egation of the Chicago Association of
Commerce ever received a more cor
dial welcome than the one that is
now touring the Lone Star State We
are glad that we came and we feel
that the tour will be most successful
and that great mutual advantage
both TO Texas and Chicago will re-
sur,
We have not come here to capture
the trade of Texas, but to get ac
quainted, and we have found that as
Chicago is a representative American
city, Texas is a representative Amer
lean state. Chicago and Texas trans
act business in a large way with this
other and We hope that the reciprocal
trade which has become SO import
ant factor in the business life OF
| both communities, win continue to
grow
But it is not the trade that natur-
| ally belongs to the jobbers and
wholesalers of Texas that we are
seeking, but rather the business for

of their own distributing centers and
outside of their own state to secure,
and which Chicago, with it's superla-
tive facilities is better able to supply
than any other city.
On the. other hand Chicago is a
great distributing center for the sur
plus products of Texas. We have
found also that some of the largest
enterprises in Texas cities are the re-
suit of the Investment of capital from
Chicago. For every dollar that goes
out of Texas to Chicago, two or three
or five dollars will return from Chi
cago to Texas. And so | say that the
results of a closer acquaintance can
not help but be most highly benefit
cial both to Texas and Chicago.

Co.-The Chicago delegation came
| to Texas to see, to study and to be in

ests are one with ours, and there can
be no doubt in the minds of Chica-
goans as | believe there is no dou ot
in the minds of Texans that the large
volume of business now being trans
acted between these two communi-
ties is destined to grow rapidly.
Chicago is a great clearing house
for the merchantable products of the
west and as such it is of great inn
portance to Texas. On the other hand
Chicago is acquiring new importance
as a manufacturing center and for
the output of its factories Texas Of

large reciprocal trade, and | believe
that such visits as that upon which
we are engaged will do much TOWARD

Frederick Budinger, Keith Bros. &


Co.-Every member Of the delega-
ton of the Chicago Association oil
Commerce has found the trip through
the Lone Star state to be continu-
Gus round of pleasure and instruc-
ton. 1t has surprised many of us to
find how great the present CONNER
cial and industrial institutions OF
Texas really are Much as we have
heard and much as we have studied
conditions in this state in preparing
for this trip. the realities have in
every instance exceeded our expecta-
ton. Truth has brought home more
impressively every day that the BUSH
ness institutions of this great section
and those of Chicago which we are
here to represent, should be bound
more closely together in intimate
trade relations. Chicago needs many
of the products of Texas and it needs
the great opportunities which Texas
affords for the investment OF the
money handled by it's banks. Texas
already is an important customer or
Chicago and there are many lines
along which the trade which it now
gives to the great central market may
be increased to advantage.

Prof. Nathaniel Butier-A great
deal of Importance naturally Is plac-
ed on material development IN
trip like this, but we can never lose
sight of the fact that it is progress
along lines which are educational
and personal. rather than merely
commercial, which is of most endur-
ing benefit to any community. COM
mercial development is the founda-
ton upon which educational achieve
ments must be based and CONNER
cially Texas presents an inspiring eX-
ample But | am even more greatly
impressed with the great progress
that Texas has made and is making
for the education of her citizenship.
The high schools in the larger Texas
cities are entirely equal to those OF
similar cities east, west and north,
and at least three of your higher in
stitutions, including the State Uni
versity, are on a par with many col
legiate institutions of the country.

where, is big and broad and splend-
did like the state itself. This is one
of the pleasant membranes that
we will take back with us, One thing
that has impressed me deeply in the
cities we have visited, has been the
spirit of fellowship and cooperation
among business men working To-
gether for the good of the commun-
ity and their state. This working TO-
gether explains in great measure
the gigantic strides Texas has made,
is making. and is sure to keep on
making. This spirit will make Texas
all that its business want it to be.

Come Back.

