THE GREAT SOUTH.
ANOTHER NEW ENGLAND ENTHUsl-
Asst ON ITS POSSIBILITIES.
" A Region Better Than Any Other Section
Of the Country "A White
Mans Land.
LBy telegraph to the plspatoh.l

BALTIMORE, May 2s.-Hon. Edward At
hnson contributes to this weeks
issue Of the Manufacturers Record re-
view Of the South and its future. based on
his recent investigating trip through that
section. Mr.. Atkinson says that it may
almost seem officIous for him TO deal at
much length with the resources of the
South, but that his justification is found
IN the strange fact that in tho very heart
OF the eastern part of the United States, in
an area nearly "a large as that of
France, endowed with more varied
resources and with a better climate
imam almost any other similar area within
the limits Of our common country, which
Is very sparsely settled and was until few
years ago scarcely known TO New England
people. The time has now come he
says, for men to comprehend that there
lies at our door a very large area of almost
unoccupicd territory capable Of being made
the home of millions Of intelligent and III
uustrlOus families. Ii IL a territory capable
OF supplying meats. fruit. and vegetables
IN almost measurelcss abundance where
yet a large part of the grain and meat are
imported from the West
THE APPALACHIAN REGION.
Mr.. Atkinson confines hrs review mainly
10 the great Appalachian region Of the
South, from the Potomac to North Ala
bama and from the Piedmontregion TO the
bluegrass district of Kentucky. OF this
section he SAYS: "One might spend
months instead Of days in making observa-
tons Even then, unless the trip were ex-
tended beyond twelvemOnth, only halt
the story might be told. Great as the
work on exploration has been during the
last ten years the half has not yet been
told Of this imperial series Of deposits Of
coal and probably OF iron, 20 say
nothing Of the other resources Of
this part Of the Southland. Almost
any attempt to forecast the future of this
part OF our common country becomes a
mere vision. The whole area Is 50 much
elevated above the level of the sea as TO
be IN the true sense a white mans country.
This mountain and plateau section pos
sessts a climate IN which any kind of work
NAY be performed by white or black alike.
In some port .Ons of the area described are
probably 20 be found the best conditions
Of climate. of soil, OF humidity and RAIN
fall. and Of all tic other elements which go
20 make stalwart men and women"
THE soUrH's COAL AND IRON AREA.
Referring to the coal and iron area Of the
South, which covers about 100000 square
miles. Mr. Atkinson says that it IS about
equal 70 the combined area of England,
Wales, Scotland. and Belgium, a half of
France and a half of Germany, which are
the main sources of the iron production Of
Europe,

ran up telegraph pole. Everybody
looked at the woman and her basket,
and she ran out and got off without
stopping the car. Then everybody
looked at the boy, and feeling that a
speech OF some sort was demanded by
the occasion, he said:
"Who'd a thought of cats? disposed
1T was new maple sugar or popcorn"

We Should Complain,

Englishmen who come here complain
that we are forever shaking hands.
The boot should be on the other foot.
1t is the Americana England who
should complain that the people over
there do not shake hands. It grows
to be a frightful predicament when it
has happened twenty times in day
that you have put out hand to seal
an introduction or meeting with a
shake, and have found the other fellow
looking at your hand coldly, and not
Offering to put out his own. We are
the ones to complain, not the English.
