Gmn Arir Freight Congestion in Florida; Re- The Existing Immigration Law and port Board of Trade Committee. the Rights of States. The committee on the freight congestion situation, appointed by the Jacksonville Board of Trade, made its final report to * that body at its regular meeting this week The report in full was as follows: Jacksonville, Fla., March 8, 1907. To the Officers and Members of the Jackson- ville Board of Trade: We, the undersigned committee on freight congestion, appointed by your body, in December last, beg leave to make this our final report: When the committee made report in December, and was continued, it appointed a sub-committee, consisting of a chairman, and Messrs. Bours, Bowen and Haines; and also secured the services of Mr. P. E. Peck as special agent for the committee, to give his full time and attention to the investigation of complaints and tracing and placing the cars. This sub-committee has met since that time, nearly every day, upward of fifty meetings having been held, occupying from one to three hours. The sub-committee has also, on various occasions, spent two or three hours in the freight yards of all lines entering Jacksonville, investigating the conditions and making suggestions for the improvement of the service. Nearly two hundred complaints of consignees have been investigated, resulting in the locat- ing and placing of delayed freights. In nearly every instance the desired result has been obtained in not exceeding 14 hours, showing that when special attention was paid to complaints, good results fol- lowed. Probed Deeply. At the same time, the committee did not confine its work to individual cases, but looked very deeply into the causes of the general bad conditions of trans- portation service in this city. We have had the co-operation and support of the railroad companies, and in nearly every instance where weak points were discov- ered and pointed out to them, the neces- sary remedy has been applied. There has been a marked improvement in the way that business has been transacted in the local f: eight offices, and as a rule, there is more clerical help employed, and the * help is of a more efficient character. The same remark applies to the yard forces. The railroad companies have made some changes in the heads of departments, where they deemed it necessary to make them, and the results seem to justify the changes. We have succeeded in obtaining a daily interchange of solid cars between all lines in Jacksonville. which will help to pre- vent a congestion that we suffered from during the last few months. Great Improvement. We report the conditions of the Atlan- tic Coast Line yards, freight warehouses and offices, as being greatly improved for the better, and the indications are that the present good condition will be main. tainted. With regard to the Seaboard Air Line yards, the condition is not as good as we would like to make as our final report, for the reason that this line's service only really got into bad shape in the past four or five weeks; but changes that have been made within the last week or ten days will, in our opinion, result in placing the Seaboard Air Line in as good condition as the other lines within a very short time. The Seaboard Air Line is increasing its terminal facilities here, as rapidly as pos- sible, and in a short time, will have ample room for storage of cars and freight. Urged Improvement. With regard to the Southern and Geor- gia Southern and Florida terminal facili- ties: We have urged these companies to commence operations at once upon the construction of their new freight ware- houses on the corner of Market and Bay, as their present warehouse facilities are not at all adequate to the increasing busi- ness being done. At the present time they are occupying two temporary wooden shacks, which were built immediately after the fire on Adams and Marsh, and which, at any time may be ordered removed by the city authorities as they are a menace to the surrounding neighborhood, as well as to the patrons of the line. The Atlantic Coast Line's new yards at Grand Crossing, afford that line ample fa- cilities for storage cars, and preparations are now being actively made for the con- struction of large warehouses on West Bay street, near the Union depot, which will.be of great value to the railroad com- panies and the public. We desire to sound a warning of con- gestion troubles to come in the lumber ex- porting business of this city, and this can only be avoided in the near future by the exporters promptly unloading cars on arrival in Jacksonville, which we trust they will do, and thus prevent a repetition of the troubles we had in this line of busi- ness last fall. Many Cars Here. At the present time tuere are a large number of cars in Jacksonville, loaded with lumber, and the number is daily 'in- creasing; but the exporters are not un- loading as quickly as they should. We understand that this is caused by the ab- sence of schooners in which to load the lumber; but we are told that there are a number of vessels now en route to the port of Jacksonville, which should relieve the situation; but, in the absence of suf- ficient number of vessels to move the lum- ber from this port, it will be necessary that the exporters unload the cars on the docks, and release the empties, in order that the mills may be supplied with cars. We have obtained from the Atlantic Coast Line, Seaboard Air Line and St. Johns River Terminal Companies, blue After all it seems that the recent immi- gration ruling on the existing law is not going to affect the right of States in se- curing desirable alien immigrants, as the following dispatch from Washington will demonstrate: Washington, March l.