Here's Another Word Or Two About
Fred Seely and HOke Smith

You will remember how the magnificent
meeting at the Auditorium in Atlanta, on the
night OF September last, was invaded and
broken up by lot of hoodlums, sent there bv
certain Rule-or-Ruin politicians At the bot
tom of the plot was the purpose to do some
thing very much worse than what was
actually done.-Let that pass.
Determined that the matter should not ter
inmate that way, [ shortly afterwards rented
the Orpheum Theatre, and advertised another
speaking-date.
The question of sending out complimentary
tickets came up in due course In this con-
nection Brother Seely's name was mentioned.
Some of my friends strongly objected to his
having complimentary ticket, saying that he
was hypOcrlte, and reminding me that his
paper had made very offensive references to
me and to the Auditorium meeting. However,
my good nature prevailed and the compli-
mentary ticket was sent
Mr. Seely was not at the speaking; but [
learned afterward that his employee, Mr. j.
.. Cochran, was. He occupied one of the
boxes quite near me and to my right In the
midst of the speech he tried to create a dis
turbance, intending, no doubt to repeat the
Auditorium outrage. Not only was I deter
mined not to submit to that kind of thing any
more, but the audience was; and the demon
stratiOn which we made against the disturber
thoroughly cowed him. The would-be dis
turber turned as white as a sheet and re-
manned silent during the remainder of the
speech. He had intruded upon peaceful as
semblage of ladies and gentlemen, in a room

THOMSON, GA, DECEMBER Is, 1910
The Appalling Conditions Under
Which Our Working People
Have To Labor For
Their Bread

Have you read the horrible details of that
Newark n o.) catastrophe, IN which twenty
four working girls were cremated! They
were III the fourth story of building, when
fire broke out Oh the floor below, and
in moment. without the slightest warning
they found themselves caught in death-trap
from which they could neither rescue them
selves nor be rescued by others.
Apparently no provision had been made for
such an emergency as suddenly came upon
these unfortunate girls. 1t was simply an
other case where heartless cOmmercialism in
mad pursuit of dollars had no thought for
human lives
If this were an isolated instance it would
be bad enough in all conscience but to
our shame, be it said, 1t was typical of gen
eral conditions. With frightful regularity
tragedies of the same sort have been enacted
all over the Union. Perhaps there is no city
In the land where the working people are not
compelled to toll at the wheel of labor in some
such death-trap as that which claimed the
Newark victims.
Is it any marvel that the hearts of the bread
winners should be filled with bitterness and
despair? Is it any wonder that the Socialist
is making converts by the thousands in our
industrial cities? Can we be surprised when
we see thousands of enraged workers parad-
mo the streets under red flags to the music
of the Marseilles?
Neither church nor State is concerning
itself in any systematic, persistent method
with such problems as these.
When the Government discovers, as it did
upon the investigation of the Homes Com
mission. that there are hdeous conditions in
our great cities, the report is suppressed.
In the preservation of the national forests
mineral deposits and water-power sites it is
easy to interest both the government and the
people: for the prevention of cruelty to ami
mails, wealthy philanthropic organizations
are ever on the watch; to prevent swindlers
from getting the money of honest people,

spread the aforesaid diseases to persons who
handle and wear it"
How is it in sanity Boston, of self-righte-
GUS Massachusetts?
That city has 152 tenement houses, of the
Sweat-shop variety; and the conditions ex-
isting in all of them are much the same as
those described below:
".Ihe largest shop [ visited was one In
which there were seventy-nine people en-
poyed. They occupied four rooms The
rooms were quite large, but were filthy almost
beyond desert ption The coal was piled up
in huge heaps on the floor; ashes, both IN bar
rels and heaps were scattered about; cloth
inc was flung over the floors everywhere;
dirt and scraps Of cloth literally made car
pet for these rooms These seventy nine peO-
pie were about evenly divided between the
sexes, and yet for all this herd of humanity
there was only one Water-closet, the door of
which stood open, on the landing, and the
poisonous stencil filled all the rooms; the
floor about it was damp and filthy. How
any woman or girl could work in this shop,
and retain her self-respect, | do not under
stand. / estimated that at least twenty boys
and girls of this company were under fifteen;
one little boy sitting on the floor hard at work
was almost crying with headache. The men
were smoking cigarettes here, as in other
places, and this added to the poisonous con-
dition of the air. The majority of these peo-
pie could not speak English Taken alto
gether, they we're a hopeless looking lot
Many Of them had brutal, hunted look in
their faces"
What is true Of New York and Boston is
true also Of practically every other American
city The remorseless pursuit of wealth is
costing more human lives than any war
known to history.
To estimate the sum total of the sacrifice
the aggregate of those who are killed out
right, those who perish from disease brought
on by the conditions under which they toll,
and those whose span of years is shortened by
the pace that kills and the heat and the gases
which one recoils in horror.

