GennraPo Widow Fonnd Prenldrnt ''Large-Hearted, Good, Great." In an interview given out at Char lotto last week Mrs. Stonewall Jackson, wiJo? of the Confederate General, pays tribute to President ar,d Mrs. Roose velt: "In President Roosevelt's trip through the South be haa probably made no m re pleasing impression anywhere than i.i this city. "Although h s stop with us was all too brief ( nly 45 minuter), our people gavo him a grand and enthusiastic welcome aud ovation, and certainly he cspivted those who were fortunate enough to meet him by his own ex ceedingly cordial and gracious manner. "I had been honored in being placed at the head of a delegation of ladies to receive Mrs. Rooeevelt, and when I was presented to his Excellency I was both eurpri'ed and over whelrue d at the warmth and exuteance c f his greetkg expre used so much admiration for ray husband attd so much joy at meet iug h:a wife, holding my baud so tcn-d-rly and yet reverently, that my hear' was deeply touched; and when he spoke of his pleasure in appointing my grand son to a cad tship at West Point and complimented him as 'a splendid young fellow,' he struck the tenderest chords of a very grateful heart. "I am sure the President is all right a large-hearted, good and great man. His noble tributes to General I.e :xnd Jackson proved that he is of the true metal. "The President's wife made as favor able an impression upon the ladies as any 'first lady of the land' could, being cultured aud gracious, womanly and resjKDnsive to all the eager attention showered upon her. It was lovely to see how the ladies and children crowded around her and how kindly and sweetly she received them. "My faithfnl old cook was perhaps the meet elated person in the parlor of my simple little home as she handed the 'first lady of the land' a glass of water, and she told me afterwards that 'we was the bontoneel folks in town, as nobody else had the Presidant's wife in their house.' r rnrl C n mi Ltvlto -,- J .

New York Tiroes. , Apropos of the neeed of "help" in the South, to which we have frequently al luded, we note with interest a very sensible article in the Charleston Fews and Courier of the Ipth on "Textile Expansion and Imnvgyation." Referring to the addition of 4,000,000 spindles in the cotton-spinning mills of Lancashire, "nearly halfthe whole num ber in the 8outb," within a year The News aad Courier points out that if the 8outh were in a portion to meet the growing demand for cotton textiles, as Lancashire is meeting it, "it would to day be earning incomparably larger profits." "All natural conditions join to make the Southern American States the locality , most favorable on the planet for spinniog as well as for growiDg cot ton," but they cannot increase their ru'put primarily for the lack of labor. "Twenty per cent, of onr Bpindles, so it is stated are idle now,"pd the "reser voir from which the supply cf. overa tives comes has been exhausted." The tilU rs of the soil are kept on their farms by the h gh price of cotton, and the negroes are not fitted for the factory work. "Toe Appalachian Mountains contain Bome hundreds Qt thousands of people who could probably better their lives by moving to the malls, but to con vince them cf this woult be a difficult and ex eosive undertaking. Thd News and Courier says: "The conclusion of tfte whole mat ter is that if mere mills ;are to be built in the South, the people to run them must be brought here, nbt by twos and threes, and dozens and scores, but by the hundreds and thousands continu ally. In short, only a large immigra tion of mill workers will make poss ible any considerable taking on of new growth by the Southern textile in hustry. The present population is not adequate to the present spindlage. No prospect is to be discerned that it will materially increase, except at a slow pace, unless accretions , are obtained through concerted efforts on a large scale to induce newcomers." This is not an appeal for "indis criminate" or "undesirable" immigra- available aseets of the South The Chattanooga conference surely should not be deaf to such an argument.

The race canuot expect to get every- thing at ODce. It must; learn to wait and bide its time, to prQve iiaplf wor- thy by showing its possession of per severance, of thrift, of self-control. The destiny of the race is chiefly in its own hands. The future of the South now depends upon the people of Ipth races living up to the spirit and letter of the laws of their several States and working out the destinies of both races, not as races, but as law abiding American citizens. Taxing tlie Goat An old genthman residing in New York was one day accosted by the tax collector and en beiDg asked what live stock be owned he replied: "I have no stock except my goat." The coll-ctoi then stated his bu-iness and the old man asked how much the goat was as- aesHfHl. The collector said ' $4." The! old man seid: "It is entirely too much. I can buy another gcat with that " So I it was put off and the c& man went to the clerk's c.tlict to s e ibout the matter Yes." said the cler, "the city law says that 'eve-ything - bounding and huttin, on Chestnut Mreet must be . . . . and as your wie-u jjet . , . , t r. w ,;e lo Soal lwo ,r,UJl lcek uc ",u 1 Uxed at 4."

Evidence of the prosperity of the Southern Railway is gratifying. The last annual report shows that the in come account of the road increaFed over a million acd a quarter dollars, while it spent over two and a half million in dcub'e tracking, new depots and other permanent improvements. The groes earnings increased 6 12 per cent, over last year, the passenger revenues 10 per cent, and the freight 5 3 4. As the Wilmington Messenger re marks : "A railway cannot prosper un less its contributing territory is prosper ous. A railroad cannot annually in crease its business unless th? territory through which its lines run increases its exports products and its demand for goods produced beyond its borders Unless the people who patrorrz a rail road have money to spend and products to ship the railroad cannot make money." By this test the country through which the Southern runs is enj )ying unprecedented prosperity. The Mes-J seDger further observes that along the line of this road there were built or put into operation during the last fiscal year 46 textile mills, 34 furniture facto ries, 26 iron industries, 77 stone juar ries and coal mines. 13 cotton Beed oil plants, S fertilizer factories and more than 500 smaller industrial plants, while 250 existing ones were enlarged. Also there was more investment of for eign capital and settling of immigrants alorjg the line of this road than in the previous years. Fatnena In Oklahoma. St Ixnils Republic.
