The former are natives and the latter are imports or: descendants of imports. Charlotte Chronicle. Our good-neighbor has likely overlooked the apparent inconsistency as displayed above. To be sure there are thousands of good people in Europe and elsewhere that would make model citizens for North Carolina or any other commonwealth, but they are wise enough to seek and find and are gladly Teceived, but this importation by the drove is an entirely different matter. Thre is no objection to sub stantial progress, but the mills of the gods grind slowly, as they ahould, and we who live here by the sacrifice of the lives, of our anc.es? tors have a right to some consideration for ourselves and nosteritv and though the thing is advocated wuuio uiiiiiiai xogiLuo iu io lui us, whether our assets and resources Awav .with' the immigration bureau, but allow those sood neoule who are coming a wide berth and iiiiiiiHiiiinimtiiiiiiiiimiiiiuuiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiinHiiimniiiiiiiuuitta'iii The New Zionist Plan. We had always looked upon Zionism. "that is, the colonizing and nationalizing'of fthe Jews in Palestinelas'more or less vision ary scheme not likely to be real ized for many a long day and then only to be put in effect if it is in reality a part in the fulfil ment of prophecy as to the return of the scattered"nation to their ancient country, the Holy Land of the Bible. But the recent of fer of the British government to giveithe "Zionists" a tract 5,000 square miles in extent, in East Africa, looks as if it may result in somepractical scheme of colon ization in which emigrants from many of the crowded cities of the Old World and from the countries where the Jew is Btill an object of positive hate and outrageous cruelty will take part and go forth to found a new State under na tional leaders of their own race, and to show to the world that the chosen people, unassisted by oth er races and uniniured bv what - in Europe are hostile influences, can accomplish. Of course there are Zionist lead ers who see in the movement to ward Africa an abandonment of their cheerished hope andf a sur render of all the inspiration that comes from national pride and strone faith in the ultimate re- turn of the people to Palestine East Africa is not the Holy Land and they will have none of it. Not so Mr. Zangwill, the Jewish leader who favors the establish ment of Jewish State, along prac tical lines. . Of course neither he nor any other but the wildest vis ionarv imagines that the well-to do, Hebrews of this countrv or of others will take part in the move ment, other than to lend sympa thy and give nioney. Property owning, prosperous, thrifty and hishlv esteemed Jews in all the various professions and business of free America are not thought of in the plan. Charlotte Chron icle. rf CURRENT COMMENT. A Legislature in session is a present reminder of the many ills a State is heir to in the wav of petty legislation. The Legisla ture considers , many questions that should be left to the regular monthly meetings of county com missioners. As a usual thing, our county commissioners are poorly paid for their services, but this could easily be remedied and legislation in line with a county's needs could be more easily brought about by vesting them with little authority thax is tasen up by the Legislature on matters which serve as a blockade to other questions of more importance.- Stanly Enterprise. ' Says the Washington Post: 'Old Gerbnimo will appear in the inaugural paradf , but it would be an act of discretion to not allow him to get into the same division with Gen. Miles." They can hunt up an old cutthroat and scalper iik4 that for spectular purposes but if some of the '61 fighters against the government were here they wouldn't be invited to offi ciate at a cat fight.

