Returning to our own little Diamond
State-so called because it shines in his
tory like a diamond on the bosom of the
nation-though next to the smallest in
the galaxy of States, it shines in splendor
equal in briliancy to any in the constella-
ton. And now We wish TO pay our most
profound respect to our flag, and also
wish to confer unstinted praise and I'M
ieigned thanks to the wisdom of the
Legislature which made it possible that
the American Flag should float in the
breeze, from the flagstaff of every Pub
lie School in the State of Delaware.
In conclusion, we can do no better in
our peroration than to quote those beau
tiful lines of pathos and patriotism writ.
ten by Joseph Rodney Drake
Flag of the free hearts hope and home,
By angel hands to valor given,
Thy stars have lit the welkin dome,
And all thy hues were born in Heaven.
Forever float that standard sheet
Where breaths the foe but falls before Us,
With freedoms soil beneath our feet,
And freedoms banner streaming o Ter us.
THE above grafton was delivered at
the graduating exercises in the Frederick
High School, on June 4th, 1905, by Miss
Lula D. Emory, the nineteen-year-old
daughter of Martin Emory, of Milford
Neck, and it is a splendid expression of
patriotic sentiment by an American Girl.
The future of this country is safe, while
the women, the mothers of the future,
are imbued with patriotism such as is
by Miss Emory in her gradu-
ating Grafton.

THE MILL SITUATION is BLUE.
Smith-Draper Co., OF Charlotte, to
Shut Down--Other CIosings.

Charlotte, N. c., Aug. 2.-The tex
tile manufacturing situation in this
section is decidedly blue, nor do mill
men know where and when it will
end. The big Smith-Draper mills,
1t is learned to-day, will shut down
tomorrow. While 1t Is given out
that the shutdown will be only for
one week, well-informed mill men
understand that 1t will be for much
greater period. 1t is believed that
the cessation of operations by this
company will mark the real COM
mencement of general closing down
Of mills in Piedmont Carolina. Four
big Spartanburg mills closed down
last week, and only one of the dozen
mills in Charlotte Is operating full
time, the others being shut down
completely or running part time.
The Smith-Draper mills are five in
number, having a capital of nearly
$2,000i000 and employing several
thousand operatives. They manufac-
ture white sheetings principally. For
months the situation in the cotton
goods market has been serious and
grows no better. Prices are low,
and there Is little or no demand even
at the bottom figures, and for months
the mills which have been running
have simply piled up manufactured
goods in their warehouses. With the
mills which have been on part time
1t has been merely a matter of keep
ing their otherwise idle operatives to.
gether and the operations have been
conducted at loss.

the improvement continue ought to
be strong and well again when 1
reach home in October.
As to Italian Immigrants.
Having myself been very pro-
|nounced In expressing the idea that
Italians were undesirable Immigrants
for South Carolina, sense of Justice
compels me to Say that having watch
ed the people of Italy with that very
question In view, / still feel that the
people Of Naples and those of
Southern Italy, whom saw at Saies-
rum and Postum, are not the type
we would like to have.
From Rome northward the impress
sion made on me is entirely favor
able, and feel sure that IL we could
get any of the Northern Italians into
the Southern States they would make
good citizens and help tn every way
to assist the white race in solving
the race problem. Our Investigations
show that most of these who leave
home go to South America, especially
to the Argentine Republic, while we
also learned that there is a strong
refiuX a current of those who have
come to the United States, both ships
on which we travelled having their
full compliments of 1900 each re-
turning home. Good and bad alike,
they all love Italy.
