1t may not I've generally known.
but il is true. that long before Eli
got there with his gin. the North
dabbled IN slavery rs much or mure |
than the South. II any man. white
or black, North or Sonth. thinks the
South was solely the sea or cause al
slavery here. he Is wide Of the mark
and short of the facts. 1t is trne
that for the twenty years prior tn
the civil war each year Yankee ships
landed $1,000 negroes in the South,
300, 900 in all These ships were own
ed in New York and netted their
owners ten million n year. Johnny
Reb furnished the cool cash. and the
argus eyed Yankee the gOods-i. e..
the sable sons of Ham.
Again. 1t may not he generally
known, hut trne. that while Horace
Greeley. Wendell Phillips and Henry
Ward Beecher were preaching the
abolition of Southern slavery, their
next door neighbours were loading
their pockets with slave money from
the South. And while Lady Harriet
i3eecher Stowe WIS writhing and
! writing over Uncle Tom and his
cabin, her fellow townsmen were I'LL
ing their Golfers with Southern slave
money.
! The last ship that went out of CON-
mission and closed out the traffic was
the ''Clotilda. She WAS burned to
the waters edge In Mobile bay in
the spring of lS49. This was but lit
tie more than year before Abraham
Lincoln was nominated on the anti
slavery platform, and little more
than two years before the famous
emancipation proclamation.
Every sensible negro should see
and study these facts. He ought to
see that while he was the bond SER
vent of the Southern white man, his
ancestors were brought by the North
and bought by the South. And if
slavery was wrong In principle and
bad In practice, the Yankee aud the
Southern man stand cheek by jowl as
to responsibility.
i 1.-The earth Is the Lords and the
fullness thereof" All the people al

the negro that the God Of heaven
took pity ON him in his wretched
barbarism and brought him to Amer

people In the world. 1t Is a credit
to the Southern white man that he
. was made the custodian and master
of these hapless SONS of Ham. And
while slavery had its evils and the
negro his faults. slavery was best fol
the negro. The Southern white man
was the best master for him. Az

Big Conference 0H the Panama
Exposition.


The commercial bodies of New
Orleans, headed by the Progress
sive Union and the Merchants and
Manufacturers Association, have
issued a call for a Panama Expo
sition conference, to be held In
New Orleans June n, % and 20,
and invitations to participate are
being sent to all commercial bod
les in the southeastern Mississippi
Valley, and southwestern States.
The Exposition is designed to
celebrate the completion of the
Panama canal and the Lakes to
the Gulf Deep Waterway, the in
estimable benefits of which will be
felt by all sections of the country,
but more Immediately by the
Southern Valley and the Western
States. Therefore it is planned to
start the movement in real earnest
after a conference among the dele
gates from those States, in order
that the views and ideas of all Sec
tons may be known and acted up
on. With this in view, Chairman
Philip Werlein of the Transports
ton committee, has made formal
request of the railroads for a one.
fare round trip rate for the occa
sion. and has received unofficial
assurance that a one-fare rate plui
25 cents will be granted. The pro
gramme includes smoker ant
conference on the Panama EXPOSE
ton proposition on the evening o
June n, and such other business
sessions as may be found necessa
ny, together with several reception
and entertainments.
i Once the views of the variou
delegations become known, tn
work of organizing the Exposition
will begin on big scale. Ne,
Orleans proposes to raise the SUI
of 5000, 900, and it is expects
that this sum will be augmente
} from various sources to about $l5
100000. The Exposition will b
!. held in 1915 or 1916, on the shor

Poisoning With Paris Green.

10Th, says. Inefe now fefhdfhs 10
doubt that Paris green thoroughly
applied to the cotton plant by
Capt. b. w. Marston's process is
the only efficacious means of keep
ing down and killing off the boil
weevil which has been advocated
up to the present time. Captain
Marston proved the efficacy of his
method yesterday and last Sunday
in an experiment made with the
poison on his Ninock and Star
Point plantations, and in every in
stance where the poison was APP
piled conformably with his instruc-
tons the result was satisfactory
On the Ninock plantation poison
was applied to large patch of
cotton which was covered with
weevils last week, but the plant at
that time was destitute of squares,
and on yesterday, week later,
the cotton in question was thor
oughly examined and not a live
live weevii could be found. Be
sides the cotton had in the mean
time taken on number of squares
and not one of them was found
punctured. On the other hand a
large plot which had been poison
ed after squares had been taken
on by the plant the next day was
examined and not live weevil was
found, but in number of instanc-
es punctured bolls or squares were
discovered.
Last Sunday seven acres reek-
ing with weevils were thoroughly
poisoned on the Star Point planta-
ton by means of a sprayer, the
method consisting of solution of
Paris green, water and sugar or
moiasses Tor any other cheap adj
hesive substance which will readi-
" dissolve in water) in the follow
ing proportions: Half pound Paris
green to two gallons water and one
pound brown sugar or molasses,
well mixed. This ingredient, by
means of a sprayer. was sprayed
into the top foliage of each cotton
stalk, where the boil weevil hides
until the cotton begins to take on
squares, after which, if not reached
with poison, he attacks the squares
and punctures them, leaving thou

later on and develop into full-sized
