NOT QUALIFIED FOR THE BALLOT.

At last the Republican party has come
to the conclusion that there are people
| living under the American flag who are
not qualified for the ballot. In the bill
providing a government for Hawaii. pend
ing in the Senate, the ballot is denied 10
all of the people of those islands except
those who have certain property and edu-
cationaI qualifications. The percentage of
those who will have the right to vote, If
this bill becomes a law, is small.
While there is nothing in the bill which
| refers in the remotest way to the negroes
of the South, there are reasons for think
ing that it has a very important bearing
upon their political future. They were
given the ballot because the Republican
party thought that it would be able TO
control the Southern states through them.
1t has failed to do So The South is solidiy
Democratic. and is likely to remain so as
long as the negro has the ballot.
The Republican party therefore does
not care as much for the negro from the
standpoint of politics as it once did That
this is true is evident from the fact that
it. has taken no steps in response to APP
peals from the negro, to have the amend
ment to the constitution of Louisiana dis
franchising ignorant voters, set aside as
being unconstitutional. A similar amend
ment will be adopted in North Carolina,
in all probability. in August next. Mis-
sissippi and South Carolina have prac-
tically disfranchised ignorant negro vot-
ers. The Republican party has said moth
ing against these efforts to get rid of the
class of voters aimed at in the constit-
tional amendments adopted in the forego-
ing states.
And it is probable thai it would take no
steps in behalf of the negro if, in all OF
the other Southern states, ignorant ne
groes should be DISTINGUISHED. 1t is diff
icult to see how it could consistently do
so in the face of the declaration it virtu-
ally makes in the bill for the admission
Of Hawaii. If the natives in those islands
are not fit 10 have the ballot the ignorant
portion of the negro population of this
country is not fit to have it. If the Re
publican party intended to raise the ques-
ton of the right of the Southern states
to disfranchise ignorant negro voters 1t
would hardly have taken the position it
has relative to the ignorant portion of the
population of the Hawaiian Islands By
| denying the ballot to ignorant people Of
those Islands 1t practically says that in
order to have good government the con-
troll of the ballot box must be kept in
the hands of the most intelligent portion
of the people.
On this question of the ballot the Re-
| publican party has changed its attitude
since the days of reconstruction. Then
1t was willing, and even anxious, that the
most ignorant part of the population OF
the South should have absolute control Of
public affairs. No doubt the changed at
titude of the Republican party on the
question of the importance of keeping ig-
norance away from the ballot box will
be the subject of an interesting discus
sion in the Senate while the Hawaiian bill
is under consideration.

MILL BUILDING IN THE SOUTH.

Sometime ago we made the prediction
that the time was not so very far distant
when pretty nearly all of the cotton
grown in the South Atlantic states
would be consumed by mills in those
states. The increase in the number of
cotton mills within the last year in this
state and the Carolinas is remarkable,
and new mills are being projected all the
time. In our dispatches yesterday ac-
counts were given of three new mills that
are to be erected in North Carolina. One
is to cost 100000 and another $1OO0,00
These are immense plants, and it will
take a great many bales of cotton annu-
ally to keep them in operation.
1t is doubtful If North Carolina now
raises enough cotton to supply her mills,
and it is certain that the time is rapidly
approaching when South Carolina will
have to go outside of her borders for the
raw material needed by her mills.
Mill building in this state is not quite so
active as it is in the Carolinas, but there
are very good reasons for thinking that
the time is close at hand when activity
in this respect will be very much greater.
Georgia, and advantages which are pos
sessed by no other Southern state. For
instance, there is an electrical plant be-
ing constructed at Columbus, to be run
by water power, that will afford a very
large number of mills ample power at a
cost much less than the cost of either
water or steam power.
Georgia must recognize the fact that if
she gets any outside capital she will have
to compete for it. Mississippi is
proposing to offer freedom from
taxation for ten years as an in
ducement to establish cotton mills
in that state. No doubt other states will
follow Mississippis example. Georgia
must be as liberal as other Southern
states in the matter of inducements for
the building of cotton factories. If her
constitution is in the way of doing any
thing of that kind the sooner she amends
her organic law the better it will be for
her.

