A movement was Inaugurated In the Department of Commerce and Labor, Monday, "which,, the Immigration au thorities assert. It the plan proposed ( Is enacted Into law by Congress. w!llione' result In - Improving Industrial condl - . tlons in the South and aid .le pariiy in solving the negro problem. It Is pro posed to divert the tide of immigra tion toward the Southern States. Infus ing new blood into their Industrial and agricultural life, and at the same time relieving New Tork, and other large cities of he congestion of population which is becoming more acute year by year." A number of Southern railroad men, and some of Eastern and Western roads bavins' Southern connections, 4-. mm,, 'l"e " ne,u l,,c Ui n.-, were present and promised their co-paper and by nlg agsoCatea In the of- operation. The plan la said to be slm-lCce , not omy confidence, but affec- pie, but will require money and thej.. anA hn.ineHS. to know that consent of Congress. Mr. Sargeant. the Commissioner of Immigration, unfold ed his idea to the meeting. "He pro poses taat the government shuil to a considerable extent control the move ment of aliens after their arrival in American ports, but would do this by moral suasion rather than by force. He would have it so arranged that Im migrants' would be sent by officials of the government to the sections that would - prove , most advantageous to them. , He would establish at Ellin Isl and a bureau of Information to be used by persons in this country who are In need of labor and by the prospective American cltisen who Is seeking a home for. himself and bis family. The Immi grant would be told all he wanted to know about, the United States, the cli mate, resources, cost of living and' the comparative advantages of the various sections. ?. Special attention would be given to exhibits reflecting conditions throughout the country, as far as they might Interest the Immigrant." This may be the beginning of the turning of the tide of immigration to ward the South, which many Southern people have long desired to see done; and yet, now that we are face to face, a it were, with the subject, what do our people think of it? If we could pick our Immigrants all might be well enough; but If the government, through Ha desire to -d the cities of the con gestion of aliens, should turn upon us a horde of Goths and Vandals, our last atate would be worse than the first. All remember about the white chHni-ber-maid In an Indiana hotel who re fused to make up Booker Washington's bed. don't you? Well, they got up sub scription for her and she bad numer ous offers of marriage. One of these he accepted, and It appears that her . husband. Mr. Levi E. Hadley. has now , sued her for divorce on the ground of cruelty,' making oath that she has an s ungovernable temper and has frequent- , ly struck him. He should also sue Booker Washington for damages re sulting from his having stopped at that . hotel, and, also the hotel management for having bounced the chamber-lady,-for these are In fact the authors of all - Mr. HadleyV woes. The Columbia State observes upon this Incident that the gentleman who marries a heroine takes his chances. So he does, and Mr. Hadley's experiences should be a solemn warning to the numerous gen tlemen 'who are suitors for the hand of the estimable; Miss Patterson, of New ". York. ""-;. -. " Ex-Senator Hill of New made , lthe statement, several months ago, that at the close of the present year h would retire from the leadership of the New York Democracy , and from active politics! but Mf, Norman E. Mack, the New York member of the Democra tic national committee,, declares that Mr. Hill will do nothing of the kind.
