IMMIGRATION SOUTH. iige Parties Attracted to South Carolina and Elsewhere, Washington Evening Star, Jan. 15.) The work oMhe last decade in inloing immigration to the Southern ates by the land and industrial deirtment of the Southern railway, slated by the residents and the .rious industrial organizations of e South, is bearing results that irpass expectations. Large parties iss through Washington almost ktly on their way to the South to ke up new homes. Special atten>n is being paid to the farmer imigrants. They are being attracted jm Canada and Europe. Representatives of a party of 200 ospeotive German immigrants of e North StateB and the fatherland, companled by officials of the rail\y company, passed through the by last night to make a tour of inaction of the South. They are & rous of g*mng ma uption on 10,000 res of land, and will visit the more oduotive states to find a suitable cation. The land will be selected Ith a view to its fertility, advanges and the healthfulnes of the immunity. Mr. M. V. Richards, head of the nd and industrial department of V e railway, is pleased with the re- > ilts attained in South Carolina. He > ys there are a number of feasible id well-considered colonization proots under way in the South at the esent time. "South Carolina," said Mr. Richda, "feels the effect of the extradinary factory development, a derlopment which for several years is attraoted to itself not only the ost able and energetic men of the iate, but the better class of farm bor as well. The mill men have ached a point whera they realize iat the source of their labor?the iral districts?must be replenished ith people to meet local demands r the raw staple, as well as supply ie markets which the mills have 'ought into existence with such arvelous rapidity. "One of the movements referred to ntemplates interesting Scotch immiants. The Scotch figured prominently the early colonial settlements in both e Carolinas, and many of their leading id most Droflrreasive citizens ar? of ;otch or Scotch-Irish extraction. The ivironment is highly favorable to Scotch imignpis. "ATJot her movement looks to the provcces of Canada for reinforcements of irat population. A considerable colony French-Canadians has taken up lands . tarSummerville. and it isexpected that any more will follow in the near future. / heae people, like the French and Ital- ' ns of the continent, are exceedingly oee farmers and skilled vineyardists, id are especially well adapted to the mditions in the Carolinas. "Other communities are making ef?rts to attract German immigration, fhile different sections have their pretences, the German farmer is eveiyhere acceptable. No more who'esome ifluence can be introdu ed into single *op sections than the methods of the erman farmer, illustrated by the Gerlao himself. It is a method which ha* stained and conserved the fertility of le soil of the fatherland through hunreds of years devoted to constant cultiation." The officials of the Southern Railway iompany are in recelnt of information > the effect that a large number of the toers of the Transvaal are desirous of nmigrating to the United States and rating in the Southern States. A letit was received at the general offices of He railway today from South Africa inuiring as to the adaptability of the arious States of the South to the habits nd pursuits of the Boers ^ Kicking From Both Sid em.
