CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Nov. 20
H. E. Roseberry, a former preacher of

WHAT INDUSTRIAL

trial interests of the South were giver
prominence at tonight's session Of the
National Society for the Promotion OF
Industrial Education
G. Gunby Jordan, of Columbus, Ca,
a manufacturer and President of the
Board of Education of Columbus, said
in plea for broad policy of indus
trial education:
"The past twelve months have
brought home to every industry in our
land the need for a reliable export
trade; the need for American goods
which shall offer the stability of those
of Germany, the taste and variety of
those of France, the cheapness of our
English competitors.
Now is the psychological moment
to impress upon our people the great
benefits which technical and indus
trial training alone can give us in
this worlds contest. OF our total
bread-winners only 4 per cent are in
the professions and in the public serv-
ice-the other sc epr cent would be
benefited by such an edu- !
cation.
Investigation shows" said Mr.. Jor-
dan, that SO per cent OF the foremen
and overseers in manufacturing plants
in New York State were educated in
Europe"

LAYMEN STRONG
FOR STATEWIDE
THE WESLEYAN BROTHERHOOD
IN SESSION At NASHVILLE
SOUNDS CLARION CALL
HIGH P AISE FOR OUR MARTYR
Attorney General MeCarn Severe In
His DenuneiatioR Of the Murder
of Mr.. carmaek.

NASHVILLE. Tenn, Nov. 21.-At a
largely attended meeting Of the Yves.
ley Brotherhood of the Tennessee
Conference of the Methodist church,
held al NcKendree church yesterday,
a clarion call was sounded for i'm
mediate and powerful action on the
part of the churches looking to the
passage of a statewide prohibition
bill by the next general assembly.
The following resolutions were unan-
imously adopted:
Resolved, That we are in favor Of
statewide prohibition.
Resolved, further, That we call
upon our entire church to unite at
once in the great battle for righteous
ness in which we are now engaged,
and especially in the passage Of
statewide prohibition bill at the COM
ing session of the general assembly.
To this end we designate the second
Sunday in December as a special day
of prayer for the cause, and request
that special services be held on that
day at which a clarion call shall go
forth from our pulpits to the end that
our people be aroused to energetic
action"
Hon. jeff McCarn was present anC
his speech on statewide prohibition
was inspiring and almost startling in
its brilliancy Among other things
General McCarn said:
I'VE can not afford to let this op-
portunity go to pass a statewide law
1t would be nothing short Of an en-
dorsement of the murder Of Senator
Carmack. NY mind can scarcely con-
ceive the awfulness of such a rebuke
to us. The tragedy that is so fresh ,
in our minds tonight has broken a
heart in every home in Tennessee.
There is not an hour since I first
heard the awful news but that have
thought of it, / do not begin to think
of it when I wake up, for it is with
me even in sleep 1t was a sacrifice
that is absolutely irreparable. Not
another man could have meant so
much to Tennessee as the murdered
Carmack
1T would take more than one shot
to slay the patriotism, the brilliancy,
the integrity and the bravery that
we're bound up in him. The state Of
Tennessee is poorer since he left 1t;
the homes of Tennessee are poorer
md the boys of Tennessee are poorer
'ince he went away.
Now is the time of all times when
We can talk 1t is the time when the

SOME GRoWLs ABOUT BUSINESS

Thus far nobody has cornered the market on Knowledge. You can learn something every day, and no one will charge you for it. Nobody knows the value of truth telling in business so well as the man who has been cheated by a liar.
 A crook is crook, whether his picture is in the rogues' gallery or blazened on a gilt sign.
 There is a little four-letter word which enriches the English lan- guage immeasuiably, and will also enrich you if you will just let its real meaning soak in-Tact. If you haven't any yourself, hire some vuick.
 If you are nursing private grudge, wean it.
 The geniality that is insincere has a mildewed smell, and is not worth the effort.
 The fundamental law in business IS that a man shall attend to his own business.
 You can find Pleaty of people to tell you how to run your business, but you won't be satisfied with the result.
 If you must speak i'll of you, neighbor, do t where only mean man will hear you-that is, when nobody is around but yourself,

Petersburg is a glowing example of what may be accomplished by concerted action on the part of the citizens of town. Envy among the business men of that town is an unknown quantity. Every in- dustry is encouraged by patronage, as all the citizens realize that what is direct benefit to one is an in- direct benefit to everyone in the entire community. And that is the very reason why Petersburg has almost doubled in population, and improved so wonderfully in appearance during the past year.