The following signed statement has been issued by C. H. Jenkins, of the executive committee of the Southern Cotton Growers Associa tion : Since the first call was issued for the farmers to organize for the purpose of securing a 25 per cent. reduction of acreage and fertilizers cotton has advanced J2.50 ter bale. "Upon the basis of four million bales being still in the hands of the producers; this means a gain of $10,000,000 to the cotton grow ers of the South, If the farmers and business men of the South will stand by the programme agreed upon at the New Orleans convention, this gain will amount to $40,000,000 on the crop in hand by June 1, and the gain of the next crop will be at least $125, 000,000. Can we not afford to pay something, both in labor and money, for such a consummation 'as this? "The essentials are reduction in the next crop and holding the present crop. The present crop cannot be economically with out warehouses ; therefore, my ad vice is to build warehouses and do it now. Let the farmers and business men of every county get together at once and raise the necessary fund to build a ware house," Brown wood, Texas, Dis patch, 2nd. Devices for Shabby Genteel. In the present cold" weather, a dozen or so of the homeless have been taking refuge every night in the posfoffice, where the air is well warmed. Though the pinch of hunger and exposure, they seem generally to be of a better class than hoboes who flock to the city lodging house.' There is a sort of shabby respectability . about their make-up. .The wonder is when or where they sleep. They have to remain standing in the postorBce and they dare not even doze on their feet for fear of the watchman. A few of the bolder ones make no bones about it that they are there for shelter. They look out of the windows and. even gossip - a litle together. The greener and timid er ones invent pathetic pretenses for staying under cover. One mau scans tho lists of unclaimed let ters for an hour at ia time, though he cannot read them in the dim light unless he has eyes of a cat. Another has a soiled envelope, a crumpled sheet of paper and a pencil; He pretends all night to be writiug i letter. .,'.' . One of the most timid of all comes in at one end of the build ing. He has something that looks like ai letter in his hand He reads the legends over all the drop boxes, walkes around to the other side and goes up and down reading them there, as if he could, not find the right slot. He spends five minutes or so, until he gets thoroughly warmed, and then he slips his latter into his pocket and goes out. He is back again in ten minutes blue with cold, goes over the same old game and out again. and so on all nieht.: New York Sun, PrjDf , Krzer fo Sfieak, a Ascension and Large Crown txpecteu, ; ; Manniug,'Feb. li--Pi S. Kluttz is atteuotihg court' this week.' He is interested io a civil case, 'Adam Locke, only son of Mr, aid Mrs. J. L. Pinkston, has been quite iUitfie past week, with grip and cold, bordering on to pneu monia. '' ' D. T. Lingle has been kept m doors for past few days with grip. Mrs., J. B. Lingle and children have been confined to their rooms with grip and bad colds. Yesterday at noon for one hour in the very jaws of a blizzard, the blinding sncw and piercing winds made it very uncomfortable for those who were out doors . At the closing of Salem school, which verv likely will be March 31st, Prof. Kizer, the Supt. of Public Schools, will be present an appropriate address, this, together "with the balloon ascension, the many' other exhibition features of the old time school-exhibition, will certainly draw a large crowd. W. L. S. Young Fools That Marry. A green boy without a dollar, present or prospective, sparking a girl regular and talking about marrying is a spectacle for gods and men. He should be reasoned with, and if he will not quit un til he is able to support a wife and so know who he loves and the dif ference between love and passion, he should be quarantined, or put iD a qonvent erected on purpose for sucn cases. Nine-tenths of the unhappy marriages are the result of gieen .human calves be ing allowed to tun at large in the society pasture without yokes on them They marry and have children before they have mus taches, -they are fathers of twins before they are proprietors of pants and the little girls they marry are old women before they are twenty. Occasionally one of these goslingmarriages turns out very well, but it is a clear case of ac cident. If there was a law against young .galoots i spanking and before they have cut all their teeth, we sup pose the little cusses would evade it in some way, but there ought to be sentiment against it. It is time for these bantams to think of finding a, pullet when they have raised money by their own" work to buy a bundle of lathes to build a coop for her. But they see a girl who looks cunning and they are afraid there are not .going to be enough girls to go around and they begin to get in their work real spry, arid before they are aware of the sanc tity of the marriage relation they are hitched for life, .and before they own a cook stove or a bed stead they have to get up in the night and go after the doctor, so frightened that they run them selves out of breath, and then abuse the doctor- because he does not run too, and when the doctor gets there he finds there is not enough linen to wrap a, doll baby in. About this time he realizes that tie has been a colossal, and as he flies around to heat the wa ter and bring thfr bath tub, goes whooping afier his mother or her mother; he turns pale around the gills, his . hair turns red in a sin gle night and hecalls high heaven to. witness that if he lives till morning, which he seriously doubts, he will turn over a new leaf.

Thre trees in the neighborhood of his factory were cat down at T :35 in the morning. They were instantly barked and. ,pulped and the first roll of paper was ready at 9:34. It was lifted into an automobile that stood waiting ana conveyed to the ma chine room of the nearest daily paper. The paper being already set, the printing began at once, i and by 10 o'clock precisely the journal was on sale in the streets. The entire process of transforma tion had. exactly two hours and twenty-five minutes Editor and Publisher. The Editor's Career. Thj stork disappears and we look info the cradle and behold a male child. After running the gauntlet of measles, mumps, and chickenpox he enters school. At the age of ten he is a red-headed, freckled face boy and the terror of the neighborhood. At twelve he is an apprentice in a printing office. At eighteen he has acquir ed two cases of long primer and an army press, and is the editor of a' country newspaper. At twen ty he is married. At thirty he is bald-headed, stoop shouldered, and is the father of a large family- At thirty-five he is a corpse in a cheap pine coffin, and as 500 delinquent subscribers file past his bier for the last look, they are heard to say : "He was a good fellow, but he couldn't save his money." Lockwood, ( Mo., ) Times. -im- r - Hold On to the Farm. The man who owns a small farm is indeed monarch of all he sur veys. He can be independent of everything save death, and tax collectors. He will make the mis take of his life whenever be parts with his land and moves to town. He can educate his children right there on that farm. It is all non sense to suppose that an educa tion can oiily Up had at college. Horace Greely educated himself. Many of the successful men in American life did the same thing. Hold on to the farm. Encourage the boys to read newspapers and magazines and to work puzzles around the fireside, and they will come out all right in the matter of education. Hold on to the farm.

As to Our Proposition. In offering The Watchman at the present price, 50c, some small .explanation is appropriate. Real izing the fact that to employ some one to make a complete canvass ; of the county, the cost would most probably reach 50 per cent, of the receipts, if not more, so we have decided to give this amount to the subscriber who comes in with the cash, any time between now and March 31st., after which the price will be $1.00. We are send ing out some sample copies for the inspection of those who may receive same, which, by the Wy, is also an invitation to become a subscriber. Any one subscribing now will $et near a year and three months for his money, so.it is to your interest to subscribe at onte.
