A BROAD HINT TO
FLORIDA LAND MEN

The question of the best way to
get more people to come to Florida
and make their homes here is always
a vital one. We want to get pro-
ducers, the virile, energetic, con-
structive kind, who make the waste
places smile with well-tilled farms
and pretty homes, and we care not
where they come from so they an
swer these conditions. North, South,
East and West look alike to us, so
they furnish us population that will
put brain and muscle and character
and persistence into the work Of de-
veloping Florida and filling it with
good people, loyal to their adopted
State, bona fde citizens here to stay
and not always telling us about
"back home as though they were
merely transients with no thought
of permanent residence here.
California, the only formidable
competitor with Florida in the race
for development and more people, is
drawing heavily upon the sturdy
population of the Middle West,
where, despite a rich soil and other
advantages, the climate leaves much
to be desired and where there are
thousands of people in good circum-
stances, able and eager to seek an
other latitude where there is more
sunshine and less snow and ice and
quite as much prosperity for the
man who works to deserve it. The
great Pacific commonwealth is get
ting these people by the simple pro-
cess of intelligent and persistent ad-
vertising-always with printers

ing daily papers in the country
where the immigration is sought.

West two or three years ago, found
the country he desired and Is now
a permanent and valuable citizen.
This past summer he went back to

the Telegram published letter from
him, written from Minnesota, from
which we reproduce the following
suggestive paragraph which needs
no comment: 4
Elm Iowa and Minnesota conditions
are much better than in the States
farther east. The farmers have
prospered and their lands have more
than doubled in value the last few
years and many are selling out at
forty to a hundred thousand dollars
each. They are ready to take life
easy and they usually seek q warm
er climate. Large numbers of them
have been going to California and
l presume because they have not
heard much about Florida. In
Iowa's leading daily paper, which
covers very rich territory, my ad-
vertisement was the oniy one Oh
Florida, while, on the same page
there Were twenty-four California
ads and the one from Long Beach
stated that fifty per cent of their
people came from Iowa. I think IL
would pay our Florida land men to
do some Of their advertising in this
part Of the country. Think OF
what 1t would mean to the town II

men with their money. locate in

Kaiser Seeking
Peace Agreement
With France Alone

Paris, Oct. 30.-The kaiser's advisers
and agents have made an effort during
tho last few days to separate France
from her allies and enable their gov.
ernment, while posing before the outer
world and her own people as earnestly
desirous Of peace, to pursue the war
with hopes Of success.
Briefly, in formation has been con-
veysd to certain influential Frenchmen,
who were expected to act as intermedi-
aries, that the German imperial gov.
eminent recognizes tho quality Of the
stand made by the French armies, has
never regarded France as her principal
enemy in this struggle and is ready to
make peace on terms not merely hon.
orabIe but generous for the republic.
These terms would include the trans.
fer to France Of Metz and the neigh
boring portion Of Lorraine, and per.
haps also Of at least part Of Alsace.
This proposition, il 10 true, was not
made thru official but thru commercial
and financial channels, yet with appar.
ent authority.

Washington, Oct 30.-Rehearing on
the application of the eastern railways
for general freight rate increase was
concluded today before tho interstate
commerce commission. 1t Is expected
the case will be considered by the
commission next week for a Decision.
Clifford Thorne. speaking in the in.
tercst Of numerous shippers associa-
tons, summed up the opposition. He
declared nothing IN the way of new de-
velopmcnts beyond the European war
had been brought out to Justify the
renewed appeal. Mr.. Thorns asserted
that the financial statements for tho
current year filed by the carriers to
support the statements Of Inadequate
revenues, afforded no basis for COM
parlson for preceding years. for the
policy OF the roads had been altered.
He said the 1914 charges showed Z
great increase despite falling revenues
while previously these items had nj.
ways moved in the same direction.
Message From Gerard ohlsrsd.
George +. Brownell. OF counsel for
the railroads. devoted much OF his
argument to tho power Of the commis-
sion to grant the relief sought ON the
general showing made at the rahAartng.
He said congress had empowered the
commission to reverse Itself ~ new
facts warranted. and declared the pre-.
vious ruling denying increases would
have been greatly altered had conci-
tons been as they now arc. Mr.
Brownell read cablegram from Am.
bassador Gerard. at Berlin. which pro.
voked considerable comment by Conn
missioners Clement and Meyer. Tho
message compared Prussinn and Amer.
lean freight rates. showing tho latter
to be lower, and said tho ambassador
had been informed by the directors
OF the Deutsche bank that confidence
Of investors In American securities
was shaken by rising wages and re-
duced freight rates Commissioner
Meyer insisted the figures could be Of
no use to the commission as no basis
for the comparison Of the rates was
furnished.
Gerard's Statement "voluneary."
Louis d. Brandeis. special counsel
for the commission, said Mr.. Gerard
had heen asked II German freight rates
advanced and replied they had not. He
characterized the message read as
voluntary statement"
AT tho conclusion OF Mr.. Brownell's
argument. Chief Counsel Patterson, FOR
the carriers, announced the case was
concluded and the commission ad
journed.
