the demand of the United States de
partment of agriculture, in order tC
raise more corn, it is criticized fol
reducing its cotton crop and starving
the world for cotton.
IF, after nearly starving its cotton
growers for the last half-century, il
succeeds, by virtue of present eco
nomic conditions, in getting full
price for cotton, it is denounced as
selfish and 'unpatriotic'
"If negro laborers on southern cot
ton plantations were paid sufficient
" high wages to match the factory
wages paid to them in the North
and West, as some of the South's
critics claim should be done, then
cotton would have to command 20
cents a pound, but very much more
than that to enable the South to
raise it and live. But if, year in and
year out, the South had to receive
more than 25 cents for it's cotton
in order to pay adequate wages to
its farm hands, there would be a
howl on the part of the critics of
the South, who would berate this
section for demanding such prices
for a world needed product"
The foregoing is very interesting,
and especially the last paragraph
with reference to the price OFFS cents
per pound for cotton. One thing the
war has done-as the Chronicle has
mentioned previously-is to revolu-
tionize southern farming and par
ticularly cotton farming.
We have seen the end of low-priced
labor and low-priced lands in the
South, and this means the end of the
low-priced products, because without
teb fundamental resources procurable
at low cost, it is impossible to produce
a cheap product, and therefore, the
South may be expected to take its
rightful position along with the other
leading agricultural communities of
the world.-Augusta Chronicle.

largely against the South.

South because it has not paid negro
laborers wages sufficiently high to
keep them from emigrating North

WHAT REV. j. w. LEE TOLD
ST. LOUIS CONGREGATION ABOUT
ILLINOIS NEGRO MASSACRE
(st. Louis Globe-Democrat,)

(St. Louis Globe1DemOcraI.)
Never again can one section Of
the country select and set apart any
other section as barbarians to great
err extent than other places. We
have been having lynchings in the
south, and lynchings in the north,
but no part of our country can say to
any other part, Physician, heal thy
self All parts are guilty under the
stres of mob hate of giving away to
the vilest passions of which human
nature is capable.
1.-The sad thing about this spirit
, of lawlessness and lynching, and muir
der, is found in the fact that is us
ually practiced against the negro, who,
without his consent, was brought to
this country, who lived in state of
slavery until 1865, and who was made
a contribution to the agricultural
wealth of the country perhaps great
err than any other race of American
people, and yet he is selected as the
object upon which to vent American
lawlessness..
There never was an anarchist
among the negroes. They believe in
observing the law, and yet anarchists
like Emma Goldman can stir up Sc
dition, urge insurrection against the
government, and go practically I'M
molested, while the poor negroes in
East st. Louis, for no other crime
than they wanted to work, were pounc-
ed upon, many of them beaten to
death, their homes burned, and they
themselves driven from their homes
by hyenas and tigers in human form.
Father a Stakeholder
'My father was STAKEHOLDER. l
was brought up on plantation near
Atlanta Ga. When my father join
ed the Confederate army he left my
mother and his children on the plan
tation with no other protection than
such as the negroes could give. This
was true with the families of slave
holders all overtime south. And yet,
while the soldiers of the northern
armies were fighting to free the ne
groes and the negroes knew it, there
has never been a case reported where
the negroes failed to be loyal and
true to the families of the southern
soldiers. The fidelity of the negroes
to the defenseless women and child
rem in the south during a war, waged
to determine whether they should be
kept in slavery, has no parallel in
history. All the meanness the ne.
groes practice today, they have
learned from mean white folks.

The trouble in East St, Louis went
deeper than the surface-in the begin
nings Of the awful rioting. East st
Louis has been for years such wide
open town, there has been so muct
lawlessness, there have been SO many
crimes of all sorts which the officers
did not prosecute, that there was gen
eral disregard for law, disrespect fol
ordinances, scorn at authority-ant
hence a very large element capable o
doing the horrible things which hav,
stained that community for all time t,

WILSON AND THE SENATE.

