VALUE OF THE EXPOSITION.

10 IuIIS NOuoc w. =
the Louisiana Exposition will marx
the opening of a new era in the
development Of the manufacturing
facilities of the South. 1t is true
that the last decade has seen a
most remarkable advance along
manufacturing lines, but when the
present condition is compared
with the possibilities that nature
has placed at our command, we
become aware that We are still
upon the first step in the ladder OF
progress.
What we need here in Louisiana
is capital and skilled labor. The
natural resources Of our State
as well as the entire South to fur
nish raw material for manufactur-
ing is rich beyond anything that
the Northern States know. All
that is necessary is the capital and
practical knowledge to establish
more aud larger manufacturing iu-
situations in our cities and they
must from their location in the
very heart of the base of supplies
take precedence over those Of the
North from the very beginning Of
their operations. 1t is true that for
time skilled labor might have to be
brought in, but once get great manu-
featuring establishments underway,
our people will be only too glad of
an opportunity 10 rise above the
rude life which has been content
with hoe and scythe.
The South was placed at such
hopeless disadvantages by the de-
vastating war of the sixties and
there has been until recent years so
little intercourse between North and
South that Northern and Eastern
capitalists have "passed by on the
other side" without needing or in
vestigating the wonderful possibil-
tiles for building up vast business
concerns which are lying dormant
here.
Already, as we have said, there
has come about change, but that is
nothing to what we confidently ex-
pect will follow the opening of the
Exposition. If we as State make
the displays that it is possible for
US to make, it will open the eyes Of
capitalists, who are sure TO be on the
look out for good investments. Not
alone in cotton and the various pro
ducts obtained from it, is there an
opening for great manufacturing in.
terests, but our coal fields, our vast
forests, our oil and iron, our sugar
cane and fruits, all in an abundance
of which the colder and less produc.
tive soils do not dream. All the
advantages OF location are in our
favor. The southern markets are
much more accessible 10 foreign
shippers than those of the east
where goods must be transported
half way across the continent before
placing them on ship board. When
all these favorable conditions have
been thoroughly exploited as they
will be at the great industrial ex-
position, investors will be fairly .um.
bling over each other to gain the
best chances for establishing manu-.
featuring institutions of various
kinds.
Our State has made liberal 40.
preparation to provide for a fine ex.
hibit of our products and resources.
Let every citizen in our great State
take q personal interest in the com.
ing exposition, feeling assured that
# 10 the best possible investment he
can make to promote its success and
one from which he will receive sure

New York, Sept. 3o.-The annual re-
port of the commissioner of immigration
at this port, William Williams, was filed
today with the secretary of the treasury.
The commissioner criticises without re-
serve conditions that surrounded the
landing of immigrants at Ellis island dur
ing the 10 months previous to the change
of administration there, due to Mr.. Will
liams' appointment. He says in the re-
port:
"The chief inspector was allowed to
arbitrarily mark the word hold against
the name OF any immigrant, thus causing
to be brought to him certain picked people,
to be dsnoscd Of as he thought best, in
stead OF allowing them TO be inspected In
the regular way. The It that most of
those so marked are shown to have had
fair accounts of money, and that many
so marked were able-bodied people, with
very large amounts of money, are points
not without interest"
Abuse and Lack Of System.
The commissioner says he could cite
numerous instances of abuse and lack of
system; that the immigrants were roughly
handled and addressed in rough language
by government and railroad officials; that
the detention pens were filthy, particu-
larly the dinng-room, where, the report
says. the immigrants were fed without
knives, forks or spoons that railroad and
other passes used to be demanded to Il
demoralizing extent; that ships after
ships" brought in cases of scalp. disease
and eye diseases, both dangerous and con-
tagious diseases, unknown In this country
until imported in recent years from
Europe.
The commissioner says the constantly
deteriorating quality of the recent mmi-
grafton calls for the execution of the law
in the most stringent manner, and he
states that last year over 1000 aliens who
had arrived within the year became desti-
tute in New York

rooms of Judge Orr behind closed doors,
the interview lasting two hours, and up to
noon nothing was given out as to the pro-
gram decided upon. Feeling ran high this
morning when it was reported that the
executors would be lodged in Jail for con-
tempt of court, but abated upon hearing
