NOTES AND COMMENTS. and that it supplies one more badly needed link in the chain of Southern history. The style of the writer is clumsy at times, and the illustra tions are poor, but these defects de tract little or nothing from the in trinsic merit of the book which ought to be read in every Southern home. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Another line paper read before the Industrial Convention at, Huntsville, Ala., was that of Mr. W. A. Damon, of NashviUe, Tenn., on “Flour mill ing in the South.” The writer shows that the South makes only about 8,000,000, bushels of wheat, and con sumes *18,000,000. The deficit is supplied from other states at a cost of 10,000 000, or the equivalent of 1,000,000 bales of cotton. All this, too, when the average yield of wheat per acre in the South is greater than in the great wheat growing states of Illinois and Dakota. Ho states that President Johnson, of Winthrop Normal College, writes the (,«overnor that the college has been compelled to turn off ^><1 applicants for lack of dormitory room. And yet we hap pen to know that scholarships are still being offered and girls already matriculated in other institutions are being persuaded to violate their con tracts with those institutions and go to Winthrop. How is this? ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ That was a graceful and truly fraternal act on the part of the Pres byterian church of this town in of fering to the Baptist church the use of its elegant house of worship for the Baptist State Convention, and it was done in a graceful and truly fraternal spirit. Such thought ful and courteous kindness do more fine roller llouring mills can be erected at a cost ranging from ijW.OOO to and that it will take l,0u0 such mills running 2.“i0 days in the year to make the Hour needed for home Consumption. We hope this paper as published in the State and the News and Courier will he gener ally read. The great need of the South now—a need, too, which can be easily supplied—is plenty of home raised wheat and mills to grind it. The old burr mill is gone, and it car ried wheat raising with it. The roller mill is coming, and wheat raising must be revived. Let no farmer rest until ho has wheat enough to make plenty of Hour for home use and some to send abroad. This done, mills will come, and come quickly. towards emphasizing the Christian religion and allaying sectarian preju dices than all the homilies that have been preached during the lust decade. The war is on in South Africa, and whatever imperialists both in Ameri ca and Europe may think and say of I the reckless folly of the Boors in ' precipitating war rather than pur-i chasing peace by sacrifice and hu miliation, a large portion of mankind will yet admire the national spirit which will fight against all odds be fore it will submit to spoliation and debasement. Of course the Boers cannot withstand the whole power of England, but they can fight, and die like men, and in so doing make con quest a costly experiment to Eng land and give a salutary warning to other imperialistic nations. Mr. D. A. (i. Ouzts’s batteries are still playing. The X-bookkeeper of the dispensary is proving to be a mere accurate marksman than book keeper. He lires rapidly and every shot hits. After pounding Chair man Miles with solid shot, lie opens now with grape and canister on one entire wing of the dispensary army and men are hit and wounded at every fire. We are assured that there is a good deal of ammunition still in his caissons and that the bat teries will bo kept in operation until that be exhausted. Truly the great moral institution is having a hard time with the sons of Belial. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ The Dewey boom seems to have greatly subsided. Just after it hud passed the climax, it was called off by a bout race which was announced to take place in New York harbor. But, one tiling and another have conspired to delay the race, and it has not occurred yet. In the mean time the expectant nation lias be come sick at heart from hope de ferred, and is turning away in dis gust from the boat race and looking in other directions for an opportunity to make a fool of itself. There is nothing immediately ahead better than the meeting of the prize lighters, Sharkey and Jeffries. