will probably lose both her older rep

people should not fail to return Mr..
Clark by a big vote, for that will still
further increase his influence in the
House
He has introduced two very i'm.

THE SOUTH As II Is TODAY.

The following from a recent issue
of The Atlanta Constitution shows
what position the South is taking II
the nation today. The Constitution
says:
Discussing the marvellous progress
Of education in the South, as well as
the growth of Southern industries, The
Washington Post of recent date thus
concludes an editorial:
1t is not alone in the increased
number Of schools in the South
that change is noted. The range
and quality of the instruction is
greatly improved. Better teach
,ers are employed, modern methods
adopted, manual training encour-
aged, and a beginning made in
the establishment of libraries. 1t
is great day for the South. With
prosperity and education in the
lead, she is marching on to noble
conquests.'
Such expressions serve to concen-
trate attention on the fact that the
South is today probably the most thor
oughly advertised section Of the ma
ton. Fifteen, even five years ago,
the steady cry was, Go West, young
mani But with a better understand
ing of the limitless resources of the
territory between the Potomac and
the Rio Grande, and Of the endless
opportunities offered to youth and am
bition, the tide has greatly turned.
"A curious fact in this connection
is that the wide publicity given the
South's advantages has been less the
result of effort originating in section
than voluntary testimony on part of
visitors who were wildly impressed
by tours through the various States.
Many of them came to us with pre-
of an adverse nature, only
to become converted into enthusiastic
and loyal friends of the South, and be-
levers in its industrial future.
in view Of these facts, 1t is we'll
that the people of the South should |
bear in mind the necessity for con.
servatism in legislation and public |
sentiment. We loom large in the eye |
Of the nation, it is true. Part of the
price we must pay for that valuable
prominence is an attitude toward all
phases of development so tolerant and
equitable as to make this section pre-.

ABOUT WORRY.

II is undeniable that people suffer
more from wholly unnecessary worry
than they do from the actual expert
ence of trials and misfortunes. Even
the sense of death lies most in appre-
hension. Every one could do the day S
work and bear the days burden with
out too much strain if they were not
trying to do tomorrow's work and
bear its burden at the same time. The
troubles of the day, says the Cincin-
natl Enquirer, never are as over
whelming as they seem in anticipation,
and the pleasures that might come
from discharging its tasks are often
married by worrying about tomorrow S.
The cares that are behind us do not
seem to have been so unbearable, and
some of them we recognize as bless
ings. but tomorrow-who can tell the
dangers that may be awaiting us to-
morrow? Strange it is that we do
not learn that the best way, the only
-sEfs, C zse f--5fne Il by writing
for il Tomorrow will surely come
and will bring its own cares and du-
ties. and also its own strength and
ways of meeting them, and you only
burden yourself and weaken your ca
pacity for the duties of today by dread
ing and fretting about what may hap
pen tomorrow. Just how and why it
is, no one knows, but certain it is that
nothing that happens to man wears
him out and lowers his mental and
physical tone half as much as worry.
1t would be Difficult: if it did any good
but it doesn't We are all living under
a system of law which comprises the
universe and every atom in it, and it is
as irrational to fear tomorrow as it
is to waste time mourning over the
past Live in today, and give to its
duties and pleasures all your
strength and energy and smothering
foolish apprehensions, and tomorrow
will take care of itself

A New York negro bishop in a ser

eminent hail-Columbia, and advised
his hearers to go back to Africa. How
thankful the American people would
be if about four-fifths of the negroes
of the country, and a few thousand of
their friends and sympathizers in the
North, would follow his advice. The
only reason there is a race question is
because there are number of fool
negroes ready to believe all that a few
fool whites tell them. Left alone, the

A good Palestine lady was COM
planning a few days ago that she had
TO pay cents a spool for thread, and
she blamed the home merchant for
the increase in price. The truth is.
the home merchant is left no discre-
ton in the matter. He has to pay
more than cents a spool for the
thread wholesale, through the grace
of the thread trust He might con-
tinue to sell the thread at cents a
spool, and lose a little on each spool,
in order to please his trade. Perhaps
most merchants would not object to
this But he has no discretion in the
matter as to the selling price. The
trust says to the merchant: You must
sell thread at the price we fix for the
retailing of thread, or you can buy no
more thread. The thread trust should
be put out of business.
