} Undesirable Emigrants i
j An Additional Means Suggested for Their 1
* Exclusion J
1 By H. M. Gescheidt •
UCH has been said and written about the Black Hand and
other undesirable emigrants, but no remedy has been sug-
Mgested whereby this class of undesirable persons can be
prevented from entering our country. I think I can suggest
a remedy.
Congress should enact a law making it compulsory for a
person emigrating from a foreign country to this country to
produce a certificate from the place whence he comes, du y
attested by one of the highest officials of said place, where
he has either resided or been domiciled, that he is a person of good character
and has been self-supporting and never been convicted of a crime; and a ter
6uch certificate has been given to the emigrant and presented here to the Im
migration commissioners or officials of the United States where he inten s
to or does land, the same shall be duly reaffirmed by the oath and signature
of such person that the facts contained in the certificate are true, then and
then only shall he or she be permitted to land.
If it is otherwise discovered or ascertained that such declaration is false,
then such oath so taken by said person shall be deemed perjury under the
laws of the district in which the emigrant lands or makes his residence or
domicile, and he shall be prosecuted by the criminal branch of the United
States District Court tn the district in which he lands or makes his residence
or domicile, and he shall be punished in accordance with the laws in such case
made and provided.
The mere deportation of an undesirable emigrant is insufficient to check
the evil results that follow by emigrants that are undesirable being permitted
to land. The deportation can still exist and will not be affected by
the law as above suggested or a similar law that might be enacted by Congress.
Any person, whether a born or naturalized citizen or an alien, cannot find
fault with a law of this character, because such a law will elevate the country
from which the emigrant comes as well as elevate the emigrant himself in
the community where he intends to make his residence or domicile.
This letter is not written with the aim to any particular country, because
there are good and bad from every country.
THE COTTON ACREAGE
Probably About Five Per Cent
Decrease.
GRASS GROWING IN FIELDS
Excessive Rainfall Has Retarded Growth
of Plant—Supply of Labor
Fairly Adequate.
New Orleans, La. —The Times-Dem
ocrat, in publishing its first report of
the cotton crop of ,1909, summarized
conditions as fololws:
“There has bee* a moderate de
crease in acreage—probably about 3
per cent.
“Taking the belt as a whole, the
condition of the plant leaves much
to be desired.
“The supply of labor is fairly ade
quate, as a rule, though there is a
good deal of complaint in some sec
tions.”
Among the reports from the cotton
belt of unuusal features is the fol
lowing from Austin, Texas:
"That central Texas is without a
cotton crop, with half of the month
of June gone by, may be a state of
affairs difficult to imagine, yet such
is the case, and to farmers of this
section it is a sad reality.
“This is generally admitted through
out the rural precincts, and it is be
lieved that the same conditions exist
throughout the state and most of the
southwest. The state department of
agriculure in this city confirms this
statement. In fact, there is so little
cotton in the ground that a com
parison between the acreage of this
year and that of last is next to im
possible. About the only cotton well
grown at the present time has been
raised almost exclusively by the ‘hot
house’ method.”
Memphis. Tenn. —The Commercial
Appeal, reviewing crop conditions,
says: Excessive rainfall has caused
much grass in cotton fields east of
the Mississippi river.
The weather of the last week was
fair and hot, however, and much prog
ress was made In cultivation.
Another week of bright, warm
weather is needed to put the crop in
good shape. Worst reports are re
ceived from Mississippi, where until
last week, the rains were very heavy,
washing the uplands and flooding the
lowlands. The acreage in the state
has decreased as a result.
West of the Mississippi the crop is
in fair condition, reports from Okla
homa and Texas being excellent. The
rainfall west of Arkansas and Louisi
ana, except along the coast of Texas
has not been excessive. Parts of Tex
as is deficient*in moisture, but the
plants looks well and Is growing.
The plant generally is smaller than
last year, but where not overrun with
grass or submerged, is healthy.
Showers in Texas and Oklahoma
would be beneficial, while fair weath
er is needed elsewhere.
MISSISSIPPI FUED.
Two Killed and Four Injured in Street
Battle at Meadville, Miss.
Meadville, Miss. Two men are
dead, two were perhaps fatally wound
ed and two others slightly injured in
a bloody street battle here, waged by
parties to a bitter feud that had been
previously marked with tragedy. As
, a result of the affair, feeling here
runs high, and state troops were rush
ed to Meadville from Brookhaven tc
guard against possibility of rioting.
Those killed in the affray were Dr.
