THE UNFORTUNATE STRIKE.
The strike at the Equinox mills just
at this time ia most unfortunate. The
people of Anderson and of the entire
county baye Just been congratulating
themselves that every Cotton mill In
Anderson was running on full time,
and that the wages being paid the
operatives would go far towards keep
ing np trade, conditions snd business
in and around Anderson. Now this
hope has been shattered and a atrlke
ls on. Hut drods of families are
thrown out of employment and if this I
condition ls allowed to continue, suf
fering will be sure to follow. It la to
be deplored that something could not
have been done to avert the strike. It
will.be much more to be deplored If
nothing can he'done to stop it The
Intelligencer does no? wish in this
editorial to t^vo anything to aay as
to the right and the wrong of thia
disagreement between the officials of
the mill arid the striking weavers.
Each side, of course, thinks it ls right,
and must think so strongly to mata*,
tain Ita position ns they are doing.
What we i$?f?ft?<lo Ia to call at
tention to the-fact that tho commun
ity alBO has" some ftghtj, and that it
ia a duty befallet to this disagree
ment owe to tho community to make
earnest and conscientious efforts toi
settle their differences, so that work j
may be resumed, and the consequent
suffering end !-?sss ?Vjjided. Tho civic
life of Andera?.'cannot afford to have
thia Industrial plant shut down at thia
time, and a Vglve and take" policy
should be pursued on both sides.
So we confidently expect ".nd hope!
that reason will prevail and that the
disagreement will prove only tempo
rary. If there isa desire to bc "bull
headed" on tho part of any connected
in any way with this unfortunate dis
agreement let those who feel this way
ateo aside and aiiow cool and disin
terested persons to- adjudicate the
matter. The cotton mills of thia sec
tion have been,,very f**e from dif
ferences of opinion resulting in
strikes, and we trust thia is only a
temporary cessation of work, and that
we shall have but little more of it
now or at any time.
FARM PLANNING.
If each farra in any community isl
clean, tidy, and well kepi, presenting
a thrifty, home-life appearance, the
whole neighborhood will be atractivo
to visitors add satisfying to residents.
Local and county fair boards might
create a very valuable farm improve
ment habit by offering a liberal prise
for the beat planned farm in a neigh
borhood'or In a county.
"Have the rocka on thia place been I
hydrated?" asked a Florence editor of j
one of the college professors. "Tool
much expert knowledge for a mere ?
newspaper man." remarked another.
'.Shortly, yo? hate shown ua every
thing in your department but the
brewery," aa?4 an editor from the
City of Distress to the genial chef at
Clemson, aft ?r being shown the Ira
menae feeding plant of the college.
"No, I have not shown it to yon, bat
ore have one," was the reply. The
Spartanborg editor went thirsty.
"I do not like to give the news to
the student? tomorrow morning at j
chapel," announced Prof. Harper.
"There are too many newspaper hero j
to ant? me," he continued. Rut, he was
at hts poet and gave the news cf the
day before In succino form. It was
remarked afterward that . his news
stories were every blt ss accurate asl
those being sent oat from Berlin, or j
Petrograd.
CLEMSON COLLEGE AM? TUE EDI*
TORS.
Thc editor of The Intelligencer,
sioux Willi the willoi ?> ul several uther
daily newspapers of th? Hinte, wan
present ut Clemson College yesterday
and the day beton- atteudiug the meet,
lug of the farm d?monstration agents,
which v. us held there this week. If
the farm demonstrator? were rank
failure; lu their counties, they cer
tainly did not fail to show that they
could "demonstrate" to "beat the
banu" before the bunch of editors
who drank In what they said as if it i
[were delicious Clemson College but
termilk.
President Higgs, and several of tho
profess-ors had the editors In tow sev
eral hours before they would let th?
demonstrators gel at them, and so
much ttint lo tlie scribes was new and
wonderful had been seen, that the
editors were easy marks lu Ur. I^mi;
and lila assistants, winn they were
turned over to them to be salted away.
It wau wonderful. The college and
thu eight hundred boys being trained
there to do the work of the Stute when
their terms are over, is an ever in
creasing deicht to those who occas
ionally see th?? college and the hoys.
The enthusiasm and the deep earneBt
nras, coupled with the accurute and
trustworthy Information possessed by
those who are revolutionizing the
science of agriculture In South Caro
lina, created a deep and lusting Im
pression on the newspaper men, and
they understand this uplifting move
ment bettor than they could ever have
done in reading and Btudylng of the
work ut long range. Prof. Long, who
has charge of the work In the State
la a master at bia work. Ile remind
ed this editor nf tho great band mas
ter Kryl, or Sousa, standing before
his agents with a gavel In his hand,
and by a word or look calling from
this great or that at lila pleasure, a
recital ot the work he had done tn
some particular line.
The real purpose of.tho conference
between the editors of the dally news,
papers and the demonstration agents,
was to devise moans hy which each
could be more helpful to the other.
