WHAT PARTICULARLY rs NEEDED

In q recent issue OF the NIanufac-
turcrs Record Of Baltimore, Is printed
an interview from zone of the most sue
cessful capitalists in the country" Civ
Ing his opinion Of the South, and, amsng
other things, he said: THE Southern
States have to-day larger and more val
uable and varied undeveloped resources
than any other region of which I have
any knowledge. Capital. coupled with
Industry, will develop their resources
with marvellous rapidity under favora BILE
conditions, and 1t only remains for the
sturdier AnGlo-SaXon elements through
out the South to develop a public senti-
ment which is broad and fair-minded
and Just, and they will open the flood
gates through which there will flow in a
tide Of prosperity equal TO anything we
have seen In the phenomenal develop
mcnt OF the Western States during The
last thee decades.
1T takes money 10 make money, and
the money to make the South rich Is
awaiting investment in It's fields and
forests and mines, when The people Of
the south putting aside the modern
hcresies regarding capital rcasserting
inherited principles and living up TO
time hono:ed traditions, shall make the
visiting dollar like the visiting guest,
safer in the South against any and all
enemies than anywhere else in the
world.
The notion that in some way capital
can be legislatcd out Of the hands OF It's
owners and into the pockets of the many
Is the popular dcluson OF the day, and
this idea must give place 10 the truth. .
The Southern people generally will be
glad TO know that the money 10 make
the South rich Is awaiting invest men is
III It's fields, forests and mines, but they
would like TO know what arc ",he mod
crn heresies regarding capital" tina. we
are to put aside before the inflow OF
money can come to us. and when was II
that the visiting dollar" was not safer
in the South than elsewhere in the coun-
try?

this country Is toward economy Of pro-

charges and useless burdens; hence by

ROLL OF HONOR.

AT recent meeting of the Confederate
Memorial Literary Society it was re-
solved to press forward the work of
registering the names of Confederate sol
diers and sailors in roll of honor" to
be preserved in the Confederate Museum
for all time to come.
The books are now open, and it is
urged that all those who feel an interest
in this work shall send in the names and
rank of their friends and comrades
promptly, with such mention of their rec
ord as they may deem proper, and as
far as possible a verified report of the
various commands to which they were
attached-the names not only of those
who died for their country in the hope
of victory, but also of those who learned
the not less heroic lesson of living for
her in the hour of defeat.
