Letter to DR.. A. J. Smith.
FRANKLIN. LA,

Dear Sir: Would you like to hear
of 2O-year paint?
Mr.. James A. O'Niel's house, Hen
derson, N. c., was painted 20 years
ago with Devoe lead-and-zinc, and
never painted again till last year; it
then looked better than common paint
in half that time.
The reason is: Devoe is all paint
and true paint; while the common
paints are part true and part false.
Don't pay to monkey with paint.
And Devoe costs less than any OF
them; not by the gallon, of course; by
the house and year. That's how to
reckon it. Go by the name.
Yours truly
81 F. w. DEVOE & Co.

A leading business man in a
town we know recently came to
the conclusion that home printing
was not good enough for his firm,
SO he sent to one of the large cities
to have some envelopes printed.
The city man duplicated the home
printers work in type and design,
but used stock about 18 cents per
1000 cheaper, and charged the
same price. The merchant paid
shipping charges. This same
business man is a strong believer
in supporting home institutions,
and it grieves him much to see his
customers sending to the city
mail-order houses for little articles
he carries in stock.

POLITICAL MIDDLE
IN OLD MISSOURI.
Tampa Times.

The deadlock in the election of a
senator continues in the Missouri leg
islature, unless it is broken to-day.
Kerens has sufficient strength to pre-
vent the election of Neidringhaus, the
caucus nominee, and ne says he is de-
termined to exercise i: il it results in
defeat entirely. The story back of
the hostility between the two men is
a characteristic one. KerenS is an
olG republican war horse. Through
the thirty years of weakness, defeat
and disrepute of his party in his state
he was ever to the front rank of TIE
workers. He never faltered ror
fiinched, but always come up anew to
the contest with every recurring cleo
ton. When the time came that the
party could reward him he wanted the
Prize. BIT he was utterly disdainen,
AID the caucus choice of the party
fell on a rich yO1rg man. man on
" hom The party had conferred for
tune of millions as a beneficiary of
the doctrine of protection Neidring-
haus had nothing to entitle MIN to
the senatorship but the wealth that
his father had earned ana given him
and his own desire for the place.
Kerens and a lot of old stagers
who were of the same kidney deter
mined that party ingratitude Should
not take this exasperating shape.
Whatever Kerens had earned of dis
Iepute had been in faithful service
to the party in the days when it mad
nothing to give in return. Whatever
WEAKNESS men felt of him was be-
cause he knew nothing, thought moth
ing but the welfare Of his party. II
there is such thing as earning the
gratitude Of an organization and as
deserving the honors and rewards 1t
has to bestow, no man could come
before Kerens, who had kept 1t alive
through thick and thin, mostly thin.
He had spent labor and money, and
il was intolerable that he should be
shelved in a cold-hearted way for a
brash young man who had done none
Of these things. In a way, Kerens
and his friends are right. II a man
is good enough to bear the standard
of a party through thirty years OF
hard and disastrous campaigning, If
he is worthy its leadership through
storm and stress, he is WORTHY its
honors ana rewards when the time
comes for them to be bestowed.

CATTLE RAISING
IN SOUTHERN STATES.
Macon (Ga.) Telegraph.

1t is only a few years since the
Southern consumer Of beef was fur-
nished almost entirely by the product
imported from the Northwest. Little
effort was made in this section to
raise cattle for market, and Southern
farmers sold practically all their SUI
plus animals to agents of the Western
dressed meat men. The Southern con-
sumers thus saw the live meat ship
ped away before their eyes and the
dressed meat come back to them at
unnecessarily high prices.
But now the Western meat combine
is said to do no retail business in
most of the leading and in many OF
the minor markets of the Southern
states, while it's wholesale trade in
such markets is rapidly declining.
The great change is partly due to an
aroused sense of the absurdity of the
former method, and partly to the eff
forts of the Cattle Growers Associa-
ton which two years ago, being az
war with the Western combine. began
a campaign to induce the farmers Of
each state who had grazing lands to
attempt to raise the beef cattle re-
quired by the people of that state.
The reports INDICATE that this ap-
peal was responded to by Southern
farmers especially. Commenting
thereon the Philadelphia Public Ledg-
er says: The appearance of an i'm
proved grade of beef cattle wherever
the conditions favor natural and album
dant feed in the South, and the steaIy
decline of dressed beef imports INFO
that section, are the visible results Of
the movement. There are no more
sales of young cattle to the Western
packers from the South, but cattle
growing has become an important
fact. The suggestion is not unreason-
able that, with the extent of grazing
lands of the Southern states, they
may supply the needs of a great part
Of the whole people of the country. II
it be true, as alleged by the Western
combine in explaining the high price
Of meat, that the vast ranges of the
far West have been so contracted
that they can no longer support half
the cattle that covered them a few
years ago, the Southern cattle enter
prise is bound to pay-better than
the raising of cotton, when crops are
az large as they have been the past
year."
We may add that if Southern farm
ers will make good use OF their op-
portunity on an increasingly extern.
sive scale they will not only make
money for themselves and furnish the
South with cheaper and better beef,
but render powerful aid in breaking
down a tyrannical beef monopoly.

a WORD AS TO
ALDERMAN PRYOR.

