THE NEWS. Now, Young Man, Will You Come South? Come South, young man, and grow up with the country 1 The formal signing of the treaty with Colombia for the con struction of the Panama canal by the United States has no greater future domestic significance than its certain effect to wonderfully accelerate Southern develop ment. There will he a striking of new balances now in population con centration, trade and varied in dustry. The long overlooked South is to have her delayed grand inning. She will be the “new south'’indeed. For almost a generation the South bravely delved in 1 lie debris and ashes of the civil war to clear the right of way for the golden car of progress hitherto rolling undeviatingly westward. Had there been no war, in all probability the center of popula tion would now be within the Southern States. The South had more than the West genial and seasonable climate, unde veloped natural resources, an abundance of cheap land susccp tible of high productivity, great markets at her door, and plenty of room for home-seeking mil lions, But the South was under a ban. The emigrant tide swept by her to the West, ignorant of the vastly better opport uni ties to be found nearer home. The West tilled up and the South lay fallow for the few who knew the “ground floor" when they were on it. The opening’ of the Panama canal to the world's traffic will more directly and largely benefit the cotton belt than any other large section of the country. The vast current of overland traffic to the Pacific will be in a large degree diverted to the South Atlantic and gulf seaboard, stimulating southern railroad building proportionately and building at southern harbors cities that will rival the greatest of the north. The whole south will be transformed into a teem ing industrial community, where the manufacturer has every ad vantage of convenient, cheap raw material and coal, unequaled facilities to compete with his rivals elsewhere at home or abroad, and a short haul to ship board or the great continental centers population. Such tre mendous industrialism will create a magnificient home market, and the husbandman no less than the tradesman and labor in all its branches will prosper. The South will become the workshop and market place of the western hemisphere. This being the fact—and no speculative probability could bo more self-evident from environ ing conditions—the appropriate ness of our paraphrase of Horace Greeley’s famous advice is ap parent. The young man who has his fortune to hew out with his strong hands and plucky heart, can emigrate to no field of scanti ly exploited possibilities to begin to compare with the Southern states of the union. Here he will find his opportunity, if the stuff is in him, and a cordial welcome. The guide posts of future ma terial supremacy are pointing South.—Atlanta Constitution.
