As mentioned in yesterday‘s Guar-

dian, the Hon. Charles Dalton return- ed from the United States on _Tuesday after an absence of about two months. During that time Mr. Dalton wus by no means idle for he traversed tho Continent South and West, visiting New Orleans anti Mexico and, oi’ course, the country between.

Yesterday, Mr. Dalton, who is look-

ing remarkably well and all the bet- ter for his vacation. gave an interview to a representative of the Guardian. describing his tour and comparing conditions south with those here.

A trip "South" at this season, said

Mr. Dalton, is associated with many sights and observations that make the journey enjoyable, and for a long while will give food for reflections on the varied scenery presented to ourl

The same conditions generally pre-

vail throught the States oi' North and South Carolinas and in the towns we passed through, the principal industry was the manufacture ol' cotton where could be seen innumerable quantities of bales of the fleecy product. On ac- account of war conditions the price of the cotton which was l'orinerly 10 anti 12 cents is now down to sc. and on this account the cultivation for next _veur it is supposed will be very mucll less.

As we pass down through Georgia,

both sides ot the question. -Personally he was convinced that the measure should' not be passed into law at the present time at all events. Mr. Bick- erdlkc had shown absolute sincerity' - in his arguments, but he had given an interpretation to the commandment “Thou shalt not kill" which ‘could hardly be accepted. Surely no one could argue that it would btvwrong- to take lli`c in self defence. Surely no one would say that our soldiers now lighting in the battloiields of Europe wore violating this command. Mr. Biizkerdlktfs argument seemed to im- .ply that a man had a more absolute right to his life than be had to his liberty. Of that Mr. Doherty was not certain. Mr. Doherty contended that the maintenance of this penalty is the great deterrent on the great mass of the people. The execution oi’ one in- nocent man is a lamentable thing but against it should be set the safety of al ltllc people of the state. The bill of Mr. Bickerdike was detected of all the people ol’ the state. The
