AS TO immigration.
Senator Cole. l.. Blease offered the
following resolution:
"ResolvcI, That we request the
immigrant agent Of South Carolina
and those interesting themselves in
securing immi grants for this county
to be careful in the selection of whom
they locate here in our county, as we
do not wish all classes of people who
are looking to be located and who
have some money with which to pur-
chase real estate.
Resolved, further, That we beg Of
our land owners to be careful as TO
whom they sell their real estate to,
so that our country may not fall into
the hands Of race and color that
may be injurious to our own home
people,
Mr.. Blease said the county wanted
desirable class of immigrants but,
Judging from the appearance, it did
not want immigrants of the kind
which had lately settled in the county,
referring to some Russians who had
lately come to Newbcrry county, ho
said.
He thought it bchoovcd the convcn-
tion to ask those interested in immi-
grafton to see to it that they bring
to our county not an undesirable
class of people.
Mr.. w. H. Wallace endorsed all
that had been said, and hoped the res
olution would be passed unanimously.
Newberry county wanted only desir-
able immigrants, he said
Mr.. J. II. Chappell had no objection
to the negro, but did object to some
Of the people he had seen around
Newberry lately.
Mr.. J. G.. Nccl wanted to know
what the convention had to do with
people coming here. He knew igno-
rant and poor people who had come
years ago who were now an honor to
the county. Mr.. Neel spoke at some
length along this line.
Mr.. NJ. A. Carlisle was very much
interested in the immigration move
mcnt. There were now some six or
seven people in the community who
wanted to buy land. Hc had assur-
ances from men who knew that they
represented an oppressed class in
Russia who came here to be free and
