A WRITER in the Sharon Record advises
people not to rise and rummage the house
for burglars when they hear noises. He
says: 'Let the burglars burgle. Better
lose last years overcoat and filed case
watch or so than furnish the central at

writer is entirely too cautions. Burglars
are not dangerous people, as q rule, il you
observe the precaution Of not getting be-
tween them and their means Of exit from
the house. They would rather retire than
fight or kill.

LITERATURE DRYING Up

In the January number Of The 70
rum sydney g. Fisher discusses the
effect Of immigration upon American
literature. His article headed. Has
Immigration Dried up Our Litera-
ture?" classes our great men Of litera-
ture as belonging almost exclusively TO
Connecticut. Pennsylvania. New York
and New Jersey. For these states he
mentions only one each for all but
Massachusetts,, for which he mentions
fifteen.
The writer emphasizes the fact that
they were all born between 1850 and
1920, except Bayard Taylor Of Penn
sylvania. and he was born in 1o23.
The birth-period of these men, says
the writer, is embraced in the forty
wears from 1880 to 1920, and since that
period there have been very few men
born, even in Massachusetts,, who can
az al lay claim to literary greatness
such as characterized those who were
horn during the period mentioned.
rIar Fisher says that after 1920 or
1925 the people lost their real Identity
or homogeneity, by reason of immlgra-
ton and have therefore fallen back
from the high standard of literary
merit which had developed in a num-
Der of men up to that time.
The writer concludes in the following
sombre view of the literary outlook:
massachusetts, once the home of a
pure and native stock, has more than
80 per cent of her population foreign,
and the foreign element is principally
Irish and French Canadian Her hO-
mogeneousness and her literature are
destroyed. The descendants of her old
people still hold themselves together in
a way, and possess in a modified and
mediocre form some of the character
istics of the past and doubtless this
state of things will continue for long
time. But the high and the deep
tones are gone, and it is not likely that
we shall ever hear them again.

TO DEVELOP THE COUNTY.

Beginning with the next issue The
DEMOCRAT will suggest some things
looking to the development OF the
county. Halifax comfy is one OF the
best and most inviting counties IN
Eastern Carolina and with the present
condition Of affairs it is most Oppor-
tune time to take steps towards intro
ducing immigration to the county.
We shall propose that the county
commissioners and magistrates IN their
Joint meeting in June make small APP
preparation for advertising the resour-
ces of the county. Now, let every one
read carefully and consider intelligent
ly before he approves or condemns.

Here's a sample of Joe Daniels idea
of distributing government pie, and
what he is here for:
Three persons were in Joe's Office the
other day one was an employe IN the
classified service, and wanted an office
for friend, and one just happened to
be in. The friend of the office seeker
had finished his little speech, and Joe,
in his good natured, but business like
way said ''Is he Democat?" The
Civil Service reformer saw an opporttl-
nifty and made haste to use it. L can t
see the force of that question" said he,
"what difference does it make whether
man is a Democrat or not ?" 1T makes
a dinerence with me-" said Joe, land ii
is the first thing to settle Then he
had something to say about Office seek
ers which led the Civil Service cham
pion to say: well, NJ. Daniels, YOU
have been some what of an office seeker
Yourself. You came here after an Office
and got It." ''What :" said Joe in great
Il came here seeking an
office? Not much. Do you think !
would come here to ask for little 80
600 clerkship? Do you think a few
paltry dollars wOnld induce me to come
and beg IN Office? You were never
more mistaken in your life. / came
here to accept the position of Appoint
ment Clerk that / might put a thous-
and rascals out of office [ completed
the lob and have now come over here
to the Chief Clerks Office to stop you
from buying everything in creation,
and when | get that done III resign
and so home"
The Civil Service refor,ner has not
spoken since.

Senator Vance is the representative
Democrat of North Carolina. His bear
ing in the passage at arms which occur
red during the extra session of Congress
has endeared him more than ever to
the people of his State for whose inter-
ests he has ever stood up boldly and
uncompromisingly. His is the stand
ard under which the Democracy of the
State will march to victory next Novem-
ber North Carolina is essentially and
necessarily Democratic and must re-
main so. There is no Disgusting of the
fact that a powerful effort will be made
to defeat the Democracy at the next
election. The final effort of expiring
populism will be made to carry the
STATE, out Iuc result VIII De as IL was at
the last election. There was never anv
real cause for detection from the State
Democracy and many of the best men
who left it two years ago are with it
now and to stay. State politics and ma
tional politics are two different things
and many who did not realize as much
in the heat of the late campaign have
more carefully considered their duty as
citizens since casting their ballots. The
friends of reform can only destroy the
possibility of reform by breaking ranks
from the Democracy, and can only lose
self respect by seeking to attain control
of the State by an alliance that would
be dishonorable, and disgusting to the
best element of the secessionists.
