a NEW CITY TO Be REckoNED
WITH

The Valparaiso Messenger is plac-
ing that municipality on the map in
gorgeous colors. Among a hundred
other attractive advantages noted by
is the following:
Recently the Men5iie Register issued
an industrial edition telling of the
greatness of Mobile There was an
article about the port facilities of the
city, and statement that the Govern
ment had expended more than nine
millions of dollars deepening the chan
mel of Mobile river so vessels drawing
30-feet could reach the city and load.
Right here in Valparaiso there are
many more feet in the harbor. BY
dredging East Pass a short distance
probably half mile-vessels draw
ing 30-feet can enter the harb0r of Val
paraiso, a harbor far better than that
of Mobile-a harbor where hundreds
of vessels could ride safely at anchor
while the widest storms ragged on the
Gulf. When the hurricane lashed
Galveston until ships and land wreck
age were mingled together, and hui
man beings were thrown far inland on
mighty waves, when Pensacola and
Mobile realized that wind and water
can wreck the work Of men, vessels
entered through East Pass and found
safe haven in the waters of what
now is known as Valparaiso harbor,
dozen miles away from the Gulf, pro-
tected by that great breakwater, Santa
Rosa Island. and then by land that
protects and shelters

meaning of billion
He said:
"A billion dollars! We talk about
it as if it is matter of small conse-
quence. Perhaps we will get an idea
of what it means il we will stop to
consider that if we stood silver dol
lars on edge, placed them face to face,
jammed them together, and laid them
from New York to Key West, 1,490
miles, we would have $1,000, 900 900.
One column of dollars pushed together
reaching from New York to Key West
gives $1,000, 10000 We put in those
ships another column of silver dollars
right alongside Of that. Then we put
still another column of dollars right
alongside Of that. So we have three
columns Of silver dollars laid on
edge and pressed face to face reach
ing from New York to Key West put
into these ships. 1t is proposed to
roll them into the Atlantic Ocean and
bury them like the body Of Alaric
and the remains Of Moses. SO they
can never be located hereafter. | do