BY the Bristol lierald.Couricr
our attention is called to the
fact that 1.-TWO Of the biggest
and best of Southwest Virgin
las weekly newspapers" have
ceased publication. AT least. Tor
a time They are the Abingdon
Nirginiau and the Wise News.
The cause Of these suspen-
sioms was AN Indifference on the
part of the patrons To the
financial needs OF The two
newspapers The old, old story
to those of us who have fought
to keep a country weekly going.
Both of these papers had large
calculations. but the list of
delinquent subscribers was too
great, In order to collect what
is due them, the proprictors OF
papers have been forced to stop
publication Little respect is
due amy man who would refuse
TO pay up in such circum-
stances. Yet there will be some.
as there are and have been in
the case OF every county news
paper that ever was printed,
who will resent being asked to
pay up-sone who regard
newspaper as public charity
some who take it as almost
personal insult that they should
be asked TO pay a just and small
debt.
II is our hope that the Ahing.
don Nirgininn and the News
will speedily recoIp and appear
again in the newspaper field
They have been excellent papers
and we shall miss them. Many
of these county papers. taking
things into consideration, are
much more readable. much
more entertaining, much more
profitable than many a city
paper, with its great resources
and broad field. Richmond

"PEACEFUl MAN OF THE EAST"
Togo His Name. Given Luncheon at
New York by the Japan and the
Peace Societies.

THE relationship between the United
States and Japan must ever be one of
peace and neighborly goodwill" AS
Admiral Count Togo. speaking in his ma
tive tongue, uttered that sentiment at
the luncheon given Jointly at New York
by the Japan society and the Peace So
ciety of New York. only the Japanese
present understood and applauded Wig
orously but when Comdr Taniguehi, his
aid, repeated the words in English, all
outburst of applause arose spontaneously
from the hundreds of guests present 1t
was the first expression here by the great
fighting man of the East on the subject
of international relationships. my
same, Heihachiro Togo, possesses a par
tcular significance" he continued, as he
gazed upon a brilliantly decorated din

dressed men and women, American and
Japanese, side by side. "Heihaehiro sig

Jeffreys Talks on
Evils of Smoking.

James J. Jeffreys, the railroad man
OF Washington, D. c., gave a very IN
teresting lecture at the Penney Memo
rial church Thursday evening on the
evils of cigarette smoking and the use
OF tobacco and liquors in general. A
fair-sized crowd was present, and ev-
erybody seemed to appreciate the val
lie of the work which the Anti-Cigar-
cite League is trying TO do to prohibit
the use of cigarettes among the young
people of the United states.
Mr.. Jeffreys spoke mainly of the i'll
effects which tobacco has on young
boys under the age of q, saying that
if boy did not use tobacco until he
was of that age he would not be likely
to take up the habit at this stage of
his life. He even went so far as to say
that tobacco did more harm to a boy
than whiskey, because it devourcd the
nerves and tissues of the body much
more rapidly then the w'hiskey. He said
that the use of cigarettes created the
desire for stimulants OF some sort, and
this started some young men TO using
intoxicants.
In his speech, Mr.. Jeffreys brought
out the fact that no young man or boy.
who had any desire to be & successful
athlete should use tobacco in any form
because it had very bad effect upon
the lungs.
Mr.. Jeffreys gave some good advice
70 the parents, who were present,
about keeping their children off the
streets in the evenings. saying that
this was one of the greatest causes OF
young children picking up the habit of
smoking cigarettes as young boys can
I've easily Influenced by older compan-
ions.
The lecture was beautifully illustrat-
cd by stereopticon slides. These pic
lures showed reproductions of the vital
organs of a man in the habit of using
tobacco and those of man who never
used the weed.
Mr.. Jeffreys also gave an interesting
lecture during the day to the scholars
of the Cony High. Smith and Williams
schools on the harm done by the use
of tobacco in general. The scholars
seemed very much interested in the
able manner in which Mr.. Jeffreys
pointed out to them the evils Of the use
OF tobacco
