A FALSE PICTURE
+. II. AULL, EDITOR.

1t is seldom that reputable journal
prints as grea, number of falsehoods in
one short article as were contained in
an article which appeared in the last is
sue of Golfers Weekly, describing the
condition of the mill people in the South.
1t was distorted and discolored from
start to finish, and where it touchod up
on the subject contained hardly aline of
truth.
The writer of the article, who is a
woman, claims that under an assumed
name she worked in the cotton mills Of
South Carolina and ''saw the inside of
the cheerlcss existence" of the South
ern mill women. Here is one sentence
in which she describes the condition of
the average woman operative: "After
a year or two in the mills Der face has
hardened; her eyes grow vigilant. If
she has any morals left she will become
fighter, adefendcr of herself. Whether
yielding or imprcgnable, Jennie in GER
tain settlements carries a knife in the
belt of her wrapper" The journal in
which this appeared has an immense
circulation, reaching almost every part
Of the country. 1t is probable that
even now the North is cxpending car
loads Of "pity" for the Southern mill
women, and that in various sections
movements are on foot ito lift them
from their pitablc condition..
1t IS Il great pity that the sympathies
Of our Northern brethren should be SO
misdirectcd. In this State, at least
the mill people arc contcntcd and pros
porous and form aclass of citizenship far
more worthy than that in which the
writer Of the article containing the
above sentence should be placed. The
writer mentions that "a certain South
ern city would esteem my life very
lightly if should enter 1t under my
own NAME Il she received any con-
Sidcration at all in any Southern city.
it would be as an OBJ icct of wonder on
account Of her ability maliciously to
ialSify.
