Our contemporary would make it np-
)>e*r that The State** advocacy of im*

olvlllsatloti. We are not and nevet
will be of those who believe that Caro
linians need that “ettconraging exam
ple” for Stare pride forbid* such
rending of our garmunt*. such dusting
of ashes upon our head. Tho fact that
« Carolina farmer made far the greatest
yield of corn erer known, that Caroli*
*« farmers grow the finest sea Island
cotton in the world, that a Carolina
farmer lias hafvested two hundred
buthels of oats and another forty two
buithel* of rye to the acre, that the roy*
ill Rden melon was perfected by a Car
olina farmer, thnt the truck farm* of
the seacoast and lower Carolina-out
plenty the valley of^ the Nile give a
tlrm foundation to our faith in the ca
pacity and courage of hwMding^ou^ pany emphasise
own solid and splendid prosperity with
out the overseeing and Ogdenlalng that
The State would have lit ask and
thankfully accept and pay for.
Knowing what tbe |>eoplo of the
South have accompli shod we have no
fear, not tho shade of the shadow of a
doubt that they will be equal to every
condition that the future years may
evolve.
TCTint mraiy leerni fair to Shlft -tn meeting of pottov hohtersto he +mW at
«*i
qnirementor material prosperity; nev-
erthele«s U ha* been frequently pointed
•nit In these columns that the coming
*>f the Immigrant from those pirt*
where the education of all the children
and observances of the laws were con
sidered as the rights of the people
would have an Inspiring effect on
Honth Camdlna. It w*« shown, ton,
that the farm of a thrifty foreigner
would be dn encouraging example, a*
welt Man-experiment station, for all
. the native neighbors.
The coming of the Immigrant will
make little direct difference to such
towns as Columbia, .Spartanburg, An*
deraon and Sumter. They, and a few
ssther* In the Bute, have acquired mo*
inontnm and they need no pushing
Yet are they keeping the faiths of the
PMt.
The Held* known best by The Bab*
will Pboplk, “from the Kdisto to the
Mavannah,” are doubtless pU>a«aht
* yields. No need for those so happ/ as
to abide therein to go seek the Klyslum;
they are there. But perchance there
are aeotton* where there are regions
where the forest la master of great
'stretches of delta rich river lauds;
where uplands are worn and poverty
atrloken, eaoh year being more wasted,
and where the scattered inhabitant*
have neither the force of Intelligence
nor the spirit of hope to cause them to
•nake one last stand against decadence.
It la there that children do not go to
•ehool;>there that they haye the op
portunlty of attending schools for hut
three or four month* in tho year. Can
those people, unaided, quickly work
out a noble destiny? Should they be
toUl to repel the Invader who comes
with Ideas and energy and who may
give Inspiration? The land of “happy
memories” that “forgets not the ease
end plenty” ahould net forget their
unfortunate brethren. To these leas
happy ones prosrwrity means much; it
•Imost mean* civilization and Chris
tianity. And we who advocate pros
perlty should net he chided, for It I*
rot accepted by all except politicians
that “whoever could mske two ears of
siorn, or two blades of gras* to grow
upon a spot of ground where only one
grew before, would deserve better of
mankind, and do more essential service
to bl* country .Than tbe whole race of
politician* put together.”
We tleeplr sympathise with Tux
PaorLB In It* bulging to wander far
from the madding crowd; In the city
there la endless toil. Who may slug
urban praises to the son of the woods
In voice that touches bis soul like unto
this: ' ^
•There la a pleasure in the pathless
woods;
There it a rapture on the lonely
shore;
There It society where none intrudes,
' By the deep sea. and music lu its
roar.”
But ltd* not In Divine decree (hat all
should wander In the pathless wood*.
There la work to be done. It Is Divine
Providence that this .would’# po,pu
latUm shall grow; that people eh all
move out of one country and lulo .wn
stther. And it is good that Wo should
grow with the world. Our people
move into other countries ami we wise
lr offer Inducements to good people of
<Uhor countries to conic among us.
We are not better than they; wo can
not raise walls about ua nud do our
projier part In the works of the world..
"We mnst rHeVdsh ‘ thn liannx-jauaft-
rlos” and preserve our honored tradl-
tiona, but we Would honor our fore-
tieara little If In pondering their
achievement* wo permitted our State to
lose the place they won. Kxalted place
In national life must now be achieved:
It cannot be inherited, and greatness

