BRINGING THE IMMIGRANT HERE

The Southern Immigrant Con
ference, which is to be held in
Nashville on Nov. 13, and IA and
10, will be attended, it is under
stood, by several Governors of the
Southern States and large num-
Der Ofhigh railroad officials and
public spirited citizens, who will
be appointed by the various
Boards of Trade throughout the
South, says the American.
The South has gone abruptly
against the labor question. Every
day the negro becomes less salts
factory, less reliable and more
hazardous as a dependable factor
in the industrial situation. No
man carrying on large enterprise,
whether it be manufacturing,
mining, agricultural or construc-
ton work, knows how many of his
negro help will turn up on any
given day.
And it is getting to be frequetly
the case that they do not work
more than half the week. Men
with large funds invested in costly
machinery, or who have made
bond to perform a given work
within a given time, are looking
around for means to escape from
the predicament in which the
negro has placed them.
The way out is through the in
dustrious immigrant from Europe
or the Northwest. The problem
is how to get them here. We need
them not only for all manner of
construction work and as agricul-
tural laborers, but in developing
and building up our country.
When a man has the nerve to
leave his native land and travel
across the ocean he has ambition
and energy, and develops into a
good citizen. For too many years
the South has turned up it's nose
at the immigrant but we have
learned our mistakes, and men
throughout the South are ready
to bring the immigrant here.
The immigrant issue is very
important one in the South, and
the Nashville convention will no
doubt be of great service in help
ing the movement forward.

COURT DOCKET IS contested

The state Supreme Court will
begin its October term the first
Monday in October, with 300
cases carried over from the March
term, condition unprecedented
in the history of the court. All of
these cases have been submitted to
the court by brief, and some of
them have been Investigated by
the justices, but none of them are
yet ready for decision.
Many of them have not even
been touched by the overworked
members of the court, who are
now taking a little breathing spell
preparatory to the hard grind
which awaits them when the court
convenes again.
If any case passes through two
terms of the Supreme Court with
out a decision being reached, the
decision of the lower court be,
comes affirmed by operation of law
The Supreme Court now has al.
most whole terms business in
the leftover cases from the March
term, so it will be seen that it is
rapidly approaching the time
when the law may operate tc
affirm decisions of the lower court
in cases which the Supreme Court
cannot reach.
The only hope of relief, not
alone for the Supreme Court, but
for the people of the state VIII ose
interests are at stake, is in the
ratification of the constitutional
amendment providing for the
state court of appeals upon which
the people will vote in the coming
October election.

OF all the diseases known, with
which women are afflicted, chronic
kidney disease is the most fatal. In
fact, unless early and correct treatment
is applied, the weary patient seldom
survives.
Being fully aware of this, Lydia
E. Pinlxham, early in her career, gave
exhaustive study to the subject, and in
producing her great remedy for
womans ills - Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable CompOund-was careful to
see that it contained the correct combi-
nation of herbs which was sure to con-
troll that fatal disease, wOman's kidney
troubles Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound is the only one eSpe-
cially prepared for women, and thou
sands have been cured of serious kidney
arrangements by it. arrangements of
the feminine organs quickly affect the
kidneys, and when a woman has such
symptoms as pain or weight in the
loins, backache, bearing-down pains,
scalding or burning sensations or de-
posts in the urine, unusual thirst,
swelling of hands and feet, swelling
under the eyes or sharp pains in the
back, running through the groin, she
may infer that her kidneys are affected
and should lose no time in combating
the disease with Lydia E. Pinkham's

marvelously successful it is.

l cannot praise your medicine enough, and
would advise allwomen suffering with kidney
trouble to try it.
Mrs. j. W. Lang, of 626 Third Ave-
nue., New York, writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
I have been a great sufferer with kidney
trouble. My back ached all the time and I
was discouraged. I heard that Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound would cure

has cured me when everything else had failed.

the daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pink

and for twenty-five years since her
advice has been freely given to sick
women. Out of the great volume of ex-
perience which she has to draw from,
it is more than likely she has the very
knowledge that will help your case.
Her advice is free and always helpful.
