not more than eight or nine years Of
age and yet they looked like little old
men and women. have seen boys
ten years old bearing the burdens OF
manhood
And the worst Of it is that In many
cases there is no necessity for these
innocent children to work. They
should be out enjoying Gods good sun
shine and healthful fresh air instead
of breathing the germ-laden dust.

the hours which little boys and girls
are spending in the cotton mills Of the

The Adams Act. Is
The Congress OF the United states,
at the session OF 1906, passed an act,
known as the Adams Act, 7, and en-.
titled tAn act to provide for an in.
creased annual appropriation for agri.
cultural experiment stations and regu.
1atlng the expenditure thereof and
which was approved March 18Th, 1906.
This act makes an Increased appropria.
ton out Of the Federal treasury to the
work of the Agricultural Experiment
Station In this State and in the other
States and Territories of the Union,
aud regulates the expenditure thereof.
But before the money could be drawn
by the station at Morgantown ii was
necessary for me to give the assent of
the State to the act. which the act
authorized me to do in the recess OF
the Legislature. This assent / gave.
It is necessary, however, that your as.
sent be given, as that given by me was
temporary and al interim. have
been furnished with copies of the AID.

Uniform Laws.
I have received copy of the uni.
form negotiable instrument law, pre-.
pared at the direction of the confer.
ence Of commissioners on uniformity
OF laws. with an urgent request TO call
your attention to the same, which 1
do with the assurance that 1 consider
the subject of Importance, and trust
that it will be Your pleasure to give
the mater the consideration that its
importance demands. The laws OF the
States upon this subject should be uni.
form. The bill was passed by the
Senate at your last session, but failed
In the House to reach final reading
owing to the press of other business.
This law was originally codifed in
1895, and has been enacted in twenty.
eight States, and was passed in the
District of Columbia for the courts OF
the United States. l am Informed It
is in force in all the State bordering
on our Safe, and that It has the en-.
dorsement of the commercial, legal
and banking associations, and of busi-
ness men generally. Formerly there
was much confusion among the States
owing to the differing laws of the
States and the various contradictory
decisions OF the courts. The present
law contains no very radical departure
from existing customs. being compiled
by taking the Law Merchant, the Eng
lish Bill Of Exchange Act, the various
State laws, and the decisions OF the
courts as it's basis.

Business Show a Success.

Chicago, March 1S.-Space at the
Coliseum was at premium Saturday
as the national business show opened
its doors to the largest crowd that ever
attended the shows of this great or
ganization. The show is carried on
upon a larger scale than in any pre-
vious city. There are nearly 200 ex
hibitors here, and every possible de-
vice for use in office or business is on
exhibition. The great international
speed typewriter test will be held, in
which Miss Rose L. Feltz, the Ameri-
can champion, viii compete for the de-
fense of her title to continue to hold
the championship AT the present time
she holds undisputed sway as the
champion speed operator of the coun-
try. The champion speed writer's of
Canada and Germany are both here,
and viii enter the lists with Miss Feltz,
Miss Herford of Australia, is also here,
and she will probably enter the con-
test.
