XXIV A NO. 57 "This Argus o'er the people's rights Doth an eternal vigil keep ; TIE SOUTH'S The Heart of the May Well Glow with Pride as They A Parallel That Puts to Defamers of a Land That the Crucible of War and the Intrigues of Hate Have Relentlessly Sought to Impover ish, But in Vain. The monotony of debate In the , House of Representatives on the sub ject of the tariff was relieved, some i time since, by certain charges against she South's thrift and industry, on the fWrt of Mr. Calderhead, of Kansas, and tb reply thereto by Mr. T. U. Sis softs, .of Mississippi. Jt ifos not too much to say that a i more pushing rejoinder was never made fcifhe halls of Congress, and all i the more. .go because the argument in . behalf of the South consisted of cold i facts and figures, taken from the offl . cial records, presented in a calm and . dispassionate spirit in which there twas no trace of bitterness. .The heart of the Southern people imay well glow with pride when they iread the record of their achievements, sand reflect that they were accom plished in the faee of the . most tre mendous odds with which a people ever had to contend. These facts and figures should be preserved and should be given the widest possible dissemination, so that when siext a flippant critic assails the industry of the South, the sons of the South may he prepared to make an swer, Mr.. e&i&efhel glorified the achievements of "frost-bitten New England," and asked sarcastically what the South had done with its rich "inheritance. "It is time," he said, "for the children of a rich land to Vo T.atiiivna In hand anil em f& .the fields of toil and begin to pro and manufacture for them selves" X more baseless and unhappy blun der was never made on the floor of the House than this public utterance. We shall not pause to develop the I argument presented by Mr. Sisson, In which he showed that the South was I true to her "traditions," preferring to 1 stand by them rather than to go oyer I to the party whose policy robbed the poor In the interest of the rich and to I build up one section of the country at I the expense of the other. It was one of the most powerful arguments in favor of a revenue tariff ever made in Congress. But It Is our present purpose mere-1 Jy to preserve the facts as to what the rsouth has accomplished, in spite of I her triple handicap of war, recon-1 struction and protection, not to speak wot the Infamous pension system. I j Mr. Stason drew a graphic picture 6f the JSouth's. supremacy before the I .wrar H showed, in the first place, I ithat in I860" the population of the wo otinroximatelv thirtv-one " - i imillions. The nooulatlon of the South iAtithat tim was but little more than! t:nH.A.half millions, of which num- - - - ' I cIt nrurt vn-1 lUQT. OUI, 111UC U(WV l,li "half millions were white. Pear In mind, throughout, therefore, I tnst he had but 20 per cent, of the J white population of the country. I The South was not a grain country,! and yet In I860 she raised forty-five million bushels of. wheat, while the! rest of the country raised but one nun-1 dred and twenty-five mill tons. She! raised three hundred and fifty-eight I million bushels of corn, while all the J rest of the country raised but four! hundred and seventy-two-million three I hundred thousand bushels. I In 1860 the value of the livestock in the South was four hundred and iSixty-eight millions, and In all the -rest of the country only six hundred! tind forty millions, and yet the South -' never claimed to be a livestock coun try. In 1860 the South raised twelve and -ra half million pounds of wool, and all the balance of the country only forty- eight millions, and yet the South was not a wool country. :j " In 1860 the value of the animals slaughtered in the South Was eighty- five millions, and in all the balance of the country only one ' hundred and twenty-eight million five hundred thousand, and yet the South was, not .An animal country. In 1860 the South raised three hun dred and fifty-one million five hun- drprt thousand pounds of tobacco, and all the balance of the country only RECORD Southern People Read It. Shame the Political seventy-seven million pounds. In 1860 the South raised one hun dred and eighty-seven million pounds of rice, and all the rest of the coun try none. In 1860 the South raised three hun dred and two million pounds of sugar, and the balance of the country none. In 1860 the South , raised thirty eighty million bushels of sweet pota toes, and the rest of the country only three million bushels. In 1860 the South raised five mil lion one hundred and ninety-six thou sand bales of cotton, and the balance of the country