We republish, in another column ;,
comments by the Marlboro Times upon
our recent remarks on the "Aot for the
protection of Agricultural lahorera."
The Times has misunderstood completely
me remarks Of the "NEws" if it sup
poses that We are not in favor of equal
and exact justice to all-white and
black, rich and poor, employer and la
borer. But the laboriug classes are in
many 9nstanccs ignorant Of their rights,
and need protection and advice more
than do the Glasses by whom they are
employed. And we spoke in favor of
protecting those who most need proteo
tion, without any desire to ourtail the
rights ofothcrs.

criminally enforced, whether it be in
writing or not. 1t says that judges
Mickey, Graham and Mahcr have held
that the penal consequences of the law
follow only when the contract is in writ
ing. and that if the employer is sharp
enough to make his Contract by mere
word of mouth, and is disposed to cheat
his hands at the end of the year, there
is no law to punish him for so doing.
We find no fault with the Ne,cs for
insisting upon the full protection of L.

extent of the law. But we believe in
equal and exact justice to ALL It is not
the laborer alone that is che tied. The
landholder needs protection also. What
security has he after renting his land to
tenants that he will ever get one cent III

can answer We have no objection to
the Legislature throwing every possible
safeguard around tho laborcr, but we
ask that it lcgislate not for one class

our judgement it can not better advance
the interests Of the laboring classes than
by extending equal protection to the
rights of the owners of the soil

A San OCCURRENCE A white wo.

aboutJ Jiye miles below the town Of Un
ion, was burned to death last Friday.
She gns standing with her back to the
lire all child belonging to another
wonGrG in her arms when her Gle thes
caus fire. and in n minute the flames
ehv9 led her. Throwing the baby on
tnGf she ran out Of the house, but
:. i---.---.-.--=,r..s, ov uld-
ly burned that she died soon afterwards
On the following day the child was
found deal in the bed where it had
been thrown. At The coroncr's inouest
q sad condition Of aff,,irs was disclosed
1t appears that the mother of the child
could not give her baby sufficient nour
ishmcnt in cons, qucnce Of herself being
almost starving, and she had gone in
quest of food, leaving the baby in the
care Of the woman who was burnt. On
the return Of the mother tho excitement
in the house was SO great that she mere
ly threw the clothes over the child. The
child laid perfectly quiet all night, but
on examining it in the morning it was
found to be dead. There is no doubt
that its death was caused from want of
proper nourishment, together with
physical defect.
