Records Versus Rhetoric.

mark Hanna, Charles NJ. Schwab, j.
Pierpont Morgan and the Rockefellers
as the friends and well wishers of the
make men wonder"
So said Norman L. Mack of the Buff
falo Times when asked what he
thought Of the conference between cap
ital and labor.
"Men who have squeezed fully two
and half billions of dollars from the
necessities of all and the toll of the
laborer," he continued, nov come here
and loudly pledge their friendship.
1T means that these farseeing phi
lanthropsts are beginning to see a
great light. / trust the laborer will
gain something from the conference,
but would it be uncharltable, would it
show doubling nature, if one Were TO
whisper to organized labor, Don't be
deluded into buying any gold bricksY
"There are great and good men on
the committee selected" said Mr..
Mack, but there are some others who
have better claims to greatness than
to goodness. Does anybody seriously
believe that Mark Hanna or Morgan
or the Rockefellers have any friendship
for the laboring man? They have not
proved it in the past thirty or forty
years and wise man can judge better
by the acts of forty years of oppres-
sion as against two days Of rhetoric."-

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

A vigorous, thrifty standard pear
tree will bear every year.
Lack of fibrous roots is one cause of
many transplanted trees failing to
grow.
A sod furnishes great protection to
the roots of the trees against injury by
freezing.
Intensive cultivation of the young or
chard makes a vigorous growth of the
side roots.
In making an overcrop it costs the
tree more TO ripen the seeds than to
make the fruit.
Peach trees should have the ends Of
long shoots shortened, so that bushy
trees may result.
Plant few fruit trees of different
varieties every year, and your orchard
will never be old.
1t is sometimes hard to get new
tree TO grow thrifty when surrounded
by those in bearing.

Color Question and the Federation

The result OF the contest over the
seating of the Richmond delegates to
the recent annual convention of the
American Federation of Labor is not
all that the colored men asked, but it
involves more distinct recognition Of
colored labor than has hitherto been
given The delegation from Richmond,
which refused to affiliate with colored
labor, was admitted, but the conven-
ton authorized the organization Of a
separate central union for colored la
Dor in that city.
Colored workingmen are refused adj
mission to the white unions OF Rich
mond, but they can form an organiza-
ton of their own which will be recog-
niZed by the American Federation of
Labor. Southern white workinglnen
can draw the color line in their local
organizations, but the national organ
ization in its own field will ignore that
distinction This seems to be the plain

CHILD LABOR LAWS.
Three Main Grounds of Argument
For Them In the south.

Three Main Grounds of Argument
For Them In the south.
The Rev. C. B. Wilmer Of Atlanta,
Ga, writes that great efforts are being
made in his state by organized labor
and philanthropists in all walks of life
to have the next Legislature pass a
child labor bill. The news is gratifying
to all who hope for the continued ad-
vancement of the human race. While
there are many good people in this
world who sit with folded hands wait.
ing for the Bible promised millennium
there is some satisfaction in knowing
that there are others who work and
work hard to hasten its coming.
A bill has been prepared i'll Georgia
which is notable for the moderation
with which it seeks to change present
conditions. Its provisions are, substan-
TALLY and in brief: No child under
twelve to be employed in manufactur-
ing establishments unless there is
widowed mother or invalid father de-
pendent on such child for support; no
child under ten to be so employed un-
der any circumstances; no child under
fourteen TO be employed ut night, or
in the daytime unless able to read and
write simple sentences in English this
latter provision not to go into effect un-
til January, 1903.
There are three good reasons why
child labor should be protected in the
south. From the viewpoint of the man
ufacturers, on the confession of sew
eral of their number, intelligent and
educated working people are necessary
in the south if the south would com
pete successfully with the north in the
textile industry. 1t is impossible to
have intelligent and educated working
people If the rising generation is put to
work at Il tender age.
The public generally in the south
cannot too warmly support laws for
the protection of the physical and men-
tai health of children, for a nation or
a section Of nation must have healthy
men and women to be prosperous and
happy. Puny mill workers do not grow
into the best citizens.
And the north, the working people of
the New England and middle states,
has grave reasons for being interested
in the passage of child labor laws in
Georgia, Alabama and other trans
Mason and Dixon line states. Child la
Dor means cheap labor in the sense
that 1t is poorly paid. While such
cheap labor does not win out in the
long run, it unsettles prices and paves
the way for wage cuttings.
The battle for humanity Is waging in
England, competitor in the worlds
markets. The battle is waging in the
north, also competitor in the worlds
mark cts. But the south cannot afford
to jeopardiZe the health of its people
in attempting to act 'as temporary
world competitor. 1t must build solidly
for the future.
Let the working people of the United
States strengthen the arms of the
American Federation of Labor for the
good work which it is doing to organ
lie labor in the south.-Henry John
Neeson in Philadelphia North Amerl-
can.

MERIT MEDALS FOR
SERVICE IN THE NAVY
Four to Be Awarded for
West Indian Campaign.

The Naval Board of Awards has de-
cided to recommend that only four meri-

to naval officers who served in tie West
Indian campaign in 1898. The recipients
are:
Naval Constructor Richmond Pear
son Hobson. for the Merrimac exploit
Lieut.. Henry H. Ward, for his con-

Lieut.. William H. Buck. who followed
Admiral Camara's squadron from the
time it left Spain until it reached the

Lieut. Victor Blue. who distinguished
himself by his scouting operations
around Santiago before Skaters army
arrived.
The language of the law providing for
comforting these medals restricted
awards to naval men who had served in

decided that although Lieutenant Buck
services were not in the West Indies.
they had a bearing on the operations in
