Is one of the largest land owners to be
affected and benefited by the proposed
Improvement and he, together with '
other land owners to be benefited, are
now and have been for several years
past greatly damaged and our lands
.rendered almost valueless by the flow
of waters thereon through the crop
ping season. Said lands comprising
many hundreds of acres adjacent to the
said ditch, could he brought to the
highest productive capacity by the pro
posed improvement, while the cost to
the land- owners for making the same
would be comparatively small to the
benefits to be derived.

NEGLECT THE RIVER ROUTES
Writer in Everybody's Magazine Calls
Attention to What He Con
siders a Mistake.
There lies St. Paul, within a ten
mile freight haul of the Minneapolis
flour mills, which send 7,000,000 bar
rels of flour to Europe every year
and not a barrel of it goes down the
grand old avenue to New Orleans and
away by the gulf, says a writer in
Everybody's. And there is Minneapo
lis herself with yearly a -larger store
of wheat to draw upon, and English
milling competition growing keenet
every year only ten miles away from
an unbroken river channel. But never a
cent is spent to bridge that ten miles
and Increase the city's prosperity by
putting its flour more cheaply into the
rich cotton fields of Georgia and South
Carolina, running from this land of
bolls and factories to the greatest of
our cotton ports and carrying scarcely
a bale of goods or a bale of cotton
down to export. And there is the
Ohio, bragging of its wonderful coal
fleets, which might be run for halt
their cost and with greater safety
the Ohio, bearing a few creaking, dir
ty packets so old that in Maine they
would be called "old he ones." messing
along the bank, picking up freight out
of the mud of the shore and dumping
more into it, days off schedule, unlit
and absolute unfittable for anything
like modern traffic.
A P. F. Collier Epigram.
The late P. F. Collier, the noted pub
Usher and horseman, once discussed
at a publishers convention the odd
case of Ambrose Blerce, who in Eng
land is regarded as an author of genius
whose "Chickamauga" Is said to b
the finest story ever written in Eng
nab while here at home Mr. Blerce
is not half as renowned as, say, Win
ston Churchill.
Mr. Collier ended with an epigran
at once true and sad.
"Mr. Blerce is fortunate, for It fro
quently happens," he said, "that th
prophet who is without honor in hii
own country can't afford to go abroad.'
He Knew.
