Good Suggestion.

Here Is suggestion from the Southern Farm Magazine, in winch there Is considerable force.
 "Men anxious to get good interest on their money, and who for the time being have money lying idle, can make no mistake in tu. ming their attention to two undertakings on Southern soil. One Is agriculture and the other Is town building. By town build- ing is not meant selling town lots on d boom basis, where there IS no legitimate reason for town to exist, but the creation of 8 community which may be cen ttr of trade and industry, resting upon nearby agricultural develop ment. If investors would only recognize that agriculture, to be successful, is just as much d business as tue conducting of q manufacturing plant or the operation of railroad. they would recognize at once their opportunity in the>Souih. There are hundreds of thousands of acres of .h land in the South yet to be settled. Many of these lands are fat removed from towns or cities. Their settlement in the right way, on a business plan, without regard to economic dreams or impracticable phllan thropny, would demand the crea ton of center of trade and industry. Why cannot capitalists invest their surplus here and induce surplus labor to quit the over crowded Northern cities and become farmers

at which our Cuban export trade
 has fallen off sInc. 1899. when 1t
 was $36, ,500,0 The loss in 1900 was $4,500,000 and in the first eight months of 1901 was s ,000,- 900 more. Our exports to Cuba in the year following the Blaine Mckinley reciprocity law doubled in value. Can any other lesson be drawn from the present falling off in trade, so prosperous else- where, than that onr customers in Cuba cannot buy from us because we have made them too poor?

Population Increase In The South

Population Increase In The South
 For the first ti e in the history of this country, as special report from the Census Bureau now sets forth, the population of the South |ern States has relatively increased more rapidly than that of the North and East, making the rate of growth more nearly the same than ever before.
 The increasing attractiveness of of the South as | field for invest ment and settlement accounts for this marked increase of population. Outside capital is being drawn to the development of the South s natural resources. The section s industrial growth has peen amaz- ing during the past few years. The demand for labor has been vastly stimulated as a consequence. The inevitable result of these changed conditions is now appar ent in the census reports.
 The Southern States have every reason to look forward with conf dence to a period of growth such as has not heretofore been known. The attention of capitalists is most favorably secured. Where capital goes, the labor necessary to indus tral development follows. Within the next ten years the South will unquestionably take the lead in the rate of population increase if present indications possess any value as affording a basis for an estimate.

NOT PRACTICABLE CUBsN RECIPROCITY
Home for Aged Journalists
 Would be Oyerrun
Would Have to Roof in a State to Hold Them Says the Com
 mercial Appeal.

Editor Henry Watterson of the Louisville Courier-Journal has lent his powerful influence to the assistance of Andrew Carnegie and IS doing what he can to enable that man of many millions to die poor and innocent of sin. Wat terst n's idea Is not new one, |, be cause 1t has been advocated fol many years, The great kentuck- ian, however, relieves that he can iuduce Mir. Carnegie to give up q few million dollars toward the support and maintainance of Il home tor superanuat ed journal ists. Editor WattersoD may suc> ceed in his assault on the Scotch mans millions, but the institu- ton will never he success. The aged journalist IS such a common parsonage that he includes veiy large part of the human family and any home for him would re- quire the roofing of state as large as Texas. The journalist, ike the man wiio once practieed law or who worked IS a telegraph operator, can be met any hour in the day, Men who are sportively inclined and who have investigat
 ed the subject, profess to be will ing to wager even morey that out of five rocks thrown into d crowd of people in any city in the United States three of them will hit either an ex-jeurhalist, an ex-tel- egraph operato:' or an ex-lawyer. ! Hence home for aged journal ists would be impracticable be- cause there is no way of deter mining the eligibility of appli- cants. The journalist is some what mythical. There are great many people of advanced years who would rejoice to be taken into il comfortable home, and some of these have written for newspapers at some period of l their lives, but men who are jour nalsts and who have followed the profession as , means of gain ing d livelihood throughout thelr stay on this earth do not need homes furnished by charity.
 Should sucl. an institution be established Il is net difficult to imagine the aggregation of "has beens'' who would assemble there. Every one who has writ ten q "piece for the paper" would consider himself a journalist of high stanGing aud he would have d number of influential friends to vouch for him and insist on hls admission. because influential 1 friends are only too much grati- 1 fled to unload their burdens on some one else.
 Besides all this, these homes !, however we'll intended, are un- manning. The certanty of being taken Care ot in old age and when helpIessness comes, causes Il re- taxation of effort and closes the eyes of prudence. Each iudivid- ual ought to be made to feel that he is his own keeper and that he must look out for himself. In proportion as people depend on charitable institutions to care for them is the growth and develop ment of their characters arrested aud stunted. When misfortune comes to anyone who has been a competent journalist, and he finds himself beyond the days of active work, and helpless, he has always chal acter enough and friends enough to see that he suffers foi nothing during the sholt time that remains for him to live.- Commercial Appeal.

