The Labor Problem.

Peninsula farmers are complaining of
the scarcity and unreliability of farm labor
in that region The laborers there are
chiefly colored men, nd-they are said to
be getting scarcer and more Indifferent every
year. while the best of them are culled out,
constantly, by colored labor agents who
get fee and percentage on labor for SO
doing. The labor problem, says the Gar
oline Democrat, is becoming more and
more difficult every year. The problem Is
one easily solved, whether the young white
men of the peninsula understand it or not
THEY MUST LAY HOLD WITH THEIR OWN
HANDS, unless they mean to plunge into
the depths of poverty, abandon the soil OF
their fathers and lead vagrant or dependent
lives. They must learn the lesson that
honest toll upon the farm is at once among
the most honorable and Independent OF
avocations They may thus solve the
labor problem without the slightest difficulty,
and with great benefit to themselves.

1t is said that there will be about forty
contests for seats in the next Congress,
That body should make some changes III
laws governing contests. Under the pres
ent acts and rules contestant, if he be
successful, is paid the expenses of the con-
test, and of late years these have generally
been about equal to the congressional sal
ary. This is all wrong, as it offers a pre-
MUM on contests. AS the salary is the
main object of many congressional asplr-
ants, it matters not to them whether the
money is received as a salary or as expenses
for contest. This is becoming very ap-
parent. and measures should be adopted to
keep unprincipled aspirants from raids on
the treasury. If contestant, even though
he be successful, shows probable cause for
his contest. he should be paid for neces-
sary expenses. IF it be apparent that there
was no cause for contest, other than the
sake of gain, he should be turned away
empty.

France is undergoing another of those
events, a crisis, without which that country
is unhappy The French have been I'M
settled since the death of Gambetta, the
cause of which is not apparent on this side
of the water, but it is nevertheless the
fact For week past Paris has been on
the verge of riot and bloodshed. Large
crowds have gathered several times, and
the police and military have had slight
conflicts with the excited populace.

At the charter elections in New York
last week the Republicans were again
routed, showing that the reform movement
last fall was real one and not a mere
momentary spasm. 1t looks as though
the people intend to make clean sweep
of the Republican party. The Democrats
carried Utica by an unprecedented major
ity. They also carried Rochester and FL
mira, two of the largest cities in the state
next to New York city.

The floods in the Mississippi are subsid-

sumed. Several breaks occurred within
the past ten days in the levecs along its
banks, flooding the the surrounding
country, drowning cattle, destroying con-
siderable property land drowning number
of persons. The damage and loss of prop
erty has been very insignificant as COM
pared with that caused by the floods in the
Ohio valley.

ToFARMERS AND TRUCKE,

In order to give an answer at once to
numerous enquiries made at our Office N
whether or not we intend to cOntinue
hacking business ut Westminster. We
leave to say we will, and further that VII
not guaranteeing any set prices, We will
our best to maintain those we endeayOrE
establish in our first season and in which
would have been successful had all psd
adhered to the plan we then announced.

the Judges; and those not grading prime ID
taken at a price under these, to be detems
by us, so as to do justice as nearly as pos
to the careful grower and all parties conc

culiar condition of the season, impossib.
be foreseen, which caused all the crops,
withstanding their being planted at difa
periods, to mature at the same time, thuSc
ING almost an impossible barrier to theirIs
properly gathered by the growers, web
determined not to give out half the quaa
of seed planted last year. This will enabt
to take care of a considerably greater qua
ty from parties who may not desire to d
especially for our Factory, but independa
of any, and take the market value Oft
produce when marketable. To this elias
desire to say we will make no unfair
elimination against them in favor Of ID
who may plant for our especial use, and B
no doubt Of our ability to handle their prod
in reasonable quantities and good condit
affording them as certain market at

The peach prospect is said to be promis-
inc, on the peninsular The buds are
backward, and that is usually a good sign.
When the trees bloom early, as they some
times do in February, the tender germs OF
the fruit are apt to be blighted by the
cold. But the buds are too backward for
that this season.

District Contests.

MEssRs. EDIToRs.-I am unaccustomed to
writing for the press, but | cannot refrain
from expressing my endorsement of your
suggestions several weeks since, in regard to
avoiding contests for district delegations, es-
pecially as you have invited the opinions of
the Democrats of the county upon them. |
have waited to let others express their views,
but so far only few communications have
appeared in the ADVOCATE. | am sure if all
who coincide with the suggestions of the
ADVOCATE should send you even very short
communications thereon, your paper would
be filled. | have conversed with none that
do not feel that district contests should be
avoided, and among them were several candi-
dates. The people seem to be united against
contests, and if they determine to avoid them
they can do so. They should not let candi-
dates, if any should endeavor 10 do so, get
up contests.

The people of Madagascar, having gotten

business relations. If they can succeed in
convincing the Americans, as well as the
English, that their commerce with Madagas-
car will be seriously interfered with or cut off
altogether by the French getting control OF
the African island, there is hope that obsta-
eles will be thrown in the way of the pro-
gramme of acquisition now so popular at
Paris. Such, at least, seems to be the view
with which Observation-Disclosures and Raman-
iraka, the Melagasy ambassadors, who arrived
in New York on Saturday last, pay their first
visit to this country. Considering, however,
the extreme cautiousness of our Secretary OF
State, it is unlikely that tie Melaeasy men will
obtain much aid here.
