ably as it can be grown, with the re-
suit that cotton mills have sprulg up
all over the south, especially in the
Carolinas. These southern mills have
brought about a decided change In the
lines of commercial distribution and
have likewise stimulated competition to |
such an extent that cotton prices are |
soaring, to the intense satisfaction Of
the southern planter. The inc .elsed |
activity of the. gulf ports within the |
last decade has been another large fac
tor in contributing to the present pros
perlty Of ten southern States. OF last
years cotton crop Of 10,2T1,612 bales
the gulf ports received 6,692, 761 bales,
or two-thirds, while the Atlantic ports
had to be content with only 3,57S,S51
bales. Figures Of the export trade In
cotton show that SO per cent of the
crop sought foreign markets.
Different factors have contributed to
this era Of plenty. The first undoubt-
eddy, is the marvellous resources with
which this country is blessed. Naxt
as a factor in industrial greatness
comes the business ability of Ameri-
cans. In inventiveness and aptitude to
adjust himself rapidly to changing con-
ditions and willingness to discard old
and obsolete methods for those new and
untried, In Imagination to- see indus
trial possibilities and courage to act
on his convictions, the American bust
ness man Is without peer.
| The American railroad Is another
factor, and by no means small one,
in the country's Astounding prosperity.
Ever since the first steel rails, the pre-
cursors of civilization, pushed their
way slowly cross the prairies Of the
middle west, climbed the Rocky Noun
tains by tortuous paths and came to
stop only when the waves Of the Pacific
confronted them the great problem Of
| railroad managers has been to develop
the country, to increase traffic and to
cause two blades of grass to grow
where but one has grown before. That
they have succeeded beyond all hopes
Is proved by the commercial reports
and the industrial statistics of the year
Just passed, and this success has been
won under a system free from onerous
government regulation. 1t has not been
necessary to submit every emergency
rate to a government commission for
approval or condemnation nor to con
duct business according to rates fixed
by a body of laymen chosen by the
president, possibly for political reasons,
The experience of European countries
whose railroads are under government
control gives reason for the assertion
made by competent authorities, that Il
American railways were managed al
are those in old world lands American
railroad managers would not have beer
called upon to furnish facilities TO
moving more than 100000 carload
In 1905 nor would the new cars ant
locomotives ordered In the first forty
one weeks of 1905 be equal to the en-
tire number ordered In 1904.
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1906-04-14

The final trade statistics for the
year 1905 confirm the figures of the
preliminary forecasts and show a phe-
nomenal degree of prosperity through
out the country. So enormous was the
product Of farm, mine and factory that
had it been moved at one time it would
have filed 33,194,S57 freight cars, a.
100000 more than would have been
required In the prosperous year OF
1904. Thirty-three million freight cars,
II made up into one train of fabulous
length, would extend for a distance of
224,4 400 miles, or would girdle the
earth about nine times at the equator.
If this mythical train, with the S25, 900
locomotives which would be required
to haul 1t, had Travelled out into space
guls would have been putting through
the valleys Of earth's satellite before
the conductors buggy had rumbled out
Of the freight yards at the starting
point. Merely to store the cars and
/ engines in such a train would require
the use of nearly all the railway mile
age in the United States,
One of the most striking examples
of the vast increase in the volume of
business for the year Is to be found In
the western livestock industry. During
the summer and in the fall Of 1905 the
! tourist on any of the big western trunk
lines caught flying glimpses Of stock
pens filled with long horned, ferocious.
looking steers, fiocks Of huddled sheep
and CARLOADS of horses ana mules. AL
these pens were filed and emptied
many times during the year, each con
tributing its quota to the enormous
total of livestock that was ship

On the Pacific coast, where fifty
years ago few gold-mad prospectors,
acting as an advance guard for eastern
civilization, carried on desultory
warfare with Indians, there are to-day
thriving, hustling towns and thickly
settled farming communities. Ono Of
the most important factors In this
prosperity is the huge lumber traffic
that originates in the vast forests OF
northern California, Oregon and Wash
ington. Annually for the last three
years more than 1,OOO,O00,000 feet Of
redwood, pine and fir have been taken
from these almost inexhaustible timber
tracts and shipped to California coast
points. During the year just past the
arrivals at these same points averaged
more than 1OO,000OO0 feet a month, a
record that no former year can surpass.
In 1904 lumber shipments from Wash
ington to Oregon reached a total OF
COG, 100000 feet, 195,5OO,OOO feet of
which went to foreign markets. The
completed figures for the lumber trade
of 1905 from tbese two States have not
been Issued as yet but as more than
iOO.0O0,000 feet passed into domestic
and foreign trade from Tacoma alone
II is taken for granted that IN this
industry, as in all the others, there has
been the same astounding gain.
Not only do the United States con
tribute more than their share Of food
stuffs to the world, but they furnish

Compared with other constitutionally
governed countries, Sweden has the
most limited suffrage in the world. Ac-
cording to Swedish statistics, only one
fourth Of the grown men who are per-
sonally qualified have a political vote.
The lower house of Parliament, which

What a lot of human peacocks !here
are in the world. They cry for bau-
bles. They want colors and fuss and
feathers and jewels. They spend ef-
fort and time and energy for a thou
sand things that are nothing but van
ity. King Edward, in the kindness OF
his heart, bestowed on the Mikado the
insignia of the order Of the garter.
OF course there Is q bit of romantic
history about this bauble. 1t Is al
legged to be something to be entitled
to wear it. 1t will not drive away dis
ease; 1t contains no warmth; 1t Is not
particularly handsome. On the bar
gain counter the average person would
pass it by. And the Mikado, who
looks like the blazing sun when he
dons all of his medals, had about as
much need for King Edwards gift as
a goat has for halo. Yet Prince Ar
thur of Connaught, with his suite, was
sent to Japan to present the ribbon to
the Mikado. There were speeches
fowery and meaningless; there was
grand reception; there was knee
bending and head-ducklng. The little
trip will cost the British government
which is just now sitting up nights

about $4,000. We are peacocks all
from a king down to the last humble
citizen who wants striped shirt and

There was a time when the exhort-

the college man to regenerate society.
That was before James II. Hyde, Sen-
ator Penrose and Robert III. McCurdy
were graduated from Harvard or

tor Of laws by Yale or the fact was
generally known that Thomas Collier
Plat had studied at Yale, Benjamin
B. Odell. Jr.. at Columbia and Senator
Burton Of Kansas at De Paw Univer-

some slight loss of confidence in the
college man as means of regenera-

man are heaping upon her.

Did you ever consider how much
trouble and turmoil in the world Is
stirred up by loafers? Do it and you
will be surprised. Investigate carefully
and you will find that nine of the ten
fuses and quarrels that you know Of
In your town or neighborhood were
started by loafers who had no business
OF their own to attend to and so got
busy with other peoples affairs. The
old juvenile proverb that Satan finds
some mischief still for idle hands to
do" Is as true as gospel. There can be
no such thing as absolute idleness. Ac-
tLyity of some kind is essential to exist
ence. Men and women have to do some
thing, and when they have no work of
their own to occupy their minds they
get busy with the affairs of others and
make trouble always.
