The current issue of the United
Mine Workers Journal handles the
Whipple disaster editorialy as
follows:
"Once more the history of min
ing in West Virginia has bloody

unenforced law has been demon
strated.
''This time eleven men were

is the number given out by the

Of the juggling of names and num-
bers in West Virginia feel that the
death list was over fifty.
"T1is latest slaughter makes
over one hundred and fifty men
who have been needlessly killed
within a radius of a mile within
one years time. 1t is doubtless if
any county in the country can
equal the gruesome record of Fay
cite County, West Virginia-not
excepting the morgue at Poca-
hontas.
The press dispatches state that
the mine "was well ventilated and
we'll equipped" but the facts
fatty contradict that assertion, for
such Eaccidents' do not occur in
well-ventilated mines. We have
the highest mining authorities on
record to that effect. The law
means nothing there; it is simply
irritating to read about the Claw

MAN " ANY Y WOMEN WOMEN
WAGE FARMERS
Over Five Million Engaged at Gain
full Occupations In the
United States.

According to the last census.
there are now 5000 women en-
gagged in gainful occupations, and
their average wage was less than
$24O a year. More than so per
cent. of the total number were I'M
der "a years of age. The census
report also shows that tthe pro-
portion of women employed in
manufactures is increasing more
rapidly than that of men, The
census statistics show what are
known as the sewing trades to be a
declining occupation for women,
while the number of children en-
ployed therein increased more than
100 per cent.
The census cannot explain these
changes, because it is not within
the province of the Census Bureau
to investigate such points. It is
believed that an investigation by
the Bureau of Labor will bring tx
light some important Information
upon the industrial, social, moral
educational and phi ysical condition
of the women and child workers il
the United States, and lead t.
much needed legislation in connec
ton Herewith.

1
of the Men They Fight For.
1t is fact that labor papers
more than others, have a hard row
to hoe. The hosts of organized
labor have no paper so devoted to
their cause as the labor press,
therefore it is with pardonable
pride that mention. is made of that
fact that some unions recognize
this fact in substantial manner.
Notably it can be mentioned that
the printers of Birmingham, Ala.
have subscribed in a body for the
Labor Advocate of that city. An
other instance is that of some
printers, bartenders, painters, two
white carpenters unions and a
majority of the members of two
colored carpenters unions and in
fact all the trades unions of Jack
sonville, Fla, have paid sub
scription for their full membership
to the Central Union Times of that
place.
Then there is the Labor Advo-
cate, Nashville, Tenn, the official
organ of the Tennessee Federation
of Labor, Trades and Labor Council
and all local unions of Nashville,
every member of which is sub
scriber. If every member of .the
local unions of the State was a
paid-up subscriber to the Argus
the publisher would be enabled to
give his readers much better
paper.
Do the organized workers Of
West Virginia want a first class,
|up-to-date labor paper9 If they
do, here is an opportunity to prove
it. Introduce resolution into
your union, authorizing the offers
to subscribe for the whole member
ship. You know as well as the
other fellow that there are some
who belong to their union for just

taking into consideration thai

Hunting Tho Marib,u.

Hunting the marabou Is attended
with great difficulty, as the bird pos
sesses wonderful cunning and often
contrives to outwit the most skillful
hunter. With 1aughable dignity It
measures the ground between itself
and It's pursuer and takes very good
car not to exhaust itself by too rapid
flight. If the hunter moves slowly the
bird at once adopts an equally easy
pace, but if the hunter quickens his
steps the bird Is off like an arrow. 1t
Is very difficult to get within gun
range OF this calculating creature, but
the natives adopt a novel means Of
capturing 1t, which the bird. with all
its astuteness, Is unable to compre-
bend and falls an easy victim. A
tempting morsel OF meat Is tied to the
end of q long stout cord, which the
skillful hunter filings to q great dis
lance, as he would q lasso, the bait
falling as near the fleeing bird as he
can aim It. he then %conceals himself
hastily behind q bush or crouches low
on the sand. The marabou, which nj
ways keeps it's eye on the hunter, see
Ing him vanish, quietly stops and de-
YOURS the bait, when 1t Is easily Sc
cured by the hunter, who runs toward
1t, coiling the rope as he goes.

LAURENS, S. c., NOVEMBER 6, 1907.
HOLD COTTON.

