LABOR SCARCE IN TERRELL.

Dawson News: The scarcity of farm
labor promises to prevent a material in
crease of the cotton acreage in Terrell
county The complaint of the scarcity
of labor is general, and on some farms
mules are standing in the lot because
there is nobody to work them. One far
mer told the News Monday that only half
of his place was in cultivation, and that
he had sold one mule and had three more
to dispose of because he could not get
hands. Some of the farmers of the coun-
~ are repanting their entire cotton crops.
They are blowing up all the seed that
were planted two or three weeks ago, and
are planting again. The cause of 1t is
that the recent heavy rains and winds
packed the ground and formed a crust
which the sprouting seed cannot come
through. The farmer stated a few days
ago that he was then replanting $50 acres.

PLANTING CORN IN APRIL.

Sandersville Progress: A good many
farmers are waiting for the weather to
get right before planting corn. Corn plant
ed in April almost invariably makes more
satisfactory crops than that planted in
March. as better stands are obtained. the
growth is more rapid, and there is less
liability of damage from drought during
the roasting ear stage. One of Washing
ton county's most extensive farmers al
ways made it a rule to plant his corn
crop in April and he never had TO buy
any. Viewed from this standpoint the
delay will cause no harm.

EVERYBODY GOES FISHING.

Americas Times Recorder; THE Man
with the Hoe" was all right from a
poetic standpoint, but had the author
lived in Americas, and at this season If
the year, he would have sung Of THE
Man With the Pole" instead. Business
is dull, people want recreation; they are
AFFLICTED with that tired feeling" for
which fishing is the panacea., and
straightway they go fishing. The whole
populace, seemingly, went yesterday. The
streets were deserted; stores, ditto. One
day of the week is all that is needed here
now for the transaction of business.

MAKE IT UNANIMOUS
FOR JUDGE LITTLE
ID - - d r. 80. !:

To fks Editor Of tks ReDzbliess:
Sir:-Let ali the people Of Hawaii
unite for once and make the uomins.
tioa Of Judge Little for Governor
unanimous
There are the strongest indications
that such is the desire in every local
ity and there is the strongest kind OF
reasons for that desire. To mention
a few. might not be out Of place
When the great civil war broke out
Judge Little was a Young man with
life all before him He was not found
wanting in courage and patriotism
then and il is safe TO say that such
courage and patriotism is above ques-
ton now. BY this do not mean TO
say that there are no patriots. except
those who had an opportunity 10 show
il on the battle field, far from It. Nv
father volunteered in the Union cause
but was rejected fer physical dis
ability. yet I consider him no less a
patriot than Lincoln or Grant. Judge
Little is not a carpet-bagger. He
came TO Hawaii 10 succeed by his own
merits solely and by hard work has
succeeded reasonably well. I do not
pretend TO say that a few carpet-bag
gers would be a bad thing for Hawaii.
on the other hand our experience
with the few federal officers who
were sent here after the organization
of the Territory has been a cause for
congratulation among the people of
these Islands who wish to see Hawaii
made Territory of the Great Repub-
lie. in fact as well as in name The
genuine sorrow pervading all classes
upon hearing the news of Col. Baird's
death is eloquent. 1t shows the high
esteem in which he was held as an
officer and citizen among his newly
acquired friends.
Judge Little has confidence in all
the people as is evidenced by the
amendment which he proposed to the
Organic Act and advocated before the
Committee on Territories. at Wash
ington. during the seth congress, as
follows:
That section four be amended to
read as follows:
Sec. 4. That all persons who were
citizens of the Republic of Hawaii |
on August u. 1898, and all persons
who were citizens OF the monarchy |
on the day of the overthrow by the |
Dole government, are hereby declared |
to be citizens of the United States, |
upon their taking and subscribing to |
the prescribed oath. as required by |
this Act"
His remarks thereon. before the |
were as follows:
The reason for suggesting the
to section 4 must be obvi,
Gus to all who are familiar with the !
affairs of Hawaii. The overthrow of
the monarchy was without warning.
and it must be admitted. without
right. and thus deprived of the right
Of citizenship hundreds of men who
we're born. reared and educated on the
Hawaiian Islands
These men have always confOrmed
10 the laws of the Dole government,
lepcrting themselves properly, paving
axes. etc, but absolutely refused to
axe the oath of allegiance to the Dole
