WHY MARCH 4th IS
INAUGURATION DAY.
The Principal Reason for the SeIeC.
tlOn of This Date Was the
Curious Fact That II Sci.
dom Falls on Sunday.

There have been many objections
raised to the date upon which the
Presidents of the United States arc
inaugurated, chief among them be-
ing the usually inclement weather
wnncn ProSnNA~ ss>rlS IN the
spring.
The first President Harrison con.
tractcd the cold which caused his
death, soon after he assumed office,
at the ceremonies attending his in
auguration; and anxiety is always
expressed lest the UNHAPPY incident
be repeated. There was reason
for choosing that date, however,
which very few persons have ever
heard of.
When the day was fixed upon
the 4th of March, it was because
that date seldom occurred on Sun
day. But three times during our
history has the Inauguration day
faUcsRe ca that,sdfsNn naThf 4rstaMes
Monroe, the fifth president, March
4, 1921; the second was when
Zachary Taylor was made presi-
dent, March 4, 1S49; the third was
the Inauguration of Rutherford B.
Hayes on March 4, 1877.
This will happen three times
during each century, or one year
after every seven leap years. Ex-
cept when passing from one century
to another, there is a slight varia-
ton. as will be observed from the
following dates of the past and
future inagurations, of the first two
centuries of the republic:

The South'S Imperial Staple.

(From Manufacturers Record, Sep
tember 13 1906
Over 50, ,OOO,OOO,OOO is invested
in cotton mills in Europe and
America dependent upon the South
for their raw material. 1t is esti-
mated that 100000 people in
Great Britain alone live on tt e
c,tton industry of that country.
The balance of trade in favor of the
United States depends on our cotton
exports which now annually reach
100000 or more than the
worlds gold production. Of this
royal crop, imperial in magnitude
and in domination of the worlds
financial and manufacturing inter
ests, the South holds a world
monopoly. Its ability to increase
cotton production to meet the
worlds growing needs, and its
ability to develop cotton manufac-
turing commensurate with its
monopoly of cotton production, are
limited only by its labor supply.
Economic forces will of necessity
bring about a great increase in pop
ulation and thus prepare the way
for vast expansion in manufac-
turing and in production as the
price and demand may justify.
The South produces 80 per cent. of
the cotton for the 100000
spindles in the world, but has less
than 1O,OO0,OOO spindles itself.
Think of the limitless possibilities
of expansion in this industry alone
when you are studying the future
of the South.

The experiment is one in which
the immigration officials are greatly
interested and although the immi
grants will be forced to undergo the
same rigid scrutiny ut the Southern
port as is required at Ellis Island
the project will be helped along in
other respects as much as possible
Arrangements for bringing the Bel
glan immigrants South were made
by a special immigration commits
sioner of South Carolina. The
plan is to start a regular service
from Europe to Charleston, the
ships bringing immigrants there
and returning with cargo of
fne SouIff CarOrIia OiiicIals are
SO much interested in the plan that
it is understood they are willing to
pay the transportation expenses of
the first shipload of immigrants out
of the State fund. This can be
done without violation of law, pro-
vidcd there is no conflict with the
contract labor provisions, and it
can be proved that the agent has
not induced the aliens to come by Il
promise of employment through
advertisements printed. and pub
lished in any foreign country"
Commissioner General Sargent
has promised the South Carolina
commissioner to he in Charleston
it possible when the ship arrives.
Meanwhile a special force of in
spectors will be detailed to examine
the immigrants brought in on the
steamer. Commissioner General
Sargent is in favor of distributing
immigrants throughout the country
to relieve the congestion ut New
York and o,her immigration CEN
tres, and has frequently recon-
mendcd in his annual reports that
measures be taken to this end.

Farmers are like some politicians,
