Shortly after the discovery of the

reehed the scene, man was seen
toleap from the second story Win

The Graphic does not doubt that
Mr. PHkington, the appointe for road
and bridge commissioner, will handle
the county funds entrusted to his
care honestly any good citizen would
do that-but it does contend than an
expert civil engineer could handle the
same funds just as honestly and the
county derive more benefit from his
knowledge and experience.

son we have had reports OF the in
ability of farmers to get any
thing like enough laborers Tor

of the labor element to the
cities. the factories, the sawmills, etc,
has left the farm short-handed not
only at harvest time in many sec
tions. but at the seeding and cultivat-
ing times as we'll. We have hereto
fore expressed the opinion that with
in a few years the bulk OF the cotton
crop would be raised on small farms,

in this matter is the same as that

fact few plantations are at present
realizing the plantation owners a fair
dividend on their investments. Labor
gets scarcer by reason OF the fact the
laborers are seeking other avocations
which are opening to them every year,
and as labor gets scarcer the price
goes higher,
The Graphic has at various times
called attention to the fact that the
big plantations in the tobacco belt
have passed away, and have been sue

has been that tobacco growing has
increased and a better and more thrift

The Graphic does not wish to be un.
derstood as even duplicating that no

that his home can be called his own