Japan is taking timely steps to heal the sore places crested in the American nina by her bombast;c yearners after war that was one of the conspicuous results of her late entanglement with Russia, Every word that comes from the island kingdom these days is fraught with friendliness for the United States, and the old sense of uneasipess that was so apparent on both sides of the Pacific year or so ago has subsided to point where each land is looking gladly and willing ly to the other for good will and mutual understanding. It is an excellent change of sentiment. The two countries are bound to have much in common through the years to come, commercially and automatically, and if a happy predicate can be established for the interchange of these large and com manding affairs, it were will to lay it now and in such fashion that its disruption shall be difficult and undesired by the peoples at inter est. Every friendly national tie is another barrier against the sense less commercial wars that spring all too quickly and disastrously in these days of bargain-counter poli- tics and monetary rule.

It is a well known fact that the greater number of industries that a town has, the more prosperous is that town, and the higher are the values of property. It must also be true that the fewer the indus. tries in a town, the lower property values are bound to be. Every in- dustry that brings money, however little, into the town, helps to keep up property values. If any indus try is driven out of town by lack of support, those who refuse their encouragement of that industry are helping to cut down the value of property. If ever you have the misfortune to own property in any town where an industry is discour- aged, bear in mind that those who discourage it are enemies to your interests. And if this is true, you are not under obligations to trade or do business with them. You would act with better judgment to trade with those who reoiprocate by standing by the industries that are helping you.

From the subscriptions sent to this paper from people outside of Alaska, over four hundred dollars are annually brought into Wran- gell, and ninety dollars out of each hundred are spent here. Besides this, the paper has been the means of bringing many another dollar to town through big game hunters, The business of this office has ne- cessitated considerable letter writ ing, and many letters have been received by the office. This has helped the postoflice business by the amount of cancellation. Do these small items help any? We think so. Is there any other one business in the town that brings into the town each year $4O0 from outside of Alaska? Some will say "yes, the fish and furs." We ad init that either of these industries brings in vastly more, but both of these industries are supplied by nature. When one considers the clear gain to the community, the outside money brought to the terri tory by the newspaper is not to be sneezed at.

GOOD TIMES AHEAD

In the spring of 1907, the Jours nal of accountancy published the views of several we'll known ac- countants with regard to the busi- ness outlook, and at the same time expressed editorially the opinion that, although 2 period of quietude and liquidation was to be expected, a panic was by no means inevita- ble. The articles by accountants were in general agreement as to the soundness of fundamental busi- ness conditions.
 The panic came in October, and outwardly, i. e., in its superficial phenomena, it was the severest and most exciting this country ever suffered. A year has elapsed, and it is now possible to look the ground over thoroughly, and decide whe- ther or not that panic was ineyita- ble Did it mean that business conditions in the United States were rotten? Will it take three or four years to clear away the debris from the panic?
 We believe the accountants were right when they expressed faith in the sovndness of American busi- ness. We all knew then that en- terprise had made heavy inroads on the worlds supply of loanable . capital. The fact was evidenced by the high rates of interest which prevailed in Europe and the U. s. throug bout 1906 and the spring of 1907, and by the decline of stock market prices due to the fact that inuesting had emptied their purses, and to the further fact that specu- lators could get no advance from banks. The railroads were pros porous, but they could not get the capital imperatively needed for equipment and extensions, and were besieging the money market with short term notes at high rates of interest.
 All these things were known early in 1907, and nothing more is known now except that the banks of the United States had a weaker hold upon popular confidence than was commonly believed. The fail ure of the Knickerbocker Trust Co.,, the publication of rumors about other financial institutions in New York City, the reluctance of New York banks to give prompt help where it was needed, the issue of clearing house certificates, the suspension of cash payments-all these events came with dazzling audiences and the panic was uni versal. For three months tue busi- uess oi the country was in a state bordering on asphyxiation, depriv- ed of the breath of life, money and credit.
 Now we look around in vain for the wrecks which one would natur. ally expect to see as the result of such 8 conyulsion and complete breakdown of our credit machinery. The list of failures is larger than in 1906, but is small when com pared with the list that followed 1898, especially when we bear in mind lhat the business of the eaun- try has more tlan doubled ia the last fifteen years, A few weak railroad a., industrial corpora tions have defaulted on interest, but the defaults were expected and could not have been averted except by continuance of top-notch prosperity. A few banks have
