has passed the House, the increas,
in the membership of the House
will be thirty new Congressman
making a total Of 387 instead oI
357 as at present. Among The
States which have increased in
population sufficiently to secure ad
ditional representation are Arkan
sas, Florida, Mississippi, Louisiana
and North Carolina, which each
gain ore while Texas makes gain
of three at one jump and Missouri
and West Virginia make gain OF
one each. Everything goes to show
that the South has gained more pro.
portionately than any other section
OF the country. Our natural re.
sources which far surpasses those
bestowed upon any other part of the
country have scarcely been touched
while in other States they have been
developed to almost or quite their
full capacity. There IS every indi.
cation that the next ten years will

THE SGCTH'S PROSPECTS.

THE SOUTH'S PROSPECTS.
The result of the United States ex-
norts over her imports for the year
1900 js that about *5OO,OoO,OO0 OF
American money is left on balance
abroad. This money is well ST curec
and can be collected at any time
America has need Of it. This fac;
show us the great changes winch mas
come about during the last decade.
New York no longer has to apply TOR
loans abroad, but has become the
lender. This change OF the wori" :
financial balance marks an epoch.
When We consider that this has
been accomplished under our present
state of development we begin 10
wonder what the possibilities OF
American commerce are. Here ID
the South we are not approaching
the volume of production in any one
Of score of staple commodities OF
which our natural advantages prop
srly developed makes US capable.
Our cotton crop, our sugar crop,
our fruit crop, our lumber interests
and our rich mineral deposits are all
capable of being vastly increased
and of being disposed Of ut muci'
greater rate of profit than ever be-
fore. The demands Of our gooos Is
at present in excess OF our produc-
ton. We need better manufacturing
facilities. We lose much OF the
profit which should come to us by
selling our raw material instead OF
having it manufactured into the nm
ished article here at home;. NOR
cotton mills for transforming our
cotton into cloth close to the place
OF its growth; more sugar factories
and refnerics near by to save the
cost Of transportation OF syrup to
distance places as well as the large
per cent. which is spoiled and
wasted in freighling long distances
more attention paid to fruit raising
here where nature has decreed thai
We should provide a large portion OF
the world with tropical and SENT
tropical fruits, and larger develop
ments OF our rich mines which ar
capable Of adding so mucl. to The
wealth Of our people if properly
worked.
In past years We have bet'
obliged to move slowly here. W.
we're crippled still by the effects OF
the civil war which left us with our
plantations devastated, our homes
ruined, our wealthy men bankrupt
our best blood spilled and our cher
ished institutions wrecked. 1t has
taken generation to recuperate
but now with money easier to OBJ
tain it ought not to he difficult t.
! enlist sufficient capital to start the
| wheels of progress TO turning more
| rapidly. No other section OF the
United States has the possibilities
for wonderful commercial develop
ment before it in the next ten gears
that are freely acceded to the Souti
to-day. Nature has dealt bountifu
with US, and it will be to the lasting
discrcdit of our people if VIC do moi
rise to the opportunities which art
ours and make long stride forwar.

! perity which the new century has

The present law in the collection
of State taxes, while it is severest
and most exacting against sheriffs
and collectors, is the most perfect
and satisfactory ever put upon the
statute books. With the opening of
the new year, each sheriff is charged
with the full amount Of taxes of
every kind in his parish. The bur
den then rests with him to balance
with the parish and State or give Il
sufficient legal reason why the col
lections have not been made, Fail
ing in these two requirements, he
or his bondsmen mus, come up TO
the captain S office and make good
what he has failed to collect or ac-
