OUR WASHINGTON
NEWS AND NOTES
ITEMS OF INTEREST BRIEFLY
CHRONICLED.
EXTENT OF CHILD LABOR
Census Bureau Issues Bulletin on
Subject.

Washington.-The extent to which
child labor is employed in the United
States is set fourth IN bulletin is
sued by the census bureau.
The statistics presented are for 19OO
and relate to the employment of chill
dren as bread winners of whom 1,7OO,-
900 in round numbers between the
ages of 10 and Is were so employed.
Bread winners are defined as those
earning money regularly by labor, con
tributing to the family support or ap-
preciably assisting in merchant or ag-
ricultural industry. By far the most
important occupation for children as
that agricultural laborers, the number
Of children, 10 to Is years old, so en-
ployed being 1854, ,446.
Next in Importance comes domestic
service or the occupations of servants
and walters in which 1906 children
were employed most of them being
girls.
About one-third cf the children en-
ployed in gainful occupations were 10,
years old and more than one-half were
IA to Is years old. The number un-
der IA were 790,623 or 45.2 per cent.
Of the total number Of child bread
winners 10 to Is, 22.2 per cent was
boys. Almost invariably the pereent-
age of bread winners is much greater
among foreign born children than
among native born. The percentage
among negro children is much higher
than white.
The cotton mills furnish employ
ment to children to greater extent
than any other manufacturing or mer
camille industry. In 1900 the number
of cotton mill operatives 10 to 15
years old, was 44,427.
Of the 71,622 messengers and er-
rand office boys in the United States
62 per cent were district and tele-
graph messengers and errand boys
23.3 per cent were Office boys and l4.7
per cent were bunaA. ANA cash boys
or girls.

President Clark's Address.

] President Walter Clark gives oui
the following address to the formers
of the state.
| 'The enormous increase in the pro-
duction of cotton in Texas and Okla
homa should cause the people of Mis-
sissippi to weigh well their chances be
fore pitching their crops this year
Corn is worth 80 cents per bushel and
hay from $40 to $12 per ton in Texas
and Oklahoma, while in Mississippi
corn is worth rs cents and hap from
500 to $50 per ton.
Emigration to these western states
has been large this year and thou
sands of new acres will he planted
in cotton; and we may expect, with
seasonable condition anywhere from
five to six million bales from these
two states alone this year.
"It is also well known fact that
We in Mississippi cannot grow cotton
as cheaply as it can be grown in the
west; and I think the day is not far
distant when we Of Mississippi and
especially the people of the delta
will find it more profitable to grow
high grade staple cotton. In fact |
think this day is at hand.
"The demand for this cotton at
this time seems unlimited, and when
we consider this interest, in com
parison to the whole, the growers
could be easy organized and the price
maintained; of this feature, however
I will have something 10 say later IN
tha season. At this time it would
be we'll to consider the best class OF
land for staple cotton.
'fI ann very much of the opinion
that in the delta the old and worn
light soils are the best and that sta
pie cotton should not be planted on
the rich new lands. From 300 to
500 pounds of cotton seed meal per
acre on these thin soils will hasten
Notwithstanding very much to be
desired with staple cotton-and will
add materially to the yield. Eight
hundred to one thousands pounds OF
raw cotton seed per acre will have
the same affect as the meal and will
reduce the production of Oil, and thus
raise the price of seed.
"It is an easy matter to distribute
the seed or meal with Dow-law cot
ton planter-with some light changes
in the planter small opening for
the meal and much larger one for seed
The meal or seed should be distribut-
ed in the drill and then listed on the
middles thrown out LATER, leaving the
fertilizer directly under the plant.
Il have requested J. W. Fox, who
is in charge of ae Delta Experimen-
tai station, to write me letter fo1
publication, giving his experience
with fertilizers in the delta"
The Kemper herald. (Scooba, Miss.) 1875-1908, 1907-01-31
To Train sharpsotters.

In practicing firing of soldiers with
the rifle or pistol, in the future, the
War Department will insist that II
be under conditions similar to those
which obtain in battle. 1t will moi
do for the men to do their firing from
shelters, but it shall be conducted
Gin the open," and with the weap
ons with which each arm of the ser
vice is regularly equipped. Infantry
and artillery, except field batteries
are required to practice with the II
fle and pistol, and field artillery with
the pistol.
In general orders issued by the
War Department it is declared that
the object of all instruction, Of which
range firing merely forms one of the
final steps, is to increase the soldiers
accuracy Of fire with the small arm
as he will take it into action. It Is
therefore, held to be requisite that
his practice should be conducted with
the rifle or pistol exactly as it is sup
piled by the department having
charge of the arms, except that the
sights may be blackened if desired
Additional appliances, it is stated
such as temporary shades for the
sights, detachable spirit levels, orthop
tic eye-pieces, which, in the field
would practically never be applied
to the rife or used in aiming, and
would only make the soldier depend
ent on conditions unlike those which
obtain in battle, and they will not
be used in regular practice.

Increase of Salaries.

The senate passed the house amend
ment to the legislative appropriation
bill increasing the salaries Of the vice
president and. members of the cabi-
net, by a vote of So to q. The bill
increasing the salaries of senators
and members to 81, 500 and of the 9th
er officers mentioned to $4,000.
A number of speeches for and
against the measure were made, the
principal ones being delivered by Sen
ator Berry, Of Arkansas, who opposed
it and Senator Tillman who favored
its passage.
Senator Tillman saying he had just
been elected TO six more years of ser
vice would vote for the increase, not
because he would get more money, but
because it was right.
The Kemper herald. (Scooba, Miss.) 1875-1908, 1907-01-31
COMPROMISE Adopted.

The senate passed the compromise
Foraker resolution authorizing the
Committee on Military Affairs to in
vestigate the facts of the affray at
Brownsville on the nights of August
13 and IA last, without questioning
the legality OF justice of any act OF
the President in relation to or con-
nected with that affray. This action
came after the subject of the Presi-
ident's discharge Of the negro troops
had been under consideration almost
daily since the first day of the pres
ent session of congress and every
phase of the question had been dis
cussed on all side. Before the adop-
ton of the resolution several substi-
tute measures were voted down.
One by Senator Mallory, declaring
that the President had authority for
his course and acted justly, which
was tabled by vote of 43 to %; an
other by Senator McCumber simply
providing for an investigation with
out reference to the President in any
way, was tabled by a viva voee vots.
A third, by Senator Culberson, in
dorsing the Presidents action and
providing for no investigation, was
tabled by roll call vote of 46 to 10.
There was no record vote on the res
olution vote of adoption.
President Roosevelt is enthusiastic
over the good results obtained by
schoolboys with the sub-target ma
chimes which the Public School Ath-
letic League has installed in the ten
largest high schools in New York. The
President, who is honorary vice pres
ident of the Public School Athletic
League, told Gen. Wingate, president
of the league, Saturday, that he re-
garded the movement to make the
school boys good shots as one of ma
tional Importance, and that he would
be glad to do anything in his power
to help it along.
Gen. Wingate suggested that It
would be good idea if the President
should consent to send letter Of
commendation to the boy who would
display the greatest skill with the RI
He, and the President replied:
ftI will do it. You go ahead, Gem
eral. and arrange the matches as you
think best, and you have my authori-
ty to announce that I will write such
letter to the boy who the league
decides has shown he is the best shot
as soon as you send me his name"
