Tin3 president has roi taiiily succeeded in crcat.ii if; mint her bimihhtion He has achieved the moat estraordinnry ini'SHHtje ever emanated from the White House?a pej forni'mce entirely unique. It treats of matters which no president ever before l eoonimended to the attention of congress, and in the wriiino of half of it he seems to have been mesmerized l>y Parboii Warner and Jacob Riis. Perliapa all of his theories are humane and some of them are practicable, but he HUKnebtH action concerning ntiinv iiuittcrs \v I i l oil t on n tin tiikon in hand only by 8tub* legislatures. Think of u president's message on life insurnnce, tin* price of beef steak, child labor, alley sluing, race suicide, Hchool trqnjicy, wifebeating *<nd the whipping-post. He earnestly calls upon congress to guard against extravagance and recommends an increase of appropriations. Ileia for peace, arbitration, and a great navy. Ho declares that it is'contetuptible "for a nation to use high-sounding language to proclaim its purpose" nulcHS it is.able to back up the language. But why should any nation use "huih-soundnu; lanHo says (haviiur Colombia in mind) "It in not truw that the United States feels any land hunger or entertains any projects toward other natioMH of the western hemisphere huvo such as are for their welfare " But lie careful ' Jv avoids telling ua who iH to be the judge of this. It recalls the lion in La Fontaine's fable who admitted having eaten sheep for their good and declared that in Jthup ipdicintr them lie had "done them too much honor." The mesnaire is a congeries and roncHtenation of unrelated ideas. Was it not Goethe who constructed the last volnmo of Wilhelm Meister out of the sweepings of his study triple? ()f the taritf the president SnyH not a word, hut. its absence, like the omission of the bust of Cato trout the triumphal pageant of Rome, is more conspicuous than its presence would have boen.

Of the questions concerning public policy which are treated it is admitted that the President has dealt frankly and without reserve. None will agree with all his reo mnmeudatiodh but criticism is not very vigorous. Whether or not the shooting of1 the colored woman at a house on I 1<t. wd li ul ro.d ti F * ti7 tiiirlrtu niro . III oil *?<-?. ?1 "K" should prove fatal, it is to be hoped that the town authorities will make n thorough investiga- I tion of conditions which have ex- j isted for Homo time among the ! colored residents of tin's particular street. The carousals indulged ; in very frequently by this class ! of people has become nauseating j in the extreme to the white resi- i dents and for the sake of doeoncy I something should be done to rid j the Htroel of such nu since. Clean j out the "dens" and receive the | thanks of the respectable white people of that section of the towu. Governor Hey ward has acted wisely in opposing a chnngo in ' |he present law fixing the age at which children may he employed in the mills of this Stute, and The 'i iuies wishes to join the list of State papers which have commended this action of tlio chief executive. Within the next two yeara the ago limit under the present law will he raised to twelve years }?ud this should prove satisfactory.

So far it is uiiirt thut tlio 11hlihub get along peaceably beeido the negro and have little to do with tliein, but if the displacement develops into what the plant* j era expect it will, and the negroes crowd excessively into the cities, there ia no doubt that the negro question will affiici the Southern J people in a etill more acute form. : There ia danger, indeed, that a j new racial conflict will ultimately : develop between the t^atin and negro races. Iu getting rid of the ! negro labor on tire plnntationa the j South will have another race to ileal with, which bns a tendency to combination and a tondency to acquire land, and which may prove more intractable than the longsuffering negro.'' Indeed, The .Jonrnnl nnswers its own proposition about ''crowding the negro out qf the agricultural , labor market by tjie introduction j ot the white laboring oIkbh.'* when it speuks in tbe same editorial of thy ilrift of ne^ro. labor to cities and town*, its k^owic^ itisutlicienry in agriculture and I be losses in the cotton-pjokiiitf season because of tbe deficiency of workers; to tbe better wofk done by Italians, the economies practiced by them and their tendency to buy land as rapidly as tbey ure able. If there is any crowding out of tbe npuroes from agriculture tbey uloue are responsible for it. Thousands have undoubtedly left tbe farms because i of higher wanes obtainable in ruil; road construction, mining, lumbering, cotton-seed manufacture and other industries, and other thousands have drifted to towns and cities under the spur of natural instinct to live with tbe least exertion. instead of beiutf crowded I out the "lopg-sutjferiug negro" has j been in demand by whiles who, ! lor a generation or more, have, in the absence of anything better, been obliged to pat up with labor constantly tending to greater inefficiency under the influence of misguiding educational methods. The incoming to the South of whites inspired with the desire aud purpose to become land owners at their enrliest opportunity is a blessing. Unless the movement of negroes to Southern cities and I towns on their way to the North ; and West, is checked, their places i in the field will be permanently 1 tilled bv whiten the mnro rlaairnhl^ J class because they will not he content to occupy for long the deppndfiit statue which satisfies tho average negro. In twenty-five or fifty years, according to circumstances, there may come a time when the negro in some localities may begin to feel the competition of the more ambitious new-comers. Whether the negroes will then he crowded out will depend entirely upon the negroes themselves.?T'nionTimes The Qroatatt Statesman. Rev. Sam J jnes, who is a very close observer of men and ovents, in discussing the results of the recent election says: "There must be a reorganization and readjust, metit of things. Mr. hryan is not only the greatest personality on this continent, but, I believe, he is all in a!!, the greatest statesman on this continent. If he is wise and judicious, he can, and, I believe t?e will, lead a victorious |>arty four vearu honce. After such a victorv ~ J an the Republicans had had they are going to wind up iu four years with a Belshnzzer's feast* and Dry an will he the Daniel who will read the handwriting on the wall, "Thou art weighed in the balance and found wanting." When the I)em<>craiH claim to come back to safety and sanity, and adopted pretty much all the principles of the Republican party platform they pulled off from Bryan and Bryanisni, yet Bryan threw himself in the breach, and not only spoke with sinocrety and honesty, but he spoke to more people everywhere than when he was rnnnimr j for the presidency himself. There ! is magic in his name. He has something to say to the common j people, and they hear him, uot I only gladly, but by the millions. I nm not a free silver man, but 1 am a Bryan man from this time on. and I verily believe that he will be the next president following Roosevelt, and Teddy says he don't want it after the next term."

