POOR MANS BELT.

Few Biographies mention the dis
trict i'll the South known as the
Poor Mans Belt" It is o tract OF
country generally very sandy and
producing little timber save the long
leafed pine. 1t begins not far south
of Richmond, Va, aud extends along
the Atlantic and Gulf consts into
Texas. Its length is not far from
l,SO0 miles, while it is from so to I5O
miles in width. The soil is poor, but
tho forests produce not only lupnber
i'll abundance, but also largo quanti-
ties OF pitch, tar and turpenline. 1t
got bad name during slavery days
because no cotton was raised in if,
but since the South is beginning to
look elsewhere than to the cotton
field for it's wealth the poor Mans
Belt' promises to become one of the
richest parts OF the Southern States.

But beyond this there is no need
for any Legislation unless the ueces-

some action, aud this cannot be de-
terinined until the adjournment in
March. The motion to repenl the
federal election law will lead to de.
bate, and as the act will not apply to

wait.
The mnin thing is to provide suffi,

into effect, with ample notice to all
concerned, in the spring or early
summer of next year. This can be
done with an extra session for organ

this O'Linger assented while Martii,
objected A dispute arose when Mar
tin started toward Greear with hos
tile intentions. O'Linger seized him
to prevent bodily harm to Greear.
At this instant the latter fired a shot
from Winchester rifle which took
the thumb from O'Linger's left hand,
nearly took off the front fpger, pass

the intense cold the room was almost
without fire and Martin had received
no medical attention, it being claim

THE OPPORTUNITY OF THE
SOUTH.

THE OPPORTUNITY OF THE
SOUTH.
While the election of MIR. Cleve.
land and the success of the Demo
cratic party promise the happiest re-
suits for every section and portion of
the country, the section which has
the most occasion to rejoice and be
thankful is undoubtedly the South.
Even if the Democratic party should
fail, which we are far from appre-
bending, to carry out the measures
necessary to afford positive relief to
the depressed industries and mate.
/ rial interests of the North and West,
the negative relief assured to the
South by the cessation of Republican
rule can hardly be over estimated. 1t
means the removal OF perpetual
menace, hanging like sword over
the heads Of the Southern people, Of
federal interference with local pro
gress and Improvement and of re-
turn to negro domination in the black
districts.
The Southern people have emerg-
ed from the depression and gloom of
the reconstruction" era and of Gear
pet bag rule. The enactn ent of a
force bill threntened to plunge vhem
anew into all the miselies incident to
fresh struggle for politi,u. suprem
acg between the two races whose in
terest it is to live together in peace
and concord. The absolute guaranty
that no force bill can be passed for
four years to come, and if not within
the next four years, then, in all hu
man probability, never passed, lifts
an immense load from the minds and
hearts of the Southern people.
1t does moro. 1t opens the way
to thnt inflow of Northern capital
mud of Northern immigration which
the South needs for It's future devel
opment and prosperity, and which
tue uncertainties of tho political stu
alton under Republican rule were
calculated to prevent. The South
needs diversified i.ldustry-needs

OF its mineral wealth. No exclusive
