the Nation. Every Woman
Should Read It.
Passed hyjflenj. ^ooge^i^ delivered an adSessiofbefore
the Congress of Mothors
.Ahington last week, which every
' an should read. We give the enire
speech below:
N ( In our modorn Industrial civilization
jjiere are many and grave dangers to
co&Lerbalanoe the splendors and the
trlumplis It Is not a good thing to see
cities grow at a disproportionate speed
relatively to the country; for the small
land ownors, the men who own their
little homes, and therefore to a very
large extent the men who till farms,
the man of the soil, having hitherto
made the foundation of lasting national
life In every State; and, If the
foundation becomes either too weak
or too narrow, the superstructure, no
matter how attractive, Is In eminent
danger of falling.
Hut far more Important than the
question of the oooupatiou of cur citizens
is the question of how their family
life is conducted. No matter what
that occupation may be, as long as
there is a real home and as long as
those who make up that home do their
duty to one another, to their neigh
tjors and to the State, It Is of minor
const quence whether the man's trade
Is plied In the country or in the city,
whether It calls for the work of the
hands or for the work of the head.
VALUE OF TIIK FAMILY DOME.
Hut the nation Is hi a bad way if
there Is no real home, if the family Is
not of the right kind; If the man is
not a good husband and father, if lie
is brutally or cowardly or st ilish, if the
woman has lost tier sense of duty, if
she is sunk in vapid self Indulgence or
has let her nature be twisted so thai
she Drefers a nui.nHr?.tttn?iiort
luallty to that great and beautiful development
of character which comes
only to those whose lives know the
fullness of duty done, of effoit made
and self-sacriiice undergone.
In the last analysis the welfare of
the Slate depends absolutely upon
whether or not the averaKe family, the
average man and woman and their
children, represent the kind of citizenship
tit for the foundation of a great
nation; and if ?we fail to appreciate
this we fail to apprc elate the rem
morality upon which all health civlligation
is based.
No piled up wealth, no splendor of
material growth, no brilliance of artistic
development, will permanently
avail any people unless its home life is
healthy, unless the average man possesses
honesty, courage, common
sense, and decency, unless he works
hard and is willlug at need to tight
hard; and unless the average woman
Is a good wife, a good mother, able
and willing to perform the tirst and
greatest duty of womanhood, able and
...llli ~ i '
wining iu uear, fina 10 Dring up as they
should be brought up, healthy child
_ reu, sound In^body, mind, and charivcter%^ppd?numcr6us
enough so that
the nation shall Increase and not decrease.
MAN TUB HHKAUWjNNtil!..
There? -cftTf&in old truths that
" VTTTTSe true as long as this world en
dures, and which no amount of progress
can alter. One of these is the
truth that the primary duty of the
husband is to be home maker, the
bread winner for his wife and childdren,
and that the primary duty of
the woman Is to be the helpmeet, the
house-wife and mother. The woman
should have ample educational advantages;
but save in exceptional cases
the man must be and she need not be,
and generally ought not to be, traln^
ed as tife lifelong career as the family
~T>?$adwlnner; and, therefore, after a
certain point the training of the two
must normally be different because
the duties of the two arc normally different.
This daes not mean inequality
of function, but it dues mean that normally
there must be dissimilarity of
function. On the whole, 1 think the
duty of the woman the more important,
the more difficult and the more
honorable of the two; on the whole 1
respect the woman who does her duty
more than I respect the man who does
his.
No ordinary work done by a man is
either as hard or as responsible as the
work of a woman who is bringing up
a family of small children; for upon
her time and strength demands are
made not only every hour of the day
excry nour or tne night. ane may
"nave to get up night after night to
take care of a Kick child, and yet must
by day continue to do all her household
duties as well; and If the family
means are scant she must usually en
joy even her rare holidays taking her
whole brood of children with her. The
birth pangs make all men the debtors
of all wou en. Above all our sympathy
and regard are due to the struggling
wives among those whom Abraham
'Lincoln called the plain people, and
whom he so loved aDd trusted; for the
lives of these women are often lead
on the ltnely heights of Quiet, selfsacrificing
heroism.
DOt* DUTY OF MOTIIKItHOOD.
