ing on his farm, received notice that
unless he discharged them all of his
buildings would be burned. There
is said to be no objections to the
negroes except their color. At the
FIRST outbreak of trouble many of
the negroes became frightened and
left the country.
Importation of negroes for farm
work In Oklahoma has been respon-
sible for considerable trouble In the
last few years. 1t is claimed by cot.
ton growers that negores are nat
urally adapted to cotton s:owiny and
they make better help than Lie
men. Obviously they work much
q ,ieaper. Many of them haze been
brought up ON Texas and put in
the cotton fields. In the western part
of the state there has been more or
less trouble every year, and at times
bloodsh,d was narrowly averted.

States for 1907 and the monetary re-
turns therefrom have been recently
treated in these columns: the results
flowing from other important indus
tries deserve equal mention. for the
prosperity OF the country is not de-
pendent upon the gtowth and ex-
panse of single branch of endea.
yor. but hangs upon the symmetri-
ual DEVELOPMENT of all. Let us there
fore consider. the Fort Worth Re
cord says, briefly the status of the
iron and steel trade.
While unparalleled activity and
prosperity have marked the progress
OF all branches OF productive and
dlstributivc industries In the iron and
steel trade for the twelve months
ending December 81. 1907, the year
ending with 90 per cent OF produc-
tive capacity lying idle, little or
no new business profiered and not
many uncancollod orders carried over
as workable basis for the new
year.
The trade, which has shown un-
eXampled prosperity and activity for
the first ten months of 1907, was
staggered by adverse conditions
| threatened in October, manifesting
In November and eliminating in
December.
Within the space of two and n
half months conditions had changed
from the most tremendous activity
| In all branches of manufacture to q
paralysis involving more than one
| third Of the productive capacity of
every plant the country over.
/ The causes including this right
about in the orderly progress OF
manufacture came from without. Ex-
perts are OF the opinion that had
they arisen from within the trade
the change would have been much
more gradual.
The record OF 1906 had been I'M
exampled up to that time, for high
pressure activity and commensurate
returns. No Indications We're disoer'
nibie within the trade for any de-
parture from 1906 record TO ad-
yerscly affect the workings OF
| 1907. The only adverse menace TO
the prosperity lay in the unexpected
and IL was the unexpected that
happened. Loss OF confidence, fear
of unsound banking, overspeculd
tion-these We're the causes that
put brakes upon the cars OF progress
in the production of iron and steel
And strange as II may appear, the
oyerspeculation that helped stop the
wheels In these important metals
lay entirely outside the domain OF
the metal trade. But little. II any
speculation is INDUCED In where iron
and steel are opncerned. Orders are
legitimate. based on aetna and
pressing needs. or on requirements
easily discounted az the moment
Purchase of future delivery could
hardly he made when every branch
OF manufacture was s,faiT'ng every
nerve to keen up with actual orc Ira
for immediate use. The bar II spl
culation OF the products of the iron
and steel mills lies in this:
That the would.be purchaser for IN
ture account must take mis- turn IL
banking orders along with thos'
: who are eagerly grabbing every tor
for immediate use
Despite the adverse influences nj
tached TO the trade IN the last ;hre'