A Washington apeclnl to the News and Courier says that Congressman Fitiley, in a letter to the ' geological survey, has called at- 1 ! tention to the splendid opportune- | ! ties for water power development ; afforded by the 5th district, which j he represents. lie thinks that not less than 200.000 horse power can he developed on its numerous streams, ami urges that more de- j flilii*fl Difnt'Mltit inn nnn/'orni ...r tl.u ' I j !

The hydrogrnpliic branch of the ; geological survey is engaged ill .; collecting data on this important r stibjoct and is giving particular at- ; tention to several portions of $j(e | 5th tiistriot.

An exchange makes the follow; ing well timed and sensible comment on the past, present and future of tho dispensary: "Amid all this discussion of the ' dispensary and whiskey question, would it not bo well to be considering some solution of this vexa- J tious problem? Suppose the dis- i peusary law is repealed, what then? , Are we to have prohibition or free whiskey? That the coiniiiLT sos- ' sion of the legislature will attempt to change the present status of af fairs, we have no doubt. Lint what course they will pursue is what i lsbotheriug us nmst. This is the [ time for censervulive and wise ac- i lion, and men should not be h-d away by prejudice. We have no pet tfchetne to offer, but we are afraid that our last state will br { worse than the tiist unless this matter is taken hold of earnestly. | with the purpose to do whaf is' best for the w<;lfaie of the State. ! Speaking for this newspaper, and it alone, wo have always been n j j friend of the dispensary, but at no ; time in itH administration have we j been unmindful of its good or had J features. But the trouble is not so much with the law as with its enforcement. Honestly conducted, with the restrictive features rigidly enforced, it is without ! d< hi l?t 111 it svklnin Wii ii in 'liL-ii. i ! ly to get for the control of the i liquor trnllio. But there's the rub. That it has been clouded with susi picion through all these years, and i the restrictions tenidng to decrease the sale of liquor have been almost ignored, counts nothing against the system. But the cry is "clear it of suspicion or kill it." Can it be cleared of suspicion and gain the respect and support of the people, or will it go down under a cloud which will rest upon the , whole State?" The Collection of Taxes. According to reports, County Treasurer Neely is kept busy nowadays receiving tax money. Tin rich and poor, high and low, are calling at his office to make their tax settlements. The time for straight taxes- wilt < expire after December ,'ilst, and those who fail to make settlement | ! before tliut date will be required ; to pay n pennlty of one per cent if i payment in made during January. taxes are not paid until February a penalty of two per cent will [ be added and if settlements are made between March 1st and 15th the penalty will be seven per cent. After March loth the tax books will pass out of the hands of the ttensurer and warrants will be issued by the auditor agaitiBt all delinquents. The collection of taxes this fall has been nroi/ressim/ in m mnut ! satisfactory manner. ?? - Reduced Rates Via Sautkara Railway Acoonnt of the Christmas holidays the Southern railway will sell round trip tickets to uii points east of the Mississippi and south of the Potomac rivers at the low rate of one and a third fares for the round trip, tickets on sale December 23, 24, 25, 3^ and January 1st, good returning until January 4th, 1905.

Spanish War Claims 11 is not likely now that the claims against the government ( contracted by citizens of this state 1 during the Spanish war will be ' paid any time soon, says the Co- , lmubia Record. Mr. W. Boyd Evans, who has charge of the mat- i ter for this state, this morning said ! that on aeoount of the difficulty in j securing the signatures to the ( claims from the claimants and the < fact that the state government could not take any official action iu the matter without a special act ( of the legislature rendered the navinent #?*< >i*rtin?rtw i Tho CTnitecJ Stales government!' will only pay tin* claims through ' the state government.

The sign which was painted 1 on an barrel stave, bore the legend, "'Cold Snakes at All Hours," but inveatigation sho'vod that "snacks" was the meaning the artist intended to convey.