Just as the happustand most bonFioftorftblc
and most useful task that can
(>oonbe>?t any man is to earn enough for
GreenvfQ support of his wife and family, for
Greenwt bringing up and starting iu life
Hampton,j#. children, so the most imporHorry
. most honorable and desirable
Kersh^&g whicu can be set any woman Is to
Lancer a good and wise mother in a home
Lturebarked by self-respect and mutual
Lee . .forbearance, by willingness to perform
Lexhgtuty, and by refusal to sink into self
M*** indulgence or avoid that whioh entails
" effort and self-sacrlfloe. Of course
there are exceptional men and excep1
tional women who can do and ought
to do muoh more than this, who can
* lead and ought to lead great careers

ual amusement and the avoidance of j

to furnish with the least possible ex- <

comfort and of luxury, but In whloh
there 1b literally no place for ohlldren.
NO OKIHKLDA TYPE
The woman who Is a good wife, a
{ood mother, is entitled to our respect
as is no one else; but she Is entitled to
it only because, and so long as, she 1m
worthy of It. Effort and Belf saorifioe
arc the law of worthy life for the man
as for the woman; tbi ugh neither the
effort nor the self sacrifice may be the
same for the one as for the other. # 1
do oot in the least believe in the patient
Qrlselda type of woman, in the
woman who submits to gross and long
continued 111 treatment, any more
than 1 believe in a man who tamely
submits to wrongful aggression. No
wrong-doing is so abhorrent as wrong
doing by a man towards the wife ai.d
the children who should arouse every
tender feeling in his nature. Selfishness
towards them, lack of tenderness
towards them, lack of consideration
for them, above all, biut&lity in any
form towards them, should arouse the
heartiest scorn and Indignation In
every upright soul.
I believe In the woman's keeping
tier self-respect just as 1 believe in the
man's doing so. I believe In her rights
just as much as 1 believe in the man's
and indeed a little more; and 1 regard
marriage as a partnership, in whloh
each partner Is in honor )>ound to
thiuk of the rights of the other as well
as of his or her own. Hut I think that
the duties are even more important
than the rights; and in the long run 1
think that the reward is ampler and
greater for duty well done, than for
the lnslster.ee upon individual rights
necessary though this, too, must often i
be. Your duty Is hard, your re pan- 1
nihility great; but greatest of all Is
your reward. I do not pity you in the
least. Oa the oontrary, 1 feel respect
and admiration for you. <
DON'T WASTE AKKKOTIPN. '
Into tho woman's keeping is committed
the destiny of the generations
to come after us. In brluu'lm/ un
>our children you mothers must re
member that while It is essential to
be loving aud tender it Is no ie s !
essential to be wise and firm. Fool
lshiiesH and affection must not be
treated as interchangeable terms; and
besides training your sons and daughters
lu the softer aud milder virtues
you must seek to give them those
stern and hardy qualities which in
after life they will surely need. Some
johildn n will go wrong in spite or the
best training; and some will g > right
even when their surroundings are
most unfortunate; nevertheless an immense
amount dr ponds upon the
family traiuing. If you mothers
through weakness bring up your sons
to be seltl-.li and to think only for
themselves, you will bo responsible
for much sadness among the women
who are to be their wives in the future.
If you let your daughters grow
up idle perhaps under the impression
that as you yourselves have had to
work hard they shall know only en
joyment, you are preparing them to
be useless to others and burdons to
themselves. Teach boys and girls
alike that they are not to look for
ward to lives spent in avoiding dilll
cultles but to lives spent in overc iming
difficulties. Teach them that
work, for themselves and also for oth
ers, is not a curse but a blessing; seek
to make them happy, to make them
enjoy life, but seek also to make them
face life with the steadfast resolution
to wrest success from labor and adversity,
and to do their whole duty
before God and to man. Sumlv
I ?hn oan thus train her sons aad her
daughters Is thrloe fortunate among
> women.
TIIB HLKS8INO UK CHILDREN.
