standpatters Forcing a Trade War.

Chicago Record Herald.
 dispatch from Washington states
 that Secretaries Root and Shaw admit
 the failure of the efforts made by the
 executive to avert, by a temporary compromise, the impending tariff war
 with Germany.
 postponment of the date of application
 of the new German tarin to American goods either through a modus vivendi
 under the very limited reciprocity pro vision of the Dingley act or through 8 Liberalization of certain customs rules and methods of which German export CTS have complained for years. Such limited reciprocity as the existing law authorizes does not meet the wishes of the Berlin government, while any re- taxation of customs rules, however beneficial in itself would give Germany no special advantage. Other countries Vored-nation treatment could and would demand the extension of the re- formed rules to their respective citi- gems.
 Asethings stand, the day fixed for the putting of the new German tariff into effect-Mareh Twill witness the ap- plication of the high or maximum du- ties of that tariff to American commod- ities-that is. to such of them as are affected by the changes in the rates. True the Tapleyish standpatters have told us again and again that we can stand tariff war if Germany can; that she needs our meats, fruit, raw ma terials and other products a good deal more than we do the things we buy of her. and that fin any event the injury to our trade with her would be too slight to justify anxiety. But our farm CTS, merchants and exporters are not so cheerful and confident and Secre- tary Wilson, speaking for the agricult- ural industry he knows so well. frankly says that a tariff war with our second best customer would involve very se- rious losses.
 For the fiscal year 1905 our exports to Germany were valued at $194. 4.00O, ,000 and our imports from that Empire at $l18,000, 900. The increase since 1898 Is $102. .00O, ,000 in exports and $37,00O,000 In imports. Yet the standpatters would enter upon a trade war with such a customer with light hearti
 The administration realizes the grav- ty of the situation. But it can do noth- ng so long as the Senate treats fair md genuine reciprocity treaties as it ioes and as the standpatters regard he tariff as "a pile of bricks" andl re- yress," says the administration. If he standpatters force the tariff war, it will be all up with them on the peo. )le's day of reckoning.

Died in New 0rIeans--At One Time
 Employed in Advertiser OfEiee.
 Brady R. Warner, telegraph editor of The Times Democrat, and weIl-known and popular In Southern newspaper cir cles. died at his residence in Parkerson Place Wednesday night at 10 o'clock, after an illness of three weeks. During Christmas week he suffered an attack of the heart to which he finally suc- cumbed despite strong constitution and a magnificent courage that sus- tained him to the end. -. p.
 MT. Warner was born at Columbus, Ga, Sept. [. 1S4S. During the Civil War he served with credit in the Confederate ranks, being attached at various times to the 18th Alabama and Sth. Alabama regiments. At the close of the war he settled in Montgomery, Ala, beginning his long and honorable newspaper ea- reer on the stan of The Montgomery Advertiser.
 In 1878 he removed to Texas, enter ing the newspaper business at Rock dale. Subsequently he was connected with The Austin Statesman, and follow ing his service there went to Houston, where he became night editor of The Houston Post, position which he re- signed in 1898 to accept a place of re- sponsibility with the municipal govern
 
 Secretary of the Houston Cotton Ex- change. In 1909 he removed to New Orleans and accepted employment upon the staff of The Times Democrat, which he served as telegraph editor with marked ability and credit
 On Sept. 9, 1870. MT. Warner married Miss Martha Howell of Alabama, who, with five children, survive him. The children are Harry T. Warner, night editor of The Houston Post; Mrs. J. w. Lockett and Mrs. J. D. Duckett of Hous- ton. Mrs. Charles c. Morton of Teneha. Tex, and Brady w. Warner, assistant telegraph editor of The Times-Demo- crat. His mother and other relatives reside in Alabama.
 During his residence in New Orleans, Mir Warner, in spite of the confining nature of his duties, made many friends. He was man of genial disposition, de- servedly popular with his associates and highly esteemed by his friends, all of whom learn with deep regret of his death. He was newspaper man of recognized ability, attentive to his du- ties and in every way efficient.

