every phase of human endeavor In
order to make doubly sure the profit
ableness of the investments which
they now have in the South. Every
banking house which has put the mon
ey of its clients into hydro-electric
developments, in street railways en-
terprises or kindred operations is Wit
ally interested in the broadcast work
for Southern upbuilding. Two hun
dreds Of millions of dollars represent
ed in these investments must be
made to yield large profit through
the still broader development of every
phase of Southern activity than we
have yet seen. Every stakeholder in
these enterprises, as we'll as every
stakeholder of every railroad in the
South, ought to be kept in constant
touch with the progress of this Sec
ton and with the opportunities which
it presents for the investment of new
capital and the expansion of business
The railroads of the South will need
to raise good many hundreds OF
millions of dollars in the next five or
six years in order to increase their
facilities in keeping with the poten-
tialities of this region. They need
therefore, to cultivate among their
present stockholders, as we'll as with
the public at large, a closer acquaint
ance-ship with the South in order that
when additional capital is needed il
may be the more easily secured. They
should steadily broaden the know
ledge of the South throughout the in
vesting and business circles of this
country and Europe, because there
will be a need for almost unlimited
capital to carry out the constructive
work absolutely required in all parts
of the South, and which will necessar
lily absorb hundreds of millions of dol
lars.
The banking houses of the East
and West and English and Canada
which have heavy investments in the
South and the dominating powers in
Southern railroads have never yet
taken hold of this situation with the
same energy and broadness of view
which have marked the operations Of

How to Strengthen and

AN OPEN LETTER INVESTMENT AGENCIES RAIL
OTHERS INTERESTED IN THE SOUTH.

-tBy Richard H. Edmonds, of the Man
ufacturers Record.)
Eastern, Western, English and Can
adam capitalists are at the present
time putting largely over 100000. 900
into Southern hydro-electric plants.
Their plants will involve the ultimate
expenditure of $15O.OOO,OOO to $780,
100000. Great banking houses land
strong promoting concerns which have
been making these water-power in
vestments are also in many cases
heavily interested in public utilities,
especially street railways, gas and
electric plants in the South. These
concerns have staked their reputation
and the money of their clients upon
the South. and we believe very wisely
so. In order, however, to make sure
that there shall be no hating, even
temporarily, in the South's progress,
no lessening of the market for its
securities, 1t is incumbent upon them,
as well upon the people who control
the railroads and other great enter
prises in this section, to bend every
energy to the development of the
South and Southwest to its increase
in population, in manufactures, in
agriculture, in city growth, and in

owners who have staked their repu-
tation and the hundreds of millions
of capital OF their clients upon the
growth of the West and the Pacific
Coast. The time has come for a rad
ical change in this respect.
Every street-railway or public-ser-
vice company in the South controlled
by outside capital should be an active
factor in attracting men and money to
its community. No other interest is
more vitality concerned as to the prog
ress of city than the public-service
corporations, whose very life depends
upon the goodwill and. the progress
of the community in which it exists.
Railroad operators have often COM
planned of the lack of capital to f.
nance improvements in the South.
They have to large extent depended
upon the bankers to take their securi-
ties and create a market for them, but
they should consider the vital impor-
lance of making the whole country so
thoroughly acquainted with the re-
sources of the south as to create a
worldwide investing demand for
Southern railroad securities, those
now outstanding, as well as the hun
dreds of millions that must be issued.
Some of the railroads in the South are
doing splendid work through their in
dustrial and immigration departments
in making known the advantages of
this section for farmers and manufac-
turers, and yet the possibilities of the
South are so limitless that the amount
of money furnished to these industrial
and immigration departments is pic
ayunish as compared with what should
be at their command. Not the man.
ayers of Southern railroads, except in
rare cases, but the banking houses in
New York and elsewhere, which DOM
mate these roads, are the ones upon
whom the blame must rest for not
providing ten times as much money
for the work of these departments as
they now have at their command.
1t cannot be too strongly emphasiz-
ed that the banking and promoting
| interested in financing Southern wat
empower developments must help to
create the industries which will take
the power thus generated.
Public service corporations must be
leaders in the upbuilding of their COM
munities.
The railroads and the banking hous-
es identified with all these interests
must broaden their campaign in way
which as yet they have seemed to lit
tie dream of if they would make the
most of the situation and bring to
their security-holders and to the
South the prosperity which can be
created by work of this kind. These
things are absolutely essential to the
best interests of present investors in
Southern securities, to create broad
err demand for new securities and a
broader expansion of the South's bust
ness activities.

the idea OF the leaders of the other par

issue of the coming campaign. Governor
Woodrow Wilson, of New Jersey, today
stated that the matter was so interlaced
with the questions of the trusts and other
big issues as to be too complicated to
be discussed informally.
Undoubtedly the tariff is the center
of it all said Governor Wilson. THE
thing is interlaced with public questions
of all kinds, but the tariff is at the heart
of it all a great many of the trust
questions of the time have arisen out
of the tariff. The minute you start from
the center you go into the trust ques
ton
The governor was asked if he expected
to shed his coat and put his shoulder to
the fight against Roosevelt in. the progress
siye campaign. He stated that he had not
determined what course he would pursue
in his campaign and said that he wished
for time to organize his thoughts into
tangible form.