There are many good people who
' are denied the supreme blessing of
! children, and for these we have the
1 respect and sympathy always due to
, those who, from no fault of their own,
are denied any of the othor great
1 blessings of life. But the man or
woman who deliberately foregoes
these blessings, whether from vlolous1
ness, shallow^ heartedness, s.df-lndulgence,
or mere failure to appreciate
aright the difference between the all
Important and the unimportant?
why, such a creature meritsoontempt
as hearty as any visited upon the sol
dier who runs away in battle, or upon
the man who refuses to work for the
support of those dependent upon him,
and though able-bodied Is yet content
to eat in Idleness the bread whioh
others provide.
The existence of women of this type,
forms one of the most unpleasant and
unwholesome features of modern life.
If any one Is so dim of vision as to
fail to see what a thoroughly unlovely
creature such a woman Is 1 wish they
would read Judge Ilobert Grant's
novel "Unleavened Bread." ponder
seriously the character of Selma, and
think of the fate that would surely
overcome any nation which developed
Its average and typical woman along
such lines. Unfortunately It would
be untrue to say that this type exists
only In American novels. That it
only exists In American life Is made
unpleasantly evident by the statistics
as to the dwindling families evident
in equally sinister fashion by the
oensi.s statistic* as to divorce, which
are fairly appalling; for easy divorce
is now as It ever has been, a bane to
any nation, a curse to society, a men
ace to the home, an Incitement to
married unhapplness and to immorality,
an evil thing for men and a
still more hideous evil foi women.
These unpleasant tendencies in our
American life are made evident by
articles Such as those whloh 1 actually
read not long ago in a certain pa
per, where a clergyman was quoted,
seemingly with approval, as expressing
the general American attitude
when he said that the ambition of
any save a very rich man should be to
rear two ohildren only, so as to give
his ohildren an opportunity "to taste
a few of t>ho good things of life."
VIOIOU8 DOCTRINE.
This man, whose profession and
calling should have madebim a moral
teacher, aotually set before others
the ideal, not of training ohildren to
do their duty, not of sending them
forth witb 8tout hearts and ready
minds to win trlumpths for themselves
and their country, not of allowing
them the opportunity, and
giving them the privilege of making
their own place In the world, but,
forsooth, of keeping the number of
ohildren so limited that they might
"taste a few good things!" The way
to give a child a fair ohanoe in life Is
not to bring It up in luxury, but to
see that It has the kind of training
that will give It strength of oharaoter.
Even apart from the vital ques
'Jon of natlocuU life, and regarding
mly the Individual interest of tiie
children themselves, happiness in the
urue sense is a hundredfold more apt 1
co oome to any given member of a
healthy family of healthy-minded
children, well brought up, well educated,
but taught that they must
win their own way, and by their own
Bxertions make their own positions of
usefulness, than It is apt to come to
those whose parents themselves have
acted on and have trained their chtl
dreu to act on, the seltlsh s>rdld
theory that the whole end of life la
"to taste a few good things."
The intelligence of the remark is
on a par with its morality, for the
most rudimentary mental process
would have shown the speaker that if
the average family In which there are
children contained but two ohildreu
the nation as a whole would decrease
lu population so rapidly that in two
or three generations it would very deservedly
be ou the point of extinction,
so that the people who bad acted on
this base and seltlsh doctrine would
be glveu place to others with braver
and more robust Ideals. Nor would
such a result be lu any way regrettable;
for a race that practiced such
doctrine?that is, a race that practiced
race suicide?would there by conclusively
show that It was unlit to
exist, and that it had better give
place to people who had not forgotten
the prlmrry laws of their being.
IT'S AI.I, SIMl'LK KNOUOlt.
To sum up, then, the whole matter
is Bimple enough. If either a race or
an Individual prefers the pleasures or
mere effortless ease, of self Indulgence,
to the infinitely deeper, the infinitely
Inevitably in the end pay the peualty
who know tho toil and the weariness,
but also the Joy, of hard duty
well done, why, that race or that
Individual must have higher pleasures
that oome to those leading
a life both vapid and igneb'e.
No man and no woman really
worthy of the name can care for the
life spent solely or chl. lly in the
avoidance of risk and trouble and
laoor. Save In exceptional cases the
prlzis worth having In life must he
paid for, and the life worth living
must be a life of work lor a worthy
end, and ordinarily of work more for
jmio's man ior one's seir.
