Senator Latimer's position on tho in in ig rat i< >u quotum is impregnable. 11 s he is heartily in lavor of denaoic immigrants coming to South 'aiohna lull is unaitcraDly opposed u a i'looit ol umlesirahlcs Doing roiignt in. No ouo dare say more r less limn this.?-Suni'ler Item. It lias been a little amusing to see lie big amount of interviews and iscussions and newspaper editorials n the position ol" Senator Latimer. )oes any body favor undesirable iniligrants eoiiuug to South Carolina/ 1* ho does lie lias not expressed hiinuIf. Wouhl anybody oppose de.sirble immigrants ? The question might rise on the definition of "desirable" ml there is room for difference of pinion on this definition. Since tile last decision o( the iniligral ion bureau of the Federal g<'\rnmciil we eaniiot spend our nio.iey i paying passage and sending agents tin Kurope to iinI i?*.* iiumigra.it>.

This agitation, however, has been rent ihi.ig f??r Senator Latimer ml his position i~ as the Item says nproguablo and lias the endorsement f a laige majority of (he people of lis state which is lhe vital point 1st now in I his controversy. We hope every cotton grower will ad I lie editorial from Saturday Kvuing I'ast as quoted in the Farmers nio.i column today and ask himself hat he thinks of the sentiment there ^pressed. Thai is about the way the southern tton planter has permitted himself In treated for many years and if e will continue to he a slave he de i\i' iii 111 i 11 - * I ie 11? r. lie |i!-' > i ill iiiuwer to he the most independent ? i I ii i I i lie republic il lie hut w ill. I on runs into money very fast, ivs tiie l\?l, and ilie country niii-t i*jtend upon it largely to turn the de this way. "Thai, in view of Ich need.'' says tho post, "plan rs should hold coiion for merely er>oital vain is truly rc>pi ehensile." Thai i- refreshing for its gall, lie southern farnnr nni^t sacrifice is personal interests tor the good ol ie country aud the pockets of the am biers. 'Then the Post says, the "banks facially will keep them (the cotton lanters) in the pat liof duty by reisiug to extend loans on stored cot ?n. * * Then a gentleman from IV.insyliiuia is going to introduce in conress a bill "forbidding planters to ilhiiohl a single bale that was ready >r export." This must be a .joke. The farmers who grow cotton lould lake heed and by growing hat they need on the farm be in nsition to hold at their good pleasre. TCH IN THE SKIN.
