The Herald correspondent is inter
ssted in the Mitchell bill concerning
wife desertion and hopes to see it
become law. Last week a colored
man from Colon secured work in the
mines and also a house, and moved
his family here. Then he pulled up
and left wife and four children here
in a helpless condition. He just fiat
ly refused to start to work after his
place was ready for him in the mines
and walked. If the Mitchell bill pass
es and becomes a felony it will learn
these fellows a lesson they could new
er be taught otherwise.
The passage of the two-cent fare
bill has now become reality, and
the writer will say to the legislature,
We'll done, thou good and faithful
servants, thou hast been faithful ov-
er a few things, we will now make
you ruler over many"
