Mary Leave State.
Since the adoption of the constitutional
amendment in 1900, which clsfranchised
the negroes. the men and women of this
race have been leaving the State as fast
as they coaId get away. and there is
constant increase in the demand for la
Dor on the farms and for servants for
domestic purposes, though wages have
doubled in the past six years Another
reason for the decrease of labor on the
farms Il TO be found in the increase in
the number OF cotton mills, which draw
their labor from the farms. The farm
ers are of the opinion that by adopting

tuition they will save money and increase

Individual members of the committee

In General Wood S case he would have

1t is thought, however. that the Senate
will contenl itself with going on record
in the matter, to prevent similar Incl

question of salaries drop. 1t is possible,
however, that il may be decided to
adopt special legislation legalizing the
action of the disbursing officers in those
cases.

prepared by Senator Spooner and con-
Cured in by other members will prob
ably not be made public until next Mon
