It is pointed out that the Chinese and Japanese, many of them, at least, are expert farmers, are of a higher order of Intelligence than the average farm laborer, at least In the South, and can be depended on to give C.

THE SOLID SOUTH PARTY, There are certainly some objections J slch! to a Southern party acting independent Tampa wants Teddy to come back and tent on tho old camp ground Just one time more. Tampa has a constant appetite for street fairs, carnivals and Mrs. Donovan. The pride of this household was little WUene, a 7-year-old daughter of gol- den hair and blue eyes—as lovely < little girl as a parent’s heart could re joice in. Dr. Pollock; ever tender and gentle with children, took the bright child on his knee, and talked to her of many things. Among other things, he said: I will teach you some French words which some day you can say to tho one you love the best." And so with pa tience and caro he taught her to say these words: "Jo t’aime de tout mon coeur.” Years havo passed since then, and today Dr. Pollock lies In St. Joseph hospital a suffering ihvalld, having overtaxed his strength in brilliant and tireless service for his beloved Insti tution. Much of the color and sun shine has faded out of his useful life, and the weary days carry for him more shadow than sunshine, more sorrow than joy. On Christmas day there came to hls darkened chamber a beautiful basket of flowers, radiant with cheer and fra grance and on them in a child's hand, the words: "Je t’aime de tout mon coeur." "t love you with all my heart." And WUene Donovan, now 14, had sent back, after passing years, the bread of a good man’s tenderness cast upon the waters of a softly flowing | it'*is~ compared with the 7,627,632 I lawzonlng the cotton market.

New York correspondent of the emphla Commercial-Appeal, who has filked with business men from all larts of this eviction on the subject of ^e Southern lalxir problem, sums up ’ ‘ views, which are practically IdentlrnL aa follows: "The negro as a 1 laborer 1s becoming steldlly less efficient: the a ( r.ount of work he la willing to do when he Is at work la getting smeller, and he i* be coming more unreliable. There to a tendency oi{ 'he part of the farm ne groes to go \ ■ the city, where In many Instances they are able to live without labor by the assistance of their women folks, who act as servants. Then the demand of the sawmills and of the railroads for rough labor has drawn great many negroes from the farms. The South, It Is said, could raise easily double the amount of cotton which is now marketed if it were possible to get the labor to cultivate and gather it. Already, In some sections of the cot ton belt, steps are being taken to sup j lenient, U not to supplant, the negro by other labor. In Texas Mexicans are being utilized to a very considerable extent, and this source of labor sup ply will be drawn on even more rlly in the future. Agents from crats behind their respective flags. Mr. Bryan's pi.igramme, as glvsn In "The Ooutlook," la aptly termed by that newspaper a programme of "So cial Democracy"—something even more repulBlve to Southern Democratic sentiment than hls hitherto pro gramme of "Populistic Democracy,' which he now abandons to Tom Wat son. As between them the Boutbern Democracy should have no choice— it should stand aloof from both, will be time enough to consider when conditions fuvor that process.- sen, for the exclusive manufacture of inatohes In that country.
