Big MEASURES In CONGRESS.

At IL O'Clock on Monday week, Marcel
4, the Fifty-ninth Congress comes to
an end by virtue of legal limitation. II
ingly active President who does not
hesitate to thrust upon it all sorts Of
measures, some of which have a tend
ency to break up party lines. Nc Presi-
dent before him ever meddled with
Congressional action as President
Roosevelt does not hesitate to do on
slight ~provocation.
Not a few of the big measures OF the
present Congress owe their success to
the President. He inspired the bill to
to campaign funds. This bill has gone
to the statute book, but it is valueless
because it contains no publicity clause.
Publicity is the only way in which the
rolling up of corruption funds by "the
interests can be prevented. The Pres
ident, too, is a big navy man, and an
increase of the navy will be authorized.
The immigration bill became a neces-
sity because in it had been woven the
settlement of the San Francisco school
ISSUE. The President put himself di-
rectly behind it, and it went through
both houses speedily. The government,
too, will gain,n 40 Doubt the right to ap-
peal law points in criminal cases. The
Presidents Algeciras treaty was rati-
fed, and 1t is said the Dominican treaty
is to be ratified in order to prevent the
Of an extra session. All these
are important measures, and it cannot
be said that the President has scored an
failure in any measure upon
which his heart had been set.
A great many bills will, however, be
left on the calendar, including the child
labor bill, the national licensing ofcor-
poratiohs, the reduction ofimportduties
on Philippine products brought into the
States, the abolition of the right
of Injunction in labor cases, the forest
bill, the bill to change the rates
of postage and classification of second
class matter, the ship subsidy bill, and
the bill limiting the working hours of
employees.
It is remarkable that the short session
time in which to pass SO many
general laws as it did, and it is but fair
say that it would not have done SO if
President had not exerted his power
and influence in favor of the measures
he desired to see placed on the statute

DIRECT IMMIGRATION EFFORTS.

While insisting that the nation as a
the Chicago News is fair and just
enough to say that "justice requires
that the national government give
careful thought to the Southern labor
situation, and extend to that part Of
the nation every possible assistance in
its effort to obtain white labor. With
l 200 900 immigrants arriving every
year, under existing conditions it
ought to be possible for a large share OF
the newcomers to be diverted from the
congested foreign quarters of the great
cities of the North to the fertile re-
gions of the South, where profitable
employment in a mild climate awaits
them"
If a similar sentiment existed in New
England, particularly inMassachusetts,
no obstacles would be put in the way of
the South. It is plain, however, that
the Lodges and the Coverings and the
Gardeners, of Massachusetts,. are deter
mined to curb and check the South in
l0NO4y PoooAOAO AlhAAACAs oue thOAA u
forts to change the new immigration
bill into a severe restriction measu
were to some extent unsuccessful, and
each State in the South is left free to
organize movements looking to the
gathering of immigrants in Europe to
be landed at Charleston, New Orleans
or other Southern ports. Nearly every
southern state is moving in this mat
ter, and the legislature in this state
should lay the foundation for a strong
effort to bring to this state more white
men-more white farmers, more cotton
mill workers, more men who will seek
employment in our lumber mills, fur
naces and other industries.
And while we are making this effort
we should also organize against the
four-dollar head tax imposed by Mas.
sachusetts, which practically may be-
come a tax on the south. It is esti-
mated that every immigrant is worth
as a wealth producers $110O to the
country, and it is unjust to tax a new
conner at all. There should be no head
tax whatever, and if the south will
unite in a demand for it's repeal it car
be stricken out in the next Congress.

THE: MAIL SERVICE.

r. |
The committe on postofices and post
roads of the House of Representatives
has made lcertain recommendations
which lit wishes inserted in the post
Office appropriation bill and which, if
adopted, will reduce the amounts paid
to railroads for carrying the mails and
materially lessen, it is believed, the
efficiency of the service. It is proposed,
among other things, that at the time of
weighing he mails, as now provided by
law, emptyIEmail bags shall not be
weighed or9 taken into account in de-
termining the total weight of the mail
carried and that sin computing the
average weight of mail carried per day
the whole number of days such mail
may be weighed shall be used as the
divisor."
It is also proposed to weigh the mails
for six days of the week and force the
railroads to carry it seven days, where
seven days. service is given, for the
weights obtained only on six. These
and other suggestions submitted by the
committee should be opposed by the
business interests of the country and
the public in general, since nothing is
of o real concern to our mercantile
and social life than the expeditions way
in which the mails are handled. It is
estimated that the effect of eliminating
the empty mail bags from mai weights
will amount to a reduction in the reve-
nues of the railroads of 81, 200, 900, and
if the rate for carrying in excess OF
5000 pounds a day is changed, as pro-
posed, the railroads will receive many
millions of dollars less than they are
now receiving. Such a large decrease
in the amount paid to the carrying
companies will certainly result in a de-
terioration of the postal service.
Economy on the part of Congress is
good, but there is such a thing as yer
doing it. False economy is always ex-
penSive.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by 1obal applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitution
al remedies. Deafness is caused by an inhamed
condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is infarned you have a
runbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
this tube restored to it's normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed oreve1; nine cases out OF
ten are caused by Catarrh. which is nothing but
an inhamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

case of Deafness Caused by catarrh) that can

SOUTH CAROLINA'S IMMIGRANTS.

The first shipload of immigrants tina
Commissioner Watson of South Caro-.
lima collected in Belgium and Germany
went into cotton mills in the upper par
of that state, but the second shipload
recently landed at Charleston, consists
almost wholly of farmers. Some o.
them are seeking employment on the
South Carolina farms, while some OF
them are buying lands, thus becoming
their own bosses at once.
The Greenyille, s. c., News thinks
the state immigration department has
accomplished a vast amount OF good
even in the face of great difficulties,
and now thai the hard part of the
pioneer work has been accomplished,
the News says hat the uture work OF
the department should be much more
extended and beneficial. South Caro-
lima has decided tc stay in the immi-
grant importation business. Secretary
work, and the new immigration bill
does not change b situation.
The South Carolina immigration
bureau does not deny that it is aided
by mills and by individuals that desire
white labor. It takes their money and
acts for them in collecting immigrants
in Europe and in forwarding them, not
to New York, but straight to Charles
ton.
Although the opinions of Solicitor
Earle and of Secretary Straus in the
Wittekind case are plain and explicit,
yet the spinners of New England do
not propose to let the movement go on
unchecked. At the instance of Con-
gresham Gardner of Massachusetts
the House passed a resolution request
ing the Secretary of Commerce and
Labor to send to the House any in
formation relative to he introduction
OF foreign laborers into South Carolina
by Labor Commissioner Watson, and
also the opinion of the solicitor of the
department as to whether said labor
ers were lawfully admitted. The res
olution was discussed by Messrs. Find
ley and Lever, of South Carolina, and
by Mr.. Underwood, all of whom de-
Glazed they had ne objection to the
adoption Of the resolution, and 1t was
adopted.
Secretary Straus will undoubtedly
stand by the position he took at the
outset in this matter, and no harm will
probably come from the Gardner reso-
luton. It, however, shows that the
Massachusetts spinners do not propose
to let the southern mills acquire addi-
labor from Europe if a way can
be devised to cut them out under the
terms of the alien contract law. The
matter needs watching and the mem
bers from the south can be trusted to
see that the Gardeners in the Hous do
not induce Congress to act unjustly.
