The South is convenient to the
best markets, and can produce in
abundance the best fruits.
''The railroads can justly lay
great claim in the progress of the
Southern deveopment. They have
opened up rich and new terrific
ry to settlement and added large
ly to the facilities for growth and
development. They recognize the
fact that the prosperity of the
territory through which their lines
run means their success, and
so even from purely selfish mo
tive, if for no other, they desire
to foster and encourage all legit-
innate enterprises.
''The particular railway with
which ! am connected is no ey-
ception to this rule, as it is main
tanning an effective department,
whose work is directed to the de-
velopment of the agricultural and
industrial interests of the section
OF the country tributary, to its

sums of money for betterments of
its properties and in increasing
the facilities necessary to give the

"a license to steal"

That must have been embarrassing
information to the United States senate
which Statistician Carroll d. Wright fur
nlshcd that body last week concerning
the labor cost of lumber in this country
and III Canada. His figures showed that,
while the average wages in Canadian
sawmills is Sl.il and $l7l per day
here, tho average labor cost of 1, 900
feet OF lumber Is 81. 2o III Canada and
only 81 cents here. The decreased cost
of production in this country is attrib-
uted to the superior machinery used.
or course the figures prove the free
trade contention that the rate of wages
paid does not Indicate the cost of pro
duction-that low wages are very often
more expensive to employers, and vice
versa. But these hard facts furnished
by an officer of the government will not
dissuade the lumber barons from their
purpose to get a tariff on Canadian lum-
Der so that they can the more efYectually
rob American consumers. Protectionists

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common water
glass with urine and let it stand
twenty-four hours; a sediment or
settling indicates a diseased con-
ditlon of the kidneys. When
urine stains linen it is positive
evidence of kidney trouble. Too
frequent desire to urinate or pain
in the back, is also convincing
proof that the kidneys and blad.
der are out of order.

DEVELOPMENT OF THE
SOUTH.
Resources of That Section Are
Being More Thoroughly Placed
Before The People of The
Whole Country.

ID. c., Second Vice President of
the Southern Railway Company,
recently made the following state
ment to a correspondent of the
New York Times with regard to
the industrial development of the
South:
"We are, in the South, in an
era of practical and successful
development of our great natural
advantages. There is unanimity
among the people upon the sub
Ject of development, and gen
eral disposition to foster industri-
al growth. The plans and meth
ods of placing the resources of
the Southern country before the
outside world are Systematically
arranged, and are bound to be ben.
eficial to that section.
'Cotton manufacturers have
largely increased, and have prov
ed to be more profitable than in
any other section. Many new
mills have been erected, and
many more greatly enlarged, as
well IS provided with the most
modern machinery and appli-
ances. 1t should not be surpris
ing to see within a short time the
cotton produced in the Carolinas
and Northern Georgia taken en-
tirely by local mills.
"a splendid beginning has also
been made in wood working, and
there are many of these establish
ments in our territory in success
full operation. The abundance of
valuable timber, suitable for everv
branch of building materials. as
well as the manufacture of wagon.
carriages, railway cars, furniture
and, indeed, about everything of
which wood is araw material. not
only makes wood working in all
OF its branches profitable as we'll.
AT no distant day the South will
occupy the first rank in this i'm
portant industry.
"lron manufacturing in the
South is forging ahead at rapid
rate. All the conditions are fav-
orable for success in this line of
industry. 1t has been demon
that iron can be manufac-
tured more cheaply and of equal
ly good quality in the Sonth than
in any other section. The South
IS already engaged in the export
ing of iron, and the prospects are
most encouraging for a largely in
creased foreign business from that
section. 1t is not to be wonder
ad at that this should be so, for

'''SN'hS ONCI UIl l..
the Cabinet to-day decided that
the President should send to Con-
