WHERE THE SOUTH LOST.

New England was wise enough
to see that buying negroes TO do
poor work did not pay, and that
educating her own children TO do
good work did pay. The South
has fallen behind because it has
had the wrong end of both these
propositions. Thank God, how
ever, we are at last waking up
and are beginning to train our
own people, and we shall soon be
gin to give our Southern children
the same educational advantages
that the New England children
have had, and so have our agri-
cultural ard manufacturing de-
veloping such as will make us
worthy rivals Of New England
even in material prosperity.
just in this connection, more
over, | am reminded that while
New England has been far too
wise to allow her children to be
worked in cotton mills, or any 9th
err manufacturing enterprises.
thousands of our own white chill
dren have been stunted in body
and mind in order to make divi-
dends for New England capital in
vested in the South. In Massa-
chusetts no child under fourteen
is allowed to work in factory
under any circumstances what
ever; no child under, or between
fourteen and sixteen. unless able
to read and write.-and not only
to read and write, but to read and
write well enough to enter the
fourth grade and no child is al
lowed to do night work under any
circumstances. More than this,
no child can be employed by any
factory unless a sworn certificate
as to its age be given by its par
ents, and this certificate approved
as correct by the local school com
mittee or their agent, and kept on
file for inspection by truant Off
GERS whose duty it is to see that
all children who ought to be are
in school. Going further, the
manufacturer must keep posted,
a list of the names of all minors
employed by him and. the State
employs fourteen factory inspcc-
tors, a part Of whose duties it is
to see that these laws are enforc-
ed.
Massachusetts is far too wise
to sacrifice her future by grind
ing out the lives of little children,
however much the Yankee may b.
said to care for the dollar. 1t is
with shame that we confess that
the same can not be said of every
Southern State.-Clarence Poe. in

THE ROSE.CoLORED LIAR.

"Bless the rose-colored liar.'
SAYS one. "And to what tribe OF
the Ananiasians does he belongF'
we ask. The rosc-colored liar is
the most harmless Of the species.
He is the one who when speaking
of his town to strangers just touch
es up her unpublished patches with
a.color that makes her seem {.
thing artistic. If his home town
has baby enterprise that has not
vet stood alone, an old
one that seems tottering on the
verge Of a financial abyss, the
rose-colored liar does not roll them
the glamor of a successful shine,
If his town numbers two hundred
grouchy individuals, they are
hundred happy, eontented souls.
His home soil is the most produc-
tive this side of the Nile S green
valleys, her people are most thor
ough going, get7ahead-of-all set
that ever breathed. His home
get smooth spread OF
exquisite coloring that pleases the
eye and creates an Gag
er desire to know more.-Ruston

S. P. EXTENSION IS NEARING
COMPLETION.

Unless some unlocked for OBJ
stacle intervenes, the Southern
Pacific extension from Lafayette
to Baton Rouge will be completed
and in operation by Oct. l. An
nouncement of the date for open
ing of the branch was made yes
terday by W. NJ. Hobbs. general
superintendent of the Morgan,
Louisiana and Texas Railroad.
Work on the line has progressed
at a satisfactory rate although
great difficulties were encountered
in building through the swamps.
In places the swamp has proved
so deep and treacherous that doz-
ems Of piles have been actually
lost while being driven. Some
times a pile would sink out of
sight at the first blow from the
driver. and no amount of probing
could discover It's whereabouts.
BY dint of perseverance and the
use of an immense number of piles.
these difficulties have geen over
come and the roadbed has neared
!, stage of completion where no
further serious trouble is anticipat-
ID. The work is being rushed
With all possible dispatch. Ties
md rails are being laid close onto
he heels of the roadbed gang.
1t is estimated that the last rail |

WHY NEW ORLEANS SHOULD
BE RECOGNIZED.

