ernor of Nebraska, was tu Omaha last
night on his way to his birthplace and
his old home at Nehawka otter nn ab
sence of five years spent on his ptanta
tlon In Washington county, Sllsslsslppl
While lolling In the lobby of the lien-
shaw the former governor, dressed In a
bnttertd suit, a. man considerably
broader of girth and 'face, and healthily
brown, rather obstinately refused to
dlocuss the breezy days when ho held
down the governorship.
He Is not much Interested In politics.
Is ex-Governor Sheldon, but he Is tilled
to the brim with high enthusiasm for
the undeveloped part ot the Mississippi
valley, for cotton raising, for cattle and
hogs and chickens, for levees and drain-
ago und such things.
Mouth Need People.
"You know wo need 00X000 families In
tho Mississippi valley," said Planter
Sheldon. "And we could use to excellent
advantage $0,000,000 tor waterways Im
provemcnts. If the federal government
should spend this sum In confining the
Mississippi to a permanent channel It
would be a wise and profitable Invest
ment."
Continuing to boost for his adopted
state and Its sister commonwealths Mr.
Sheldon said It was something to marvel
at when one knew what white families
could, do It they would buy nnd settle
moro densely In tho rich region ot tho
Mississippi valley.
"The climate. Is not bad, ' he sold.
"Crops are sure. Tho land Is selling at
figures below Its Intrlnslo worth, while
the high-priced land In tho north Is
really selling at moro ttmn Its Intrinsic
worth. There are flno pasture lands In
tin south; flnn farm lands; flno timber
lands, but tho timber atone seems to at
tract capital and this timber Is bring
cleared away at great waslo."
Dodges Hookworm.
Laughing, tho former governor said,1,
that white men somotlmea caught the,
hookworm In tho sunny south ha had
not grown lazier than ho was when hei
left Nebraska He has owned his Mis.
slsslppl land twelve years and has lived
there five years with hut wife and four
children.
"There Is a great future for chicken
raisers in tho south," said Mr. Sheldon
"but the trouble seems to ho tho whites
like chicken too welt and keep eating
them, unmindful ot tho fact that theyl
would lay tho yrar around."
Referring to tho so-called negro prob
lem In tho south tho ex-governor said In
hlR opinion tho negroes wero treated
with Impartial Justlco by tho courts. He
said In recent years there was a greater!
tendency for negroes, and whites to keep
to themselves and thero was less appar
ent raco mixture. The Idea Uiat t! ul
timate sotution ot tho race problemi
would bo amalgamation he scouted as
impossible.
To Open lllver Travel.
Mr. Sheldon's chief concern Is ff derail
all In securing rlvor Improvements tm-
ptovnmcntn thut would not only safe
guard the Und from overflow, but wo.ulal
opor. the river channel to steady and safe
commercial ttavel.
After spending a few days at Ne
hawka Mr. Sheldon will como back Mo
Omaha and will spend part of next week
In the city, after which he will return
