Trip of Secretary Root Has BeGun To
 Besr Fruit.
 Washington. July 10--Sacretary Roots proposed visit to South America has begun to bear fruit. Brazil has 1Lst announced new tariff which re- duces the duty on flour and raany other American exports twenty per cent. and ia desiened to promote the development of commercial interchange between this country and Brazil
 Condensed milk. rubber seals. Y atches, varnishes, typewriters, pianos ice boxes, scales, wind mills and inks, (escepting writing inks,) are other articles on which the twenty per cont reduction on tariff Is granted But flour is tme most important commodity ir. the list. and the duties on bread st,.ffs have long been the subject of dispute between Brazil and the United Statos
 Failure to reduce the duty on flour. almost caused a breach of the relations between the two countries many years ago. and because of the exportation of large quantities of flour to Brazil, the change in duty favorable to this coun- try was of great importance.

ATKINSON NOW
BACKED BY
PLANTERS.
Big Sugar Men Get in
Behind Domicile
Policy.

Acting Governor Atkinson is being
powerfully sustained in the position he
! has taken, as president of the Board
! of immigration, of refusing aid to the
| Importation of plantation laborers
without the assurance from planters
/ of at least one acre of land and a
house to each head of family brought
/ here.
Mr. Giffard came to me today" the
Acting Governor said yesterday, land
told me that w. G.. Irwin & Co. were
in thorough accord with me upon the
policy of domiciling labor. He stated
that their plantations were all getting
! in line to meet the condition 1 have
| laid down of giving an acre of land
IN fee simple to every family of labor
immigrants
''One of their managers was in town
now, who was having land laid out III
Cne-acre lots for the expected immi-
grants. This is John A. Scott of Wal
Eaku. He is plotting a town site of
fifty homesteadS on that planta ton,
which will be given in fee simple to
la abCrers.
''Of course there are many little de-
tails to be arranged with the plant
ers. Some plantations, it is true, have
not fee simple land to offer, but in
such cases the Government will en-
deavor to assist in finding land for
those willing to conform to the policy.
"Olaa Sugar Co is not only coming
up to the condition, but by measure
doubling it. That company is laying
out two-acre lots as homesteads for
laborers. The work began last week
under authority of tho board of direct
ors. Moreover, these homesteads are
not merely being prepared for people
VINO may come, but are being offered
to people already in the country. 1t
is proposed to give fee simple title to
the land when the laborer has occu-
pied it for three years You are prob
ably aware that Mr.. Thurston went
over to the plantation last week on
this business"
Mr.. Atkinson went on to speak in
terms of warm appreciation of the cor
dial and enthusiastic support Mr.. Da-
mon, as fnancier of Olaa, had given to
the proposition.
This thing of Olaa,'' the Acting
Governor said, ''is one of the greatest
moves any pIdnldtlOn mas maQe In this
direction. Their going right ahead and |
giving fee simple land to people now
on the ground shows that they mean |
business"
Mr.. Atkinson felt justified in claim |
ing that the support he had already |
received, as above mentioned, from w |
G. Irwin & Co. and Olaa Sugar Co,
was the best of evidence to prove the |
soundness of the policy he had de- |
clared.
