Dixie vs. Canada New Immigration Scheme Washington, D. C-. June 23. ? The speech of Hon. Joseph F.. Ransdoll. of Louisiana, entitled "On to Dixie," delivered before' Coheres*. Juna 14, Is now being put in -pamphlet form for general distribution. The reason for Its preparation is the activity of the Canadian govern ment In tempting American cltlzonj sto try their fortunes In the far north where the -short growing season prevents more t&an one croiT a year. Mr. Ranadell. as president of the .Na tional Rivers and Harbors Congrow, has beeir accustomed to consider na tional questions and his explanation of the national opportunity thiLiefcts In the South Is authoritative.^-* The speech, as delivered, is. sup plemented with a number of valuable, appendices, from various source^ to sustain the urgost plea of M*. RAns dell that our people who are unset tled In their conditions should tint Investigate the great Southern States before turning to regions of lees na tural resource. An \ appendix pre pared by Richard rt: Bdmonds shows in a statistical table, the progress of the South In fifty years. Another appendix that brings out many re markable evidences af Southern growth. Is that prepared- by the Southern Com mere I at Congress. Petroleum production, as shown in this appendix, ia the roost startling of all Increases. In 1876 the South produced 120,000 barrels; in 1903. 74, 10C, 648. . Lumber production In the South era States in 1908 Is shown, by this appendix, to have exceeded, for the first time In history, the lumber pro duction of all the other Statea In the Union put together. School expenditures, as analyzed by the Southern Gommerolal Con gress. are shown to have Increased 110,000,000 between the years 1907 and 1908. The total educational ex pense in the Southern States for the last montioned year was |62.0tr? $69. The Southward awing of comtrerce is shown by the fact that between 1899 and l909^Mextcari border ports increased 149 per cent. Oulf and South Atlantic ports together 217 per -cent, pacific ports 87 per c_e:it, North Atlantic ports 69 l>er cent. Ex port gains of the same period show Mexican border ports 71 per cent, Oulf and South Atlantic porta to gether 51 per cent, Pacific ports 24 per cent. North Atlantic -porta l i per cent. The speech and Its 'appenl'ces should .lie considered by erery man in the United States who la inter uted In understanding the relation of the Softth to national strenrth SPECIAL ATTRACTIONS FOR ,;gj: m TONIGHT B?t 10c. yar^l-wfde Bleaching {not ow lt Jtrat to ?

J^TtOU N\ AUMII. It Is rather surprising to learn from official estimates that , in 1910 South Carolina's crops of cotton, corn, wheat, oats, barloy. rye, buck wheat', flaxseed, rice, protatoes, hay md tobacco aggregated more than North Carolina's, although North Carolina led Virginia by not far from fifty per cent and Tennessee by n fair margin, in 1899 the two States stood: North Carolina. $53,214,000: South Carolina, $51,324,000. In ^1909 the standing was: South Caro lina, $109,013,000; North* Carolina, $103,148,000. South Carolina has an area considerably !e8s than three fl'fths a? large as North Carolina's land a population little more than two-thirds as large. Moreover^ of South Carolina's population nearly [ Ithree-fllfths are negroes, while North Carolina's negro population is in the proportion of slightly less than one-^ third. To be sure, North Carolina has much larger areas of mountain and coast land which have not "yet been made productive, but, after all allowances. South Carolina's record remains the better. it behooves North Carolina farmers to catch the, pace which south Carolina Is setting. TONIGHTS BILL AT THE GRM.

Speak U| on the "high cost of living, ' be fore the Minnesota Bankers' Associa tion today. President W. C Brown, of the New York Central Uaes. quot ed statistics to show the Increase In the cost of all products of the farm, factory and mines, and then said In part: "Economists agree that ?a the ba sic metal (fold) lncr In Quan tity, the price of everything meas ured by and paid for with that metal Invariably enhanced In value. "For this reason the pay of labor has steadily advanced and must con tinue to advance In some fair ratio With the Increased cost of thtagi that labbr must buy. To put It another way, wages must go up In about the same proportion that the purchasing power of the money of the lsborer goes down." After discussing the increase in gold production the speaker said: "Unquestionably this great Increase |ln the production or gold has power fully influenced the vslues of every thing in which men desl. "Everything save wsges, railroad rates and fixed Incomes from long time securities, continuously and ?T moflt colncldently adjust themselves to the changing conditions resultant upon this Influx of gold." Mr. Brown then spoke of "the alarming rapidity with which the' consumption of the products of the, nation's farms is overtaking produc tion." and continued: "When the day comes that this na tion falls to produce sufficient food toJ supply our own people, when we no longer send the products of our farms abroad,' bringing back the gold froton foreign nations ? what will be the cost of .living In this country, pnd where will the money come from to meet the cost? "1 am In favor of an adequate navy, hut I wish the money expended in building just one battleship could be devoted to this work of Improved, Intelligent agriculture. "What one battleship costs would establish two splendid agricultural experiment or demonstration forms In every State-in the Union and 1 will guarantee If this is done and the work Intelligently and energetically carried out, that ps a result of it, the value of the increased: product of the nation's farms within ten years buy and pay for" eveir battleship of every navy that ftoafs on salt water TOflry:***- - ? .v ^ V IIOOHKVKI/T QUITS POLITIC.