The South the Best Place
After All.

If the boys of the South realize
the chances that are at hand for
them, and that work will get any,
thing they can reasonably want,
the experiences of other sections
Of the country show them that the
world is at their bidding.
1t is not necessary to 60 to Iowa
or Pennsylvania or California for
an example. In ten years some
of the South has doubled it's agri-
cultural yield. Texas and Geor-
gia have grown to be among the
foremost farming states OF the
United States. Tho boys of the
south are doing things, you nee,
and they arc only discovering
what . boy on the farm can do if
he will.
One thing tho boy Of the south
needs to learn, and that is the va
lue of time. He must get into
his head that the boy in the army
who steps sixty times a minute
goes twice as far in an hour as the
shambling negro who takes thirty
stsps a minute. Activity counts
for as much as anything else. Ac,
tivity 10 what makes progress. -

The system of nominating can
didates by conventions grew up,
but was not adopted for nearly a
half century after the formation of
the government. When it was &C
cepted generally it was amidst
conditions that do not exist now.
There were then no big cities with
their bosses and Organization" to
send their agents to select men for
the people to vote for. In late
years the representative idea in
the convention has been lost and
the delegates represent not the
people but the party organization
or some local boss. The system
has become thoroughly discredi-
ted, and the people all over the
land have determined to abolish it
utterly. The politicians may re-
tard the great reform of direct no.
mutations, but they can only re-
tard it. The contention that the
body Of the people are not compe-
tent to select their own candidates
10 not sound. If it is sound, then
the theory of popular government
is unsound and a failure. = Balti-

What Makes Business.
Lafayette Advertiser.

There is only one thing that
makes business and keeps bust
ness going and that is the circula-
ton of money. No matter how
many rich people there may be in
a town, no matter how much mo-
ney in the banks, there will be no
business unless money is spent
and put into circulation. With
out business there will, of course,
be no growth, no employment and
general hard times. The proper
thing then to do is to exert every
effort to have money put into cir
culation, not alone for the sake of
building the town up, but also to
give employment to the people of
a community.
There are two principal ways by
which money is put into circula-
ton. One is through the sale of
the harvests and the other through
the operation of factories.
As matter of fact the great
majority Of towns depend on the
money received from produce of
the fields to make business. That
is the reason the great majority of
towns are small and dead half of
the year, for depending on the
harvests they soon send way all
the money they receive to tho
manufacturing csnters.
Wherever there sre industries
that have monthly payrolls, bust
ness continues of fairly oven
volume, for tho money that is be-
ing sent away to manufacturers is
continually being replaced, which
is not the case where the town de.
ponds on agriculture. In the lat.
ter case the money comes once
year, when it lie sent off in month
or two there is no more to take its
place.
But the town that wants a good
business all the year must deter
mine to keep every dollar at home
in circulation that can be kept.
That means to making at home
everything that can be made that
they use out of the things they
produce, and then the loyal buy
ing at home and patronizing of
homo industries. In other words
the entire community must make
il Q business to manufacture all
they can and never send money
The weekly messenger. [volume] (St. Martinsville [i.e. St. Martinville] La.) 1886-1948, 1911-10-28

away from home when it can be
avoided.
As every dollar has such a mar
velous activity and capable of
completing so many transactions,
the keeping at home of the large
bulk of money brought in by the
crops every year, and this money
bulk added to every year would.
give a community a tremendous
growth and perfectly astonishing
business.
Keeping money at home, though,
can only be effected through ssta-
blishing small industries to manu.
facture what tho community uses
out of it's products and will hard
ly be made unless there is a citi-
zen's organization to investigate
and promote and push to establish
ment these industries. For which
reason every town that has smbi-
ton to grow and prosper must
have a progressive league with
push and vim aud hustle in its
make up.
