This announcement is in aoeor

Harrison to do everything poeslbW ??l
u" to dlacourage the movement of peo

^ deavored to discourage the offerinj I I
? of low oolonist rates from the South 1 |
inl and has only placed them on sale at
m polnta where It was felt necessary
tb to meet oompetition. From this
time on, however, no such rates will
be be offered by Southern Railway re'
gardleas of any action that may be
Jn taken by any other line. Southern
B. Railway will continue to offer home0j

ec do everything possible to encourag< ,
j the coming of desirable settlers to ^
iT[ the territory along Its Hnes. ^
a_ President Harrison feels that the .
South -offers greater opportunity ^
on than any other section and that pe* fctl)
tr_ T>le living In the South cannot hn roE
