FOR SILK CULTURE.
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson Believes
the Government Can Build Up Great
Industry in the South.

Washington. May 10. : Secretary
Wilson, of the department of agricuI-
ture, is planning to introduce into
the United States the culture of the
silk worm and the weaving of silk
on an extensive scale. Secretary Will
sons plans for encouraging this in
dustry contemplate only the intro
duction of the silk worm, the weav-
ing will follow. He believes there is
a great field open to the farmers of
the south and southwest, especially
to the small farmers and poor folk
The secretary believes, if he can get
congress to approprite $4,000, which
he believes is necessary for the pur-
pose of making the experiments, that
the $45 900 worth of raw silk inn
ported into the United States last
year will ultimately be produced in

here to bring more comforts to the

OPPOSED no UNION LABOR.
President schwab, OF the Steel Trust, Says
Labor Organizations Do Not Give Indi-
Viduals Fair Chance.

Washington, May 13.-Charles NJ.
Sehwab, president of the United
States steel corporation, was before
the industrial commission Saturday.
He said that the United States com
pany controls eight companies by
owning their stock, and that while
steps are taken to insure the good
will and cooperation of all these COM
panies, each one generally is left to
conduct business it's own way. Emu
merating the advantages of consolida-
ton, Mr.. Schwab said they were
found especially in transportation and
management and in the utilization of
all the ores owned.
Discussing the tariff, Mr.. Schwab
expressed the opinion that in articles
of manufacture in which labor does
not enter as an important factor the
tariff might be removed, but that in
products into which labor enters large
ly, such, for instance, as tin plate,
it would be necessary either to re-
duce wages or lose trade if the tariff
were removed. Mr.. Schwab took a
position against organized labor, say
ing that it did not give individuals a
fair chance in life.

ASTONISHING GROWTH.
Three Thousand Farm Districts Are Now
Covered by Free Rural Delivery OF Mall
Cost of Each Route.

Washington, May 13.-No develop
ment in the mechanism of government
has been so astonishing as the adj
vance in the rural delivery service of
the post office department. Less than
half a dozen years ago Assistant Post
master General Jones, of Illinois, re-
ported that the proposed rural free
delivery was not feasible. The entire
influence of the department was cast
against it, but congress insisted on an
experiment, which was continued for
some years. Now the free delivery of
letters in rural communities is only a
question of appropriations. There are
now in operation, only six years aft
er the department, under previous
administration, reported adversely,
no less than 1900 rural free delivery
routes. Each one of these routes
costs annually from $500 to $1,000. In
addition to these, about 500 routes
have already been ordered to be es-
tablished by July 1.
