A CASE OF RACE PREJUDICE.

Here is an item from the Independ.
ent, newspaper published at Waynes.
burg, Pa, and as this comes from one
of the upper tier of States that has al
ways time to talk of the hot heads OF
the South it is reprinted so that the
other side of the question may be
viewed for awhile. The local reads:
Leslie Howard of Littleton, cor
poral in COMPANY d of the National
Guard in camp at Huntington, came
| near having his neck stretched by his
comrades in arms last night While a
party of soldiers with ladies were in
| an ice cream saloon. in steps Corporal
| Howard accompanied by two coal
black negro WencheS who sat down to
| a table and ordered refreshment The
| soldiers present arose as one man and
| hustled the party out of the room.
While they were forcing Howard to a
| tree with a rope ready for lynching
officers interfered and prevented a
tragedy.
Howard was put in the guard
house and will be courtmartialed and
dismissed from service"
Now, here is a race prejudice in
Pennsylvania, and not because of any
thing but the color of the skin, that
thing which is harped upon when the
South is held up as a terrible ex-
ample" by a certain class of Northern
papers, simply because the Southern
er has the pride of birth and does
not believe in the social mingling of
the white man and the negro.
Here is the REPUBLICAN, State of
Pennsylvania with something like
100000 Republican majority, and here
are those white men in Pennsylvania
acting just like a lot of Southern men
would do under similar circumstances,
barring the lynching in which the
Pennsylvania went just little be
yant'' the Southerner.
1t is now for Corporal Howard to
| call upon President Roosevelt to keep
the bars away from the "open door
of hope and lambast these Pennsyl-
yania soldiers who strenuously ended
| the little social equality performance
of the corporal, and were close to do
| ing the lynching act in the heat OF
their indignation.
Here is a chance for Roosevelt to
clinch some more negro votes in the
doubtful States Just think how it
would help him if he would summari-
ly hold a court martial and Jack up
these young Pennsylvania National
Guardsmen. Surely as the Command
erin Chief of the Army of the United
States he is not in a mood to permit
white soldiers to slam shut the door
on a negro officer, that sef-same door
| of social equality having been opened
by the Commander-in-Ch by the
Booker T. route? The negro waits
| for the silence at Sycamore Hill to
break!

THE TEACHINGS OF LABOR.

Labor is the great heritage of the
edict has been made a laboring race.
"By the sweat of thy brow was
meant for eternity.
The world has grown and develop
ed because of labor and the monu-
ments to the industry of man are
to be seen wherever man is found. no
matter where the land or who the
men. The greater the development
of the country, the greater the labor,
the greater the men.
And the civilized man is the great
est laborcr Of ALL for the labor of his
hands is economical by the labor Of
his brain. skilled hand backed by
a skilled brain overcomes all obstacles,
sets the world moving at the swiftest
of electric speed and promises greater
and greater advancement as the cycles
of the years pass.
Monday was Labor Day. in this
country, and it was celebrated in be-
coming fashion. Those to whom the
day came as Il rest sought divertise-
ment and relaxation in sports. while
on many of these festal occasions the
workers gathered about some orator
and in his words saw fresh fields of
industry and heard told OF the place
of Labor in the world for it's better
ments The laboring man who must
work on Labor Day" contributed his
share in the progress of the world
Labor has as it's basic structure
manhood and when one studies the
life o9 to-day he will find that the
condition of the laboring man is be-
ing improved because Of the laboring
man himself. He has seen the trend
of the age. He is educating himself
and his children. He IS recognizing
that tho educated brain is the best
aid to the educated hand. and be-
cause he is putting this into execution
his condition is steadily and regular
II improving.
Organized labor has done much for
the individual in that it has taught
him that the best must succeed, that
the drones must fall by the way side.
1t is TO organized labor that the credit
belongs for the annual observance of
Labor Day." and as this comes year
by year more and more the world
stops TO think Of the Importance of
labor
The lessons of the day are easy
ones. They mean that the laboring man
should seek for the best that is to be
had in his vocation. that he should
mot be content to stay at the bottom.
When he rises he should remember
his struggles and reaching back he
should help others UP the hill with
him. These are the two lessons, then,
the striving after the greatest i'm
movement in hand and mind, the Gull
tivation of a spirit of help to others.
If these are learned the annual cele-
bration will have we'll served its pur-
nose for it will have made a higher
strata of manhood. of the manhood
that labors.

An important Decision.

Three opinions we're filed in the su
preme court Tuesday by Justice Eu-
gene B. Gary, but only one was Of
public interest. This was the case
of Lockwood VS.. Lockwood. William
Fl. Lockwood was for many years pro-
prietor of the Bank Of Beaufort, a
private institution. He died July %,
1902, being teState and solvent. There
were many claims against his bank
and among these were the claims OF
II. O. Adams, county treasurer (S4,-
lS7.39.) and George Gage, clerk and
treasurer Of the city of Beaufort (Sl,-
351.77). These two depositers claimed
preference over other creditors saying
that the moneys they wished to recov-
er were public funds. They were sus-
tained in this contention by the cir
cult Judge. Appeal was made, the
only question raised being whether or
not the judge was right in sustaining
this claim. The appellants maintain
ed that the sums deposited were In
the names Of Adams and Gage as
treasurers, and this fact should give
them no preference. Judge Gary sus-
tains the lower court, giving several
authorities and also citing section
1858 of the code Of laws. The funds
were net the actual properties OF these
treasurers, he says, and they could not
have drawn upon them in their indi-
vidual capacity, some recognition Of
their official status being necessary.
Public funds have preference in cases
Of this kind.

Strikes Cost Money.

The New York state board Of medi-
alton has recently published an annual
report. Up to September, 1903, there
were more strikes, lockouts and labor
troubles in general in New York than
in any previous year, excepting per-
haps the year 1886. During the past
wear there were 1872 labor troubles,
involving 1l7,000 employees, and in
consequence 100000 working days
were lost. Owing TO the New York
building trades strikes 81, laborers
we're idle, the total less in wages
amounting to nearly seven million
dollars. This is a terrible showing
as to results Of such labor movements,
and is a very potent argument in fa-
vor of arbitration in such matters.
