The Sunday Charleston Gazette
has q column article gloating over
the prospect of the Standard Fold
ing Bed Co., removing from this
place to Charleston, and indulges in
a great many Wild fancies. We
would. however, remind our friend
that the Standard Folding Co., has
not yet pulled up stakes and start.
ed for Charleston, and we doubt
very much if the company ever
does. Charleston has yet many
things to do before this company
will consent to go to that place
They are appraised of the real estate
sharpers that abound in Charleston,
and are not yet ready to be swindled
out of.their costly plant. We take
it that the men who compose the
Standard Folding Bed Co., of this
place, are thorough business men,
and will not be caught mapping by
the Charleston sharks. 1t will re-
main here some time yet, and the
probabilities are that Charleston
will never get this plant, for that
town will never do what it has
promised to do for this company.
They can't do tit is an impossi-
bility. The whole move had its IN
inception in the brain of a few men
who own real estate in the swamps
along Elk river, that oyerfows every
time the wiclets of Lock are up.
These men have about 800 acres of
land in that locality, and have put
200 lots on the market at $500 a lot,
and gulled a number of people into
buying them, for which they could
not realize to-day half tho money
they invested in them. They hoped
to get this factory up there and
then boom their alternate lots at
big prices, and fool the people into
buying them at Dubious prices.
The whole plat is a frog pond,
and at nights the place is made
hideous by the believing of mill
ions of frogs.

Senator Hill, chairman of the
committee on immigration, intro
duced a bill in the Senate last week,
which, if passed aud properly en-
forced, will effectualIy stop the land
ing upon our shores of Objectionable
aliens. Provision is made in the
bill for Inspectors, to be stationed
at the principal ports Of departure,
and no immigrant will be permitted
to land in this country unless sup
piled with a certificate from one of
these Inspectors.
There is pending now a House
bill, similar in all respects to Hills
measure, excepting that the former
makes it the duty of our foreign
Consuls to do the inspection. This
is matter of detail, however, and
does not affect the self-evident
value of the bill.
The Hill measure was drafted by
Immigrant Commissioner Stump
and is Endorsed by the State and
Treasury Departments. In all
probability it will become law.
The sentiment is growing that this
country shall no longer be the
dumping ground for the criminal
and pauper classes of Europe. All
the legal bulkwarks that are neces-
sary should be constructed at once
and continuously kept in efficient
condition.-Post.
