The conditions having '. been very favorable for the hiber ? nation of the weevil, an early at 5 tack is expected, which will prove fs, very disastrous to cotton in the C- weevil infested districts. ?v.- Because, forsooth, unruly m'pl ebers* of a student body belong to prominent families is no reason ?/"why they should not be disci v pli?ed;- It is better to make an '.example of those who have had V* ?i ample opportunity of knowing ii bow to deport themselves proper ly tfian to discipline some back % woods, country boy who is frieod .| less and * whose advantages and ? opportunities have been limited. ft; 'YJBe iWo Edgefield banks have %mefi than $157,000.00 in interest "fearing deposits. On this euor ^rnouB sum - the bank9. are paying five per cent interest. How much . better it.would be* if this money were invested in sundry manu facturing enterprises. The owners of this - idle,, mpney would be tenefitted^by having the invest ments pay larger dividends than - five per cent, and the banks would also be benefitted b;r _ hi^g^A, ;.:-.:)s^.^rt?o&p!. this -sum find it3. - Edgefield has not a dollar of local capital invested in industri al enterprises of any kind. The town has ample capital to estab lish such enterprises and men of unquestioned business acumen to manage them, but what is need . ed is some one to take the initia tive. If the right men will take ". hoH, within twelve months facto ry whistles would be heard blow ing, bells ringing and the cash of the pay-rolls jingling. Then there would be .much real life in the . old town. Public Conscience Quickened. Not many years- ago Texas was looked upon as the most lawless Btate in the. Union. Nowhere in this .country was human life cheaper. The horse thief had greater terror for the law than the man who spilled human blood. A great change bas been wrought, however. Th? public conscience .of the Lone Star state is more keenly sensitive to-day, if we are to judge by recent legislation, than in many of the other states. Among other laws looking to the improvement of the morals of the people, avery rigoious gambling law naei just been signed by the governor of Texas. One provision of the law is a "jail penalty for the owner of any building where gambling utensils are kept, and imprisonment for thirty days for any person found guilty of play ing cards in a private house for a prize." i.. ' i - Low Wages an Obstacle. One great drawback in the mat ter of securing a desirable class of immigrants for the eoutb will be the low wages that are paid in this section as compared with the wages paid in other sections. Farm labor cannot be paid as touch in the south as in the north fl.nd northwest OM account of the lack of .fertility and productivity ?f the average southern soil. Nei ther csu industrial labor be paid AS nigh wages as in some of the northern manufacturing cen tere, fcecause of the character of the output of the factories. To illus trate-: In the manufacture of cot ton g*>ds, northern mills tte* . make tbs finer glades ?an afford io pay higher " wages than many of the southern mills, that manu facture only the coarsest and cheapest grades of cotton goods. The great problem will be that of holding tho immigrants in the south until they realise the many great advantages thia src'iou hH& over all others. They must be shown that. while wages may be higher iu other sections, living expenses are also correspondingly higher. The climate of the Suuny South will also have grpat weight in inducing foreigners to remain in this section after comiug arnon UB. \ Must Faculty or Cadets Control? Viewed from the outside, there has been for a year or more au unruly and demoralizing element among the Citadel cadets that has repeatp.lly been a soarce of trouble. Because several cadete of this class were recently disci plined for a grave offense, a dozeu c>f their cadet friends and sympa thizers deliberately left the insti tution, which was a direct affront, to the superintendent and facul ty. Some of these refractory cadets belong to the leading families of the t tatp, and an appeal from the ruling of thefar.ulty will.ba made to the board of visitors. * Tha institution is facing a cri sis, the ultimate outcome of which will;d?cide whether the Citadel is to be controlled by a superintend ent and faculty of able, conscien tious n>u or by an insubordinate elemeut of the studeut body. The gravity of the situation makes it imperative that then* be perfect1 unity and accord between the board of visitors and the faculty. Ou this haugs'the future of the institution. If the members of th> hoard have confidence in 1b> ability and integrity of the offi C3rs of the Citadel, then th^y should stand by them to a man. If confidence in these men fp lacking, then their resignations should be i^ked for and others chosen to fill their places. The officers of the Citadel, most of whom are known personally by the writer, are gentlemen of abili ty and character who are cocsci entious and unswerving in the discharge of duty. Wheo such men, who are on the ground and in possession of all the facts, act, the board of visitor* should con sider well before reversing their rulings. Sound Advice to Colored People. Some months ago the colored people of Qiangeburg county or ganized what they call 'The Ne gro Ministeria^aud Lay Council.'' At a recent meeting of thie Coun cil 3.n . address, which .contains some- veryexcells i>t advicev was j '?pued - ? - - ^^?g^^^.'^ilU?fy^ order to give- it 33 wide a circtala tion as possible, The Advertiser publishes -a portion of this ad dress, which reads as follows : "Wo are opposed to what are known as popular railroad ex cursions. We are opposed to the common practice, by so many of our people, of a gathering in the streets of towns and cities on Sat urdays and circus and Bhow days and indulging in vulgar manners and vulgar language. We advise all ^respectable people to keep away from such crowds. The s.iy iug that "Birds of a feather will flock together" is an accepted tru ism. It is therefore not surprising that the common commingling of the best and the worst of our peo ple in the streets on Saturdays and other occasions has been a great injury to the race. If a man 'has the habit of carrying his wife or daughter into the streets to spend from five to ten hours in compaLy with the worst women sud men that gather there, or allow her to sit in a wagon or 1 buggy for many hours in the open 1 street, sometimes even after night, 1 or allows her to go into the Court House during the sessions of ! court (unless she is summoned i there by law) to be jammed and 1 pressed by the vulgar crowds, he I cannot demand proper respect for < her. A good woman so exposed is j a subject of pity:" ? '"Don't be loafers. All good peo- t pie are afraid of loafers andre- \ gard them as criminals. It is a f mistake for so many of oar people t to move from the country iuto the c towns. People who have always 1 been accustomed to the country 1 aud the farm are not apt to fiud t suitable employment in the towus g and cities. It ofteu happens that ? industrious couutry people move a into the towns and soon become t utterly worthless. / "Honest labor for honest wages t LS always respectable and the bet- r. ter we do Buch labor the more we I will prosper as a race.

We commend to these friends aod to all who mourn his elnath the tender love aud mercy of God, who knows all things and does ali thiugs for the best. The union meeting was held al Antioch church last Saturday and Sunday. There was a larg-con gregation out on Saturday, con sidering th? busy work time. The program wag carried out as pub lished. The speeches were all fair ly good. We all were glad to have Bro. P.. P. Blalock of Edgefield and Bro. Doyle of the Methodist church with us, both of whom added much to the interest of the union by their timely talks.
