The large sums it costs the coun.
ty to try petty larceny cases, should
result in trying them in the Num-
cipal Court. Several cases which
have been tried IN the May term in
the Superior Court, where the tri-
fling articles cost the county from
$50 to $50 to try the same. Take
the trial OF jonas Heck, who was
tried at this term for stealing a
glass jar containing quart of milk
not costing IS cents. His trial cost
the county at least $50, as well as
several hours OF the courts time.
Then again take the trial of the
young man charged with stealing
turkey. The case occupied three
days and the man discharged, as
there was no evidence. The tur-
key cost 81. SO, the trial $3.50 The
case should not have been presented
to the grand jury. Dozens OF cases
are sent to the upper courts by the
Mag istr ates who should finally dis
pose of them. This is one of many
cases where the tax payers are
compelled to foot bills that should
not have been incurred.

The new county work house will
be ready for occupancy, it is sup
posed by September. The down
State members of the Legislature
were much impressed with the
buildings when they made visit
j.. in January and they then realized
what a mistake it had been not to
make it a State institution. The
Kent and Sussex county jails are
in bad repair and new buildings
are badly needed. These jails are
not fit to confne long term prison
ers in. 1t would not be a surprise if
the New Castle county workhouse
would not yet be made State In
sttution. The institution is a cred.
it to those who built it as it was
badly needed to conGne the long
term prisoners in. 1t is money
we'll spent.

by an honest majority at the Re-
publican primary election. There
is not one Objectionable candidate
on the ticket. Through dissensious
at the last city election, the Re-
publicans had two candidates In

was that the Democr ats elected DR..

Council is necessary to stop the

800, 900 stares the tax payers in
the face, which will necessitate an
increased taxrate. The Democrat

The Department Of Agriculture
is giving consideration to the ques-
ton of establishing industrial viii
lagos in Porto Rico. The manu-
facture of hats, straw goods and
mattings. the production of raw
silk and the canning OF tropical
fruits are examples OF beneficial
employment. The idea is to give
profitable employment to the wives
and children Of farm laborers. so
that the earning ability OF the home
may be increased. Then, if the
head Of the family fails to provide
tor his family, the home is not de-
stroyed. The idea is to bring the
mountain population to the village
and teach all the elements of civil.
izafion. The country is very rich
and good crops can be raised with
out much tllling.

ANOTHER great strike that promises
to paralyze the iron and steel working
industries Of the country and to af-
feet all interests dependent upon these
industries, went into effect Monday.
For several days President Shaffer and
other representatives Of the Amalga-.
mated association has been in confer
ence with representatives Of the Amer
lean Steel Hoop company, the Ameri-
can Sheet Steel company, and the
American Tin Plate company, all Of
the United States Steel corporation.
The matters of isue have been hours
Of labor. scale of wages, and complete
recognition Of the Amalgamated as
sociation by the representatives Of the
American Steel corporation. There was
practical agreement upon all points ex-
cept the claim of the steel companies
Of their right to employ men who were
not affiliated with the Amalgamated
association. President Shaffer and his
colleagues held to all of their demands,
and as the result sent out last Satur-
day notices to their men everywhere
not to appear for work Monday. AL
together more than $4,000 men were
directly affected by these orders, and
it is confidently expected that the
strike will extend to the coal mines,
the transportation lines and kindred in
dustries. The daily papers of Mon
day and Tuesday are full OF items
bringing information Of strikes from
all parts of the country, and the situa-
tion is daily growing more serious.

HAS COME TO STAY.

Corn shredding is no longer an ex-
pertinent in the Gold Hill section of
Fort Mill township. A number of the
most progressive farmers Of that neigh
borhood have given the new forage a
thorough trial, and they are satisfied
with the result.
# do not think there will be much
more fodder pulling in our neighbor-
hood" said Mr.. B. M. Faris to the re-
porter last Friday. II am certain there
will be no more 80 far as am concern
ed, for 7 am convinced that the stover
to be had out Of a corn crop Is worth
more than the corn itself.
II fell into corn shredding more by
accident than by design" Mr.. Faris
my corn crop Of two years
ago was pretty nearly failure. and In
the hope Of making it 60 farther cut
1t down and hauled it right from the
field. Having plenty of barn room 1t
was my intention to leave the fodder
to cure, and use the corn as needed.
Afterward the shredder people came
around and I had it shredded. The
previous treatment Of the crop gave
me the best kind Of stover and was
so we'll pleased with 1t that last year
I shredded my entire crop. I shall con-
tinue to do the same thing"
Mr.. Faris gave the names Of quite a
number of his neighbors who have
drifted into the shredding method Of
treating their corn crops, and said that
he did not know one who was not well
satisfied. He stated that the price OF
stover in his neighborhood ranged from
SO to SIS a ton, the purchasers, OF
course, buying as cheaply as they could
and the sellers getting all that the for
age would bring. There Is no fixed
price.

THE hope Of the Democratic party"
says Senator Daniel, lies in the fu-
ture. We should meet present condi-
tions and not be bound by past plat
forms. The Ohio Democratic platform
seems to be an effort in this direction"
dispatch to the Charlotte
Observer.
And according to some Of those who
would continue to boss things in South
Carolina, Senator Daniel would not be
eligible for candidacy in our senatorial
primary on the ground that he is not
a Democrat. The able Virginian, how
ever, sees the drift of things as well
as does Senator McLaurin. The only
difference is that Senator McLaurin
spoke and acted first.
