PROGRESS OF THE SOUTH.
FOUNDED 1888.

III HE wonderful progress made by the New
i South is set forth impressively in a special
edition of the Manufacturers Record Although
the increase in population in the south has been
only II per cent in thirty years her cotton spndles
have increased 1850 and her looms l,52l per cent.
There has been a remarkable growth in the manu-
facture of cotton seed oil However, the most not
able thing about it all is the showing in coal oil
production--an increase of 1885 per cent. The
south now produces annually S5,000,000 barrels of
petroleum.
That is the bright side-the increase in material
progress, but there is another and darker story
which has been told by the government agents who
have investigated the conditions governing en-
pioyment in the cotton mills of the south. Public
opinion, however, is rapidly being formed so that
there will be a correction Of these abuses An or
ganization has been effected representing sixteen
southern states which proposes to study sociologi
cal and industrial problems and seek to have pro-
per remedies applied, while at the time it
will conduct campaign of education and public
ity illustrative of the agricultural industrial and
commercial opportunities presented in the south.
This organization contemplates the establish
ment in each state Of an immigration bureau for
the purpose of disseminating trustworthy informa-
ton regarding the resources, possibilities and op
portunities of the south
1t will be supported by the states machinery and
money under the direct supervision of the COVER
nor of each state with practical business man in
charge His duties will include cooperation with
the United States government the transportation
companies, the commercial bodies, the real estate
men, the press of the Southern Settlement and De-
velopnent organization in the effort TO develop
fully the vast resources of the various states
interested in the movement.

ITALYs WAR FEVER.

A LTHOUGH little is heard on this side of the
I ocean of the war between Italy and Turkey
it is still going and Italy is possessed with the
war fever which shows no signs of abating. She
has already 10000 soldiers in Tripoli but the most
this great force has been able to accomplish so far
is TO hold down a narrow strip of country along
the coast.
Desiring to make further progress 10000 addi-
tional soldiers have been forwarded to Tripoli, but
there is assurance that the increased force will
make any more headway than has already been
gained
The war has not proved the easy task that was
anticipated when the gay Italians set out to make
short work of Turkeys hold on Northern Africa
The war drags slowly and an enormous expense is
being incurred But the Italian people appear to
revel in the joy it brings. The Chamber of De-
puties the other day passed bill for the annexa-
alton of Tripoh. There was a monster demonstra-
tion in Rome Business was suspended, homes
Illuminated and 100000 persons paraded the
streets cheering for the minister of war and the
king. They don't think of the expense and suf
ferng that war causes.

DEVELOPING WATER FACILITIES.

A REMARKABLE phase of the growth and
development of great seaports is noticed
in the vast expenditure of money being
made in the worlds centers of water
borne commerce. There is general real
ization of the vital importance of making the
most of opportunities for the employment of ships
in trade.
Montreal has spent about Sl0,000,000 on its har
Dor, aided literally by the dominion government
and now S2,000,000 annually is being devoted to
the same use, the limit of the plans under way
being S6,000,000 in addition TO the S10000000 ear
lier invested
Last summer Massachusetts authorized the ex-
pendture of $9,000,000 to be raised by the sale of
state bonds, in the improvement of the harbor of
Boston and the building of new wharves there. The
money is to be handled by commission, the chair
of which is to be an expert who will receive
$4,000 a year for his services.
Buenos Aires in Argentina, South America is
spending money even more lavishly than it is
being spent in the chief ports of Canada and New
England The channel of the La Plata and the
water front of the great metropolis of South Amer
lea is being developed
In nearly all the large foreign cities much
money is being expended The amounts necessary
to develop the river front of Wilmington are small
in comparison with the sums expended by many
other cities.

THE GREAT LAWYER WHO COULDN'T
KEEP ACCOUNTS

Il have always heard" I said that
Mr.. Choate as a lawyer possessed an
almost intuitive ability to master fig
ures to sssimilate them; to handle
the most complicated statements so as
effectively 70 present them to a judge
or a jury"
Yes, that is true" replied Mr. Col
Inns, "and yet | have been told by
lawyers of Boston who we're intimate
ly acquainted with Mr.. Choate that
he never was able to keep any per-
sonal accounts and not until he had
taken in a junior partner, nearly
twenty years after he began practice
at the bar, was there anything like
order or accurate bookkeeping car
ried on in his office
'Choate had been practicing law a
year or two when one day he wanted
to find out what some item of office
or personal expense had been. There
wasn't a scrap of paper in his office
which would show him the figures
and he could not remember the fig
ures, although he remembered what
the item of expense was about Turn
ing to his clerk, he said:
81 have always tried to keep my
accounts in my head; well, that is
a good place to keep some things, but
I have made up my mind that it is a
Door place to keep accounts Now,
wish you would go out and buy me a
blank book-not a big one; I'd like
il about the size and shape Of a sheet
of foolscap paper
Evening journal., 1912-03-02

