SOUTHERN FARMS.
Rapid Increase in Values Makes the
Whole South Prosperous.
Manufacturers Record.

While 1t Is true that the Industrial
development of the South is going for
ward with amazing rapidity, it is never.
theless true that, by virtue of the ex.
tent of the agricultural interests in
the South, agriculture Is yet the foun
dation of the business of that section
A change from poverty to prosperity
Of the farmer, and a change from land
without selling value to land in de
mand at an advance of SO to $50 per
cent. over the nominal price of one or
two years ago, is the most far reaching
development in Southern advancement
Of the last quarter of a century.
1t Is far-reaching in many ways. 1t
means that within the last year or two
Southern farm properties have increas.
ed not less than 81 200, 100000 in value,
probably at least $1,5O0,000,000. But
more than that, 1t means that under
this improved financial condition the
Southern farmer has gained new cour-
age, new backbone; that he has learned
how to market his cotton crop; that he
has fought to finish the great battle
as to whether the producer or the spec.
ulator is to control the price of his

tire handling of cotton from the field
to the factory, whether the factory be
in this country or in Europe, has en-.
tered upon an entirely new stage In its
history. 1t also means that land vii.
be more thoroughly cultivated, for the
successful man. whether he be
farmer, a merchant, or a manufacturer,
is always better able to work to good
than the one who is fighting
a losing battle.
More and more the Investigation Of
agriculture has gone on and more and
more have fruit growing and truck
raising, "hog and hominy," with the
at home rather than In the
West, been developed throughout the
South.

value of date importations is, roughly
speaking, half a million dollars. This
consists largely of the cheaper grades
of dates, the finer varieties from the

except in very small quantities. These

by Mayor Blevin. He said in part:
AT all times and in all countries
there are two parties-the Democratic
and the Aristocratic. One of these
parties is for the people and the other
is against them. In the last year, J
have visited nearly every country of
the world, and find these two parties
everywhere. And, in every country
the Democratic party is growing
stronger and the Aristocratic party
growing weaker. Aristocracy is grad
uaIIy dying out of the world. In this
country there is one party that Is
much nearer the people than tho
other. That is the Democratic party"

pie throngcd about Mr.. Bryan's car

GREAT RUSH

reservation nt IL O'Clock noon ON the
Goth of October, when almost the en-
tire reservation will he thown open,
in accordance with the presidential
proclamation. For many years il has
been known that there was n large
gold and silver mineral zone in the
Walker river country, and, in spite of
the vigilance of the Indian police,
hundreds of miners have worked in
the mountains, noting the position OF
valuable grounds, which they eNpecr
to locate as soon as the land is thrown

THE HILL
BRENT SCANDAL

Salt Lake City. Oct. 13.-William
Hill and MT,s. Anna Bent, charged
separately and jointly with wrecking
the peace and matrimonial happiness
of two Colorado families, are believed
to be in Salt Lake City, though it is
not at all unlikely that they passed
through the city on Monday or Tues
day and are now headed for Puget
Sound.
Papers were served on the crring
couple in n rather melodramatic FASH
ion while they were at lunch in the
Colorado Springs boarding house, at
which they spent most of the summer.
Mrs. Bent had planned to leave the
week previous for Seattle, but rcmin-
ed i'm order to spend a few more days
in Hill's company. She had never
meant to allow the papers to be serv-
ed, and friends of the couple state
that neither one of them will ever APP
pear i'm court.
Mrs. A. B. Wiswell, the proprietor
of the boarding house, speaks highly
of the way the two behaved them
selves while stopping there. They
posed as cousins and completely de-
ceived the good lady until the abrupt
serving of the trial notice. Mrs. Wis
well says they occupied separate
rooms and never did anything to
arouse suspicion. They lived n rath-
err gay life, inviting friends to little
dinner parties ut the Antlcrs, the
Casino and on Sightseeing trips.

ghter of the Ouray banker, is said to
