About immigration.

That was great speech that Gov
ernor Glenn, of North Carolina, made
before the Southern Industrial Con-
gress in Washington last week, and
its greatness lies in it's timeliness and
It's truth. If there was any wav to
get at the exact facts, it would be
found that the South has suffered
more from the Misrepresentation of
western immigration agents than
from any other one cause. These
agents know, especially where they
have made any effort to learn, that
the Southern States hold out great
er inducements to Industrious white
home-seekers than does any other
section of the world; but it has never
been to the interest of the agents to
work for this section, because the un-
settled West has held out greater
inducements to them. Left to fol-
low the inclinations of their own
Judgment, immigrants would have
naturally focked in this direction,
and to prevent such tide, the agents
have made it their business to invent
all kinds of misrepresentation. So
potent has been the influence of
these agent in fact that many pros
porous Southerner has been induced
to move into a section which, on his
arrival, he found did not begin to
compare with the country he had
left. But that is not the worst of
it. The misrepresentation that have
been in progress for generations
past, are still actively alive. and con-
tinue to do almost as much harm as
ever. Northern and Western people
who come down South to see for
themselves, generally find that which
induces them to go back after their
families. and when the South finally
becomes sufficiently interested in this
immigration question to induce her
to see that the world is made ac-
ouainted with the real truth as to
her condition and the advantages she
has to offer, she will find it difficult
to take care of all who will desire
to establish homes within her limits.

Rev. P. r. Law Inquiries About Texas
Cotton.

We have made many INQUIRIES
about the cotton crop since we reach
ed Texas, and the invariable reply
we have so far gotten is that the
acreage has rather been increased
than decreased. There are reasons
why necessity was laid upon the cot
ton planters over much of the State
to increase rather than decrease their
crops. This is notably true of the
part of the State-the western part
where the cotton area is being exend-
ed rapidly. In parts of the State
there has been some reduction. The
farmers in these parts have substi-
tuted other crops in a measure. They
are resorting to such diversifcation
as the soil and climate will permit.
But the latitude is not so unlimited
as with us. The heavy, prolonged
rains have made all field crops very
late.-Rev. P. R. Law, in Lumber
ton Robesonian.

The Farmers Educational and Co-ope-

tho strongest farmers organization
a today and is forging ahead at a
Tarv rapid rate, as Indian Territory
ond Oklahoma, Louisiana and Ar
ionsas besides Texas has organized
and Georgia will organize a State
Union on the oath of this month. A
National Union will be organized
come time this year. Alabama and
Mississippi will very probably be or
oonized in time to take part in form
inc the National Union, and the far
Iners of North Carolina will have to
cet 4 move on themselves if they
wish to get in line in the best farm
ers' organization that has been pre-
sented to them, and which is doing
for its members what the Grange and
Alliance was intended to do, but
failed, owing to the divergent inter
ests of their members. Farmers have
learned by experience and will now
profit by it and apply the principles
used in other organizations and
adart them to the farmers interests
and the upbuilding of their calling
rs all other avocations are doing in
their organizations for their mutual
and class interests.
VIII the North Carolina farmers
wait for the manufacturer lawyer,
banker. and merchant, to look after
his interest, or does he realize that
the farmers have interests that are
mutual and not particularly to the
immediate interests of the other
classes!
Is the North Carolina farmer less
intelligent and less able to manage
his organization than are the farm
ers of the other Southern States?
Or is he led more by the politician
or the other classes so as to keep
him from using the strength of a
united organization of producers to
advance his own interests and that
of his neighbor's and their families
whose interests are Identical? Will
he listen more to those who have
other interests than he will to those
whose interests are identical with
his own and farm for living? Does
he realize that the farmers of the
other Southern States have heard all
the croakings and silly statements of
those who wish to lead the farmers
and who particularly to keep him
from organizing on the lines of mu-
tual interests and wish to lead him
as their own interest dictaes and
keep him as a prey of the speculator
and skinner who have their organi-
zations? But the farmer! Oh he
must not organize on the same lines
oh. no! And what are the North
Carolina farmers going to do? Will
they chose an organization of their
own class, or listen to the siren song
OF the classes who live off the profits
thev make in dividing up the prod
Tcts raised by the farmers? Will they
heed the call of two hundred and
6tty thousand farmers to get into
the Farmers Union, or will they
stand aside, one in a hill. and be a
prey to different spectators who
laugh and sneer at them behind their
backs and give them all kinds of ad-
vice against organizing-unless the
Speculator can get in as a friend to
guide him Gas the spider guides the
uy)! VIII the farmers take hold

Rome, March 1.-THE pope has re-
Gently expressed his firm determine
ton to spend a few weeks next sum-
mer at the papal villa at Castle Gran
dolfo, and the general opinion here
is that Plus X, is independent enough
of tradition to carry out his point.
II he should insist, the whole ques-
ton of temporal power, which for
many years shaped the line of policy
followed by the vatican authorities to-
ward the Italian government, would
Immediately find practical solution
by demonstrating that, even with
Rome in the possession of the Ital-
ian government, the pope is free to
come out of the vatican without any
loss of dignity or prestige.
Naturally there would be much OPP
position to the Pope taking such an
important step. The more conserva-
tive cardinals certainly would pro-
test against such an extraordinary
proceeding on the part of the pope,
but those who know Plus X. well and
have been able to take notice of the
increasing independence of his char
acter, entertain no doubt that if the
pope makes up his mind to throw
some traditions TO the winds he will
certainly carry out his plans indepen-
dent of what his close advisers may
suggest.
Soon after his election the pope
spent a large sum in repairing the
papal villa i'm the Albano hills, and
It was repeatedly asserted then that
ii was Plus KS intention to use the
villa several weeks during the sum-
mer. Such a plan could not be car
ried out last year, and the villa was
turned over to the personal use of
the cardinal secretary of state, who
spent August and September there,
coming to Rome once a week for a
few hours conference with the pope.
There is no doubt that the extern
sve repairs made in the summer
abode of former popes are not JUS
titled by the permanency there of a
solitary cardinal for few weeks
and that Plus KS intentions are to
transfer the whole papal court there
during the summer months.
Il has been noticed that Plus X
has never given up his yearning for
more liberty and that the increasing
pallor of his countenance, which has
now lost the ruddiness of former
years. is by him attributed to his long
confinement within the walls of the
vatican. No one will therefore be

of the county judge of said county,
upon report made to him, by the
sheriff of said county, to order the

which said fence, or any part of it,
may be located, or any deputy sheriff
of the county, to remove and place
in safe keeping all loose wire in con-
