Don’t drink the “Pocahontas

Seven doctors in Bellevue hospi

past six months. The doctor is

The Waycross Daily Journal is
▼ery much riled over the press
comments about a man sleeping
In that town for twenty four hours
on a stretch. It probably objets
to having Waycross put in the
same class with Charleston. «
The Liberty County Herald
thinks .that “Senator Terrell”
would sound all right. Joe will
■over have that handle to his
mho. He is an ex now, or soon
will be, and probably of the
permanent type. /
Governor elect Hoke Smith re
turns from Europe with assurances
that Georgia can obtain a consi
derable number of very desirable
immigrants from among the Ger
man people living in Austria and
Southern Russia.
These people, he states, are
extremely dissatisfied with the
hard conditions ander which they
Jive. Their earnings are nominal,
their existence largely a bare and
comfortless one, their future holds
no promise of brighter days.
There is nothing to hold them to
the land where they are, every
thing that the South offers is brigh
ter and better and more promising
than anything they now have or
can ever hope to have.
Speaking of these people the
Governor-elect says:
“The German farmer, whether
in the fartherland or in Austria,
is a successful producer of small
crops of grain and grasses, of beef,
mutton, batter and cheese. They
are also line frnit growers. They
still speak the German language.
They, as a rule, are members of
the Lutheran church. They are
a fine type of people, industrious
sober and law abiding. Quite a
number are emigrating to Germany
proper, where conditions are more
favorable.
“They are already to leave
Anstria and Southern Russia be
cause of the mere nominal pay
which they receive for their work,
and because of their inability to
become land owners.
“As farmers, they show a mark
ed capacity for improving their
lands. The limited amount of
land that any one can control and
high rents keep the farmer in
conditions ol poverty.”
It is apparent to anyone that if
these people are as they have been
represented to Governor-elect
Smith—for, of course, he can
hardly speak from any personal
knowledge, bnt mast bring his
advices at second hand—they are
the very type thftt are needed in
Snmter County.
There is no other county in the
state more adapted to frnits,
grains to poultry, to cattle, as well
as to tobacco and cotton. Lends
are reasonably cheap, there are
still irany thousands of acres
entirely uncnltivated and nntold
thousands poorly cultivated be
cause of tbe absence of adequate
labor. If Sumter wishes immi
grants, and it nndonbtedly does
if they are of the right sort, this
is a golden opportunity not to be
lost. 8nmter should . awaken
advertise its advantages and
opportunities, and reap a harvest
of citizens who will work zealously
for its np building while Identify
ing themselves with its people, its
interests and its aspirations.

The Richmond Dispatch well
says that he “is the friend of the
people who encourages, incites
and inspires them to cultivate the
spirit of indepdence and manly
self reliance; not he who counsels
them to look [to the government
tor everything.”
The Philadelphia Ledger says:
“It is fruitless to preach abstract
merality and brotherly love, or to
inveigh; against race prejudice.
Race prejudice^ a fact. It is not
necessarily an assumption ot
superiority; it is a sense of
difference.”
Secretary Taft [is expected to
break his long [silence with a
speech in Oklahoma on June C,
when the first Republican state
convention assembles. As a pro
bable candidate forjthe presidency
bis remarks will attract national
attention
The politicians boosting Roose-
Telt for a thlrd.term'are generally
supposed to be trying to square
themselves with the Roosevelt
admirers among their constitu
ents. No that they love[Roosevelt,
bnt that they love their, jobs and
wants to retain them.
Tbe Houston Post holds that
the old time democracy—‘liberty’
old time religion—is yet good
enough for men who believe in the
republic of the fathers. It is
needed iu the nation, it is needed
in the State.
Tho St. Louis Globe Democrat
says that Roosevelt is a rooster in
war, a dove in peace, and a sing
ing canary in the hearts of his
countrymen.
The Savannah Press hopes that
the Georgia railroad commission
will not get to working a spirit of
vidietiveness. More likely to be
spirit of politics.
