The New Child Labor Bill.

The bill for the regulation of child
la Dor in North Carolina, introduced IN
the lower house of the Legislature by
Mr.. DilIing, of CASTOR, is the voluntary
proposition of the Cotton Manufact-
urers' Association of North Carolina
and is volunteered at time when no
threat of hostile legislation is being held
over the manufacturers. It modifes,
very materially, existing conditions,
in that, while it offers for the current
year no change in the existing law as
to the minimum age of child workers
in cotton mills-12 years-it provides
that after 1907 no child under Is years
of age shall be employed or work in a
factory except in apprenticeship cap-
acity and then only upon certificate that
it has attended school at least four
months during the preceding year.
Among the other provisions is one that
after 1907 no child under Il years of age
shall work in cotton factory after
10 o'clock at night.

The People Endorse 1t.

The Beckett bill, or if you please.
the subs titute for it, is now a law, the
Senate having passed it Tuesday with
amendments which the House readily
accepted. The passage by the General
Assembly, by unanimous vote in
both houses, with few remarks and no
debate, of bill carrying an appro-
priation of half million dollars, is a
most extraordinary occurrence and a
crown of glory for the body. It is the
highest evidence it could afford of it's
right-mindedness and of the fact that
upon this point, at least, it is truly
representative body; for upon the SUBJ
ject of care of the class of darkened in
tellect, at whatever cost, the people are
united.

GOOD FOR JUDGE COOK.
He Inaugufates a New Form
Of Reform.
He Suspends Judgment Over Three
Young Men Upon Their
Abjuring Cigarettes
and Whiskey.

The press reports in to-day's morn
ing papers contain the following, and
we publish it under our own headlines
with absolute approval:
"Asheville, N c., Feb. 13.-In the
Superior court this afternoon three
young white boys escaped the chain
gang by swearing that they would not
take a drink of liquor or smoke a
cigarette before they were twenty-one
years of age. The boys, who are less
than 16 years of age, were convicted of
forc1ble trespass. Judge Cook told
them this afternoon that if they would
take oath that they would not smoke a
cigarette or take a drink of LIQUOR until
they were twenty one years of age he
would let them go. The boys agreed
to the proposition. The book was
brought forth and Judge Cook admin
1stered very solemn oath.''
In pursuing the above course Judge
Cook has shown himself endowed with
that attribute which becomes the
throned monarch better than his
CROWN" and, therefore, most admir-
able in a judge, who clothed with
earthly power knows how-and when
to season justice with mercy"
1t is indeed-and always-most pitt
full to see a youth, a mere lad, sucking
cigarette, enervating his physical
constitution, dwarfing his mental de-
velopment, destroying his will power
which is his rudder for life's voyage
ere he has even reached the wears of
discretion.
Some one is to blame for this.
Is it the parent? It is up to the pa
rent to answer.
Is it the law makers? Hardly, for
we have laws in this regard that are
ample-f enforced. 1t seems to US
therefore that the responsibility re-is
with the parents and the officer= cloth
cd with the enforcement of G.w:-and
great and awful is that respo4sibiity-
not to be shirked: "be not deceived.
God is not mocked," and only "the
fool hath said in his heart, there is no
God"
Judge Cook is endeavoring to dis
charge his responsibility nobly, and
the ARGUS cries to him across the
State-her plains, and valleys, and
hills, and mountains peaks, to the
LAND of the Skies" where he is hold
ing court-weI done! Give the boys
this chance to recuperate their physi-
cal and mental and Will powers while
there is yet possibility in their youth
to do so.

EASTERN NORMAL SCHOOL.
Sub Committee Appointed to Draw
Substitute Bill Meet on Wed

The prayer of the educational spirit
Nof the East was uttered last night be-
fore the joint committee of the Senate

lima Training School, whose puspose
would be to prepare teachers for the
public schools, and the modest sum Of
$50, ZOO is asked for creating this in
stitution. Representative men of the
East appeared before the committee,
and the members were greatly moved
by the power of the speeches of Ex-
Governor Jarvis and Professor Rags
dale, we'll known and loved citizens of
this State, and other prominent East
erners.
At the conclusion of the discussion Of
the bill by it's advocates, there being no
opposition, the committee went into
executive session, latter wh ich it was ar
nounced that Senators Ormond and
Mitchell, and Representatives Royster,
Ehringhaus and Stickley had been ap-
pointed as a. subcommittee to prepare
a substitute bill tor the bill and report
to the committee next Wednesday
might.
Ex-Governor T. J. Jarvis, of Green
Vile, who spoke at the former meeting
of the committee in favor of the bill,
was the first speaker at the meeting
last night. There was applause when
this distinguished citizen of the State
Eook the floor.

Washington, d. c., Feb. 15.-Com-
missioner of Corporations Garfield has
construed the Livingston-B Burleson cot
ton resolution that recently passed the
House to provide not only for the in
vestigation of the cotton exchanges
dealing in futures, but also for an in
vestigation of the methods of the great
cotton and cottonseed associations of
the South.
He accordingly proposes to direct an
inquiry into the methods of the Farm
ers' National Union, the Southern Cot
ton Association the National Ginners'
Association and other similar organiza-
tions.
Representative William G. Lowering,
of Massachusetts, the member of the
inter state commerce committee who
reported the amended resolution, is au-
thority for the statement that the cor
poration com missioner will Investigate
the associations of the South in connec-
ton with the cotton exchanges. He
himself is mem Der of the New York
Cotton Exchange, at which the original
resolution was aimed.
"Why have a one-sided investiga-
