most, and as a rule confine them
selves to newspapers and maga-
zines. The more they pay the
more they prosper, and the more
they prosper the more they pay
the printer, and SO the business
grows even more rapidly than the
circulation. 1t is hard for those
who have not been educated in
the business to comprehend how
profitable judicious, persistent and
liberal advertising is; how any
firm can afford to pay $4,000 for a
small page in a monthly magazine
a year; how the merchants of New
York can afford to pay $4,000 for
tie use Of the Herald's advertis-
ing columns a single day; how
those in Manchester can get back
the comparatively small amounts
they pay for having the public in
formed as to what they have to
sell; but they all do it and make
big profits in doing it.
In this, as we have already sug-
gested, is the secret of the cheap
ness of newspaper, which, al
things considered, are cheaper
than any other article that people
buy with Manchester, n

PARISH FAIR.

The MESSENGER has been think
ing for the past years if the Par
ish Fairs given in the several par
ishes annually, were of any profit
to the general public, but we are!
now convinced they are of incal-
culable profits to the planter and
the stock raiser.
They are beneficial because the
planters bring to the fair their
best crops, and garden vegetables,
their best horses, COWS, hogs, chic
ken etc, they explain to the large
number of people who attend the
fair how, and by what means such
satisfactory results were attained,
and as an inducement to raise the
best, rewards or premiums are gi-
wen to the most successful.
At these fairs lectures on agri-
culture are read by experience
agriculturists, that are always
beneficial to any section of agri-
cultural country.
Suppose the Police Jury would
investigate and think over the
matter; we are confident that al
appropriation of one or two thou.
sand dollars yearly, for a parish
fair, would be a good investment
because we believe the result thai
would follow would be surprising
The MESSENGER would like t.
have the views of our people OIL
this subject, and, invites its dis
cussiOn.

TRUE AMERICANS.

The oft made assertion that the
heart of America is in the South
ern States is bourne by the figures
of the eleventh census. In the
South the per centage of foreign
born population is smaller than
any in other part of the United
States; here the Anglo-Saxon
stock has been kept pure; here
are to be found the truest patri-
OTIS, and as pure native born Amer
leans, bred of Puritan or Cavalier
ancestry, have in the past control
led the destinies of this Republic,
in the future for leadership the
nation must look to the South.
In the Northern, Eastern and
Western States the native popu-
lation has become so mixed by
inter-marriage with foreigners that
the national characteristics OF the
American are fast fading from
view; he is losing his identity; and
the alleged American is but a
! mong+el.
The Carolinas, Louisiana, Mis-
sissippi and Alabama rank lowest
in the scale of per centage in re-
gard to foreign born residents.
Virginia, Georgia and Texas, be-
| ing next on the list. Those States
having the largest population OF
foreigners being New York, Rhode
Island. New Jersey, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, Montana and Califor.
MIA.
In Mississippi, Georgia and the
Carolinas, the foreign element is
less than one per cent, while IL
only one of the Northern States
mentioned does it fall lbelow TWEEN
ty-fve per cent! Isn't that com
parison enough?
Some distinguished ex-Federa
soldier recently said at a banque
lin New York, that for the future
leaders of the country, both il
peace and war, the nation shoul(
look to the South; he venture(
the prediction that in twenty year
Southerners would hold over one
half OF the positions of trust ant
responsibility, and said that h
for one, an old Union soldier, wa
willing to see it so.
He was gifted with a vision al
, most prophetic, or else he ha'
been a close student of American
history, politics, and the growtl
of the country.-Clarion Ledger.

SATURDAY FEB. 8, 1896.
Address to the Cotton Grow.

ITO the Cotton Growers Of America:
The Cotton Growers Protective
Association of America, in cOnven-
ton assembled at Memphis, Tenn.
ON the 2lst day of January 1896,
again come to You with an urgent
appeal for cooperative action in
planting the crop for 1896. 1t is a,
matter of extreme congratclation
that the appeal made to you last
year was so generally responded
to and that the crop of 1898 made
upon the dimished acreage has
had the effect of greatly increas-
ing the price and bringing pros
perity to the country. The crop
of 1895, though estimated to be
100000 bales short of the crop OF
1894, was in the markets of the
world worth more by nearly $780,
100000. In the face of this re-
suit, to abandon the idea of dimi-
nished acreage would be to sound
the retreat in the face of victory.
It is the concensus of opinion
among the best thinkers that if
by any means the cotton crop OF
America could be held within ten
years, the people Of these South
ern States would be the richest
t'and most prosperous agricultural
people in the world. How can this
be brought about? The answer
is with you.
1--WE appeal to your self-interest
and to your patriotism to do all in
your power to keep down the pro-
ductien of the staple. Do not
abandon the ground you have
won. So fight on upon the lines
laid down; make the cotton States
self-supporting; put more land IN
clover and grasses for your hogs
to run on; diversity your crops
and when you have done all this
the area devoted to cotton will
yield more profitable returns than
il yor sought to increase the mum.
ber Of bales.
ut is felt by the most thought
full men that we are entering upon
a year OF great uncertainties; and
that even small cotton crop may
fail to give adequate returns fol
its production. The mutteringi
of a storm are disturbing tht
country and dnsettling all bust
ness calculations. The prdden
man WILL trim His sails to meet it
/, With the commerce Of the couD
try interrupted by war-and il
may COME cotton would be un
salable except at nominal prices
Every consideration then; Of pa
triotisin, of self-ihterest and o
prudence dictates that you adhere
strictly to the rule Of diminished
acreage. Earnest meh are earn
estly working to lead yon and t
guide you into prosperity. D.
not let them labor in vain, bu

Ludae kileore in Washington.

A special from Washington to the
Fort Worth Gazette says:
"Judge c. B. Kilgore reached here
last night to look after the charges
filed against him before congress. No
one seems to consider these charges
of serious weight
From the best information at hand,
the ARDMOREITE feels justified in
saying the above is incorrect. Judge
Kilgore was called to Washington on
business connected with the depart
ment of justice and effecting
this district. 1t is presumed,
however, that while the charges of
Mr.. Davis had nothing whatever to
do with his going to Washington, he
will make his defense in person if
called on to do so.

Accident to Miss May Lawry.

Miss May Lawry of this city. stu
dent at the Coburn Classical institute
was out riding on her wheel, yesterday
and while going down Pleasant street.
attempted to pass two teams which
were going in the opposite direction to
that in which she was riding. One
team driven by Mr.. Frank Lincoln was
nearest Miss Lawry, and as she was
but just able to guide her wheel
clumsily. being green rider she was
struck by Mr.. Lincoln's team, knocked
down and the horse and wagon passed
over her. When picked up she was un-
conscious and remained so for a long
time large cash was cut in her
cheek extending nearly to the ear. She
hnally recovered consciousness aud
was removed to her home. Mr. Lincoln
was in no way to blame as he of course
supposed the young lady was able to
control her wheel sufficiently to pro-
tect herself from danger of teams.
