A New Cattle Disease.

Within the last month DR.. Louis A.
Klein Of Clemson, the state veterin-
arlan, has received letters from a num-
Der of farmers concerning disease,
unfamiliar to them, which was causing
the death of their calves and yearling
cattle. This disease was manifested
by the following symptoms: Gradual
loss of condition and strength, with the
animals feeding we'll; a soft, sack-like
swelling under the jaw, which was not
hot or tender; scours; sometimes a wa
terry discharge from the eyes. The ami
mails usually lived one to three months
after being attacked. Only young cat.
lie were affected, even where the old
cattle used the same pasture and barn.
OF the cases reported only three re-
covered. On one farm the young cattle
mad been carried off in this way for
three years. Investigation of the dis
ease has not been completed, but on
several farms visited it was found that
the trouble was caused by small worIls.

New York, special.-Plans for or
ganizing the employers of labor in this
country to combat the labor unions
were considered at Thursdays session
of the Citizens Industrial Association
convention. Among the several ad-
dresses delivered was one by Daniel
Davenport, of Bridgeport Conn, exec
utive agent of the American Anti
Boycott Association. Mr.. Davenport's
topic was the purpose and work of the
American Anti-Boycott Association.
He told OF the suits against the United
Hatters, which, he said, had been of
great moral effect in bringing home to
workers responsibility for the boycott.
John Beattie, representative of the
Master Painters and Decorators Asso-
citation, speaking of the labor situation
in New York, said: Recently 1 asked
president Roosevelt, as an American
citizen. TO use his influence to put the
responsibility on labor unions, and he
said:
That's the thing that is needed
The report Of the committee on reso-
lutlcns as adopted re-affirms the OBJ
jects as adopted by the Chicago and
indianapolis conventions of the Cit
isens Industrial Association, and again
declares for "the open shop" De-
mandlng only good faith and fair deal
ing. it discriminates against neither
union nor independent labor.
THE freedom of the apprentice and
the right Of the individual to have
trade and follow It.
The right of private contract, with
equal obligation upon employer and
employees.
"The right to work.. limiting the
hours of labor whether of brain or Of
the hand as a matter OF mutual agree
ment, not subject-for arbitrary leg
enactment
the resolutions direct the executive
committee to take the necessary steps
to secure a proper channel of activity |
sor the correction of interested organ
cations with the Citizens Industrial |
Association Of America. The resolu-
ions oppose the Limitation which the
.rade union sets upon the number of
ssfTVffffg dfpfethe.s and fazars- the
evidence of the right to begin to prac-
tice trade.
The resolutions finally condemn the
policy Of trade unions in prohibiting
membership in the State militia, as DIS
loyal and dangerous.
II. f. Thompson. of Birmingham,
Ala. said in part: Politically you
sneak of the solid South. but there is
something solid in the South besides
that. 1t is the open shop That IS
fair to labor, because it asks nothing
hut merit and skill. There are cities
in the South that have not a single
union shop in them. Chattanooga IS
one of them. We are prepared in the
South to protect the open shop with
the same strength as we protect the
sanctity of the home, and we beg OF
you to do your duty as patriotic citl-
zens and make the North and the west
and the East just as solid against
trades unionism as we have made the
South"
David NJ. Parry, of Indianapolis. was
reelected president of the association.

St. Louis, Special.-A special from
Duquoin. ILL.,, says that it became
known there Wednesday that three
weeks ago Joseph Letter was indicted
Oh three counts on the charge OF
bringing armed men into the State,
contrary to recently passed statutes.
No attempt has been made to serve
the capias or to arrest Letter, because
States Attorney Scott will retire and
wishes to leave the case over for his
successor. Indictments have also
been returned against Attorney Henry
Platt, Of the Zeigler Mining Company.
The charge is taking armed men
through the State without permission
Of the Governor. There are three
counts IN the indictments.
The punishment for the offense on
which the two men have been indicted
is confinement in the .penitentlary
from one to five years, with no fac
as an alternative Union miners and
railroad men in charge OF the cars on
which 1t Is alleged imported miners
ede and we're guarded by armed men
were the witnesses before the grand
Jury.
Members of the executive board OF
tho United Mine Workers say that
loniescy vas given Letter and Plat
and that no one outside the grand
jury rscm knew that indictments had
been returned unit. the information
leaked out.
Thus far in the Zeigler trouble, one
man has been killed. That was on
November 18th, when n car load of
miners was icing imported and the
car was fired on from ambush, one
Austrian being fatally shot.
There are no recorss of any other
person even havingfi been injured.
A few have been waylaid and beaten,
but they were not in Zeigler. They
were men who had gone to some OF
the nearby towns where liquor Is sold
Attorney PIatU so, ..su-inna aarrest-ss
Zeigler had grown so bold and 1ssl haessl
become so desperate that shssanS|
Stein found it necessary to call out
the militia. All was quiet Wednes'
CAV night. Just what effect the pres
ence of the militia4nen will have On
The strike at the Zelgler coal mines
remains TO be seen. AT zeigler the
stockade is about 800 feet long and
400 feet wide. 1t Is tight board
fence abost fifteen feet high. At eacn
end at diagonal corners are 0locK-
ouses, in each of which Is a ma
chine gun. AS soon as the darkness
approaches these guns are placed IN
readiness for an attack. They are
used, too, Attorney Plat says, every
night. , .ho
There is probably no denying tne
fact that some shots are fired into
the stockade from ambush. 1t o. y
requires one shot for the men oe-
hind the machine guns to get IN ac-
tion. They send bullets into the trees
500 wards away like hail. Platt says
these shots from the machine guns
have been answered promptly.
