WANING OF THE HORSE.

Dr.. Rowe Predicts Its Practical D'sap'
pearance From Roads In Ten Years.
Another ten years will see national
road systems covering every section OF

step in the direction of preparedness
that could be made" says DR.. IL. NJ
Rowe, the newly elected president OF
the American Automobile association.
"In a decade we shall begin to have
separate roads for freight traffic and
passenger traffic. and the horse and
mule will have practically disappeared.
Our present highways will be greatly

GA New Orleans special to the New

of 10000 Celestial laborers here in time

"On the night OF the 18th Gen. Grant
visited Woods Theater in Cincinnati
and was called on by large number OF
Radicals, headed by one Baker. Without
giving Baker time to make his wishes
known, Grant approached him and said:
Sir, am no politician. The President
is my commander-in-ch | consider
this demonstration in opposition to the
President of the United States, Andrew
Johnson. You will take your men away.
| am greatly annoyed at this demonstra-
ton" cat this time Andrew johnson
was trying to restore the Union without
the hardships and outrages to the South
which came later. Two years after the
foregoing incident Gen. Grant was
elected President, and as such carried
into effect all those schemes and severe
measures known to this day as carpetbag
rule and robbery of the South. If he
was opposed to such measures in 1866 1t
now seems strange that he carried them
out later as President. But, in truth,
one must view those times in the light
Of those days. Congress was Radical
and a majority of the people OF the
North were Radicals. 1t is but fair to
say that Gen. Grant did the Best he
could and no worse than Lincoln would
have done. His influence as Preslden,
was greater than that of Lincoln hac
ever been, but SO intense was the feeling
that he yielded to it. The writer ha;
long believed that those who though
Lincoln could have restored the South
to her place in the Union after the wa
without the severity Of the reconstruc
ton that came upon the country afte
his death were mistaken. His assassi
nation certainly intensified the feeling
against the South, if that were possible
but he had never proved himself able t.
thwart the Radical clement in his party
IL fact he was elected as a Radical an
his acts grew more Radical with tn
streng hening of his party until the end
HIS plans for reconstruction, as reported
were liberal. but it is we'll known tina
they were not the plans of his party
He was never considered a strong ma