none. In 1860 the value of the farms of the South was two billions and a half and of the balance of the country only four billions and a half. Thus we see that with only one third of the territory and one-fifth of the white population of the country in 1860, we raised over forty per cent, of the corn, over twenty per cent, of the wheat, over forty per cent, of the livestock, over twenty pre cent, of the wool, over forty per cent, .of the ani mals slaughtered, all of the tobacco, rice, sugar and cotton of the country. - In 1860 the South had nine thousand eight hundred and ninety-seven miles of railroad, while the New England and Middle states combined had three hundred and eighty-seven miles less. In other words, the South, prior to and including 1860 had invested three hundred million dollars of her own money in railroads. The gentleman from Kansas was pe culiarly unhappy in citing the South to New England in a spirit of "Go to the ant, thou sluggard," when the facts are that in 1860 the state of Georgia alone had more wealth than Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont and Rhode Island combined ! Thirty per cent, of the banking cap ital of the country was in the South with twenty per cent, pf the white population, remember, Mississippi was richer than Con- necticut by one hundred and sixty million dollars. The gentleman from Kansas was not I aware, perhaps, that in 1860, exclud- mg tne negro trom tne population, South Carolina stood first and Missis sippi second in the per capita wealth of the country. Even including the negro in the population, South Cfl.ro- Una stood third, Mississippi fourth, Massachusetts fifth, Louisiana sixth and Georgia seventh, in per capita wealth, while New York stood twenty- I second and Pennsylvania thirtieth, When the war came these Southern ! : : .: i people only one-fifth of the white people of the country owned forty five per cent, of the wealth of the -v.. I nnnntrv J " I And then came four years of de- struction, during, which the South susj tained a loss of two billion dollars in money, while she lost the flower of her manhood. The census reports show that in 1860 the real value of property in the! Southern states was six billions and a half, while in 1870 it had fallen to four billions and a half. " The war which impoverished the South enriched that "frost-bitten New England," to which the gentleman from Kansas points us. I In I860 the value of the property in j New England was less than six bil- lions. Ten years later it had soared! to the stupendous sum of fifteen bil- lions. While the South became, fifty per cent, porrer, as the result of that! national tragedy, the New England states became two hundred and fifty per cent, richer. The period of reconstruction ' was I worse than war. And yet what is the reeord during that period? From 1870 to 1880 New England and the Middle states combined only inr creased their wealth from fifteen to seventeen billions, or thirteen per cent. i - Within that decade, during half of which time reconstruction with its paralysis of business prevailed, the South increased theirs sixty-four per cent. I All tula without an7 of the benefits) of protection, while we were being taxed to meet those charges. . It was only "after reconstruction that the destinies of the South were in her own hands, and the "figures be fore 1880 are hard to get, so begin ning with the latter year and taking a period of twenty-eight years, ending with last year, we find that the total value of manufactures in the South rose from less than half a billion to more than two and a half billions. . The capital invested in cotton mills increased eleven hundred and sixty nine per cent.; in cotton oil mills, more than twenty-two hundred per cent.; in lumber products, eight hun dred and thirty-seven per cent.; in pig iron., seven hundred and sixty-six per cent.; In petroleum, fifteen thous and per cent.; in farm products three hundred and forty-two per cent.; her property yalues, one hundred and six ty-five per cent. She had no hejp from the govern ment: but pensions gave to Ohio alone, in 1900, more than fourteen billion dollars, or oyer , three dollars and a half for every man, woman and child. In Maine it was four dollars per capita. To pay this sum Missis sippi contributed two million eight hundred thousand dollars, while she could spend but half that amount on her public schools. These are crushing facts tqjr the flippant, like the gentleman from Kan" sas. And they are a wonderful trib ute to the energy of the South, which has been able to do so much without government protection or government pensions. FOB WOMEN AND THE HOME.

