PRES. FINLEY ON
CONSERVATION
WHAT HEAD OF THE COUTHERN
RAILWAY SAYS ON THIS I'M
PoRTANT SUBJECT.
Extracts From His Address, "The In
terest of the Railways of the South
in Conservation" Which He Deliv-
cred at St. Paul.

Atlanta, Ga, Oct. S.-In view OF the
general interest through the south in
the question of conservation and es-
pecially on account of the assembling
of the Southern Conservation con-
gress in this city today, the opinion
OF President w. W. Finley, of the
Southern Railway company, on this
subject, as expressed in an address
on The Interest of the Railways of
the South in Conservation" deliver
ed at the second national conserva-
ton congress held in St. Paul, Mimi,
Sept. 7, will doubtless be read with
unusual interest.
Laying down the broad principle
that the railways of the south and
those of tle people of the south in
conservation are identical, Mr. Finley
defined the type of conservation most
needed in the south as mot the mar
row idea of the withdrawal from the
present use of some part of these
resources, hut the wise use of these
resources" Taking soil conservation
as one of the most vital questions be-
fore the southern people today, Mr..
Finley gave figures from experiments
conducted by the American and for
eign governments, showing that
where proper methods are used pro-
ductivity of soil increases with its
use, and in this connection Mr. Fin
ley urged more attention on the part
of the people of the south to crop ro-
tation, proper fertilization, and live
stock raising as the surest means to
accomplish this much desired result.
Recognizing that forest and stream
conservation are interdependent, Mr..
Finley said that too much should not
be expected of the national govern,
ment, and suggested the advisability
of changes in the tax laws by state
legislatures looking to a tax system
that would differentiate between tim
Ter lands so managed as to insure the
perpetuation of a great natural re-
source and those so managed as to
hasten it's exhaustion.
AS respects timber and all other
resources said Mr. Finley, Il am
convinced that the type of conserva-
tion that should be adopted in the
south is not the withdrawal of
these resources from Use, but the
elimination of waste as far as possi-
BILE, and their wise use as the basis
of a diversified industrial develop
ment that will carry them through all
the processes of manufacture and pre-
pare them for the final consumer.

ED YEsTERDAY-HE is NOW
IN CITY HOSPITAL.

ton, as the result of very painful
and serious accident, which occurred
yesterday morning while he was at
mOrk in the mills.

he was terribly burned. He was i'm
mediately brought to the ltty and

LII. BURROUGHS
IS BADLY BURNED
PARTY OF WELL-kNOWN YOUNG
p; MEN HAD A CLOSE CALL
ia EARLY THIS MORNING.
Starting on a Pleasure Trip, Gasoline
i Explosion Destroyed Their Launch.
:, Causing Them to Jump Overheard.
: Extent of Injuries Not Known.

Starting out on a Sunday pleasure
trip shortly after o'clock this morn
ing, party of several well known
young men narrowly escaped death
as the result of an explosion of gaso-
line. AS result of the explosion
one of the members of the party,
Leighton Burroughs, was seriously
burned, while the launch which the
party was to make the trip on, was
burned to the waters edge.
The party had arranged to leave
the city at 8 o'clock. At that hour
they left the city wharf in small
batteau for the launch, which was
anchored across the river. Those in
the batteau were Leighton Burroughs
Hugh Burford and S. w. Baker.
When the launch was reached Mr..
Burroughs was the first to enter the
launch. He struck a mtach to light
a lantern and Immediately terrific
explosion occurred. Mr.. Burroughs
rushed from the boat with his cloth
ing on fire, his arms and face badly
burned, and realizing his danger, at
once jumped overheard. Other men,
bers of the party, who had not left
the batteau, jumped in quickly and
rescued the injured member of the
party
The launch was soon entirely en-
veloped by the flames and burned to
the waters edge. The members of
the party brought Mr.. Burroughs
across the river in the batteau and
medical aid was at once summoned.
It is not known how seriously Mr..
Burroughs was burned or whether or
not any of the other members of the
party were injured. The News
learned of the accident just at its
press hour and consequently did not
have time to secure full details.
Mr.. Burroughs is one of the best
known and most popular young men
in the city and his many friends will
indulge the hope that his injuries are
not serious.

POOR ROADS IS
THE REAL CAUSE
THAT is WHY AUTOiSTS ARE
NOT COMING TO BRUNSWICK
EN- ROUTE TO SAVANNAH,
y. T. Dent, of Hofwyl, Writes an In
teresting Letter to The News,
paired if We Want Auto Parties.

