DURING the working season of the pre-
sent summer the editors of the Charleston
Is. c. News and Courier issued circular
of questions to well-informed citizens in the
thirty-one counties of that state. One Of
the questions is, us negro labor more or
less efficient than in previous years?"
10 this answers were published from
eighteen counties, representing all parts of
the state the coast, mid-country and noun
tains. Eight Of these represented the eff
cheney to be the same as in previous years.
Five represented it as less and FIVE as
greater. All the three parts of the state
were represented in each of these three
classes Of reply so that we are debarred
from inierring that negro labor is improv-
ing in efficiency in one part of the state
and declining in another. A fair inference,
If these witnesses are competent, is that
this class OF labor has not taken any de-
eided departure in either direction for some
years at least
Another question, however, cognate to
this, received more consistent answers
The question is: $50 far as you know, do
negroes when working for themselves,
make more or less than when working as
hired laborers ?n To this there were an
swers also from eighteen counties. Of
these, one says they make more when
working for themselves; while Seventeen
say that they make less. The general re-
suit is that the preponderance of this tes-
timony shows that the negro finds it better
economy, for the present, to hire out then
to rent or buy lands
On this point, however, It would be in
teresting to have the testimony Of the me-
gro himself. 1t is perfectly natural that
the white, who wants labor, aud is depend
ent upon the blacks for it, shonld think,
and think quite honestly, that the
system which gives him what he wants
should be also the best for the other
person concerned. But the best
Judge on that subject, We must believe, is
the negro, for he and he alone can tell
which is the system most profitable for
himself, counting profit only in dollars and
cents. 1t is quite probable that many, il
not most, Of them would rather work for

ACCORDING to the recent census. the
working forces Of the United States num-
Der 1866, 1913 in a population aggregating
3S,55s,371 persons; which would indicate
that about one in every three of the popu-
lation is actively engaged in some industrial
or life-supporting pursuit. There is amani-
fest discrepancy, however, in the dispropor-
ton between the. sexes, as to the relative
numbers at work for the census says
that the male workers number 10, 639, 436,
while only 1886, 4s7 females arc returned
as employed. 1t IS not easy to believe
that, in view of the increased and increas-
ing employment of women and girls in
industrial occupations, the proper
ton of American workers is six
males TO one female. A little obser-
yation will lead most people to assume
that more fair figuraton would show
that female workers abound to a much
greater extent Than this. Perhaps the
discrepancy comes from the omission of
domestic service as q means of livelihood;
in which case. that numerous, but vitality
necessary, class of female workers, native
| and other, would soon swarm in as the
noticed. 1t is obvious enough, certainly,
that working for wages in the household
is just as much an industrial occupation
as any other mode of working for wages,
and, so far as the census-takers have
| Ignored this fact, their tables are rendered
incomplete.
When we come to analyze the returns and
apportion to each occupation its respective
| array of forces, it is found that nearly half
of all the men and women pretending to
work at all are farmers, or otherwise en-
ployed upon the soil. Agriculture has
marked nearly 100000 for its own. OF
manufacturers, mechanics and miners there
are 8, 707 AL. The professions, including
all the occupations assuming this distinctive
| title, have afollowing Of 1854, 703 persons
And the three Ts-traffic, trade and trans
portation feed an army numbering 49,
22S. There is something suggestive in the
order of precedence as to numerical
strength, given by the census returns Ia
the various branches of occupation. One
can get a good idea ofthe relative POPULAR.
| ty and presumable profitableness of the
several industries by glance at the labori
ously compiled columns of this not over
sensational public document. Thus, it is
seen that there are more men busted as
carpenters than in any other single me-
chanical pursuit; end, in the other me.
chanical trades, tailors come next in
number to carpenters, followed along
down by miners and blacksmiths. Fifth
in the list numerically, come mlliners
closely pursued by masons, painters
and machnists just for all the world
as naturally rs in everyday life outside Of
census books. Possibly, however, there
is slight favor of incongruity in finding
tae dear little milliners thus sandwichel III
between blacksmiths and masons; bui
| this is their rather than our funeral, and We
see no way for them to help themselves
except by thinning out their ranks to what
ever figure will bring them in between
such other classes Of workers as they
may most affect.
