Observations Along the

Doings at Reno, Vert, Flofistcn
and Trcckec WI h Sonac
Pcoplo We Know,


This week the DISPATCH man took a
tip to Truckee TO see what there was
10 be seen. We were impressed with
the fact along the river that unless the
unexpected happens there will be very
little water in the Truckee when we
will need the most water.
VERDI.
Verdi Is booming, evident from the
presence Of three surveyors in the
town In one day. The purchase of
large tracts Of timber land by the Verdi
Mill Co.. the building Of a railroad to
transport the logs. a look ahead to 20
years lumber manufacturing and the
employment Of many men for that
length Of time; the proposed develop
ment Of several other industries. all as
sure good times for our sister town.
While It may sadden u Democratic
brethren to hear It, 1t is true that the
tariff is responsible for Verdi prosperity
the tariff as applied to lumber. An
immense feature Of the Verdi Mill
Cos business now is the manufacture
Of boxes. the demand for the coming
season being large and the demand and
supply during 1899 having been unpre-
cedented.
FLoRIsToN.
The power and manufacturing plant
at Floriston Is a thing Of beauty and
will de more to advertise the waters Of
the Truckee than anything else that
can happen for years to come. Now
that somebody has done it, the natural,
long neglected resources Of that dis
trict as exemplified in the water car
ried in the big pipe, thanked by the sub
stantial appearing and beautiful build
ings, cry out a demand that will be ex-
exacted-the employment Of water for
power.
In this connection we stop to say
that we felt deepest to see clouds of
smoke pouring from the stack Of the
smelter at the Reno Reduction Works,
albeit the press Of that village have
been firing all kinds Of mud at the in
stltution ever since the management
now handling II SO successfully, bought
1t to keep the rust from carrying away
the machinery and the rats and the bats
from multiplying and taking the burg.
The Reno Reduction Works will be a
thing to bring shekels soon to the own-
ers and Joy to the Renoites who are
not jealous Of the prosperity Of others
and do not hate even themselves,

THE NEGRO LABORER.

We see frequent allusions of late
to a large exodus Of negroes from
this State. Many have gone, we are
told by railroad men, within the past
year, and others are predicting still
larger movement at an early date.
Concurrent with these statements,
we are hearing of complaints of lack
of labor to pick cotton and do other
farm work.
Are our farmers in a condition to
dispense with this labor? The negro
is unquestionably the best and most
reliable farm laborer, for the South,
that the world has to offer, and Ger
tainly the best that can be had,
should those now here leave, for
generation, if not at all. Does not
Interest, therefore, call for such
action among our farmers-and all,
in fact, who have the agricultural
interests of the State at heart-tO
restore these people to their former
condition of contentment? The mere
denial of the electorate to the lgnO-
rant class will not of itself drive
these people from the homes of their
birth and the associations which are
near and dear to them. Assurances
in other respects of kindly treatment
and protection from abuse and mis-
treatment should be given.-Ralelgn
Post,

AROUT THE RoUNDLAP BALES.

The American Cotton Company is
still paying thousands of dollars to
newspapers that are willing to aid
it's schemes by inserting it's adver-
tisements in such manner as to give
the impression that they are merely
editorial endorsements written in the
interest of the farmer. But it is re-
freshing to find that many editors
and many farmers still have in mind
the old fable of the spider and the
fly. They know that the American
Cotton Company can sell it's presses
at reasonable prices. Why, then, if
it does not wish to make unreason-
able profits, does it refuse to do bust
ness as other business enterprises?
One of the papers not in the pay of
the Round Bale Trust is the Little
ton News-Reporter, and from it's last
issue we get the following para

business institution that leases or
sells any article of commerce manu-
factured by or for it on royalties, is

vent all such concerns doing business
in the State. Take the Roundlap
cotton gin. By refusing to sell their
gin and presses on the same terms as
other manufacturers, but leasing
them on royalties, they propose to
control the cotton product of the
South. Beware of the Roundlap

SECRETARY WILSON'S ADDRESS.

We do not often publish articles of
the length of Secretary Wilson's ad-
dress, given on page of this issue,
but we are sure. that no one who
once gets we'll into Mr.. Wilson s
speech will consider it too long 1t

the needs and opportunities of
Southern farmers. In two sentences
we can give you it's lesson: "Grow
more grasses. Grow moro stock. "
But these sentences do not tell you
why you ought to do these things
why it will pay you to take this ad-
vice. This Mr. Wilson, does. Read
his speech. And when you have
done so, you will not say it was too

We are glad to see that Prof. Gerald
Mccarthy, State Entomologist and
Botanist, has called meeting Of the
fruit growers of the State to be held
in Raleigh Fair week for the purpose
of organizing strong fruit growers

could do much good, and we hope
that fruit growers realize this. The
call will appear in full in next weeks

CHILD LABOR IN FACTORIES.

