CANDIDATE OF NO FACTION.

As repeatedly avowed. throughout
his candidacy. Mr.. Noel ran as the
candidate of no class, nor clan, fad
nor section. intending to become the
governor Of the whole state, and equal
ly regardful Of the interests of all. In
both primaries, he was actively fought
by that powerful political faction
with which Mr.. Quin is usually align
ed, and which is now giving Its aid to
Mr.. Quin, doubtless expecting his aid
in return. Those whom they can con-
troll are all for Mr. Quin. Having
failed to defeat Mr.. Noel at the polls,
they doubtless hope, through Mr.. Quin,
if he be elected speaker, to have a
hand in the control Of the next state
administration. or else to minimize
its usefulness. Of course, Mr.. Quin' S
friends claim this faction will not do
inmate him. but that is always
claimed. Those most completely do
minated are the least aware OF the in
fuence by which they are unconscious
ly but continuously used by others.

evening of Nov. Goth, at which Mr.
Bryan was the principal speaker.
Noted democrats had been invited
from all portions of the country, but
it was particularly noticeable that
such shining lights as Govr. Hoke
Smith, Tom Johnson, of Cleveland,
and Gov Folk, of Missouri, were con-

immigration Movement.

More than ever in its history, the
south has begun to reach out for the
foreigner. He is sorely needed in the
development of the vast material re-
sources awaiting the transforming
hand of intelligent and skillfull labor.
From Italy, it is to be expected that
many immigrants will come. Climatic
reasons favor along with the abundant
opportunities for improving their con-
dltlon. Here and there, in some
quarters, outbreaks and unfavOrable
to the incoming of the native of
southern Europe appear on the sur
face. To exclude him from public
schools would work a double wrong.
1t would not only retard in the pro
cesses of making good American cit
liens, but might involve in cOmplica-
tons of an international character.
There is no doubt that the negro
problem is being gradually widespread
through distribution of that race over
the entire United States. AS labOrer
in the cotton fields and lumber dis
tricts of the south, the incoming
italian will prove substitute of much
greater economic value.
In spite of financial stringency an6
the suspension of constructive work
the outlook for southern progress anC
prosperity was never brighter. Al
Industrious, frugal, intelligent for
eignor seeking wider opportunities
of betterment, can find them nowhere
in richer abundance than among the
southern people. Knoxville Sentinel

Where Is the Money !?

Less than sixty days ago the bust
ness of the country was in a normal
condition; money circulated freely
and unrestrictedly, and the immense
pay rolls of the thousands of indus
tries and corporations in these United
States were promptly paid in cash.
What are the conditions now. But
few banks in the country are paying
out over $50 per week in money, even
though the applicant may have ten
thousand dollars on deposit; currency
is being sold at from 80 to AZ pre-
MUM in the money centres; several
of the largest industries in the country
have gone to the wall; over two hum
dred thousand men have been thrown
out of employment; several bank
presidents and leaders in finance have
committed suicide; and money cannot
be had to pay for the crops, meet
payments due, or for pay rolls.
Panama City pilot., 1907-12-05

And all this in spite Of the Govern
ment having placed over 5000 100000
with the National banks, principa-.y
in New York city; the importation of
$50, 900, 900; OF gold. National banks
increasing their circulation to the
extent of millions; and enormous in
creases in currency through the issu-
ing of fiat money in the way of clear
ing house certificates.
Where has all this money gone?
Not into legitimate business channels
for there is no money to move the
crops, to pay debts, or meet pay rolls.
1t is easy to trace the gold imports
and the Government deposits to Wall
street. That maelstrom of "frenzied
france" has taken into it's Unsuitable
nav the hundreds of millions that
should now be in circulation. Not
only that, but it has through the
panic prices paid for money by its vic
tins lured to it's commerce destroying
boards the deposits of those country
banks that seek profit rather than
honor at such a time as this.
Nor is there any possibility of this
hoard of money being put into circu-
lation just SO long as political effect
is the sole purpose of the manipu-
tors of this crisis. 1t is not avarice
that prompts these billionaires to take
these enormous sums out of circula-
ton; to destroy confidence; to bank
rupt the common people; but to re-
create conditions that will permit OF
further villiany in their damnable
practices. 1t is the settled purpose
of men who have been led to believe
through past success in their illegiti-
mate practices that they were Ordain-
ed by the Almighty to rule over the
land, and to crush out all opposition
to their i'll begotten unlawful schemes
By their acts they have brought
about conditions in our land that are
as damaging as those of such wars as
have devastated many prosperous
land, and they are as much traitors
to their country as though they were
engaged in a warfare against it, anc
much more to be dreaded. How long
will conscientious, self respecting
people submit to such domination
and the evil results thereof?
Panama City pilot., 1907-12-05

1t may fairly be said that the most
important semipublic body in the
United States is the National Rivers
and HarbOrs Congress which con-
venes at Washington on Wednesday
of next week. It's Importance lies in
the fact that it is expected to formu-
late broad national policy as to in
land waterway and harbor improve
ments but committed to no special
project. Rivers and harbOrs i'm
prOvemert went in many cases by
favor until within recent years, when
the United States congress was led,
largely by the ridicule of the press,
to the policy of basing apprOpria
tons to a greater degree on the proof
adduced by any particular section or
port as to the commerce that could
be developed in that section or at
that port if deeper channels and more
secure harbors could be provided.
The Rivers and Harbors Congress is
a capitalization of the same thought
that has led the national congress to
a more enlightened pOlicy.-Times-
Union.
