HOW TO GET IAIMIGRANTs.
signor n. Crispini Has a Practical
Plan That Should Receive Con-
sideration.

Signor II. Crispni, who came tx
Sumter several months ago to make
his home, and, having observed tha
there was a great need for frs
class restaurant in the city, recent!
opened the New York Restaurant, has
become greatly interested in the i'm
migration question.
Signor Crispini, who is a naturaliz'
ed American citizen, came to the
country thirty years ago and has
travelled extensively, there being few
towns of any size in the entire coun
try that he has net visited while {
member of Gilmore's, Solsa's or some
other famous band, he having beer
connected with almost all of the high
class musical organizations that have
been before the public within the past
thirty years. Signor Crispini is most
favoraly impressed with this section
of the country, the climate more near.
Iy approaching that of his native prov.
ince in Italy than any other be has
found. lie believes that this county
can be made the garden spot or tn
South by filling up the idle land with
the skilled gardeners and fruit grow.
ers of Italy, who are seeking homes in
this country.
Signor Crispini says that his native
province is the richest and most pros
porous in all of Italy, yet there are
thousands of young men emigrating
annually, and that by e. little effort
they could be brought to South Caro-
lima. These people are as rule we'll
educated, industrious and frugal.
They are skilled in the culture OF
the vine and in wine making, in silk
culture, gardening and fruit culture.
They are quiet, peaceable and honest
and are altogether different from the
Objectionable and undesirable class OF
Italians who have given the whole
race bad name in this country by
reason OF their afiliation with the
Malta and other lawless and criminal
secret organizations.
Signor Crispini says that by writing
to friends and relatives in his native
town be could induce few to come
to Sumter, but that il the land own
ers who wish to secure desirable ten
ants and laborers or who prefer to cut
up their lands into small tracts and
sell1oD easy terms, will organize an i'm
migration association and put the
matter in a business shape so that be
could promise his countrymen some.
thing:de6nite, he could induce hundreds
of the best class of agricultural SITS
and artisans to come to Sumter coun
ty. These people will be able to pay
their own passage to America and all
they will demand is the assurance
that they will be able to obtain en-
or be given the opportunity
to either rent or purchase land for a
home upon their arrival.
Slgnor Crispini would, if thought
advisable make, trip to Italy, for the
purpose of organizing COLONY for
Sumter county, il en- association
should reformed; and so confident is
be that his countrymen would succeed
here that he says without hesitation
that the first colony would be the
forerunner of as many others as could
be provided with land.

termined to force Paul to abdicate,
and kill him if necessary. He fought
desperately, was overpoweredeand slow

This crime ends the list of family
assassinations. Henceforth the MUIR
GERS are committed by the people
struggling to throw off the yoke of
despotism. Obnoxious governors,
hated ministers and cruel minor Off
Gals have been put to death by the

Gear, Alexander II has fallen under
the anarchists hand although manv
attempts have been made to kill each
ruler during the past century.
Nor has any grand duke been killed

he might take the throne as lawful

hin, orders what to do in such an
event. He shot poor little ivaa. who
had been prisoner twelve years, and
thnt was the end Of another Gear.
.9hese two crimes of Catharine are
but fraction of those she committed.
There was an illegitimate daughter of
Elizabeth living quietly at Pisa,
Its,ly. Catharine hadher abducted and
taken to Cronstadt. That was the
last seen of this imperial princess.
The sins Of one generation often are
visited on the next. The bloody
Catharine had SON who, after his
mothers slong reiRon, came to the
throne in 1894. The simplest ex-
PLANTATION of this Cars life and end
is that he was maniac.
He knouted his subjects into obey
ing his slightest caprice.
Once he wrote paragraph for the
official gazette declaring that quarrels
between States should be settled by
personal encounters between their
sovereigns, with prime ministers as
seconds. @ =@
He hated the spirit of freedom so
much he forbade the use of the word
ssliberty," and ordered the Academy
of Science to omit the word "revolu
tion'' when speaking of the courses
of the heavenly bodies in astronomy.
He began treating his wife and son
with worse severity than was inflicted
by that mad King Of Prussia on his
SON. Frederick the Great.
For FIVE years the couriers in the
palace and the officers of the army en-
drred this Czal. Then they plotted
his removal. The reigning family
of Russia has endeavored to deny the
stain of completely in the nineteenth
century assassination, but history re-
cords the cold facts of the part Alex
ander, son of Paul. played in this
crime. No one accuses Alexander OF
direct participation in the murder,
but he was privy to the plot to de-
throne his father.

WANTS 4 new PARTY.
Spartanburg Journal Advocates
Republication in This State

South Carolina needs a live, mill
tant, aggressive Republican party.
All that is necessary to bring it into
existence is spirit of tolerance
among our people. This is rapidly
growing and developing and the day
is not far distant in spite Of the race
issue when the white people of South
Carolina and other Southern States
will divide OH economic and doctrinal
questions, and We will have two polit.
ical parties to balance each other and
keep the governing party up to the
highest standard of efficiency.
The increasing spirit of liberality
shown toward the Republican party
by all classes of our citizens in recent
months and the following developed by
President Roosevelt in South Carolina
shows the broadening spirit of our
people. All who entertain these feel
ings are not becoming Repu blicans
and many are not going to be, but
their tone and spirit are an indication
of the change that is coming over a
people who have heretofore been
somewhat intolerant toward the op-
posite political party.
There is no getting around the fact
that Republican sentiment is growing
in South Carolina. No amount of
ranting from the reactionaries or IT.
reconcilables, no amount of fits
thrown by the old crowd who with all
sincerity perhaps believe that all the
virtue, patriotism and honesty in the
country have been perpetually con-
signed to the custody Of che Demo
cratic party, can prevent it or over
come it. Our people have grown more
practical and sensible and the Repub.
lican party has grown more national
and more lioeral towards the institu-
tions. habits and customs of the
South. The two are coming togeth-
er.
With two political parties in South
Carolina we will have a more careful
and efficient State government. We
will have a better class of men nom
mated for Office, for with be knowl
edge that a weak or Objectionable
nominee would be defeated at the
polls by better man from the other
party no party would dare to put up
a vulnerable candidate. We would
have nc Irregularities in an impe1-
tant State Office with the reelection
of the incumbent without opposition
Immediately after the revelation Of
the discrepancies. We would have no
corruption in the. dispensary, if we
had a dispensary, and in every way
our government would be administer
ed with greater efficiency and ca
pacity.
In Che view of the people of the
nation and of the world South Caro-
lima would be infinitely elevated by
the establishment Of a Republican
form of government in full operation
with general participation in elections
of all qualified voters and with live
ly knowledge and understanding of all
national questions and issues. The
first Southern State that brings about
this reform and improvement in its
politics will be the best advertised
State of all the South aud will reap
great rewards in material benefits and
in educational and broadening dev

that the dairy products and cheese

The section Of Italy from which Mr..
Crispini would bring his countrymen
furnishes moral, intelligent and
industrious class of people, not of
the 6 Mafias class, but desirable ex-
perienced agriculturjsts and stock

Mt. Crispini says. that this climate
Is adaptable to the production OF al.
moss ali Of the fruits, vegetables and
grapes for which California is noted.
There are some exceptions OF course,
like lemons, oranges, etc, but with
experienced men to plant and cuit1-
syate the various products above mem
toned, and with some assistance and
far treatment, hundreds OF acres of
land now lying waste, or very poorly
cultivated, by negroes for cotton,
could be transformed into splendid.