-South Carolina officials and others interested in the atti- tude of the administration toward assisted immigration, held a conference today with President Roosevelt and Attorney General Bonaparte at the White House, and with Secretary Straus at the department of commerce and labor. The result of the conferences witl the president Mr. Bona- parte, according to statements made by former Governor D. C. Heyward, and Com- missioner of Immigration Watson, of South Carolina, was entirely satisfactory to all concerned, and the opinion was ex- pressed by Mr. Heyward that according to the explanations made by the govern- ment officers, the new immigration law will not deprive the States of any rights conferred by former laws which may not have been repealed or by the existing law. Satisfactory Talk. Early in the day lessrs. Heyward and Watson had a brief conference with the president. This was followed late.in the afternoon by a second meeting, at which in addition to those named, there were present Attorney General Bonaparte, R. G. Rhett, mayor of Charleston, and Thom- as Parker, the chairman of the immigra- tion committee of the South Carolina Manufacturers' Association. At its con- elusion the attorney general and his vis- itors said the conference had been a sat- isfactory one. Today's conferences grew out of a re- quest to that made by Heyward, who, with Mr. Watson, is about to start for Eurole to make an effort to secure tlhe permanent establishment of the line of steamers which the North German Lloyd, Steamship Company has been operating to Charleston, with a view to turning the tide of immigration southward. The opin- ion of Attorney General Bonaparte, ren- dered last week on the immigration ques- tion. they feared was calculated to upset their plans, and the former requested that all action in accordance with the attor- ney general's opinion be held in abeyance until a meeting could be held. At the meeting today the entire matter was re- viewed carefully, and Mr. Bonaparte ex- prints, showing the present and prospee- tive freight yards in this city, together with the total track capacity for ears. A\e 'econmmend hat these blue prints be framed and hung in the board of trade r(oms, for the information of our mem- bers. Permanent Committee. The shippers and receivers of freight in this city have greatly appreciated the plained the exact meaning of his opinion. Mr. Heyward and Mr. Watson explained that the State did not wish to do anything not absolutely legal in securing immigrants needed in South Carolina. "'The result," said Mr. Watson tonight, "is satisfactory to all. We do not feel that the movement for immigration to the South will be retarded in any way as a result of the attitude of the administra- tion and 1 am sure that the labor inter- ests will not only not be injured in any way but will be benefited." Heyward Talks Straight Former Gov. Heyward said: "The construction of the law as given by the attorney general today is absolute- ly satisfactory to the movement for immi- gration to the South. It has never been the purpose of this movement to bring in contract or cheap labor. The question of the rights and power of the State as to prepayment of the passages of immigrants will doubtless be set forth later by the attorney generaL It seems certain that the new law will not deprive the States of any rights conferred by the former or pres- ent laws. I was very much gratified at the interest shown by the president and al Ithe officials in our movement to up- build the South on practical lines and I feel that they all now have a clearer idea of its economic value to the entire coun- try." Mr. Watson will sail for Bremen on his official mission tomorrow. Mr. Heyward, who is prevented from accompanying him by the serious illness of his wife, will join Mr. Watson later. P. H. Gadsden, representing the mayor and commercial interests of Charleston, will accompany Mr. Watson tomorrow. The South Carolinians express the opin- ion that it will not be necessary to resort to the expedient of assisting immigrants to come south to the extent of more than three or four ship loads. After the line to Charleston is permanently established there and the immigration station author- ized by the last congress established, they say immigration will drift to Charleston just as naturally as it does to the North- ern States, and be distributed to the States further south. Tomorrow night the president will hold a conference with Attorney General Bona- parte, Commissioner Straus, labor leaders and Southern men interested, on the im- migration question. work of thick committee and its special agent, and many have expressed the idea that it has proved of so great value as to make the establishment of a permanent freight service committee, under the aus- pices of this board, worthy of your careful consideration;. and we heartily recommend such a course.

New Orleans, March 15.-An appeal to all southerners to stand by the railroads for the sake of the South was made to- night by W. W. Finley, president of the Southern Railway, at a business banquet tendered him here. He said in part: If the railways of the South are to lie brought up to the standard required by the expanding business of Southern mlcl- uunities, the people of the South mnust be actuated by the same spirit of co-opera- tion they showed in the early days of railway building, when comunitinities vied with each other in otfering inducements for construction. The day for govern- mental and municipal financial aid for rail- way lines has passed and the many ntil- lions of dollars that wil lie required for additional track capacity and terminal facilities must be obtained from private investors. "'The greater part of the money must be borrowed. "Identitied during most of nm business career with railways of tile South, I know the resources of its railways will be taxeAi to thle utmost to provide the additional facilities that will be requited. The pro- vision of these facilities at the earliest possible date is of incalculably more im- sortance to the South than any possible rate reduction or any proposition to penal- ize roads for failure to perform services which are beyond their present capacity. "*I Ielieve that it is to the interest .f the railways and the people that a spirit of harmony and just dealing he fostered." G. M. Davis & Son Burned Out. T'ie Record learns with regret of the destruction by fire of the magnificent plant of G. M. Davis & Son at Palatka. This factory for the manufacture of cy- press tanks, tubs, buckets. etc.. was one of the largest industries in the State. and had built up a business reaching every section of this country. The plant was partially insure 1. Of course tie plant will be re- built, larger and mole complete than eter, andl ;. Davis & Son will continue to supply tile trade with their well known products.

