OPPORTUNITIES OF THE SOUTH.

Col. J. B. Killebrew in South
ern Farm Magazine of Baltimore
for March saws: ono other coun-
try on the globe possesses such
material advantages or SO many
opportunities for the accumula-
ton of money as the Southern
States. From whatever point one
may view them they are unrival-
ed. Considered in reference to
the amenity, healthfulness and
productiveness of the climate, the
South stands without a peer.
When we consider the adaptability
of the soils to a diversification of
crops embracing all those vege-
table products most coveted by
man, no other explored region of
the globe can match the South.
Take any other country in any
other portion of the world and
compare 1t with the Southern
States in this particular, and it
will fall far short of them. Where
else in the world may be produced
all the bread grains and food pro-
ducts, and the textiles with which
to clothe the people, and the
golden fruits that surpass in
beauty and flavor the apples
guarded by Hesperides? And to
these may bo added all the metals
that are of service to mankind,
from the gold which forms the
money standard to the iron upon
which civilization rests.

SOUTHERN FACTORIES.

Marietta has new canning factory,
but Botetourt county, Virginia, is
notable as the situs of a fiourishing
canning industry which has grown up
during the past few years. The pack
this year is expected to be on large
scale, and writer in the Fincastle
Herald states that packers have every
reason to hope for good prices, Eot-
outstanding the prospects oe large
output. The Virginia Canning Go. at
Buchanan, so the writer states, furn-
ishes practically all the cans used in
Botetourt, and already an agent in the
southern part of the county, where the
largest business is done, has made con-
tracts for the coming season for more
than 100000 cans, and it is estimated
that about $4,000 cases of cans have
been contracted for in the whole
county. Should the probabilities
eventuate this years pack in the
county will be more than 100000
cases, and the tomato crop there viii
represent more than 100000. Bote-
tourt's experience can be profitablY
duplicated in other counties in Vir-
ginia and the Southern States gener-
ally. 1t involves, of course, foresight
and business judgment on the part of
both the growers of tomatoes or other
vegetables and fruits for canning and
of the packers. At present the South
is a big customer for goods canned
elsewhere 1t has within itself ability
to dominate the packing industry.

COBB RURAL ROUTES SAVED.

A Washington special of March 2nd
says owing to the efforts of Congress-
man Gordon Lee and Senator Clay, the
abolition of several rural delivery
routes in Cobb county has been pre-
vented. Under the plans of the fourth
assistant postmaster general, it was
proposed to do away with certain Cobb
county routes. The people who had
been enjoying this service were con-
siderably wrought up over the matter,
and several days ago Congressman Lee
and. Senator Clay took the matter up
with the department officials To-day
they received information that the
department has in Difference to their
wishes decided to make no change in

GOING AWAY TO SCHOOL.

Despite the figures given by Prof.
Bessey of the state university, and
quoted at the alumni banquet the 9TH
er night by Prof. Bodwell, showing
that the percentage of men who were
successful in business increases with
the length of time spent in school and
college work, there is a tendency
among men to give up school today
and rush into business. 1t seems to
so many young men that they are los
ing time in studying literature and
Latin and mathematics, and that they
could make more progress adding fig
ures in an account book. So many fail

language'training study in the world
they will never be able to rise up as
opportunities offer, and will always be
held down near the level at which
they start. 1t is true, of course, that
some men win what is termed sue
cess, who have not had education in
any shape, but these are the naturally
keen men who would have made easier
successes If they had had educational
foundations, in the first place.

too much of tendency to overlool

MIR. BRYAN,s CANDIDACY.

1t is evident that Mr., Bryan is at
tracing more attention from the va
rious influential members of his party
just at the present time than he has
before since his last defeat for the
presidency. His vacation has not in
jured him in any way and he comes
home to meet a party that is looking
for leader in whom to entrust it's
campaign in 1908, Mr.. Bryan was
formerly termed a radical by his con-
stituents, but his rival, Hearst, is so
much more insanely erratic that Mr..
Bryan now seems the tamest man
available. The reforms which have
been instituted by Mr., Roosevelt will
also have an effect of placing Mr.. Bry-
an more in harmony with the public
mind, and for these reasons it would
be no surprising thing to see the lead
er who has twice taken his party to
defeat, rally the separated elements
OF the ranks and engage in very
spirited campaign.

