Waiker, ex-member of Congress from the Ninth Virginia district, and a ?rigader General in the Confederate army, who at ono time commanded Stonewall Jackson's old brigade, died at his home in Wytheville, Va., last Sunday morn ing. mum m -mn The negro convicts of Mississippi number 028, as against 107 whites. This ought to vive a very fair idea of the sort of race problem we have in the South, but thc chances are thc average northern man will refuse to *ec it and insteau look upon it as auothcr piece of discrimination. Xever send a dollar away from home, when thc article that the dollar will purchase can bc obtained at home. Money is our financial blood. Its circulation keeps thc business body alive. Bleed that body by sending the money away from home and busi ness soon will put on a look of legarthy and inactivity. Always trade at home. - ' mm . mu-. . Assistant Attorney General Gunter has written an opinion that trustees of. common schools have no legal right to .thargo any fees or incidentals, and ?jays that any charges in free schools are illegal. This docs not apply to graded schools, as graded schools are especially exempt from the general school law and trustees have stated powers. Thc annual report of thc State Treasurer of Georgia speaks volumes for thc prosperity of that State and of the South in general, for Georgia has been prosperous only in proportion to the other States. Theuty-four new banks have been established in the last year with a collective capital of $570,800. .'.Thc total number of banks is 170, and their books for the last year show an incrcaso of $021,312.31 in surplus and net profits, and an in crease of $5,303,045.81 in loans and discounts. Tho number, cf,deposits has. largely iuoreased^-jp?rtic?larly among farmers. fy Jj As a rule, it. is desirable to build up and promote our foreign export trade in every possible way, but Mining and Metallurgy, a trade paper, very sensi bly observes that thc export of Ameri can ?oa? ia thc last thing in thc way of a foreign trado to be encouraged or boomed. The supply is not unlimi ted, and until now sources of energy arc discovered, it is vital to the in dustrial welfare pf the nation. To stimulate its exhaustion for export purposes would be short-sighted policy indeed, lt is not so many years ago that wood cut from thc forests fur nished an abundant and seemingly exhaustless fuel, especially in thc rural districts. Already hints have come from thu coal regions that the day is coming when no moro coal will be mined. The Atlanta ?ousttftitian says that not only is thc cotton crop short but the stock in spinners, bands is about exhausted. In England thc spinners have only a two weeks' supply, and thc ijuautity at sea is much smaller than last year. Thc spinners now see the folly of not having stocked up earlier, but the benefit is likely to accrue to the planter whose judgment led him to anticipate this contingen cy. The spinners of the South have thc advantage of being at the source of supply, and can get their hands on stray cotton in the warehouses or iu barns on thc farm much easier than those at a distance. Farmers may now feel assured that cotton cannot go materially down, while thc pros pects are decidedly upward. Thc Jefferson club, of St. Louis, has just erected at Monticello, Ya., a handsome monument t o the memory of Thomas Jefferson, the greatest statesman this country or any other country ever gave to the world. The shaft contains suitable inscriptions, which commemorate many of the great achievements of the groat Vir ginian, and they call to mind thc inscription which Jefferson himself wrote for his o^n tomb which wan as follows: "Herc was buried Thomas Jefferson, author of thc Declaration of Independence, of the statute of Vir ginia for religious freedom and father of thc University of Virginia." Those three achievements he desired to be remembered as the greatest of his long and .useful lifo, and they cover a wide fieH, indeed. Govern ment, religion, education-three de partments of endeavor to whkh bc made, the greatest of contributions; The last issue <>!' nur est' ?med co ti' - temporary, tho Ijauivmsville //?./o/i/, closed ?ts fi F ty sixth valunic. We ex tend our congratulations io <?ur ven erable friend. Cn! T. f>. ('rews, its editor, and wish he and Iii- paper many more year? of prosperity. President Roosevelt had Hooker T. Washington, one of thc most noted negro? in thu South, as his guest at dinner in tho Whit?: House a few days ago, and this one act will tend to chill the favor with which the President is regarded in thc South. There is no denying thc fact that the President has thc right to entertain whom he pleases in any manner he desires, but when he attempts to recognize social equality among thc races bc ma> expect the denunciation of every intelligent person of tbe rVoglo-Sason race. The Picaiduul has not done himself or the negro race any good by this act, thc bad effect of which will reach beyond him. m . mm A meeting ol' thc Executive Com mittee of the State Press Association was bold in (marleston last Thurs day night to lix a date for the enter tainment and reception by the Ex position Directors of the journalists and their families of the State. Thurs day, the Pith of December, was set apart for the occasion, and all the newspaper people of the State are in vited. A very interesting program will bo arranged, and we will be the special guests that day of the Exposi tion Company. This committee meet ing called us to Charleston, and while there we had the pleasure of visiting the Exposition grounds. To say that we were agreeably surprised as to thc extent of thc Fxpostion but feebly expresses it. It is going tobe a great show, and will excel any Exposition ever held in the South. It is simply wonderful what the Company has dono with thc limited amount of capi tal to back it. Every South Carolin ian who visits the Exposition will bc surprised at its magnitude and will be proud of it. Several of thc main building have been completed, and the work on thc other buildings is progressing rapidly. Thc Exposition will open on time, and the general out look for its success could not be brighter. There is no doubt that it will be of great benefit not only to Charleston but to the entire State. Our only regret is that Anderson will not bc represented there by a County exbibi.. Ordination.
