The New Berne (N. C.) Journal de clares that there are five hundred idle people in that place who will not work, although the farmers of the snrround ing'territory are complaining that they cannot get sufficient labor to properly cultivate their farms. It would seem that there is a large idle population that does not want to work in Wil mington, since the Wilmington Mes senger expresses the hops that the next Legislature will take up the va grancy question and so amend the law as to provide that H the idlers will not go to the country voluntarily they may bs iorced to labor for the public in same way. Our Wilmington contemporary issat isfled that there is plenty of labor in the land if it could be utilized. And fo Is the Norfolk Landmark ; which remarks that the rural South would not be cry ing for immigration if the disturbing drift towards the cities could be check ed. "There would be," continues the Landmark, "no scarcity of labor on the farms and in the mines of the South if ihe men who eke out a miser able existence in the cities were willing to make an Lonest liveli hood in the country by the healthful sweat of their brows." This latter contention ts true, but it is to be hoped that even if the idle la bor in the cities should be put to work on the farms and In the mines, the South would still cry for a good class of immigration. We need that addi tion to our population for the purpoEe of building up the waste places. There is in the mines and on the farms al ready work for !1 the city idlers, but there is also room in the Southern country for thousands upon thousands of new settlers who will start new farms.