THE BIRTHDAY OF "OLD GLORY" It Is Observed Wherever Americans Have Their Homes. 132 ANNIVERSARY OF FLAG In Many States It Is a Legal Hell and the Sentiment Is Growing ti Make It Gen eral In all America. Washington, D. C, June 14. Throughout the length and breadth of the United States, from the Atlan tic to the Pacific, from the Canadian frontier to the Gulf of Mexico, as well as in the detached American posses sions in Alaska, Hawaii, the Philip pine Islands and Torto Rico, patriotic Americans celebrated today the one hundred and thirty-second anniversa ry of the American flag, created by act of Congress on June 14, 1777. Al though not a legal holiday by national consent, Flag Day is perhaps more generally and more faithfully observ ed wherever Americans have their homes than any other day in the year, excepting Independence Pay, the "Glo rious Fourth," For many decades after the adop tion of the Stars apd Stripes the cel ebration of Flag Dtfy was principally confined to the official observance of the anniversary by the . Federal offi cials throughout the country and oc casional celebrations by patriotic so cieties and patriotic school teachers. But,- since the Civil War, which put the loyalty of the Stars and Stripes to the suprenie test, 'a wave of patriot ism swept oyer tne PPUPtry. Thp sen timent for the flag of the country grew stronger and with it the desire to hon or the symbol of Union and freedom by the appropriate observance of its birtlvday. The varhvs patriotic- asso-j ciations of the country combined their efforts to bring about a more general public observance of Flag Day and their efforts have been crowned with gratifying success. In six of the states, Illinois, Michigan, Connecticut, Wisconsin, Oregon and California, Flag Day has been proclaimed a legal holiday and there is every Teason to believe that other states will imitate this example. On every school house, from every Federal and other public building, and irom Hundreds of thousands of private buildings and homes Old Glory was unfurled this morning and every- where the anniversary of its birth was observed in an appropriate manner by patriotic exercises.' It is safe to say that no patriotic organization in the country neglected to honor the birth- day of the Stars and Stripes and no district or other school, even in the remotest parts of the country failed to teach a lesson of national pride and loyalty to the future citizens of the American commonwealth. The national capital, the birthplace of the honored flag, naturally made special efforts to observe the day ap propriately and there were few build ings if any, public as well as" private, that did not display the Stars and Stripes. Flags of every dimension, from the enormous emblems on the government buildings, to the diminu tive flags adding cheer to the other wise dismal aspect of the cottages of the poor, were displayed in all parts of the 'city and Pennsylvania avenue, the majestic thoroughfare, leading to the Capitol, was a perfect blaze of the national colors. In all the public and private schools exercises were held in commemoration of the flag's birth and the various patriotic organizations, in cluding the G. A. R., the Sons of Vet- erans, the Woman's Relief Corps, the Spanish War Veterans, the Sons of the Revolution and many others, observed j the day by holding memorial celebra- I tions with speeches, singing and mu sic. The American flag of the present day, although unlike the original flag made by Betsy Ross in Philadelphia, after a sketch by George Washington, in May 1777, is merely an elaboration! and augmentation of the original. Congress decided, "That the flag of the United States be thirteen stripes, alternate red ana white; that tne un- ion De imrteen stars, wnue in a piue field, representing a new constella tion. At first itwas decided to add j a new stripe and a new star for every new state admitted to the Union, But, when the number hd reached twenty, Congress, in Ibis, decided, upon careful deliberation . to adopt the plan suggested in a bill by Representative Peter H. Wendover, ".'of New York, and order the flag to be ''thirteen hori zontal stripes alternate Ted and white, with a' union of twenty white stars in a blue field It was also ordered that one, star be added for every hew. sja' admitted and that the new flags t go into effect on the fourth olk$&' next following such admission. VV The first flag made in Philadelphia was afterward raised on the "Raiger," John Paul Jones' valiant- battleship. The first fort on which the Stars and Stripes were raised was 'Fort Stanwix, Rome, N. Y., and the first battle fought under the Stars and Stripes was that at Brandywine, September 11, .1777. Before the adoption of the Stars and Stripes flags of various designs were used by the American patriots. Fam ous among them were the' Massachu setts "Pine Tree, the "Cambridge," the "Tiger," the "Putnam," the "Three Crescent" and the Moultrie" flags. Vote on the Tariff. Washington, D. C, June 14. Sena tor Aldrich said today he has no rea son to change his -opinion that the tar iff b;l! will- be in the hands of con ferees by July 1. Several set. speeches began this week and several amend ments will be offered, and the. leaders say it is out of the question to expect a vote on the passage of the bill Sat urday. The income tax amendment is set for a vote on Friday or later if it comes up. It may be -debated several days. If the finance committee amend ment has not been disposed of at that time, however, the income . tax - will again go over. . Kenly, -N. C, June 14. Frank Craw ford, a white man, Who -. lives some six miles south of Kenly, was killed at his home this morning by his son -Hymen Crawford. The father had threatened to kill the boy and his mother, and the boy went to the woodpile nearby, picked up the axe and going up to his father, struck him, killing him instantly. A coroner's inquest will be held today and it is generally expected that the verdict will be that of justifiable killing. So far as we can learn the reputa tion of Crawford was bad, and his sen has much sympathy. - - '. National - Educational Association, Denver, Colorado, July " h to , 1909. Prof. F. C.

