RAVEN ENT* %M PIItHIIKMI, Th** measure of a city’s progress and prosperity may lx Judged by its streets If they are well paved and kept in good order. It I# pretty g < and evidence of the public sp.rit and energy of the city fa , th* rs und the * i ii*-tw >;**rerally. If, on the j other hand, the coniitlon of the streets I# the opposite; If the paved streets are In bad repair, and a number of streets are merely long stretch* - - of sand betweo ’ rows of houses, the conclusion fo bo reached by logical process is that #one- I thing is lacking somewhere. Stretches of | s.ivml In the room of paved street# may le •■xcusable In country towns and village#, but they are out of place in modern cities which make pretensions to progress*ve nes. The present adminivtration of Savannah h.is made some show* of street laiviug on Gwinnett, Wheaton. President. nd Ht. Ju lien streets, and Park Avenue, and on a few blocks of Hull strict In the southern ••• lion, nnd what h *# been done has been very well don*-. Th#- vitrified brick pave ments laid are very creditable, and will no doubt give satisfaction. It though, that • p*4nt might be strained to do more work of the sain* kind Mu h more of it is needed.

Every cltlxen. f?on the wealthiest property own er to the humblest bootbrtck. feel# a pride In the beautiful, paved streets There Is a Rflflltt necessity for street Improvements In the southern section of the city. The paving of Jeffertbn street thould b** continued south to Twelfth street, and th*- deep sand of Barnard an*i Ats rcorn streets shouid be replaced with Vltlifled brick, asphalt or some other first class material. The majority of property owners and residents on those streets, as well as many of thas* on cross street.*, would willingly i*ay their proportion of the assessment for such improvement The street railway would also be much bene flted. not only by reason of the protection which thfj paving material would afford It?- tracks, but by the Increase In popula tion of the Koutnern section which would most surely follow the suggested improve ments. ThlH matter shouid have the favorable attention of every progressive alderman It seems that there are other items in tht? city budget which might be scaled down without HI results, and the money thus saved given to the Improvement of the streets. A\ F.STIW %T. Mr. A. J. Huston of Liverpool. England, who l credited with being "on?* of th*' best-known cotton experts In tlie world," h H J*i*4 completed his "customary tour through the Southern states for the pur pose of examining the cotton crop." A* New Orleans the other day Mr Huston gave out n summary for publication of the conclusions he had reached from hi# observations. These conclusions, while they may b accepted seriously In Liver pool and elsewhere in Great Britain, are likely to be regarded with amusement In this country by p* rsons who are familiar with the cotton situation. Mr. Huston thinks the stie of the crop has been considerably underestimated. In plade of a 9.000,0bb-bale crop he look* for one of 10.250.0 W, which may be still fur ther It r* <-* l if there D u late frost. He arrives at this conclusion, he says, from these reasons: "The slxe of the bolls, as compared with hist year. Is much larger, the yield per acre of lint Is much larger; the staple la everywhere superior to that of last year, and h* bales are heavier." Many of the planters say that picking Is ttlwut over, but Mr. Huston cannot ufree with them. He thinks the picking will ex tend over severe! weeks yei, und tlmt for some time cotton will continue So flow Into the market. The cry of scarcity of labor is one of the things which the Eng lishman cunrot understand. "The wages," ho soys, "are r a onabtv—S3 p* r day at al most nil th** plain at ?ons—-and It Is surpris ing that the people do not take advantage of this opportunity." In Alabama. Texas and Georgia he found tills shortage of lutior most acute, notwithstanding the of fer of |3 per day to cotton pickers. There are several points in Mr. Huston's statement which wall-informed cotton men will read with a smile, since they in dicate that his four has not been eminent ly successful in so far as gathering a lot of valuable facts Is concerned. If he Is looking for a crop of upw*ards of 10.2KMKN) bale?-, h doomed io disappointment. and those British or continental spinners who base their expectations upon his con clusions will be apt to And later that his bear estimates an* no more reliable than were thos** of Mr. Nelli last se?on.
