The woman suffrage amendment will be voted apes, and last, bst noeeihly most im portant to the state, the barge canal referendum, calling for a further ap propriation of $27,000,000 for the com pletion of the barKg.-canal system will be before the people at tbe polls. Barge Canala 90 Per Cent Finished- Tbe barge cdnals which have been under construction since 1905, a n nearly finished. Reporta of the en gineers .show that ab 5 >qtt, 90 per cent of the construction work has been completed and all of the great engi neering problems have been soived. It Is doubtful whether the people of tbe State appreciate either the magnitude of the work or the difficulties met with In construction. In order to build these canals, tt has been neces sary to harness ten great rivers. It also has been necessary to drain vast areas of swamp land, to create enor mous water storage reservoirs, ac quire water rights, rebuild railroad bridges and to do many other dim- cult things seemingly outside of canal construction. It must be remembered, also, that this work has been done In a thickly settled community, and net as at Panama, where land was of no value. Plans were made and estimates adopt ed for the barge canals In 1903. Since that year there has been a great in crease in the population of the state and, consequently, an advance. ir- real estate values.

T. Stewart to buy some goods. After some dickering they agreed upon the price, and »c Palmaffawd tL4- he would take ml about $100,000 worth. It was a lit tle larger bill than Stewart exactly cared to sell young Palmer on cred it, but he concluded to make the deal and told him to come in the next morning and arrange some final details. ^ ' I That night some big war news came, and it didn’t require any declaration by the government to inform every dry goods man in the country that the price of goods would take a big spurt up. Stewart recognized it » soon as he had the news, and he immediately thought of Palmer. He also thought of the big \Dili of goods Pelm et had bought of him. It didn't particularly tickle Stew art, that thought didn’t But it re quired only a few scratches of his red head to fix things to his satis faction. He would simply tell Palm er that he was sorry, but that he didn’t fesd that he could sell such a big bill on credit, and as he knew that Palmer couldn’t raise the cash immediately, why, that would end it, and the a l e would be off. Weil, young Palmer called early, and Stewart greeted him in his very abruptest manner, telling him how •oiry he was, etc., but really he d i w t think it wise business to ex tend credit for each an amount. “Just how much does the bill come to P* said young Palmer, seem ingly sorrowful-like. “Just $110,000,” Stewart replied, early and certain relief is found for the ailments to which all are subject—ailmenta due to defective or irregular action of the stomach, bowels—Lv the ■< 1 f kidney a or famous family world h a ever remedy, known.

It lias, however, added Immensely. to the state's as sets, as will become evident when the the abandoned portions of the old canal are sold. Furthermore, on ac count of the Increased cost of labor and materials, the expense of the re construction of railroad bridges, as well on account of the Increase to land values, and because the canals have been built larger than was at first contemplated, $27,000,000, in addition to the original appropriation vote'l by j the people of this state, will be re quired to complete the work and pay the Increased cost of labor and ma- : terials and for reconstructed bridges and for all the lands which It has been necessary to take, and tt Is this I question which the people are asked ( to determine at the coming election i Since most of these expenses have been Incurred and the additional lands have already beerf, taken the state la bound, In any event to pay for them and, if this proposed bond Issue should bv defeated, the cost will have to be paid for by direct\tax It is clear, therefore, that the real question be fore the people of tbe state this fall is not solely whether this money shall be spent, for moat of It has been spent, but whether It shall be paid by direct annual tax within the next two or tbrqe years, thus Increasing the bur Always glad to see way drop in. our friqnds.” „ I . v»Vt ' A Little Mixed. Uncle’ Bobby Caldwell, a unique character wbb represented a west ern Tennessee county in the state legislature some fifteen years ago, had a joint debate with an opponent who was contesting the nomination with him. Unde Bobby charged his | opponent with responsibility .for certain legislative acts which were not popular with the people of the i county. He said: “Who passed the infaihdus dog law ? Who is respon sible for that outrageous no fence law that requires a man to buy a rope and keep his cow tied to the frontpo: porch ? As Shakespeare said arid,” poirfting to hie oppo- ‘Thou art the man!’ ” . - ----- unto Da' nent. Save Money by Completing Canale Considerably over $100,000,000 oah been spent by New York state, and enough more work is under ccmtrac: to- make the total cost nearly 0,- 000,000 tor the new canals.
