STATE IS BUNCoED

The legislature three years ago
abolished the contract labor plan
which was in vogue at the Ohio pen
itentiary and substituted nothing.
Now at the short session some solu-
tion Of the question OF what to do
with the convicts must be reached
and the probability Is that some
speedy action will be taken and the
proper solution will not he reached
The contract labor plan was an
nulled because Of the demand which
was made upon the general assembly
by organized labor, The labor lead
ers objected to convict labor being
In this manner brought into cOmpeti-
tion with organized labor. They
claimed that the state was tramplfng
upon the rights Of the free laborng
man, by allowing contractors to en-
P''' 'h' 'pHNlNNo III lut lllhHuldtlUGe
OF their wares. Without considering
the final solution of the problem,
the members Of the legislature, fear
ful lest they lose the labor vote in
the next election, jumped in and
abolished the contract labor plan
which was IN vogue and threw the
sixteen hundred and more men who
are in the state penal institution In
to idleness, thereby greatly increasing
the expense upon the taxpayers in
maintaining the Institution.
The move upon the part of the leg
islators was purely a political one.
They had no consideration for any
thing excepting their own political
scalps. Labor succeeded in soaring
them into putting the state into
hole in order that they might be re-
turned to the general assembly. No
one will for moment question the
right Of the laboring men TO secure
reasonable concessions in their own
Interests. II is the right of every
organization to work for the best
interests of the members and no one
blames organized labor for having
secured this concession from the leg
islatllre. The blame lies at the door
OF the legislators who were willing
10 sacrifice the interests of the state
IN order that their own political am
'luons might not receive a bao1set.

PIrTSBURG NEGROES

been called by the better class of

WORK TO DO AT HOME

The mutilated remains OF another
girl have been found in Dayton. This
makes the fourth murder of young
girls in that city in the last three
years and the second within two
weeks. The situation Is certainly
becoming serious, especially so when
it is remembered tnat only one man
has been arrested and convictd of
any of the crimes. Layton Hines is
now serving a life sentence for the
murder of Dona Gilman, the first
of the quartet of unfortunate girls.
Were such crimes being committed
in some foreign country, the good
people OF America would hold up
their hands in holy horror and con
sider sending missionaries to the
field If American girls were being
outraged and murdered in some for
eign city, the United States govern
ment, through its consular service,
would set about to secure redress
and the punishment Of the offenders,
but here IS condition right under
our very noses, and the matter is al
lowed to pass with only an expression
of horror and a few remraks OF crit
iclsm of the Dayton police force for
not being more active and vigilant in
the pursuit of the criminals. II
