daily papers Of the next day, the 9th

public viii want to know what Mr..
Roosevelt will have 10 say on the two
important topics of federal supervision
of interstate railway commerce and
farin refision. There seems to be
general impression that the president
will stand by his former declarations,
especially on the first-named subject
aud that he will have something Of in
terest to the people to say. We hope
he will pronounce himself on the other
also We have the feeling that Mr..
Roosevelt is not hearty supporter OF
ali the provisions Of the Dingley bill;
that he feels the time has come when
many Of them should be modified for
the benefit of the American consumers.
If this lie so we hOpe-and we believe
he will nave the manhood to come

message indicate that it will be very
important one to the American people.

THE CALL OF THE SOUTH
What She Needs Is More People 20
Increase Her Wealth by Developing
Her Natural Resources

What the south needs today Is peo-
pie.
What the energies Of our leaders III
the industrial and commercial world
should be directed To is 10 discover
how to get more people 10 come and
live with Us, to get their living ont Of
our soil by the work they do with rs
and spend their money with us 70 help
still other people make their living
Wealth is actually going to waste
every day in these southern states all
around us for the want Of folks TO No.
duce it out of the raw material about
us on every hand. For wealth is made
by work of men applied To that of na-
ture. 1t takes wealth produced in one
place some times to produce it in an
other in the quickest and best way
In other words. 1t takes money To ap-
ply TO work to the best advantage in
many cases. That is where capital
comes in. Capital facilities work.
Capital makes labor more effective
The south has made noble strides i'll
producing wealth-another terms for
developing her resources-and she has
done it in the best. most effective way,
by getting the work and doing 1t her
self-not waiting for outsiders TO do it
for her Much of the doing OF it has
been very hard. for there was little
capital to make the work easier and
lessen the labor and shorten the time
of fulillment.
But it has been accomplished. The
south comes before the world now as
one who should say: See the wealth
we have made by ourselves for our
selves out of the earth. our climate, our
timber, our water. See our $500, 900
tons of pig-iron last year, our 10,OOO,OCo
tons of bituminous coal, our $500, .0OO,-
600 in cotton mills turning 100000
spindles, our ,25O,OOOOO0 in manu-
factures turning out 81 ,6O0,00O,O00
worth of products, our 10000 miles of
railway, our farms producing S1,7OO,-
100000. That's what we made last
year, and we have hardly begun TO use
what nature has given us. There are
rot enough of us TO develop our re-
sources. We have made money: you
can do it, too, if you will. We invite
you to come among us and prosper
with us and we will all thereby pros
per more.
Let the south say that so the world
will hear it, and that is all she needs.
That is, what the south needs is adj
vertising And how best to advertise
is the question for our business men
to settle. 1t is the question they all
have to settle for themselves in their
individual lines of business. SO in
some concerted action let them settle
it for the wealth.-Raleigh

TIE CALL OF THE SOUTH.

We publish in another column an
editorial from The Times, OF Raleigh.
headed The Call of the South" which
we wish all our readers TO note It
shows what the south needs and how
we can secure aid in building up our
section: it demonstrates the necessity
TO this section of the country Of the
right kind of immigration. We have
here the undeyeloped resources in
mining, agriculture and manufacture
ing. What we need IS the right kind
of men to develop these latent possibil-
tiles. We want men with capital and
we want men with muscle and sinews
TO invest and TO scheme and also TO
work and to labor. There is room in
the south for both classes of new cit
izens. There is opportunity here for
the capitalist, for the small farm own
er and for the mechanic and labor class
Of wage-earner. The south has q well
come for all classes Of honest, indus
trious men who may come among our
people. If they come with their money
TO invest as capital, well and good If
they come without funds but with a
good right arm and an honest heart
determined to work out their own life's
calling by the sweat of their face. they.
resources here awaiting development
We need more people of the right kind
than We have to develop these latent
resources. Let them come. All we
ask is that they be honest, law abiding
citizens of the country from which they
emigrate. The capitalist and the la
borer will be equally welcomed We
do not want the anarchist and the
slum population of the northern, or Of
the European cities. They can do
nothing but harm to any community in
which they settle. When we adyo-
cate immigration we wish it to be un-
derstood that We do not refer to this
class of the worlds population; but we
mean the thrifty, hard working people
who are invited to come among us for
the purpose of bettering their condition
and Of becoming lawabiding, property
producing citizens. We do not see
how there can be any objection on the
part of our people to the Introduction
of this class of immigrants. This and
this only is the class OF immigrants
which the leaders in the south of this
movement are striving to secure They
want none other and in their efforts
they should have the hearty support of
all our people and no doubt they will
when our people understand the condi-
tlons under which they come among us
and the part they are to play in the de-
yelopment Of our section.

