I (,,.1-r Season In Chesa- peak -Filot 17th. Norf 'k Va,- . C .4S eake oystermen say that from whfc ever standpoint the oyster season, which closes shortly, may be consid ered, it has been the most unprofitable in the history of the industry on the bay. One tonger characterizes the sea son as nothing short of disaster, while another said there was no season to speak oft that not for a number of years has there been a greater supply on the beds, but the ice came down be fore Christmas and shut out the tong ' ers from the grounds so that the big crop did them no good. " ; : ..: Disaster, hardship and loss has been the experience of nearly all the dredge fleet captains. In some cases vessels were cut through and sunk by the ice; other craft were battered to pieces and - seriously damaged, and even the most fortunate were confronted by constant losses caused by the' tie-up of their .. vessels. Many members of the dredge boat crews were frozen and suffered , It . 1 J evner narasmpa practically unne&ra oi by Chesapeake bay watermen. .The. se ver weather precluded the shanghaing of ; many men who, no doubt," would have fallen victims to the unscrupu lous captains of oyster boats, who, each year, rope in the unwary ' whites and blacks, work them nearly to death and cast them ashore at some barren point, leaving the victims to shift for them elvea. A number of men reported having: been - inveigled aboard oyster ' boats early In the season, but the fierce weather soon put a stop to the opera ttona of the pirates. "v; ': The ice closed in on the great fleet of Chesapeake bay boats early in Decem ber, cad since , that time the ves sels remained almost constantly idle. In three, months some ' vessels ; made cant five day's work, and these were made in the fat of dangerous drifting : V . An oyster dealer said yesterday that many of the oyster vessels engaged in "any kind of work they could get. Dredge captains and tongers are prac ticrlly unit in saying that the oyster bottoms were in better condition this season than for ten years past, but the condition of the bivalves was not as good as last winter. . c As a result of the somewhat inferior quality of the stock,, despite the oyster amine, the . average prices ' this year hay not been as high as a year ago, it is said, , Startling Mortality.

Atlanta, EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA. , An Entervlew With Dir. H. L. Grant In Re ; ' gard t the Superior Advantage el . . This Section of New Bern In a recent enterview with Mr. H. L. Grant, who is in charge of' the indus trial publications which the Norfolk and men with limited means. To my cer Southern Railroad will shortly issue, : tain knowledge not a line of advertising concerning the advantages and require- matter concerning this coastal region ments of that portion of Eastern North has been distributed throughout MaryJ Carolina, traversed by the rail and lines of that company, Mr. , Grant says: . " After having made this coastal coun? try the subject of careful study and re search, with a view of inducing emi- gration aud general industrial develop-, ment throughout this section, I am led to believe that there does not exist an equal number of square miles any where in the United States which of. f ers to both the possessor of wealth and the man of limited means so equal an opportunity for the judicious invest ment of his capital. ' v..;. '';: j The climatic conditions and natural resources, so far over balance . the ob joctionable features as to at once ren der it an ideal land for a perminent home, free from the rigors of the north" and also free from the many ob jectionable features so often met with farther south. ' In fact this country is a happy medium between the two ex treme? and its advantages are already being appreciated, as evinced by the rapid increase of population and wealth which is already flowing iri from sur rounding territory. - The half has never been told and there is a . vast deal . of room for all honest industrious home seekers who care to avail themselves of this golden opportunity. ' : :.',.',- - The' trucking proposition of the east erner coastal section is unsurpassed anywhere in the United States, coming iri, as it does, about ' ten days or two weeks later than the first shipments from Southern Florida, and an equal number of days in advance of that of Virginia, t follows that this country enjoys a separate and distinct v period all its own, and hence lessens the dan ger of an overstocked market in the north and east. , When asked as to what, in hia opin ion, the south most needed in order to develop the great resources; he had just described, Mr. Grant emphatically replied, emigration, new blood. Emi gration of a good thrifty class of peo ple who can do things, people who ; are not only willing and anxious to apply themselves! dilligently to the cultivation of the soil, but people who are willing to go you one better, .' and their own home." -; :-. ": .-' .; In addition to emigration ' from ad joining states, the Germans,. Swedes, English and Scotch clement make capi tal workers and good law abiding citi zens, and every effort should be put forth to induce this class of , people to settle here. S In order to induce emigration there must first be some inducements held out by the country, it self. . What is needed here, is the' chopping up of some of these vast tracts of . land into small farms, and putting the same on the market at reasonable figures, and favorable terms. ': T 4e over crowded conditions of pub lic works, everywhere, and the univer sal tendency of all corporations to re place the aged and feeble with young and vigcrous help, has set the laboring classes thinking, and today there ex ists a stronger tendency among the masses, to revert to agricultural per- suits as an honorable and independen -1, , t us illustrate vividly the diftVreiu'n in u' '-"-inn of thowiiriUr ''.t and will the cliiul I t live; the child V..1 livn.

There is not a better location along this entire coastal section for cotton mills than right here.

CONFERENCE ON BONDS. Governor And Attorney General Think Settle ment With South Dakota Poislble. Raleigh, N. C March 18 Governor R. B. Glenn Attorney General R. D. Gilmer . returned this' morning at 4 o'clock from New York where they went to confer with Wheeler H. Peck ham, the well know New' York lawyer who represents the state of South Da kota in the now famous bond suit in' which South Dakota holds a judgment against North Carolina for $27,000. The Governors mission Was to bring about the best possible settlement on the part of North Carolina. Nothing definite as to the success of the mission is given out, the Governor merely stating that they had a very pleasant interview with Mr. Peckham and that he ia onfident that an amicable and satisfactory settle ment of all differences between both states will be reached. It is understood that the Governor has made a proposit ion for settlement that he and the coun cil of state consider fair and that they are very hopeful that South Dakota will accept it While the amount of the judgment is $27,000 it ia understood that the ten bonds that South Dakota holds if sola at par would only bring $17,000 then there would be further and expensive litigation on the part of South Dakota if further process were obtained against this state for the collection of .th e full amount of the judgment, r 1 1 i i VOICE OF THE PEOPLE. Omitted Some. . Having recently seen in a Northern paper, an article on the wontk roil work of our recent Legislature, are impelled to say something of it The comment made is surely notable, especially touch ing the "Dakota (so called) claim." He quotes the United States Consti tution and said, it fixes the fact, that no State can bring suit against another State, nor o State can lawfully deal in stocks or bonds, or any speculation whatever. And the writer expresses much aston ishment at the action of our legislature in regard to the Dakota matter, and if the money is paid it will doubtless be shared by "Tom, Dick and Harry," He said that possibly not more than a "Bakers Dozen" of the members had ever read or seen the United States Constitution. -. ' '.. He wrote that it is said, there were more than a thousand laws passed and added that happily there were some cul tivated men of distinction in the As sembly, otherwise, it would be difficult to tell of what additional laws would have been passed, making an overflow for our guidance. " A town of 1000 in habitants to have a special privilege to make and sell whisky., - The grape growers to make wine ' for sale. The non-trapping of ; bears. The fish of many rivers not to be caught in the usual way. But they failed to pass a law giving the ''crow", full privilege to rob the farmer of his corn. ;-v ; j : ; The gentleman whose article we thus briefly allude to, resides in a northern city, yet has given full evidence that he is a genuine "Tar Heel. " I'll add, that a Norfolk paper, the "Pilot" said 1235 laws were passed by the legislature of North Carolina and asks if she is not learning a new lesson inmisgovemment ' - . A? B. P.
