NIAGARA Falls.

Niagara Falls are among Natures
greatest feats and form the Nations
most colossal cataract. Their fame
extends the world over. Great num-
hers view them yearly. Even many
West Virginians have travelled to see
them and behold them with awe. so
dear have they become to the Nation
that but few men would have them
DESTROYED. Those who would think
more of their purse than of Natures
great work. There is great danger
of their being diverted to any thing
esIe than the beautiful natural crea-
ton they are. Their preservation
Is of national concern. The matter
is before Congress. West virgin
ians should join the movement TO
induce Congress to preserve them
That the office of the Secretary OF
War has been the recipient OF many
communications in reference to the
preservation of Niagara Falls Is
learned on very good authority. The
American Civic Association has
brought to bear on Secretary TAFT
the same popular sentiment which
crowded the Burton Bill through
Congress last spring. Letters and
kilograms have been pouring in for
two weeks past and their volume in

Child Labor Law.

That child labor is great crime
America should no longer commit no
man OF common sense and good
heart viii gainsay. 1t is not seen SO
much here and is not so greatly inn
pressed, perhaps, on the minds OF
our own people as a crime, sin
against nature, but, nevertheless In
the great centers Of population, we
all are told, it exists under the most
horrifying conditions and to the most
deplorable degree, ultimately de-
stroying American manhood, woman
hood and good citizenship. 1t is lit
tie wonder then that advanced
thinkers and those with the future
of this country close at heart should
talk of drastic measures to prevent
child labor. or course, these meas
ures, II made law, are to apply them
selye sto public works and not to the
rural pursuits, as there is nothing
better for the boy and girl on the
farm than to devote themselves dur
ing vacations to light outdoor work.
such as our fathers taught us aud
had us to do.
1t is a matter of encouragement
and rejoicing to learn that national
efort is to be made to break up
child labor in the factories, the
mines, the sweatshops and all other
public works, and assurance comes
that it is to be accomplished since
that brainy young American states
man, Senator Beveridge, of Indiana
publicly DECLARES he Will father such
a bill In the next Congress and use
all his might and main to push 1t to
enactment. Senator Beveridge will
also undertake to improve the meat
iuspection bill so as to be more pro-
tective OF the people.
senator Beveridge says his child
law labor bill will provide that no
railroad, steamship, steamboat or
olher carrier of interstate commerce
shall transport or accept for trans
portation the product of any factory
or mine that employs children under
IA years of age. The bill he said
wouI dprovfde that every carrier of
interstate commerce shall require an
af3davit from every factory or mine
owner of shipping product that he
does not employ children under IL
wears of age, the form of affidavit to
be prescribed by the department of
commerce and labor and interstate
commerce commission with heavy
penalties, both civil and criminal, for
violation of the law. The bill, if it
becomes law, he believes, will stop
the practice of running our future
citizenship by working children Of
tender age in factories and mines.
There is no other way to reach
the growing evil. A federal statute
cannot be passed directly controlling
the factories and mines IN the states.
That is province of the states. But
Congress has absolute power over
the railroads, boats. ships and other
agencies of interstate commerce and
unlimited power under the constttu-
ton to provide they shall not carry
the products of factories and mines
which employ children.
The bill to amend the meat inspee-
ton law will require the putting oil
date of inspections on every can OF
meat product, and the packers to pay
the cost of inspection. These two
provisions are demanded by the peo-
p1e. and agitation for them will not
cease until the provisions become
part of the law.

no interest. The only thing they
do have is a mere existence.
The Charleston Mail has very
good article on this subject as fol-
lows:
"some additional orders have been
issued to the police about the loaf
ers who seem to be unusually nu-
merous in Charleston. The demand
for labor is reported to be greater
than the supply and yet quite con
siderable number OF men, white and
coIored. seem to have ample time to
spend on the streets.
"Idleness leads directly to crime
and the city authorities will be do
ing a good work If they keep after
the fdlers. 1t is not enough to Keep
them off the streets. The ponce
should acQuafnt themselves with
sucb facts about the people within
the territory they guard as relates
to their occupation and habits me

living should be promptly hauled IN

The city authorities might take
an additional step 10 lnoSS SoSs7N
ed by the Mails article. They
could, If they would and worked 1t
right, become part of an employ
ment agency. that is to say, they
could with little pains and trouble,
establish at their quarters a labor
bureau. In other words, in their
POUNDS of the city, they could easily
keep an eye open for places to
recommend to the loafer and then
use a persuasive power over him to
get him to accept the place and not
only support himself but also become
a useful citizen.
1t Is mistaken idea that the
driving away of vagabonds from a
city helps humanity any A better
plan would be to lead them to en-
oloyment, if at all possible.