CHILDREN ACCORDING TO LAW.

Under the above heading the Wash
ington Post of last Friday contained
an editorial which we give below. We
hope President Roosevelt has seen this
article and has given it careful atten-
ton. especially the position taken in
the woman'S club referred to by the
maiden lady from Buffalo," who wish
ed to ''legislate the limit number" Of
children per family and of the Mrs.
Smith who opposed this idea because
she did not have any children. We
wish the maiden lady from Buffalo"
had been given opportunity by the
members of the club present at that
meeting TO more fully elaborate her
proposition for the more equal distri-
button Of births. We have great Curl
csity to know just how she would
manage this delicate question. We
must say that it Will take pretty strong
argument to convince us that this
theory can be put into successful prac-

mu, h sympathy for Mrs. Smith who
felt repugnance to legislating on the
number Of children to the family ''be-
cause she did not have any The
members of this club seem to be hope
lessiy divided on the question as to
how to regulate the number of children
per family. They should appeal to
Mr.. Roosevelt TO suggest a compromise
measure which would meet the approx

faIo' and s-,e Mrs Smith who has no
children

10 impel them to ventures in more i'm
practicable fields.
An amusing illustration of this has
lately come To light in New York.
where the woman's club for political
study. at one Of its regular meetings,
discussed a number OF topics, ranging
from female snobbisnness and the
right OF the sex to carry revolvers TO
the social evil and the statutory re-
striction of the number of children in
families. The proposition was ad-
vanced that as the suDerfiuous chill
dren of the poor and shiftless can not
be drowned. as litters Of kittens are,
"the better class of people can not
have childen, because they are Obliged
to support the children of the poor.
Then uprose a spinster from Bunaio-
who declared that the legislature ought
to limit the number of children ac-
cording to the means of the parents;
in other words, so much bullion. so
many bdbies--no dollars, no daddIes.
The progressive maiden lady did not
venture to state how exactly she would
carry out her reform, nor suggest by
what methods she would propose TO
enforce the law. What they might be
for tf
speculation, but we refrain. Possibly
a large corps of special officers with
inuuisitoriaI powers was intended, and
probably she had in mind for one
thing that any results of infract1on OF
the statute should be disposed OF in
like manner with superfuous kittens,
though she evidently contemplated no
possibility save strict compliance with
the will of the legislature.
After this announcement, the CEN
ter of debate shifted to another topic.
and in reply to the question. What
about the protection Of our own boys
and girls ?'' a courageous married
woman, bristling with mOther1y in
stinct, said, Garry revolvers." There

Clipped in again with, "Legislate the
limit number This led another lady
to suggest a change of subject, and
able posters were taken in hand, but
the family limit popped up again, until
Mrs. Smith interposed with, Lets not
legislate on the number of children: I
haven't any, which sage and logical
point of view seems to have given the
subject a uuieturs for the night. We
do not despair. however, of seeing the
Buffalo proposition enacted into law.
There are many equally sane and prac-
hi ia afJ1tn nd

working details, as they say in archi-
lecture, are disclosed. something may
