"M1LK AND HoNEY."--There is
more significance in the Biblical ex-
preston of "a land that flows with
milk and honey" than is generally un-
derstood. 1t is a physical or diges.
tive, so to speak, significance. For
there is a connection between milk
and honey that makes the latter of
much more value as food when the
relation between the two is under
stood. 1t exists in the fact that honey
in large quantities can be eaten by
anyone who will drink sweet milk
freely at the same time.
Just what the natural affinity be-
tween the two is, in astronomical
sense, we do not know, but we do
know that sweet milk is good anti
dote for what otherwise would be an
overdose of honey. Whether the an
clients knew of this happy connection
between the two articles of food that
have associated in immortal verse Of
course is unknown. But from the
fact that milk and honey unite in the
human system without painful or in
furious effect, it is quite probable that
they did.

BELONGS TO GREAT BRITAIN.-In-
cited, says Washington dispatch, by
the newspaper publications tending to
throw doubt upon the ownership of
the Klondike gold fields, some of the
high government officials who would
naturally be expected to deal with the
question if it comes to practical is
sue, have been quietly looking into the
matter with view to preparing them
selves for any controversy that may
arise. Their views are in substance
that there can be no valid objection
advanced to the title of Great Britain
to this territory. A careful examina-
tion of all of the charts and maps
made far enough back in date to be
free from suspicion of influence Of the
recent heavy gold finds, has convinced
the officials that so far as the Klondike
fields, as defined by the latest reports,
are concerned, there can be no ques-
tion but that they lie east of the 141st
meridian, which defines the boundary
line, and 80 are within British territory
by about 35 miles at least. AS for the
meridian itself, it is said that it has
been so closely located by the surveys
of the Canadians and our own coast
survey, that there is not at any point
a difference of more than 700 feet in
the claimed boundary, which, of COURSE.
would not substantially affect any con-
troversy that might grow out of the
title.

A GLOOMY PRosPECT.-The new
cotton trust is causing the New Or
leans Times Democrat much anxiety.
A process for baling cotton in cylin-
drical bales, known as the Bessonette
process, has been patented and the
patent is owned by the American Cot
ton company. This company is said
to be child of the sugar trust. 1t
has established its presses at a small
town in Mississippi, on the river, and
our New Orleans contemporary is
alarmed lest this patent shall give the
company control of the cotton crop of
the south just as the cottonseed oil
trust got the cotton seed upon its own
terms. The reason of this alarm is
that the new baling process possesses
such advantages over the prevailing
method that finally cotton will not be
readily marketable unless baled by the
Bessonette process. Should this come
to pass, the fears of the Times-Demo-
crat may be realized. 1t suggests that
to provide against future abuses of
power the new company should be
before it becomes too power
full to attack. Recent experience in
the senate and in the legislatures of
many states teaches us that the rich
trust exercises a power which is as
as it is potent.-Baltimore

NEGRO LABOR In ATLANTA.-Up-
wards of 1000 men, women and chill
dren went out on strike at the Full
ton Bag and Cotton mills, in Atlanta,
last Wednesday, and came near pre-
cipitating a riot. The only reason
probably why there was no bloodshed,
was for the lack of a determined lead
er. The cause of the strike was the
employment of 25 Negro women in the
feeding department of the bag factory,
where over 200 women and girls are
employed. The management claims
that they were compelled to employ
Negroes as they could not secure suf-
ficiency of white laborers to carry on
their business. The white women re-
fused to go to work unless the Negroes
were discharged and at noon the en-
ployees of the mill walked out.

PROFESSOR MORRISON.
Prof. Morrison was the last speaker.
His subject was industrial education,
aud he spoke for about an hour, and
all that he said was in defense of all
the educational institutions of the
state. South Carolina, he said, has
not one school or college too many,
and not one of them is any better sup
ported than it should be. He wanted
to see them all patronized, and in il
lustration of his idea of the import
ance of education, he said: "If /
should say or do anything to prevent
any boy or girl from entering any one
of these institutions, I would feel that
1 was meaner than the man who would
stick torch to a corn.c crib in time of
famine, or poison one of the few re-
naming springs in time of drought"
He reviewed the various experiments
that have been made with industrial
educational institutions in this country
since 1840, and explained, at consider
able length, the special field and mis-
sion of Clemson college. His talk
was interesting and entertaining
throughout.

eluded the exercises, and upon motion
