With two weeks more <>f such
work a* Judge Martin and tin
jurors of Montgomery county have 1
just finished, somebody will hiik
picion that they really mean to
break up some of the lawlessness
that has bteii like a Idot upon tin
fair name of old Montgomery.
Montgomery county is making
progress m the right direction.
The work <>f the superior court
just held shows if unmistakably.
Many things that have disgraced
our fair name us a county are be
ing brought to a focus. Let the
good work go on.
When one of the little papers
that has pulled its democracy on
wrong side out gets to buzzing
around the heels of the standard i
old Macon Telegraph, it reminds
us of the little green cow (lies wo I
have seen trying to tickle the
heels of a three-year-old mule.
Wo realize the need of more la
bor in the south, but we need a
class of immigrants that know
more about shoving the plow and
wielding the hoe than they do
about throwing bombs and lifting
things with dynamite.

jury of Montgomery county, pub
lished in this paper, show that the
honorable hotly had something
like tax equalization on the mind.

BACKWARD PROGRESS.
w 0 saw a farmer, no a man who
claims to be a farmer (but lie
a'n't) hauling grass out of town 5
to feed his mules on, to make 10c
cotton. I/Ot’s figure a little: an
acre of land will make from 51 tos
tuns of hay. Hay is worth any
where from $lB to S2O per ion. i
At $2(5 an acre of land will make
dead enry SIOO worth of good hav.
Can you make that much bv
planting it in cotton. No you
cannot and you know it. Let
every farmer in Crenshaw plant
one acre in velvet beans, or take
peas, Millet and corn mix it to
gether aud sow <>n one acre. Sub
soil vour laud well, fertilize and
harrow it until it is smootlie and
well pulverized. It will prove a
mortgage lifter and will aid ma
terially in raising the price of cot
ton. Let me l>< g you to try it
once.—Laverne Journal,
DOES THE SOUTH WANT THEM
There is much complaint in the!
- fekouth from time to time of the
unreliability of negro labor. '
There is good ground for the com
plaint, but it is sometimes wiser
to bear the evils we have than to
fly to others with which wo are!
unacquainted. The efforts to nt- j
t rucl foreign immigration to the!
South should be restrained by ;
'caution and guided by good judg
ment.. We w ant to open no new
Pandora’s box in the South. So
| far it has escaped the evils which
| foreign immigration has brought
to other sections of this country.
The South boasts of its pure I
American blood and its American
ism. It should have 110 desire to j
make vain a boast that is now j
justifiable.
; A large population is nil well
enough, but a crowded population
is not desirable. Wo shall surely
come to European Conditions in
this respect soon enough. Indus
trious and reliable laborers are to
be desired, but they are not the
only desideratum in the sociul, po
litical and industrial economy of |
a community. When it comes to
securing them through foreign im
migration they should be selected 1
with care and caution.
The most desirable immigrants
- I
are German, Scotch, Irish and En
glish. Swedes are usually indus
trious, frugal and tractable. Ital-j
ians are industrious and thrifty, |
as a rule, but they are quick to |
strike, to raise disturbances, top
lmrbor the feud spirit. We want
no Mafia or “Mack Hand” socie
ties in the South. As a rule the
most desirable Italians do not
1
come to this country.
The great bulk of the so called!
“Italians” who come over here to
cut throats, throw dynamite, and
conduct labor riots and assassina- 1
tion fraternities are nothing more
than the degenerate progeny of !
the Asiatic hordes which, long 1
centuries ago, overran tho shores
of the Mediterranean and were the
pirates, the spoliators, and tho ,
mercenaries of those bloody ages.
