AOsBY's RAIDERS. rs
Their Reunion Kevlves Memories of Their
Thrilling Career.

Apropos of the late reunion in Alex
andria, Va, of the survivors of Mosby's
partisan rangers. a letter to the Phila-
uelphia Press from that city says
When Mosby organized his hangers"
rs they were called. numbers of young
men, from the rich planters son to the
struggling store clerk, living in the
counties OF Loudoun, Fauquier. Gull

tiocked to his standard. This youthful
and impetuous band Of troopers, who
had, metaphorjcallv speaking, grown
up in the saddle were thoroughly famil-
lar with that romantic belt Of country
in whose streams they had tished, and
over the hills and through the valleys of
which they had hunted the fox, and
with a good horse under them. and a
brace of pistols in their belt, they be-
came perfect darc-devils under Mosbv's
intrepid leadership. and to execute his
plans would run the risk of being cap
tnred OF shot with an abandon that was
us gay as ii was reckless.
Mosby aimed to do on land what Ad-
miral Semnles did on the high seas,
though on a much smaller scale. His

their progress by tearing up the rail-
roads and other schemes OF strategy, to-

ed, sometimes surprising y whole regi-

the southern army materially in the
early stages of the late war, and proved
him to be a genius in that mode of war
fare. AT the close of the war Mosby
was an idol in Virginia aud could have
had any honor within the gift of her
people. Neither the prestige of the
~governorship nor that of the United
States senate would have been beyond
his reach, probably. But when he re-
pudiated the principles of the confeder-
acy and wore allegiance to Gen. Grant,
his popularity began to wane. his
friends and admirers gave him the cold
shoulder. and il a few years his name,
that had been on so many tongues, lost
its magic.
The result was he abandoned what

brary some time during the latter part of
this month or early in January to discuss
the proposed legislation. Mr.. B. H. War
ner of this city win preside at the meeting.
1t is stated that there is now no provision
for the restriction of labor on the part of
those of tender years In the District. There
Is a compulsory education law the stat
ute books but it is defective. so 1t IS stated,
and Commissioner Mcfarland said yester-
day that the law has not been and cannot
be enforced.
The board of education took up the mat
ter some time ago, and the result was that
a bill to provide for the compulsory educa-
ton of children under certain age-the
age limit IN force In other cities-was draft
ed and submitted to the District Commits
sioners. Commissioner Macfarland ap-
: proved of the measure, which is now before
the other members of the board. No action
has been taken in regard to 1t. The meas
ure. while explicit upon the question of edu-
cation of the young, makes no mention of
the labor problem involved.
Recently more complete scheme for the
protection of the children of the city was
laid before the president of the board by
Mrs. Robert l.. OBrien of the Civic Center.
q charitable organization of which but little
has been heard. but which has been doing
considerable work among children for
number of years.
The suggestions of the society contain
provision for a child labor law, and it Is in
this connection that the mass meeting at
the city library building is to be called.
The census Office figures regarding child
labor in the District are incomplete, but 1t
Is estimated that there are in the District
between 400 and 500 newsboys and messen-
gers and probably 2.00O children employed
as errand boys. bundle wrappers. cash girls
and In similar capacities In the city's big
stores. This makes total of $500 children
employed at labor, to which must be added
the number OF children employed as d0mes-
tics and as nurses. These latter are prac-
tically all coiored. while the first mentioned
are nearly all white. The grand total, 1t is
believed, will not exceed 1000.

which encompass the collection of news.

1t would not Willingly give currency TO IN
fair or Injurious assertions regarding any

are instructed that fake stories" are not
wanted by this newspaper; that we have
neither the space to spare nor the money to
expend for them. We do desire reliable In
formation. and In our mission to procure it
we cheerfuily disburse a very large sum
annually.
But. despite our endeavor, two or three
things have happened lately which have
caused us considerable annoyance. One was
the publication of an interview whose ac-
curacy was questioned. but the truth of
which we were In a position to substanti-
ate If necessity required. Another was the
announcement that Mr.. Wells was the
choice OF Mayor Collins for the first va
cancy on the board of police. And the third
was the turkey story" relative to the do
ings of the Presidents children. In most
courteous note we were informed that the
Wells statement rested on no basis what
ever and yet II came to this office backed
by such authority that its publication was
assurediy warranted. The turkey story
was related by Washington correspondent
to one of our reporters and was sent over
in good faith Candor compels us to say
that it was not worth telegraphing. None
of these publications, so Tar as our fnvesti-
cation goes, was prompted by malice. and
we hope 1t is well understood that the Her

permitted to be the vehicle for the outpour-
ings of any mans malicious pen.
The President errs in bis statement that
the reported Thanksgiving turkey incident
was the subject of editorial comment In the
Herald. It has not been commented upon
or alluded to in any way in our editorial
columns The comment quoted by the
President appeared In a special department
of this paper that is not editorial, but In
dividual, and which bears the pseudonym
of the writer thereof. The Presidents error
seems to warrant the inference that even
he gets missnformed occasionally.
