NEGROES ARE l'NFIT 1 I We have observed will? some Inter est a bill In the l?gislature to prevent whites and blaeks from working to gether In cotton mills. Just why such a bill ie necessary we do not know?and quite likely it.4? not. We doubt If any more negroes work with white people in mills than in the fields or in stores or anywhere else. In fact we do not believe the mill op erttlves would stand for that kind of thing, and we do not believe the mill owners would try to foist It. All of which reminds us. The ne gro is unfit for working in a cotton mill. Every one has heard the old story of the negro who was told that some man was going to educate mon keys to pick cotton. "Tain't no use", he said. "As soon as ever them mon keys learn to pick cotton some Yan kee will come along and sot 'em free.' ' The owners of the old Haluda cot ton mill experimentell' with negro la bor before the wir, and even before the Yankees came along and "sot 'em free," it was learned that the negro is unfit for that kind of work. The mill was built, for white labor, but an epidemic of malaria or something drove the operatives away and the owners thought that slave labor might do. Mr. Jas. G. ?lbbe?, son of the great southern writer, Dr. R. W. Gibbes. operated a triill at one time and he told the editor of this paper that the owners of the mill saw that slave labor was absolutely unfit. We believe that an experiment wan made, and with equal lack of succese, witli the free negro labor in Charles ton. And we are quite positive that there was a pronounced failure in Columbia when the Congaree mill wus built by Gen. Alexander, Judge Iln^kell and others. Negroes are un fit for mill labor. Their fingers are not nllnnt enough'for the delicate work, and their, , wits not quick enough. God himself made it so, and no laws, pro and con, will ever change the situation: CHTRCB NOTICES The Daily Intelligencer last Mon day officially requested of the minist erial union that if any of the pastors preferred tn have their church an nouncements published in the Satur day paper they would let us have the written copy Friday.-1 Two of the pastors sent tn their'-copy, and the an nouncements of the First Presby terian and the First BaptlBt churches were published in Saturday's paper. The others are published today. " 1 Victor Huerta now no doubt feels that one Villa put over a good joke on this country. -.?

Dew, were most successful. .There were during the meetings about one hundred pro fessions of faith. A/^tundred, by bap tism and by letter, have united with Dr. Vines' church and it is thought that many more will be received. Dr Vines is quoted aj.egjtfig: "In my opinion Dr. Dew is thevsquat pf any evangelist I have ever known. ihn ability to quote from the Illnle and lo cate the passsge is phenomenal and his unique method in delivery, which i consista largely in scriptural referen [cer. and p?riment and effective lllua itratlons both pathetic and humorous, united with his power of appeal and: his patient and persistent efforts to win the individual, combine to make blm so sar as 1 know the most de sirable evangelist in our denomina tion."

HONEA PATH AGAIN WON DEGREE FLAG Next District Convention Will | Be Held With Seventh Dis trict at Chick Springs In point of attendance the mpst buc cessftil diHtrlct convention of Red Men ever held in the tenth district took place yesterday when the braves and warriors gathered as the guests of the Pelzer lodge, according to An derson men who returned last night from Pelzer where they had been In attendance at the convention. Possibly the most Interesting fea ture of the convention yesterday was j the degree team contest for the ban ner. This is an annual event, the fing going to the best drilled degree team, in the district, and this year, at laHt, the prize was captured by C'om anchee team of Honea J": .n, their or ganization showing that It had reach ed an even higher ?tstc oj profiency than was attained last year. I Capt. Ellison A. Smythe delivered a splendid address of welcome which delighted his large audience Capt. Smythe is a member of one of the Pelzer tribes. This address or wel come was responded to by Hon. John M. Daniel of Greenville in a most happy manner. A number of Interesting matters pertuinlng to the order and more partleuln.iy to the tenth district were discussed and disposed of. following which the Daughters of Pocahontas, a branch of the order of Red Men, served a splendid supper to the largo crowd. This was one of the most en joyable features of the entire day. At tills supper short addresses were made by J. W. H in son, past eacbem of Okla homa, John 'M> Daniel of Greenville and J. P. Carlisle of Greenville. Another matter of general inter est was the election of chiefs for the next great sun, which resulted as follows: District Deputy Grand Sac hem. W. E Gilbert or Honea Path; District Deputy Grand Senior Saga more. M. B. Smith of Greenville; Dls-| trist Deputy Grand Junior Sagamore, J. S. Osteen or Piedmont; District | C. of R., W. M. Allen of Greenville. It was decided that the next con vention would take place at Chick | Springs in the month of September, lul l, at which time district number I seven will. be holding its convention at the same place. This will be the biggest event of the year in the order and the selection of Chick Springs la [ regarded as a most happy one.