A. M. Newman, clerk of the Chancery
court of Franklin county, and Silas;
G. Reynolds. Dr. Lenox Newman, a
son of the slain man, is bjelieved to
have fatally injured, and Herbert Ap
plewhite, an attorney, may not recov
er as the result of his wounds. Em
mett Newman, another son, was snot
in the leg. The three were taken to
Natchez for medical attention after
having been formally placed under ar
rest. Two men, named Boyd and
Parr, alleged to have been involved in
the affray, were slight wounded, but
escaped, and have not been captured.
L. P. Pricahrd, a brother of Cor
nelius Prichard, whom Dr. Newman
killed seven weeks ago, was arrested
and charged with complicity in the
tragedy.
The killing of Prichard by Newman
was the first bloodshed to mark a feud
that had existed between the two
men, relatives and friends, for many
months. This bitter factionalism hail
its inception in a political campaign
in which Newman and Prichard were
opposing candidates.
Newman was tried a few weeks ago
for Prichard's murder, and was acquit
ted. This served to arouse even more
bitter feeling among the relatives and
friends of Prichard and the New
man family and faction.
The fight occurred almost on the
same spot where Prichard was slain.
Numerous volleys were exchanged,
but it is apparently a matter of doubt,
as to who fired the fatal shots.
MARK TWAIN’S ADVICE 10 GIRLS.
“Don't Smoke; Don’t Drink; Don’t
Marry—To Excess.’’
Baltimore, Md. —Mark Twain came
to Baltimore to talk to the girl grad
uates of St. Timothy’s school.
Following Edward F. Martin of New
York, he said that as Mr. Martin had
advised them as to what they should
do, he could only tell them what they
should not do.
“There are three things, young la
dies, I advise you not to do. Don't
smoke —that is, don’t smoke to excess.
I am 73 1-2 years old and I have
smoked only 73 years of that time.
“Don’t drink —that is, don’t drink
to excess.
“Don’t marry—l mean to excess."

p Sugar Satisfies the
k Inner Man c
Ey Dr. Woods Hutchinson €
— IVE children plenty of pure sugar, taffy and butter-scotcn,
Gand they'll have little need of cod liter oii.
In short, sugar is, after meat, bread and butter, easily
our next most important and necessary food. You can put
======= the matter to a test very easily. Just leave off the pie,
pudding and other desserts at your lunch or midday dinner.
You’ll be astonished to find how quickly you’ll feel “empty”
again and how “unfinished’’ the meal will seem. You can’t
get any working man to accept a dinner pail without pie in
it. And he’s absolutely right. It is a significant fact that the free lunch coun
ters run in connection with bars, furnish every imaginable thing except
sweets. Even the restaurants and lunch grills attaclfed to saloons or bars of
ten refuse to serve desserts of any sort. They know their business—the more
sugar and sweets a man takes at a meal, the less alcohol he wants. Converse
ly, nearly every drinking man will tell you that he has lost his taste ror
sweets. The more candy a nation consumes, the less alcohol.
The United States government buys pure candy by the ton and ships it
to the Philippines to be sold at cost to the soldiers in the canteens. All men
crave it in the tropics, and the more they get of ft the less “vino” and whiskey
they want.
In fine, the prejudice against sugar is born of Puritanism and stinginess,
equal parts. Whatever children cry for must be bad for them, according to
the pure doctrine of original sin; besides, it costs money.
I The Element of Interest |
l fy Waldo P. Warren
Cp
♦ T has been said that there is only one interesting thing in
!£ £ the world, and that is life; and that all other things are in
♦ Tf + teresting only as they bear relation to life.
4 A $ This undoubtedly explains why certain advertisers
+ *> make frequent use of pictures which, In addition to the ad
♦ vertised article, contain some suggestion of human life. It
t**l M ?t’?*;**?*; 4 * is the radiator and the child, the soap and the child, the
flour and the woman, the phonograph and the family. Even
a human hand holding a tube of tooth-paste Is considered
more interesting than a facsimile of the package alone. An advertiser of
men’s clothing often introduces the picture of women, knowing that the
thought of their presence instinctively raises the standards of dress. Some
advertisers who wish to appeal strongly to women do not neglect any reason
able opportunity to introduce a picture of a baby, knowing that it will in
stinctively interest the average or normal woman, whether she is a mother or
not. Whenever a picture includes men and women together—whether It ad
vertises hunting outfits, bookcases, shaving soap, pianos, or automobiles —It Is
sure to have an added interest for most people because it contains the one
interesting element of human life. It is the same element that gives vitality
and Interest to literature, sculpture, painting, and music—that which illumin
ates and in some way helps to interpret life.
It is the element that unifies all the arts and industries, and binds society
together—making “of one blood all the nations of the earth.”
It is the wise advertiser who works with the predominating tendency of
human life, and cleverly associates his product with the one thing in which
all people everywhere are already interested,—Collier’s Weekly.
