wATsoN's MEAT.

Here's what the Albany Herald
has to ssGGg about the able senior
Senator from Georgia, which the
Tom Watson Hoke Smith combine
has marked for defeat:
Senator Bacon seems to be about
the only Democrat in the United
States senate who can give the
Republican majority an anxious
half hour and bring them E'to
book" when they undertake to do
things regardless. On Monday last,
Senator Bacon called halt on the
Republican leaders and forced
consideration, in open session, of
the appointments of the president
of representatives to the Moroccan
conference. Senator Bacon turned
the trick by introducing a resolu-
ton which the Republican majority
could not afford to ignore.

black line Now l viii go into the next
room, with my eyes as closely covered
as you may desire In my absence you
may take from the line any number Of
dominoes you please provided you take
them from that end which is now at
my right hand and place them at the
opposite end, so that, except for the
change in the places Of the piece, the
line is just the same as before. On my
return, without unbandaging my eyes,
will tell you the number transported
from one end to the other l viii do
more. From the midst Of these domi-
noes, of which you have changed the
position, l Will draw one which, by the
addition Of its spots, will tell you ex-
actly the number which you took from
right to left. After they have made the
change count with your fingers-if your
eyes are ebandaged-the dominoes from
left TO right as far as the thirteenth.
The spots on this thirteenth will inya-
riably represent the number of domi-
noes whose position has been altered.
But in forming the line originally you
must have arranged the first thirteen
dominoes, beginning at the left, so that
the spots on the first form the number
10, of the second II, of the third 10.
and so on up to a double blank for the
last and thirteenth. You place the 9th
er doIninoes afterward in the order in
which they happen to present them
selves"

NoNpRoDucERs RUSHING SOUTH

The need of restrictive immi-
grafton laws was never more
illustrated than by the
existing in the south to-
day. Instead Of receiving any OF
the agricultural or mechanical
labor that is constantly pouring
into the ports of this country, the
south is getting none but the non
producers, the peddlers, little
store keepers, musicians, eating
house keepers and men who pro-
duce nothing, but men who come
here aIlured by the easy ways of
making money and by the care
less neglect of our own people to
take advantag of the opportunities
offered to make an easy living.
Our own people go on for years
and fail to see these opportunities,
or else think they are beneath their
dignity, and the first thing you
know here comes a foreigner who
cannot speak a word of English
and he starts a business in which
he makes a fortune in a few years.
He may not have had a cent of
money when he came here, but his
relatives on. friends who have made
their pile in this country have
sent him a ticket to come on and
then have him set up in business.
There are regular syndicates on
a small scale formed in this eoun-
try for that very purpose. We all
know there are laws against pau
pers being admitted to this coun-
try, but they come in by every
ship that lands at our ports from
foreign nations.
But they are not going to the
farms by ones and twos as long as
they have to come in contact with
and are compelled to compete with
the negro, and we may talk alb )ut
it until doom day and it won't do
and good until we change our way
of doing things. If our immigra-
ton bureaus will make an effort to
secure large bodies of land on
which to place colonies the south
will in few years be filed up
with reliable white labor, because
the natural increase in population
of these farm hands will be so
great that they will seek work at
other places and they will gradual
ly take the place of the negro who
is leaving the farm every day un-
less he can either own or rent a
place.
1t is becoming more and more
of a problem of how TO obtain
reliable farm labor, and this is the
only solution that one can see.
