COME SOUTH, YOUNG MEN.

For several days last week there
was IN session at Galveston, Tex.
convention of people who hac
emIgrated from Northern States
and settled in Texas. In addition
to the settlers themselves, there
were numerous visitors from North
ern States, attracted by the pecn-
liar character Of the convention.
Among the visitors who address
ed the convention was Mr. J. FL.
Hunter: banker and stockman of
Springfield, Ill. In the course of
his address, after expressing his
attachment to his State, he said:
"We have a surplus of popula-
ton in Illinois. Some 45 or so
per cent OF our land has gone into
the hands of renters. Because of
the high price of land our poor
young men have no hope of acquir-
ing 100 acres. Many have moved
into our towns and become clerks,
ETC.. etc They have abandoned
hope of acquiring land What
should have been done7 They
should haye been sent down here
to Louisiana and Texas and shown
your wonderful resources. Indiana,
Illinois snd Iowa all have large
class of men OF this character who
should be led here"
Here is presented a striking view
of a state of things which ought to
rebound not only to the benefit of
the young men of the over-crowded
Northern States, but also to the
development of our own States
We want white population Of the
right sort, and there can be nothing
better than these young men from
the Northern States. Here they can
buy land of the best quality at low
rates, and here all the natural con-
ditions are in their favor.
The Northern farmers who have
come to Louisiana are prospecting
as fruit and truck growers aud as
rice planters. There are no mys-
teries to be learned in these mat
ters, no apprenticeship to be
served. Louisiana ,yants two mil
lions more of white men. Mississ-
ppi needs as many millions more,
and there is room in Texas for ten
million people. Let the yonng
men from the North come on.
Here are all needed opportunities
% enable industrious, sober and |
thrifty men to acquire early pros
oerity. -Picayuae.

MIR. Rider Haggard, the English
novelist, has covered some 1000
miles of this country. mostly in the
company of Booth Tucker, head Of
the Volunteers of America. His
chief purpose has been to find lands
for colonies of Englishmen, but he
has been impressed by the menace
of the yellow man. He foresees
400, 900, 900 Cinnamon, trained IL
the industries and with countless
warships, seeking home in the
United States regardless of our
protests-for in his vision the
American people have lost their
vigor and efficiency by crowding
into the cities. "Back to the land
your people must CO." he says,
"they must be helped to get there. y
Else will the Chinese, needless Of

feebled city people, seize upon the

LETTER TO /. A. MARTIN,
New Iberia, La.

Dear Sir: The way to buy paint
is to go by the name. There is a
name never seen on sham paint or
weak paint or short measure paint:
Deyoe.
There are HUNDRED different names
in paint. Some are sham; some
weak; some short measure; and some
all there.
If there is another such paint as
Devoe lead and-zinc, we don't know
it, There are a few fairly good
paints; few; only one Devoe. A
gallon Devoe is worth gallon and-a-
half of those few.
Mf Aaron Higgins, of Plainfield,
N. j.. always used Is gallons of mixed
paint for his house. Last spring he
bought Is gallons of Deyoe and had 4
gallons left.

Special Dispatch 10 The Star.
NEW YORK, September 16-It might be
said with truth of today's stock market that
It showed a really remarkable degree OF
strength In view ofo the fact that attention
and discussion converged almost exclusively
upon the probabilities Of the weekly bank
statement. Preliminary estimates Of the loss
In cash which the banks have sustained this
week ranged from $1,000. 900 to upward OF
S10.o00.OOO and surplus reserves as they
were set forth in last Saturdays bank
statement amounted to less than s.. 600 600
The generally expected weak bank state
ment had. however. the effect Of depressing
activity rather than Of depressing prices
The market opened with a very uncertain
tone firm tendencies quickly developed and
a number of stocks even advanced smartly
above yesterdays closing figures. In the
railway list Canadian Pacific was conspicu-
Gus In this respect. and in the Industrial
quarter the United States Rubber shares
ross smartly on predictions that dividend
payments on the common would be begun
next month.
AS was the case yesterday, all the Wabash
Issues were notably firm and active in con-
nection with the contest which has arisen
for the control of the property, and the
other Gould stocks were sympathetically
hrm. Erie common was actively dealt in,
but the stock seemed to be again unfavor-
ably influenced by the uncertainty with
regard TO the disposition which will be
made of the Cincinnati. Hamilton and Day

The World of
Finance and Trade
NEW YORK COTTON
LIVERPOOL MET Yesterdays
BREAK.

Special Dispstch to The Star.
NEW YORK. September 16-Liverpool
| met the local break Of yesterday and the
foreign market showed the effects Of sell
ing from the south. There was evidently
not enough support in Liverpool to prevent
| a sharp break that led to an opening de-
cline in the local market. Both October
and December sold or points below the
low line OF yesterday and then steadied.
The low level reached early in the week
was not touched early in the day, but De-
cember sold at 1889. as compared with
1884 yesterday morning. There was more
disposition to cover short cotton and at
the same time less disposition to sell short.
The market for two weeks has shown that
however hard 1t may be to advance prices
owing TO the large amount OF cotton for
sale on any rise, there Is little money made
IN selling on a decline. In order to catch
nuctuation. 1t Is necessary to sell on sharp
advances and unless the cotton Ia covered
on declines profits slip away. The pro-
fessional trader has found this out and
was therefore buyer on the decline this
morning. Some pressure was In evidence
on the weakness abroad. but In the main
the tone did not show weakness and prices
recovered most OF the early loss before
the end OF the hour.
Houston receipts for Monday were estt-
a. IfoU OF lo,OOO bales, COM
pared with 11,OOO bales last year. The Iarre
receipts brought out some cotton SO that
ing. ''' ''-''
Trading here was Of the usual Saturday
ORDER. many Of the brokers being away
some large buying orders were executed
on the early decline and after this trading
became smaller. There was no snap to the
trade. but neither could the tone be called
weak. The deadlock was not broken and
showed no signs Of any radical change
Inc chronicle weather report was as fol-
lows: Advices are somewhat less sattsfac-
tory; The weather has favored picking as
rule and the crop Is being rapidly gath
cred: but from Texas there are Complaints
that the drought is unbroken except In a
rev localities. and In that state and some
sections elsewhere deterioration is claimed
from insect and other causes. On the other
hand Improvement In the crop Is reported
from some districts. The crop Is moving
freely.
Exports for the week were 122, 900 bales,
the same as last year. In sight figures
were 2SS. 600 bales, against 243 600 bales last
year. The visible supply. American. is l.