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ The paper prepared by our fellow- townsman, President J. E. Iticrck, and read before the Industrial Convention at Huntsville, Ala., on the unreasonable and unjust discrimina tion made in freight rates against the carpet mill products, is an aide pre sentation of the facts and must sooner or later open the eyes of the public to this glaring and outrageous injustice. Big corporations are nat urally greedy and unscrupulous, but the American people generally love justice and fair play and will not consent to have these persistently violated. We hope President Bierck will continue to agitate this subject. 11 is cause is so manifestly just, that sooner or later he must obtain n hearing. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ “Ha.MIToN and his Cavai.ky in l.shl” is the title of a new book just issued from the great Southern pub lishing house of B. F. Johnson A Co., ot Richmond, Yu., and written by Edward L. Wells, of Charleston. It contains PJH pages, is printed on thick white paper In large clear type, and is neatly bound in cloth and gold. Wo have not had time to read the hook carefully, hut from a hasty glance through it, we are impressed with the fact that it is a correct and thrilling narrative of the operations of the Confederate cavalry during the most eventful year of the Civil War, l.lincKtoix' (.'ollejj*'. p.afTnoy ( oiTcspunilriil l>;i|itist <'nurit'i*.] It will gratify the legions of friends of Limestone College throughout our State to learn that this noble old col lege is making one advance after an other. Every week secs some impor tant improvement made. The now session has begun under tho most promising circumstances. The stand ard of tho college was very much raised for this year and is now equal to that of any other college, whether for men or for women, in the United States. And the best of it is that this is not simply a high standard on paper but is being put into operation in the instruction that is given in the class rooms of tho college. Lime stone does for her students precisely what she promises to do. The ses sion opened well and new students are coming in continually so that the attendance is highly satisfactory. The college will publish every month a booklet containing an origi nal lecture or paper read in tho class room that month. It is required that these productions be of a high order of literary merit. The series of monthly monographsjwill bo entitled. “Lime stone College Studios.” During this week the first number of the college newspaper will be issued. This jour nal will appear once every month also. It will be edited by the stu dents themselves, under the super vision of the talented professor of English, Captain H. P. Clriffith, so widely and so favorably known in South Caralina. The paper will have four pages of about the size of tho Baptist Courier. Tho students of Limestone this year are enthusiastic in their praises of the institution. Two fine teachers have just been added to the faculty of the college. Miss Mary Katherine Chapin, an A. B. and A. M of the Co lumbian University, has been elected assistant professor of German and mathematics. Miss Chapin was re cognized in the Columbian University as being one of the most finished scholars and one of the profoundest thinkers in the whole student body. She distinguished herself in every class of which she was a member. She was teaching in a New York in stitution when Limestone issued the cull to her to oome down to Carolina and help in the great work. Miss Chapin is no stranger to our people, having lived for a number of years in Columbia. The Winnie Davis Hall of History is a project which excites the enthu siasm of every Southerner to whom it is mentioned. Southerner did we say? Yes, and Northerner too, for our friends at the North honor the sentiments which causes n grout peo ple to gather up reverently tho story of the exploits ami virtue and noble lives of “Famous men and the fathers who begat us.” President Lodge is receiving every day letters expressive of enthusiastic approval of this plan to establish the great School of History under The be loved name of Winnie Davis. And the letters come from all points of the compass, showing that tho idea is very generally approved. Miss Nina V. Benedict, a graduate pupil of the celebrated William L. W hitney of Boston, has been secured us tho teacher of voice culture for the School of Music at Limestone College. Miss Benedict is an attract ive and cultivated singer. Personal musical friends of our Director of Music who have heard her sing as sure Professor Brown that he has so- mired an especially gifted teacher. Those who desire to pursue the study of voice culture should consult with the Director of Music at once so that they may promptly begin their study.

