THE LABOR QUESTION.

Ii has long been a vexed question
IA TO how the labor problem in the
South could be satisfactorily settled
There is no question that the supply
OF competsht labor in this section
Tails ia1thort of the demand This
Scarcity OF labor is due to several
%uses, notably, the increasing incl
= ficiency of the negro laborer, upon
whom the South has heretofore re-
led, in large measure, and 30 the
purchase by the whites, who form
erly supplemented the demand, OF
small tracts of land, which they till
for themselves without the assist
ance OF hired help.
Importation OF immigrant labor
has been persistently suggested rs q
solution OF the difficulty, but up It.
the present time, nothing very detn-
ite has been accomplished in this line,
so far as the South is concerDed-due,
in part, to a lack OF systematic e.
fort, and a reasonable fear that i'm
ported laborers may prove a greater
menace than help to existing condi-
tions.
Foreigners who have come 80 this
country have not always proven de-
sirable citizens, or competent labor
ers, but II this course is the only one
left open to Southern people, with a
few additional safeguards, in the
way of investigation into the habits
and abilities of prospective immi-
grants TO the South, We have heard
OF no more efficient way OF securing
the desired immigration than shat
now proposed by Commissioner-Gen-
ersl-Sargens Of the Bureau OF lmmi-
grafton. Mr.. Sargent has drafted
bill, which will be introduced in both
Houses OF Congress, which provides
for the establishment of bureau OF
information and display for she ben
eft OF immigrants, upon their arrival
in this country, to aid them in deter
mining where they shall settle. The
bureau shall furnish free oral and
printed information as TO resources,
products and physical characters
tics OF each State and Territory,
showing the various routes by which
each may be reached, she OppOrtuni-
ties for employment in skilled and
unskilled labor, and the rate OF
wages paid and the cost OF living iii
each.
The bill further provides that any
State or Territory may maintain, at
its own expense, agents at Ellis Is
land, under such regulations as the
commissioner shall think necessary,
hand for the erection of building, by |
prize Government, at this point, TO be
We'd for this purpose.
k. Td'' he plan is, at least, worth a trial,
)nd Fit not only may result in supply
w vhe much-needed demand in the
RIl for labor, but will prevent the
.estion in the big cities Of vast
Wnbers OF immigrants, where they |
capt to become undesirable citi-
GRns and a menace 30 good govern

tUL wfLLAkD's CANDIDACY.

Lieut. Gov. Willard, who has Iorfn-
ally announced his candidacy Tor
Governor OF Virginia, enunciated a
platform which is in line with his
past efforts for the advancement OF
the interests OF his State, and no one
can doubt that il elected Governor,
his best efforts will he used TO put
into operation such improvements
AS he suggests.
MIR. Willard served the people oil
his native county faithfully and well
in the Virginia House of Delegates
for several terms, and for nearly -four
years he has been Lieutenant-GOver'
nor ofthe State, and, as such, presid'
ing officer of the Senate. In every
capacity in which he has been EN-
trusted with public service he has
been interchangeable, faithful and eff
Gent in his endeavOr to promote the
welfare OF his constituents and hi
State; 80, that while he is young il
years. he is ripe in experience.
The people OF the Old Dominion
could, therefore, safely entrust the
highest office in their gift to his keep
log, with the confident expectation
that ne would measure mp to that
high standard which they have al
ways required of their Chief Execu'
tive, and with the knowledge that he
would devote TO the duties OF the OF
flee untiring effort and faithful, hon
est service.
