A POOR POLICY.

This might well be called the age
oil criticism. Criticism may in fact
be too kind a term to apply to the
abuse which it has become the daily
custom Of SO many newspapers to
heap upon men in positions Of pub
lie trust. II is hard to believe. after
reading one Of these papers for any
length OF time, that the United
States contains a public official. from
village Marshal to President Of the
Republic, who is honest, competent
and possessed of high ideals. Now
every honest citizen land they are
legion deplores the alarming pre-
valence OF public dishonesty and
corrupt methods among legis-
latures and officials and would
have the press Of the land fcarlessly
expose and condemn every man who
mas really betrayed the public faith
Or misused public funds. But it is
not reasonable TO believe that all
men in public service are bad or
mat al public tasks are badly per
formed. Sometimes, and far more
lo'ten than we give credit for, a thing

LABOR IN THE SOUTH.

There is no %gainsaying the fact
that in the South labor is free and
independent, and it is to this fact
more than any other that Southern
industries are in a hourishing con-
dition.
In the North and East, the walk
ing delegate and his followers have
50 annoyed employers that many Of
them have almost lost hope Of ever
maintaining peaceful relations with
their employees
That this is true is shown in the
expressed determination of several
Eastern cotton mill men TO transfer
their interests TO the South rather
than longer submit TO the arbitrary
methods Of the labor organizations.
They feel that down here they
will MOI be at the mercy Of agitators
who live BY melting trouble between
employe and employer.
They have found, by observation
and inquiry, that much Of the sue
cess Of the Southern mill men is
directly attributable to the freedom
Of their employees from unionism,
and they are sbrcwd enough to take
advantage Of this fact.
No fair-minded employer wants 10
see labor deprived Of its Just re-
wards, for contented and well-paid
employees bring profit to themselves
and to their employer, but the meth
DDS pursued by the unions in many
OF the Northern and Eastern indus
trial centers breed dissatisfaction
among employers and bring want
and penury to labor. =
Unionism may come South when
our manufacturing resources are
more fully developed, and no one
objects to its coming so long as the
walking delegate and the agitator
are left at home.

The lynchlng zone seems to be
without metes and bounds. The
mob that lynchcd a negro in Spring
field, Ohio, last week committed an
outrage as bloody as has ever been
committed in any section Of the
country. But this crime against
law and human rights, the taking Of
one negro's life, did not satisfy the
mob, and on the night following the
negro district Of the city was burned
TO the ground. No such outrage
has ever occurred in any Southern
community. Negroes have been
lynched in the South, but when that
was done the mobs have dispersed
They have never yet extended their
vengeance to the innocent ones of
the race. Il
