READY FOR BERMUDA RACE.
Motor Boats Will Contest for Bermuda
Challenge Cup and $1,000 in Cash.

New York, Sept. Sunless some
thing unforeseen intervenes TO again
prevent the start, the craft entered in
the annual motor boat race to Ber-
muda will get away at 1 o'clock to-
morrow afternoon. The distance is
seven hundred miles and the course
over the gulf stream is a difficult one
for such small boats to undertake. The
winner will receive the Bermuda
Challenge Cup and $1,000 in cash do
mated by James Gordon Bennett pro-
prietor of the New York Herald.
The race was originally scheduled
to start June II, but at the request of
several yachtsmen who were unpre-
pared at that time, postponement
was agreed upon. The start will be
from Huntington Bay, and the affair
will be under the joint auspices Of the
Motor Boat Club of America and the
Royal Bermuda Yacht Club.

The two most prominent candidates
for president of Mexico, Reyes and
Madero, have been mobbed and stoned,
the one in the capital city, the other
in the principal seaport If Taft in
Washington City and Woodrow Will

such indignities the world would stand
aghast, yet nobody is much surprised
at these incidents in Mexico. There is
vast difference between civilization

The employees of the Hartman lines
wisely decided not to strike because
the management refused to recognize
their federation. A strike can not be
successful unless it is sustained by
public opinion, and the public is not
yet sufficiently well informed as to be
able to judge of the merits of their
contentious. If the employees have a
good case and will explain it to the
public they will get justice sooner
than by strike.

Ollie James of Kentucky stated a

Good Logic in This.

1t has always been very popular
idea for newspapers to jump on. mail
order houses, especially when news is
a little scarce. We plead guilty to this
sort of practice, but at the same time
we have often felt that we ought to
take rap at the home merchant who
frequently sends away for articles he
also should get at home. 1t is not gen.
orally known, but it is fact never
theless, that good many are guilty.
AS an example, one merchant of Nav
asota patronized Sears, Roebuck & Co.
when he needed vehicle to deliver
goods in-perhaps to vehicle dealers
of Navasota. This thing of sending
away from home for those things one
can get any way reasonable from the
home dealer is all wrong. There can
be no argument in favor of it, We are
simply great big family and of neces-
sity are forced to help one another

THE RURAL SOUTH
GROWING WHITTIER

The fear has been often expressed
that the farming sections Of the South
are coming increasingly into the con.
troll of negro population. 1.-The white
people are moving to the towns and
leaving the country to colored farmers
and tenants is cry that has been
heard in some quarters.
II For these reasons We have been
looking forward with the keenest in
terest to the announcement of the cen
sus figures as to the relative increase
of white and colored population in the
South during the last decade. The
first peep at what these figures are
going to show was furnished by Mr..
Lewis w. Parker in his commence
ment address at the South Carolina
state university few days ago In
the course of this address Mr.. Parker
gave the following figures as having
been furnished Mr.. Theodore II. Price
by the director of the census. These
are advance figures, and while final
computations may change them slight
ly, they may be accepted as in every
respect substantially and approximate
ly correct We quote from Mr.. Parker:
Per cent Increase in population liv-
ing in places of over 2500 inhabitants,
and in country districts, respectively,
from 1890 to 1900, and from 1900 to
1910, in nine cotton states;

dlhcl Sdlu.
1T will b. noted that the white
population in communities of over
$500 in population increased in per-
centage between 1900 and 1910, 1876
per cent as against 27.6 per cent in
1890 to 1900. During such period the
negro population in these communities
increased 30.5 per cent, as against an
increase of the preceding period of
1873 per cent. On the other hand, the
white population increased in the coun.
try districts, 1900 to 1910, almost iden-
tically the percentage as from 1890 to
1900; whereas the negro population
shows much lower percentage of in
crease, as the increase in the country
districts in the latter period is only
S.3 per cent, as against 17,5 per cent
in the earlier period"
Being very much interested in these
figures We sent them to the director
of the census for confirmation as to
their correctness, and also to ascer
tain what mine cotton states" are re-
ferred to. From him we learn that the
nine states included in this prelim-
mary estimate given Mr.. Price were
North Carolina, South Carolina Geor-
gia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Ar
kansas, Louisiana and Tennessee. The
acting director also writes us:
AS you will note, the increase is
figured on the basis of the urban and
rural population as constituted in 1890.
whereas it should properly be based
on the areas of urban and rural terri
tory as now constituted, which figures,
however, are not at present available
except in the case of the increase in
the negro population of the rural dis
tricts of the states in question from
1900 to 1910, which amounts to 6S per
cent"
In any case, the figures indicate one
thing unmistably:
The rural South is rapidly growing
whittier
AS for that matter, the figures also
indicate Enthusiastically that the whole
South is growing whittier If we recall
that the country places in 1890 en-
braced over 80 per cent of the popula-
ton of these nine states, and that the
small negro rural increase of S.5 per
cent applies to four times as great a
body of population as the negro's
larger urban increase of 30.5 per cent,
another fact becomes apparent:
The white population of the whole
South is increasing almost exactly
twice as fast as the negro population
probably more than twice as fast.
And We are frank to say that we
heartily rejoice that this is true. We
have no i'll will toward the negro. We
certainly have no desire to keep him

The bottom factor in the healthy
growth and maintenance of rural life
is the improved country road.

not only exist between them mutual

all practical ways to help in upbuild-

Edward N. Miller, who has been in

Park, says he has discovered Union
Pacific engineers at work there.
This is taken as indicating that the
railroad intends building up Poudre
canon into North park over Rabbit
Ear pass, down to Steamboat Springs
and thence directly west to Salt LAX
Since last May he says Union Pa
cific surveyors have been at work
in the park. The survey runs south
of Green mountain, past Chambers
lake, and ia to pierce the Medicine
Bow range with 3.800-foot tunnel
to the Laramie river valley at the
head of the Canadian valley, at an al
titude of9 900 feet. The tunnel will
be north of Clark's peak and fifteen
miles north of Cameron pass.
1t will let the railroad into one
of the biggest coal fields in the
United States. The tunnel enters the
mountain Just above high line ditch
and the line runs down the Canadi-
an river short distance and cuts
directly across the Park eight miles
south of Walden and four miles norh
of Rand.
II this road is built across the park
and into Salt Lake 1t means that
Fort Collins will ultimately be a d.
vision point on the line.
The Laramie, Hahns Peak and Pa
cific is building from Laramie to Coal
mont in the southwestern part OF
the park. The rails are laid as far
as Clark's ranch, eight miles north OF
Cowdrey, and cars will be running
into Cowdrey September l and to
Walden October list. This line will
connect with the Union Pacific
south of Walden and four miles mort
