As1ATIc LABOR IN THE SOUTH.

A Japanese syndicate has bought a
large section Of rice land in Hsrr'f
county, Texas, and will put it under
cultivation next year. II will be set
tied entirely by Japanese, and will be
the second Japanese rice growing
colony in the south. the first being
already established in the neighbor-
hood of Point Layacra. The new i'm
migrants will be men who have been
accustomed to rice growing from their
infancy and have inherited an instinct
from scores, perhaps hundreds. of
generations OF ancestors for the culture
OF that cereal. They are more indus
than the negroes, and will drive them
out of business wherever the two races
come in contact.
If the experiment pleases the immi-
grants they will write home to their
friends, and not improbably there
will be another Asiatic labor question
in America. But as wnite men can
not work in the swampy rice lands it
is not likely that the southern con-
gressmen will object to the immigra-
tion of Japanese laborers, who would
compete only with negroes, and will
not ask for legislation 60 keep them
