4 LESSON FOR THE SOUTH.


The active efforts being made In
Virginia, South Carolina, Kentucky
and other states to secure a large
number Of desirable immigrants to
help develop industrial and agricul-
tural resources ought to suggest to
the people of the South the great i'm
portance Of suppresslng lynehings or
race disturbances. OF course. there
is moral side Of this subject which
is most far-reaching. But dealing
with the matter from a purely mate
rial point Of view, there is an impress
sive lesson for the South to learn.
To-day the South is making efforts
to bring more capital into its. indus
trial regions. This is more difficult
than it would otherwise be by reason
of the sensational reports published
in northern and western newspapers
ABOUT race disturbances and mob VIC.
lence in the South. These reports
are very largely exaggerated. as
rule, and frequently magnified until
they are ridiculous in the eyes 81
those who are on the scenes and
know the facts 1t is often true that
street fight between a white man
and negro, and in which there is
not suggestion Of riot, is pub
nshed in northern newspaw and
especially those that delight to mis-
represent southern conditionss as
terrISse race war The purposes Of
such publications are often purely
selfish. Not a few northern and
western newspapers with more eye
to business advantage than to moral
character have pursued this method
to stop the flow of capital from the
north and west to the south, under
taking to brighten off capitalists who
fear the effect OF race disturbances
and mob violence upon business con.
ditions.
To be sure, such injustice Is 70 ne
depiored and eensured. Still the IN.
fairness and sinister motives do exist,
and it is a condition not a theory
that the Southern people must face IN
the development Of their resources.
What, therefore, Is the lesson to be
learned from these conditions? That
the southern people Should come to.

ment against all administrations Of

offered northern and western news

to misrepresent, denounce and injure
the south in its efforts to secure ont
side capital

The Essentials of Civilization.

We are told in ancient fable that
Anteus was invincible while his feet
stood upon the sustaining earth. So
nations and peoples are invincible so
long as they live close to nature and
cherish agriculture. No nation ever
flourished where agriculture languish-
ed, and no nation ever languished
where agriculture fourished. And
yet the farmer is and always has
been shorn at every turn and is now
more than ever, made the victim OF
non producers who exploit his sub
stance and its value at his expense
and to his injury. Light, heat, food,
clothing. shelter-these are the es-
sentials OF civilized life and yet the
farmer can not purchase an article
which enters into any OF these in
free and open market.
He is compelled to purchase them
all except such as he himself may
produce in market which is COM
pietely monopolized and in which
prices are determined not by the laws
OF trade. but by the arbitrary will of
a limited number of men. On the
other hand. when he takes his own
products to the market, he is con-
fronted by combinations of pur-
chasers and is prevented from access
to free and open market in which
to sell his products by combinations
who having driven out all competit-
he may offer his products. The in
terstate commerce commission is
just now going thru the farce of in
vestigating the elevator trust but
the whole thing is wind pudding
which will amount to naught.
We are told that prices are deter
mined by the law OF supply and de-
mand, and this is true but allow one
man to control the supply or the de-
mand and he will control the price
Both supply and demand are con-
troled at present by the combina-
tons which shear the farmer of his
profits and put up the price enor-
mously to all consumers. They cor
ner and control the supply OF finished
products which are to be placed on
the market for the general public and
thereby control the price arbitrarily.
They limit the number of pur-
clasers and combine the limited num-
Der and thus they limit the demand
for the farmers products by limit
ing the number OF purchasers.
Both producers and consumers suf-
fer from the actions of these trusts
and combinations which rule the
markets. The farmer is a constant
and great sufferer at their hands.
The transportation companies con
tribute greatly to the wrongs under
which the farmers suffer by exccs-
sivc rates and determinations and re-
bates. These high-handed practices
ot transportation companies are a
great burden on all producers and
especially upon farmers These
wrongs have been going on for years
and altho we have made some laws
and the courts have given few
wholesome opinions, yet very little
il any impression has been made up
on the general evil and ii is certain
ly true that conditions in these re-
spects are as bad as they ever were
and the late election has not helped
anything very much.