PRICES. SOperator's Tool Company, Green Cove Springs, Fla. President Roosevelt Appealed to in "Threatened Disaster" in Financial World. Washington, March 14.-For more than same opinion. The president is fortifying forty-eight hours the \l white House and himself with regard to all the facts the treasury department have been flooded intestate Commerce Commission has dis- closed during its various investigations. with appeals for President KRoseielt a Ind view of this way, he will be able to Secretary Cortelyou to take some action meet argument with argument and fact to avert the "threatened disaster" in the with fact. financial world. It can be stated authori- tatively that President Roosevelt will not change his attitude toward the railroads, though it is admitted that the administra- tion has no intention of entering on an extremely radical attack on the railway corporations. While it is known that the visit of J. Pierpont Morgan to the White House last Monday night to induce the president to issue a reassuring statement to the country in regard to the adminis- tration's attitude toward the railroads, and the apparent failure of the financier's appeal, has had much todo with the panic conditions that swept over Wall Street today. President hoosevelt has repeatedly said that he is not an enemy of the rail- roads and that those that obey the laws have nothing to fear from the govern- ment. While- it has not been definitely decided the president may issue a state- ment outlining his attitude after he has conferred with Presidents McCrea, New- man, Mellen and Hughitt. The conference with the four railroad magnates, which was granted by the presi- dent at the earnest request of Mr. Mor- gan, will be held the early part of next week. It is understood by those close to the president that the railway officials will urge Mr. Roosevelt to take some steps to "allay the public anxiety now threat- ening to obstruct railroad investments and construction and as to the relations be- tween the railroads and the government." Since Mr. Morgan's visit to the White House the president has held numerous conferences with Chairman Knapp andl members of the Interstate Commerce Com- mission in order that he may be in a bet- ter position to present the administration's side of the question when he meets the railroad presidents next week. The ad- ministration is firmly convinced that the unrest in financial circles has been brought on by the arguments advanced by the railroad interests in trying to prevent "hostile legislation" in the various States and not by the attitude that the federal government has taken to enforce the laws relating to the common carriers. E. H. Harrimah, when he was inthis city recent- ly, and President X. B. Stickney, of the Chicago Great W'esti. who called at the White Ho,- today, ve expressed the President's Views. The president, it is known, takes the same position assumed when he sent his message to congress last December and called attention to the fact that during the last five months-within which the new law was operate at that time-"that railroads have shown increased earnings and some of them unusual dividends." This the president believes refutes the claims of the railroads at the time that the new law will ruin them and emphasizes the fact that rate legislation either by federal or State government is not the cause of the present panic conditions. The president too, has referred significantly to another part of his message in which he said, "it must not be supposed, however, that with the passage of these laws, it will be possible to stop progress along the line of increasing the power of the national government over the use of capital in in- terstate commerce." In pointing out these and other passages from the recent message to those with whom he has talked, the president has in- dicated that he has taken no backward steps in his viewse as to the advisability of making the regulations and laws still 'stronger along certain lines. Administration Not Responsible. Although believing that the conditions in New York are due to nothing for which the administration is responsible, the pres- ident believes lie has done everything that e< nsistently can be done to give relief to the money market. The order issued by Secretary Cortelyou followed by the order of today prevents the withdrawal of large sums belonging to the government and pro- vides the way for the use of additional funds in Wall street. The first order put a quietus on the rumor that the treasury was to immediately withdraw the addi- tional deposits put in the banks last Octo- her, amounting to $30.000,000. Today Mr. Cortilyou issued an order that the $18,000,- 000 of additional currency taken out by the national banks could be held by them, without substituting federal for the State and other bonds with which it is now se- cured. This, it is pointed out, will prevent a sharp demand for government bonds for leplisit as security. Another step which will put about one million dollars a day in the circulation is P EC AN S Analvze te word. permanent Profits Economy of care Certainty of results Annual crops Non-perishable product Superior to all nuts.

Washington, March .-fficial denial was given at the White House today to intimations that the president had re- quested the governors of States before whose legislatures railroad legislation is pending to come to Washington for con- sultation with him as to uniformity on that question. The name of Gov. Dineen, of Illinois, has been mentioned in that connection. In company with Attorney General Stead, of Illinois, he will confer with the president. His coming to Washington is at the request of the president, and while it is stated that the visit has to do with another matter entirely, it is believed that questions affecing railroads may come up for consideration. The impression prevails that the testimony of E. H. Harriman, in the hearing of the Interstate Commerce Commission in New York regarding the Chicago and Alton transaction may be brought to the attention of the president byq Gov. Dineen and Mr. Stead, as it is understood that the president is anxious for information regarding any contem- plated action by the Illinois officials in the matter. No time has yet been fixed for the con- ference for the four railroad presidents named by J. P. Morgan upon the occasion of his visit to Washington Monday night last. It is believed however, that before the conference is held, Presidents McCrea, Newman, Mellen and Hughitt will meet and map out their course of procedure. John D. Crimmins, of New York, who is on his way home from the South, had a talk with the president today. He de- clined to state the nature of his call. Philadelphia Break. Philadelphia, March 14.