In yesterday evenings paper, Aid
erman Pryor makes a reply to the
communication of Alderman Muldon
which appeared in this paper yester-
!. day morning.
With the reply to Alderman Muldon,
: The Journal has absolutely nothing
20 do-thst gentleman is abundantly
able to take care of himself, as Alder
man Pryor has frequently found out
10 his sorrow-but in the course OF
that reply the distinguished gentle
I man from Precinct 13 directs few
words to The Journal, and to those
we crave the public's pardon for max
ing the briefest possible answer.
Alderman Pryor says:
As to the criticisms of The Jour
nal; / am not advised as to the trou-
bic between that paper and the show
people. noticed, however, when these
same people were here before that
Z The Journal carried some heavy dis
play advertising for them and also
columns of complimentary notices. 1t
is presumed that the advertising was
paid for at the highest price. This
time miss the display advertisements
and the only notices / see are any
I thing but complimentary. What has
occasioned this sudden change? L.
looks to the uninitiated that what
Mr.. Mayes says is about right, that
ut PAYS TO ADVERTISE"
BY way of explanation to the public,
# may be stated that while Alderman
Pryor's name is signed to the com
munication in which the above ap-
pears. there are excellent reasons for
believing that he did not write it, but
that really is not material.
If the veiled charge contained in
the above were to come from an ire,
sponsible ward heller there would be
little occasion for surprise. 1t is,
however, beneath the dignity OF a
representative business man or city
1 councilman, and is deserving of moth
ing but the most supreme contempt,
If Mr.. Pryor is so fast to insinuate
that az stand for the enforcement OF
3 the law is actuated by business con
sideration-or the lack of same-he
need not be surprised If some one
: should arise to inquire what consid'
erations actuate nina sworn city
oficial-in so strenuously advocating
4he breaking of the law.
! The Journal is charitable enough
however. to believe that Mr.. Pryor
signed the communication of yester'
nay without giving it the proper at.
tention. He should be more careful
about it in the future.
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1905-03-10

rett believes such a department should
be created at the next meeting of the
legislature and he is inclined to think
this may be done.
Since the worlds fair, Mr.. Barrett
says he has received innumerable in.
quiries from persons who were think
ing of coming to Georgia. He has an
swered as many of-these as he could,
but many have had to go unnoticed.
The development of South Carolina,
Mr.. Barrett states, dates from the big
New Orleans exposition, where the
state had a fine display.
Georgia ought to wake up" he
said. I'VE have the climatic condi-
tons and the natural advantages, #
We would only let the world know
about it. l don't care what you call
such a department. but there should
be one to attract people to the state.
You might call il the department of
lrAnlgration or the department of
publicity, or anything you please, but
such department should be estab-
lished."
The News has contended for such
bureau long and earnestly. There
can be no doubt of the magnificent
advantages of the state of Georgia.
We have the climate, the soil and the
natural resources which place us far
ahead of any other section of our
common country.
1t has been clearly demonstrated
that the present system of negro labor
, is highly unsatisfactory. 1t has been
, shown by statistics that in the coun-
ties where crops were raised by white
labor the yield of cotton was larger
and better than in those counties
which depend upon the negro. There
are a thousand circumstances to rein
force the argument that what we need
is an abundance of thrifty white labor
and to this end it is essential that such
a bureau, having behind it the pres.
tige Of the state, should be establish
ed.
Particularly is it desirable that we
/ have high class of immigrants who
could bring with them a certain
amount of capital. There are ample
opportunities for them to succeed Ia
every channel Of trade and industry
! if they would but come and locate
! among US.
But the older agencies still defect
the incoming immigrants toward the
west and the northwest. II there were
some specific state bureau ready to
furnish information to inquiries the
railroads would no doubt lend their
hearty cooperation and in few years
Georgia would have a population'Do f
three or four million thrifty and in.
dustrious citizens.
1t is hoped that the state legisla.
ture, which has had this matter IN.
der discussion so often, will act upon
the advice of Mr.. Barrett, who brings
TO bear an abundance of practical
information and experience. and will
! create the office of bureau of immigra.
ton.

BUREAU OF IMMIGRATION
WANTED BY GEORGIA ALSO.

The Journal has long been an advo-
cate of the establishment of bureau
of immigration in Florida. The splen-
: did work which Hon. B. E. McLin, the
commissioner of agriculture, is doing
for the state, even with the meagre
equipment afforded him, would be suf-
ficient argument for such an institu-
sion even if there we're nothing else
upon which to base its establishment.
But with money, men, and facilities
for presenting the claims of Florida II
/ the outside world, results could be &C
complished which it is not possible
even to approach under present condi-
tons.
In line with this same argument We
now note that Georgia is agitating the
subject of a bureau OF immigration
and the Atlanta News has the follow
ing to say of it:
Mr.. Glascoek Barrett, who was in
charge of the Georgia exhibit at the
worlds fair. in St Louis, was in Sa-
vsnnah a few days ago and gave out
an interview to the Savannah News
in which he earnestly advocated the
establishment by the state Of a de
partment Of immigration.
Mr.. Barrett states that his expert
ence there and since he has returned
home leads him TO the opinion that
Georgia is losing thousands Of dollars
every year by not having some one
whose business it would be to an
swer inquiries in regard TO the state
and to do what he could to attract
immigrants here.
Such an officer, Mr. Ba rett thinks
: would receive the hearty cooperation
Of the railroads in the performance OF
Z his duties. The railroads would ma
turally be benefited at once more
than any other class. though all would
in time reap some benefit. Mr.. Bar
