TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 17. DM It will soon be time to use the sp log drag again. It is a fault begun in the days Adam to blame it all on the worn: The militant suffragettes evide ly think little knowledge is to gained from reading books, if we \ to judge by their recent burning the Carnegie library at Birminglia England. County Field Day Is little m< than a montli ahead of us. This just to remind our ambitious be and girls that those who are work! hard in preparation for the event v neyer have cause to regret it. Representative Lever, under s pension of the rules,'had -passed the" house yesterday, his bill app printing $500,000 for the extermli tion of hog cholera and $100,000 serum. The bill had already pass the senate. Lever is a congressm who does something besides draw salary*. Some good work was done 1 week on the streets of the town the use of the split log drag and hope for its continued use. Nothi else can be done which so improi the roads. The expense of using t drag is trittnig and the results ? wonderful. It should be used oft and regularly. But, City Fathers, gi some attention to the sidewalks well. i _______________ Governor Blease says, "My formation is that Dr. Saunders t been superintendent, board of gents, and all, that she has been t whole institution for some time pa I believe she runs the whole bu ness from top to bottotn." W< even tf she has, she is doing no m< than hat his excellency is trying do with the state government. ' The new council would receive l unbounded thanks of our citizens they would Improve the sidewalks a crossings. Since Main street is m< used than any other, we suggest tl a start be made, there. The busin part of town should receive the tention it deserves and the use cinders on the muddy places wo make walking easier during the n wet spell. As the time for the election United States senator in Alaba draws near, it becomes a matter keen interest as to who will chosen. Underwood or Ilobson. former has been steadily engager discharging his duties in the lo house, to which the people ele< him. while the latter has been negl ing bis duties in Washington cavorting all over the state mis resenting his opponent. In the death of Senator A. Bacon of Georgia, not only his st ^ut the entire nation, has sustai ?n almost irreparable loss, Altho a Southern man, who had sei during the late war, he was hl| esteemed at the North, where high .character and statesman qualities were appreciated. He represented Georgia in the Uh States senate, uninterruptedly, fo: years, and at the time of his d< was chairman of the foreign i tlons copimlttee, one of great 1m tance, especially at this time, loss is felt keenly by President ' son. . . ; - ?

J And the fight has been made against 1 11 great odds.

II J FOREST NOTES. Receipts from the use of national forest resources were greatest In Arizona last year. Dr. C. D. Harsh of the federa.' bureau of plant Industry is delivering a series of illustrated lectures to s'.ock, men in the west on the subject of plants poisonous to stock. The Baltimore forest school, established in 189 8 and therefore the oldest forest school in America, has been discontinued. Dr. C. A. Schenck, its director, has returned to his home - In Germany. The forest service is compiling a new volume table for calculating the board contents of standing western yellow pine trees in the southwest. It is based on actual measurements of 8,000 trees. In trying to find uses for blightkilled chestnut it has been found that it can not be utilized for crating stone; quarry owners say that chestnut wood leaves an indelible stain on the marble or granite. Railroad caused nearly half the forest fires in Colorado and Wyoming last year, and almost one-sixth were set by lightning.
