ITALIAN IMMIGRATION.

will, at thepropar time, arise To leadership Says he
Ihe ruler of the steel trust is the man who can con

WELCOME THE pYTHIANs.

Greenville is neither conceited nor so orpefu O
the welcomes accorded her people in other parts as Il
claim to be the most hosptable town in Mississippi But
with becoming modesy, she does assert that no Other

Of Entertaining any state gathering and is therefore with
added pleasure that she receives the coming Pythans
We hear it asserted from time time that the relations
between the Delta and other parts of the state are not
cordial as should be. 1t is said that he H and 'sthe

respective representatives don't gee we'll together in the
legislature. Not attempting measure the proportions
OF truth and mssatement contained such in

each other If any visitor GreenviIe should entertain

that personal contact will remove the impression before

We would not welcome these visitors ''for this day

many will be so favoraby impressed as to want to come

one OF the most troublesome questions confronting this
government in the Philippines is that arising from the
and influence of the friars and the alleged hes
tile reatont existing between them and leading natives
and residents Fitting government one of whose car
dna tenets is the separatonof church and state to
pie who have lived under government wherein for all
practical purposes the church was the state is at best
delicate undertaking. When this condition is added
tne TACT OF the influence exerted by the Philippine frar
ana the power and wealth arising from their enormous
ano noalngs the task is rendered still more difficult
The attitude of the administration and tho pb,linno
commission is conceded to be hostile to the foro
favorable to their snppantng by priests from America
In the quiet accomplishment of solution of these diff;
cues it is said that Cardinal Gibbons and Arcbbsbon
Ireland have been appealed to for assistance and have
promised it. =
