SOUTHERN COMMERCIAL CON

Amid ths wreck of characters end
ths eJa^K Of words In th® political
world It appears that prominent
Southern buidnsaa man ar® moving to
hold a Southern Commarclal Congress
In Albany, Go., to begin the 7th of
December. Mr. J. A. Itstjeman, secre
tary of ti.. jJbany committee, says:
The purpose of the Congress Is
to define t'.ie resources, developed
and undeveloped, of the Southern
f-'f.itc*. and to make authoritative
Otter men* upon the resource* and
neetM «»f the Kotithcrn Ktates, em

need of the Houth Is capital to vital

capital has caused tha loss to tha cot

Many of tha ablest, most progressive
and most valuable dtlaena, business
and professional men of New York.
Boston smd^Chleago are men who were
born and reared In the Roufh and went
In the North, the center of capital, to
seek a career. No less than 2.6(10,000
datives of the South have left tkat
section nine® tho Civil War and gono
to live claewhere. mainly In the North,
and of all the contributions that the
Booth has made to the financial and
commercial supremacy of the North,
thla population has been the most vab
■able to the North and the moat costly
to tie South. If the South should he
oomo ns greet a centef of Industry se
tbe North and West* that emigration
would cease and the tide would turn
the other way.
"The South, as we have observed,
needs capital, and something must be
done to attract U. Judging from the
results of the last primary election In
Oeorgln and the character of the tnan
selected for Governor of that State, It
would appear that ths people of the
Empire State of the South have con
eluded that legislative hostility to ral)
roads and capital does not pay; and
that thoy prefer to pursue In the fu
ture such a conservative course aa will
enoourage railroad building and other
toSastrtee. There can be no doubt that
the flower of the thoughtful business
people are of thla way of thinking,
and that the time la now at hand In all
dm States when hostility to railroads

essential to political preferment and
the favor of the voting people.
•The progress of the South since
11*0 has been almost fabulous, and yet

This !s $300,000,000 mere than all the

The democratic party can well af-
B rd to apis-al fmtn the Intemperate
h.nauitgc of Mr. Roosevelt to the cold
record of history. In on effort to In
Jure Mr. Oln«*y the President says
"While Mr. olney wae attorney-
general no cases whatever were
brought, under the anti-trust law,
iigulmt combinations of capital, the
only new case* which he brought ba-
Iiik directed Hgnlnxt combinations
workingmen. Luring that entire
ministration the only cases brought
iKitlnst combinations of cnpltal^und'
t».c rmtl-truMt net were four hi nun
in r, two of which were unsuccessful,
one of the other two being the
which was decided by Judge Taft In
favor of the Government."
A reply hy Attorney-acneral Moody
to n resolution of Inquiry from
■.teimte shows that the suits under the
anti trust law numbered seven under
llnrrlson. nine under Cleveland (aec
on.I u-rm), three under McKinley and
fifteen under Roosevelt whose term
had expired considerably over four
venrs. one of tic cases credited to
tht Harrison administration was that
against the flugar Trust, tha bill in
which was tiled under Harrison, but
the trials were under Cleveland. O'
indictments under ths Interstate com
mere* law there were SS under liar-
rlson. 10 under Cleveland, 31 under
McKinley and Just 6 under noosevelt.
of which 6 were nol proasnd and one
was dismissed, while under Cleveland
there were alx convictions.
Mr. Olnev was nttorney-gcneral at
the - time of the Debs riots, lit did
proceed against Debs and his asso
elates under tho Sherman law.

Cleveland and Olney or of Debs? If
the Utter, let him frankly avow It. If
the former, he I* meanly trying to
dlcredlt the former attorney-general
for action In upholding the rights of
the Federal tJovaromrnt. for which the
country will ever hold him and Presl
dent Cleveland In the highest honor.
The President auppresses the fact
that Mr. Olney had a Republican pre-
cedent for Invoking the Bherman law
against a labor union when It was In
terfering with tnterstata and foreign
commerce. Under the Harrison ad
ministration a bill was AIM November
1«. 1093, to restrain the Working-
men's Amalgamated Council of Now
Orleans from Interfering with Inter
state and foreign commerce In viola
tion of the antt-truat law. Tho In-
lunrtlon was granted, and the art was
held to applv to combination* of la

who have expressed th# wish for a copy,
end It Is here given:
Can I live and bs a Christian?
On the railroad with Its care
With Its thousand frets and worries.
Aggravations hers and there.
Can I live nnd be a Christian?
With so much to make ma sad.
Can I keep my heart from sinning?
can live and lie a Christian.
Working on th# railroad still.
If mv purpose la to follow
Jesus who won crucified,
can still live and be faithful
Though I may be sorely tried.
Rut 'tta hard to have no Babbath,
God's appointed day for rest.
Yet lie put ms on the railroad.
And he knoweth what Is best
can tell you why He did It.
For Ills sake 1 will suffer lo**.
And some day mid awful crashing*.
Home stout-hearted engineer.
Or maybe a brave conductor.
Or a hero at the brake.
May need my hurried whisper.
Father save for Jesus' sake.

■A Mistaken'
Idea
Perhaps yon have an idea that in order to have a
bank account yon must have a large sum to deposit;
that a bank doesn't care to bother with small accounts.
This is not true of the “Fourth.” This hank wel
comes new aecounts, no matter how small, nnd extends
the same courtesy nnd service to small depositors ns to
large ones.
Let ns prove it to you.
