Industrial Association and eleoted.

known as the Southern Immigration
and Industrial Association, its objeot
being to exercise an educational and
supervisory iniluenoe over mattes
pertaining to immigration, hosU?i,
labor, teohnical education ami
general enforcement of vagranoy
laws, in order that n uniform policy
regarding these mattel8 may prevail
throughout the Son di. Governors]
and State commissioners of agricul
ture, representatives from commer
cial, manufacturing and business or
ganizations are made honorary mem
bers of the association. The active
membership is to be composed of
railroads, corporations, firms or indi
viduals. Tue appointment. <>f a vies
president from each Stat?1 is recom
mended.
The report was adopted unani
mously.
TECHNICAL KI>UCATION URGED.
The report of the committee on j
education was then adopted. It.
recommended the adoption in South
ern schools of the Louisiana system
of hygienic instruction ; hearty co
operation by the farmers of th
State experiment farms ; the found
ing of trade schools md that the
Governors of all Southern States
call the attention of their people to
tho great need of technical educa
tion for the whole youth of the
South.
Tho report of the committee on
immigration recommended that the
several Southern States establish
deputments of immigration. The
report urces the Federal government,
"lo provide liberally for the reception
of immigrants at the South Atlantic
and Gulf ports, and thus encourage
the establishment of steamship lines
for direct importation of immigrants,
thereby relieving tho crowded con
dition of Ellis Island and the con
gested Eastern oities."
Tho report was adopted.
Every
Two Minutes
Physicians tell us that all
the blood in a healthy
human body passes through
the heart once in every two
minutes. If this action be
comes irregular the whole
body suffers. Poor health
follows poor blood ; Scott's
Emulsion makes the blood
pure. One reason why
SCOTT'S
EMULSION
is such a great aid is because
it passes so quickly into
the blood. It is partly di
gested before it enters the
stomach ; a double advan
tage in this. Less work
for the stomach ; quicker
and more direct benefits.
To get the greatest amount
of good with the least pos
sible effort is the desire of
everyone in poor health.
Scott's Emulsion does just
that. A chartert* fnr the
D
better takes place even be
fore you expect it
We will tend you a

A letter WM read from John
Sharp Williams, in which he ex
pressed the belief that the solution
of the moe question might be found
in a preconcerted effort to bring
white people of the right sort into
the South as servants, tenants and
farmers. He advooated the forma
tion of a land company with a capi
tal of at least $1,000,000 to buy lauds
throughout the ootton States and
soil them on time to desirable immi
grants. A hopeful sign, Mr. Wil
liams said, is the faot that the negro
birth rate in the country is decreas
ing very remarkably, while the birth
rate of the white people iu the Gulf
States ia the largest anywhere in the
world. Mr. Williams recommended
the establishment of a mounted rural
police, after the Cape Colony and
Canadian systems.
MK. WILLIAM'S PROPHECY.
"Tlu? politioal phase of the negro
problem we have pretty well worked
out to an approximately satisfactory
issue," he went on to say, and recom
mended a limitation of the franohise
to the white race. He prophesied
that similar aotion would be taken a
generation hence in Illinois, Indiana
and Ohio. He favored the rigid en
forcement of vagrancy laws and said
that if the negro would not work he
must got out of the field. The im
portation of desirable white immi
grants, not only from foreign coun
tries, but from the North, was also
suggested in the letter.
The report of the good roads oom
mitlet favored the adoption of the
Latimer-Brownlow bill, now pending
in Congress, asking for national aid
in tbe construction of good road H
and that the States use every effort
to improve their highways.
The government aid feature of the
report precipitated a debate which
lasted nearly two hours and in which
about 12 delegates were heard
This portion of the report was finally
s' rickon out.
At the afternoon session N. F
Thompson, of Chattanooga, advo
caled the strictest enforcement o:
tho vagrancy laws with a suspcnsioi
of sentence in ouse the negro woulc
go to thc Panama canal. Continu
lng ho said :
THK POLITICIAN'S HOBBY.
"I would have the world knov
that this race problem has its mos
fertile source of perpetuity in th?
efforts of politicians who find it !
most, efficient hobby on which to rid*
into place and power. When then
are no elections in the South w
hoar very little about this race mat
ter.
"Have you ever considered tha
there does not exist in the Soutl
any problem that begins to compan
in seriousness to that whioh spring
from slums in New York, the an
arabists in Chioago, the race probier
in San Francisco and the 'mo
upirit' found practically in all tb
labor oenters of the North and East
.'Thc enforcement of the vagrano;
laws uniformly all over the Sout
will tend largely to the eliminatio
of the idle negro.
"This brings me to a suggestio
that I made to President Roosevo
recently and which appears to ha\
boon generally misunderstood. I
order to aid both races :in the Sout
to got clear of these idle negros an
aid in tho speedy completion of a
enterprise in which the South
deeply interested, I told him that
believed that a plan?could be adopt(
that would??tako tho|classes large
out of tho South and send them
dig the Panama canal. At his r
quest I went ovor4the matter wi
Chairman Shonts, of the isthmii
commission and{ Secretary of W
Taft. Thespian involves the plaoir
of the limit on all vagrants and tin
su8ponding (judgment if thoy wou
voluntarily go to Panama."
AV. .J. OL1VKK SPEAKS.
W. J. Oliver, of Knoxville, Tent
told of the troubles of contracto
at work on construction works, bi
still, ho said, ho preferred the neg
to the Italian or the Chinaman.
Dr. Stephen ?M. Newman,
Washington, D. C., representing tl
Liberal Immigration League, deli
ered an address dealing with imm
gration from the time of Abraham 1
tho present day. Any conf?rent
that seems to deal with immigratio
he said, is not taking up an expel
raent, butyls dealing^with tho sol
tion not only of the raoe probier
but of all problems.