-There was .a violent break on the Philadelphia stock ex- change today following the panic in New York. Although the sales were not heavy, prices crumbled, and at the close of the market, appeared to be in a semi-demoral- ized condition Reading led the decline, the price for that stock following the New York figures. United Gas Improvement fell f-om 88 to 80%2; Cambria Steel from .3"s. to 32%; Electric Storage from 54 to 47%: lehigh Valley from 63 to 57; Lehigh Navigation from 83 to 80, and others fell from 1 to 3 points. The close was almost at bottom figures. The prices quoted for some stocks are the lowest they sold in several years. Conference with Magnates. New York, March 14.-It was stated in New York railroad circles tonight that the presidents of several trunk line roads will probably deddl toPtorlow pon their plans for a trip to Washington to consider the situation with President Roosevelt. Presi- dent McRea, of the Pennsylvania, and President Mellon, of the New York, New Haven and Hartford, were in New York today but returned to their homes. Presi- dent Hughitt, of the Northwestern, is in Chicago, but is expected to leave for New York some time tomorrow. President New- man, of the New York Central, has not yet gone to Washington. It was said that there had been an interchange of com- munications between the presidents rela- tive to the trip and that though it was not decided upon positively, probably they would see the president. President Roosevelt, it was said, has not sent a formal invitation and there seemed to be some doubt as to whether to expect one. Mr. Morgan it was stated had not made the point quite clear to them before leav- ing for Europe. Promptly Provided Margin. New York, March 14.-"The noteworthy feature of the Wall street situation nevt to th'e decline itself," said F. A. Vander- lip, head of the National City Bank today, "has been the resources shown by the holders of stocks in promptly providing margins. The banking position tonight is remarkable in the fact that the call for margins has been met with promptness by practically every borrower. The de- cline, therefore, would not seem to be the result either of a stringency in money or an impossibility to obtain credit, because in spite of the great depreciation in prices borrowers are able to keep margins good. Demoralization has been confined to the stock market. eW see no signs of it ex- tending elsewhere. "The action of the secretary of the treasury is admirable and conservative. Certainly no one can criticize it, and the measure of relief which it offers, will oe considerable, both in a sentimental and actual way." Washington, March 14.-Secretary of the Treasury Cortelyou today made the following announcement: "The secretary of the treasury has this day announced that any bank that in- creased its circulation under the terms of the department's announcement of Octo- Ier 22, 1906, and was required thereby to retire the same during the months of March and August, may retain said addi- tional circulation upon due notification to the comptroller of the currency of its de- sire to do so, without change as to secu- rities fo- public deposits until further no- tice. But those banks desiring to retire their additional circulation obtained in thll way will be required to withdraw the 'tate. municipal and railroad bonds now lodged with the treasurer of the United States as securities for public deposits and substitute the bonds released by reason of the retirement of their additional cir- culation.

The secretary of the treasury has also issued a circular announcing that he will redeem, with interest to July 1, the date of their maturity, any registered and cou- pon bonds of the 4 per cent funded loan of 1907 to an amount not exceeding $25,- 000,000. The bonds may be presented at once for redemption, and the registered bonds should be duly assigned to the sec- retary of the treasury. A copy of this circular will be mailed to dach owner of registered bonds. "The circular of February 11, 1907, pro- viding for the purchase of these bonds at 1011/, flat, has been rescinded." Under these announcements and that which mad made yesterday about $46,000,- 000 will be allowed to remain in ciroula- tion that otherwise would have been called itno the treasury. Of this amount $30,- 000,000 represents public debts temporarily placed in the banks last fall under agree- ment that they should be returned to the treasury subsequent to February 1, 1907, and $16,000,000 relates to additional cir- culation engaged for retirement. These amounts, together with the $25,00,000 United States 4 per cent bonds, which the secretary today offered to redeem, make a total of $71,000,000 either left with the will now receive the customs collections in the same manner that internal revenue and miscellaneous receipts have hitherto been deposited with them. That porticin of the secretary's announcement which re- lates to the redemption of the 4 per cent bonds of 1907 at a price equal to the principal and interest to maturity. is the measure intended by the secretary as the principal source of relief to the money market. MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP IN SOUTH- ERN CITIES. In view of the wide-spread interest in the question of municipal ownership of public utilities, especially in such as water works, gas and electric lighting plants, The Tradesman has made an investigation into the operation of such plants by cities in the South which own and operate them u:ller municipal control. In this investigation tue views of mayors of several cities have been obtained on this subject, coupled with the broader scope of municipal ownership of electric car lines, and these views are likewise given herewith and speak for themselves. No attempt has been made to obtain ex- p sessions for or against the general prop- osition of municipal ownership of public utilities. and while there has been a unani- mous opinion in the matter of cities own- hanks or offered to be placed with them ing and operating their water and lighting as the result of the redemption of the 4 systems, there appears equally as unani per cent bonds. mcuse a sentiment against municipal own- The first paragraph of the above an- ership of street railways, possibly due to nouncement relates to the offer made by the fact that no such examples exist as Secretary Shaw last October to bring to the operation of these enterprises by about some degree of elasticity in national cities as are found in the other cases.

