A report was circulated Wednes-
day that there were several cases Of
scarlet fever in town, but such is not
the case. The report was evidently
based on the fact that several pupils
who were suffering with bad colds
were sent home from school. This
was done as a precautionary measure
and that each case might be investi-

!. In the next issue Of the Advance
we will give the result Of the politi-
cal contest now being waged in the
state and county, which closes with
the election to be held next Tuesday
SO far as Mobiles county has been
concerned the campaign has been
one of unusual quiet. The meetings
held have been in the interest Of
the candidates for congress and the
head of the Democratic state ticket.
The Republican State Central Com
mittee has seen fit to entirely ignore
Mobiles county, and our own central
in apparent childish milf at this
neglect has done nothing in the way
of carrying on campaign. Those
candidates who have opposition
have had to make their own cam
.paign and this trey have done with
marked ability, as we believe the
returns will show next Tuesday
night. The lack Of activity on the
part Of the committees does not,
however, indicate any lack of in
terest on the part Of the people.
The Republican voters won a
single victory over the machine at
the primaries and they will clinoh
that victory at 1.-THE polls next Tues
day. .: III.

BiseIow SaIoonkeeper Indicted
on Six Counts for Selling
to Minors

More business has been disposed
of in the district court during the
past week than in any other week
during the term. :...
Our report last week concluded
with the case of Thomas Foley, which
had been called for trial. Foley was
indicted for assault in the second de-
gree. The character of his offence
was a crime against nature. He
changed his plea to guilty.
In the case of the State vs.. Frank
Timmons and Chas. Blumeneau the
derendants were permitted to plead
guilty to assault in the third degree
Last Friday Acel Pierman was ar
raigued under an indictment for horse
stealing. He plead not guilty, but
the next day changed his plea to
guilty. ~.' s&s% ,gs
The case OF the State vs.. Joseph
Stearns, charged with incest, was
called last Friday and the jury en-
panneled. In the afternoon the jury
was dismissed until Monday forenoon.
The case went to jury Wednesday
evening and verdict of guilty was
returned. This has proved to be q
case of exceptionally revolving de-
pravity on the part of those concern.

.McC cCLEARY SPEAKS
Masterly Address Delivered Last
Saturday Evening Before a
worthington Audience,
The Republican Policy Of Pro.
lection Discussed in a
Scholarly Manner. -.

LAST saturday evening Congress
man MoCleary addressed q fair sized
audience at Masonic hall on the is-
sues Of this congressional campaign.
Mr.. McCleary had spoken at Will
mont the night before and at Rush
more on Saturday afternoon. Ow-
ing to the late hour at which his
train arrived many had left the hall
before the speech began. The speak
or wac introduced by County Attor-
ney q. M. Crandall, who with Sen
ator Shell occupied seats on the
stage. ".& ~t>. , - -s'.: .@@
Mr.. McCleary's speech was = schol-
arly discussion of the tariff ques-
ton, which he said was the leading
issue in all congressional campaigns
since the government was founded
The speaker briefly reviewed the
tariff history Of the country, show
ing that hard times had followed
every downward revision and that
there is no connection between the
tariff and the formation Of trust
monopolies. He held that as a
standpatter his position in congress
would be absolutely impregnable
when the question Of revision finally
comes up, and his argument here
was enimently sound. he said that
when the country demanded revis-
ion the question would be submitted
to congress by the President az the
official head of the Republican par
ty, and when that was done he
would, as he has repeatedly assert
ed during the campaign, be found
standing with Roosevelt. The. most
important point made during the
speech was that when the tariff
question. did com up Mr.. McCleary
would by virtue of his place on the
committee on ways and means have
q hand in framing the new bill and
would be in position to defend the
interests vf his constituents to an ex-
ent that no new member could,
a democrat. That when n
bill is finally passed in the house
and ammended in the Senate and
comes to conference, his rank on the
committee would make him one of
the house conferees. If he is not re-
turned the house conferees will be
three eastern Republicans whose
are interested in get
tug free raw material and free food

Mr.. McC Cleary's g speech was schol-
arly discourse and a masterful mar
,haling of facts in support Of his po-
,ition, and made a deep impression

CHILD LABOR.

There are in this country today over
two millions of children between the
ages of 10 and Is years, who are
forced to work for wages or susie
nance. About 100000 of these chill
dren are employed in occupations con-
sidered dangerous to life and limb.
Corporate greed is forever reaching
out for greater and more continuous
profits, and cheap labor is the readiest
means to this end. Child labor is the
cheapest of ALL Consequently it's use
is encouraged by the average capital
ist The factories Of the United
States are numbering the children OF
the wage working class by thousands
and tens of thousands, and those they
do not kill are turned out as stunted
dwarfs and cripples, not only In a
physical sense, but in mental and
moral ways as we'll. The average man
stands appalled, and his soul Is sick
ened at the spectacle of these little
factory innocents. When Christ said
Suffer little children to come unto
me" He placed upon the young ones
a peculiar significance in His estima-
ton of their status In society. He
placed them in the eyes of the world
with a tender admon!ticn, and good
men, and all women we hope, have
felt their heart-strings tear. at the
ruthless disregard of the phi 7sical vel
fare, and present and future happiness
Of those little chi >.ren for a sordid
greed of money. Labor unionlsm con-
tends that it is not at all necessary

Cur material prosperity may be en-
hanced. Our contention is mat chill.
dren should be made as haony as pos.
sible for later on, occasions for disci-
pine and self-denial will be numerous
cough. Greed should not be allowed
t. elcroach upon what should be the
most joyful period of human existence.
A joyful childhood is the best prepare,
ton for an earnest manhood, while a
youth of suffering and privation pre-
ptres for encouragement and depres.
sion and ofttimes for crime in after
life. The best preparation for life
of hard work and difficulty is to have
happy childhood and youth to look
back to. The memory of a free and
happy childhood goes with us all our
way, and in the midst of the sorest
experiences, keeps up our faith, that
love and happiness are the rule, sor-
row and selfishness the exception.
