in the vicinity of Scranton are at
least twenty mills, where little girls
from u to Is or IA years of age. are
working ten and twelve hours a day,
and u hours a night as well. Is there
any so blind that he does not know
why the anthracite region is dotted
with silk mills. They went there be-
cause the miners were there. Every
mill in that region is a testimony to
the fact that the wages that you pay
are so low that you sell your boys to
be slaves of the breaker and your
girls to be slaves in the mills
when these railroad presidents
were finally called to book before the
President of the United States, one Of
them shed tears because the United
Mine Workers allowed these boys to
join their organization, because they
taught these poor babes doctrines of
anarchy and disobedience to law. This
railroad president shed tears because
the United Mine Workers were spoil
ing the souls of these poor children,
and yet he was willing to take the
earnings of these poor children, that
he and his family might be richer be-
cause of their toll. These men make a
living out of these children. and if
they can do nothing else in this re-
gion, this infamy should end. These
little children get $165 a year"
MIR. barrow quoted the late Abram
s. Hewitt, to the effect that during the
Molly Mcguire days he found men, in
the anthracite region 'living like pigs
and dogs under wretchedly brutal con-
ditions." and then took up the famous
order of the union for the steam men
to strike, and closed by saying;
IF these gentlemen were stupid
enough to let their mines fill up with
water, rather than grant this eight
hour day, all right. Keep still about
it. After you have done it, the more
you talk of it, the more contemplate
it makes you look in the eyes of all
men who think"

HEAVY RAINS AT sANDERsvILLE.
City Authorities Want Electric
Lights and Water Works.

Sandersville, Ca, Feb. 12.-Heavy
rains have recently fallen in this sec
ton of the state, and the two rivers.
Oconee and Ogeechee, that border this
county, are out of their banks. All
of the creeks have overlooked The
earth is so wet that farming opera
tons are being retarded, and swift
work will be essential to catch up
when the weather becomes more fav-
orstble.
Plans are now belpg considered by
the city authorities e Sandersville for
the erection of a system of electric
lights and water works. An election
will soon be held to determine whether
bonds for 100000 shall be issued for
this purpose, an estimate having been
made by "a competent civil engineer
that both could be constructed and
put in operation for a little less than
this amount. The people seem to be
almost unanimous in favor of these
needed enterprises and there is but lit
tie doubt Of the election being in favor