of his party in 1908, there can be no

or. Hearst In bigger man with his
party today than he has been In the
past, and his effort will be backed by
money. though he can not, Of course,
win out. And then there are, here
and there, influential members OF the
democratic party who once stood for
Bryan, who are not as enthusiastic
today. For instance, In our own state
Mr.. Hitchcock was once the champion
of BRYAN, and the WorldHerald was
called "Bryans paper" Mr.. Bryan
failed TO turn the United States SEN
atorship to Mr. Hitchcock at an OPP
perfume moment, however, and the
sting of ingratitude for services that
had been rendered by the newspaper
man have left bad taste in his mouth.
One of the strong signs OF the times
In this regard was the interview
which was sent to the east on special
telegraph wires, given by Mr.. Tibbles,
formerly candidate for vice president
on the populist ticket, in which II Is
limited that Bryan is now tool Of
the trusts. While the World.Herald
has not come out openly against the
silver.tongued orator, yet Mr.. Tibbles
is In the World-Herald Office and this
interview comes as keynote to the
feeling OF the editor, Mr.. Hitchcock.
So that, all in all, with such men
as Hitchcock and Hearst and others

dacy, II may be seen that there will
be something Of n struggle in the par.

The dispatches sent from Norfolk.
by railroad men of this city. to senat.
ors at Washington, protesting against
the rigid anti.pass clause in the rail
road rate bill, have, together with
those received from other points of
similar nature, had the effect of help
ing to throw the bill back for another
discussion in congress, as Is shown
by the following Washington report:
Probably never before In the history
OF the United States senate has such
a storm of kilograms settled down on
that august body as was precipitated
by the proposed anti-pass clause in
of free transportation to railway en-
ployes. Senators Millard and Burkett
were inundated by the yellow slips.
The two Nebraskans found them at
their homes, their clubs and in their
committee rooms, while pages brought
them in heaping basketsfull to their
desks in the senate chamber. AS a
result of this storm, and because OF
other mutilations of the bill by the
conferees, the measure has been sent
back to conference. The folly Of the
rigid anti-pass clause was shown up
on the senate floor when 1t was found
that under its provision the crews of
trains would be compelled to purchase
tickets before they could undertake
their duties. AS for the hardships II
would have worked, both to employer
and employe, they were found to be
almost without number. It would have
prevented the prompt movement OF
track laborers and train crews, have
broken up families, would have rem
dered impossible such rescue work as
was undertaken by the railroads or
the occasion of the San Francisco hor
ror and would have resulted in mucf
actual suffering. In several direc
tions, also, the conferees exceeded
their rights by injecting words ant
clauses that had the effect of engraft
ing new legislation on the bill. AS
protest against this action the mea
sure was referred back for furthe
consideration and correction. Th
chief regret, however, lies in the fac
that this vexed piece of Legislation
again is under discussion, and at
time when it was believed that cor
gress was we'll through with it."

HAS HE EARNED A THIRD TERM?

HAS HE EARNED A Third TERM
In story that was telegraphed from
Washington this week to one OF the
Nebraska papers, good portion OF
column was used to tell how persist
emily Congressman Mccarthy had
worked to secure pension for a FIRE.
mont widow and how, after the pen
sion was secured, the widow found
that she had money coming from an
other source and was honest enough
to send back her pension money.
What Mr.. Mccarthy intended to bring
out, when he inspired the eastern cor
respondent to wire several hundred
words of the story, though 1t was
merely one of those incidents which
probably occur In the careers Of all
representatives in congress, was the
fact that he had been doing something
during his four years down at Wash
ington, even though 1t were nothing
more than working to secure pen
sion for the Fremont widow who didn't
need 1t. But that kind of campaign
material will not renomnate Mr.. Nc
Carthy. Thus far working for pen
sions and for rural routes that would
have come anyway. are all the accom-
plishments to which he has been able
to point.
But the people of Nebraska are
growing tired Of hearing congressman
point to few little details which al
ways have to be looked after in con-
gress, as accomplishments that justify
their return to the national legislature.
There are always number of little
things that come up in a congress-
mans path, such as looking after pen
sions, looking out for rural routes,
recommending postmasters for ap-
pointment, distributing free garden
seeds to constituents, sending copies
of the Congressional Record out
through the country, eating three
times day and voting on questions
that come along-though we OF the
Third Nebraska have not forgotten the
time when even voting lin the case OF
the salary grab bilD was neglected by
our able representative.
But this country is getting a littl.
tired Of hearing these various thing,
held up as reasons why we should re
elect a man at $4,000 per year to
job that might just as well be file,
by someone who can do some good t,
t his country.
Two terms in congress are prac
tically conceded to the Representative
: who doesn't do anything so very ba,
in his first term. 1t is admitted tha
in one term a congressman has no
had much time to get into the game
: But when 1t comes to the third tern

fact that the politician has drawn hi
salary and done the things that an
school boy could do, before we sen
