THE SOUTH.

"A correspondent of the Baltimore
News, IL discussing the statemen,
that 20, 00G, 900 Immigrants have
landed IN the United States since
1920, deduce5 figures tracing to this
immigration the prosperity of the
country. He shows that of the g..
600, 900 white people in the country.
$4,000, GOO, or more than so per cent,
are foreign born, or the children OF
foreign born parents. He SAYS:
"That is the secret of American
prosperity; we had the natural re-
sources, and men came to develop
them; energetic foreigners and enter
pflalng men from the Eastern States
went West as pioneers, pushing the
westward to the Pacific. de-
Velop1ng the resources of the region.
carrying civilization with them and
growing up with the new country.
Cities grew and are fO%urlshing: the
wilderness nas been made to blossom
as the rose. 1t took MANY workers
n many years to supply the do
mestlc needs of the rapidly growing
nation; as these were supplied we had
gradually Increasing surplus, which
we exported, until last year our ex-
ports were close to ST., 800 900, 900,
and still Increasing. Thus prosperity
goes marching on.n
Comparatively few of these immi-
grants find their way South. There
are many reasons for this condition.
and 1t Is not worth the while to dis
cuss them, but as the Baltimore
Manufacturers Record we'll saws.
h'the fact TO be borne in mind now is
that most of the reasons Whv the
South dld not have a larger share no
longer are active, while at the same
time it is the portion of the country
whose natural resources have been
least developed. These await the
energetic foreigners and the enter
prising men from other parts of the
country of the class who made their
fortunes in building up the great
West. That these men and their
children are willing to repeat in the
South the experience in the West of
forty aid fifty years ago cannot be
doubted. The very activity of South
ern railroads in attracting immigra-
ton to the South is proof of it. But
the willingness to find homes in the
and the readiness of railroads
satisfy the wish must be backed
up by persistent, painstaking adver-
of Southern advantages bv
home folks and by hearty whole
sOuled welcome to the new comers.O
This states the situation clearly
and forcibly. 1t is the duty of every
enterprising citizen of the South to
encourage immigration. The rail- ,
roads have awakened to the POSSIBLE
ties along this line and deserve and
receive the mostly hearty CO. j
operation in their efforts. The South

night by fire, together with its con-
tents. The latter included cavalry and
infantry equipments of every de-
scription. and millions of rounds of
Krag- Jorgensen Smokeless ammunition
The contents We're worth $1,500,000;
the building was massive structure,
three stories in height, erected twenty
years ago at a cost of 100000.
When the flames got beyond con-
troll of the arsenal tiremen an appeal
was sent to Dcs Moines, Davenport,
Rock Island and Moline for help to ex-
tinguish the flames. The response was
prompt and the fire was fought hard
until conditions became dangerous to
life on account of the large amount of
ammunition in the burning building.
The latter was then left to its fate

rest of the plant, which was done.
The Rock Island Arsenal is the larg
est in the United States, comprising
ten great buildings and covering thir
ty acres of ground. 1t represents al
expenditure of $12,000,O00.

CHICAGO COPS GET BUSY
Failure at st. Louis of "Turf 1nvestme nv
Companies Starts the Move

Chicago, Feb. 14.-The police yester.
day began systematic raid upon turf
concerns. Three squads
of detectives got instructions to raid
every alleged fraudulent truf invest
ment concern that was operating in
Chicago. One Of the offices visited
was that of 81. Brolaski & Co., 1856
Dearborn street. Brolaski was there
and was taken in charge by the Off
GERS. In the office at the time were
two women who said they had made
investments and that they had been
unable to get their money back when
they called for it.
Another office visited was Benedict
& Co. No one in this Office had ever
seen Benedict, but it was said that he
was probably at the main offices in
South Bend, Ind. At oil the offices
here were people in greater or less
number who complained that they had
invested their money and got nothing
for it. Some were sin" as high as ST.
600. It is believed that the losses
through these concerns will reach an
aggregate of hundreds of thousands of
dollars.
The cause of the police activity is
the failure at st. Louis of several Of
these companies with the consequent
loss, it is said, of more than $4,000, O0O
by their stockholders, most of whom
are poor persons. The failures at St
Louis are these: z. ]. Arnold & Co.
John j. Regain & Co., International In.
vestment company, Christy Syndicate
Investment company, United Turf In
vestment company. The number Of
persons losing money by these failures
is about $1,000.

Car on the Burlington Near
Butte. Mont.

Butte, Mont, Feb. 16.-George Cole,
under arrest here, has made confession
of the Burlington hold-up of Wednes-
day last, and duplicates George How
ard, alias Joe Kirby. He says they
sent boy to Morrow's livery stable
on South Main street to hire a rig
about $50 p. IN. Tuesday. They drove
to the scene of the hold-up and held
up the train. Kirby had two guns,
but was too drunk to use them.
Kirby is the man who jumped upon
the engine as the train was nearing
Homestake and compelled the engineer
to stop and made the fireman get down.
But for Kirhy's drunken condition,
Cole says. they would have met with
better success.
