REV. MIILEIES COMMENT ON
DIR. EPSTEIN'S TRIGATISE.

East Radford, Va, Feb. II, 1918.
Editor The Planet:
Kindly allow space in your very
valuable paper for Il few words of
comment on the investigation and
writings Of DR.. Epstein on "The Negro
Migrant in Pittsburgh" and the arti-
clio from the pen Of the u1ov. G.. A.
Miller, Racine, Wisconsin. We have
watched with rapt interest and close
study the course of DR.. Abraham
Epstein and feel that he Is man
with n sound purpose and is carrying
forth his work with great force and
splendid effect.
We regret very much tho position
taken by the Rev. G. A. MILLER. We
fear that tho Reverend has not given
DR.. Epstein's work and results pro-
per thought, or else, he is bit
Inconsistent. All of us know that
there has been a Negro Exodus from
the South to the North within the
last year or two. and only too well do
we know OF the conditions causing
the exodus. the effect upon the white
people of the South, especially the
farmers, the result to the migrants
physically, intellectually, morally,
industrially and rcligiously--andt the
increase Of responsibility thrust upon
the people Of Pittsburgh and other
cities, to which they went.
We were and are, naturally anX-
ious about them. Now, as we see
it, DR. Epstein has endeavorcd to give
n true account Of the situation and
condition Of the migrants us they are
there now, compare them with their
situation before the exodus and let
us all draw conclusions as to whether
they are benefited by the change.
In this we think DR.. Epstein has
given most complete analysis OF
conditions, gathered statistics from
every possible source, presenting
facts and figures given by the mi
grants themselves. all Of which are
very interesting and valuable from
every viewpoint. His purpose has
not been, rs we understand 1t. to
study and write upon the condition
Of the Negro in the North, South,
Pittsburgh nor any place else, as n
whole, nor rs a Race, only rs per-
tains to tho Negro Exodus.
The results OF DR.. Epstein's effort
has been far reaching. Sentiment is
being made for our good. The mi
grants, as n whole, are doing we'll.
They are INDUSTRIOUS, law-abiding
citizens and will prove blessing to
the city or cities whore they are. The
result of the Investigations Of DR..
Epstein have been revelations TO the
South and will cause truth, that is
struggling In the womb Of human Of
fairs, crying to be delivered, to strug
gle the more until at last He gets
hearings
Let us watch further the course
Of DR.. Abraham Epstein.
Respectfully,
G. e. MILLER

Boundary County
Idaho

is the extreme northern county of
Idaho. It's principal resources are ag-
riculture, dairying and stock raising,
mining, timber. The county includes
large portion of the Kootenai Val
ley, the most fertile district of the
world. Cutover lands may be pur-
chased on long time contracts at from
$40 to $25 per acre. Bottom and mead
ow lands sell for from 50 to $50 per
acre. There are many hundreds of
acres of agricultural land in Boundary
county which will make fine homes for
the energetic farmer. Millions of feet
of timber remain uncut and the rivers
and creeks may be easily harnessed to
give thousands of horsepower. Raw
material in quantities to last 100 years,
for paper pulp, may be found in the
county and this timber is easy of ac-
cess. The mining industry is yet in
it's infancy. Sufficient capital would
put only one of a dozen mines on a
dividend-paying basis. The climate is
ideal, the rainfall all that is needed
No irrigation in this district. Good
roads, good schools. Plenty of trans
portation facilities.

SIOUX CITY LIVE STOCK MARKET

Sioux City, March 30.-There was
a slowing down to the entire cattle
trade today, influenced in a measure
by ~unfavorable wires from outside
centers, and while there was no great
break reported on fat cattle, prices
were easier as a rule, while light
stock cattle were sharply lower. Run
at hand was moderate, estimate call

ago and 1,142 the corresponding day
a year ago.
Hog prices were given another
