Yes, the prognosticators were right this
tiue; the frost did come in May. On Sat-
urday morning the ground was white,
cotton being the greatest sufferer. In some
places it is so killed that it will have to be
replanted. Have never heard of so much
complaint about bad stands of cotton. a
great many of our farmers are plowing up
and planting over, while others are going
to wait on its coming up. Some have
worked over, and still it does not come.
If there is any truth in the old adage, "a
bad beginning makes good ending" we
are all right.
Wheat and oats are beginning to make a
little better show, and the outlook now is
very good for good harvest.

The Negro in the North and South.

A colored clergyman, Rev. Hutchens g.
Bishop, rector of St. Philips Protestant
Episcopal Church, New York city, who
has been interviewed by Times reporter,
complains of the race prejudices ia
Northern cities, which practically ex-
clude colored people from mechanical
occupation and decent modes of life. Mr..
Bishops personal experience and obser-
vation 60 very far to prove that the lot of
the colored people in the South ia much
better in many ways than in the North,
where the attitude of the whites is one of
extreme prejudice and hostility. He
shows that they are denied access to me.

wages in servile positions than white
people receive for equivalent service.
"The FORMS" he says, Chat prejudice
takes in the North are often more lumil.
ating than the political antagonism the
colored people encounter from their for
mer masters in the South. These colored
men work side by side with their white
colleagues in all the mechanical trades,
and no effort is made to prevent them
from learning any branch Of industrial
employment they may choose. The ma.
terial and moral and Intellectual aspira>
tions of the colored man are not interfered
with in the South, but on the contrary
are encouraged in many ways by the
white people, who learned before the war
to look to him for all the mechanical
work that was wanted. When the color.
ed artisan comes North and tries to find
work at his trade, and is met by a refusal
of white men to work alongside of him,
he encounters kind of antipatby and
prejudice that are unknown in the
South" Negroes going North will find
that the Northern color line is drawn
very sharply by people who don't want
them as neighbors, fellow-workmen or as-
sociates, yet who would put them in po.
litical control of the South.

WILL 60 South.

NEwBURYpoRT, April 29.-The direc-
tors of the Whitfield cotton mills have
decided to remove the machinery and
equipment Of their mill here to Spartan.
burg, S. G., where the company has q
large mill under construction. The agent
of the company, Mr.. Stephen Green,
states to Herald representative that this
step has been taken because ola desire to
avail themselves of the immense adVan :
tage the South possesses for manufactures,
among which he claims are cheaper raw
material, cheaper fuel, lower cost of liv.
ing and consequently cheaper labor, and
last, but not least, more favorable legisla.
ton, or rather absence cf legislation, in
regard to labor in South Carolina. Mr..
Green is of the opinion that the Legisla.
ture of Massachusetts by continued 80.
called labor legislation is gradually
crowding manufacturers to the wall, and
will ultimately drive all manufacturers
South. The Whitfield mills have been
under its present management about two
years, the present number of employees
is 1926, weekly pay roll $4,000. 1t is not
believed that the mills a. the South will
be ready for occupancy before early fall,
which gives the operatives chance to
turn around. The buildings cover
three fourths of an acre of ground, 175,-
900 feet of aoorage surfnce, with steam
and fire apparatus in excellent condition.
1t will not remain unoccupied, as it was
ascertained yesterday that one of the
enterprises would undoubtedly occupy
The premises. The firm Of Lockwood,
Green & Co., mill engineers, connected
with the above corporation, will remain
in this city, for the present at least, ard,
perhaps, permanently.-.Boston Herald.

CRIMES AND CASUALTIES.

