EXAMINE IMMIGRANTS. onditions in North Caroina Oauso Government Officials to Be come More Vigilant. Washington, Oct. 24.-Apparentl: trouble is in sight for Commissione Watson's shipload of immigrant when they land at Charleston on No vember, 2, and it may be that number of them will be required t return home. The trouble that is expected is du to the fact (lat during the last tw weeks immigration officials have bee: investigating the case of Hilda Bar nes, a young English girl, who cami to the United States unler proinises it is 9,l....(1, by ren -oI flIves of cot ton mills at (lastonia and Charlotte N. C., lint sie would receive bit wages. She was said to have been of a party of twcaty who went to Nort Carolina. She had no money whioi she arrived, as was tle case with tl other niemlbers of the party. She be c-nme dissaltisfied v !; er lot, an then became a chi arge on the country. Private detoLves have been i North Carolina for two weeks and report filed with Cotnissoner Sal gent by them today indicates tIa many In hi.gh up in offical life ir that state have bevn -iiillv of violat in% 01 immo 'tm laws and are sub jeet, to aiiesl. So serions tias the situation becom in view of the early arrival of man; immigrants at Charleston that Com missioner Sargent left last night fo Charlotte with D. A. Tompkins an, other prominent men from that place whio were er' liv cuy in confe enee with tiv commissoner and Secre tary Metealf' of the departinent o: Commerce and labor. Mr. Sargen will take the matter in hand personal ly and will make a more thorongi investigation of the fack set. out it the report of the special agents. This trouble will undoubtedly causc the immigrants soon to land at Char leston considerable embarrassmen aiid will result ini a more careful scriutiny than otherwise would have been the case. T1. now appears thal many of tihe new arrivals at Charles ton will not he allowed to proeced t< otlier parts of' the stat( intiil they have been held sufficient time t< convince tle iiiigration officiali tl'd e"' 1 A .'Iheme i: being workeo on t.he bureau. Mr. Sargent will in vestigate condltions fully while away not only in North Carolina, bnl ir other parts of the South, and will pro ceed to Charleston to be on hand be fore the Wit.tekind arrives. The imnig-ration bureau considere the Nortli Carolina case as unfortunri ate for Watson, as it will undoubtedly cause many of the immigrants to b< rejected who otherwise would have beCn allowed to enter but for this oc currence. HAS BORROWED LITTLE. High Levy for 1905 Brought Muel Money In-High Valuation Will Bring in More. The Stat(e. The State of South Carolina wil Owe less at (lie ('id of this year that mi manyul prev'iouis years. Undler thi laiw only $50,000 can b)e boirrowved bi one year to meet debts that arc con trated and cannot he mt by the ta: mlonJey r(eeived. Ulp to t his y'ear th< full amount ha~s had to be' obtaine< from baniks in the North, hut (hi; timie only $325,000 was borrowed whic'h means a considerable' saviing ht iterest. The r'educt ion ('an be partly ae colunted fot' by (lie raise in (lie ta: levy in 105 which was (lie mone, usedl this year. For the present yeaI the levy was put back at its fi'onme figure and until thie returns from thi anditoirs commenee to come in it wa thought (lhat next yeai' would imeni that (lie State would have to go bael to the (.ld way and borrow (lie fuil amount in 19fl7. The retuins, however, indicate ai enormous increase in (lie valuatioi of p)roperty and when all the countle are heard from thei'e are indication that batsincss may be coniducted ontt .cash basis next year. Twl~o return received by the comptroller genera showed in('reases of 12 andl 15 pe~ centt. r'espec'tively. ' The total valuation in Lexingto of all pr)oper'ty for .1905 was $4,194, 605 and for 1906 is $4,818,954, a gaih Sof $624,289. Iont Aiken county, where the assesi mentsom have always been high, the val 126,740 and for 1006, $10,262, 842, ~,ain of $1,136,108. ,Other counties have shown gain * ily as great, especially in the Pe aosection of the State, where, I Ssaid, the land has always beet heecd at a low' valuation up to tha eont year. The fact that the Stat! id ot pi'ovide a flexible levy as ad de by the cemnpi "or general vented even fuller returns, bul the start has been- made in the right direction, and there is a general de 3 sire on the part of county auditors to abide by the .resolutions adopted at their convention here last year, when it was decided to rigidly enforce the law. Returns are not,yet made at the full value, but it is thought that with changes recommended in the tax laws - this can eventually be done and all property epualized, GLADDEN ON RAOE PROBLEM. He Suggests that the Negroes be Giv en States in the South and Left to Work Out Their Own Sal 3 vation. - Associated Press. Oberlin, 0., Oct. 25.-Before the American Missionary Association in session here. Rev. Washington Glad 7 den, of Ohio, discussed the ''Anieri 1 cnn Missionary Association and the DProblems of Emancipation,'' saying - in part: ''Te legacy left us by emancipa tion is the care of the negro race In the United States. It is a national problem. The burden of this obliga - tion rests upon the whole nation, as t ,many of the wisest Southern men in sist.'' ''The problem as it confronts Is, involves the principles ott which our nation is founded. It is well state.d in the words of Carl Schurz, 'There will be a movement either in the dir - ection of reducing negroes to the per manent conditon of serfdom, the con dition of the mere plantation hland, alongside mute-practically without any rights of citzenship; or a move -1ment in the direction of recognizing hin as a citizen in the full sense of lie term.' "Such a movement as that describ ed in the first alternative is now in full progress. In the South conditions are rapidly becoming more unfavora ble to the negro. Tie manifestoes of Governor Vardman, which some time will be endorsed by the people of the State, and the reeent campaign itt Georgia, in which i he candidates most equivocally favoring the repression of the negro was overwhelmingly elect ed, show that drift of opinion in titat section. ''Senator Tillman's prediction that race struggles of a very bitter nature were likely to be frequent and contin uous in the future is not without prob ability. I can see no other outcome of a strife of this natkire than the sf gregation of the races." Ie favored creating three or four states in the South composed wholly of negroes, governing themselves and represented in Congress at Wishing ton. The blacks, lie said, would suffer by being thrown on their own resources in their poverty and it would take I iem several generations to work out the problem of civilization. To the whites, the prosperity iln whech they are now rejoicng would suffer a se vetr, perhaps a deatdly blow. Essay On Horse. Te following remarkable essay on the horse is said to he from the pen of an lIndian student: ''The horse is a very noble quadru pedl, but wvhen he is angry lhe will not do so. lie is ridden on the spintal cord by the bridle and sadly tihe driv er places his foots on thte stirrup and dhivides~ htis lower limbs across the sad deand drives his animal to thte mnead ow. lie htas four legs; two are on the front side and two are afterward. These are the weapons on whichI hte runs. iIe also dlefends himself by cx tendtig tose in the rear itt a paralled lir ect ion towarvd his foe, but this he does only when in a vexatious mood. There istino animal like the horse. No sooner thtey see their guardiani or mas ter thtan they alwvays cry for food; but It is always at thte morning titme. They have got tails but tnot so lotig as the cow~ and othet such like atitmals.'' Scottish Ametican. Coal! Coal!! Coal!!!