Ex perimental ammunition has been made by the ordnance department of the army for tests, with' a view to ascer taining if it is advisable to adopt a heavier-projectile for the musket. The ammunition has been sent to the Springfield armory and the school "of musketry for the firings. The pres ent bullet weighs 150 grains. The' ex perimental ammunition Includes bul lets weighing 160 grains, 170 grains, ISO grains and 200 grains. It is ap preciated that the heavier bullets "will be subject to less deviation on account of wind influences. On the other hand, with the present powder charge, which gives a pressure" of; 52,000 pounds per square inch-, the hearrier the pullet the greater will1 be the arc of flight. The lighter bullet, there fore, has a flatter trajectory and a greater danger area. If the weight of the bullet is changed a great amount of work will he involved in readjust ing gun sights and computing new range tables. Again Set Aside. Washington, D.

LUTHER TESH Told of the-Great Work of the Baraca and Pliila thea LTovement AT FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH latllies Progressive Hc;hts Ti Ibtali i lTorkiig Class anl In - Ilaence Kembers to Live i Christian Life. A gbod-Sized audience : : heard Mr. Luther McCray'Tesh, freTd secretary of the Baracai, "deliver an address in the First Baptist Church Friday night. While here Mr. Tesh was the guest of Mr. H. B. Parker, Jr. or nearly two hours Mr. Tesh succeeded in holding the attention of his audience, as he in a very interest ing manner, described the phenome nal growth of this great movement. The speaker quoted from a number of Vrominent educators, to show that "the Sunday School is the greatest force in America for the development of char acter. The significant fact was brought out that 95 per cent, of all ministers, church workers and missionaries come direct from the Sunday School, as well as 85 per' ceto. of all churcb members, thus showing the great pos sibility of. the Sunday School. Mr. Tesh declared that the Baraca movement-had been a factor in bringing about these results. "Founded on the three principles of win them to the class, 'win them to Christ' and put them to work'," said the speaker, "the movement has grown from one class, organized at Syracuse M. Y., by Marshall A. Hudson, October 10, '1890, to more than 2,700 with a combined membership of 500.000 which included the Philathea classes for young ladies,' which is run on the same principles as the Baraca." 4 After showing the significance of the name, pin, platform and motto ased throughout the world, the prac tical working of the class was taken up. Mr. Tesh described the methods used by the classes he had been con aected with, showing how to approach the young man on the street, invite lim to the class, leave with him a aice invitation card, write him a let er oh Friday, call "him over the phone m Saturday and go by and bring him fo the class on Sundajr. The work of the class committees vas explained by giving an idea of their reports before the class on Sun day. The committees are the hustlers, memberships, relief and society the first two to encourage good attend ance and' use every method to secure new members as well as hold what they have; the relief to look after the sick, help the members to get em ployment, good homes in which to live "and many, other good things that would be of value. A good social committee, the speaker declared, would help the social life of the young people to center around the church. The statement was very forcibly made that "our young people are go ing to be entertained, and if the church of God does -not furnish that entertainment the devil will." In describing the teaching of the lesson, the speaker stated that what the young people wanted most is something practical to help them live the religion they profess as ' they come in contact with men and women in the" shopfe, factories, on the streets. And describing the work of develop ing the young man mentally, physi cally and spiritually, during the week. Mr. Tesh closed his address by en couraging his hearers to do active Christian work by" winning their fel low men and women to Christ, one by one. He stated that in one class there had been 352 conversions in eighteen years, and in the Philathea class In the" same church more than 150, the membership of the church in- Creasing from 250 in 1890 to 1,151 in 1908.
