CALLS CONGRESS
BEST SINCE WAR
Taft Speaks Before Commercial Body
at Atanta-Says Reciprocity
VIII Win.

Atlanta, Cain a notable address
before the Southern Commercial con.
gress in this city President William
H. Taft pleaded with the young men
of the south to take up the political
issues of the day from broad and
liberal standpoint, but cautioned them
that all sectionalism and narrow par
lsanship should be eliminated
Come fully into our national COM
munion,' said the president, with the
patriotic purpose of stimulating the
progress of our civilization in every
right direction, maintaining cur coun-
try's prosperity and accommodating it's
wealth, but always in subordination
to higher ethical standards and to
the promotion Of righteousness and
justice"
The president reviewed briefly the
accomplishments of the Sixty-first
congress, declaring that in it's three
sessions just closed it had enacted
more helpful legislation than any con-
gress since the Civil war.
Mr.. Taft asserted that the greatest
accomplishm ent of the short session,
ended March 4, was the ratification
of the Japanese treaty. The greatest
disappointment, he said, was the fail
ure of congress to ratify the reciproc-
1ty agreement with Canada In this
connection he referred to his action
In calling an extra session of con-
gress to convene on April 4.
In the hope, perhaps, that tariff leg
lslatlon may be avoided at the extra
session, the president pledged him
self to furnish TO the Democratic
house at its regular meeting in De-
cember next report from the tariff
commission on schedule K Of the
Payne-Aldrich act-of the wool and
woolens schedule.
Among the other speakers were
John Hays Hammond, Bernard N.

MOUNT VESUVlUS AGAIN ACTIVE
Famous FunicuIar Railway Is Badly
DAMAGED

Famous Funicuiar Railway Is Badly
Damaged.
Naples, Italy.-Mount Vesuvius is
again active. Monday night severe
earth shock, accompanied by terrific
detonations, occurred.
Investigations showed that a great
landslide had dropped from the upper
part of the crater 1t is estimated that
it measured 1000 by $50 feet, and
when it fell it caused enormous clouds
of smoke.
The Funicular railway was badly
damaged. A party of tourists were
about to ascend by the railway when
the shock occurred
The Funicular railway has been en-
tirely put out of commission by previ-
Gus eruptions, but SO profitable has
the tourist travel been that the road
has always been rebuilt.
The road runs over lava beds it's en-
tire length, but was regarded as safe
until this new eruption.

GOOD BUSINESS MEN IN ROME
Book Publishers Turned Out Work
Quickly and With Ample Assur-
ance Of Profit

There were in Augustan Rome es.
tablished publishing houses which
not only turned out large numbers
OF books, but many editions of them,
and at an incredibly small price (says
Algernon Tassin ia the Bookman).
That their arrangements were BUSH
ness-lfke may be inferred from the
testimony of Horace. He relates
that when an author failed to please
the metropolis the publishers shipped
the entire edition of his works to the
provinces, and If he still failed to go
of as writer they made arrangements
to bring him back again and sell him
as paper to the pastry and spice
shops. One great firm in Rome had
over two thousand trained slave
copyists; and their work was swift
and cheap, for Martial writes that
they had ready an edition of a thou
sand copies of his "Epigrams" in Just
one hour to be sold at ten cents a
copy. The exceedingly large reading
pubic which all this indicates must
have been many years in growing,
and one may assume that Rome had
long been q city of readers Atticus,
the publisher of Cicero, had a great
many modern methods in the conduct
OF his business, and the fact that
Caesars Commentaries" were very
quickly dispatched to the outposts of
civilization shows that the machinery
OF distribution was also we'll organiz-
ed. Thus we may conclude that the
advertising and publicity department
was in good shape.
