SOuth'S Agricultural Future.

Secretary of Agriculture Wilson has, it
IS stated, been making a most careful
study of the agricultural situation in the
South and takes 4 most optimistic view
OF its future. He is convinced that South
ern agriculture is destined to experience
a great revival and the greatest devel-
cpment that has taken place in any sec
ton of the country. This, he thinks, will
be brought about by system of smaller
holdings, diversfication Of crops and the
abandonment of great single crop enter
prises.
Our own idea has long been that a
brighter day was destined to dawn for
Southern agriculture, and that farming
in this section would again assert itself
as a leading if not the leading industrial
force of the country We have long be-
heved that it would take two neW de
partures that would contribute to that
ccnsummation. First, as Secretary Will
son indicates, there will be the more
general method of small farms, individu-
ally owned, with intense workint' and di-
yerslfed crops. which will result in lands
now comparatively waste being brought
up. Second. while thes big single-crop
system will not be entirely abandoned, the
large single-crop tracts will be cultivated
Tor the most part by syndicates with the
latest improved hbor-saving machinery
IN some instances the syndlcates, through
managers, doing the work on their own
and in others renting to tenants,
whom they will carry" during a crop
failure season.
Both features, the small holding and
the syndicate. will call for more intelli-
gent labor. That means white labor, and
in turn revival of the love for farm
life and check upon the disposition of
young men to desert the country and
lock to the cities. 1t will also in time
mean the coming into the South of num-

Yesterday the ice man Of Johnson d
Johnson on his rounds was able to deliver
ice to two men out of the six who had
started the boycott. These stated that
they understood that Mr.. J. A. Jones OF
Jones & Powell, had also signed the peti-
tion and hence there was no choice as to
ice dealers
Mr.. A. r. D. Johnson, of johnson q
johnson, when interviewed in regard to
these matters, said that the report concern
ing the boycott was true. Il signed the
petition for a dispensary, said he, ''and
my partner, Mr.. John johnson will also
sign it. Our driver on the route among
the bars has told us that the bars had
quit because l had signed the petition"
Mr.. Jesse A. Jones waslseen by a News

Jones S Powell, but Mayor Powell was
not in. "Yes," said Mr.. Jones, II signed
the petition as soon as l saw it, for | am

Later in the day Mayor Powell was seen
in regard to the matter. He has signed
the petition for dispensary election.
Thus both firms dealing in ice have
signed the petition and this leaves the
boycott of the whis1ey men tied up in the
middle. Deal iwth one or deal with the
other, the men in the firm have signed.

Here is a story of boycott that fell flat
Rumor has had it for some time that
whiskey men in Raleigh had it in mind
to boycott parties who favored the ex-
clusion of the saloons.
These rumors weer held at first to be
groundless, a sit was supposed that the
campaign inaugurated here for dispensary
and against distilleries would be conduct
ed legitimately, that there would be no
attempts at intimidation, yilification OF
abuse.
But the rumor has had authenticity
given to it by the actions of whiskey men
in Raleigh this week
A day ago the firm of Johnson & John
son, ice dealers. found that the bar-rooms
1T had been serving with ice had quit
them, or rather that six out OF the seven
had done so. An interview with the driv-
er who supplied these liquor men revealed
the following:
On Tuesday on his rounds the whiskey
men declined to take ice from him. some
saying that they did this because Mr.. Ar
thur Johnson, of the firm of johnson G.
Johnson, had signed the petition for a dis.
pensary election, and that they were not
going to patronize firm that was trying
to break up their business. One dealer
returned the ice tickets he had on hand
and IN the seventh bar the clerk took ice.
saying that in the absence Of the proprie
tor he would make no change.

MURDER OF

VIGOROUSLY PROTESTS THE JUS.

GENERAL SYMPATHY.

Irwin Wallace. the mar who shot
McCammon in the Datils, is still in
jail in Socorro suffering with fever
and other ailments brought on by his
long and exhausting flight across the
country.
AT the solicitation Of Mrs. Mccain
mon, widow Of the ranchman whom
Wallace killed, the prisoner was first
placed down stairs on the rock floor
of the Jail. His physical condition.
however, grew worse so rapidly that
DR.. Duncan was hastily summoned
and said that the man was very like
" to contract pneumonia unless he
was kept from the damp. Medical
attention is now getting the unfortu-
nate man into a condition to stand a
preliminary trial.
Wallace's aged father wired from
Seneca, Missouri, Delay the trial
until | get there. The old man Is
expected to arrive this week.
Wallace protests his i%nnocene Of
intended crime and says he had to
shoot or be shot. He says he tried
to shoot low at the mar so as merely
to wound him when McCammon ran
to get his Winchester, as there was
no other way to stop him.
It will be remembered that in her
published statement, Mrs. McCammon
said that Wallace tried to kill her
child. How about that baby" was
asked Wallace.
Il did not see the baby at all" re-
piled Wallace. Z guess 1t was hid
in the kitchen or somewhere, for it
didn't show up"
Wallace seems to have the sympathy
Of the community. All he has to
show for his sixteen years OF hard
ship is a $4,000 mortgage. He turn
ed over his house and furniture. cor.
rails pastures, horses and cattle with
nothing down and four years to pay