caOlneU OlHCofS Will personally command RAIDS
upon the establishments of the crooks; to
stop the sale of whiskey, nearly every state is
ready to convulse ITSELF to send the Gospel
to the heather, unlimited thousands are at the
command of holy enthusiasm, but it seems
utterly impossible to awaken this people to a
sense of the enormity of the waste of the
human asset.
10 modern <conmercialism a greater mum
Der OF human being are being sacrificed an
nually than the toll taken by our Civil War
Our railroads alone are killing or manning
eighty thousand people year, and the mum
Der is on the increase. A quarter of million
little children are being ground up into
dividends The panderer to vice is prowling
through the streets of every city; the unven-
tilated mine and the death trap manufacture
ing establishments add their horrors periodic
ally to the sum total of this terrible waste of
human life.
What will the end be if our money-mad
capitalists continue this inhuman treatment of
their felloW-creatures?
Not less frightful are the conditions in
which tens Of thousands of breadwinners have
to Iro-conditions which take heavy tolls
from health and strength, morals and life
itself.
When tragedy like that in Newark occurs,
the country is startled, for the event is dra-
matte, the newspapers handle it and everybody
takes notice. So it is also with the unfor-
tunate wretches imprisoned in the mine
But the densely crowded tenement-house,
and the hideous sWeatshop take their victims
without noise and without any dramatic cpl
sodes; consequently no sensation stirs the
republic. Yet the number Of men, women and
children done to death in these vile dens
enormously exceeds the death-rolI of the &C.
casional fire or mine disaster.
Says the New York Hoga7d:
'In the lower portion of the great East
Side Of this city, are hundreds of tall, i'll
appearing tenement houses, in which thOus-
ands OF haIf-starved, sunken-eyed men and
women are crowded into small, foul, over
heated rooms, working day and night for Just
enough to keep soul and body together IS Is =:
In these Over-croWded rooms the air is pois-
oned with the heat from the stoves, the steam
from the cooking, and the fumes of oil and
gas.
1T is work, work, work, day and night,
year IN and year out. No sunshine enters
their lives. Their existence is one hard. deep,
grinding toll. They have no hope of better
days to come"
DR.. George c. Stiebling, of New York,
made an affidavit to the effect that the New
York sWeatshop gin which clothing is manu-
featured, and which serve at the same time
as dwelling rooms for the Bosses their fami-
lies, and bOarders, are OvercrOwded, ill-ven-
tilated, Over-heated, full of dirt filth, vermin
and stencil, and that, consequently, they are
in a most unwholesome, health DESTROYING and
disease-breeding condition."

run the announcement without stat ing the conditions"
 Mr. Ford again declined to divulge the conditions upon which his candi- dacy is dependent.
 The Union News and Educ ator's announcement says that MT Ford will be candidate subject to the action of the state and district primaries to be held on March 30th."
 It is not thought that any one rep resenting Faulkner county will attend the committee meeting, which has been called to be held at Fl Paso next Monday. The Democrats of this coun- ty apparently regard the senatorship as settled question and will ignore any attempt to repudiate the action of the Democracy of this county.
 A friend of A. C. Martin, the Dem acratic nominee, stated this morning that he could not understand how Rev. Ford could become candidate, inas- much as Mir. Ford participated in the Democratic primary held in Faulkner county on January 4 and voted for his choice of the two candidates for state senator, thereby recognizing the valid ty of the mode of nomination and tao itly agreeing to support the candi date whom this county should declare the nominee.
 MT. Ford is district missionary employed by the Baptist state mission board. The Searcy paper carrying his announcement says that the mis- sion board has given him leave to make the race for the senate.

ANNOUNCEMENT
 UNAUTHORIZED
FORD NOT YET CANDIDATE
SEARCY PAPERS ANNOUNCE MENT SHOULD HAVE BEEN
 CONDITIONAL, HE SAYS.

Although the Union News and Edu cator of Searcy, copies of which reached Conway in yesterdays mail, carries the formal announcement of Rev, G. M. Ford as a candidate for state senator from the Twentysev- enth district, Mr. Ford stated this morning that the Searcy paper was unauthorized to announce him as any thing except a conditional candidate.
 Mr. Ford was seen by representa- tive of the Log Cabin Democrat as he was leaving Conway this morning for a trip up the Fort Smith road. As he stated positively to this paper yes nounce ..ls candidacy and would not do so until some time next week, and until certain conditions had been met, his attention was called to the Searcy paper, stating in the usual language of political announcements that 1t was authorized to announce MT. Ford as a candidate. Mr. Ford reiterated his declaration of yesterday and stated that the announcement should not have been made in the Searcy paper unless accompanied by the statement that the candidacy was conditional. Hope Wheeler, editor of the Searcy organ, was acquainted with the con- dtions under which MT. Ford would run, according to the latter.
 | As he was about to board the train, however, Mr. Ford said: But MT. Wheeler might have thought best to

On next Monday at midnight the long campaign for $300,000 endow ment for Hendrix college will come to an end, and whether the college is to secure the gift of $75,000 from the General Education Board will become known. Friends of the college are making heroic struggle during the last days of the campaign, and last night less than $10,000 remained to be raised to meet the conditions of the big sum- This the managers of the campaign are hopeful of securing be- fore Tuesday, but they say it will take liberal offerings from everybody to make the landing
 A number of telegrams and letters forwarding small contributions have been received here today. Rev. J. B. Stevenson returned this morning from Lamar, where he yesterday secured $600 in subscriptions to the endow- ment
 At the Methodist church tomorrow morning at II o'clock Dr. James Thomas, commissioner of education of the college, will conduct the services and will state what is needed to round the campaign for the endowment. Sev- eral out-of-town friends of the col lege will join in the campaign here Monday.
