White White
Convicts Prisoners

According to this showing there is
30 per cent less crime among Southern
whites than in tire rest of the coun-
try, and only % per cent as much as
there is in the West.
1t is proper to cotfine. these statisl
tics to the whites, because the black
race is exceptional In it's lawlessness,
and the East and the West are com;
pdratively free from this element OF
population.
In reply to these facts some OF the
Northern papers charge that too
many crimes 20 unpunished in the
South. We challenge q comparison
of our codes aud our court records.
Our penalties are flotoriously more
severe than they are elsewhere, and
whether the crime be murder, rape,
embezzlemcnt, larceny, gambling, Of
the carrying Of concealed weapons,
our officials are eager to prosecutej
and our juries are not tcndcrshearted
when the evidence jltstities q convic-
tion.
The only drawback 6f Justice 10 the
Soutl, is the laws delay, and we are
/ trying to remedy that rs fast as pos
sibIe. We feel c0nfdeut that these
statements will be sustained BY the
Northerncrs who have resided here

With changes strange and 3ager,
While man alone, ofal that pnc, \,

To hun, each rapid rolling sea-s ) y !, A

'Ts marked sometimes by bitter tear,
And sometimes by sweet pleasure;
But, each sun brings the solemn thought
That grows and grows still grayer-
This life is leading on to naught
Or nearer to Gods favor.
Then, is there need of any aim,
Or any vast endeavor
That adds not to our futures fame,
Or fits us for the ever?
Each year there's much to be undone,
And much to be forgiven;
But still we trust each passing year
viii leave us nearer heaven.

is home without newspaper ?" an
Iowa exchange says: "lt's a place

the dismal swamp painted on his

September Weather.

September was a month Of extremes In
temperature, with light precipitation, and
with several severe local storms On the
10Th a frost was experienced in most val
leys, and considerable damage was done
In the northern states. The 2lst to the 23d
gave unusually warm weather, with
strong drying winds, and newly seeded
ground was dried-apples, ungathered
fruit and tomatoes were badly scaded.
The rain was not sufficient for surface
growth, and pastures were reported in
poor condition generally. Apples have
dropped badly.
The season as whole has been very
favorable for crop advancement, aud 10
closes with most crops harvested in extra
fine condition. Corn especially Is very
sound and fine and has cured we'll. AL.
though, for the most part, showers have oc.
Cured with sufficient frequency for crops,
there have been no long rains during the
summer, and the deficiency for the year
amounts to 10 inches and over In many
parts Of New England.