They are among the most thrifty people in tho county, and, ns the expression goes, “Jive at home and hoard at the same place.” T. L. Brown and F. L.

Mr. Pugh is an old friend of the Ledger and called to see us while here. C. Jones, of Byarsville, was in tho city yesterday and reported having killed a fox squirrel on his place last Friday. These animals are getting quite scarce in this section, while at one time they were very plentiful. S. G. Pridmore, better known as “Tillman,” of Grassy Pond, was in the city Friday on business. Mr. Pridmore is a farmer-citizen of which any community might justly be pround and The Ledger has a gratifi cation in numbering him among its patrons. W. 1). Gaston, a progressive over- the-river farmer, was in the city last week. Mr. Gaston lives within sight of Gaffney but in order to get here is compelled to travel twelve miles, when a bridge would lessen the distance considerable. J. H. George, a young planter of Wilkinsville, spent Saturday in the city. He added his name to The Ledger’s growing list while here. W. R. Lipscomb spent several days last week at Columbus, N. C. Mr. Lipscomb has some property up tlu ro and is interested in the material development of the place. A. R.

The latter is a bright little fellow who bids fair to become a useful citizen. R. P. Scruggs, of Ezells, spent Saturday in the city shaking hands -with his many friends. Undo Bob always receives a warm welcome in Gaffney, and he deserves to, for he is a, right jolly old fellow and carries in his heart a warm spot for everybody. J. D.

Mayors, a colored minister, brought to this office last Thursday an ear of corn grown from corn sent i him from the West Indies. Along with the corn was the following ac count of the experiments he had made with it: On a small piece of land, in a place overrun at times by the water from a drain, I planted a piece of corn sent to mo from tho island of Tobago, Br. W. I., sometime during the month of April last, and two days before tho full moon. The corn was on a small cob anti was yellow in color. It was hindered much by the drought, but it grew, nevertheless, and became so tall that each passer-by wondered at tho height and greenness of the stalks. After seeing that some American corn, whkh was planted long afterwards, had shown ears and ripened I began to think that my effort with foreign corn was a failure, and sent orders to have the corn cut down and sold. Meanwhile the na tive corn became dry. The foreign corn was yet green. The height of the corn was twelve and one-quarter feet. No signs of ears appeared til September; then tho ears were some time sixteen inches long and three upon a stalk. Subsequently tho whole lot began to ear. There are now three, four, five and six ears upon a stalk. The grains are round and generally yellow, while the native grains are narrow crosswise. I computed f>o0 grains on one small oar. The corn is sweeter than the native corn; tho general length, however, is not greater. While a reasonable nearness was allowed to the stalks, they were not very near—not as near as bottom corn usually is. The corn was never ploughed, and it was hoed only twice. It is yet giecn, and I fear that the frost will ho on it before it has attained full growth. < >ne hill planted on a dry place near the house attained to per- fecsion long before the others did any graining. Under favorable weather conditions a good crop of this corn could be raised. I 'Mission loiiiy. In view of the departure of Rev. W. E. Crocker and wife for China on November the fith the Baptist have arranged to hold a Foreign Mission rally in this city on October 28th and 2Hth.

I.).—W hat we said, sometime a ago, in regard to a cotton mill child labor law may, or may not, have had something to do with tho inducing of The Ledger to make his cotton mill investigation. However that may be, we are glad that he made it, and has pi act'd the result of his observation before the Ledger readers. We notice that various newspapers are indorsing the action of our Cir cuit Judges in refusing to sign the pay certificates of immaterial wit nesses. Now, as for our part, wo have failed, up to date, to see where there is any justice in forcing a man to lose perhaps a week of his time from ids business, in attending court, and tile judge to refuse to allow him any pay for his time. If the law leaves it to the discretion of tho judge whether the witness gits any pay or not, it certainly should he amended so as to leave it to tho disorolion of tho witness whether he aitends court or not. While a judge in refusing Hie pay witnesses whom ho considers to bo immaterial witnesses, may saw some taxes to the county, it is certainly very unjust to place a hue upon a man because he don’t happen to kn ow enough about a case to secure the conviction of tho defendant. And that is just what the judge does when lie refuses to pay those witrn -.ses whom lie considers not to he “mate rial.” Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Wimpcy art re joicing at Hie birth of a daughter ■ t their house. The cotton of this section is about all gathered, but a great many of our farmers are holding their cotton for a better price. The fact is. we sup pose, if cotton was worth 2d cents per pound, about the usual number of farmers would hold tin ir cot ton for a better price.
