Requires Investigation.

Secretary of State Power is reported
as having received a letter from
Washington, d. c., real estate dealer
detailing plan to relieve the con-
gested districts in the large cities from
the host OF. unemployed by diverting
them to the rural districts of the South
where thousands upon thousands of
acres lie idle.
There will be no attempt to deny
that the South in general, and Missis-
sippi in particular has immense tracts
Of land waiting to be brought under
cultivation, and that suitable settlers
will be cordially received. But there
is no room in the South for an army
of unemployed, people used to work in
factory or store. The North, as rule
has never any concerted attempt to aid
in the development of our resources
While there is no longer any sectional
antipathy or prejudice, the North has
worked for its own interests exclusive

ity of crime and all his little life he
has been in an Satmosphere that
wrecked with filth and wickedness.
While he was at the Salvation army
quarters he was frequently guilty of
theft and Capt. and Mrs. McAfee did
all they could to keep him in the right
path, but without avail.
The misconduct of this 10-year-old
boy emphasizes more than ever the
need of reformatory, and it is a dis
grace to the state of Mississippi that
there is no place where young boys
can be saved? Many of them could
by the proper restraints and manage
ment be made useful men, where
otherwise they become criminals.

President Hardy.

THE Daily News today received an
other 1900 word telegram from Presi-
dent J. c. Hardy, of the A. & NJ. Col
lege, concerning the recent disgrace
full episode in that cherished state in
stitution.
In this dispatch, President Hardy
jienounces Captain Wellborn in vitrolic
language and pays his respects to the
press in the bitterest and most vim
dictive language.
Despite the fact that this dispatch
is prepaid by President Hardy at a
cost of several dollars, the Daily News
politely but positively refuses to pub

President Hardy may be a good man,
but his usefulness, in his present ca
pacity at least, has been destroyed.
He should save the money which he is
squandering on press kilograms and
take three-year vacation. 1t would
be good for the state AID the college,
and it might be the means of making
him more compLcent, if not a wiser
man.

had scruples against slavery and he
