THE HUGUENOTS OF
=. SOUTH CAROLINA
1Spartanburg Journal.)


Last week Mr.. James S. Gilbert, of
Abbeville County, was in Spartan
burg on a brief visit to some of his
relatives who are living in this part
of the State. He is direct descend
ant of one of the most distinguished
members of the Huguenot Colony
which settled in Abbeville District to
escape religious persecution in their
native France. When he was asked if
there were many descendants of the
Abbeville Huguenots surviving in the
i old District, he said there were many
and among them quite number who
bore the names of the devoted folk
who found asylum in Abbeville-the
Gilbert, the Bouchillons, the Gille-
beaus, the Moragnes, the LeRoys,
the GOWNS; and they have not lost
the characteristics of the fathers,
and would die as readily today for
principle as their ancestors far be-
yond the seas. Mr.. Gilbert was one
of the bravest of the brave in the
War Between the States and will
carry with him to the other world
the honorable scars won by him in
the great struggle for Southern in
dependence. The Columbia State
yesterday printed this interesting
story:
"a. S. Salley, Jr. Secretary of the
Historical Commission of South
Carolina, has been appointed a
member of the Huguenot Tercente-
nary Commission for the celebration
of the 30Oth anniversary of the
founding of New York by Belgian
Huguenots under the Dutch West In
dies Company in 1923.

ampton, Pa, has been authorized by
the commission on relations with
France and Belgium of the FEEDER

Christ in America and the Hugaenot

reach the cotton field they move a.
round very little as long as they can
find an ample supply of unpunctured
squares for their use, but just. as
soon as the infestation becomes suf-
ficiently heavy to puncture practic-
ally all squares these weevils start
to move in search of fresh pastures.
In an ordinary season this means that
YOU usually have only the weevils
bred in your own cotton to contend
with until some time from the latter
part of July to the last of August,
depending on the locality. This year,
however, this movement of migration
of weevils will probably start sever
al weeks earlier than usual. Conse-
quently, it will not only be necessary
for you to start poisoning earlier to
control your own infestation, but you
should also expect that, before you
have had time to mature the fruit
which your plants have set during
this period of protection, you will be-
gin to experience an immigration OF
weevils from imprisoned cotton. OF
course, this condition would not arise
if every one in a district was sue
cessfully poisoning his cotton; but
this will not be the case this year,
and just as soon as all squares in the
imprisoned crops are punctured the
migration to the poisoned fields will
commence. This means that every
day large crop of new weevils. will
move into these poisoned fields, and
it is going to take continuous, thor
ough poisoning to protect to matur-
ity the crop which has been allowed
to set by the earlier applications"

ANDREW AND JOHN.

Col. Andrew J. Bethea and Hon.
John E. Swearingen remind US some
what of the few lines Judge McGow-
an used to repeat to the jury con-
cerning the snake which crossed the
road, and which cleft the people
still in doubt" whether it was "com-
ing in or going out" Only it seems
to US that Andrew is trying to "come
in" while John E. is trying to stay
in.
If these two patriots who were
willing to be sacrificed for the sake
of the country's welfare felt that
they were "called" to run for Gov
ernor, we are at loss to understand
why they have not needed the cal
and also run. The fact that they
have heard another voice indicates
that they are just office-seekers like
the rest of the democrats.
Or maybe they were afraid to take
their chances after it became a
known fact that John T. was in the
race again. Does either of these gen.
tlemen belong to the "system?" If
so, they should have stayed in to de-
fend it. There is a difference be-
tween running away in order to run
another day and getting elected.
