IMMIGRATION URGED
FOR THE SOUTH

Commissioner General Sargent Con-
fers with Transportation People.
Washington, Aug. Frank P Sar-
gent commissioner general of immi-
grafton. had a conference to-day with
a representative of big transporta-
tion company regarding the coming to
this country of immigrants, who
should take up agricultural" lands of
the South, particularly in Texas
a scarcity of labor in the South. par
ticularly in the cotton raising states,
has induced some of the trans Atlantic
transportation lines to investigate the
matter of diVerting a part of the i'm
migration to this country to the cot
ton growing states.
Nj Sargent said that the immigra-
tion bureau had nothing to do with
the part of the country into which inn
migrants should go. but he had heard
of the proposition to establish A steam
ship line between Italy and New Or
leans, the idea being to supply Italian
immigration for the agricultural re-
cions of the South.
The conference he had to-day related
to the establishment in Texas of COL
onies of Italians who would begin there
the pursuit of farming. Mr.. Sargent
expressed the belief that desirable i'm
migration into the South would be of
immense benefit to that section. ss

even by the kings officers on half pay. This was bad enough, but there were also independent companies rai|ed in time of need, and their officers, being directly cOmmiSS toned by the govern ors acting for the king, insisted on their right to outrank gentlemen o1 the militia, aud led the men in their commands to disobey such officers and to consider themselves of class Su- perior tU the militia. 1 had already had so sad an experience of the diff culties which arose out of these con- ditions that l was unwilling to sub- init to Governor Dinwiddie'S plan of making all the militia independent companies and with only captains in command. The object to be attained by this awkward expedient was to put stop to the constant disputes as to precedency and command. As this would reduce me from colonel to cap tain, made it clear to the governor to be advised, but would consider 1t, which, indeed, took me no long time. In November resigned my cOmmis- sion, and before it was accepted went to Alexandria, where my regiment then lay. I asked the officers to meet me and explained the cause of my be- ing forced to resign. I was surprised to find that my resolution, which all admitted to be reasonable, met with the most flattering opposition. h. deed, I received soon after 8 letter from these gentlemen in which, with much more, they said:
 "We, your obedient and atfectionate officers, beg leave to express our great concern at the marked disagreeable news we have received of your deter imitation to resign the command of the corps. Your steady adherence to impartial justice, your quick discern ment and invariable regard to merit, enlivened our natural emulation to ex- eel" ..
 As this letter lies before me and I think of the emotion it caused me, l still like to remember that at the close they spoke of me as Zone who taught them t6 despise danger and to think by a man they knew and loved"
 l have been spoken of as wanting in sensibiiity. lift had been said lacked means to show what I feel, that were to put the matter more correctly. Even now the recollection of the praise thus given moves me deeply, and recalls the memory of my farewell to those who served with me in the War of Independency. I was but twenty three when I left the colonial service.
 I did so with much reluctance, for my desire was not to leave the military line, as my inclinations were strongly bent to arms, and of this assured Colonel Fitzhugh very plainly when he would have had me submit to return to service in the inferior grade of cap tain. I preferred my farm to submit ting to this degradation.

BY MRS I. M. sHARPE.-sUGGEsTE FROM READING MRS CARRIE MYGATT ANDREWS LETTER IN THE NEW TOWN BEE. Did we read of a tear in the message
 so far away from the old home, Though twas among the grandest scen-
 cry under the sun! But the sweetest of all words to the
 travellers ears abroad Is Homeward; though in pleasure
 they've Strayed to the vast wOn-
 derS that awed. And where the red flowers bloom in
 the deep mountain snow, And meets with a rapturous surprise
 at its radiant glow. Here the vast fields of snow gathered
 in all the ages past, Make music as they melt and run to
 feed the mighty rivers reaching
 to the sea at last. I love the mountains, their deep can
 yOnS scoOped out as nature does
 her best in all her varying moods. The mountains! ragged, jagged, all
 fantastic! Oh, watch the storm as it comes Shiver-
 ing through the tall dark pines, Moaning down the steep, precipitous
 canyons as though the very tiends
 held carnival! Oh, watch the silver thread that gildS
 the crest from suns first ray of
 morning! Or watch the length hing shadows
 creep slowly o'er the approach of
 night.
 'Tis folly to attempt what no pen, nor
 gifted artist can describe. One must be there to know, to feel the
 stupendous grandeur of the lofty ranges.
 An, but one must then feel themselves
 pigmy, small; Though the mightiest man among mankind of all.

