full handling of this case reflects great
credit upon the local staff and proves
the inestimable worth of an institu-
ton of this nature.
Major John r. London Is very sick.
He visited specialists at New York a
few days ago and returned much de-
pressed because they gave him no hope
of recovery. Major London has long
been a resident Of the city, and has
always occupied very prominent
place in its affairs, socially and COM
mercially, and his presence will be
very much missed, as he Is universal
ly respected in the community.

The drouth is getting to be quite
serious, and unless rain comes soon,
the farmers will certainly have a
gloomy prospect in view. Cotton on
the sandy lands seems to be doing
very nicely: but upon the red lands 1t
Is, however, doing no good. A drive

Of the almost unprecedented charac-
ter of the dry season. The strawberry
crop is practically failure.

AS TO ITALIAN LABoR.-The News
and Courier is of the opinion that our
immigration law is not mandatory
as to the nationality Of the immigrants
the commissioner shall endeavor to
bring into the state, but that 1t is sim
ply advisory. This seems to be the
correct view, and it certainly is the
common sense view of the matter, for
it cannot be believed that the legisla-
tors intended that any desirable class
should be debarred, no matter what
might be the nationality. Recently the
commissioner received a request that
he induce a colony of Italian farm Ia
borers to come to the state, but that
officer held that he could not act, be-
cause the law provided that only i'm
migrants from England, Ireland, Scot
land or from Northern Europe should
be sought for. The Italian farm la
borer is being used to Il large extent
in some states to supplant the negro.
and in many respects he is the only
white labOrer that can compete with
the negro. These laborers are asserted
TO be thrifty men and good, peaceable
citizens, and if that Is true, there is
no good reason why the commissioner
should be prohibited from bringing
them in. Negro labor is getting scare
er every year and the supply avail
able from Italy seems to be abundant
and can be easily obtained, from all
reports.-The Columbia Record.

NOTE AND COMM lent.

The reporter is assured that there Is
still more or less moonshining in the
northwestern part Of the county. The
moonshiners are provided with plants
that are easily portable and they do
not remain long in one place.
The drought that has been prevail
ing throughout most of York county
during the past few weeks Is becoming
distressing in its effects. The farm
crops are in need Of rain and gardens
generally are suffering. A good rain
about now would be very acceptable.
II is claimed by railroad men that
the trade of the Southern between
Blacksburg and Camden Is now In bet
ter condition than at any time since
the building of the road. This IS no
doubt true, as an immense amount or
work has been done on this division
during the past year.
Cattle raising holds out a greater
promise for profit in this country just
now than at any time since the war.
Beef cattle are worth from twice TO
three times what they were few
years ago and there is no trouble
about finding a market at any time.
People with a knowledge of the busi-
ness who have money to invest, Will
do we'll to investigate the situation.
Speaking of butter making the other
day, Mr.. r. G. Ratchford stated a fact
that will be of rather surprising inter-
est to large number Of domestic
butter makers. He said that contrary

ORGANIC UNION.
Southern Presbyterians Not Eager to
Join Their Northern Brethren.

Southern Presbyterians Not Eager to
Join Their Northern Brethren.
At the afternoon session Of the
Southern Presbyterian general assem-
bly, in session at Mobile, Ala, last
Wednesday, the special order was on
the question Of the resolution submit
ted by the committee on bills and over
lures for the appointment Of a spe-
cial committee to consider the tele-
graphic message from the Northern
assembly in session at Buffalo, and
this interjected into the proceedings a
discussion Of the whole question Of
closer relations, the debate being the
warmest that has yet characterized the
session of the body. There was con-
siderable excitement shown by some
of the speakers, and statements made
by some Of them were characterized as
untrue by others, and afterward modi-
fled, with mutual explanations.
Among the principal debaters this
afternoon were the Rev. J. S. Lyons, Of
Louisville, KY, who may be termed the
leader of the forces favorable to.
closer relation with the northern
church; the Rev. w. T. Palmer Of New
Orleans. the leader of the opposition,
and the Rev. w. M. Morrison of Lex
ington, Va, in favor Of closer rela-
tions.
The Rev. J. w. Flynn Of Columbia,
said in substance:
There are conditions that make 1t
the belief of some commissioners that
committee on conference should not
be appointed at this time. Prominent
among them are the negotiations now
in progress between the Cumberland
church, and the Presbyterian church
in the United States of America. 1t
was unwise to take a step looking to
union with the Northern church, when
that church seems about to assimilate
to itself or to assimilate itself to a body
and a creed so fully and notoriously
Arminian as the Cumberland.
1T is probable that this union be-
tween the northern and the Cumber-
land church will be consummated,
hence the more need Of cautious wait
ing upon our part.
1--WE may call the ultimate purpose
by what name we choose, but the pur-
pose is logically organic union"
The Rev. J. M. Wells of Wilmington,
N. c.. said:
1.-The appointment Of the committee
means hurtful agitation the coming
year. This is an inopportune time.
The churches have been drawing close
together in heart; why hasten this
work and drive them further apart In
heart by trying to yoke them together
in body? The Northern church is con-
sidering union with the Cumberland
church. Let us wait until they settle
their question. Why should we enter
the negotiations? Why interfere with
their plans?
Union up here is hanging in the
balance, if they will let us see whether
the United Church wants US. If they
do not unite, then it is time to consider
this.
But it Is an open secret that some
of the advocates Of this committee
want it appointed to save the Northern
church from union with the Cumber-
land church. It Is trembling In the
balance up yonder at Buffalo. They
think that a telegram from here hint
| ing that we would take the place of
the Cumberland would prevent that
union."

