I. R. APPEALS To
SOUTH ON TARIFF
Other Party Platform Offers No
Advantage to Producer, He
Tells Louisianans.

NEW ORLEANS. Sept. 21-In this
r4gtdly Democratic state Colonel
Roosevelt today made an appeal to
the Democrats to support the Progress
siye party. The eX- president assailed
the Democratic house for its recent at.
tempt to remove the tariff on sugar.
The New Orleans address of Colonel
Roosevelt. coming after mis- long jump
from Jackson, Miss, is really the first
elaborate expression OF his reason for
asking Democratic support in the
South He made his appeal on the
ground that neither the Republican nor
the Democratic party has a tariff plat
foru that promises anything advan-
faeeous to the producer. The colonel
took tire ground that it is time the
Coutr nrpke away from the old theory
thai. light or wrong, it must adhere
10 the Democratic party. He argued
tina. the South, by joining the Pro
gressive party, would make the first
step in asserting itself in the affairs OF
the nation at large.
Last night Colonel Roosevelt passed
through Mississippi. He holds no false
hopes that that state may be changed
in a short campaign but he does have
prospects in Tennessee, while Louisiana
is rated as y state where Progressive
party principles may find fertile ground.
The Bull Moose candidate reached
New Orleans shortly before noon today,
He was given cordial reception in
the Mardi Gras city and was put at the
head of a great automobile parade
through the crowd lined streets of the
cfty. The colonel was offered either a
private or a public luncheon and he
rose the former.
Colonel Roosevelt and his party will
leave tonight for Alabama and Georgia.
ON Monday the colonel will double back
into Tennessee, for that faction ridden

uortunities for the Progressive party,

U. S. Forester Henry S. Graves
Says Leasing Of AIaSkna
Coal Lands, With Adequate
Royalties Is the Only SOlu-
ton
OF THE ALASKAN QUESTION
The Government Operation Of Mines
Would Lead to II Also Cutting Its
Own Timber From Forest Reserves
This Would, in Turn, Lead to Its
Going Into the Dressed Lumber and
Other Buslness-WOusd, in Fact,
Lead to Practical Socialism.
[uNIrrp rnnss 1nAsnp w1nn.l

San Francisco, Jan. 23-Govern-
ment leasing to private concerns Of
coal lands on the public domain in
Alaska, with adequate royalties,
seems to me more feasible than the
outright government operation of Alas
ka coal fields said United States
Forester Henry s. Graves, who is in
attendance at conference of Sierra
district forest supervisors here.
"The same thing mitigates against
government operation of mines and
railroads in Alaska as is urged against
the government saving and marketing
of timber from its reserves--the reti-
cence of the people to take this rad
ical step.
Theoretically, 1t is desirable; prGc-
tically 1t is not so feasible. The pub
lie does not seem to be ready to place
the ownership and operation of these
things in the hands Of the federal au-
thorities, because they believe the time
is not ripe when the government stew
ards can operate as efficiently as
private concerns.
For instance, II the government
sawed its own timber in its reserves,
where would we stop? Would we be
content to get the timber out to mar
ket, or would we be virtually COM
PEELED to finish 1t, and see that It got
to the customer, rather than to the
retailer? That would result in public
operation of all business II the scheme
were carried to logical conclusion.
The public does not seem ready as
yet to take that step"
Forester Graves believes that the
lar applying to permits for the use Of
government land by water power com
binations should be changed so that
these permits could be given for a
limited term of 40 or so years, instead
Of being as at present revocable at any
time. He believes that this would at
tract great deal more capital to the
slopes of the sierras, and would do
much to help solve the water prob
lem in California. He probably will
suggest such legislation in the near
future
