President Will Go to the Isthmus. President Roosevelt will visit the Isth mus of Panama early In November. It has been his earnest desire, ever since the United States acquired possession of the canal zone, to see with his own eyes the great ditch nnd the gigantic work tho engineers nro pushing forward. He regards the Panama canal ns the greatest enterprise that this country has ever undertaken, and as Congress has given the work wholly Into his hands he be lieves It Is his duty to Inspect It nnd be come fully conversant with the nctual de tails as they are on the ground and not as they nppear on paper. Ho feels that ho can learn moro, about the canal In a three weeks' trip to the scene than he can by reading volumes or spending weeks In consultation with those who have been on the ground. The trip will be made In one of the big battleships. Secretary of War Taft will probably accompany the President, while Chairman Shonts of tho canal commission will net as personal escort, nnd Chief Engineer Stevens and assistants will meet the party nt Colon. and East branches, where It will cross tho East branch and follow tho east bank of the West branch Into Somerset.

The mills will be opernted an tno year round, and with an annual mill ca pacity of 20,000,000 feet, which It Is ex pected' will be maintained, there Is timber enough In sight to warrant tho belief that the business will continue for 30 or 40 years on the scale Indicated. Natural reforestation probabilities. In fact, make tho contemplation of any time limit to the industry superfluous. In addition to the heavy lumber Indus try that will be maintained and largely Increased by the recent acquisitions of the Doerfleld Lumber company and by the new railroad, there Is every reason to believe thnt Wilmington must soon be come the location of new and Important hard wood working factories. There are millions of feet of hard wood thnt will be made available by the opening of the railroad. That wood must be, manufac tured and Wilmington is the natural sit uation for the shops that will work It With Mountain mills giving employment to a crew of 100 men all the year around; with a far greater number of woods men employed In tlic forests than ever before and with prospective nauitionai smaller mills n -practical certainty In the near future, the Importance of what Is now going forward Is not difficult to realize.

Contractors have been here making estimates on the ties, and It Is understood that tho rails have al ready been ordered. There Is every In dication that Oils year's work will be pushed with a rush and the road made rendv nt this earliest possible moment River driving will not be entirely abandoned by the Lumber company, but will be continued on the East branch In addition to the haulage by train from the other territories controlled by tho company, ns there Is n large body timber on that stream which can handled more satisfactorily by water.
