Col. Walker may have southern
blood, and we hope he has, but his
language would lead one to believe
the environments of his life have not
been truly southern. We cannot yet
forget the Old Black Mamma nor the
Old Black Auntie and Uncle of infan-
cy and childhood, nor even the black
servant girl, and we would not call
one OF them "buck" or a ''wench, ;"
for we are sure it would bow their old
snowy heads in grief, that their old
swiveled, bent and tottering form
would become more feeble, and that
they would LOOK to heaven in a vain
effort to discover from the Advise some
excuse for their being.
But we are heartily with Col. Walk
er in demanding separate coaches.
No decent, respectable negro woman
desires to be mixed up with and INSULT
ed by Il lot of low-bred, drunken white
trash.
Usually, the low down white ele-
ment cause the negroes more trouble
than the negroes cause the white peo-
people.
Treat the negro as a negro-keep
him in his place he will always
be easy to control.
The way to do this is to keep the low
down whites separated from the ne
gro. Have seperate waiting rooms
and seperate coaches.
The only sensible, fair and impartial
way 10 look at this question is as a
matter of race divergcnce-the great
dividing line between the two races.
No greater difference could be
imagined than betwee white and black.
The pity is that the two races were
permitted to come together as they are.
The only solution to the problem is
10y legally devised dividing lines-by
laws that will separate the two races,
as far as possible, from social con-
tact.
In Missouri we need most the "Jim
Grow" law, which we would like to
see patterned after the oklahoma law,
providing separate coaches for white
and black, and plainly labeled separ-
ate waiting rooms and separate closets
at every railroad station.
We contend that this is to the best
interest of both races.

Several more farmers have suggest
ed their willingness to bring in posts,
among them being H. Lingemann.
But the city council got busy at its
meeting Monday night and made ar
rangements to put in these posts, the
town Furnishing the posts and it is the
intention to have the business men
furnish the chains to go in front of
their premises. No time should be
lost in pushing this work to compile
tion.
The country people do not want to
hitch to the public square fence, and
the city people should certainly have
sufficient pride and appreciation to
accommodate them in this small way.

We are due one advertiser as much
as another. 1t is not our purpose to
kill the goose that lays the golden egg,
but we cannot and will not draw a di-
viding line. No advertiser will be
disbarred from certain page simply
because some other advertiser wants
to advertise on that page. Each and
every advertiser looks alike to us. II
is impossible for US to show preference
or have pets The only way for any
one to get page, alone, is to take the
whole page and pay for it. Page adj
vertising is the only advertising we
can guarantee special position. This
is plain business proposition. Our
space is our stock in trade, and when
used we must have its value.

How about the especial edition" of
the Haytl Herald, advertising Hayti
and its resources. DO the business
men and property owners of the town
want it, or do they want to drag long
in the same old happy-gO-lucky-God-
send-Sunday kind of way? 1t is up
to them. If they do not want it, then
of course it is folly for US to attempt
to supply it.

a SANE CHRISTMAS.

The old custom of firing Roman
candles, tire-crackers and other
powder burning instruments on
Christmas, ought to be done away
with, and we sincerely hope the Of
ticers of this city will not permit
the use of them in the corporate Ii
mits. They are dangerous to life
and property, and the use of them
is waste of money. If there is
not an ordinance prohibiting the
discharge of firearms, fireworks,
ETC., as mere sport, then, gentlemen
of the council, pass one Monday
night. If there is, Mr.. Haynes, and
you, Mr.. Brock, peace officers, see
that it is enforced. Especially
should the toy blank pistol tie sup

A Jim CROW" LAW.

Missouri, one of the greatest
states in the Union, can become
greater state if our Legislature will

you say, Hon. Sterling McCarty,

lieve that justice to the ladies and
children of Missouri demand that
they be separated in travelling from
foul-smeliing, low-bred negroes?

THOSE HITCHING POSTS.

