today only in the youth of its devel opment. Its industrial conditions may not be perfect. but compared with anything else he will find on the globe. he will have no second choice.
 High as our taxes are at the moment we are today the most lightly taxed people in the world. Our war debt will be retired in twenty-five years at the present rate of reduction. except what will remain over for pensions. Our wealth grows faster than Great Britain. Italy, France and Germany combined and as it does, the ratio of taxation will decrease when pres ent immediate obligations are met. There will be no nation that can offer the same safety to the immi- grant who desires to work
 The man who goes to Russia will stand to pay its war bankruptcy and $, will two generations that will follow him. He will find similar conditions in Australia, where the burdens of the late, war are now causing almost immediate stagna. ton. Brazil and Argentina, wonder ful in their prospects of wealth, are where the United States was fifty years ago. They are seeking capita to expand and paying dearly fol what they get. Their taxes are fal higher than ours and their develop ment far behind.

NEW DENTIST IN NENANA;
 HAS OFFICES OF DR. BOWEN

The dental offices of Dr. Bowen were re-opened this week by Dr. D. C. Hardy, who arrived from Seward on Sunday to locate per manently in Interior Alaska. Dr.. Hardy has had wide experience in the practice of his profession and brings to Nenana with him all the latest approved methods of work in his line
 Dr. Hardy spent some time at Seward and other coast points be- fore coming to the Interior and 1t is his intention to make his nome here.
 Conditions along the coast are improving now, the doctor says. due to the commencement of act ivities among the canneries and a revival of work along the Alaska Railroad. Both Seward and Anchor age, at the time he left the coast had about been cleaned out of labor by the demand for men on railroad work.
 Like others who have arrived re- gently, Dr. Hardy believes that the Interior country will be visited by many Outsiders during the coming summer and it is his opinion the i Territory in general will witness q general revival of business during the present year.

CoBWEB ECONOMISTS

Some of the publicists who are al ways worrying about this country, says the Providence Tribune, are now predicting that the United States will soon lose it's place as the melting pot of nations. They see the tide of immigration flowing from Europe hereafter to South American countries, and the immigration ex- pert of the Cleceland Trust Com pany says that Russia of the future will stand in the same relation to the European immigrant as the United States in the last century. g
 One reason given wby the Tnite4 States is to be passed up is the European peasants dislike of pro- hibition and the other is said to be the craving for open-air landed life" in preference to the congested tenements and mil life of the Unit ed States. For these reasons, South America, Siberia and even Australia will be preferred, say these students of the trend of foreign immigra- tion. But they offer no proof and they cannot-at least. not such as would pass scrutiny in any well in. formed place.
 Immigrants who want to leave their homes will in very rare in stances will be deterred even by weII-enforced prohibition laws. That is about the last thing that would be in the serious thought Of a mar determined to cross the ocean foI q new home. His mind will be whol ly on the fact as to whether he car better his life and he will measure future possibilities by his present condition. To such then there will be no haven to compare with the United States. He will come 10 2 land of plenty. with one-third of the wealth of the civilized globe, ana

Mistaken Identity.

At the fall term of the Court OF
General Sessions which convened in
Kingstree on the oath day of Octo-
ber, a young white man who gave
his name as John Sports was con-
'vitted of forging check and sentenc-
ed to two years in the >penitentiary
This man was from the Morrisville
section, and we find that there is an
other young white man living in the
Greelyville section whose name is al
so John Sports. The young man ir
the Greelyville section is the son OF
Ben F. Sports and we wish to inform
readers of The County Record ano
the public in general that it was the
John Sports from Morrisville and not
the John Sports from Greelyville who
was convicted Of forgery. Mr.. Sports
from Greelyville called this to our at,
+teation and requested that this ex,
PLANTATION be made.

The Boss Sweet Spud."

A sweet potato weighing exactly
ten pounds was left at The Reco1 d
office yesterday by Mr.. F. w. Fairey.
This is the largest member of the
species we have seen since Jumbo"
weighing Is 1-2 pounds made its ap-
pearance in Kingstree several years
ago. Mr.. Fairey says he raised this
sweet spud and that he has a large
patch of them. We have no reason
whatever to doubt him, for we know
he is a farmer. Once he nearly
walked US to death showing us over
his plantation with its beautiful crops.
Besides, he raises lots Of hogs. Once
we saw him enter a gate to one of
his fields and heard him give few
yells that would have put a Kanka-
kee indian to flight, and in less time
than it takes to tell it there were
more than four hundred hogs came
tearing out of the woods to see what
was the matter. We also get stray
pieces of his mail occasionally, and
only this week we accidently open
letter to Mr.. Fairey from some
| livestock broker. We soon discover
ed that the letter was not intended
for US and therefore do not know its
text, but it is probable that Mr.. Fairey
is negotiating with this livestock
man with a view to buying a lot of
good dairy cows, it wouldn't be un-
like him to get these to consume his
surplus velvet beans, hay, fodder ETC.,
and incidentally some of these won
derful sweet potatoes.
Mr.. Fairey is a banker too, being
cashier of the oldest banking insti-
tuition in the county, and with all OF
his business interests he enjoys a
little sport, football, baseball and the
like, but to follow pack of frenzied
hounds in a, fox chase is his chief
delight. Why he even went to Cam
den after old Reynard last week and
in his enthusiasm over the prospec.
tive chase forgot his hunting license
until the game warden of the county
called his attention to the necessity
of having this little permit easily
accessible when called upon for it
At least this is told on him by Ed
Brockington and Harold Kinder.
