TUB HEN SOUTH
We have received a New Yorkpnly
Iicntion called the “New South.’
It'D 'printed' (n German and dcclar-
e* ita object to be to' induce emi
gration tolEl? country. We make
this nottoe only to'any what we
have aaid before, that we bave no
•ySipathy whatever with the pur-
poee of the publication. It foreign,
era will come here upon an inde
pendent baaie, paying their own
way and selecting, tbeir own bomea
and following their calling, like onr
own people, we are prepared to
welcome them; bot we are opposed
th offering them any manner ot
bounty or other inducement than
snob a*i» offered' our own people
to move from one Slate to another,
to get them here. This country is
now fuir of people who are strug
gling hard for a mere living, and
their condition will not not be im
proved by bringing to their shores
from abroad hundreds oi ship loads
of foreigners In like, or worse con-
dlllon. We have never taken kind,
ly to the term “New South” nor to
the ideas intended to be conveyed
by it, and our aversion to it will be
intensified if it is to be vitaticed'to
a greater activity, by the importa.
tlon of emigrants from abroad.—
Columbna Times.
Our neighbor is evidently labor,
ing under a mistake in sapposlng
that tbo publication alluded to ad.
vooates the importation ot pan
pers into this country. It almply
proposes to do for the South what
otherpubllcations are doing for the
West—calling the attention of for
eign emigrants to the resources
and advantages of the South as a
place of settlement. These emi
grants bring with them enough
money, generally, to buy a little
farm and improve It, and are not
dependent upe'n bharity. As a class
they are industrious and frugal apd
make peaceable and law-abiding
oituens. The Norwegians and
Swedes generally seek the colder
dime of the Northwest, and Wis
consin, Minnesota and Dakotp are
largely peopled with them. The
Southern States would especially
snlt the Germans, French, English
and iHsh, ai the climate is more
like tljat of their native country,
and more effort should be made
than baa been made heretofore to
Induce them to settle upon our
cheap lands, as it is an Industrious
population that makes a country
rich. It is not neacssary that ady
bounty should be ottered, as our
cheap lands and genial olimate are
sufficient' Inducements, when once
made known to them.
As to tbs term “New South,"we
esn see no objection to It, when ita
meaning it tint it is entering npen
a new era of growth and prosperity.
The old order of things baring
passed a way,, it is beet to adapt
ou|*elvt*}jQ add lm-.
prove it by every means in our
power, Slavenr,whioh meant large
plantatlbna, having beeb done away
with, the large plantattona should
bo done away with also, and a new
era of email farm* and earafnl cul
tivation be inaugurated.
President Cleveland hat Written
a letter to Geo. Wm. Curtis, de
claring himself In favor of civil ser
vice reform, but be gives Republi
can official* who put In more work
In politics than in business the fot
lowing telr warning;
There it a class of government
position! which are not within the
letter of the olvil service statute,
but wbtob are so disconnected with
the poliey of an administration that
the removal therefrom of the pie
sent incumbents, la my opinion,
shonid not be made during the term
for wblob they were appointed,
sole!; cn partisan grounds, and fbr
the purpose of patting in their pla
ces those who were In political ac
cord with the appointing power.
But many now holding enoh posi
tions have forfeited all just claim
the retention, because they have
need their places for party purpos
es, in disregard of their doty to
the people,and because, instead of
being decent public servants, they
have proved themselves oflenslve
partisans aid unscrupulous mani
pulators of local party manage
ment The lesson ot the poet
should be unlearned, and aneh offi
ciate, as well as their successors,
should be taught that efficiency, fit
ness and devotion to duty are the
eonditiena of their continual!oe in
public place, abd that the quiet
end unobetruive exercise of indl-
-vtdoal political righta is the rear-
onable measure of their parly
•mice.
