RIVERS AND HARBORS BILL.
There now seems every problllty
that there will be a fight In Congress
over the rivers and harbors bill.
s
When Chairman Bijrton, of the
Rivers and Harbors committee, ar-
rived from Europe some weeks since
he announced his lntentiob of Introduc-
ing the usual appropriation bill during
this session. Mr. Roosevelt having
intimated thai he wished a policy of
economy practiced at this session, the
administration organs at once set up
a howl of protest. Of course Roose-
velt wants an economical policy pur-
sued. as he feels that such a course
would enhance his chances of re-elec-
tion. He informed Speaker Cannon of
his desire that there be no appropri-
ations made except what the adminis-
tration considered absolutely
sary. The appropriations for rivers
and harbors could just as well wait
over until next year.
There Is a strong sentiment, how-
ever, In the East to aíd.J.he Louisiana
and Mississippi representatives In
their fight to secure recognition of the
claims of the Mississippi country for
an appropriation and it Is altogether
likely the pressure brought to bear
will be of such a nature that the ad-
ministration will be unable to turn
diwn the bill. If our Mr. Cooper can
secure th¿ aid of such influences—
and weJio not see why it cannot not
Ione—toward ^having his bill for
the spending of the appropriation to
deepen a channel from the mouths of
the Sabine and Neches rivers to and
connecting with the Port Arthur
channel, It is more than likely he can
get his bill passed.
This money has,, we understand,
been already appropriated, but like
the fund for the elimination of the
water hyacinths. It is. hard to get hold
or after being appropriated

THE REO 8HOE8.
Karen, vain and unruly, coveted a pair of red shoes and, deceiving her
blind guardian, secured them and started to church; but a stern angel met
her in the church yard and the shoes began to dance, and carried her away
through the woods, all the nlgl t dancing, until she came to the executioner's
hous and begged him to chop off her feet, as the shoes could not be removed.
She returned home on crutches and was very penitent, and an angel appeared
and forgave her, restoring her feet.
Where Is Karen?

nent Investment, calling for and de-
manding the issuance of bonds. The
neces- Times-Democrat, In an able editorial
on the Rivers and Harbors Bill, has
the following In reference to the theory
that the digging of the canal should
stop expenditures In other lines:
"The canal will be several years In
construction; and It will be a public
misfortune if. during all that time, we
are put on a starvation basis and
every demand for levees, harbor Im-
provement. public buildings, ete., is
met with refusal, on the ground that
the Panama canal is calling for so
much money that we can not afford to
give any for necessary home Improve-
ments. If the Panama Canal is to be
made an excuse for defeating a rivers
and harbors bill this year the issue
can not be Joined too soon. We want
the canal, but this is no valid reason
why Improvements needed- at .home
should be discontinued."
It Is stated as a fact that shorthand
was In use before the time of Christ.
No wonder our learned scientists have
had such a hard time trying to de-
cipher some of the writings they came
across. We can't read shorthand our-
selves.
A young lady from the village of
Lake Charles now visiting In Orange
paid fifty cents for a book on "The
Best Methods of Filtration," under the
mistaken impression that she was get-
ting a treatise on "The Best Methods
of Flirtation."

Excluding the complknv—iarf feature,
the main purpose of the Illinois Cent'
ral expedition was to educate compet-
ing lines regarding the unexcelled
transportation facilities possessed by
that company, and the possibilities
which lie In the development of the
8outh. Although progressive men,
the general passenger ' agents who
were on the trip were amased to learn
that the Illinois Central now practical-
ly has a double track system all the
way between Chicago and New Or-
leans and a rock ballasted rdadbed
with a few grades and curves, which
Is capable of accommodating an enor-
mous volume of traffic. They were
also surprised at (he phenomenal com- j
merclal and Industrial awakening j
which the South Is experiencing, and)
they will spread the news regarding
both facts for months to come.
In doing this they will be advertís- ;

In short. It has recruited a force of 100

Under railroad methods in vogue
prior to the era of "community of In-}

have been hailed as suicidal.—Chicago

and so well drained that I felt that °bange.
Orange must be a town of consider-
able consequence, at least from a resi-
dence or wealth point of view.

given It ln the past few days. 1 have
no doiibt that most men would be im-
pressed as wbb Mr. Frasch.
"Speaking of good roadB. the moat
I can say ln favor of it. perhaps, is to
give an Illustration of what occurred
In Caro, Tuscola county, Michigan. I
was born there and can remember
when most of the city was surrounded
with cedar swamps. These swamps
were gradually drained and little
cross-roads stores sprung up all
around Caro, which was the county
seat. These stores prospered and in
most instances the proprietors be-
came rich in land and mortgages.
About ten years ago the state of
Michigan, through an act of its legis-
lature, supplied the money for build-
ing a state ditch, which drained many
acfes completely.
"The county of Tuscola made a bond
IsBue and important roads were prop-
erty graded to take advantage of this
drainage system. Today the cross-
road stores still prosper and in many
Instances the banks of Caro have es-
tablished branches at these points,
and Caro has prospered Immensely.
Today it Is one of the most substantial
towns In the state, Bize considered,
all brought about by good roads. From
this It can be shown that the famer
comes to town more often or goes to
his trading post and as a matter of
fact this works no hardship for the
farmer—I mean he does not essential-
ly spend more money. It means that
the average farmer Is a good trader
when given good facilities whereby he
can reach the town.
"Good roads give the farmers more
opportunities and, given more oppor-
tunities, he absolutely makes our
country?" I think that every man who
Is Interested In the county's welfare
will lend hie assistance to the work
securing good roads and the money
spent thus will be the wisest money
ever spent by this county." JT\