"The clerk speedily purchased and
carried to Mr.. Choate blank book as
nearly of the kind that Mr. Choate had
asked for as he could find. The great
lawyer sat down before it and, taking
a quill pen, dashed off on the first
page an item to this effect: office,
debtor, to one lamp and oil, sixty-five
cents Said Mr. Choate: Hereafter |
shall enter upon this book each day
every item of office or personal ex-
pensesl 1t only requires a little meth
cd and a little time.
"Well, continued Mr.. Collins. chat
expense book lay upon Rufus Choates
desk nearly year without any item
being entered into it, Then, one day
his eye fell upon it, and remembering
his resolution he entered in the book
a second item of office expense for
less than a dollar, saying as he made
the entry that from that time on he
would try to be a careful accountant.
There never was another entry in
that account book Those two entries,
which we're nearly a year apart, were
all of the accounts that Rufus Choate
ever kept until years after, when a
junior partner attended to that busi-
ness for him. If that isn't an eccen-
tricity of genius, then / do not know
of any" Then, with a merry twinkle
Mr. Collins added: Il differ. however.

The TRUE SUPERMAN
BY The REV. r. l. JACKSON

Frederick Nietzshe's 0ream Of a
race of supermen who shall be SUI
perior to the present race Of men in
the degree in which the present race
is superior to the apes. grew out of
his disgust with the tame, passion
less, mediocre individuals of modern
Europe who called themselves men.
The average European. he declared
to be a tame house animal, without
individuality and without initiative,
anaemic and hefIicent-altogether
poor apology for a human being. lie-.
lieving that no more of this type
should be produced. he demanded the
removal of all those conditions which
were responsible for IL. Ny ,she
saw in Christianity, with its protec-
ton for the weak and its succor Of
the needy, the principle producing
condition, and he. therefore, turned
all guns upon t.:
The Christian religion, coming to
the assistance of the weaker types. is
the chief obstacle to the evolution of
strong, masterful type of humanity.
There can be no true SOver mont un-
I'll Christianity is gotten rid Of, and
men are free to assert themselves
untrammeled by its restraining in
fiuence.
Nietzshe's receipt for a race OF
supermen is to let the egotism Of hui
manity have free play OF course,
this means that the defective, the
delinquent. and the weak will go to
the wall. but this is what his program
contempates and calls for-only in
this way can the superman finally
come.
Nietzshe's superman is an arch
egotist, riding rough shod over his
fellows, trampling down the weak,
condemning the crowd. treating
women as toys, and destitute of any
considerable sense of reverence, of
duty. and of self-discipline.
1t is one of the most curious and
pathetic of all ironios, that he, who
idolized strength and self-assertion.
became himself weak and deDendent
upon others Nietzshe denounced in
the bitterest terms the very snirit
upon which he had to depend for his
comfort. He rallied at the way peo-
ple sacrificed themselves for others
and yet. had II not been for the
snirit of self-sacrifice he would have
died iong before he did.

FRUIT I'M PENNSYLYANIA.

pennsylvania has not been noted as a great
i fruit producing state, but horticultural socie-
ties are now being organized in many counties with
the view of promoting interest in fruit culture.
1t is announced from Harrisburg that an inves-
tigaton to determine to what extent varieties of
fruit trees, berry bushes, vines and vegetables
tive to Pennsylvania susceptible to injury by
the weknown kinds of diseases will be made this
year under direction of State Zooogist Surface.
The investigation will be conducted on broad
lines and il is possible as an outcome that fruit
culture will be given greater impetus in the Key
stone commonwealth.
Delaware should pay even more attention to
fruit producing than it does at present. Apples,
in measure, have taken the place of peaches
and strawberries while other fruits are grown in
abundance, but the output of Delaware fruit could
be tripled and even then there would be plenty
of room for still greater advances.

EMpInYERS LIARmITY Bill.

THE Maryland Legislature is considering en-
i ployers' liability bills. The session is young
yet, but nine such measures have been presented.
The large number of bills offered shows the wide
spread interest in the matter.
It NAV be accepted as a fact that before many
wears ali states will have employers liability laws.
But there is danger in Maryland with so many
bills that nothing will be done and that the sub
ect will go over until the next Legislature When
so many cooks are busy the broth will be spoiled.
The question of an employers liability law was
brought before the last session of the Delaware
Legislature and commission was appointed to
prepare bill and to report to the next session. 1t
would be we'll for this commission to present their
work early in the session so that it may be thor
oughly considered.