Inustra Reced Publ il Ces C& FLORIDA PRESS ASSOCIATION PASS RESOLUTIONS ON PEONAGE ARTICLES. Key West, March 9.-The first and really the moat important resolution affecting the whole State of Florida introduced and considered at the business session of the Florida Press Association were relative to the false and defamatory articles concern- ing alleged peonage in Florida that have been published in the Cosmopolitan Maga- ine and certain newspapers of New York city. The resolutions which follow, were intro- duced by Mr. L. J. Brumby, of Ocala, edi- tor and proprietor of the Florida Fruit and Truck Grower, and aroused great in- terest. In moving their adoption Mr. Brumby made a strong and able address in which he denounced in no uncertain terms the articles referred to. Quite a number of members of the asso- elation endorsed the resolutions in speeches following Mr. Brumby and upon the re- quest of the introducer the resolution* were then referred to the committee on resolutions, according to the rules of the association. Following this action, in the course of Iis address on immigration. Mr. Edwin Brobston, of Jacksonville, referred to tlhe recent prosecution of F. J. O'Hara on peon- age charges and told of affidavits made by two of the jurors before whom the O'Hara case was tried in which the jurors de- nounce1 as unqualifiedly false the state- ment published in pamphlet form by Hon. CUiarles W. Russell, assistant attorney general of the United States, who conduct- ed the peonage prosecution. The original resolution introduced by Mr. Brumby follows: Whe eas, A number of magazines and papers published in the North have con- tained sensational articles in reference to the State of Florida, her industries and her citizens, charging restraint of personal liberty, in violation of the peonage laws, and, Whereas, These charges are untrue and are working irreparable injury to employ- ers who at the instance of unworthy and irresponsible employes are threatened with and subjected to prosecution for peonage, therefore, Be it resolved, That it is the sense of this association: First. That the peonage statute be re- pealed; Second. That until it is repealed its en- forcement should be characterized by the utmost conservatism. Third. That the press of the State should unite in a vigorous effort to refute the published slanders against this State in reference to renditions of peonage which have either been grossly exaggerated or which are wholly untrue. Mr. Brumby explained fully in his re- marks that it was not so much the ques- tion of the repealing of a criminal statute but contended, in view of different condi- tions prevailing in different States, that they themselves were best able to cope with the conditions involved and could enact and enforce such legislation as would afford protection to employee and em- ployer alike. THE MUCK-RAKERS. Hen. Frank Clark's Speech Delivered in Congress on "Yellow Journalim's" Fabrications. Following is the speech delivered in congress by Representative Frank Clark on the Cosmopolitan Magazine calumny of Florida: Mr. Speaker: To deal with a "muck- raker" is always unpleasant. It is at no tin-e agreeable to engage in disputation with that product of our present day civ- ilization known as "yellow journalism," which for a few pennies and anopportun- ity to keep in the limelight, does not hesi- tate to calumniate an entire community, It is disagreeable because of the fact that the creature in question is generally so lacking in character and so bereft of the essential attributes of real manhood, that he will resort to any and every form of falsehood to bolster up his original libel. In submitting to this house and to the American people the few remarks that I shall make upon the subject of "Peonage in Florida" as treated in a recent article in the Cosmopolitan Magazine for March, 1907, and partly copied in the New York Evening Journal of February 25th. 1907, I know that I shall bring down on my humble self the relentless fury of the owner of those publications who happens to be a member of this body, but who, I do not believe, has occupied his seat for ten full days during the entire life of the 59th congress. But, be that as it may, Mr. Speaker, I would he unworthy of the high and honorable position I hold if I should silently sit here and permit a member if this body. either from his place on this floor or through the columns of his publi- cations, to slander and n:align my people. I represent in this great deliberative as- sembly a constituency which is just as honest, just as intelligent, just as patri- otic, just as moral, just as law-abiding, just as liberty-loving, and just as God- fearing as any people beneath the shining canopy of heaven. There is hardly a State in all the Union that has not furnished citizens for the great district which I have the honor to represent here, and if you desire to find the robust American citizen in his fullest development, just join me in a journey over the second congressional district of Florida. Inustice and wrong cannot flourish among such a people, and while I feel that no defense against the attacks of this man through his paid hire- lings is really necessary, yet I desire to call attention to some of the falsehoods contained in the article referred to. The article seems to have been written by one Richard Barry. I do not know this man Barry, and I must confess that I never heard of him before. This may be my misfortune, but without having seen the man, I am constrained to say that he has either been easily duped by some designing person, or else he is a right considerable lier himself. I shall confine my remarks to my own district, only mentioning the fact that the conviction of officers of the Jackson Lum- ber Company, of Pensacola, in the dis- trict of my colleague (Mr. Lamar) was held in the court presided over by Charles Swayne, whose record as a judge is known of all men. What Barry Says. Here is what this man Barry says: "It was all proved incontestably in the courts that the men were enticed to their work by glowing and fraudulent representations; that once on the job they were held to it by threats; that when a few of spirit rebelled and tried to run away they were intimidated with firearms; that when some finally did get away they were tracked with hounds and brought back at the point of a pistol; that when the law intervened in the person of the local justice and tried to set them free they were shown to 'e in debt to their employers and the strenuous incident of their keep justified on the score of an ancient statute which gave a debtor's lody to the creditor until tne debt was satisfied." There is no such statute in Florida as permits a creditor to hold the debtor's body until the debt is satisfied. This was a deliberate and unqualified falsehood on the part of the writer, and the fact that he did not take the time to examine the statue law of he State is evidence of the recklessness with which he libels a whole people. Adept in Libel. Again I ask you to listen to the words of this adept in the art of libel: "A dozen tramp immigrants ran away from the O'Hara camp at Buafflo Bluff and startled tie inhabitants of Palatka with their story of frightful wrongs." The O'Hara camp he refers to is in my district, and the head of the firm operating it is Mr. F. J. O'Hara, a citizen of charac- ter and standing in the State of Florida. Mr. O'Hara and his business associates were indicted for peonage at Jacksonville by the grand jury of the United States court for the southern district of Florida. They were put upon trial last December. and after weeks spent in taking testimony tl e case was submitted to the jury, and a r !i' of "not guilty" promptly returned.

