he says he has not the least doubt but
that this can be brought about by each
country removing from its laws every
thing which opposes the development
of reciprocal interests, and that. SO far
as Mexico is concerned, legislation in
this connection has always been con-
ceived in the most liberal spirit COM
pstible with its interests.
Referring to the decline in the price
of silver, the principal currency of the
country, he says: ST believe that in
reality the detriment has not been of
the magnitude that was anticipated,
and that the decline has been benefit
to general industries In the country, and
this Is easily explained. The deprecia.
ton of silver has produced rise in
foreign exchange, and, therefore. has
raised the price of imported goods.
which actually means an advantage to
the industries of this country.
1.-THE immediate result OF this situa-
tion has been the establishment of ne W
industries, the extension of those al
ready established. and the encourage
ment of agriculture in all the branches
suitable for expectation, such as coffee,
heneauin, etc., the values of which have

DOCKING THE COLUMBIA.
Statement of Captain Sumner Before tho
Oourtmartiat

Courtmartiat.
BROOKLYN, N. Y, Sept. S The mem.
bers Of the naval courtmartial ordered
to Try she charges preferred against
Captain Sumner in reference to the in
juries sustained by the United States
cruiser, Columbia, while being locked
in southampton two months ago, re-
assembled to-day The evidence given
by to-day's witnesses was mainly a re-
petision of that brought out last week.
When the prosecution had closed
Captain Sumner was sworn. Captain
Sumner said that on his way from Kiel
he received orders from Washington to
dock the ship at Southampton and paint
her bottom. He described his rderIng
OF coal and the making of the contract
for docking the ship. which corroborated
the testimony given by Paymaster Reed.
He handed the docking plan OF the
Columbia co Lewis and all the informs-
nation that was demanded. Lewis and all
the others whom he met there i'm
pressed him as being familiar with
docking and thoroughly capable and re-
liable in every respect. When the
strsiuing of the ship was reported to
him on Monday evening he sent for
Captain Lewis and together they in
spected the ship on both sides from stem
to stern.
He was satisfied, after careful ex-
animation, that the ship would not re-
ceive any further injuries by being
allowed to remain in the dock. and he
did not think 1t ne cessary to flood the
dock. Strict orders were given him to
keep close watch to ascertain IL the
ship was receiving any further injuries
and If 80 to report to him. About ihe
middle Of the afternoon on Tuesday,
July 9, the witness said ne received
word that the ship was receiving more
injury and he ordered the work of
painting to be stopped and the dock
flooded.
In regard to the paying of the bill
for docking, Capt. Sumner said he
thought that the most dignified and
proper proceeding for him was to pay all
the ships bills before his vessel left
Southampton. On cross examingti ton
tho witness said there was no particular
mention OF pumping cut the dock to
prepare 1t for the Columbia when he
was making the contract with the dock.

than three times, by the company. that
everything would be all right.
In yesterdays report of the Sum
ner courtmarti the following aen-
tence occurs: "As Captain Sumner has
pleaded guilty to the charges preferred,
1T is expected that the trial will be
brief" The statement Rs to Captain
Summers plea is an error. He mas not

The sentence was intended to cover the

CONSERVATIVE.
The F1rss Use OF the Word rs an English

Canning, and not Croker, was tho
first to use in English politics the word
conservative in it's present sense, and
too long has Thackeray's "Mr. Wen

credit which belongs to far more bril-
liant man. The general assumption has
been that the term was earliest employ

1880 mo. SO, page 276), in an article
which has been commonly said, but upon
no specified authority, to have been
written by Croker, but its true first use
was five years and half previously.
On June 8, 1924, a dinner was given
to George HILBERT, the chairman of the
West India Merchants of London, by the
members Of that body, and several of tho
leading ministers then serving under
Lord Liverpool, the Tory premier, were
present In tho course of the proceed

observation which fell from Mr.. Can

government as that of all governments
ought to be, was essentially conscrva-

died before the word is again to be met

their (the Tories') policy was conserva-

that they never could act together -

The rapid expansion OF the interests
OF the South and the phenomenal &C.

for farm lands for settlement By West

throughout this entire section. With
the continuation of nigh prices for cot
ton, the enormous grain crop which has
been produced, and these active con-
ditions in industrial interests, the
South bids fair to have the most pros
porous season which it has epioyed for
many years.
