The ultimate purpose of this Immi
gration department of our State Is to
Increase the good population. To keep
desirable people from quitting South
Carolina would surely be a better way
than to bring unknown quantities Inta
the State and to trust to luck that they
will come up to expectations. So far,
as tbs general pubtto knows, not a
wo-d has been said or a deed been does
to keep South Carolinians at boms, be
yond the laws agalnat Immigration
agents, whtrk Were designed to keep
cotton mill operatives add cotton field
worker* from quitting the State.
Now, If Commissioner Watson can
find warrant under the law end hi*
commission, let him try to satisfy dis
satisfied Carolinians, keep them here,
and to bring back those that have
wandered across Its borders. Pht

this Is, how deslrpus Its government
to fill up its waste places, and the In
ducements offered. Many of those
who have gone out of the State do not
know as much about It at Is told in

never tried to Inform them. It has not

children of opr fathers. We have
many hard problems to solve, but we
have met and are meeting new condi

Raise high our glorious banner/eoil-
ed the' it be try the touch of alien

daughters of tha South,' -rallying
.about It, will put to shame all murder
er# and slanderers and ne'er-do-wells.
Let our leaders spend their energy In
training, by precept and example, our
young men to appreciate the dignity of
labor Instead of wasting themselves in
efforts to secure anr Ignorant, turbulent
foreign horde and we'shall very soon
reach beyond our former proud place
among the States. The day haa come
when the sons and daughters of Caro

An idealist see* the vision from afar

Continue your good work by exhort-

A BETTER WAY.
Only In the most complimentary
terms as to his fine character and ca
pacity have we heard Commissioner
Watson spoken of. The testimony of
all that know him, whether advocates
•f. Indifferent to or directly opposed to
Imroigratlou agrees that there Is noj a
man In the Btate better fitted to fill the
oAce. Yet with all his Intelligence
•ad. activity he has accomplished no
striking or aatiefactory result*. The
obstacles are too great. Except among
•be few who have axes to grind, land
toaall ortobe cultivated, there la no
call ef consequence for Hnmlgrant*.
Thrifty people, the sort that the Itnmi
gratlon enthusiasts think wanted, are

tially advantageous to those directly
affected, to the community they belong

and even the nation aa a whole. Let
us look for a little moment, very Inad
equately of course, at the immigration
question.
To-day the Sonth Is the hope of the
nation. Do not smile at this and at
tribute It to the enthusiasm of a native
of that aeallpn, a lover of It* people. Its
history. Its tradition* .and Its aspira
tions. It is’4. QOtd fact, even If you
cannot get acknowledgement of It free
ly and frankly, and It stacks out among
the high and honest thinker* of even
tills section ; is openly admitted by the
foremoat of them who unite Indepen
dence to a passion for truth. In con
firniMtion of this, recall the recent
speech of that great son of Mnssachu
setts. lion. Samuel McCall, before the
Legislature of Louisiana. Now,
that is so, what Is wanted Is to pre
serve In all strength and vigor the
characteristic* ef the South—not

strange habits, tastes, convictions, to

find that section subject to the same
evils it seeks relief from what might be
done In a few years, as conditions are
now, must wait for—who shall say
how long? Who shall say if not for
ever?
If the South is willing to pay the
penalty of unrestricted Immigration, it
can surely make more money, build
more palaces of business, put man;

with the sound of hammer and saw and

Now, for a glance at the other ques
tion—“Should young men who avail
themselves of free college educations
provided by their State reimburse the
Bute for tbe cost thereof?”
Agreeing with you, I say yes, em
phatically yes. Because it is right and
just, and because It Is to the young
man’s advanUge.
Practically everyone agrees that it Is
good for a young man starling in life
to hawe a burden to carry. Not too
heavy a load, something adjusted to his
strength; in fact only what will con

President Harvle Jordan has Issued an ad
dress op the cotton situation. Tbe loyalty of
Southern business people generally has
brought alxnit the present better conditions
and the brighter promise of the future.
Unless there is speedy improreraent in the
ootton crop the supply for 1908 will fall far
short of demand and prices will go much
higher. Abnormally high prices will b« as
dtoastroOsforJbe future as abnormally low
prices and all producers should discourage
-speculative Interests tha* would try to drive
the price above 1J cents and no farmer should
ever again sell a pound of middling cotton
below 10 cents. The South holds a complete
monopoly of the cotton industry of the world
up to 13 cents.
It is bad policy in the farmers to sell cotton
for delivery in the future, as the market
would be deluged, prices would break and
those who must sell would be injured. Mar
ket slowly ahd do not go Into speculative
nroiMwltloMc^-. - — ml _ ' ,
The rapid development of a cotton ware
house system is absolutely essential to the
best system of marketing cotton for high
prices and the matter should be pushed at ev
ery ootton point In the South.
It is now imperative that the membership
of the Association be built up in each county.

Confederate army, among them being
General Pryor, Colonel Martin, Colonel
Tibbs and General Hetskell. Some
have held high public station since the

With the individual life, the stomach
may well represent the “guard”

digestive juices, or else driven from the

Everyone with weak digestion should

This remarkable remedy put* the whole

Commence now by ploughing and
thoroughly pulverizing a good piece of

In good condition put on all the ma

and plough it in with small turn plow

to have the land well pulverized and

You should run a cultivator or disc
