Trarelin'jf in stales to the North, one is struck with the beautiful farms and well-kept estates. Such a chmirc is noticed by one who has sent his life in this section,' naturally causing a desire for such a cork! it ion to prevail here. The greatest blessing that could come to Anson during the next ten years would bo theKCttILDjr of one thou sani -arms uy men who nronose. to live on them for a term of years or who buy them outrihL . It is the indepndent farmer, even though a small one, that is hold ing this counsry together. The condit'on which once existed in merry nnxlanu and so well ue- sribel by Goldsmith in the follow ing: "A tim th.?r ere Eajlan-l's griif be ran.

And his b!t ricbs. ignorance of wealth." Hut light labor today supplies .1 i.i more than nr? requires and the farmer with an improved farm. which funmhes for him a horns he loves, is quite the king of men. The tenant system, so much in practice today, is largely responsi ble for the condition that prevails, and Mr. A. I. French, writing in the Prog revive Farmer, shows some faults of are sullicient thought to be He says : the system, which to cause serious given the subject. In the fust place the luin- dling of our lands in short' term leases, as is customary in our loulur ' ? '.'r vur"1 u : men wno worK mem, crcaung iu iJm.hi a watMlerinif disnosition: and thb constant changing of place, df abode witu its conscnucnt break ing of home, neighborhood and church ties can have no other than a bud effect upon the individual tanner. He naturally feels ess interest ia a community where he exiH:Li to have only a temporary aU.ie and therefore gives less thought to matters iertaihing- to the giMwl of that community social ly, and iv hep a man .gts to that state he cares little for things that tn ike for g'xnl in his community. he will soon care less for the better things in his home. As the home us the foundation in w hich all got! i l uiKIed in our country anything thaw tends to lower the standard of th.it home can bo regarded by ril un iiuuir in.- ill iuaivi l. n;e and its surroundings with jealous care. He-will give of his time and thought toward the up building of his community, know u.g well that anything that make for 'ol in his neighborhood will n licet gocd on his home. His children will Iv reared with more ' rare, Iheir training teing toward a Ivtter citizenship and ihe ten dency in a community where the rarmers own the farms they live on will be constantly upward -in the majority of eases. This then i- the writer's chief objection to the tenant system that it tends to lower citizenship and when you take goxf citizenship out of a 'community 'what have you? ou jlme crime, intemivrance, immor iiity, and all those things that lend to lower man s n&ture. Secondly.' the short-term tenant itaeiu iu vog'fh " he Coited f States must of necessity be a system of soil robbery, lb- handling or ani:u:d-s on our farms (the only inemrs wVhave tietbt- fyr liie ec onomical maintenance mid upbuild. tng tf the fertility of our land ) requires a coulinual tenure of the land on w hich the animals are pro- Muced for a term of .ears to make their handling a success, with the long-time lease the tenant farmer may succeed in succeeding I in ot!n?r 1-ind-i. ' Agiiin ine snori lea tenant can and docs have no system xlf 'rotatiou of croijs; the second essential to the maintain ing of soil fertUityr IU is simply, in the majority" of cases, interested only in getting what he can out of ihe soil by a' quick money crop; and no man can blarof hmi for so doing, as no other course is open" to him, with the. system under which he' is toinpellcb toVAvork. He cannot reastmably be expected to devote any part of hi? time or thought to the upbuilding pf the soil on which he works when he knows tliat not he but the landlord or next tenant on the place will reap the benefit from his labors. x much or the system now what U the remedy?

The ortler which is issued by the Commis sioner, of Internal Revenue, is sweeping. It says that the land upon which an illicit jdistillery is found will be forfeited to the government and that the man who allowed another to pass over his land going to and from a whiskey manufacturing plant for the purpose of operating the same, will be guilty. Mr. Hoi ton says ho will proceed against the Smith town moonshiners at once in ac cordance with the ortler.

True to his instincts, the careful Clevelander immediately repaired to the telega ph office, from which he dispatched a message to thtf lady. It read: "Don't marry till I come. Howard."
