capital. As editor Uf the Union he was in the front rank of the profession when papers were read for their opinions rather | than for their news. Blair was master or a simple, direct, terse style and a full
 match for Greeley himself. His two sons, Frank and Montgomery, were char ter members of the republican party, one In the federal army and the other in Lin coins cabinet; but al soon as the negro was freed they again became democrats and Frank Blair was the democratic can- didate for Vice President in 1868.
 Blair Lee was chip of the old block. successful lawyer and man of the highest character He showed that ne was the stuff of which statesmen are made by his course in the Maryland State Senate, of which he was and is a leader He could have had anything, he could have been anything, had he joined the machine and stopped to be a part of it, but he preferred democracy for principle to democracy for spoil, and that fact made him the leader of the an- ti-machine' party. He made brilliant canvas and would have been the nominee for governor. had there been fair pri- mary. But lie astonished Maryland, and the race he ran paralyzed the machine and gave hope to the real democrats of the state. '...sa ''t ...-
 He defeated the scheme which was the dual boss ship of young German and John Walter Smith. It is not at all like ly that Smith will succeed himself as senator, and we may be sure that Cor man will not get Rayner's seat in the Senate Both German and Smith are re- publicans on the tariff question, and chat is now paramount -f
 And the day will come when the Mar tin machine across the Potomac will be as thoroughly discredted as the German Smith machine in Maryland. The people intend to discipline their bosses of both parties And it is the fault of the bosses themselves. Had they been true to the people nobody would have challenged their leadership or sought their over throw. The like is true Of the trusts. They acquired monopoly with the weapon Of cheapness. Had they maintained it by the same means there would not have been an octopus chase. It is true that such chase affords fine field for your contemptible demagogue, who would have been impotent if the octopus had behaved itself.

NEW RAILROAD FOR THRIVING UFAULA Citizens Raise Money for Building the Line To
 ChattahoOchee

Eufaua, October 4.-(Special) )-Through w l.. Wild, president of the Bank of Eufaula, it was learned today that all the capital stock of the Eufaula end Chattahoochee Railroad con- rany, of this city, had been paid into the treasury and that incorporation papers had been filed. An. erroneous impression formerly was current. that only 20 per cent had been collected. Every sub scriber to the capital stock has given negotiable papers acceptable to the banks at any moment on q par basis of 100 cents. The total stock subscription now amounts to $65 eco. few minor details remain to be arranged when actual, construction will be started. President Wild said the read is nabsolute certainly and indi- cates new era of prosperity for Eufaula.
 The intensive system of farming has been partially adopted here by T. A. Davis. leading mercantile man, who will cultivate five acres in cotton the coming year from which he anticipates a yield of ten bales. 800 pounds each. He will mercial fertilizers, lay his rows six feet apart and reduce his stand to one stalk 1T; a hill, the hills to be four feet apart.

PERSONAL GAIN IS
 SAID TO BE OBJECT
Director Page Is Authority for the Statement That the Operations of the Concern Are
 Fraudulent
ny WALTER HARPER

Washington, October 4.-(special)-lt
 has leaked out in Washington that Uni
 ted States postoffice inspectors are on the | trail of officials of the National Good
 Roads association of which Arthur c.
 Jackson of Chicago is president.
 This organization and its methods have been under the surveillance officials of the United States office of public roads and
 of the postoffice department for some months indeed since the last meeting or the association which was held in Bir-
 mingham last spring.
 It has been charged that the National Good Roads association is without regular organization, that no officers are ever reg ularly elected, that 1t has no regular delegated membership, that it is simply scheme of President Jackson to make money for himself; that no practical high wa.- improvement has ever been inspired pr accomplished; that there is no &C., counting of its officers to any one; that it's principal business is the holding Of conventions in cities that will agree to put up cash money and that its methods are fraudulent.
 Logan Waller Page director of the Uni
  quoted in a story published in Wash ington paper that the said A. C. Jackson is using the organization for his own personal gain and that his operations are fraudulent. The publication of the story with the additional fact that post office inspectors are Investigating the methods of the association was premature but after 1t was made public MT. Page admits that the statements. are correct,
 but fears the publicity will interfere with a full investigation of the matter. The basis on which the postoffice of ficials are working is that the mails have been used for fraudulent purposes, and it Is understood that the inspectors working on the case have about concluded their investigation, but are not ready to re- port.
 MT. Page has more than once publicly exposed the methods of MT. Jackson, after a careful examination of the organization and personnel of the alleged board of di- rectors. This board of directors about a year ago was made up of some of the most prominent business and professional men of the country. Practically all these
 nen have declared to the officials that their names were used by MT. Jackson without authority and in some cases Mir.
 Jackson threatened with suit if he per sisted in the use of names.
 Letters confirming these facts are on file in Washington.
 The incident that precipitated the pre- mature publicity was the announcement a few days ago that President Jackson
 had started a campaign to raise s1.0o0 GOO to promote the building of roads and to secure road legislation.

In 1910 there were A cities in the south having population of 25.OOo or more. The increase in these cities in 10 years had been at the rate of 244 pei. cent. But the increase in that period in the urban. popu- lation of the south had been 3L7 per cent.
 Between 1900 and 1910 the urban popula- tion of the south increased from. 450S. 3S5 to G206,59S, a gain of 1,60S.2l3, equal to BIT per cent, and the increase in urban pop ulation in the rest of the country was from 27,079157 to 36, 416,7s5, a gain of 9,337,- 62S equal to 34.4 per cent.
 Although the souths increase from i'm migration is much less rapid than that of the rest of the country, in the end its white population will be the more homo geneous and desirable for that very req son.