THE SUMMER SCHOOL.

The York County Summer school
for teachers will be held in Yorkville
this year as usual. and by reference
to the advertisement in another COL
umn 1t will be noted that 1t will be
opened on Wednesday, June 8,
The notice the teachers are getting
Is short: but that is not the fault Of
Superintendent of Education Carroll,
or Of the county board Of education.
The responsibility lies with Mr.. Mar
tin the state superintendent Of educa-
ton. It is only within the past few
days that Mr.. Martin has agreed to
permit a county summer school In
York.
The trouble seems to have been a
fear on the part of Mr.. Martin that
a summer school for this county would
interfere with the attendance on the
state school at Winthrop, and this Is
believed to be the reason why there
has been so much delay in arriving
at a definite decision.
However. while the state superinten-
dent has been undecided, the county
superintendent and board have been
quite determined. They know it to be
fact that their schools heretofore
have been among the best that have
been held in the state. and they have
not been willing to deprive the teach
ers Of the advantages offered.
Notwithstanding the late date at
which an understanding has been
reached and the short notice to the
teachers, a good attendance seems to
be already assured. A large number
Of teachers have indicated their desire
for the holding Of the school as usual
and have promised to attend.
The understanding Is that Prof. j.
w. Thomson will be principal and
Prof Hand Of Chester will be his as
sistant. There has been no definite
selection Of a conductor Of the primary
department; but the county board will
see to it that it gets the best talent
to be had.

SECURING IMMIGRANTS.

Mr.. M. v. Richards, land and indus
trial agent Of the Southern railway has
sent THE ENQUIRER the following from
Washington, under date Of May 20:
You are undoubtedly deeply inter-
ested IN the matter Of building up your
community and in increasing both the
agricultural and industrial output
You are aware that the Southern rail-
way Is also interested In such work
as will add to the growth and pros
perity Of each community reached by
It's system. One Of the best ways to
promote this work Is 70 secure as large
an immigration movement as possible
You will agree with me that there are
few sections of the South which do
not need immigration and none which
can not offer advantages and opportu-
mites to the homeseeker in the way
Of low-priced, productive farming
lands. immigration Is to be secured
through proper advertising and effort
The land and industrial department OF
the Southern railway takes every op-
portunity to advertise the advantages
of the territory 1t reaches and also OF
the whole south. 1t desires >to CO.
operate with you and your people ir
all efforts which can be put forth te
lnQuce SOOQ cldSS OIL FARMERS tO oC-
cupy your available lands.
One Of the best methods Of secur-
ing immigration is through people from
other sections and other counties who
have already settled in the south
and have learned of the advantages
and opportunities offered in theil
communities. There Is scarcely 6
county in the whole south in which are
not located at least a few farmers ant
business men from some sections Of
the northern states. Naturally al
these persons have many friends ant
acquaintances in their old homes wht
are interested in knowing something
about the communities In which they
have located and who would be glad tc
receive information concerning these
sections. If such persons located II
your community will furnish US will
the names Of the parties in their ole
homes we shall be glad to send then
information about your section. W.
should like to have as large list a!
possible. We stand ready to send ou
any amount of printed matter neces
sary to reach the friends and acquain'
tances Of the settlers from this ant
from other countries.
These names will help US In oul
work and through them we will bt
able to help you and your community
