There will be less crime in South Carolina and less complaint of the scarcity of farm labnr if the vagrancy Inw is strictly enforced. "Don't marry a man," said a New Jersey preacher, addressing a class- of young women, "until you know about his past." The chances arc that the average young woman would not marry a man after learning about his past. ? *? ? Tobacco growers of Kentucky and Tennessee are incensed at reports of the Department of Agriculture which show a 20 per cent, increase in the acreage of the crop. These reports are believed by them to have been in Bpired by the Tobacco trust. The postoffice department has is sued a fraud order against a concern that advertised a lotion to make black men white. Now if it will bar the lotions that are guaranteed to take the kink out of the wool, the race problem may be in the way of solu tion. An insurance agent says that the young wife of an old man rejuvenates him, and that he would consider a man of 70 who married a girl of 20 a much better risk than before. Here is a point to be considered by those sweet young things with a keen sense of business who pick out eligible old men with one foot in the grave. - -?? - - urn Of the five honor men of the class of 11105 at West l'oint one is from CJeorgi?, one from Michigan, one from North Carolina, one from Oregon and one from Maryland. The South get3 three of the five "stars'" and the West the other two. The new South seems to be jogging along pretty well, com ments the New York World. Widespread attention has been at tracted by the reported threats of a Chinese boycott against American made goods, in retaliation for the ac tion of this government in enforcing the provisions of the old Chinese ex clusion law. The matter is of especial interest in tho South, because of the large volume of our cotton tex tile trade with China, which may be eliminated. Jn addition to the address of Col. S. II. Hardwiok, the South Carolina IVesB Association at its approaching meeting at White Stone Springs will have the pleasure of an address from Hon. M. L. Smith, of Camden, speak er of the House of Representatives of South Carolina. Mr. Smith is an eloquent orator, and the members of the Association may expect a rare treat from him. Several hundred negro educators at Tuskegee, Ala., have passed resolu tions calling upon their people to ab stain from crime and also protesting against lynching. An additional paragraph in the resolutions calling upon, their people to give up criminals to the officers of the law and to cease covering up crime by protecting known violators would have been thoroughly \ in order. President Roosevelt is doing his best to bring about peace between Russia and Japan. August 1st has been definitely set as the time for the meeting of the peace commission. In the meantime there is no indica tions that an armistice will be de clared. Linevitoh thinks he has vic tory in his hand and the Japanese are equally confident. So with peace almost in sight the prospects are that there will yet be a bloody battle. Should the Russians win the whole situation would be changed and peace negotiations might be broken off altogether. But thnir chances seem very slight. Just now the press of the South is Agitating the immigration question to c considerable extent and is doing much good. The South needs immi grants, but it should pay oareful at tention to the sort it gots. We do not want to Bee any system of indis criminate importation & inaugurated. We want only the best quality. If we get Amerioaus from the other States of .ho North, si et us get such foreigners as readily assimilate Ameri can ideals and ideas?-the kind of Eu ropeans *?ho have really helped de velop the northwest in the last forty wears. The South is about the oclj flection of the country iu whioh the ideals of American oitizenship have been preserved. She owes it to her* self and to the nation at large to see that only suoh immigrants are allow ed to enter as are'.lit to maintain the standards. Col. E. J. Watson, the Immigration Commissioner of South Carolina, is pursuingjtbis latter course and is doing a great g work for the ; State. 1 This is a good suggestion from the Greenville news and should he carried out: ''The suggestion has been made that every pupil in the public schools of the State be requested to contribute one cent to help purchase a silver ser vice for the battleship South Carolina. Our namesake will not be put into commission for * number of years, but the suggestion is Kood, inasmuch as it will make the children feel a personal interest in the navy. And it wiil help to make them more patriotic, just as it will give them a fresh touch on history. Attention. Prohibitionists !
