The Chicago men assert that the Southeastern tour marks the high tide oT success of nil the similar trips ever rnnde by the association, which has by the work of similar delegations covered all of the United States and Canada. The present tour is the first ever made to the Southeastern states, where there has been put at thir oom mand every possible Hgencv for a rapid-fire tour of investigation of the commercial, industrial, educational and social activities which tho various sections possess. The tourists report finding mills and factories running night and day, quarrying, mining and milling Indus tries greater In extent than they had imagined were in existence, great water powers harnessed and furnish ing light, heat and power for the cities and for most complete tnterur ban transportation systems, metropol itan stores with large and up-to-date stocks such as would do Justice to Northern cities of three and four times their population; and back of all these an energetic, aggressive, wide nwake and united citizenship i taking advantage of every opportun ity Tor development and progress The delegation with their tour only partly completed, appears of the unan imous belief that the South today is the most important and prosperous territory of its population in the country.

So many evidences of progress and prosperity are to be seen on evedy hand, that even the most sanguine of us are forced to marvel at what we have scon. Capl tal which has been slow in coming to the South will now, with its re sources so much better understood, flow to it naturally and its future de velopment will be made with much greater speed than even the progress oT the last decade has evinced.

Business men may differ as widely as they please on subjects which are not commercial in their character, but there can be little division of opinion on theso matters which arc purely commercial in their nature. There is, threfore, no impediment to a non political, co-operative effort to safe guard the business interests against legislation which is inimical to such interests and not beneficial to the in terests of the general citizenship of the country. “We hope through the acquaint ances we make on this tour that tho day will be brought nearer when the various communities of the United States can successfully co-operate in defense of the business Interests of the country', and it is with this pur pose in view that this fflp is being made. We have found the communi ties visited ready to meet us more than half way in the matter of co operation for mutual protection against ill-inlormed legislation, and we have high hopes that the day is not far distant when from one coast to the other, and from Canada to the Gulf, there will be found a spirit of co-operation between the business men of our nation which can have but one result and that it the prevention of the enactment of legislation not calculated to benefit the general pub lic, and by no mans calculated to ad vance the Interests of commerce and indusrty." . The Chicago business men are here from 6 a. m. Saturday until 12 o’clock, noon, Sunday.
