Comparisons OF this kind showing
how far ahead the South is in many
respects OF the United States in 1880
could be given almost without limit.
These are sufficient to indicate the gem
eral situation 1t is little difficult for
US sometimes to quite grasp the fact
that in bank deposits, in industrial pur-
suits and in agriculture as we'll as in pub
lie education the South OF to-day ranks
SO far ahead OF the United States in 1880.
The total wealth of the South to-day is
less than that OF the United States in
1880, because the South has noty yet had
time to accumulate vast wealth out Of
its achievements in industry and agri-
culture of recent years. 1t is, however,
rapidly piling up wealth which, within
the next few years, will amaze the
country by its magnitude.
In studying the future OF the South
and planning for financial and railroad
operations in connection Herewith, it
would be we'll for these facts to be borne
in mind. But these statistics, amazing
as they are, are not half SO interesting
for the story they tell OF what has been
done as for the light they throw upon
the future. Every careful student Of the
material resources and development Of
the South knows that this section, not
withstanding the progress made, has
scarcely begun its development when
compared with the growth which will
be seen within the next ten or fifteen
years. All that has been done has been
really merely the clearing Of the land
and the sowing OF the seed for the great
harvest which this section is now pre-
pairing to reap.
The South has only begun to utilize
its raw materials. 1t has only here and
there opened up its coal mines, its mar
BILE and granite quarries, and its IRON
making ksources. It has only COM
n1shced Il in the last few years to get
back to than icultural condition which
existed prior lhe war, when there was
a welI-rounded qrfoultural diversity. 1t
is only within the last few years that the
Central South, from Maryland to the
Missi River, has been raising as
much corn and live stock as il did in.
1860, when the population Of this sec
ton was only one-third Of what it now
is.
The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1914-02-27

The statement sometimes heard that
the great development Of the last twenty
five years is mainly due to an infusion
OF outside blood and capital seriously
misrepresents the facts. No man who
has that impression can rightly forecast
the progress of the coming years, be-
cause he is viewing the situation from
an erroneous standpoint.
Since 1865 the Central South has sent
beyond its borders by emigration into
other sections more than 3 $500, 900 its
white people and more than 10000
into Texas and Oklahoma. The COM
paratively few persons from other sec
tions who have come into the South,
when gwen the fullest measure Of credit
for what they have achieved, cannot in
the smallest degree Offset the tremendous
loss OF energy and power Of the 5, 100000
people that went out of the Central
South by reason of the poverty of OPP
portunity following the war and the days
of reconstruction.
The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1914-02-27

For forty years or more the South
was passing through a wilderness. Its
people had lost by virtue Of the war
the ability to carry on the well-round-
ed diversified agriculture which ex-
listed prior to 1860. The capital was

The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1914-02-27

Those who would study the future Of
the South with view to ascertaining
something of the rapidity OF its develop
ment should fully understand what the
old South was doing in material activities
before 1860, what it lost by the war and
the poverty following it and what the
South has achieved since then; and to
these facts should be added knowledge
Of the uniqueness Of the South's re-
sources for the support Of a dense popu-
Iation. Not until they have done this
will they be able to form even slight
conception Of the rapIdity Of material
development and wealth accumulation
throughout the South during the next
ten or fifteen years.
The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1914-02-27

Now the trend is back to the South.
Men who have made a success in other
sections are hearing the come-home" /"
call of their native land and many OF
them are returning. Many from other
sections are beginning their southwark
march in order to share in the amazing
development which they see is to come
about in this section. They want to be
part and parcel of it and to reap some
of the harvest. Thus the whole condi-
ton has completely changed. And in
stead of having to make heroic effort
to keep its own people at home and to
draw men and money from other Sec
tions, as was the case for twenty-five or
thirty years, the South now finds abuud-
ant employment at home for its own
people. 1t finds tens OF thousands from
the North and West annually moving
southwark, and itfinds that the capitalist
is searching out in every direction OPP
portunities for investment in the South.
The promoter seeking capital for new
enterprise no longer has to argue with
the capitalist that the South is good
place in which to invest money. All
that he has to do is to prove that his
own particular enterprise is good one.
The outside capitalist is fully impressed
with the fact that this is the most richly
endowed section OF the world and that
it is the coming Eldorado OF American
adventure. !"

tisan il all things. Democrats might

shut out Catholics. and the Catholics
would do the same thing if they had

hands would come down on the So

indeed, Dixie. let the mails remain

themselves just how much OF it they
will believe. They will decide any
how. and right Or wrong, the real

Representative Underwood, major
ity leader in Congress, in his speech
against repeal of the tolls exemption
law, resorted to the old trick, for
fifty years the favorite of the repub-
licans, Of appealing to prejudice
against England. In the course of
his speech, he referred to the tolls
charged by Great Britain on shipping
thru the SueZ canal. Seems to the
Star like a statesman Of Mr. Under
woods standing should know better
Neither Great Britain nor any other
nation owns the tSueZ canal nor
charges tolls on ships passing thru it
1t belongs to private company, in
which it happens that Englishmen
own majority of the stock. But the
tolls were fixed by international
agreement, consented to by the other
commercial nations of the world
when the canal was opened almost
fifty years ago, and when French cap
italists held the control that English
men now have. This agreement does
not exempt the ships of Great Britain
nor any other nation.
