The question has been va- rirmalv answered, but the truth seems to reside in the fact that in some sections the South they make no special effort to attract immisration. What is worth hav ing is worth working for, but the South holds to the policy of the farmer who was too lazy to go after his cows, but sat down in hi ten acre lot and waited for them to back up and be milked o NOT SO BAD AS IT LOOKS. There were frequent fluctua tions in the stock market last week, and in many issues, we are oravelv informed "that new high & j levels for the year were estub lished on call loans." The con tinued marking down of values and increased interest rates were accompanied by a more intense degree of apprehension than has existed at any previous time dur ing the year. The investing pub lie and the speculative interests often committed to the bull side have been forced out of the mar ket till after the great crops are moved. In the mercantile trades, for exr ample, during last week of flurry and worry, "business got back in to its customary lively swing.' There were "good shipments of lumber and an improving move ment in coal." "Collections were reported satisfactory in all lines." There was an increase of nearly $10,000,000 in the surplus of the banks. The cotton market ad vanced. There was "increased activity in oil." "A prominent Wall Street banker and a Wood row Wilson advocate "believes that the market will show a dis tinct improvement from this time on," and "within the last few days there have been more 1 in quiries, if not actual orders, from outsiders regarding the intrinsic value and market possibilities ot a considerable number of stand ard as well as the so-called low- priced railroad and industrial is sues than has been noticed at any time since the severe decline in prices started some months ago." All of which is very interesting to the tender-foot (?) business world of the south which is not worrying anyway because the country was never more prosper ous and somehow or other it will work out with its credit unim paired and its "securities" worth all they can earn. OUT HERODING OLD HEROD. It recently developed in a neighboring state, that a corpora non lawyer already noiding a large retainer from one public utility company, accepted a like I retainer for a year's service from I a public utility company which I was in opposition to the other I in other words he put himself in I a position where if one of these companies sued the' other, he would be on both sides of the question holding money paid I .Him iu uiie years service iroru u; r - .f f I both defendant and plaintiff. In order Jo lift this charge of dupli city and hypocracy towards the public, the attorney, plead that though the people thought, that the two public utility companies were opposing each other, one I held preferred stock in the other, I and that he was virtually repro-1 senting on corporation one in terest, .- ;; ... . . - ., ,, ' v Naturally enough the bar as sociation of his own state. look ' the matter in hand. The two util- ity companies to save themselves from, the people' denied that, they have the 5m mutualnteret wmle.the attorney swears that he was given to so understand. : The disbarment of thia crook,' which of course took place, was justly applauded by the general public in behalf of the .honest citizen ship of the community. RED CROSS SEALS PROVIDE FRIENDS IN NEED A large, rugged-looking man stopped before a Red Cross beal booth "and looked at the display of seals with more than usual in terest.' And those will help the folks that are suffering with consump tion?" he asked. He was told that was the idea. "Then," he said, reaching down in his pocket, "here s where I get some seals. My wife, he explain ed, "died the year after we were married. She died of consump tion. We were so nappy, ana 1 had done everything I could for her, but I didn t have much money then, and times were hard. I lost my job, too, because I got to work so late. You see. I had the housework to do, and that took a lot of time, and they dock ed and finally fired me. I couldn't blame the company, but it was pretty hard. Right in the dead of winter, too! I could not get her the things I would have liked to, and there was no one to helj me. Xot a soul, for I was a stranger in a strange city, and so was my wife. She died in the spring," he added, ts a tear trick led down his face. "And now I'm going to buy some of these seals so some other poor fellov can get help if he needs it like .1 needed it." And he did. AT INDUSRIAL CLUB. Play ball, get in the game and bring your friends out to the in dustrial Hall, corner of Rankin and Commerce streets, Thursday night, Decembre 5, 1912.