The claims Of New Orleans for
recognition by Congress as the log
zeal point at which to celebrate
the completion and opening Of the
Panama Canal, with a great
Worlds Fair, are based upon so
numerous an array Of arguments
and facts. that it becomes diff
cult matter to select therefrom the
most important ones to which to
refer in brief article of this char
acter.
We people Of Louisiana take the
position that these great eXposl-
tons must, IN order to successful
ly accomplish their aims and OBJ
jects, not be merely celebratlve
or commemorative affairs. They
must be looked upon as education

MAN DEFEATS BIRDS FLYING

Amiens, France, Aug. 16.-The
first aerial race between the birds
of nature and Of man S production
took place in the course of the
great aerial cross country compe-
tition and was easily won by man.
A flock of forty-seven carrier pig
cons was released at Douay yes
terday at the same instant that
Leblanc in his Farman gi-plane
Leblanc in his Farman bi-plane
started from the mark on his fiji
ty-mile trip to Amiens.
The birds succeeded in reaching
Amiens six minutes after Leblanc.
Hubert Latham accomplished
practically the last lay in the cross
race. a distance Of about
sixty-eight miles, but in the re-
verse direction.

DAIRY pRoDuurs Az FoAD.

The products of the dairy are

The health Of our people de
ponds so much upon an adequate
supply Of pure dairy products that
even scarcity is always attended
by suffering and death.
Butter is sometimes referred TO
as luxury. This is a mistake.
Butter is not luxury but one OF
the necessities of life, and its com
position is such that nothing can
take its place and perform the
same functions. 1t is nature S
product compounded in the ma
tcrial organism and the process IS
in accordance with nature s law,
a law which man can initiate but
cannot understand. Man can
manufacture from various fats
and oils substitute for butter
butter but it cannot take the
hut it cannot take the place
of natures product because
man cannot understand the needs
of the human body as nature un-
derstands them.
The animal body is developed
best when nourished by foods
which have been little manipulate
ed by man and machinery. Dairy
products are, as a rule, consumed
nearly as nature produced them.
This is particularly true with milk
upon which the growing body
must depend. In the ease of but
ter only a small percentage of 9th

extracted from the milk. Man
only manipulates it in order to put
it in convenient shape for use. It
can still be termed a product Of
nature designed as only nature
can design for use as food by the
human body.

CANNED DOG PAW" TO BE
EXAMINED.

Washington, Aug. 1S.-Dr. A.
D. Melvin. Chief of the Bureau
of Animal Industry of the Depart
ment of Agriculture, who has
charge Of all the inspectors sta
toned in the packing houses of
the country, will be indignant but
not greatly astonished if the re-
port from Jackson, La, that a
merchant of that place had found
the paw of a yellow dog in a can
Of tongue. He will be indignant,
because if it is a dogs paw he
will know that somewhere in the
packing houses there is a low
lived employee willing to do such
a thing either as a "joke" or,
|thirsting for revenge, to place the
paw there thinking 20 get his en-
ployer into trouble.
No report has been received at
the Department of Agriculture.
DR.. Melvin expects a solution Of
the matter wholly unlike that ex-
pected by the Louisiana people
who found the paw and claws.
This is not the first time he has
had experience with so called
claws in animal and products,
leading inexperienced people to
believe that the packers at Chi
cago 60 out, lasso anything that
runs on four legs ami pack 1T nto
a can. Some time ago a Hoosier
found what he believed to b. claws
in some sausage. When the mat
ter had been sifted to the bottom
it was found that the claws were
papillae claw like things that help
animals of the bovine kind to send
their food toward the place where
it will do the most good These |
grow on the mucous mem
brane lining the animals mouth. |
Ia cases of careless trimming Of a
tongue some of the papillae are
left on the tongue. and do the aver
age consumer they look about
what the consumer imagines claws
would look like after being thor
Dughly goiled.
II. after DIR. McGee's report is
received here, it is found the
Jackson man really found paw.
DR.. Melvin will order a rigid in
resignation of the conditions in
he canning establishments sending 4
sut such stuff. A disgruntled |
employee could put in a can al
most anything that pleased his dis
ased fancy, because the meat in
pection force is not large enough
. watch each individual engaged
n canning establishment.