JACk Sr iaVIIURE RLeA after several more weeks spent in taking testimony the second jury promptly re- turned a verdict of "not guilty." This when he penned his infamous libel against our people that O'Hara and his associates had been vindicated by two different juries in the federal court at Jacksonville, yet in the face of this he holds up 0'Hara and his associates to the whole world as -le- mons in human form. We sre blessed in the southern district of Florida with a pure and a just judge. I have known Judge James W. Locke for many years, and no lpan ever wore the ermine who was morn honest, fair and just than he. We also have an able, fearless, honest dis- trict attorney, and with the machinery of the law in such hands, the innocent will not suffer. I say the innocent will not suffer, Mr. Speaker, but when I say that The Wealth of the Old Families. Often disappeared, evaporated, and the new generation was left but one or two things of real value. Among these valu- ables (in 99 cases out of a hundred) was a chest of old silver, the moat useful and beautiful heirloom that the young genera- tion treasured. Have you such a treasure to hand down to your heirs? If not, now is the time to start gathering it. If you are interested, come down and let us show you something in that line that is WORTH HAVING NOW and which will be highly treasured by your sons and daughters. R. J. 3J.IE COMPANY, 15 W.

Writes all Forms of Life and En- ONE MILLION DOLLARS dowment Insurance. I mean that these upright officials will got permit an innocent man .to suffer by reason df an unjust conviction, but they will suffer, as O'Hara and his associates have suffered in loss of time and money in making defense against these false and outrageous accusations, as well as suffer- ing the humiliation of criminal prosecu- tions. Mr. O'Hara is not a wealthy man, and my information is that in protecting his honor and his liberty in the two cases upon which he has already been tried and acquitted he has had to expend about $15,000 of his earnings. If his persecution is to be continued, and he is to be tried on the remaining indictments which stand against him, the probability is that while he will walk forth from the federal court a free man, he will be bankrupted by these infamous proceedings. Strange Inluence. There is some strange but powerful in- fluence behind these cases. What is it? \,hy should the machinery of the law in this great government of ours be used to hound down and bankrupt honorable, law-abiding citizens? Two different juries, composed of twenty-four good and lawful men, under the sanction of their solemn oaths as jurors, after listening to all the testimony, the argument of counsel and the charge of the court, have declared to ad the world that O'Hara and his asso- ciates were not guilty as charged, yet we are told it is the purpose of Assistant At- torney General Russell and his assistant, one Mrs. Quackenbos, to again put these people on trial on other indictments, mak- ing substantially the same charges as those of which they have been acquitted. Female Assitant. This assistant attorney-general and his female assistant certainly know that these people are not guilty as charged; thev know that no honest jury will convi.-t them; they know that it is their sworn duty to protect the innocent; they know that the prosecution of the citizen should not be allowed to sink into a persecution; they ought to know that when a prosecu- tion for alleged crime is persisted in when its only effect is to bankrupt innocent people, the government is dishonored and the pure stream of justice polluted. How many times can a citizen be put in jeop- ardy upon the same charge? I have al- ways been taught that only once could a citizen under our benign form of govern- ment, be put in joepardy on a particular charge, yet we find these extremely zeal- ous officials, one of them a female lawyer from New York (and I understand from the East Side) forcing defendants to trial on indictment after indictment. charging practically the same offense and using substantially the same set of witnesses fo establish identically the same state of facts. I suppose, Mr. Speaker, that this female lawyer from the East Side, who seers to be the centr lling fcrce in these prosecutions, gets around this question of former jeopardy upon her theory that our people are a barbarous tribe, to whom the ordinary principles of law do n:t apply. She has come from the slums of the East Side of New York to prosecute correct ideas into the heads of our benighted peo- (Continued on page 15.)

