The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1911-04-06

Papers are being prepared and with |
in the next two weeks the charter of
The Mississippi Colonization Associa-
tion with capital of $3.50, 100000, PAID |
UP, will be filed at Jackson-and that
means the crystalization of the great |
est colonization and development
proposition ever attempted in the
South.
The problem of South Mississippi
has been the settlement of the cut-over
pine lands, three million acres of
which today await only the hand of
the industrious agriculturist to pour
forth rich reward, and that three
million acres is being increased each
year by half hundred thousand other
acres as the timber is cut away to sup
ply the maws of the greedy saw mills
of the southern section of this great
commonwealth.
Solves Great Problem.
! Every thoughtful resident of the
state has recognized this colonization
problem as the most difficult one, and
leading business and professional men
of this and other states have sought
its solution; but no solution that ap-
,peared possible and practical had been
advanced until the gentlemen who are
back of the Mississippi Colonization
Association presented their PROPOSE
tioa. That this proposition has-met with
the hearty endorsement and co-opera'
ton of some one hundred and fifty
owners of large bodies Of cut-over
lands in South Mississippi, is proof
positive not only of its merit, but OF
its ultimate success, and The News,
after a careful investigation OF the
proposition and the results already Sc
cured. can say unhesitatingly that the
breakers and the danger spots are all
behind, and that within the next six
months the eyes of the Nation Will be
turned toward South Mississippi, and
the constantly moving tide of emigra-
-. tion in this rapidly growing country
hwill look upon this section as the mec-
Ha of their hopes.
Those Behind Movement.
Just one year ago, Mr.. Willis 5.
Thompson, having retired from the
control and management of one of the
leading daily papers of Indiana, came
TO Hattiesburg, thinking perhaps the
newspaper field here might be lnVlt-
ing. He found the field far too small
to interest him, but he was almost IN
stantly captivated by the latent re-
sources awaiting development in the
cut-over pine lands. He investigated
the soil and it's productive qualities
and found it would produce in abun
dance practically every crop of the
temnerate zone. That cultivation was
easy, the climate ideal, both from
health standpoint and a Residential
point of view, and that the lanas Were
cheaper than even the arid lands o.
the west. Mr.. Thompson returned
north and accepted a $4,000 yea
position on The Chicago Examiner
\ one of the Hearst great syndicate o
b,apers. but he told Mr.. Leon V. Shear
er. an immigration expert and pei
sonal friends, of his find, and persuade'
Mr.. Shearer to come to Hattiesburl
and view the landscape o'er."
Optimistic View.
Mr.. Shearer came-and he stayed
and he thinks now that the next te
wears of his life will be devoted wit
profit to himself and associates, an

crop year. He must contract to live
on his land for three consecutive
years, and to clear and cultivate the
major portion Of 1t before securing his
final deed. He will be given a bond
in some large bonding company in the
sum of $1,000 to protect him in his
final title.
The Promoters Part.
AS compensation for their work and
the large expenditure of money, the
promoters of the plan will receive ten
per cent Of the gift lands; but ONLY
and not until AFTER the other ninety
per cent has been SATISFACTORILY
settled. They expect the satisfactory
settlement of the ninety per cent to
largely enhance the value of the ten
per cent; and they. expect the. satisfac-
tory settlement Of this ninety per cent,
and the large advertising incident
thereto to create large demand for
hundreds of thousands of other acres
in South Mississippi, and they hope.
though this is in no sense a condition
of their plan or proposition, that their
success in their first undertaking will
make them selling agents for large
part of these other lands, with satisfac.
tory commissions for this additional
work
Land Values viii Increase.
The men who donate the lands will
gain largely from the increased value
of their other lands by reason Of the
emigration movement; far and away
more than enough to compensate then
for the lands they give. The state
and her people will gain by the devel
opment of the great latent resources
The people who receive the lands fire.,
and those, thousands of others whit
come after them, will gain by securin,
some Of the most desirable lands Il
the nation at small price, and by CON
ing to one of the most healthful an
salubrious and desirable climates 4
the world to make their home.
viii Assist Emigrants.
But The Mississippi Colonization Al
sociation will not stop at the mer
settling of lands by gift or by sale
They will watch after the welfare q
these emigrants. before they come an
after they get here. First, they wi
have a soil survey made of all gil
and sale lands, and a newcomer-wh
may be an experienced farmer and ye
lacking in knowledge Of this soil an
section, will be informed as to whs
he can raise and how to raise it. The
will establish at their own expense e;
perimental farms, and cooperate wit
the Government in the employment {
; agricultural experts, and the settler
will be shown and told how to cult
cate their crops.
Great Advertising Scheme.

Gus condition since Sunday, when he
was operated upon for gallstones, was
in a critical state yesterday In his

symptoms shown at that hour con