REGARDLESS of how his sympathie'
NAV be inclined as between Sen
ator Hardwick and the administra
ton. the average interested observer
of the politics of the federal judge
shin situation at the Washington
end of the line will hardly fail tc
hold to the opinion that the Senate
treated the President with extreme
discourtesy in its handling of the
Thomas nomination.
The Senate is reported to have
acted unanimously in its adoption
of the unanimous report of the ju-
dietary committee. There is there
fore no questioning the fact that
the senators knew their own minds.
They were already familiar with the
nature of the differences between
Senator Hardwick and the President,
and their action was not as impul(-
sive "a strong word to employ in
referring to "the most august legis-
lative body in the world') as it
would at first blush appear.
But it will occur to those who
read the report of the Senate's &C
ton that it was discourtesy horde :
ing on rudeness to reject the II Jml-
nation of Judge Thomas without
waiting to receive from the White
House the papers which in due time
would have been transmitted 20 The
Senate through the usual channels.
Because the case was an unusual
one. and because of the pecul'ar
circumstances under which the
name of Judge Thomts had been
sent to the Senate, there was rea
son to anticipate that the President
would send with the papers in the
case something more than the Gus
tomary endorsements of the nominee
Perhaps we exaggerate the i'm
portance of the whole matter
though there seems to be in it fue
for a stubborn fire of opposition t.
the President-or at least of lacl
of cooperation with him-which has
been smouldering in the Senate fol
some time.
The President, as the country
knows, has been striving to spul
Congress to action on urgent legis-
lation that is pending, and that il
sorely needed to enable the countr!
to vigorously prosecute the war. HI
/ has not been conspicuously successful
thus far, but the sympathies of th'
people have been largely on his sid
as he has endeavored to inject ;
little ginger into the deliberatel!
moving legislative branch of the gov
eminent. The Senate, in particular
has not met the President in tina
cordial spirit which the ccuntr!
hoped for, and the manner in which i
disposed of the Georgia judgeship
case is not calculated to improve
the situation 1t is evidence of
state of affairs as between the Presi
dent and the Senate that is far from
being reassuring Albany Herald.

are not to blame, as the best PEG
pie in the south were never to blame
for the lynchings in that section
The whole situation, north and south
is due to the fact that politicians
without conscience, have been per
mitted to occupy places of authority
and they have deliberately excused
dives and places of immoral resort,
if they have not even fostered them,
and through the influence of such
places there have grown up among
us class of people that are menace
to orderly government and to Ameri.
can civilization itself.
Need New Civilization.
In view of all this, it must be clear
that what we need in the United
States today is new civilization
in which there must be the silen
reassertion of the principle of author
ity-of an authority purged and puri-
fled by the rejection of all unworthy
elements, an authority based On the
reality of eternal laws. We must
bring back into human life that
recognition of the value and sacred
ness of life, that we have more or
less lost in the past fifty years.
1.-THE mark of western civilization
has been working in one direction
as individualism, in another as scep-
ticism and in another as materialism.
All this has resulted in the question
ing of authoity in every department
of life. The idea has been the liberty
of the individual in condistinction
from the freedom of the whole. There
must come to us. the the realiza-
ton that there is, after all, moral
and unless this does come there can
never be accomplished the re-estab-
lishment, within the social order of
our nation, that authority Necessary
to preserve us from anarchy and
chaos

WOMEN DOING MEMS WORK.

One of the most striking results of
the great war in Europe. is the ex-
tent to which women are doing the
work of men. Travellers to England
and France report that practically ev-
cry ahle-bodied man Is in uniform
and women by thousands are engaged
in doing mems work-acting as con-
ductors and drivers on the cars and
doing all sorts of heavy work besides.
This shows unexpected possibilities
in what has been mistakenly called
the weaker sex. Women are subject
to ailments which men do not have.
and when so ailing become weak, help
less sufferers. But a remedy has been
found. For forty years. Lydia f..
Pinkhams Vegetable Compound has
been making such women well and
