France forbids slavery in all her Afri-

Gus droves OF human cattle are driven
into Marakech by caravans from Souss
and Tablet the slave trade will con-
tinue.
The imported slaves are readily
sold. either openly in the market or
secretly. The slave market Is situated
in the quarter OF the aularines. or
druggists. Nothing Is more pitiful than
to see this slave market, where sales
are made in bright daylight under the
protection Of Allah.
Imagine an enormous open square,
surrounded by a large number OF
boxes. In the center Is a covered gal
lery, under which the vendors stand
in rainy weather. A little before the
opening time Of the market the slave
traders bring in their human merchan'
disc. leaving the actual sale to COM
missioners, dellals.
Slave Mart Opened With Prayer.
Women. children. youth and grown
men are driven promiscuously into the
boxes. In most cases they make no
attempt at resistance. They know
full well that they have nothing to
say, and that they will be sold whether
they like 1t or not. Little by little the
square is filed up by purchasers.
Everybody tries to get the best place
to obtain a good view Of the slaves. At
last the dellals arrive.
The market is opened with a solemn
prayer. Standing near the entrance

When the invocation is over, each
dellal takes charge Of the lot OF slaves
intrusted to him. A hasty toilet Ia
made, consisting in removing the most
filthy rags and replacing them by neat

value Of the ware. and the sale be-

Not only are we rendering the soil
poorer, but at the same time we are
depriving them of the opportunity Of
securing that education which will
be doubly necessary to them in order
that they may make living from the
soils that we have already exhausted.
The fields OF our beautiful Southland
are today filled with children, each
one bending his little back and work

let those little backs grow straight
and strong in play and have those
eyes and those brains employed in the
schoolhouse that is now empty.
We owe it to those children that we
shall leave them strong bodies and
hands and minds trained and fitted
to the best of our ability to fight life's
battle. With these things we can rest
assured that they will win for them.

WILL CONE BE A CANDIDATE?

A few days ago Houston was hon.
ored by visit from the Hon. Cone
johnson of Tyler. Physically Mr..
johnson seemed In splendid trim, but
whether or not he is in training for
next years political handicap. we did
not learn. When asked by States
Topics representative, in the lobby OF
the Rice Hotel, how he regarded the
political atmosphere, he said he
thought 1t little murky." Further
than this he did not express himself
politically; and when someone suggest
ed that 1T was no longer question
of the biggest man for State office, but
rather the littlest," he did nothing
more than smile and said he was go
ing up on the roof, where it was al
ways cool and the atmosphere fine"
(Of course he had reference to the
Rice Hotels Roof Garden) While in
Austin recently Mr.. Johnson expressed
himself as favorable to a proposition
which he thinks would be happy So
luton of prohibition. His propo-
sition, according to the Ballanger Led
ger, is Ito draft Statewide prohibit
ton amendment that would give the
people in each county the right to vote
for the sale of beer and light wines
within it's confines, in the event the
prohibition amendment was adopted,
and cut out what he calls real booze
In other words, it would be a vote to
cut booze out of Texas and then let
the voters in each county say whether
beer should be sold in the county"
The Ledger then adds: "de has some
followers who have advocated such a
law, and there are many people who
see no evil in beer, but are opposed to
whiskey. 1t is nothing more than what
one might call compromise" Mr..
Johnson's proposition might prove a
solution OF the question, but why is it
necessary to first commit the State to
Statewide prohibition before putting
it in effect? While Mr.. Johnson had
the appearance of man who wouldn't
mind little political scrap, yet he
didn't 80 much as intimate that he
would be a candidate for State office
next year, although he did express
as being strongly in favor of
"a good man for Cover
nor State Topics.

DON'T KEEP THE CHILDREN OUT
OF SCHOOL TO PICK COTTON.

Any man can easily prepare and
plant more land in cotton than he
can pick; and without the women and
children to help him pick it the acre
age in that plant would necessarily
have to be greatly reduced But when
we keep the children out of school to
help save the cotton crop we are COM
hitting double crime against them.

THE OLD FARM AND TIT NEW.

About six years ago, in company
with d friend who was in quest OF land,
walked over Piedmont farm. The
way to the place led up out of much
filled ravine, then on up an enlarged
gulley that served as the road to the
house. Thorns and blackberry bushes
plucked at our hats as we passed
along and through the little open
spaces between the field pines. the
broomstraw was trying to hide the
CALLED spots.
Further on, the brush-grown garden
spot, with its dildpidated fence, spoiled
the natural beauty of the home
grounds lovely yet in spite of the
implanted house with its broken doors
and windows.
The scale and grubs were holding
high carnival in the old family or
chard, and as we passed on over the
farm everything spoke all too strongly
of the poverty that follows in the wake
of soil robbing. The little patches of
Tobacco only tended to emphasize the
hopelessness of the decay that every
where abounded
A few days ago, with another friend
again visited this place which for
about three years now has been re-
ceiving treatment from man who
loves the soil and who realizes the re-
sponsibility that goes with its hand
ling. We drove along a carefully
graded road that dipped gradually to
the modest bridge, spanning the turb-
ulent little creek. A five-foot woven
wire fence, guarded pretty field Of
clover and herdsgrass from the care
less trsspassers. Trotting rapidly
along the smooth road our rig passed
fine large field OF tobacco, then more
fields of clover and grass, and finally
my friend exclaimed, what a pretty
homer"
And indeed it is pretty home,
modest and unpretentious, but COM

and grand cherry trees. thanked by the
well-kept garden, and backed by the
beauty of "the everlasting hills" Good
cows grazed in the lespedeza pasture
at the rear and to the right fine stacks
of hay stood as sentinels, proclaiming
the return of prosperity that surely
follows in the wake of the grass and
clover that with their millions of fib-
rous roots bind the soil particles to-
gether and scotch for the farmer who
is bent on raising the soil out of the
slough of despair into which reckless
soil robbing has reduced it.
AS we drove on more fields of clover
and herdsgrass came into view, then
goodly field of corn. and another to-
bacco. A sparkling spring stream was
crossed and thanking it on either side
was another modern pasture; while
on the opposite slope. where six years
ago rose tier on tier of gullies and
rock-infested pine patches, the hands
of this good farmer and his son had