Aa to the questions propounded by
The Btste, our space today Is too limit
ed fqr elaborate answering. If it will,
after the fashion of the ofu field schools
of our boyhood, go over again and
learn to the bottom the lesson given
last week It will find, we submit, that
It misunderstood our meaning and
gave our argument construction un
warranted by Its wording.-
As to the Biblical injunction as to
work, we remember nothing In that
best of book* justifying the importa
tion <>f imiuigrunU to do the work of
quitters.
We have hope that the State will out
grow Ita eager boyishness and become
the staid and steady dependable coun
sellor that should satisfy It* beat ambi
tion. Were it not so we would not vex
it with tho reproof and instruction that
will hammer it into right shape.
We have no fault to llnd with the
good Intentions with which it* past
road is paved, but we remember that
Icarus flew too high on hi* wings of
wax and that Pha-thon drove the
horses of the sun too fast.
And we give you rest today with the
suggestion that as many medicines arc
now administered capsuled and sugar
coated, to the comfort of the patient,
and without loss of virtue, we have
sought to make our argument pleasant
to your taste. We regret thnt lack of
space limits the length of our lecture,
for it is a delightful task to teach the
young idea how to shoot.
P. 8. If wo have in our hurry over
looked any point call us to taw and we
will come again.
In the resolution of the StafeTen-
sion Hoard, published by request "lust
week. It wn* stated that ‘ a general Im
pression prevails throughout the State
that a great many per«ons are on the
pension roll who are not entitled to
pension* under the law.” nud that “all
good citizens of this State be request
ed, upon examining such lists, to re
port to the county pension boards any
undeserving pensioner on tho roll Ac.”
Its an old rnle that “wlia^-every-
hody’* business is nobody’s biulneAs,”
and it Is very sore that uo general, and
fair purging of the roll* will bo accom
plished on the plan suggested.
It occurs to us that it woifld he the
better wsy to require each county to
pay out of Us own treasury tho pen
sions due to bonetlclarios living within
its boundaries. The county pension
hoard* would be more particular lu
making up the rolls and those not en
titled to tho assistance would bo'slower
to make application for it, while the
deserving would be
their rights.

COTTON CROP CONDITIONS.
The Government crop report, issued
on tlie ltith Inst, says of cotton: ‘ In
the central and eastern district* of the
cotton lelt. good stand* and satlsfac-
torv growth of COttou U generally re
.ported.
Considerable planting remains to he
done in Kansas and in the northern
portions of LouManu, 3Ii**l**dppi and
Alabama, and planting is uuilnlslied in
the Carolina*.
Planting is almost completed in
Georgia, where the stand* aie excellent
and the plants arc healthy and grow
ing favorably.
In the Carolina*, Georgia, Alabama
and Arkahftu many Held* are foul.
In central and northern Texas plant
ing has been in further delay and the
crop, which. 1* very weedy, has been
much damaged by heavy rains and 1*
doing well over limited area* only.
In Southern Texas the condition of
cotton range* from falc-t» good and
much has been chopped and cultivated.
Boll weevils anti other pests are attack
ing the crops in localities.
ENLARGING USES OF COTTON.
Several months ago a Kansas milling
firm wrote to the Charleston Post sug-
ge«ting the larger use of cotton hag* a*
a means uf reducing the surplus and
keeping the price up. There ha* been
much discussion of the proposition and

“Mr.'George A. Wagener, President,
Dear Sir: Please give us information
about tbe cotton bag business, a* to the
sizes yoii*make and the cost-per 100

THE ADVICE VOLUNTEERS."
Since tho alump In the price of cotton
last Fall the farmora of the South have
received x~PtyrtTV I or kgviwrtrgttf tRf
wise and otherwise, the editor*, law
yers, bankers" bu*ines« mon generally
and If there are any other classes of hu
manity from them also.
The advice has brenjiractically unan
imous, that they cut down cotton
acreage and the use of fertilizer*..
And the one reason therefor’ad
vanced by all the advice givers was
that such a course would bo the only
one that would hold up the price of the
surplus on hand and keep that of the
coming crop from dropping to disas
trous lowness. A very good argument
it was and Is, hut thoro is another to be
considered. The more cotton that I*
planted the greater will be the scaicity
of Held labor, tb*» higher Its price and
the les* Its efficiency.
If farmer* at a whols class or as in
dividual units could see their ways
clear to diversify their crops, to dll
their barn* with corn, oat*, wheat and
forage there would be less demand for
the hoe brigades, less worry of body
and mind and very probabI%nnre prof
it at the annual settling ups.
But, some how or other, the idea
seem* to have taken deep root that the
.Southerner I* in duty and destiny
bound to make all tbe cotton possible
and jnzt enough other crops to squeeze
through with.
The scarcity of farm labor Is plain
ly and painfully evident In so many
grassy Helds U a present menace to the
“prosperity” of the South that I* not
likely to pas* with thn year, and the.
wise man will look the situation
squarely in the face and adopt the mn-t
rational means of bettering it. More
corn and small grain, forage and pas
turage, chicken* and fruit* will be the
prescription to bring wealth to
pocket and buppiaeu tv tbe heart*.
cotton if price* will permit.
“Wo earnestly hope tbe entire South,
as one man, w ill refuse to buy wheat,
corn, rice, barley, rye, potatoes, m?al,
grist, salt, guano, cotton seed- meal or
anything that can bo shipped In sacks
unless it Is in cotton, and that only
cotton bagging be used for bailing tbe
entire cotton crop. If we have to pay
more for it. In the end it will pay us
well Ih the advance that will come in
the price of our cotton. Please give us
your prices.” . ■