The Hayti Herald suggested
some time ago that hitching posts
be placed around the square to
protect the fence. Nothing has been
done by the city, anu the Herald
intimates that it will set day for
the farmers to haul the posts and
set them.--St. Francois County

NITROGEN TO BE USED
TO AID THE SOIL

sends the price up to rs cents or
more per pound.
A small amount of nitrogen is add
ed to the soil continually by rains,
which absorb it from the air. Scien-
tific farmers take nitrogen from the
air with natures machines-the var
ious air plants, such as cowpeas, Glow
er and vetch. These plants live princi-
pally on the nitrogen in the air, stor-
ing 1t up in their leaves and stalks.
The farmer plows these crops under
and thus returns tons of nitrogen to
the soil. But farm bookkeeping proves
that this costs nearly as much as If
the same amount of nitrogen had been
bought from the fetilizer company.

at 9S.
The cloverseed prospect for this
years yield is placed at 81.
The potato yield is S5 bushels per
acre, the total crop being 12,200,376
bushels. This is decrease of nine
bushels per acre as compared with
last years crop, or total decrease
in crop of 10000 bushels, as COM
pared with last year.
The total corn crop of the state, as
indicated by the report, is 90,3S4,1S5
bushels. The corn has been damaged
by the excessive rain and much Of it
is moulding in the shock.
The Hessian fly is reported quite
generally at work in the wheat, but
no serious damage is reported.
The crop report shows that alfal-
ia is now grown in every county in

Washington, Nov. 5-Scientists at
the department of agriculture are in
terested In a project to open at Great
Falls, S. c., a plant for taking nitrogen
from the air to fertilize wornout land.
The agricultural chemists, however,
are not optimistic over the future of
the new enterprise. A similar plant,
started at Niagara Falls some years
ago, proved financial failure and was
abandoned.
However, the promoters may have
discovered some chemical secret that
will enable them to take the airs nj
trogen so cheaply they can sell 1t at
present prices for profit" said DIR.
Harvey w. Wiley, chief of the bureau
of chemistry.
Nitrogen Is the most important and
most expensive fertilizer the farmer
has to buy. 1t is indispensable to
plant life. Ordinary crops take vast
amount of the element from the soil.
Unless there is continual restoration
the soil gradually becomes sterile.
Yet four-fifths of the earths en-
velope of air is nitrogen. The nitro
gen supply rests on the earth with a
pressure of 12 pounds to the square
inch.
Our present nitrogen supply prac-
tically all comes from the earth's sub
terranean deposits of nitrates, chief of
which are the saltpeter deposits of
Chile. Farmers buy commercial nj.
trogen for Is cents per pound. In
$1,000 worth of prepared fertilizer the
nitrogen represents $500. The cheap
est price at which nitrogen can be
mechanically taken from the air and
sold at present is 25 cents per pound
A process that could fix" the airs
nitrogen and sell it at from five to
ten cents per pound profitably, might
revolutionize farming So far, how
ever, the processes invented have not
been able to compete with the mining
of nitrates Even cheap water is far
too expensive. DR.. Wiley thinks the
manufacture of nitrogen of the all
will not become profitable until the
diminishing supply of nitrate deposits

Ashland Man Is Real Friend
To Employees

Ashland, o., Nov. 5-"Opportunity
is here-not in the future Every day
has it's opportunity If one will only
look for it,"
F. E. Myers, millionaire pump and
hay tool manufacturer, and presi-
dent of the Cleveland, Southwestern
& Columbus electric line who made
these statements, speaks from actual
experience.
Many new industries have been
landed for Ashland through his enter
prise. That's one of the reasons why
Ashland has doubled in population in
the past seven years.
Just now Myers and his brother
and partner, Philip A. Myers, are pre-
pairing to drill number of gas wells
in the vicinity of Ashland to furnish
Ashland manufacturers and private
consumers gas at a much less rate
than the Logan Natural Gas Co.,
which now has franchise that ex-
pires in 1912, is furnishing it. F. q.
Myers & Bro have just secured fran
chise to furnish natural gas to private
consumers at a rate not to exceed rs
cents thousand cubic feet. Factories
also will get gas at low rate. Myers
is a dynamic, energy-inspiring man,
who has made success in the COM
munity in which he was reared and
is looked up to by those who knew
him in the days of his obscurity.
Myers was born near Ashland, in
the neighborhood in which the mil
lionaire Studebaker brothers of South
Bend, Ind, spent their early years.
There he dreamed and built aircastles
as he followed the plow or pithced hay
on his fathers farm.
During the panic of 1907 the Myers
plant ran steadily, and so did other in
dustries in which the Myers brothers
are interested, and Ashland workers
were paid cash right along.
F. E. Myers is sixty-one-a little
over that, in fact-but you wouldn't
think it. He makes companions Of
his employees, some of whom have
been with him more than thirty years.
Strike troubles in the Myers plants
are unknown.