'@rhe total figures are of the exports from twenty-three of the leading ports of the country. The six Southern ports named exported more than a third of the total exports, and the increase in value of their exports was more than thirty-seven per cent. of the increase at all ports.
 "The trend of this traffic toward the Gulf ports increasing now for a mum Der of years is destined to become stronger still. The twelve-month late ly ended has seen the completion of new line of railroad down the valley of the Mississippi after several years of shrewd and diligent engineering. Not far west of this another system is building the first section of hun- dred miles or so of road that Is event. ually to reach the Gulf. Still another route has just been finished to make an easy connection from points on and near the lower Missouri river across the country to the Mississippi Valley, following an existing line of the same system to reach New Orleans.
 "A fourth company is bit by bit build ing road that is soon dogtined to enter New Orleans. while the contract was lately awarded for a fifth enterprise which will build links to connect up several railroads for the purpose Of making a New Orleans and Denver through line. A sixth plan is that of another large system to get into the Louisiana metropolis by means of a line whic hat present seems to be no more than lumber railroad.
 ton the Atlantic side of the mountain ranges three new lines are now under construction to give coal routes to- the coast. One of these is from fuel regions in West Virginia. another is from the Kentucky and Southwestern Virginia fields, and the third is to ex- tend out of the Birmingham district of Alabama. Other roads are in prospect, and. besides. one important line in West Virginia has only lately been finished. a road which through it's in- innate connections will reach tide at Baltimore. It may be expected that new lines will also be constructed from the mineral regions of Alabama to the Gulf of Mexico. Several plans have been announced to bnild such roads. but as yet comparatively little has been done looking to their fulflilment. There is another traffic movement which fur ther efforts are beinsg made to accom- modate. 1t is that of coal from Ken lucky, West Virginia and Virginia to the Great Lakes, and two or three plans for lines northward from natures great store-h houses of fuel in those three States will probably be realized 1

A report is being circulated among some of the leading Republican politi- clans that President Roosevelt's choice for Chairman of the Republican State Odell is the Presidents Secretary, Will liam Loeb Jr. MT. Loeb was one of the few persons invited by President Roosevelt to meet speaker Wadsworth at the dinner given at the Executive Mansion Saturday night last in MT Wadsworth's honor.
 So far as can be learned the Presi- dent has not committed desire to have MT Loeb made State Chairman to any of the leaders in the reorganiza- tion movement It is said by some leading Republicans who have been in Washington recently however, that hints have been dropped to them which clearly indicated the direction in which the Presidents desires were pointing so far as the State Chairmanship is con- cerned.

THE TRUCK BUSINESS.
Interest of the Railroads in Building
 Up the Vegetable Industry.

Up the Vegetable Industry.
 Railroad Record.
 Writing in the Business Magazine of Knoxville. on the growth of the South, Mir. E. M. Mayo says that the great development of the iron and coal in dustries in Alabama and of the market gardening in the Southern part of the State has been largely due to the low rates made by the railroads.
 It costs very little if any more to ship vegetable from Southern Missis- sippi and Alabama to Chicago and St. Louis than 1t costs from Tennessee.
 Some years ago complaint was made by a shipper against this prac- tice and the interstate commerce com mission decided that the roads ought to charge more from Southern Ala bama and Mississippi. The effect of a rule of this kind would have been to cut the growers in the low part of these States out of the northern mar kets.
 The roads wanted to develop fruit and vegetable growing in the gulf coast section even if they did not make any money hauling these products to the distant markets They knew that if they could help build up 8 large industry of this kind they would get more passengers on their trains and they would get other freight to haul.
 The point which MT. Mayo makes is that all governments which undertake to make rates have to do it on the basis of distance. OI.o result is that the products of such country are not freely exchanged with the country itself. For example, the farmers of western Germany cannot sell their wheat in eastern Germany because of freight rates. consequently the west Germany farmers being near the coast have to export their surplus grain to England where they come in compe- tition with wheat from the United States, Russia and South America.
 The great development of the lumber business in the South during recent years has been made possible only by the facilities afforded by the railroads in getting the lumber to the seapoPts and giving access to inland markets by means of rates which enable the products of the Southern forests to compete with those. of the Northwest. Tn opening up timber lands by the construction of branch lines and as- sisting in the establishment of lumber plants the railroads have been no less active in exploiting the resources of the South than in the case of iron and coal industries It holds true of the lumber business of the South in equal measure that it must look for it's mar kets to distant points. It is only un- der the competition of locality with locality that this industry can hope to retain a system of transportation that will give to it markets not lim- ited by considerations of distance.

The Chinese are, perhaps, the most successful poultry raisers in the world. They do not feed the fowl, but make them pick up their own food, each flock being kept on the move, as sheep are on the range. The quality of this poul- try Is, however. poor.
