Immigration and Roads.

immigration is subject that seems
to be occupying great deal of atten-
ton in North Carolina at the present
time. The newspapers are discussing
the question vigorously in the hope of
reaching the best settlement of this
important problem for the State. The
matter grows more serious each year
and the complaints of farmers partic-
ularly and others who are largely de-
pendent upon hired labor lave in
duced our Senators in Congress and
our Governor to look carefully into the
matter, and they are recommending in
speeches and otherwise the importa-
ton of desirable immigrants from Eu-
rope.
One of the first things to be consid-
cred by thrifty farmer from the old
world will be the condition of the pub
lie roads in the neighborhood in which
he will settle. In France, Germany,
England and many parts of Italy the
roads are of such character that the
products of the farm and garden can
can be easily and protitably carried
to market every day in the year. 1t
may not be at all surprising, there
fore. If the sections of North Carolina
where the highways are already I'M
proved secure the larger number of
the better class of immigrants we are
now endeavOring to induce to come
into the State.
This fact should inspire some of our
backward counties to make a move
ment in this direction before the tide
of immigration has already begun to
flow in other and more progressive
channels.

Profit From Highways.

The land on both sides of the road
way can be planted with fruit trees of
various kinds. 1t will then become as
valuable as an inclosed orchard-in
fact 1t will be an orchard without need
of an Enclosure, for most States now
have laws which forbid allowing cattle
to run at large. This would not be an
experimental step. for ii has already
been demonstrated that it can be sat
isfactorily taken. In small way the
advantages of it have been shown in
one or two States of the Union. while
in foreign countries it has long since
become an established practice.
In France, for example great success
has attended it. 1t appears that the
movement was started by the Govern
ment, but so satisfactory did it prove
that the towns and communes soon
took it up on their own account. 1t is
now an important industry and is
yielding a revenue of nearly SGD 600.

used, to the exclusion of others. but
different kinds are chosen with regard
to their adaptation to the soil and eli.

Civilization is the work of the kicker,
averr the Chicago Chronicle, There
canE1t be too much intelligent and
honest kicking. The kicker is the mo-
tive bower of progress. If it had not
beef for him humanity would still be
living in caves. wearing skins and
going ont with stone Ratchet to kill
some thing for dinner The world
never has received an impetus from
the man who is satisfied with things
as they are. A Chicago philosopher
was once so profoundly impressed with
this truth that he declared that every
man who reaches the age of forty five
should be taken out and executed be-
cause. as he alleged, men of that Sge
become satisfied with the status quo
and thus act as a clog upon the wheels
of progress. This, of course, is an ex-
treme view Of the matter. but the prln-
ciplo which 1t embodies is correct.
Kicking is another name for dissatis-
faction with existing abuses-either ac-
tive or passive-and kicking is conse-
quently the agent of reform and pro-
gress

suggestion comes straight from the
