CAPT. .. F. MERRY At HOME.

After a five weeks tour Of Illinois.
in the interest of the Immigration de.
partment of the Illinois Central rail
read, Capt. j. F. Merry arrived home
/, Saturday afternoon. Cecil Adams al
so returned that evening, and H. ].
Schwietert on Monday night Captain
Merry was seen by representative
Of this paper Monday morning, and
gave out tliis following information:
THE trip was all that We expected
Of 1t and more, too. We stopped two
days each in fifteen towns in central
Illinois, and the number of daily Wis.
itors to >our exhibit car was from
two to seven hundred, and at every
point where parties who had been
thinking OF locating in the South, on
hearing my lecture and after carefully
examining the exhibit. decided they
would visit that country, with view
OF locating, II they found conditions
as we reported and as were Indicated
by the products on exhibition.
Our exhibit consisted of cotton,
corn. both on the stalk and on the
ear. from dozen Northern farmers
who were located in the Southern
states we represented. Alfalfa and
Japanese clover, red clover, Bermuda
grass, COW pea hay. oats, winter
whnQf oil do nf
fruits and vegetables. 1t was de-
oidedly the best exhibit, have, ever
seen together, and attracted good
deal of attention.
I'VE notified the teachers from
the different schools to- visit the car,
and they were pleased, of course, to
do so, as few Of them had ever WIS.,
tied the south and had little concep.
ton of how cotton appeared in the
field. AT one point, the High school
pupils came to the car, and as sever
al Of them were to have compositions
the following Friday, they took their
subjects from what they saw in the
car. One was going to write about
cotton. another alfalfa, and another
took sugar cane. We, of course, fur
nished them with literature concern
ing these various products and how
they were grown.
THE lectures were interesting only
to those who either now own lands in
the South, or who contemplate To-
eating in that territory. At some
points the coach would be filled, and
at others we would have from 90 to
40 people. The interested folk did
not seem to tire of my recitations of
the resources and possibilities of that
Southern country, and of what our
Northern farmers, now located there,
are doing. We carried with us on
the trains one lecture coach and a
baggage car, containing the exhibit"
A. H. Hanson, passenger traffic
manager of the same company and a
personal friend of Captain Merry. Wis
tied the car at Clinton, Illinois, last
Thursday, and was very much pleased
with the results experienced.

In her teeth the racer squared away for
the open sea with the sloop Kameha,
meha close hauled and working to
windward of the big boat. By the time
the Myrtle boathouse was passed the
schooner had gained appreciably on the
smaller boat, and the wind, which in
the harbor was light on account of the
buildings, began to make the Hawaii
dance to the tune it was playing in her
rigging. 1t has been reported that 1t
was impossible to get the Hawaii s lee
rail under, but yesterday the report was
proven untrue, and the beautiful vessel
bent to the breeze like a thing of life.
There was no heaviness about her as in
former trials with her cruising sails,
and her performance shows that the
judgment of Captain Harris was good
and that the trimming of the ballast
was what was needed.
AYesterday the Kamehameha got her
medicine. The more she stayed with
the run the more it was seen that she
was outclassed. In leaving the harbor
the schooner took the regular course out

meha cut corners and tried to steal to

what the skipper of the big boat was
looking for, and he kept throwing his
boat up into the wind apparently wait
ing for the Kamehameha, but the Ha-
waii did not want t. wait, and kept
gaining all the time, until when oppo-

the Kamehameha by a long half mile.

ahead. This was done several times,

AT SIMPSON AUDITORIUM
Delivers First of Three Lectures on
Behalf of Socialist Party to an
Audience Numbering About
Fourteen Hundred

j. Stitt Wilson made the first of three
local speeches for the Socialist party
to about 400 persons at the Simpson
auditorium last night He will speak
at Blanchard hall at IL o'clock this
morning, and at the Simpson auditori-
UNI again this afternoon, on "Substi-
tutes for Social Righteousness" before
leaving for the east. Mr. Wilson said
last night that he postponed his meet
ings in England as soon as he heard of
the nomination of Debs, in order to
take part in the American campaign.
I'm the twelve years L have known
Eugene Debs have never found more
loving and more loVable man any
where" said Mr.. Wilson, land it is re-
markable how many persons who know
him testify to the same fact. Debs is a
man who really loves the humanity
which has gone down the centuries and
fallen among thieves, while so many
with power have passed by on the 9TH
err side. Never since the first days writ
ten into history have the toilers had
the product of their toll, and not until
Socialism appeared was a practical
remedy offered.
1--WE do not want paternalism. There
is now too much fatherhood, too little
of the motherhood of nature, and too
little genuine brotherhood"
Mr.. Wilson was frequently inter-
rupted by the enthusiasm of his audi
ence. He said he found a remarka BILE
interest in Socialism in England, and
Socialist leaders who kept in touch
with the worldwide movement claimed
their reports were to the same effect
throughout civilization. The attend
ance at his English meetings, he said,

single gathering, and hundreds had
