Is keenly Ally,

is Neeniy Alive.
 That the south is keenly alive In the importance of preparing to meet. sooner or later' the same problems which have confronted the northern manufacturers Is shown by their pleas before congressional committees to be let alone" The Geor- gia Industrial association has been among the foremost organizations in the soufh in preventing labor troubles and taking cognizanee of such questions far enough in advance to escape the perils which threaten the very existence of the New England manufacturers.
 MT. Frederick B. Gordon of Columbus, Ga, president of the association. is him self ative If Massachusetts. who went to Georgia twenty years ago to engage In the manufacture of cotton there be- cause he forsaw that In the older manu- featuring center labor disputes would tn- evitably drive capital to fresh fields near CT the course of supply
 What we need in the south is laws to make people work. and not laws to make them idlers," he said recently. The entire world looks to the south for the bulk Of it's cotton. Twelve million bales will be required to meet the demand this coming year, and the south is going to try to produce 1t. The greatest obstacle In the way Is lack of labor. Capital Is pour ing in for the development Of her vast natural resources, and we want no dis turbing legislation Our conditions are entirely different from those of some of the older and more thickly settled states. The manufacturer of cotton goods in Massachusetts and Rhode Island are so severely hampered by laws applying strictly to the cotton mills, which Is pure ly class legislation. that rose or us in the south who are familiar with the oper- ations of those laws are going 10 use every effort to be freed from leg1sla- tion of that kind"
 Can Make Their Own Laws.
 Fuller E. Galloway. secretary and treasurer of the Unity mills, at LaGrange, Ga, also a member of the Georgia Indus trial association, said: We have no oo- jections to the public in Massachusetts making any laws they may see nt' II they want to walk on their hands, or their heads, that is their business We do not object to, or offer any criticism or what they do in any other state. We are in nice shape and we want to continue so If they have made mistakes up III the north, why we are late getting into the game and we ought to improve our conditions by profiting by the mistakes the other fellows have made.
 Massachusetts is something ike the fox that had his tail cut off and then wanted all the foxes to have their tails cut off because he thought 1t was the style. I'm sorry for the man who has his tail cut off. but I don't want to join him. A great many of the manvfactur- CTS of Massachusetts are building mills In Georgia, and that Is where they are making their dividends. What we hope to do in our country is to profit by the errors that have been made before"
 This question will be thoroughly dis cussed at the coming meeting of the as- sociation by Messrs. Davenport, Gordon and others, and the discussions will doubtless attract wide attention in New England and throughout the south.

WELL KNOWN LOCALLY
Post of Assistant Manager
Is to Be Filled by w. NJ.
Rank, a Veteran Employe

Through a circular issued yesterday
Official notice was given of an import
ant change in the conduct of the North
Shore and California Northwest
ern railways, whereby James Fraz-
Ter will assume the position OF general
manager, and w. NJ. Rank who has
worked faithfully for the welfare of
the road, Will have the desk of assist
ant manager.
Frazier was connected with the
Southern Pacific in this city for many
years and only few months ago went
East to take a more important position
than the one occupied by him in this
city, With the arrival of Frazier in
this city the offices of the North Shore
will be consolidated with those of the
California Northwestern in the Mutual
Life building at California and San
some streets.
w. NJ. Rank is considered one of the
most valuable men in the employ of the
North Shore road. 1t was largely
through his efforts that consolidation
was effected with the North Pacific
Coast Railway. During the term Of
his employ the road has seen many
changes. The antiquated steam cars
which Travelled over the tracks at un-
certain times have been displaced by
splendid new electric cars. Many other
improvements for the convenience of
the patrons of the road were made un-
der his direction.
No intination has been given as TO
what, If any, further changes will be
made in the staff of employees.

WHITE WINS CUSTODY
OK GIRL FOR SIXTH TINE
Successfully Resists Effort of Kate
Thompson to Adopt Little
Violet Lundbcr9.

AClNI
With the facts in the case yet to be
heard, Judge Kerrigan yesterday de-
cided. upon a question OF law, that
Secretary White of the Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty 80 Children Is
entitled to the custody OF s.x-year- old
Violet Lundberg. It is the sixth court
proceeding in little more than - year
for possession of the gill.
White was appointed as her guar
dian by Judge Coffey in MAY, 1903.
and placed her in an institution. In
October the mother oetitioned for a
revocation of the letters, but the case
was dismissed by Judge Coffey upon
request of her attorney. The mother
got another attorney AMI began ha-
beas corpus proceedings, which she
lost. He then enlarged his motion
and took the case to the Supreme
Court, where White was again VIC
torious.
Between the time of the argument
and the rendering of the decision by
the Supreme Court the child was kid
naped from the Protestant Orphans
Home on Haight street by Mrs. Kate
Thompson of 228 Nevada avenue.
White recovered the girl and placed
her in another home. where she now
is. Then Mrs. Thompson applied for
letters of adoption of the child, which
White resisted on the technicality that
his permission as guardian would have
to be obtained before the girl could be
legally adopted. No evidence was Of
fered in court and the Judge ruled in
Whites favor on the question OF law.
II Mrs. Thompson wants to continue
her fight she will have to take it to
the Supreme Court.

COLLEGE STUDENT ANSWERS
BREACH OF PROMISE SUIT
Paul Lydia Declares He Never Agreed
TO Marry Pauline Hulse o:
ANY Ono Else.

A year ago this month Paul Lydia,
a student in the University of Califor-
MIA, now living on Thirty-third street,
Oakland, was sued by Pauline Hulse
for $4,000 for breach of promise
to marry her. In her complaint the
young lady declared that on July IS
and "a of last year the student de-
clared his desire to make her his wife
and because of his failure to keep his
word she brought the suit.
Since then the action has been
pending on motion for change of
venue. Lidga filed his answer yes
terday. in which he denied that he
had ever promised to marry Miss
Hulse and further denied her charge
that he was engaged to marry another
female" at the time, citing as proof
that he is still unmarried.
Some of Lidga's friends say that he
had ambitions as an author and has
had a book published dealing with
college life.