The financial shake-up in New York
has depressed the price of cotton, but
the financial situation is sure to be bet
ter. Meantime there is, in our opinion,
a concerted determination on the part
of the buyers of cotton that they will
not pay higher prices than those now
prevailing if they can help it. Jour
nails of the New England manufacture
ers openly say that the price is now too
high; that eight cents would be a fair
price; that only the holding by farmers
can prevent the price from declining,
and that the Southern farmers will not
be able to hold longer than the present
month. In other words, they have re-
solved that the market shall go to
pieces in December.
In u opinion, the farmers can hold,
and ought to hold. We do not say that
they will get fifteen cents for cotton,
but we do say that if their line breaks
under the pressure of the "bears," if
they stampede, the price will drop an
other CEN or two.
In order to hold cotton, the farmers
will have to practice economy. The
purchase of that piano or buggy may
have to be postponed. The Christmas
celebration may not be quite as joyful
if the cotton be left in the warehouse,
but in the end the farmers will get
their money back. The great danger
of a good crop is that it leads to habits
Of extravaganza.
We are quite aware that in giving
this advice we may not please all our
merchant and banker friends, but the
best merchants and the best bankers
want the armer to prosper, want
them to save, to become year by year
more independent. The economical
farmer is a better customer for ten
years than is the ~extravagant farmer
who spends largely for one winter and
then "goes broke" and it is therefore
to the highest interest of every bust
ness man in this city to coura the
farmers in their efforts to prevent the
cotton market from going to pieces.
What the cotton crop will amount to
'oSSNy hAho"cJ ou0 lllOoG duIllOl lIlCS
agree that it will not be very large.
Last week an English investigator es-
timated the crop at eleven million bales.
That estimate is too small. The Wool
and Cotton Reporter, of Boston, thinks
it will be nearer fourteen than thirteen
million bales. That is a ridiculously
large estimate.
We can see no reason why cotton
should not be worth anywhere from
eleven to thirteen and a half cents, and
while anybody's prediction is as good
as another's as to cotton prices we
think that the price will be twelve
cents at least before four months have
passed. and it may go higher. But if
the farmers turn loose their cotton in
the manne that the Northern spinners
wish, the price will drop to nine OF
eight cents sure.

NEW Y0RK'S PANIC.

The troubles Of some of the New
York banks have been pretty serious,
and the money market is tight every
where on account of them, but the stu
alton is improving every day. The
panic" was caused by the rascality
of some of the New Workers. 1t was
found that spectators had access to
the funds Of some of the leading banks,
and runs on them began. Then New
York lost its mind. Millions of dollars
were withdrawn from circulation and
boarded in strong boxes, and that
made money tight. But the panic is
over, and has been nothing but a New
York affair. 1t has been a pretty good
proof that Wall street no longer owns
the country. Chicago has been laugh
ing at New York, and all the other
great cities have logged along as
though nothing out of the common had
occurred. In sixty days the money
scarcity will have passed.
Banking and credit are curious
things. N~inety-nine per cent. of the
country's business is done by means of
credit. You put ten dollars in the bank
and give a check for it. That check
may be endorsed to A. and by him to
b. and by him to c., and so until it has
paid a thousand dollars in debts before
it is presented at the bank. Meantime
the bank has had the use Of the actual
ten dollars on which to do business.
Mr.. Bryan used to say that the coun-
try needed fifty dollars per capita for
the transaction of business, but if the
per capita were 500, and everybody
turned fool and got scared, 500 per
capita wouldn't be a drop in the bucket
for the business of this country. When
there is a panic men do turn fools and
get scared. They take their money
out of the banks and the wheels of
business stop; therate of interest, which
is to say the price of money, rises and
the price of every other article goes
down.
The lesson from this is that every
sensible business man is a depositor in
the banks, if he has any money to de.
post. We know a man who raises cot
ton, but he won't trust his money in
banks. If all the farmers and business
men in this country felt as he does cot
ton wouldn't bring six cents the pound
today, and the rate of interest would
be eighteen or twenty per cent. Every
producer, therefore, has a duty to do
in maintaining the confidence in the
business of the country. If the depos-
its in Laurens county were twice what
they are now we should have better
markets for chickens and eggs and bor-
rowing would be easier.

his originality receives a shock. In a

Auhdulnu Mothar,a Noina,

The successful merchant invited his
parents to visit him in New York city.
They came gladly and on the following
Sabbath were escorted to n fashiona-
BILE church in Fifth avenue. Some Of
the hymns were familiar. In their rem
dition the visiting pair contributed
heavily, with the credit for volume in
favor Of the father. Although not al
ways in correct time and sometimes In
discord, yet the joy Of this good couple
leaped forth In Joy u praise, and they
did no see the glowering looks Of
nearby worshipers or the beetlike face
Of their devoted son.

that afternoon while his mother was