*. | Declares He May Never Make Anoth er Political Speed*? Still Roceiv I Inn Old Friendw? Guest of l lie Harvard Club. j New York. June 23. ? "I don't know that I shall ever make another ! political spe^ph." said Theodore I Roosevelt today. The colonel had just popped out of his editorial office late In the af ternoon, his collar wilted with per spiration and hiB face red from the heat. He saw a group of Interview ers and stopped. They told him that his first' politicad utterance was awaited with the greatest lnter?*sc ? and when, please, would he make it. "I have no Idea when I shall make a political speech," he replied. "1 shall make no speech of any kind for two months, and my first speeches In Kansas City, Chepenne, Milwaukee and Chicago, wftl have nothing to do with politics. I don't know that I shall ever make another political jpeech."? __ "What, never?" some one ex claimed. "I don't say 'never'," he corrected. "I simply don't know." But speeches or no speeches con ferences will continue. Gifford Pln chot and James W. Garfield, ex-Sec retary of the Interior, will go to Oys ter Bay tonight to spend the night. Two or three of the Rough Riders will be the colonel's guests at lunch eon tomorrow. They will return two' regimental fiagB which Col. Roose velt loaned them for use in the re union today. Mr. Roosevelt did not reach hlg editorial office until 10:38 o'clock. The place was boiling all day long. Interviewers, photographers, old friends and people bent on evpry sort of mission beselged 1L At 1 o'clock the colonel left bis offices for the Harvard Club where , there was two hours ot yarn spinning across the luncehon table. . As he entered the dining soon, the orchestra struck up "What's- -the Matter With rather" and every t.ough Rider, standing In his chair, joined In the chorus. Just as he was leaving the club the police raided a group of boys who had clambered up the fire escapes .to look at "Teddy." but Col. Roosevelt interceded and no arrests were made. Among the guests at theTuncheon were Wa. a. learned and Robert D. Wrenn, former .tennis champions; "Dave" Goodrich, ""Harvard's '18, the oarsman and rough rider, John C. Gresnway, an old fodtbail player, a number of polo playera and several members ot the New York Stock Bx change. After the luncheon Cot Roosevelt (feint an hour at his editorial (Mice RUSSIA UNO JAPAN UNITE TO RULE r . \ War's Scan Are Healed, and Czar aad Mikado Bind Themselves to Walk Hand In Hand in Far East Under the Guidance of Uncle Sam. Washington. Jun? t4. ? After fif t??n T*r? of bitter anugooltm, which finally culminated to a bloody war, followed since by more or ^ua dissatisfaction over their hold^H there, Ruaala and Japan hare by means of a binding treaty to jBp hands and Interest In Chlaa. The treaty la to go Into effect as soon as signed In duplleate. This action on their part, which was ratified today In detail at St. Petersbarg. Is to guarantee the sta tus quo In the Par Bast State De partment officials are highly elated over It. No foreign powers are concerned In this Russo-Japanese agreement, which affects only the contracting parties, although nothing In the treaty prevents any other nation from co-operating with the two em pires In extending the Influence of the same Oriental policy. Masctmrlts Rail* ays. The question of Manchurlan rail ways comes In as the most Important article. This was agroed to today In detail, showing that the neutralisa tion of their noldlngs can be effected at some early daie after due diplo matic exchange. The Inclusion of this provision Is an echo of the proposal of Secretary of State Knox to neutralise the Man churlan railroads, although Russia and Japan In their treaty go a step farther, " , Russia agrees to consider favor ably the neutralisation of all the Chinese railway lines, whether own ed by- China or private corporations, Chinese or foreign, subjecting them to sheriff regulations In times of war. limiting their use by the belligerents ?ad^deflnlng their movements. \ The treaty itaelf Is an intensive document, which permit*- no ambigu ous Interpretation. The general contents or the treaty Otherwise are as was exclusively pub lished by the World June 10: Pro viding that Russian and Japanese cooperation In sny future undertak ing in China; the consideration of the United States as a friendly pow er; that differences between the .two empires shsll be submitted to the United States for arbitration; that Japan dooms China's commercial and financial exploitation by foreign cap italists a good thing; that they have no lptcntlon of retaining their Man cCYmhn i&Hways; that, {ill disputu* arising in their diplomatic exThariipe' about China shall be deferred for later consideration without endang ering pending matters; that the pro mulgation of the Chinese consitution Is agreeable; that any sale of the real or assumed holdings of the rail ways In China shsll not affect China's coincidental sovereignty over thorn; that the Portsmouth peace treaty Ih supplemental to this later treaty and Anally, that Japan and Russia pledge their friendship. Xcwn Surprise*! Washington. The incidental publication of these articles occasioned no little surprise in Washington, and ut the State De partment thorn has been a feeling of uncertainty because the Porta mouth treaty of 1905, agreed to un der the eyes of President Roosevelt, who made it possible, Is to be abrd gated. Secretary Knox, on the contrary, has been unusually pleased because of this provision. He has gone on record several times as saying that the treaty was not as satisfactory as was expected or might be wlahed. Even -HUice it wss drawn Russia and Japan have contested many points in their respective attitudes in China. Japan objected strongly to the forti fying of the Northern Manchurlan railwaya and roads, considered im portant by Russia for military rea sons, while Russia had similar ob jection to the Jspsnese mobilisation of troops within the boundaries of the Southern part of the province of Manchuria. Russia's motive for neutralising the entire Chinese system of rail roads Is due to the confidence that such a step would be agreeable to Japan bls well as to the United States.