Every demonstrator, unhesitatingly J
stated that he Considered tho coopera
tion of tho newspapers un Invaluable
asset to his work. The newspaper
editors stated that they believed trie
work belog done by these demonstra
tor* of the greatest Importance, and
we re willing to cooperate with them ;
In every way possible to spread their
gospel of better farming. Some' really
helpful suggestions were made on
each Bide, andean effort will be made
to build up a news feature of the
w ork so thal, concrete examples of j
what is being done in every county in
I th State may be.available to the news
paper*. Thia will doubtless bc <
handled through the demonstrators
direct, .in a large .-'measure, and
through the State headquarters at
; Clemson College, t A system of reporta
with: special mention of meritorious
1 work will doubtless be arranged, and
I from these reporta Prof. Long will
cull what will be helpful to every
county and forward thia to the news
papers.
:; It was a great meeting. It is evi
dent that the greatest constructive
work tn South Carolina Jua now ia be
ing done by. Dr. Long and his corps
of able aeslsanta. who are using auch
sound and logical methods to reach '
the people who need to be reached,
and to help them to help themselves.
Tho figuren In Prof. Longs annual re
port were astounding. His work cost ]
a total of 154,000, two-thirds of which j
was contributed by the National gov
ernment, and resulted In a profit to j
the people; bf tho State of $2.500.000.
Th?4 total is made up by auch Items j
'as this:. Demonstrators mixed at the |
homes of ?armero 22S.0?? tons of com
mercial fertiliser at a saving to the
termers of $4 per ton. Twenty one
thousand eight hundred forty-five
tresa pruned and sprayed: $34.131 ot
poultry and eggs sold through demon
strators. Corn yields raised from 8 or
9 bushels to 35 Or 45 bushels per. acre.
Wheat acreage increased otev 200 per
cent In a year; 98,200 aerea of cover
crops planted; 198,240 pounds of vetch
and clover teed saved by the farmers j
for future planting, etc. etc
The press of the State not stand!
behind sacha movement! As well ex-i
pect the ann to cease to shine.
Charleston has a wann admirer ead !
a strong defender tn the person ot the
librarian of Clemson College. Misc
Anne Porcher engaged several ot the
editors in a wurry war Oh the subject
of how to enforce law in Charleston.
She is so ardent an admirer of the
etty by the Sea that she challenges
all comers, but she could hardly de
fend the report that Charleston's may
or and a prominent business man went
down the aisle of the State house arm
In arm in order to defeat the prohibi
tion referendum "You are simply in.
corrigible," was as.far as she could
go.
The inspection of the obi home ot
John C. Calhoun waa one ot tho enjoy
able features of the visit' of the edi"
tors at Clemson College, Many ar
ticles ot furniture associated with thia
t .
great man are kept in hie old borne
and are viewed by many perso rt?. An
old sofa with caglea ornamenting the
aide?, ia said to be where the eagle
on the (direr dollar eame from. It1
waa auggeated that someone prouuce ?
a dollar and aee if the likeness were
accurate, hut not au editor had that
much coln of the realm on his person,
"on accour* of tho war."
KIM TO lt S OFF DUTY.
The editors at Clemson College
found several hundred ordinary cab
bage plants in "individual" pots. "Too
aristocratic," said Editor Brimson. "If
the farmer finds thia out, he will stop
his son from attending such a high
flaut?n' school," declared this Green
ville editor, on being shown over on
of the ?'ot houses at Clemson College.

IMMIGRATION BILL VETOED.
(CONTINUED FIIO.M PAOE ONE.)
it in thc form ip which lt ls here cast.
"The literacy test and the tests and
restrictions which accompany it con
stitute an even more radical change
in the policy of the nation. Hither
to we have generously kept our doora
open to all who were not unfitted by
reason of disease or incapacity for
self support or such personal records
and antecedents as -were likely to
make them a menace to our pesce
end order, or to the wholesome and
essential relationships of life. In this
bill it. is proposed to turn away from
tests ot character and of quality, and
to. Impose tests which exclude and
restrict; for the new teata here em
bodied/are not testa'of quality or at
character or of personal fitness, but
tests 'of opportunity. Those who '
come seeking opportunity are. not to
oe admitted unless tuey nave already ?
had ono of the chief of the opportun-j
Hies they seek-the opportunity of
education. The object of such provis- j
iona is .restriction, not selection.
"If the people of this country have
n.r.Ue rip their minda to limit the
number of Immigrants by arbitrary,
tests hbd so reverse the policy of all
Hie generations of Americans that
have gone before them, it is their
right tit do so. I am their servant :
and''nave no llcenso to stand in their '
way. But 1 do not believe that they 1
have. ' I respectfully submit, that no
ene can quote their mandate to that
effect. Has any political party ever
avowed a policy of restriction in this
fundamental matter, gone to the
country noa it, and beec commission
ed ' to control its legislation? Does
this bill rest upon the conscious and
universal assent and desire ot the
American people? I doubt it. It ia
4 doubt it that I make bold
" from it, I am willing to
k the verdict, but not until it
_ iderod. Let the pint
ie bf parties speak out upon this
policy end the people pronounce their
wish. The matte/ ie too fundamental
to be) Settled otherwise.
"I have no pride ot oolnion on this !
question: I am not foolish enough to
profess to know tho wishes and ideals
ot America better than the body ot i
