Labor in the South

At the recent convention of southern
governors held at Richmond, Va, an
address was adopted praying Presi-
dent Cleveland to appoint southernere
as ministers in foreign countries which
now supply desirable class of immi-
grants to the United States. Without
stating it in words the intention @.
the gu disorders to this petition clear.
ly was to have the advantages of the
South SO placed before the emgrating
citizens of other countries that they
would migrate hither on their landing
instead of following the old ruts
which leads them to, and leaves them
in, less favored sections.
Some OF the Northern papers have
taken exception to this action of the
Southern governors and argued that
American ministers and consuls are
not supposed 10 be immigration
agents, and further that the South
does not need labor, as she has a suffi-
cheney for her necessities in the negro.
1t is fact that we have the negro,
and it is also a fact he is
numerous" enough to perform all
the unskilled labor on the
market; but there are other facts in
the same connection. The negro as at
