negotiations
with him and his attorney by me
and my attorney representing
the County, Mr.. Petty declined
to take and pay for said War
rants, mainly on the ground that
said Time Warrants were not
negotiable commercial paper,
and were therefore not worth or