Lives Lost Through Fear.

Presence of mind. when confronted by
danger" said N. P. Berry of New Or
leans, according to the New York Trib-
une, has saved many lives, while the ac-
count has been more than balanced by the
loss of life through loss of nerve in critical
emergencies. Any. member of a. fire de-
partment or other person familiar with
such things can give you numerous IN
stances of lives lost solely on this ac-
count and this rule holds true in other
cases as well. l remember onpe walking
with a girl and thoughtlessly speaking of
a harmless green snake 1 saw in the grass
behind her. She became paralyzed with
fear and, before l could prevent her, back
ed directly on the snake. A friend of mine,
who was in a fire told me that his wife
became so frightened that she insisted on
going into a closet, from which, scream
ing and struggling, he had to resJue her
by main strength. On the other hand, 1
ONCE knew a woman who, driven with her
sister and two children to take refuge on
the fourth floor of her burning home, first
threw her children, then compelled her sis
ter to jump, into the waiting net, and then
calmly and uninjured made the descent
herself, only to go into Mysteries when it
was all over A friend of mine, who lives
in Charleston, told me that just after the
earthquake there some years ago he met
the sister of a friend walking down the
street clad chiefly in her brothers dress
dat, and, although the streets were crowd
ed at the time, no one seemed to think
her costume out of the ordinary. Presence
of mind can to a great extent be culti-
waited, but 1t is largely inherited. My
brother, who is as brave a man as I ever
knew, has an unalterable and unconquer-
able fear of a thunderstorm, which, try
as he will, he has never been able to over
come

CASE OF LIMITED VISION.

Mr. Abner Mckinley talked interesting
| ly about the South on his return 10 New
York from his Southern trip. Much CT
! what he said appeared in a special dis
patch in the Morning News yesterday. If
he had confined his talk to the part OF the
South he visited his remarks would have
come nearer to being of real value. his
journey was by way of the Seaboard Air
Line to Atlanta and back. He saw MOTH
ing Of the coast country of South Car
DINA and Georgia, and nothing at all OF
Florida, and yet he undertakes 10 give
advice to the farmers of those sections.
He seems to have the idea that there Is
no truck raised in the South, and he
gravely tells the farmers of this section
that there is no reason why they should
not do a thriving business in raising ear
ly vegetables for the markets of the
Northern cities. According to his view
they could send truck 20 che Northern
cities so much sooner than il could be
sent there by the truck farmers of New
Jersey that they could get remarkably
good prices.
Ar of this is of course very true, but it
is not new. For these many years South
ern Georgia and Florida have been sending
early vegetables to the Northern markets,
and they are doing it now. They are
sending them by the carload and shipload
They send so much truck of one kind and
another that it sometimes happens that
they glut the markets, and prices fab 50
low as not 90 be remunerative. Now and
then the cold weather catches their crops
and, having to replant, they do not have
as much of an advantage over the farm
ers further North as when the winter is
continuously open.
The fact remains, however, that they
are very much alive to the profit there is
in early vegetables If Mr.. Mckinley had
come to Savannah, or had gone to Flor
ida instead of lingering in Atlanta, he
would have seen enough truck farming
to make him certain that the farmers Of
this section of the South are fully alive
to the advantages they enjoy Where
does Mr. Mckinley think the early pota-
toes, Strawberries, lettuce, peas and beans
which he enjoys at the Waldorf-Astoria
or Delmonicos, even before the New Jer-
sey truck farmers have begun to plant
their fields, come from? In his visit TO
the South Mr.. Mckinley confined his OBJ
servations to the section which knows lit
tie or nothing about early truck farming.
His field of observation was too limited
to enable him to speak authoritatively re-
speeding the products of as wide a sec
ton of country as was covered by his
talk
