Roosevelt Up a Tree.

Meeker, COL, January 1s.-If Col.
Roosevelt had an idea he had escaped
from the strenuous life," the wild
game of Colorado is rapidly taking
that conceit out of him. Flrt came
his exciting adventure with noun
tain lion, then grizzly came near
getting him, and now pack of hun
cry wolves has kept the Rough
Rider cup tree" until help came to
his rescue.
The weather turned colder about
the keystone ranch on Wednesday,
which led the guide to prophesy the
appearance of wolves among the
stock that night. On Thursday Col.
Roosevelt wandered out alone in the
hope of shooting something before
supper. He espied a small lion, and
in attempting to creep upon it lost
his bearings in the fast. falling dark
ness. He attempted yainly to retrace
his steps. Finally his peril became
apparent to him, as he heard the
long, melancholy howl of a wolf
behind him, followed by others. He
soon discovered, it is alleged, that a
pack of fully one hundred were at
his heels. Several times the Colonel
fired at the approaching horde, but a
temporary stay was all he gained,
and his shots attracted no attention
from his friends.
Shooting again, the Colonel seized
the opportunity Of "shinning" up a
tall pine, while the pack devoured
its dead comrade. But in doing so
the New Workers. cartridg belt was
torn from his waist by the stub of a
bough and dropped TO the ground,
his gun being lost also in the attempt
to regain the belt. There was not
time to descend, as the pack now
was surrounding the tree in large
numbers, their eyes cleaning fiercely
in the darkness.
His six-shooter yet remained and
Roosevelt enjoyed a melancholy
amusement in killing few Of his
foes in safety. Fortunately he was
beyond the leaps of the more daring
wolves, who sprang swapping at him.
The hours wore on, and still aid did
not arrive. He yelled until he was
hoarse, but there was no reply, and
the cold soon began to benumb him,
while hunger made itself felt.
His watch had just showed him
that four hours had been passed in
the tree, when shouts were heard,
and his comrades, with guns and
torches, appeared and soon dispersed
the pack and assisted the half-frozen
statesman to descend from his peril.

Sensible Suggestion.

Circumstances frequently alter
cases. While, as general rule

tries, has much to commend it, there
are numerous families so situated
that the proceeds from the labor of
their children is necessary to their
support. That being the case, a
general prohibition of child labor
may work much hardship in many
instances, unless the State be will
ing and able to contribute to the
support of families in a measure
dependent upon the earnings of chill
dren. 1t seems that Col. D. A.
Tompkins, of Charlotte, one of the
most prominent cotton manufacture
ers of the South, has suggested a
plan which will reach the real evil
sought to be suppressed better than
a general sweeping prohibition OF
child labor. He favors the enact
ment of labor law containing the
following section:
"Any parent putting any of hif
children in the mill and living or
the proceeds himself, or doing less
work than is adequate to his own
support, shall be punished as a va.
grant, and for one year after his con.
viction the earnings Of the children
may be paid to the mother, or, if she
be not living, to the children them.
selves"
Such a law would reach the sore
spot and do good. The Record

Assembly of this State as eminently
practical, the suggestion of level
headed and big-hearted man thor.

Be Fair 70 All.

There is multiplicity of pro-
posed legislation affecting the cotton
mills of this State. The reason of
all this is plain enough. There are
many thousand voters employed in
the cotton mills of this State and a
legislator with the least faint of
demagogy in his composition finds it
hard to resist the temptation to pro-
pose or advocate special legislation
in behalf of mill operatives, with the
idea that by such course he will
solidify for himself the support of
the mill operative voters. Such
men are not as careful as they
should be. If a measure is said to
be in behalf of mill operatives, they
support it without stopping to con-
slider whether its real effect will be
beneficial to that GLASS or not. Real
effect and theoretical effect are not
always the same. Sometimes there
is wide difference. This fact should
not be lost sight Of. There are
measures proposed for which there
is no demand whatever from factory
operatives. They should know their
own needs best and can be depended
upon to demand what their interests
require. They do not ask to be
killed with kindness. They do not
need mollycoddling. There is no
reason why they should be separated
as class and made wards of the
State. Such legislation must be
obnoxious to self-respecting mill
operatives. They only ask the same
treatment accorded to other classes
of citizens. They do not expect or
demand special favors. If demand
for legislation comes from the opera
tives it will be time enough to act
on it then and pass such measures as
will be equitable to all the interests
involved. But, all sides should be
carefully looked at.-Columbia Daily
Record.
