MUCH IMPRESSED GETS DATA FOR ARTICLES James R. Randall, One of the flouth't Most Distinguished Sons, Telia How California Wonders Btrlke Him Jams n. Randall, the man who com* posed "Maryland,' My Maryland," is writing a 'series of articles on Lot Angeles and Southern California. He has been In the city for several weeks collecting data and he says he cannot speak too highly of this won derful country. Mr. Randall was formerly editor of the Augusta (Qa.) Chronicle-Sentinel, and is now prominently Identified with the Journallstlo world. He is one of that coterie of the Souths distin guished sons ' who made its history, framed its romance and sang Its songflt Side by side ln ante-beln lum dnys he stood' with the fam ous Father Ryan and mingled his notes of melody over the* dying form of the old South, and with tuneful harmony he joined with the masterly Orady, the classic Dawson, the im passioned Lamar and the meteoric Graves m rendering picturesque and romantic its subsequent resurrection. Modest, Charming, Magnetlo Modest ln person, charming in man ner, and 'exceptionally magnetic, Mr. Randall has won a place among the celebrities of his era.' Being a devout Catholic, many honors have been shown him by members of that faith and he has contributed many gems to current church literature. "It was ln 1861, in Point Coupee parish, Louisiana, that 'My Maryland' was written," said Mr. Randall. "I remember so well having read in the old New Orleans Delta, then a dally newspaper, of the Massachusetts troops going through Baltimore, and natur ally I was much excited. That night I tried to Bleep, but somehow or other I could not. Then the lines of 'My Maryland' came to me. They seemed to haunt me until finally I got up out of bed and wrote them down. Next day I showed the poem to several friends, who advised me to send it to the Delta for publication. I did so and soon found that I had made quite a hit ' That is the whole story of 'My Maryland.' " • ■ . Likes California Mr. Randall likes California, but he says the people are Inclined to be a little too much on the money-grabbing order. They are generous, kind hearted, energetic, and bright, he grants, but they impress him as being scmewhat over-Indulgent with "fakirs" and "fake" enterprises. The contrast between Los Angeles and San Fran cisco Is great, he avers; it is like a tale of two' cities, one on this conti nent, the i. other across the water. "I was rather surprised to learn ■v.-hen in San Francisco that the people fear Los Angeles as a competitor more than any other coast city," said Mr. Randall. "Of course, I knew very little about Los Angeles then, but since coming here and studying over your great country I am convinced that you will some day rank among the greatest cities of the earth. Los Angeles wfll have a million popula tion before many years roll around." Mr. Randall thinks Los Angeles Is the greatest convention city ln Amer ica. 'rV|l'-'V :; Mr. Randall expects to leave for New. Orleans the latter part of this week. He will make the Crescent city his permanent homfe.