Tne man Is but a poor creature
whose effort Is 11 >l rath r for tile betterment
of his wife and children than
for himself; ai.d as for the mother,
her very name sta ds, for loving un
leltishmsi and self-abnegation, and,
In any soctet> tio to exist, Is fraught
with a-isoclatloi s which render it holy.
The woman's task Is nut easy?no
task worth doing Is easy?but in d )
lug it, and when she bas done it,
there shall come to her the
highest and holiest joy known
to mankind; and having done
it, she shall have the reward
prophesied In Scripture; for her husband
and her children, ye<, and ail
people who realize that her work lies
at the foundation of all national hap
plness and greatness, shall rise up and
call her blessed.
Htolu a Horse and HukKVMr.
John Ulmer had his horse and
buggy stolen from him on Saturday
night, while in Orangeburg. Mr.
Uimer lives a few miksfrom the City,
in the East Orange section, and was
detained until after dark Saturday
night In Orangeburg. He had his
horse hitched on the street, and a negro
came along and appropriated the
outtit. Tne matter was reported to
the police department, and Onlef
Fischer telephoned to all nearby
towns to be on the look out. Sunday
afternoon word came that the horse
and buggy had been located near
Cope, and Instructions were Issued to
arrest a negro by the name of Dykes
for the stealing. Accordingly lie was
arrested, although against his will,
and Is now In "limbo." The hor^e
and buggy will be returned to Mr.
f T I - _ T a ? _ , % . * -
uiuier. it is saia mat uykes was In
Orangeburg Saturday night, and de
sired to take a negro woman along
with him to the neighborhood of
Cope, where Dykes was living, lie
did not own a horse and btiggy, so
simply appropriated Mr. Ulmer's outtit
He told the woman that the
team belong to him, evidently desirous
of making an Impression on her.
The horse and buggy were recognizee*
from descriptions sent out from Orangeburg,
and the apprehension of
Dykes resulted.
A llaoo lUot.
A special from Lake Village, Ark.,
says a pitched battle was fought between
a sheriff's pobse of white men
and three negroes suspected of mur
der on the shore of the lake near that
town, Tuesday afternoon, two of the
blacks being killed outright and C. D.
Ower.s, manager of the Red L^af
plantation, wounded In the arm. The
third negro escaped to the woods
Bloodhounds were seut for and put
upon the fugitive's trail. It is believed
that he will bo taken before morning.
The bodies of the negroes were taken
to Lake Village and placed in the
county Jail where they were viewed
by large crowds. Recently two brothers
named Watson were murdered
near Dumas, Ark., and the three negroes
were said to have pariiolpited
in the crime.
Killed hy a Hot)
?At Long View, Texas, Julius Stevens,
a negro imprisoned in the j ill
cnarged with assault up n Carl An lerson
at a saw mill near that place, was
snot to death Tuesday in his cell by a
mob. The mob entered the Jail ano
forced the Jailer to deliver trie Key
to the upper compartment From
there they called the negro to the
front of his cell, telling him their in
tentlon. The negro aske i and re
celved permission to write to his mother,
returning to tne cell door, where
he fe.l with a 44 calibre pistol bullet
through the heart. Everything is
quiet there Wednesday. The negro
Is supposed to be from Birmingham,
Ala. Anderson, who It is asserted
was struck from behind by the negro,
Is in a critical oonditlon.
What It Will l>o.
The State says "five years of tencent
cotton, home production of farm
supplies and the supply of southern
markets with those produots which
may be produoed profitably in the
south, and the momentum of our
prosperity will be such that nothing
can impede its wonderful progress.
Is not the promise of such result
worth serious effort? The association
and co operation of southern farmers,
bankers and merohants is the promise."

Minister Qrisoom reports to the
state department that the American
military attaches who were
captured with the Russians at
Mukden are Col. Vallery Havard, of

Enthuvlaatlo Over the South.
Prof. W. Q. Johnson, managing editor
of The American Agriculturist,
ard Mr. Thomas A. Barrett, the
treasurer of the Orange Judd PublishIrg
company of New Yqrk city, were
In Columbia last week. Theso gentlemen
are making a tour of the fouth
studying agricultural cor dltions Wednesday
Mr. B J. Watson, commissioner
of agriculture, accompanied them
to Ridge Borings where they looked
over that section. Prof. Johnson is
particularly interested In the peach
industry, and has just completed a
book entitled "The Peach Crop."
