SiXtecnths of an inch in width. 1t has
quick movements and keen Saw-like
mouth. 1t works with rapidity and is
only matter of short while after
operating on boil before ii gets to

ty shell to tell the tale of its deStruc-

crops around here will be appreciablv
cut off by these worms.

PARTY OF LABOR TO TAKE FIELD
Workrnen VIII Take Grievances Before
American People.

NnlSTICGH FCOHlCs
Washington, March 23.-The execu-
tive council of the American Fedora
ton of Labor spent some time Thurs
day discussing the replies of Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Speaker Cannon to
the bill of grievances presented to
them and to President Pro TEN Frye,
of the senate, regarding legislation af-
fecting labor interests.
Mr.. Gompers said that the conclud-
ing paragraph in the memorial meant
exactly what it said. That is, if con
gress fails to remedy the grievances,
the organization will appeal direct to
the people.
In other words, he said the Fedora
ton of Labor will enter the field of
politics and urge organized labor to
elect men of their own choosing and
thus have personal voice in the gov
eminent
There will be further discussions of
the situation by the members of the
council among whom remarks of the
president and Mr.. Cannon have made
deep impression.
Mr. Gompers insists the council is
in the right regarding the statements
set forth in the bill of grievances, that
it has abundant proof of the represen-
tations made and that the condition
of affairs in the labor world is the best
proof of its contentious.

NO LONGER IN RACE
FOR CONGRESS-,
Mr.. Wheatley Withdraws
Therefrom.
CARD EXPLAINS THE REASONS
Action of Executive Committee at
Fort Valley Assigned BY MIR.
Wheatley for His Withdrawal
Lewis and Hughes Have Field.

To the White Democratic Voters of
the Third Congressional Distric':
Ever since the extraordinary action
ofthe Congressional @ Committee atFort
Valley, on the oh of March, it has been
a foregone conclusion that with three
candidates running for Congress from
this District it would be practically
impossible to defeat the present in
cumbent. Hon Dudley M Hugher,
from Twiggs, and I would simply d.
vide the opposition to Mr., Lewis, arc
this opposition so divided would result
in the return of Mr.. Lewis to Congress
for two more years.
When I entered this contest did so
on the presumption that the same meth
DDS which have always obtained in the
election of a Congressman would be
adhered to. There was no trade or I'M
derstanding between me and any one
else; but felt then and believe now)
that l could carry more counties than
either of the other candidates, and that
in convention of delegates selected
by these counties [ would be nominated
IN kho HrsE ballot
The Congressional Committee, fer
reasons of it's own, has done away
with the nominating convention; ard
has established @ new precedent where
by county lines have been obliterated,
and the candidate receiving plurality
vote of the entire District will be de
eIared the nominee.
Under this condition of affairs, ard
recognizing the prior right of Hon.
Dudley M. Hughes to make this race,
unsolicited by him, 1 cheerfully st fe
my personal ambition to represent this
district IN Congress, and withdraw
from the contest.
In doing this desire to thank all my
friends and supporters for the gallant
zht which they have made in my be-
half; and to assure them that my grail
tude is equally as great as if I had
been the nominee. Respectfully,
CRAWFORD WHEATLEY.