The hon- orable attorney-general of the United SLates, in his lengthy letter just read to the house by the clerk, does not tell us, and he evades the question of the cost to the government of these prosecutions for peonage which I sought in my resolution. Phianthropic Person. He also seeks to convey the impression t.at this Mrs. Quackenbos is a very phi- lanthropic person, and that she is .o moved by pity for persons held in slavery S in Florida that she is devoting her time and means as a gratuity for their libera- tion. But the honorable attorney-general will not say what salary she is receiving, although he does admit in the face of his statement as to ner great work of charity, that she does get a salary from the gov- ernment. How much does she get? The attorney-general says, "The understand- ing of the department being that her com- pensation amounts only to what she is obliged to pay a competent person for taking her place in the office she has es- tablished as above described, her own ser- vices being rendered gratuitously." Now, Mr. Speaker, it seems to me it would have been an easy thing for the attorney-gen- eral to have told us how much money lie was allowing this woman lawyer. Why evade it? Nobody who ever saw this fe- male lawyer believes for one moment that she is working for nothing. No one be- lieves she is working for actual expenses only. Why keep the amount she receives from the government a secret? Is any one else paying for her services? Is she employed and paid by some one other than the government ? If so, who is it? Unfouded Charges. And again I ask, Mr. Speaker, why are our people being so relentlessly pursued in the courts on these unfounded charges? What is the purpose? Is some one using the courts and the press for the purpose of keeping immigrants from the State of Florida? We have within the State of Florida millions of acres of rich, unocc i- pied lands that can be had by actual bona fide settlers at an extremely low figure per acre; the honest industrious farmer within a very few years can reach a state of independence by tilling a few acres of our fertile lands; we need the honest in- dustrious immigrant to help us develop our wonderful tSate, and our people are now taking steps to acquaint the world with the splendid possibilities of Florida. Can it be that these prosecutions and these libelous stories have a common origin, and S that the object is to impress the prospec- tive citizen with the idea that life, liberty and property are not safe in Florida? Why, Mr. Speaker, there is no State in all this glorious Union that has within her borders a more law-abiding and justice- loving citizenship than you will find be- neath the clear blue skies of Florida. Churches of every denomination stand in every portion of our fair State, their tall spires pointing toward heaven in si- lent protest that we are a lawless people; on every hand can be seen a building erected with money appropriated from the taxes cheerfully paid by our people, and dedicated to the education of our youth in order to it them for the duties of eiti- aenship in a Christian State; that in spite of all the precaution taken there are oceas- ional violations of the law, no man willA M J O deny, but that our people wink at these violations and encourage a system of slav- e:- is as base a calumny as ever was LIFE AND 8AYINOS charged against any people and I hurl 't B aMl wilX hack in the teeth of our detractors as a A lk M1 II1 agents arMe coinig money.

Lo fICMON LS CO, ATLATA Picture of Governor Mr. Speaker, in the Cosmopolitan article, a picture of the governor of Florida is presented, and underneath the picture this "muck-iaker" states that our governor "is willing but powerless to put an end to peonage in his State." I wired the gover- nor to know if this man had correctly stated his position, and I am in receipt of the governor's answer, in which he flat- ly denies the assertion of this man, and on the contrary declares that the State of Florida is not only willing, but amply able to enforce all her laws. This man has not only slandered our people, but has delib- erately hisrepresented the honored chief executive of our State. Again, Mr. Speaker, this perverter of truth and wholesale "penny-a-line" slan- derer places in his libelous communication a picture of Mr. H. M. Flagler, a citizen of Florida, and who is president of the Florida East Coast Railway Company, and underneath that picture says: "Henry M. Flagler, of the Standard Oil clique, whose Slorida East Coast Railway is largely re- ponsible for slavery conditions in Florida." Mr. Flagler has builded about six hun- dred miles of railway within the State of Florida, and this system was built through a veritable wilderness; he has builded a system of hotels along this line of road, which has made the East Coast of Florida the Riviera of America. On the payrolls of his company in the State of Florida to- day are from eight to ten thousand em- ployees, and it is notorious in that State that no man was ever more kind to, or considerate of, those in his employ than is this man, Henry M. Flagler. His enter- prises in Florida have been the direct cause of providing happy and contented homes for fully fifty thousand people, and yet this miserable libel-peddler charges j..m with establishing a system of slavery in the State of Florida. Assault on Wealth. I thank God, Mr. Speaker, that He gave me the courage in this day of indiscrimi- nate and riotous assault on wealth, to deal justly with the rich man. This rich man is now, at the very moment when "yellow journalism" is painting him as a monster, at an expenditure of millions of dollars, engaged in the work of linking tue city of Key West to the mainland of Florida with bars of steel, and it will not be many months before, under the magic touch of his enterprise, the snort of the iron horse will be heard in the Island City of the Gulf. Well, Mr. Speaker, I have already taken up too much time with this creature Bar- ry, and the miserable publications which act as seer to carry away the "muk- rakings" of such as he. I will content my- self with attaching to my remarks clip- pings from certain newspapers in Florida, which show how our people regard the dirty attacks of this irresponsible scrib- bler.

New York, March 15.-McCrea, Mellen, Hughitt and Newman, the four railroad presidents for whose visit to the White House J. Pierpont Morgan arranged be- fore his departure for Europe, had a con- ference at the Grand Central Station in this city today. The whole situation was canvassed with great care, and it was finly decided not to go to Washington. I Is iuderstood the reason for this con- waol-was that the four gentlemen in- vlvgl did not feel that they had any proper mandate from the railroad corpo- ratiis to represent them. They felt that they could not assume the position of a ad oiaituted commission to formulate or -present the views of the hundreds of railrad companies which in turn are own- ed by millions of shareholders. They ree- ognised that the railroad managers of the United States are not themselves in per- feet accord, and that until some method could be adopted for securing a consensus Ot. opiunon, a. visit, to the president would be idle. At the conclusion of the confer- ence the various presidents left for theit homes. E. Harriman will leave this city to- f r Virinia to join his family at o0 e ietorts of that State. im ,- in making the announce- ment of his intention of taking the trip, said that he did not intend to stop at Washington, either on his way south or on his return. Regarding the Wall Street rumors that the control of Union Pacific had passed from his hands during the re- cent violent slump in the stock, Mr. Har- riman said that the report was quite in- correct. VALDOSTA TO NASHVILLE. Construction On the Gap in Georgia & Florida R. R. Is Being Pushed. Valdosta, Ga., March 11.-The final sur- veys of the gap in the Georgia and Florida Railroad, between this city and Nashville, have been made and the contract for con- struction will be let immediately. Secretary C. T. Williams, representing John S. Williams & Sons, the Richmond bankers, who are behind the road, has been here several days and has just spent some time along the line of road. He has been in this section of the South quite fre- quently during the last year or so, but lie did not know what strides are being made in this section until his recent leisurely trip over the road. He was ainazed at what oe saw. Speaking or the section of country, he said: "The great progress of the South is shown nowhere to better advantage than on the line from here to the Carolina bor- der. I have been amazed at the amount of building that is going on. The music of hammer and trowel is heard every- where and the chief difficulty is in getting men to do the work.

