4 HINT TO THE BLACK MAN.
President johnson, Of the Norfolk
and Western Railway Company, says
that the negro laborcr must make good
or get out. That Is blunt way of
stating the case, but it Is true. This
is busy land. and 1t is getting buster
every day. Especially is this true of
the South. We are in competition with
the rest Of the country, and we must
keep pace. We cannot do SO with III
but she cannot afford to employ him
If he refuses to give a good service.
White laborers are coming in and the
cry Is for more. Indeed, 1t is impos-
sible to supply the demand. and our
Commissioner Of Agriculture has gone
on d second trip to Europe to find
white laborers for Virginia, both men
and women. The main objection to
negro labor is that 1t is uncertain and
unreliable. Our staff correspondent who
visited the Norfolk and Western's
model farm was told that the difference
there between the white laborer and
the black laborer was that the white
man made q complete job. That diff
ference exists everywhere.
The negro Is now on notice, He
must make good, or he will be crowd
ed out 1t is a case Of the survival Of
the fittest.

AN INTERESTING LECTURE.
DR. z. L. Stevens, of the A. & N.
College Will Address the Farmers
on a Live Subject.

A new feature is being added to
the Farmers Institute program this
year in the form of an evening lec-
ture illustrated by steroptican lam
tern. An experiment is being made
of holding evening meetings for the
parpoSe of this lantern lecture in
connection with the regular Farmers ,
Institute in many of the counties of
the State. This lecture will be deliv-
cred by DR.. F. L. Stevens of the A.
& M. College and of the n. C. Ex-
pertinent Station, and will discuss
many phases of agricultural prob
lens such as plant Improvement,
breeding, selection, cross-breeding OF
plants, protection of plants from
their enemies, diseases and insects
the various methods of plant culture
and propagation, tools to be used,
and the method of using them; the
economy of farm labor, and the
proper Improvement of tools This
lecture is to be illustrated by large
selection of beautiful lantern slides
which will be exhibited on an eight
foot screen in the lecture hall The
lecture should be interesting, instruc-
tive, and profitable to all farmers
and also to the students, teachers and
to the farmers wives and children.
Several requests have been receiv-
ed from various counties that this
lecture be placed at an earlier hour
in the day in ordes that it might be
convenient for farmers living at &
distance to attend. This, however, Is
obviously impossible since it is nee
essary TO have the room dark in or.
der to exhibit the illustrations.
Among other points in the State
this lecture will be given at Hunters

The First Means Used.

The first means to remove the evil
we're to bring suits under the Sher-
man antitrust law to dissolve every
trust 4 suit of this kind was sue
ec-~fuIIy conducted through the
courts against the Northern SecurI-
ties Railroad trust or merger, as it
was called The beneficlent result Ot
disonIving that great railroad trust
will be more apparent i'll the future
than now. While President j. j.
Hill may be able now to continue
while he lives to do nearly the same
thing, as agent for all the other
roads that the Northern Securities
Holding Company was organized TO,
yet he can not do it many years long
er. and no one individual may be
able to take his shoes 1t takes i
commanding personality to do what
Hill is doing. But if the great Rail-
road Merger Corporation had been
Permitted to stand, these pigmies
could have done through it more than
Hill can now do through his wonder
ful and masterful personality. 1t is
ike the difference in letting a rich
nan entail an estate forever, and pro-
hbiting an entail.
The phohibiting of the permanent
entailing of large estates marks 4
wonderful step forward in the his
tory Of Anglo-Saxon civilization and
jurisprudence.
