SUCCESSFUL TRUCKING.

At the annual meeting of the Truck
and Fruit Growers Association held
at Wilmington. 1t was asccrtaincd that
this year 4o12S crates of Strawberries
had been shipped; that the average
price OF the berries was liz cents a
quart and that the gross receipts
amounted to $l.2S4, 7S7.36.
These figures speak loudly of the
intelligent and progressive spirit of
the truckers of Eastern North Caro-
lima. and of the diversified industries
which are the States reliance for pros
perity. In former years the truckers
had real grievance against the trans
portation companies. We are pleased
to note that this year the transporta-
ton has been satisfactory at n rate
that is fairer and lower than hereto
fore. This great industry is dependent
upon quick and reliable transportation
at moderate cost. 1t is gratifying to
see the officers OF the Atlantic Coast
Line. which has a virtual monopoly
of this traffic, and the truckers working
together to make it n profitable and
growing source of wealth to the gar
den spot of the United States.-Raleigh

NEGRO IMMIGRATION IN HAWAII.
Some of the Reasons Why It Should
Not Be Encouraged.
(From the Chicago Record.)

An attempt will soon be made. 1t
is reported. to foster emigration of
negroes from the United States TO the
new territory of Hawaii. Among the
reasons given for the intended move
ment is the statement that Japanese
and Chinese coolie labor. which is now
the chief means of cultivating the SUI
gar plantations there, has become q
menace TO the peace and permanent
Prosperity of the islands.
Even II the facts We're as stated, IL
is greatly to be doubted whether the
importation of a large number of negro
Iaoorers would improve the situation.
hcnever n movement of n large body
o, people of one nationality or race in
10 territory occupied by Il predominant
element OF different race is proposed
IL is highly important to learn what
Will be the feelings of the existing pop-
uiation toward the newcomers. In the
case OF Hawaii more than one third Of
the residents are natives. They are
iuiiy as dark colored as are most of
the negroes in the United States,
though they have no race or blood az.
iiliation with the latter.
IL Is not always possible to explain
why one race has an antipathy for an
other. Some times the absence of an
apparently rational cause is accom-
pahieu by the most bitter manifesto
lions that the race hatred is firmly
rooted. Unfortunately for the plan
winch contemplateS transferring many
negroes in a mass from the States to
Hawaii. the native IInwaians have an
ineradicable dislike for them. Any at
.eIipt 10 unite natives and negroes in
political or social life would meet with
failure, and 1t is possible that the peace
ana prosperity of the islands would
suffer. Some of the planters. fearing
mat they will be obliged to part with
their present gangs of contract laborcrs
from China aud Japan. are willing to
turn anywhere to get a new supply of
cheap help. but the better-informed
citizens of Honolulu do not wish to see

Alabama Coal Wage Scale.

(By Telegraph to Virginian- Pllot.)
Birmingham, Ala. June 27.-The coal
operators and miners held joint meet
ing to-day to discuss the wage con-
tract for the next year. The miners
submitted their demand for an in
crease of 10 cents per ton, which is
equal to about 20 per cent advance on
the prices now paid. The operators
made q counter proposition TO renew
the present scale for another year.
Without accomplishing any results the
joint meeting adjourned until 10
o'clock tomorrow. There seems to he
a disposition on the part of some of
the miners to yield somewhat in their
demands.

NOT ONLY GOOD. BUT PURE FOOD

If the Sumter county farmers do no.
accumulate some thing for Il rainy day
1t Will not be because of the lack of the
proper effort on their part. The Amer
fcuS Times Recorder notes that apple
dumplings and blackberry pies made
of home-raised flour and sweetened
with homemade sugar is now a dish
that graces the tables of many farmers
here in Sumter" This is not only
good food, but it is pure food" as
we'll. When the farmers of the coun-
try generally adopt the economic
methods and practices noted above
then the country will bloom and bios
som as the rose. Farms must be self
sustaining to be profitable in the true
sense of the term. There is no reason
why every farm in Georgia should not
be f-sustaining.- In