The INDUSTRIAL RECORD PUBLISHING COMPANY will issue at some date on or about the first of May next, a special number, to be entitled "The Florida Immigration Number." This edition will comprise something like 100 pages, carefully compiled and edited, and will be inter- estingly illustrated, all illustrations bearing upon the subject in question and designed for the purpose of attracting to the State of Florida desirable immigrants, both from the domestic immigrant centres and from foreign countries. It is the purpose of the Industrial Record Co. to issue an edition of fally 50,000 copies, and to circu- late it by its regular channels of circulation, augmented by the industrial departments of various railroads coming into the South, and through individual and corporate interests throughout Florida which may have their own individual sources of distribution. It will be mailed to all the newspapers of the country, with requests for favorable mention, and will be advertised through the leading magazines and farm jour- nals, to be sent upon request to interested parties who may have their attention thus directed to Florida and to its advantages from a farming, commercial and industrial standpoint. In order to attract the attention of those people who may not read the English language, an epitome of the entire edition will be printed in several languages, namely: German, Italian, Scandinavian, Rus- sian, and as many others as we may deem advisable. The edition, from an editorial and compilation standpoint will cover all subjects setting forth the ad- vantages of Florida to the capitalist, immigrant and the homeseeker, and will have a large number of special articles by well known authorities on the various phases of the immigrant situation. Among these will be articles by Commissioner Watson, of South Carolina, telling of his visits to Europe to get immi- grants and the establishment of an immigrant line between European points and South Carolina ports; an article setting forth the means used by other States in the South in inducing immigration-the officials, amount of money expended, etc.; an article covering the work being done by the railroads in inducing do- mestie immigration to the Southeastern States. The edition will also contain an article from the Gover- nor of the State of Florida upon the subject in question; from the Department of Agriculture, giving detailed and tabulated information as to Florida lands, advantages, opportunities, etc. It will contain among other things an article on the effort now being made (and we trust will have been accomplished by the date of the issue) for the establishment in Florida of a Department of Immigration, which matter will -. come before the approaching Florida Legislature. It will contain articles from the heads of various com- mercial organizations in Florida, notably from Mr. Rawls. President of the Florida State Board of Trade; r. Fuller, of the Tampa Board of Trade; Capt. Garner, of the Jacksonville Board of Trade; Col. W. P. Corbett, Chairman of the Immigration Committee of the Jacksonville Board of Tradi, Mr. Edwin Brob- ston, whose efforts are well known in immigration work, and others. It will contain in a concise, paragraph S form "one thousand facts about Florida" for the quick reader who wants to know all about the State be- fore visiting it. It will set forth the advantages of specific localities for specific purposes; for instance, the fruit section, the vegetable section, the general farming section, and the opportunities offered by Florida today for the location here of large maunfactories and smaller industries of all kinds. It will contain facts of interest regarding the various towns and cities of the State, their adaptability and desirability, matters of transportation, etc. It will deal with every phase of the labor question to attract desirable labor to this State. All in all, the edition is planned upon a most elaborate scale and is planned to cover every point of interest that may appeal to the man who has his eye on Florida and to the man who is looking for a desirable farming, manufacturing or business location in the South. The editor-in-chief of the Industrial Record, Mr. J. A. Hollomon, will have directorship of all articles prepared for this special number, and the detail preparation will be in the hands of a staff of competent -_: writers, already employed for that purpose. S This "Immigration Edition of the Industrial Record" will no doubt mark an epoch in trade journal- s"' jism in the South, and it is fitting that the Industrial Record should issue an edition of this kind, in view of af l he a-.t that it is the exponent of the leading industrial and commercial organizations of the State, be- .m, iAiag-the official organ of the Turpentine Operators' Association, the Southeastern Cane Growers' Asso- aw ajation, endorsed by the Georgia-Florida Sawmill Association, etc. In preparing the data for this special Immigration Edition, much attention will be given in gather- ait ia',r g .Jacts and figures which will prove valuable to the energetic and progressive organizations and private citizens in getting passed by the coming Legislature a bill creating an Immigration Department and in ask- ing the Legislature to appropriate a liberal fund for carrying on this great work. The Industrial Record will work hand in glove with the Florida State Board of Trade, and individual boards of trade of the State, in their efforts to successfully solve the question of increasing the population of the State with a desirable citizenship.
