WEALTH OF THE SOUTH.

| Those of the North whose esti
mate Of the industries Of the South
is based on rapid surveys through
car windows, will be surprised tC
learn that of the total exports OF
the country last year, Al per cent
was contributed by the South.
For long years after the war,
which prostrated its industries, the
South was regarded as paralyzed
and poverty stricken. Compare
sons between the fertile farms Of
the North, its smoking, hummiug
factories and heavy railway traffic,
with the long stretches in the South
where the sell looks thin and bar
ren and the towns desolate, have
created in the Northern mind de-
cidedly wrong impression, which
only official figures can set right
Among last years exports ex-
clusively from the South were cot
ton, 1879, ,965 ,Ol4 cotton seed oil,
$15, 125, ,SO2; cotton seed cake and
meal, $13. 1911 naval stores,
SIG, LOG, ,G43; phosphates, Sc, $780,
274. This makes a total $451 $780,
Oil exclusively Southern products
and this alone was nearly oDe-third
of all our domestic products ex
ports
But, besides the articles named,
the South exports other products
which it raises or manufactures in
common with other parts of the
country-timber, tobacco, petrO-
leum, cotton goods, provisions,
grain, coal, cattle, fruits, iron and
steel, wood manufactures, leather
aud it's share of such exports is
roughly estimated at 1888, 900, 900.
Hence total of $6l4 900, 900 or
ii per cent of the value of all the
exports of the country. Cotton is
still king, and the South is still the
garden spot of the earth. The val
ne of exports of raw cotton alone
exceeded the value of combined ex-
ports of breadstuffs, cattle, hogs,
and sheep, provisions and mineral
oils. 1t was almost three times as
great as the value of all iron and
steel exports, and two.thirds as
great as the value of all mannfac-
tured products.
Such figures as these proves such
wealth of Southern fields and such
industrial activity of the Southern
people that the Northern opinion
of the industrial South is compelled
to undergo a decided change.-Erie

FEDERAL CONTROL OF QUARAN.
TINE.

The recent utterances Of Senators
Morgan Of Alabama and McEnery
Of Louisiana hold out every en-
couragement that it will be possi-
BILE to solve the problem of quaran-
tine, and the part the Federal Gov
ernment should play in it, satisfac-
torily to all, thereby avoiding those
legal and constitutional questions
which have stood in the way here
tOfore.
That the entire Southern people
want Uniform and efficient quar-
antine no one disputes; nor is it
seriously disputed that the best re-
suits can be secured only through
turning this matter over to Gen.
tral authority that will be above
local prejndices and influences,

lish throughout the South an equal

ness. of the health officials of a
neighb0ring State over whom it has
no control or discipline and whose
work it cannot even watch. Nearly
all the Gulf and South Atlantic
States have slipped up on quarantine
at one time or another. Louisiana
was guilty this year; Texas in 1908,
Mississippi in 1897, Florida in 'SS
and Georgia in 1884. Under the
present system the States have not
only to watch Central and South

WHERE WE GET OUR SALT.

Salt is is so common an article
that one is astonished when he
realizes the amount of it produced
in the United States during the
year 1904. The number Of bar
rels was 22,030,002, value at
$6,02l, ,222. In spite Of this en-
ormous output coming mostly
from New York and Michigan,
the United States imported salt to
the value Of over half million
dollars and exported 25,5OS, SIT
pounds, valued at 500, ,O66. The
deposits of salt in the United States
are not numerous, those in New
York, Michigan, Ohio, Kansas and
Louisiana being the only ones
which are worded commercially.

We men can view quarantine
regulations with the spirit of entire
disinterestedness, then, aud not
until then will frictions aud jeal-
Ouies cease. But when precautions
are urged to protect community
from infection, then there is cry
of commercialism. "No you
DON'T" the other fellow exclaims,
"while we are protecting your doors
as we'll as our own yOu will open
traffic with your neighbors to our
disadvantage. Human nature needs
a more plentiful supply of gener-
osity, charity and Christian for
bearance and less jealousy, envy,

clearly marked and that the FEEDER
all Government has und0ubted
control over quarantine with for
eign countries and in the matter of
interstate commerce. It is its duty
to keep infectious and contagious
diseases out of the country, and to
maintain a control over interstate
commerce and guarantees that will
prevent the squabbles and disagree
ments that come with every fever
outbreak.
Senator Morgan takes much the
same view, that the relative rights
and powers Of the Federal and
State Government need not be
brought into the discussion; as the
Southern States, through their leg
islatures can give the United States
whatever quarantine power may be
necessary for the protection of the
South from the invasion Of the dis
ease.

roads:
"Good roads not only saves mo-

increase the price of land, bring in
immigration and make a country
rich and prosperous. And it is
strange that there are so few OF

A HOWL FTOM NEW ENGLAND.

The fact that the farmers of the
South are determined to get for this
years crop of cotton what it is
worth, and their organization the
Southern Cotton Growers AssOcia-
ton decided its recent convention
that ii cents shall be the minimum
price Of cotton, are matters that do
not seem to sit well on the stomach
of the New England spinners who
in the past have grown rich mann
featuring cotton they bought for 3
and cents pound, while the men
in the South who produced it were
reduced to bankruptcy. Nearly all
the New England newspapers are
denouncing the action of the Ash.
vile convention, and declaring
that the Southern Cotton Grower S
Association is a dangerous trust
which should be proceeded against
legally and broken up. The fol-
lowing is a specimen wall that we
find in the editorial columns Of the
Hartford Times:
"The Southern Cotton Associa-
ton is composed Of the growers,
spinners and manufacturers Of cot
ton, and also the cotton workers of
the Southern States. Att meeting
held in Ashville, N. c., last Thurs
day it was voted that the minimum
price of the staple shall be Ii cents
a pound. This seems to have been
compromise between those who
desired to make the price 161s cents
and those who favored IL cents.
Cotton is an article of insterstate
commerce, aud any organized effort
is clearly violation Of the Sher-
man antitrust law. The attorne y
general Of the Uuited States should
institute proceedings at once to
