The Need of immigrants.

Although recognizing difference OF
opinion on this very important subject,
THE ENQUIRER is quite decided in its
conviction that this section is to be
very materially benefited by the en-
couragement of immigration.
There are hundreds and hundreds Of
acres Of good lands all throughout this
country that are unproductive simply
for the lack of labor, and an increase
in the labor supply, will be Of advan-
tage to the owners Of these lands, and
to the country generally.
OF course, it is to be expected that
an influx of strange people from for
eign countries will increase our res
possibilities as citizens; but that Is a
development that we cannot shun with
credit to ourselves. We should be able
to teach the newcomers our ways and
it should be our purpose to give them
about as much as we expect from
them, If not little more.
Foreigners of any kind, especially
from the north European countries
coming over here in limited numbers,
will be dependent upon the settled res
ident population for advice, instruction
and support, and they may be depend
ed upon to be we'll behaved. steady, in
dustrious, and ready to take in all the
good lessons that may be placed in
their way.
OF course, it is not to be expected
that we are to derive absolutely moth
ing but benefit from immigration: but
there is good reason to believe that the
advantages derived from a few immi-
grants will outbalance the disadvan-
tages, and upon the whole the expert
ment is we'll worth trying.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1906-10-09

rights and privileges Of the white man,
but that he must have the same con-
sideration at the hands of the white
man that the white man expects of
him.
If only the more intelligent and bet
ter classes of whites and blacks enter
ed into the proposition there would be
but little difficulty in the situation.
There would be no trouble about
reaching a basis Of agreement as to
relations. But the danger here, the
constant danger. is with the more ig-
norant and less conservative OF both
races. They misunderstood and mis-
conceive, and are in constant danger
of precipitating trouble from which
the wiser and more conservative may
be unable to escape.
But this passport idea can be made
to operate as a great check on the sit
uation. With the institution Of a ru-
raj police system and a law requiring
every man to have a passport, people
of ell kinds will have to be most care
full about placing themselves In posi-
tions where they may become objects
of suspicion.
This passport system will operate
as a check on vagrants and shady
white characters, especially the safe
blowing and sneak stealing class.
We have no doubt that Senator TILL
mans suggestion will receive careful
consideration and we think 1t ought
to receive such consideration.

THE BIRD SEASON.

The open season for shooting part
ridges In this state does not begin un-
til November 15; but already num-
ber of pot hunters have begun the
slaughter of young birds and there is
a growing feeling of indignation among
sportsmen on that account.
Mr.. w. s. Neil, game warden for
York county has information as to sew
eral parties who have already COM
menced shooting; but his information
is only in the form of suspicion. The
people who have been reporting to him
have been unable to furnish evidence
that will convict and for that reason
he does not feel warranted in making
cases.
But I wish you would say In The
Enquirer" he requested Of the reporter
yesterday, that I am fully determined
to punish every violation Of the game
law that is brought to my attention.
All want is the necessary information
with a good reliable man behind 1t to
make out a case. On proper informa-
ton I will take all the steps that will
be necessary to institute and prosecute
proceedings against violators Of the
law. I shall appreciate any mforma-
tion that may be brought to my atten-
ton from any part Of the county. The
laws governing partridge shooting do
not discriminate in favor Of one man
as against another, and 1t is not right
for the lawless pot hunter to go
slaughtering the young birds before
the end Of the close season"
From such information as the report
er has been able to gather there are
lots Of birds this year. AS general
rule continued wet weather operates
against the Matching Of birds; and for
that reason the sportsmen have been
fearful that the bird crop would be
light this year; but reports from peo-
pie who ought to know In different
sections Of the county are to the ef-
feet that birds are plentiful. The ear
lier birds have already grown large and
strong: but still there are lots Of small
birds that are barely able to fly.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1906-10-09
The Passport Idea.

Elsewhere in this issue will be found
the full text of a notable speech that
Senator Tillman delivered in Augusta,
Ca, last Saturday night.
That this speech will be read with
interest and that it will come in for
good deal of discussion, favorable and
unfavorable, goes without saying.
There is nothing new about the
passport idea, of course, except as to
it's application to conditions existing
in practical operation in the south pre-
vious to the war, especially as applied
to slaves and is still common in most
European countries.
AS to whether it will be practical
to apply the plan outlined by Senator
Tillman in this country now, we are
unable to say; but If 1t can be applied
we are inclined to the opinion that 1t
will be a very good idea, and will go
a long way toward accomplishing the
end desired.
OF course, 1t will be readily under
stood that while the passport idea Is
intended principally for the purpose OF
keeping track of the negroes, any laws
that may be enacted on the subject
will have to apply alike to the MEM
bers Of both races. This, as Senator
Tillman has explained, is mandatory
under the fifteenth amendment to the
Federal constitution.
That such an arrangement will oper-
ate to the great Inconvenience Of
whites as we'll as blacks there is no
question; but it is not intended to an
noy good citizens in the legitimate pur-
suit Of proper business. and such cit
izens should and would be willing to
put up with the more or less personal
inconvenience in order to further the
end to be subserved.
There is nothing in the present sit
uation that was not foreseen by lead
ing southerners years ago: but 1t is a
fact that there are even now thou
sands of good white people who do not
fully realize the nature of the problem
trouble is coming on too gradually and
steadily for general appreciation.
If we were asked to point out the
real crux Of the situation, we would
say that behind it all are the four
teenth and fifteenth amendments to
the constitution. These amendments
have been in force for more than a
generation; but we are only just be-
ginning to feel their effect.
Whites have been accustomed to re-
gard themselves as superior to negroes
and entitled to more consideration and
the negroes have been accustomed
through generations of habit to con-
cede this condition as a matter of
course. AS a matter of fact this su-
periority really exists.
But of late years, the negroes have
been imbibing more and more Of the
same kind of teaching that the white
man is getting and he is beginning to
feel that he is not only entitled to all

CANAL. TO BE DUG BY CoNTRAcT.-1t
has been finally decided that the Pan
anna canal will be completed by con-
tract. President Roosevelt Is known
to support the commission in its posi-
ton that the work can be done more
satisfactorily by contractors than by
the government. He had a long con-
ference with Chairman Shonts today
on the subject and the various argu-
ments in favor Of the contract system
were discussed fully.
This change in the plan Of building
the canal will in no way affect the
employment of Chinese labor. Pro-
posals for furnishing the Chinese la
Dor were made under such conditions
that they can be transferred to con-
tractors and the terms can be fulfilled
in such a manner that the government
can give the coolies Just as much pro-
lection as 1t could II the government
were the direct employer.
1t is likely that no disposition VIII
be made Of the bids for supplying
Chinese labor until after the return
Of Secretary Taft from Cuba. as he
assisted in drawing the specifications
under which proposals were offered
and is much interested I'm the condi-
tiOns under which the Chinese are to
be taken to the isthmus.
President Roosevelt still intends to
visit the isthmus this fall and unless
there be some change for the worse
in the Cuban situation will probably
leave for Colon a short time after the
election. Chairman Shonts. Of the ca
nal commission. will be in the isthmus
at the time of the presidents visit.
