White Immigration Into the south.
Ne,r OrIeans Tirnss-Denlocrat.

There was another large party of inn
migrants arriving here from Europe
Wednesday. There has been a decided
increase in the number landing at this
port during the past year, and when tbs
city shall have been made the headquar-
tiers of the Southern association, and the
arrangements perfected between the rail-
roads and steamship companies relative
to the handling of immigrants, this
movement viii reach even greater pro-
portions. Seeing how much immigration
into New York and Boston has done for
the development of the North and west,
we recognize the fact that Il similar
movement here Will be of equal adyant-
age to this section.
There is some prejudice against foreign
immigration in the North, not only
against undesirable persons, but against
immigrants of all kinds, and not few
would have the country bar its doors to
all newcomers on the ground that it is
already sufficiently populated, that there
is no room for more people here and that
those who come throw many already
here out of employment.
The South has no such prejudice. Nine
tenths of its lands are rs yet uncultivated,
velop them. Moreover, it is eagerly bid
ding for white immigration, seeing in it
an escape from its bugbear, the negro
question, and disappearance of negro
majorIties in every state and county. The
immigrants from Europe to America can
not do better to-day than settle in the
Southern states, where they will find a
welcome, cheap and fertile lands and
DIenty of work to do. With tides
of white settlers pouring IN from
both Europe and the North, the negro
will become each year less a factor in
Southern politics and less disturbing
element. Every Southern community
and every Southern white man should
take a live and active interest in pro-
moting immigration, and especially the
immigration of intelligent, well-to-dO'
farmers and mechanics from the North
and West. Southern legislatures should
subscribe literally to immigration pur-
poses and Southern cities and towns also.
The money viii be well spent.

DEEP WATER.

The demand for deep water on the
Texas coast is extending far beyond the
confines of the state, and without
such extension of the demand
deep water at government expense
would never be attained. But
this demand outside of Texas enforces
this condition, viz: deep water for Texas
at that point where it can be soonest and
most cheaply obtained and maintained.
Texas may be willing for the Federal
government to pay $40, 1000, 900 for deep
water, but, unfortunately, other states
must vote the appropriation = and
other states will be more ready
to give Texas deep water if Texas pro-
claims Willingness to have the harbor
where it can be soonest obtained for the
least money. The Galveston r-noth-
ing'' idea, or the "Aransas-Pass-or-
nothing" idea must not be permitted to
cheat this state of boon so
great. This is no time for Ffossilized
local prejudices' to interfere with Texas
development, and the demand should
be emphasized: deep water for
| Texas at that point where
it can be most speedily obtained for the
least money. In this sign alone can
Texas hope to conquer Federal aid.

The Bayards made their appearance in
the Eighth congress in 1905, the grand
father of the present secretary OF state
serving seven years, and resigned TO ae-
cept commission abroad TO negotiate
peace with Great Britain. His son en-
tered the senate in 1851, and served there
thirteen years He in turn was succeeded
by his son, the present secretary OF state,
who held his seat from 1869 TO 1885, when
he resigned to enter Mr.. Cleveland 5
cabinet. The Salfsburys came into the
senate in 1853, and viii disappear IN

The Observation-Disclosures of Rev. DR..
George W. Field OF Bangor, Ne, has
often been commented upon by the local
press When on the street, IN the cars (,
or even at dinner, his mind Is often so
fully concentrated upon the subject OF
his next sermon that he appears TO take
no notice OF surrounding circumstances
At one time. travelling between Bangor
and Boston, as the conductor of the tram
passing through the car making collec-
tions of tickets, came TO DR.. Field with
hand outstretched, the reverend gentle
man CHANGING up quickly from a reYerie /,
looked into his face moment, then eX-
tended with his usual cordially his hand
and said: ''Good afternoon, sir; but
think you have little advantage OF me

Mrs. James Brown Potter in Tights.


AT the first disclosure by her of FCleo-
patra - in the Decentralization from the
barge, she wore skirts so gauzy that her
legs, presumably in fiesh-colored hose,
were quite visible through the slight
drapery A fairer figure had hardly ever
been in q Shaksperean heroine, nor one
of freer view in any play outside of bur-
lesque and comic opera. The many en-
suing gorgeous costumes were more en-
yeloping, until the time came for the
suicide by means OF the poisonous worm
bite. Then there was climax of obedi-
ence to the text which, it will be remem-
bered, makes CLEOPATRA liken the
worm to the babe that suckles its nurse TO
death. Mrs. Potter uncovered herself III
an exploit of realism that was remaFka-
BILE even in these days of dramatic actu-
atty. Without discussing the question
of decency raised by the actress IN these
matters, it is certain that she has made a
winning bid for the eyes of the town, not
withstanding that attuned ears may still
refuse to hear her with delight.

4 pP0pOSED LLBEL LAW.

The bill introduced in the state legisla-
ture by Representative Wilson upon The
subject of civil actions for libel and pub
lished in THE GAZETTE of Saturday, con-
tains several elements of needed and just
legislation upon that subject. Briefly
svnopsized, its leading provisions are
that the question of probable cause Cor
maliee) shall be a question of law to be
decided by the trial judge; that the
defendant may prove the truth of the
charge complained of and when proved
this shall be a complete defense;
that the plaintiff in bringing his
suit puts in issue his character and
reputation as a good, honorable and
law-abiding citizen; that he must show
that the charge complained of is not
true, and that defendant had no reason
able or probable cause for believing it to
be true, to entitle himself to a recovery;
that if the defendant used proper dill
gence before making the publication !,
and upon learning of its falsity imme-
diately publishes retraction, this shall
constitute complete defense to a claim
for exemplary damages.
The theory Of these provisions is that

The January number of Electric Power
contains an article on the use Of electric

ers i'll the use of street cars which possess
considerable general interest. There Is
at present a spirited rivalry between the
electric motor and the cable, and those

The cable road is practically fully deyel-

Origin of a Political Maxim.
Birmingham Age.


The New York Sun has been investigat-
ing the authorship of the maxim 90 Pub
lie office is n public trust, " which is
commonly attributed to President Cleve-
land. 1t was also used by Dorman B
Eaton. eX-civil service commissioner; by
Judge Cooley of Michigan, and Justice
Field of the supreme court.
But it seems that the phrase is older
than any of these gentlemen and has
simply undergone an evolution of elimi-
nation and condensation until we find it
as used by President Cleveland. Assist
ant District Attorney Dos Posses of Balti-
more has traced it back to 1890, and
sends the Sun an extract from an opinion
rendered by Lord Chancellor LoughbOr-
ough, reported in H. Blackstone which
contains this language: ''Thls transac-
ton concerns a public office, deemed by
law to be a place of public trust.
The record of the maxim, therefore, so
far as the investigation has gone, is
shown in the following synopsis:
179O-Lord Loughborough-''Public office place
Of public trust"
1s64-Justice Field-''Public offices are trusts

LOVES LAMENTATIoN.


I sit here tonight in the cleaning,
With feelings / dare no. express,
And dead. cold void in my heart
NAV never more repress.
Into my life there has come love
Such a love as meier comes but once
Yet my lips are silent as death;
They can never give response.
When eyes far dearer than all on earth
Shed the light of their love on mine,
When look on face and form
That to me seems half divine,
When a tender voice speaks TO my heart
With 4 music that thrills my soul,
would give part of my life
To tell the half-not the whole
OF the passionate love bear,
Which is stronger than life or death;
or the name ever in my dreams,
That's waited with every breath;
Of the weary. never ceaSing pain

Because OF this passionate love
I'm doomed in silence 20 bear.
