FARMERS MEET
IN CONVENTION
Georgia State Agricultural Society
In Session At Quitman.
THE RACE QUESTION COMES UP
President Brown Declares Time
Has Come For Parting
With the Negro.
The Georgia State Agricultural So
ciety convened at Quitman last Wed
nesday at 9 o’clock and it never had a
warmer welcome. The cordiality of
the reception and the interest of the
proceedings left nothing to be desired.
It was really a great convention of the
stalwart and brainy men of the state
gathered to discuss big questions
worthy of the best thought of states
men.
The race question came to the front
at once, and President Brown made an
utterance which will wake up the
country. His assertion that the white
man and the negro are at the parting
of the ways and we should aid the ne
gro in his efforts to leave us, were
loudly applauded.
“Practical education” was discussed
by Mr. Hoke Smith; “Marketing of
Cotton,” by Major Hanson, by letter;
and the “Relation of Agriculture to
Manufactures,” by Mr. T. H. Martin.
Mr. Smith’s address received mark
ed attention. It is on a line which
the state university is about to put in
practice upon suggestions made by
him.
The annual address of President
Pope Brown of the Georgia Agricult
ural Society was an introduction to
the program and referred in turn to
the different topics of discussion, call
ing attention to the eminence of the
speakers and their fitness to handle
the subjects assigned to them. He
said the society’s proceedings had
ceased to become a dumping ground
for worthless junk.
He spoke particularly of the sub
jects to be discussed by Major J. F.
Hanson, Mr. Hoke Smith, Mr. D. A.
Tompkins and John Temple Graves,
alluding also to the discussion of the
round cotton bale. In speaking of
the race question Mr. Brown was bold
and unequivocal in declaring that the
time had come for the patting of the
ways between races and declared that
the south should stop toadying to the
north. On this subject Mr. Brown
said:
The Negro Problem.
“The question of labor is one of
particular interest to the farmer. In
some sections of our state the hired
help is almost exclusively the negro.
The negro problem therefore is one in
which the farmer is more directly in
terested than any other class of our
citizens. The relations between the
farmer and the negro, as a rule, are
friendly. The terrible crimes which
force us to a consideration of this
problem, whether we would or not, do
not indicate the disposition of the ne
gro as a race. As a rule, they are the
most patient, best natured race of peo
ple on earth. No man has more right
to feel kindly toward the negro than
I, and I can say in truth that no man
enjoys their freedom to a greater ex
tent than myself and my section, but
the question is not between me and
the negro.
“It is between the white people of
the south and the negroes of the
south. Let alone there would be no
trouble. The south haters of the
north are at the bottom of all the
trouble.
“The leaders of the negro race say,
‘Let’s go home, this is not our home. ’
They are preaching discontent, and
whether the scheme of colonization
is practical or not. I am not prepared
to say, but I do believe that it is to
the interest of the people of ths south
to aid and abet the negro in his efforts
to leave. A few days ago when cer
tain prominent citizens were called on
by the press to say how we should
protect our families against certain
crimes there was a response that seem
ed to meet the approval of the press.
It was this: ‘Make a miniature arsenal
of every southern home, teach wife
and daughter how to shoot, allow wo
men to carry concealed weapons,’ etc.
“I say if it has come to that it is
time for the parting of the ways. Shall
we part in pence or strife? I would
say peace, and let us stand not upon
the cost. The idea is hooted at by
some, but advocated by some of the
best thinkers of both races.”
Mr. Brown then referred to the fact
that the race problem would be dis
cussed by John Temple Graves, to
whom he alluded as a gentleman of
eloquence and one unmoved by politi
cal considerations and noted for the
purity and sincerity of his motives.

New Railroads Under Way.
According to the Railway Age, the
present year is likely to see a great re
vival of railroad building. It estimates
that 5,000 miles will be added to the
mileage of the United States, which
would be a greater record than that
of any year since 1890.
According to the Railway Age, the
building of 5,000 miles means the in
vestment of about $150,000,000 and the
permanent employment of 25,000 men.
Tables show that there are 500 new
lines projected or under construction,
with a total length of 40,563 miles. Os
these lines less than 2,500 miles of rail
road is in the New England or Middle
States. In the Southwestern States
there are 110 new roads under way
with a length of 12,211 miles. The
South Atlanic, Gulf and Mississippi
Valley States have an equal mileage
of new roads in prospect, the Central
Northern and Northwestern States
have nearly 9,000 miles projected, and
more than 4,000 miles of railroads are
to be built in the Pacific States.
The 5,000 miles of new track to be
built this year consists largely of ex
tensions and links for the large West
ern systems. With these additions the
railroads in operation in the United
States will be in the neighborhood of
192,000 long, of a total value of $12,-
500,000,000, and employing a million
men in their operation.

“Haven’t you and your friend gotten

A Calllarala Fann Telephone.
Th® Salina® Valley Laud Company
has a telephone system the line of
which consists of the ordinary barbed
wire that tfas already on the fences.
It la about ten miles long. We use a
good telephone Instrument. All the
connections ar® made very close, and
no wire is connected with the ground
in any way, cither by hanging down
or by touching any other wire that does
reach the ground.
In crossing roads and gates the pre
ferable way is to have posts high
enough to carry an overhead wire, but
we took three-elghth-ineh iron water
pipes and laid them under the gates
and most of the roads and then ran a
rubber-covered wire through them to
connect with the barbed wire on each
side, bending the ends of the pipe up
at the sides of the gates or roads and
then filling the ends up with putty to
keep water out.

work just as well as any Insulated
line in dry weather, but not at ail when
it is raining, because then the current
runs in the ground. As soon as the
posts have time to dry off after a rain
it is all right again. Such lines will
work for any reasonable distance, say
from one to 100 miles, but in States
where it often rains they will not do
well.—American Agriculturist.
Americans and Shakespeare’s Will.

Shakespeare’s will, says: “The at

nationality, in replying to my inquiry

to see Shakespeare’s will, said: ‘Few
of our people ever ask for it Now
and then a Frenchman or German
comes to see it, and multitudes of
Americans. Them Americans are mad
about Shakespeare. A hundred of ’em
come here for one Englishman. So
many of ’em handled the will that their
fingers wore off the signatures on the
bottom of the urst and second sheets,
adn so we find ’em framed.’ ’’—New

“In some future year,” said the citi