The State says he (xpressed much
surprise at the extent of the peach industry
In Saluda county, and stated
that be did not think one-fifth part
of the available area Is devoted to or
chards. Having visited every peach
belt in the United States, Prof. Johuson
thinks farmers could more profitably
plant more peaches and less oot
ton in that section.
Thusday in company with Commis
sloner Watson, Mr. T. B. Tbackston
of the Southern railroad and Mr. E.
B. Clark, secretary of the Columbia
Chamber of Commerce, Prof. Joonson
and Mr. Barrett were given a look at
some of the industries about Columbia.

Mr. F. II Hyatt and the government

Stale, Prof. Johnson made the follow

ested Id the agricultural development
of t ie south We believe the south today
i IT rs the greatest Inducements to
men who are looking toward the farm
ill; advantages aro unsurpassed in
thissuperh climate for men who want
to locate on farms. There Is no place
in this c luntry where such a diversification
cf crops can be successfully
rotated as In the south.
"Mr. Barrett and myself have been
nviking annual trips through the
southern States for the past tlve years
Eich trip opens up new tielos for development
and we are surprised at the
many opportunities offered for capital
In commercial enterpeises as well as
in agriculture.
"We have never seen a more com
plete power plant than the one visit
ed In that city Thursday. With the
development of the great commercial
centres, the outlying agricultural district
must and will keep pace with
them. Tills means that men who are
looking for farms are turning their
eyes southward.
"1 do not believe there Is a worn
out farm In South Carolina. It is true
that there are a great many poor and
unimproved farms, but they are capable
of being made very productive and
profitable. These farms need intelligent
management and nothing else.
Wo have today seen two splendid ex
amplcs of what such careful super
vision can do In a short time. The
farm of Mr. F. II. Ilyatt and that of
Mr. It. O. Jones were types of abandoned
farms three years ago. Today
they aro models that are a credit to
any community.
"The largest crop of corn ever rals
ed on an acre of land was produced hi
South Carolina. Some years ago The
/\ meiiutui ngncuiiuraiist oir red a
prize of $500 for the largest amount
of com grown on one acre. Capt Z
J. Drake of Marlboro county, this
State, won the tlrat piize, producing
255 bushels of corn on one acre. The
second prise was won by the State of
Georgia, while Iowa and Nebraska
came In for third and forth places.
Since this contest the eyes of the north
and northeastern States have been
turned to the south.
"Last year Mr. Harrett and I visit
ed Capt. Drake at his home and saw
the acre on which this world record
corn crop was proiuced. Perhaps nothlug
in the history of agriculture ever
happ ned that turned the attention
of the country so closely to South Car
olina as this marvelous corn crop. 1
cite this as an instance of what can be
done on these soils when properly
handled.
"I am satidled the Southern States
will develop agriculturally more rapid
ly in the next 10 yeirs than any other
sect on. 1 have been advising m>
friends to look southward before pur
chasing new farms. Wo think tb
S >uth Carolina department of agrlcul
ture is wi rklng along the right lin s
to develop t e va-t agricultural area-.
It was your meihKlsof colonizat op
that tirst attracted our attention. Yot.
are to beco grarulate1 in having s
enthusiastic and earnest an advocate
in diversified farming ss we hav
fnund in Commissioner E J. Watson
If other Sra < s would mod 1 their im
migration laws after those of Soutl
Carolina the splended lands now un
(.ccupled would soon be the centres of
thousands of happy and prosperous
homes.
"We are greatly pleassd that Gov.
Iley ward has d splayed his personal
Interest in the djvelopmt nt of your
agricultural resources by the establishment
of a department that is doing
ho n uch good woj k. In our opinion
one of the features of Gov. iley ward's
administration that will stand out
prominently in the future will be his
personal Interest in the agricultural
development of this State. Wo are
indeed glad to know from the governor's
wn Hps that he has and Is giving
agriculture such close personal attention.
We prediot a great future for
South Carolina farmers."
