Mr. Watson, of Pemberton &
Penn, Dauville, Va.,
spending a few days on this mar-
ket. He says this 1s the first year
his company has placed any o:-
ders outside of Danville. Of
course he left some business here.
A few days ago while in con-
versation with a leading tobucco-
uist of this State, he asked us why
1c was that our people did not put
ina bid for stemmeries here?
Said he, ~o~you have the tinest
oveulng here for astemmery of
any eastern tobucco market, and
if your people willshow up the
udyantages that nature has given
you over all the other tobacco
markets in the east, you wil! have
no trouble in getting capitalisis

ries.� He asked if we had a board
of trade, and if our business men
seemed totake any interest iu
trviny to induce others tuo our
town. We answered as dest we
could, that our people did ail they
eould in their individual capacity
but that unfortunately we had no
regularly organized board. o Well�
said he, oyour town is tou nealthy

ofa reputation abrvad. People

in a short while we would have a/|
board of trade organized. Since!
~then we have talked with a few,

In someT sections there are
men of enterprise who would
make a fortune out of it if they
had a chance at the fruit going
to waste in North Caroiina this
season. Whata short sighted
people we are! not to be hav-~
ing canning factories and util-
izing the abundance that Provi
dence has placed at our doors.
By the way, we may lay many
things at the door of the Negro,
but we should not overlook the
service he has done as a bulwark
against immigration. Negro la-"
bor has~kept out alien labor, has
kept out discontent and strikes
and anarchy.
If we will educate the Negro
properly, teaching him his sta:
tion, pointing him to wholesome
ideals and arousing worthy am
bitions, he will continue to be the
safeguard in lower laboring cir
cles in the South. And we ought
to stand by him in the competi-
tion that Italians, Irish, Poles,
etc., etc., will bring upon him, be-
cause he is better suited to our
climate, able to do more work,
more tractable, and possessed of
inore of the spirit of our institu
tions than they. Take the Negro
out of the hands: of designing
politicians and he is more desira-
ble thar any alien of the lower
grade. Education will do this;
education and proper but firm
and uncompromising treatment.