CONCLUDES ITS WORK.
Tho Boothera Quar-utine and
Immigration Commission, which at
noon to-day assumed its new title of
Southern Immigration and Indus
trial Association, oonolnded its busi
ness to-night. The report of the
committee on quarantine, which was
adopted during the ''ay, advooated
that the conference take uo aotion in
advising transfers of maritime quar
antines to the Federal government
by those States which have not al
ready made transfers, it being the
sense of the committee that eaoh
State should be at liberty to act as
it sees tit. The oonferenoe devoted
its time almost entirely to a discus
sion of the immigration problem.
Under this head the race question
early took prominence, and did not
receive its quietus until the conven
tion adjourned to-night. The senti
ment of the delegation is largely in
favor of welcoming any desirable
class of white immigrants, without
regard to nationality, yet there ap
peared at times some desire to keep I
the blaok man, with all his faults,
where he is. The convention recom
mended that the Governors of all
Southern States be requested to rec
ommend immediate establishment of
bureaus of immigration.
An attempt was made this after
noon to reconsider the decision to
meet next year at Birmingham. A
spirited fight was put up by the
South Carolina delegation, which
sought, to gaiu the convention for
Charleston, but the convention de
clined to reopen Thu matter.

Mutt Uva al Hom?.
In a recent bulletin of the experi
ment station of Clemson College a
practical plan is made for a wide ex
tension of agricultural industries in
the State. This plea is based upon
the reBults obtained with forage
crops grown at the coast experiment
station. It is urged that some forage
crop should be grown on every farm,
and a good 1 int to ohooso from is
given, including alfalfa, beggar-weed,
the velvet boan, cat-tail millet, teo
sinte, kaffir corn, sorghum, cow peas,
orimson clover, hairy vetch, oats,
rye, barley, Canada 6eld peas, resoue
grass, Texas blue grass and wheat.
The bulletin adds :
"There is no good reason. why
South Carolina should not grow
every pound of hay that is needed
for feeding farm stook, nor is there
any reason why butter, cheese and
meats should not be produoed. In
this latitude the winters are very
short, and it does seem, from the
many winter crops that are adapted
to the soil, that farmers oould, with
almost no -spense, grow enough
green food to feed their stock during
the winter months.
"The oity of Charleston alone con
sumes $10,6$0 worth of hay per
month. This hay is shipped from
the North, East and West and why
send to other parts of the United
States for hay when the soil in this
State will produce hay superior to
that which is shipped hero from
other States ?"
South Carolina farmers have no
definite conception of the vast pos
sibilities that their soil opens up to
them. Tho faots Bet forth in the
above oannot be controverted, and
they should open the eyes of every
intelligent planter in the State to a
realization of his unsurpassed op
portunities and limitless advantages.
South Carolina farmers wi'l not be
coiufl independent until they find
out from practical experience that
they can live at homo and grow at
home everything that is necessary
for their maintenance. They must
not only produce at home much of
what they eat, but they must also
feed their stock on home grown com
and hay and other crops. They
must atop sending their money away
from home for farm products that
can bo grown on their own lands.

It has been definitely established
at Montclair, New Jersey, that a
pet buck deer killed Herbert Brad
ley, a wealthy flour exporter, whose
dead body waa found recently on the
preserves at his home there. Deputy
County Physician Simmons, of Or
ange, found that Mr. Bradley's death
was due primarily to the deer's rip
ping open an artery in bis hip. The
horns of the buok were found to be
covered with blood. Mr. Bradley
had recently returned from a busi
ness trip to the West and was told
that a great deal of shooting by bun
ters wa? going on the woods near his
estate. He started out to see if any
hunters had broken into his grounds,
and it was while investigating that
tho buck killed him.
