week we received from tbvi man-
editor of one of the tnoir popular
farm paper* In the dotilh • letter that
w« have been atrongly tempted to re-
produce, But a* that might be con
sidered a violation of newapaper ethic*
we reaiet the flr»t 8ootch-Irl*h-\VeUh
lapulee to to tmlte our big brother
With btl own boomerang, a* we think
wo can give him a solar plexus reply
Without revealing hi* Identity.
TOO publication (controlled by the
aforatald managing editor) ha* one
hundred and fifty thousand subreribers
In the South. To average human am
bition It would aeera that no man could
iCCk larger power or broader and bet
ter opportunity to be of service to the
people of his own section, of Id* own
order, who have put their trust In him
to tha extent of welcoming hi* month
ly aa a fNend and champion into I ju,-
000 Southern home*.
To the average undemanding of hu
man capacity the retpomibllity of be
ing teacher, gu Me and guardisu to so
many thousands would press with well
sigh crushlt.g weight and burden upon
the brain of a managing editor occu
pylng such a position.
Loyalty to his own people, to the
host* to which hi* monthly Uvties go,
would seem to compel the coii»ccr*tlnn
of every atom of his mental and physi
cal strength to their protection and
betterment.
But the managing editor atoretald 1*
not content with hi* opportunity, doe*
not aeem to realUr the *lmo«t sacred
mission before him. In addition to
hit euhacrlption circulation he has sent
out HO.llOO cople* of s ‘•(’nrop Hnuth

bringing Into the S <uth from the North
Central and North tVe«trrn Ki*t<*

that the pretence of the ritht • rt <>f

to yours and our* individual!)" we

Would the morality and the purliv
of (he people of the land we love and
tha political unity that have safeguard-
ad the South during all the transition*
of the last half century he maintained
when a people of whose principles and
practices we know so little are brought
Into our midst ?
Can’t you see. Mr, Managing Editor,
that If your programe should* be car
ried out the'compeiitiou for the neces
sities of life in tbe South w ould become
akin to the poverty of the over crowd
ed hives of the hopeless old world?
Don’t you know that the crowding of
Immigrant trains from the sections you
worship Into the 8ourh would open a
new Eldorado to the laud shark, the
soulless business adventurer, the com
binations of capital as cold and linrd
and hearties* a* the yellow gold god
they worship^
Read the books of the Exodus, Mr,
Managing Editor, and see that the
short three months journey from Egypt
to tbe Promised Land lengthened out
to a march of forty years and of all
that started noire crossed the Jordan
and tasted of the fruits waiting them.
They went astray because they fol
lowed the teachings of false prophets
and perished In the deserts because of
thair blind following of sightless lead
ers. Brace up and be . strong, Mr.
Managing Editor. Renew your faith
!n tbe young manhood and woman
hood of the Routb.
Goto (he State and County Fairs
and ;oa will see that there are coming
to maturity boys and maidens In
abundant number to occupy every acre

Every business and professional man
oan and should help the farmers to
know that the Fair L first, last and all
the time for their benefit:
"The primary object of a county fair
Is, or should be, the development of
the county along agricultural lines.
Such gatherings afford a splendid op
portunity for the farmers to rub * Ibows
and learn from one another the meth
ods which they have found most con
ducive to success. Experience is a
great teacher and the Interchange of
Ideas along practical lines should he of
benetlt to any man, however success
ful. Every other feature of the fair
should be subordinated to this. ()t

traction* for the amusement of the
crowd* in order to attract a sulllident
number of people to meet the expenses
of such undertakings, but the great
idea which underlies these fair* is the
Improvement of agricultural methods.
Only farman are ntulitled to properly
advise fartnera and it should be, mid
generally la, a pleasure for those who
have aucceeded in farming to fr««'ly j

down Whitehall street and entered

toria's statue opposite Buckingham
palace, I stopped to look at it I no
ticed a man standing before the statue
admiring it and asked him If he could
tell any Interesting facta concerning
its construction. He replied very civ
illy and proved quite an admirable
guide. He was evidently not a polish

" ’Er majesty,” be said, "was one of
the finest sovereigns that hever lived.
Hi was in the public service under 'er

reign, though that 'appiness was con
tinued under the reign of 'er gracious
sou King Hedward.”
■•Hid your office bring you in con
tact at all with the queen?"
"Hi! In contact with 'er majesty!
Not III, sir. Hi never sor 'er except
when she was bout hairing. But Hi
wits hoften at court, sir."
‘ Had you duties there?"
"No, sir. Ill 'ad no duties at court;
Hi went there to see the notables,
sir.”
"I presume you conld give bits of in-
furniatiim about many royal and end

"Yes, sir. Ili’ve seen Justice B. often
and Justi. e W. occasionally and many
of the most heminent barristers In
England.”
"Army magnates?"
"Ni.i, sir Hi never met any army
officer. But III once met a parson. HI

"In u Ini t w ay ?”
"IIi* was doin' too much talkin’. Very

It has been well said that the man
who can make two blades of gra-a
grow where one grew before i- a bene
factor to humanity. That applies to n
stock raising country, but the cotton
tut will not endorse such gospel.
But all men of all sane occupations
should applaud and approve the ex
ample and achievement of young farm
er Claude McDonald of the new coun
ty of Dillon.
In 1911 he made on an acre 210 bnsli-
elg and 82 pounds of corn. From the
same acre this year he gathered 2'M
bushels and 10 pounds. Sueh-a hoy N
worth a whole acre of politicians to
the State. There are many of his
character and calibre in this State that
would make good if given a chance of
ao doing'. They would stay In the eld
homes and keep from behind counters
and cigarettes.

•tned terribly shocked.
I w is not osixmlnlly edtfled by this
litter I'ort of his chat, though before
he ct on to It he talked aenaltily
* 'i" 1 1l; 11. so I thankerl him for the in-
' . it. n he had given me and start
ed away, saving
"I expert to go to court soon. Per
haps I shall have some attention from
)"U there in your official capacity.*’
"Hi shall try to make it easy aa
l"'ssiMe fur you, sir, If yon da"
Tliis added so largely to my cmios-
i’y that I was sorry I had not aaked
him thy nature of the position he held,
lie was not a gentleman and likely
w.iiild n il have taken It amiss. How
ever, It was now too late.
Some time after this I was walking
on Oxford street with my friend Har
grave. a Londoner, when I taw ap-
pr.'aching the man I had met at the
statue. It did not occur to me to ask
Hargrave who he was, for I had no
idea he would know.
"Do you see this man coming?” ask
ed Hargrave.
"Yes."
"He's Calcraft, the hangman.’’
Then I understood the man’s refer
ences to court—that be meant a legal
court instead cf a royal court. I ap-
preeiated his horror as a loyal sabject
of Queen Victoria at the Idea of put
ting a rope around his sovereign’s
neck even in stone. But I was more
especially affected at the remembrance
of his words when I told him I ex
pected to go to court soon, "HI shall
try to make It as easy as possible for
you, sir.”
Since that memorable interview 1
have never passed Queen Vlctorla’a
statue without thlnSlng of Calcraft and
the court fo which he belonged.