BashfuI Bills Troubles.

A bashful young man ot Grant vile was invited out to dine last
 Monday evening. He was very much agitated. He sat opposite a mirror and discovered that he had forgatten to co,nb his hair. Then he dropped his fork onto the floor and as Le stopped to pick it up he upset his coffee. Matters went on from had 10 worse, untii finally in dispair the young man quit eating and put his hands under the table. The loose end of the table cloth was lying in his lap. Whe,. he toubh- ed 1t he turned pale. He thought it was his shirt, and that he had in his excitement while dressing forgotten to put the garry ent in his trousers. That accounts for hls further embarrassment. He huriiedly stuffed the supposed shirt inside his trousers. After ward when the family arose from the table there was a crash The dishes lay in a broken mass on the floor. The young man pulled three feet of tablecloth out of his pants and flew to the woods.-Ex.

Farquhar's Address Before
 Academy of Science
Says We Have Made Our Custom CTS in Cuba too Poor to
 Buy From Us.

and Social Science A. B. Faquhar dealt at length on this countIy's obligations to Cuba and the con ditions Ill Cubq-a subject on which he was especially qualified to snsak, having been trading with the island for more than a quarter of a century and having formed aequaintances with great many people during his visits there. Mir. Faquhar said in part:
 "Far beyond any other country in present importance, as bearing upon tie question of reciprocity, is the Island of Cuba. The best known historian of the recent war in that island, Col. Theodore Roosevelt, now President, res minds us that "the guns that thundered over Manila and Sanli. ago left us echoes of glory, but they also left us a legacy of duty. 1t Is worse than idle for Us to say that we have no duty to perform and can leave the islands to their fate. Let us, as we value our self respect, face these responsi- bilties aud meet the problem in u way to rebound 10 our glory, with high resolve for the widest freedom of individual initiative, 1 persuing no policy that is hostile to the welfare of the many. While our nations first dut, is within Its own borders it is not to be absolved from facing it's duties as d whole, and if it refuses to do SO it forfeits its right to struggle for place among the people that shape tue destiny of madkind."
 Our responsibility is great be- ceause our power is great. At our command as all expres con- dition of our ceasing to treat the island as conquered territory un
 der martia! law, the 'PIatt amend- ment' was forced into the new constitution of Cuba as an integ- ral part of her organic law. By that amendment the Cubans are bound hand und foot: powerless It. conclude treaties with other countries save by our consent they cannot turn elsewhere tor favorable terms, but must be satisfied with what we choose to give them; and what we have heretofore chosen to give them is only fresh and increased dose of the old Spanish prescription pauperism and bankruptcy. The commercial products of the island are sugar and tobacco. Forthese our country Is the natural market and we make our duties especially heavy cn them over 100 per cent on sugar, the more importantant of the two. In other words we tax the products of Cuba more than double the Dingley rates on dutiahle goods generally; the rate being $l.SS per hundred pounds, the Cubar receiving af- ter deducting cost of transporta- ton barely $l.70, which Is less than cost of production. This cannot continue it points to in- evable rum aud paralysis of pro- ductive and commercial enter prise, with relegation of that fair island to condition of idle ness and semi-barbarism. The land is fertile, luckily. Nature there produces enough with little assistance to keep the population from starvation, but there can he no growth. feel d slight shame in showing how oui own interests are suffering along with those of our island ward, but that is one of the f, Sts in the case and the pace at which the evil is progress