THE COLLIE.
lBY J. s. MATHEW.

If the collie could only speak
 And tell what he knew, He'd surprise many of us
 And aStonish even you. He is on the alert, waiting
 To be told wbat to do; And always kind and willing
 To do what he can for you. Waiting and watching all night, Listening If a stranger is near; Then with 8 bark to tell you
 That some one is here. When the chickens in the garden, Scratching up the corn, He beats the boy driving them out, And is up earlier in the morn. When it's time to get the COWS,
 He starts of with delight, To bring them home to the barn, To be kept for the night. Sometimes they are far away,
 Over the hills, out of sight; He works until he finds them,
 With all his will and might. Sometimes they are a little slow,
 And don't want to come, Then he bites them on the heel,
 And they are glad to run. His heavy coat sheds off
 In the summer when warm, And grows again in the winter,
 To protect from cold and storm. He's always willing, always ready,
 To work from morn till night, And looks up as if to say,
 He tried to do it right. Yet it suits him best of all
 To chase pussy up a tree, When she gets under the window, Rowling in song of glee. If you want the best dog,
 This is what you should do, Get one of ArbitratOr's pups
 And it will always suit you. BETHEL, CONN.

 I do not suppose that any land was ever worse governed than Virginia was under Dinwiddie, and as to military affairs worst of all, but not worse than other colonies. The governors were ignorant of warfare and expected too much from the half-trained militia and their careless officers. These con- ditions may have seemed to justify the king's order that all officers holding militia appointments should be out ranked by all royal commissions, and

CONAN DO1 LIZ AND JAM TARTS.
 Conan Doyle's latest book was "'The Adventures of Gerard' (McClure- Phillips). His first story, written at the age of six, was about tiger that swallowed a man: Dr Doyle began his literary output at an early age. He used to tell stories to his schoolmates for which they paid him in jam tarts. Young Doyle had his own way of ex- tracting the price he wished. He would get his story worked up to such a climax as this: "While holding the rocky edge of the cliff with grip of desperation, the hero could hear below him the continued grOwls of the en- ragged bear" Having proceeded thus far he would refuse to proceed further unless the price paid in current tart lets of the schoolboy realm was doubled.

HUMAN ENDURANCE.
BURLINGTON TRAINMEN COM
PLAIN OF HILL ECONOMY.
They Question the Safety of Policy
That Overworks Men Who Have
Human Lives in Their Keeping
Say They Are Oppressed so Stock
holders Can Get Per Cent.

Because James j. Hill guaranteed
8 per cent to the stockholders Of the
Burlington when he assumed control
of that system, many of the older en-
ployes are undergoing what they con-
slider real hardship. Ten days ago,
plants of Burlington employees on
other parts of the system, mention
ing the fact that the runs to and from
the twin cities had been combined in
some way, to squeeze more work out
of the train crews. The new schedule
complaints are CORRESPONDENCE more
emphatic. No dissatisfaction is
openly expressed, as the Hill guillo-
| tine gets nobody more surely than the
man who talks too much.
| Trainmen complain that with the
long runs and long hours they are
forced to work to point almost be-
yond human endurance. ! They are
haunted by the fear Of accidents from
unpreventable neglect of duty. They
hold that the running of trains in
safety depends upon the vigilance and
alertness of the crews and they can
not do themselves and their employers
Justice, when compelled to work long
hours on fast runs.
Crews are now running from Min
neapolis to Chicago, a distance Of 942
miles, with seventy-two stops. The

cago at 1855 p. m. The men leaving

rive in Minneapolis at 1870 p. m. the
next afternoon.
Trainmen declare that in making
this schedule the management has
broken faith and virtually abrogates
previous working agreements. Hints
of strike are made. In discussing
the conditions an old Burlington en-
ploye said:
"a conductor and his crew feel 8
sense of responsibility for the lives OF
those upon a train. A man can only
be worked so far when he becomes
actually irresponsible. hate to fee

it is false economy. It would ap
