RBSTR1CTED IMMIGRATION.
In another column we print an in
terview from Mr. J. A. Patten on the
immigration question. He reviews
certain proposed legislation by con
gress and discusses the questivn i
telligently. We hope those of our
readers who are interested iii this
question, and all of us are iitere.ted,
will read ,what Mr. Patten has to
say.
We have never taken to the idea
that we should go wild on the sub
ject of immigration or that there was
any necessity for us to be seeking im
migrants at all.
Of course, if good people warat to
come 'among us there should 'be noth
ing throw:i in their way and we
should bid them welcome. But we
have never been able to see the wis
dom of running around hukating peo
pie and begging them to come to
South Carolina.
It is a little strange that we should
say that it is necessary to have more
white people to overcome the large
negro majority and at the same time
pass laws which practically prohibit
any- one coming here to take from
South Carolina any of the negroes.
A state as dld as South Carolina,
it does not seem to us, should have
any necessity to _, out begging peo
ple to come. Besides we are now as
prosperous as any section of the
globe acid why as Mr. 'Patten says
should we want to be seeking other
conditions that we know not what
the result may be.
We desire to quote from Mr. Pat
ten's interview the following and to
commend it to the thoughtful con
sideration of those who think that
we shall go to the bad if we do not
get a large lot xf the immigrants who
are being dumped on our shores. It
seems to us we had better cut the
whole business o:t and go on with
our own people and our Own civiliza
tion. Speaking of this subject Mr.
Patten 'says:
* "In a short time you could probab
ly settle every cultiv'atable acre of
* ~ land in the south, and in the course
sof a fewv years quadruple the pres
ent eotton erop and cut the price in
tavo. In an even shorter time your
forests cotld be turned into lumber
argd your ;minerals mined. But what
is the use of all this rtad, hot haste
* to develop every one of your resoure
es? You are now. after many years
of. hard and self-sacrificing effort, a
happy, contented anid yr&sperous peo
= pie. Why fly from the present labor
ills, whatever they are made out, to
be by the selfish interests, to ills
you snow not of?' Why not leave
something for your own posterity'
- and not jeopardize your institutions,
ideals. end very eivilization itself, by
bri:aing in other alien races which
are now beginning to cause in the
Northeast the very economic, social
and racial evils -which are known on
the Pacific slope as the "Yellow
Peril' and in the south as the 'Ne
gro Problem?'"
As stated Tpuesday this issue of The
Herald and News is printed on Wed
nesday afternoon so that the force
snay have Thanksgiving day.
NOT MANY TBTOTALBRS.
Only 15 Per Cent of the Adult Males
Ranked as Such.
-Per cent of men who drink, 85.
Per cent who drink to excess, 30.
Per cent who are inebriates, 12..
Per cent who are ineurable, 7.
-Per cent of women who drink, 65.
The man who is respons,ible for
these figutres is Dr. W. D. Lawrence
of Minneapolis.
"Fifteen per cent of the adult mal
: es in this country are teetotalers,''
said D)r. Lawrence to the Des Moine-s
correspondent of the Clinton Herald,
"wil 5 per cent are what may be
termed privilege. drinkers: that is.
men who claim the rig~ht to take a
drink as it pleases them. 'out. who do
not drink to excess.
"Thirty per cent are diseased
through the use of drink or drugs
*these statisties relate to the use of
drugs as well as the use of liquor.
Thiey are inebriates and have acquir
edl the~ habit. whiebl Ls bey ond their
control. Of these 12 per cent are
submlIerged.

of benevolent societies, and organiza

Childhood's Blunders.
Religious Herald.
Is there anything after all quite
so naiveiy and deliciously humorous
as the unconscious blunders of chil
dren? Here are a few samples taken
from answers given in a school ex
amination in England. That they are
<_enuinle there cannot be the silglitest
doubt:
The equator is a. menagerie lion
running round th.e center of the
earth. (The transformation of "im
aginary line' into "ne:iagerie lion''
is positively de.ightful.) Then look
at these happy turns:
A vaceuum is nothing shut up in a
box.
The zebra is like a horse, only
striped, and used to illustrate the
letter Z.
The climate of Bombay is such
that its inhabitants have to live else
where.
Simon de Montford's father was a I
Crusader, and from him he inherited
religiousness, which was very use
ful to him afterward when he be
came Archbishop of Canterbury.
But after all we think the follow
ing will strike the editors as the
richest of the collection:
Etc., is a sign used to make believe
you know more than you do.
Basily Turned.
Youth's Companion.
A small boy was asked to take
dinner at the home of a distinguish
ed professor in Priniceton. The lad's
mother, in fear lest he should com
mit some breach of etiquette, gave
him repeated directions as to what
he should not do.
Upon his return from the great oc
casion, the mother's first question
was, "Harold, did you get along at
the tAble all right?"
"Oh, yes, mamma, well enough.
"You are perfectly sure you did
not do anything that was not per
fectly polite and gentlemanly?"
'Wh.y, no-nothing to speak of
"Then something did happen.
What wasit'
"But I filed it ..11 right, mamma."
"Tell me at once.''
''Why, I got along pretty well un
til the me'at came, but while I was
trying to cut mine it slipped off on
to the floor. But I made it all
riht
".What did you do?"
"Oh, I just say, sort of careless
ly, ''Dhat's always the way with
tough meat.' ''. L 1
Losing the Opportunity.
Marshall P. Wilder told a stutter
ing story at a dinner in Chicago.
"I hate stuttering stories as a
rule'' he s'aid. "but this one is rath
er good. It is about two black-]
smiths. hoth stutterers. The first
snatcned a lump of red-hot iron from
the anvil and then beg'an this conver
sation:
'N-n-:; w. th-the-the1, st-strike!

Ha'oper 's Weekly.
"It is a rule to 'which good law
yers unusigally .adhere,'' says *a
Philadelphia attorney, "never to tell
more than one knotrs. There was
an instance in England, not many
years ago, wherein a lawyer carried
the rule to the extreme.
"One of the agents in a Midland
revision court objected to a person
wose name was on the register' on
the groundl that he was dead. The
revision at torney declined to accept'
the assurance, however. - and de

Even His Dentist Finds Fault.

Secretarv William Loeb, who car
ries as many official secrets under a
tall silk hat as antv other man in
\ashington. walk4d back to the
WVhite House offices the other day
smiling in spite of the fact that he
had been visiting the dentist.
"You must have had a good
time." was suggested to him.
"'The dentist told me I kept my
mouth open too wide," said tha
faithfal secretary, "and I told him
it was the first' time I had ever been
accused of it."
Showing a Bad Example.
Stray Storii.
A g'roe'r who was noted for his
arefulness had an advertisement in
serted in a. local newspaper for a
messenger boy. and a young fellow
who understood the kind of a gen
tleman who was advertising came to
apply for the situation. and, while
the grocer was teling him how
eareful he must be, a. fly settled on
a bag of sugar and the grocer caught
it .a.nd threw it away. The boy then
said:
"If you want *ne to be careful you
are showing me a bad example."
"Why?" replied the former.
"Belcause," said the boy, "ou
iave thrown that fly away without
brushing the suga.r off its feet!"
End of a Friendship.
"I saw a pretty hosiery display
just now."
"Where? Where?'"
"Say, Snooks, you may consider' ]
rourself a humorist, but I do not.
Eenceforth, we are strangers. In j