Editor Brunswick News: | noticed
your article about automobiles from
Jacksonville taking the cutoff from
about Brobston, reducing the route
to Savannah, their objective point,
by some 16 miles.
This was to be apprehended so soon
as it dawned upon the autoists, that
if they were bound to face a wretch
ed stretch of sand and slush, mis-
named an auto road, via Brunswick
and of seven miles in length, it would
be good policy to accept the equally
wretched road from Evelyn to Ster-
ling (the same seven miles, and on
to the Jacksonville road, and save 16
miles. 81.
Glynn county, after building a good
road from the highland to the rlver,
and heralding good auto road via
Brunswick to Jacksonville, did the os-
trich act, inserting her head in the
sand, and apparently assuming that
in some occult way, that stretch of
seven miles of sand and slush would
evolve into an auto road.
The auto parties, while being hos
pitably entertained in Brunswick,
naturally said as pleasant things as
possible, in the presence of their
hosts, and there was no mind-reading
to mar the occasions. What they
said and thought in the obsence of
their hosts, is happily unknown in
Brunswick
What they did, however, is patent!
Brunswick is eliminated from the
round-the-State route, and the query
is filtering through the minds of the
aGtoists, as to why they should go out
of their way " 16 miles on their
way south and north, unless a decent
roadway is offered.
!. How Glynn county is going to en-
join these sportsmen from taking the
Evelyn-Sterling route, except by fell
ing trees, or pulling down causeways,
| am at loss to see.
When the G., c. e P. railroad cross
es the river-if it crosses-it will
follow the embankment built by the
county to the highland, so the amount
expended on this will be all to the
good, and not lost; but if Brunswick
expects automobiles to come there
on their way north and south, the
road from Belle Point to the river
will have to be made fit. Yours truly,
J. T. DENT.

Atlanta, Oct 8.-"Brer Teddy Bear

observance of Uncle Remus" day IN
Atlanta. When he spoke tonight at
the auditorium, paying tribute to the
memory of the late Joel Chandler
Harris, he was greeted by one OF
audiences ever presented at lee

other sections of the country, united
in a common love for the memory OF

to Atlanta today to take part in the
movement which had for it's purpose
the raising of a fund for the pur
chase of the home of Uncle Remu'
in West End as a permanent memo
rial to the author.
Col Roosevelt and Joel Chandler
Harris entertained a high regard
for each other and many were the
appreciative letters that passed be-
tween them. Quiet, retiring and al
most bashful, Uncle Remus' seem
ed to find in the strenuous states
man the complement of his own ma
ture, while Teddy" was always eager
to go far out of his way to meet the
Georgia author. The two men never
missed an opportunity for a meeting,
and they always parted regretfuliy
When Uncle Remus" passed away
he had no more sincere mourner than
Col. Roosevelt, and the latter, in lis

from the heart.

MoNARcHicAL PARTY IN PoRTU-
GAL is NOW GENERALLY
REGARDED AS DEAD
Theopnile Bnaga, the New Provision
al President, Declares That the Re-
publican Form of Government Will
Continue in Force.

Lisbon, Oct. 8.-Quiet continues an
reign here, and thus far there is nc
sign of a reaction in favor of the Did
regime.
The monarchical party is generally
regarded as dead, especially since the
radicals have joined the republicans.
Only three monarchical leaders, 1t
is said, took any active part in at
tempting to suppress the revolution
ary movement, and the seven papers
which represented the entire mon
archical press have been discontin-
ued.
1t has not yet been indicated what
action the new government will take
against the opposition leaders, and
the date for reassembling the nation
al assembly has not been fixed.

Admiral Bells, who committed sui
eide on his flagship shortly after the
uprising began in the belief that the
revolution had not been success tui,
has taken the place in the popular
mind with DR.. Bombarda, the mar
tyr of the revolution" whose assas-
sination led up to the final outbreak.
Communication Established.

cation with Lisbon was re-establlsneu

given official notice that it will at
once take steps to facilitate the trans
mission of messages from members OF
the foreign diplomatic corps to their
government.
Awaken Confidence.
The Republican MINISTRY has eX-
pressed a desire to do it's utmost 10
awaken confidence among foreign
governments, and Theophile Braga,
provisional president, is quoted in the
Martin as emphasizing what he calls
the philosophical source of the rev
olution," He says the men who spread
the doctrine of republicanism were
professors, mathematicians, writer's,
and other men of learning. The re-
suit. he thinks. was first of all VIC
tory for education and an effort tc re
store the Portuguese people to the L.
tellectual rank which has been -ost
for long time.
