PRINTING STRIKE NEWS.

The Civic Federation Of New England
raises objection to the act of news
papers in devoting space and large head
lines to strikes, claiming that such an
oct tends to further inhame the spirit
OF the belligerents. The position of the
federation is well taken insofar as It
refers to those newspaper reports which
deliberately distort the facts 80 as to
make them fiction. II Is possible to
further foment discord by repeatedly
holding UP to the public gaze any dis
agreement between capital and labor. IN
these two particulars the contention il
well put. But as for complete neglect
Of strike news, it would be neither fair
nor polite on the part Of the news
papers In keeping faith with their
readers they are hound to inform them
Of any momentous changes in relations
between labor and capital, as they would
give information regarding a railroad
wreck or matters Of legislation. But
they can, and should, place those labor
difficulties before their readers IN can
did, unbiased manner. With the Fed
Grafton there can be no quarrel on that
score. In order to get this candid, I'M
biased report most newspapers endeav-
or to get both sides of the controversy
and then give the public what they con
slider to be fair representation Of the
situation. 10 further avoid the posi-
bilitg Of conveying an unfair impress
sion many newspapers print statements
Of the opposing forces and label them
e such When that is done there is
40 need Of rehashing the controversy,
we'll admit, except as new phases de.
velop, which will have direct bearing
on the settlement Of the trouble. How
ever, to ask the newspapers to avoid
printing anything concerning strikes
would be asking something unreason-
able.

Of $1,000 be turned over to the state

which another is TO be substituted.

TO THE VOTERS OF NORTH
CAROLINA.

A game is being played in the East
by a ctrtain Railroad Attorney that Is
ruinous to the peoples interest. This
Attorney is writining to railroad at
torneys and their friends all over the
east to be on the alert and see that
their delegates are Instructed to vote
fer Mr.. Mcneil for corporation COM
mission. Why are the railroads
through their attorney at work Tor MIR.
Mcneil? The question needs no an
swer. When my two and one hall
cent railroad fare bill! was before the
Senate committee composed OF rail-
road lawyers, did not the railroad at
torneys argue to that committee that
it was the duty of the Corporation
Commission to leasen rates and not
the Legislature? That the Corporation
Commission was created tor this pur-
pose? Did the vote In the House OF
REPRESENTATIVES of "a for and 81
against show to the Corporation Com
mission whether the people wanted it
or not9 What did the Corpor alton
Commission do? They disregarded
the voice of the people spoken through
The House of Representatives and did
what the railroad attorneys in the Sen
ate wanted them to do. They did
nothing, The people want some one
who will do something. The people
think that an infusion OF some new
blood in that Commission will do good.
Those that are satisfied with 81 cents
rate and big freight rates vote for the
same old Commission. Those that
want lower tares and freight rates
vote for Jacob A. Long.
The present Commission by their
action say the dividends declared by
the owners Of railroads are not tex
graet; therefore, passenger and freight
rates must be kept up, and accommo
dations kept down and labor squeezed
and worked Is to 90 hours out OF d
That owners who water their stock
may get en- ormous dividends from
stock created out of Ink and paper.

The Harvest Moon.

The harvest moon is the name
given to the full moon that falls
nearest to the autumnal equinox
1t rises for several successive even
ings at nearly the same hour, Civ
ing to that month an unusual num-
Der of moonlight nights. 1t is
caused by the fact that the full
moon is at that season in that part
Of its orbit which makes the least
possible angle with the eastern hori-
zon at the point where the moon
rises. The harvest moon is not
known in tropical countries and is
more marked in higher latitudes
than with us, although we recognize
and appreciate the beauty of the
phenomenon. Occurring, as it does,
at the time of harvesting, it has
borrowed from the coincidence the
pretty name by which it is known.

move Srease SPots'
Papered walls may be cleaned
with mop of cheesecloth strips an
inch and a half wide and eight
inches long, made fast to light
handle. Brush the paper well with
it twice a month.
Every spring and fall mix corn
starch, whiting and powdered full
ier's earth in equal parts, dip the
mop into the powder and rub the
walls and ceilings well with it. Then
shake all the powder from the mop,
cover it with damp flannel and go
all over the wall again, wiping in
long, straight strokes. The flannel
must be damp only. If wet it is apt
to leave marks. As soon as it is
dirty change it for a fresh one.
Thick crust slices from stale
bread also will clean wall paper.