Elsewhere in this issue is repro
duced thoughtful article from the
Raleigh Post on child labor in the
cotton mills. During the sitting of
the last Legislature we had oppor-
tunity to get the views of mill own
ers and operatives, and we found
that both opposed a stringent law
fixing the age limit for children en-
ployed in cotton mills and also op-
posed any measure regulating the
number of hours the operatives
should work. Petitions came from
the owners and the operators pro-
testing against any interference
Cleveland Star.
Yes, and about half the signers on
the part of the operatives were
worthless fathers doing nothing
themselves but living and drinking
by the labor Of their children who
should have been developing their
minds and bodies, instead of having
both stunted by cOntnlng work in
the cotton mills. Have the children
no rights that ought to berespected2
Since the above was written the
following eloquent paragraph from
the Labor Day address of Col. w. j.
Bryan has come to. our notice, and
we commend it to Bro. Hoey. Col.
Bryan said:
''The labor organization has done
much to lessen the evils of child
labor. No one can visit the factories
where children are employed without
contemplating the crime which is be-
ing perpetrated upon posterity. If
there is any temporary economic
advantage in the employment of
children of tender age, it is insignifi-
can't when measured against the
permanent injury done to present
and future generations. To rob a
child of it's school days is bad
enough, but to bend it's back by a
load for which only the adult is fitted
is even worse. :"

FOR FAIR ELECTIONS.

To those interested in securing
fair and honest election laws, The
Progressive Farmer commends the
plan of Congressman Smith, of Ken
lucky, requiring Democrats to
choose Republican election commits
sioners from lists presented by Re
publicans, and Republicans to select
Democratic commissioners from
lists presented by Democrats, each
party to have equal representation
on the boards This strikes US as
being the most sensible suggestion
yet brought forward. It would put
an end to the appointment of dishon-
est election officers, for while you
may want man who can steal to
represent you, you want a thorough
Iy honest man for the opposition.
We heartily endorse Mr.. Smith s
plan and hope to see it adopted in
North Carolina.

PROTECT THE BIRDS.
long.

The pests of flies and insects are
growing more annoying with every
decade. Our newspapers have re-
Gently contained accounts of market
hunters working under contracts for
thousands of birds of variOu kinds.
The mania to kill something and for
leading sports to run in that line are
telling on our national life in con-
trasting ways. One class of our peo-
pie are killing for sport and another
for market to supply fine feathers
for false fashions.
But both are depriving US of the
native birds which are so beautiful
in our orchards, forests, and shade
trees or fields, whilst their absence
encourages the growth of insect
pests which they were wont to hold
in check by their needs for food.
Therefore farmers and fruit growers
are obliged to arm and spend time to
kill what the birds would have kept
from very harmful prominence.
Not long since we observed a group
of sportsmen shooting bullbats"
which from the weather conditions
were flying low for insects. Within
the village limits we saw about a
peck of our little insectivorous
friends shot for the pleasure of the
killing. Whoever of those sports
men, we wonder, ever read, or if he
read, thought of, Senator Ingalls,
opening sentence in the eulogy on
Senator Beck: ''The right to live
is, in human estimation, the most
sacred, the most inviolable, the most
inalienable." F. E. E.

ing careful to dress off top SO that
there will be no leak and the hay
will keep dry in case Of rain. Allow
to stand in cocks no longer than
necessary, as the hay becomes
weather beaten very easily. 1t is
best, of course, to use hay caps, as
this keeps the water from running
in the crown of the piles.
When once man gets into the
good habit of sowing this valuable
soil restorer and stock feeder, he is
in fair way to make a success of
farming. What pays we'll, should
be pleasant in farming, as we are
after the dollar first, and the pleas
ure of thing follows in close wake
of the dollar.
1t would pay any farmer to try a
small area any way, and test it for
himself on his own land and then
there can be no mistake. Every
farmer ought to run an experiment
station on his own farm, on limited
scale, of course. He should be ever
on the alert for new ideas and new
things This experimenting can be,
and is, no doubt, carried to an ex-
cess by some, but the wide awake
farmer should and will prove any
thing before going into it on big
scale.
If you are not growing crimson
clover already, start out this fall to
growing it, thereby feeding your
stock better and enriching your soil.
