whlrELAsoR AT THE SOUTH,

In an artisle contributed to the Man.
ufacturer's Record on The Fu' ure of
Cotton. Mr., Martin Y. Calvin explcdes
the idea thss white men are untitled
for work IN the cotton field and that
the labor of cultivstng cotton must be
done by negroes, when the fact has
been clearly established that more than
one half of the cotton crop of the
south is produced by white men. Mr..
MARTA predies. as result of the in
@ ease of the Price of cotton, whioh
prom SEES TO remain at . large figure,
will pay the farmer q handsome profit
on his crop; that hundreds of young
white men in Georgia and other cotton
producing $ stes will gladly take mp
farming ~ life work, aud with i'm
proved labor-saving implements they
will prove themselves masters of the
situation.
Regarding ths notion tina, only ne
grcss can raise cotton in the south, he
shows that in north Georgia white la.
Dor, in spite of very short season,
with the sid of high grade ferul gers
makes higher ave- age per acre 'han
is made IN the regular cotton belt OF
the state where the negro labor il al
most exclusively employed
In di,eussing the question as to
whether the cotton acreage of 1901 5
will be increased, owing to the better
prices that prevail h9 contends that
there will be ne Inc, sase of acreage
and the crop of 1904 viii not exceed
10, 900, coo bales.
He explains his reason for reaching
this conclusion by saying that the far
mers cannot get the necessary labor,
aud cannot well rely upon it if OBJ.
tanned, hence they dare not pitch q
big crop no matter how alluring Is and
t6-oent Gotten may be.
Mr. Martin 10 confident that white
labor, gradually at first, and then rap
idly, will displacs negr1 labor in the
sotton and grain fields of the south
Els calls attention to the fact that al
the present time he negroes are in
disposed to work In the fields, not be
cause the wages are unsatisfactory o.
are not promptly paid, but for the rea
son that the younger element are shift
lie and lazy and to large extent de
termined to abandon werk entirely
This element in his opinion is in
state of transition, and in the cours
of few years the bulk of negroes vii
have left the south.
It is to b. hoped that this is correc
prophecy, for there is nothing tina
would benefit this section more thai
the displacement of negro labor b,
white laber in its agricultural indus
try. 1t is dlficuls to imagine hoy
enormously prosperous the soutl
would be were there thousands of IN
telligent white farmers laboring witt
their own hands in the fields of tn
cotton raising states, and the result
of their labor would be such a devel
opment in mining and manufacturin!
that would not be exquaIled anywher
in the world

PEABODY MAY STAY.
Republican Managers Have Scheme
for General Assembly to Enact

Denver, Col, Dec. 26. - II the if
teenth general assembly of Colorado,
which is to meet on Wednesday, Jam
uary 4, shall effectuate the plans for
mulated by the managers of the re-
publican post-election campaign, Gov
ernor James H. Peabody, may serve as
chief executive of this state for two
years more, despite the fact that Alva
Adams still has nearly 10000 plurality
since the votes of five Denver precincts
were thrown out bodily by order of the
supreme court in consequence of frauds
exposed in contempt proceedings a.
gainst election officials.
There will be a republican majority
of thirty or more in the general assem-
bly,, which will canvass the vote for
state officers. 1t is proposed to have
the general assembly appoint a special
contest committee of nine to twelve
members, to which will be submitted
the evidence of wholesale election
frauds in Denver and possibly some
other counties, which evidence the re-
publican committees have been collect
ing ever since the election.
The republican managers maintain
that with the fraudulent votes of Den
yer eliminated Governor Peabody will
have at least 1000 plurality in this
county and 1000 in the state. These
politicians propose that about 1900
democratic precincts shall be thrown
out on the ground Of alleged frauds and
that the vote of the republican pre-
cincts shall be counted. They assert
that the supreme court has established
precedent for such procedure.
This radical program is opposed by
some conservative republican leaders.
and until the legislature meets and
takes action it can not be known GER
tainly whether Peabody or Adams will
be governor for the next two years. The
democratic leaders are preparing TO
contest vigorously the attempt to re-
seat Peabody. The Liberty League, a
