OF LABOR
Still GOES ON
Negroes Leaving Boil .Weevil Dis
tricts BY Hundreds, According
To Reports.

Special to The NetoS.
Jackson, Miss, Dec. 20.-In spite OF
the vigorous threats of planters that
they will deal out summary punish.
ment to labor agents who attempt the
enticement of negroes, the exodus of
labor from the boil weevll counties of
Mississippi steadily continues. -.
1t is stated on good authority that
within the past sixty days fully 1900
negroes have moved from Jefferson
county into the delta, and in many
instances the entire working forces
on plantations of from 1000 to 5000
acres in extent have taken part in
the exodus.
The negroes refuse to listen to the
appeals of the planters, and the in
sistence of special agents of the Unit.
ed States department of Agriculture
that cotton can be grown in spite of
the boil weevil. They have simply
made up their minds to move, and it
requires but little persuasion on the
part Of a labor agent to induce them
to do SO.
Some Of the largest planters attach
no seriousness to the exodus. They
have made up their minds to try d.
versified farming, abandoning cotton
altogether as the staple crop, and
hereafter they will pay wages to re-
liable, Woodworking negroes, instead
of farming on the share plan.
During the coming crop year the
southwestern counties will form a
growing section. Land own.
ers realize that they are up against
a serious problem, but they have not
lost hope in the belief that they can
solve it without general disaster or ir.

every energy in that direction.

lndiana's Chief Executive Suggested
Consolidation Of the Two

TEN:
Indianapolis, Ind, Feb. 26, 1908.
My Dear Sir:-I am impressed
with the conviction that the people of
the city of Indianapolis are rapidly
reaching crisis involving one of the
great public utilities of the city-the
telephone. The State is interested III
the result. 1t is now and must always
be a substantial patron of this utility
Nearly every State office is equipped
with the telephones of both systems.
The transactions of the official bust
ness and the convenience of the public
require that they be so equipped. The
Central Hospital for the Insane, the
Girls School, the School for the Blind,
the School for the Deaf and Dumb and
the Woman's Prison, because of their
location within or near the limits of
the city, are necessarily patrons of
both systems.
I'm the next 25 years indianapolis
will in all probability be a city of half
million people. Telephone extcn-
sions will be necessity. Whatever
system is in use will require to be
modernized. l believe it apparent to
all thoughtful citizens that one mod
ern, well-equipped system is essential
to the city's welfare. This can best
be accomplished by the consolidation
of the two companies now holding
franchises. Such a system ought to
be operated under a franchise Just tc
the people and just to the company
owning it. In order that those charged
with the responsibility of determining
what this franchise should be may act
intelligently, full and accurate inform

ating the present systems, the cost OF
plants and of extensions
made, the amount of money actually
invested therein, the capital stock of
the companies, and the bonds issued
by them, profits that have accrued
