said Mr.. Mower agriculture was the
whole means of livelihood for the farm
ers and for time they were in desperate
circumstances.
I'm many instances large families had
become ill from eating wet corn and
other vegetables which had become un-
healthy on account of the flood waters
and heavy rains. Residents of other coun-

condition far more difficult to counter
act than his physical alienship, and all,
most inaccessible to the existent agencies'

During the period from 1897 to 1912, 2
said Mr.. Erit, (which witnessed the highr
tide of Italian immigration to the United,

Mr. Erit said in conclusion. "Along thel'

Clanton, August 16.-(Special)-T
Chiffon county board of county commits
sioners have been in session for three
days, and during the time much impor-
tant business concerning road improve
ment was attended to.
There are a large number of convicts
being used in improving the Birming-
ham Montgomery public highway. These
men are being used in filling in places
that were slightly washed during the late
storm.
A number of pipes used at places where
water crossed the highway are to be
changed by substituting three-foot pipes
in places where two-foot pipes were here
before used.
The commissioners care determined to
keep this section of the highway in first
class order through Chiffon county. as
they expect that the Jackson highway
will be routed through this section.

properly discharge it's obligations. Once
the newcomers were made acquainted
with the realities of American citizenship,
as evidenced principally by the Constitu-
ton and the Declaration of independence
they would be more than eager to pre-
pare themselves for admittance to the
franchise in this the greatest democracy
the world has ever known.
''Unfortunate ly in the past Mr.. Erit
said, aside from a few sporadic efforts
little has been done in this direction along
sound lines. The immigrant after leav-
ing Europe with more enthusiasm than
currency and rosy dreams of fortune
awaiting him in America, was met with
oisillusion almost as soon as he passed
the Statue of Liberty in New York har-
Dor, or got through Castle Garden in the
old days or Ellis Island in our more mod
ern days and times. The experiences in
the great city in most cases were not
such as to give him a very flattering i'm
preston. His trials and tribulatons in
effort to get employment were disheart-
ening, both as to obtaining the much de.
sired job at all, and receiving the gen.
erous pay he had been led to believe
would be awaiting him by many who had
their own axes to grind in doing so.
Likewise, his views and experiences as to
the administration of Justice and the en-
forcement of law and order, which as
often as not the newcomer obtained from
the policemen, the precinct houses and
that Ito him) high temple of justice. the
police court. While this state of affairs
existed principally in New York. with
varying conditions it prevailed all ovef
the country, especially in the crowded
tenement sections of the larger cities. Is
it to be wondered at that the immigrants
in the great majority of cases were far
from a success, to themselves or to the
country? The encouragement of the
immigrant caused by the economic and
social barriers he encountered, combined
with the neglect, or worse, of those with
whom he came in contact, who had the
good fortune of having had some one
else to go through the pioneer period for