RALEIGH, N. c., May Warsaw, in
the eastern part of this State, was struck
by terrific cyclone this morning at 4
o'clock. Hail fell with such rapidity
and violence as to lie eight inches deep
in thirty seconds. Many small houses
were blown away almost bodily. Large
houses were torn up so they are not habi-
table. The Seminary building was split
open and nearly destroyed. The Presby.
terian church was totally demolished, not
a stick of timber being left that may be
used in rebuilding, Fences were torn
up and scattered lire leaves. No loss of
life is reported. Strawberries are the
principal article of early production
here, and hundreds of acres were ruined.
Exclusive of the loss of these crops, the
damage will exceed $4,000.
RALEIGH, N. O., May 4.-At11 o'clock
to night United States Deputy Collector
Vanderford arrived here and brought
news that moonshiners had shot and
perhaps mortally wounded Briscoe b.
Bouldin, who is also deputy collector,
and who is a native of Charlotte County,
Virginia, and son Of Judge Bouldin.
Bouldin, Vanderford and Deputy Marshal
A. H. Temple were after moonshiners,
having located twenty-five stills. While
Temple and Vanderford were cutting
up one still, Bouldin was at the other,
mile away, watching for the moonshiner,
and when the latter came up arrested
him and began to destroy the still. Sud
denly the moonshiner stepped aside, took
his gun, which was concealed behind q
log aud shot Bouldin. The latter return.
ed the fire even after he had been shot in
the chest and stomach, and knocked the
moonshiner down. Vanderford and
Temple found Bouldin terribly wounded.
He was taken to the house of a physician
and then Vanderford came here for fur.
ther aid. He says the house was full of
moonshiners. The place where the
shooting occurred is in Johnston County,
seventeen miles south of this city and in
very bad aeighborhood.

Cotton Covering for Cotton.

The Conference Of Southern cotton
manufacturers and representatives of the
Farmers Alliance in South Carolina and
Georgia, which was held in Augusta on
Wednesday, fully justified the expecta:
tions that were entertained with regard
to it's probable usefulness.
The joint committee which was ap.
pointed to confer upon the question re-
ported that it is practicable to substitute
cotton bagging for jute bagging, that cot
ton bagging can be manufactured, yard
for yard, at the same or less cost than
the jute bsgging, if it shall be generally
adopted as a covering for cotton bales,
and recommended the Association Of
Manufacturers to adopt resolutions look.
ing to an equitable readjustment of the
allowance for "tare," which would become
necessary when the lighter covering is
used.
This recommendation was promptly
acted on. The companies represented in
the Association agree to pay 10 cents q
hundred pounds for whatever cotton they
buy, provided the substitute baggiug
does not weigh more than three.quarters
of pound to the yard, and this allow.
aDce appears to have been satisfactory to
the representatives ofthe Alliance, who
constituted two. thirds of the committee.
The immediate result of the Conference
was that two of the mills represented in
the Association closed a contract the
same night with the representatives Of
the Alliance in South Carolina and Geor.
gia to supply the farmers of those States
with four million yards ofootton bagging
in time to be used in covering the next
crop. This is advantageous to the mills,
of course, and will make the farmers of
the two States practically independent of
the Jute Trust for year, which is the
object nearest in view.
The cotton farmers will now have the
Southern cotton factories 20 help them in
their fight against the Jute Trust, and
the issue can no.longer be- regarded as
doubtful. The Alabama Alliance, and
the Mississippi Alliance, We believe, have
already pledged their members to the
use of the cotton bagging exclusive. The
Cotton Convention at Birmingham on
the 18th instant will probably lead to the
general adoption of the cotton covering
this year; and if 80, the Jute Trust will
be buried forthwith, without ceremony
and without regret, in the shroud of it's
own weaYing.-Neacs and Courier.

ploughing to housework, so last fall she

- The American Baptist Year Book
for 1889 presents an array of statistics.
The whole number of members of Baptist
Churches in the United States is given at
100000. Of these about 100000 are
found in the Northern States. Of the
Baptists in the Southern States about
l 100000 are colored and about 100000
white. These 100000 memberd are
divided among $4,000 churches, so that
there are, on the average, less than 100
members to church.

A Good Suggestion.

Mr.. EDITOR: May ask if the next best
thing the City Council could do would be
TO put sprinkler on the streets
The advancement now being made IN
every other department, and the accumu-
lation of dust on the streets caused by
hauling debris and clay on the streets, de-
mands and justifes some protection to the
merchants and others from the clouds OF
dust that enter their places of business and
dwellings. We doubt il there is another
city with Anderson's pr oportions but that
has this great preventive of dust.
We respectfully call attention OF our
worthy Mayor and Aldermen to what we
consider something very much needed.
