Editorial NOtings.

WE want little more national pat
rotism in this country, North as well
as South. We need to quit nagging
other sections, and to pull all together
for the national good. Why do we say
this, and what business of the agri-
cultural editor is it, anyhow? Well, we
have lived East and West, North and
South, in the United States, and long
enough all around to know that we
Americans are "pretty much of much
ness" take us all together. Conse-
quently we are disguised when we read,
as we lately have in an agricultural ex-
change, such statements as the follow
ing from a travelling correspondent:
I" You may travel by rail through hun.
dreds of miles of the most favored Sec
tions of North and South Carolina and
Georgia, without seeing single house
except in the towns and villages-such
as the poorest Maine farmer would be
willing to stay over night in; or single
barn or other building for the storage
of hay or fodder; or any sort of shelter
for stock other than tumble.down open
sheds. The live stock on one of these
farms (?) usually consists of a NANCY
mule or so, and diminutive COW, the
latter often being made to do double
duty by furnishing the small quantity
of milk used by the family, and also to
transport the crop from the cotton field
to the nearest market. And what
sorry looking little creatures these
half-fed COWS arel About as tall as a
two-year-old heifer of the North. They
are as gaunt, bony and ambitionless as
their owners, and after they have pro-
duced their daily two or three quarts of
milk, yielding a small modicum of pal
lid, flavorless butter, contentedly chew
their cuds with a clear conscience"
The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1891-05-06

AN intelligent reader need but look
over single issue of the Southern Cul-
tiudtor, for instance-a typical agri-
cultural monthly, not inferior to any in
the Northern States, to see that such a
statement is grossly untrue. Nay, he
need only to think for one moment of
the immense output of agricultural
products from the South in cotton, rice,
sugar, tobacco, fruit, garden products,
and other great agricultural staples, to
see that it is absolute nonsense. Why,
the very waste of the cotton-felds, the
cotton seed, is an immense thing, COM
mercially, supplying oil and cattle-feed
to the entire country, while the cotton
stalks are being shown capable of sup
plying the fiber to make bagging for
the entire crop.
The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1891-05-06

CAN all these things be produced
in country to the agriculture of which
such description is in any way justly
applicable? Common sense alone,
without direct knowledge, is enough to
refute it. What is there said is true
only of the poorest negroes and whites,
occupying the very poorest parts of the
South. Those of us who are proud of
our English descent, through the sturdy
stock that settled New England in the
sixteenth century, and later, ought to
know, and do know, that with very
slight exceptions the people of the
South are one with us in every charac-
teristic of English liberty-loving man
hood. True, they were cursed by AT
rican slavery, introduced among them
by their Yankee sea-faring brothers;
and bitterly have both sections paid for
their shares in that great national crime.
We can say for them only that they
were benighted by the lust for wealth
which has marked our energetic race
always, and which blinded even such
true patriots as General Joseph Warren,
who fell at Bunker Hill, and who, as is
testified by family documents in our
own possession, was engaged with our
own great-grandfather in that nefarous
traffic. We thank God that they lost
money in it-finding dull and reluct-
ant market for their human live stock
in Virginia and North Carolina in the
years between 1860 and 1776-when
they both went into better business in
the continental service, in which our
ancestor served to the end under GEN
eral Jonathan Trumbull of Connecti-
cut. His portrait, by Copley, hangs
over the desk where we write, and he
certainly was too good looking man
for slave trader.

THE BOARD OF TRADE.

The adjourned meeting of the board of
trade comes at the lower room of the
town hall this friday evening. 1t will
begin at Z o'clock. 1t is very desirable
that there should be a full attendance OF
all citizens, whether members of the
board or not, who desire the establish
ment of manufactures in the village oil
its vicinity. If every one takes hold
something may be accomplished; if they
wont, then it is hardly worth while for a
few to try and set things going. One
purpose of tonight's meeting is to see
how hearty an interest the citizens as q
whole take in the matter.

Belmont chronicle. [volume] (St. Clairsville, Ohio) 1855-1973, 1891-12-31

The usual Christmas festivities were
indulged in by the Methodist Sunday
School on Thursday evening of last
week, with pleasing variations on the old
plan. The little folks entertained them
selves and their elders by declamations
and songs. A gorgeous Christmas tree
stood in the choir loft, and heaped about
it were the baskets of candy, nuts and
fruit, to be distributed when Santa Claus
should appear. That individual arrived
by way of an open window. He was
dressed la Esquimaux, and tangled his
bells and shook imaginary snow from his
furs. Each member of the school re-
ceived sack of sweetmeats, 277 being
handed out by old Kris and his helpers.

Mr. Charles IL. Willis and Miss Flora
NJ. Nichols were married at Walnut Lane
Home, the residence of the brides faith.
er, at IL O'Clock Wednesday morning
The couple were married by the Quaker
ceremony, in the presence of a large
number of guests. An elegant dinner
was served by NJ. E. Wilson, the caterer
of this place. The welded pair started
for trip through the East Wednesday
evening.
Mr. Willis home is in Eastern Mary
land. Miss Nichols is a daughter of Ma
than B. Nichols, of Morristown. She is
talented young lady, and her hosts of
friends unite with THE CHRONICLE in
wishing both her and her husband long
and happy married life.

Choked and Hit Her.

Frank Boston is again in trouble.
Last Friday he assaulted a colored neigh
Dor named Hull. The Hull family own
one of the Gus Esch houses, and Boston
lives in the other. A well supplies both
families. 1t is on the line. Boston, who
was drunk, took notion that the Hull
family should stop getting water there.
When Mrs. Hull went to the well on
Friday, Boston warned her, and when
she insisted that the stipulations of the
deed allowed her the free use of the
water, then Boston took hold of her and
choked her. and hit her singing blow
in the face.
