Great Northern 60 EXfend
Scope Of Service.

Following the arrival of the first
OF three fine Mogul freight engines
Saturday and Its delivery to the
New Orleans Great Northern Rail.
road, the new service on that line
between New Orleans and Angie
will be inaugurated in the near fu.
ture, and 1t is probable that with
the inauguration Of the new serv.
ice the line from New Orleans to
Angie will be treated as the main
line and the principal service placed
on that portion of the system.
Heretofore the principal service
has been operated between New
Orleans and Folsom, and trains on
the main line have gone only as far
as Bogalusa. With the inaugura
tion Of the new service, morning
trains to Covington will probably
be treated as trains over branch
lines and the train leaving New Or.
leans will go on to Angie. This
will be true particularly of the
train leaving New Orleans At 1920
a. m. Heretofore this train has At
Florenville made connection with
combination freight and passen.
ger train which went on to Boga-
lusa, and passengers gong to Bo-
galusa had to transfer at Floren
vile and 60 from there on a mixed
freight and passenger traln. With
the new service, the morning 1920
train will 90 straight to Angie, the
Covington coaches being switched
to Florenville and taken on by an
other engine. Instead of hauling
the freight cars from Florenville
to Bogaiusa in a mixed train, the
freight leaving New Orleans will
60 on as far as Angie, and cars for
St. Tammany points will be
switched at Florenvllle.
The st. Tammany Special, which
leaves New Orleans in the after
noon, will 60 through to Folsom,
as at present.
With the inauguration of the
new service, the time to Bogalusa
will be cut down at first by about
an hour, and later will be made
much less.

Great Benefit to the
South.

: The decision Of the Department
OF Commerce and Labor that the
alien contract labor law does not
stand in the way Of State solicit
ing immigration, and even paying
the passage money Of desirable I'M
migrants, means . great deal for
the South. The tide Of immlgra-
tion, largely induced by the trans.
atlantic steamship lines, has for
wears flowed almost entirely 70 the
Northern ports. and through them
to the northern tier of Stsses. The
South has received very few immi-
grants. Under this decision South
Carolina can continue to solicit i'm.
migration, can select the character
Of immigrants desired, and can aid
them in paying the expense of their
passage, and the other Southern
States can pursue the same policy.
TIE greatest advantage that the
Southern States will enjoy under
this decision is the opportunity to
select just the kind OF immigrants
desired. The great bulk who have
come to this country in recent years
have been of the least desirable
class-most OF them men not
trained to any particular trade
but the Southern State IN need of
cotton mill operatives will now be
able TO solicit their immigration ;
the State in need of iron workers
can induce men OF that class to
come, and each State can secure
the class Of immigrants it 10 most iE
need Of. The result will be that
the South w,ll'be able to solve the
most difficult problem with which it
10 at present confronted-that Of
securing an adequate labor supply
and the development of Southern
resources and Southern Industries
can be continued on . scale that
would be impossible If compelled to
rely on the present supply Of labor.

how to pick out the hens that
