DIR. CARRINGTON WOULD
STERILIZE ALL FELONS
RICHMOND. VA

RICHMON VA - Special. -
DR.. Charles V. Darlington. surgeon
of the Virginia penitentiary, has sent
to Speaker Byrd the draft of a bill
which has for it's object the steriliza-
ton of felOnS convicted of the more
atrocious offenses against morality.
The measure also includes habitual
criminals and weak-minded law
breakers within it's provisions. 1t is
designed to save future generations
from a race of criminals and degen-
crates.
At the first glance the measure may
appear radical, but Ii is not so much
so as it seems. Other States-Indiana,
Utah, Connecticut and California-aI-
ready have passed laws subjecting GER
tain classes to the operation specified.
Indiana has had its statute in opera
ton for years, and has applied 1t to
several hundred people.
Speaker Byrd, in an official way
has referred the matter to the medical
mem bers of the House-Doctors No
land, Myers and Stephenson. He
wants to get their views of the matter
A pamphlet containing an address
delivered on the subject by DR.. Car
rington was put on the desks of all
the members of the House this morn
! ing. In the address DR.. Darlington
says
''I have been surgeon of the peni-
tertiary for over ten years. long
enough time to see father and then
sons come to the prison, and by look
ing back over the records, learned
that the graz dfather had also been
an inmate. Tow this hideous repro
duction OF criminals, from father to
son and to grandson, should be stop
ped; 1t is right and proper that it
should be, and it will be in time-in a
very short time, too. IL you doctors
of Virginia will awaken to the i'm
portance of the proposition as a
crime preventer and tell your repre-
sentatives in the House and Senate
that from a medical and surgical
standpoint it Is a good measure"

Owns Three Large Mills.

The Textile Mills Corporation owns
the Lane and Maginnis mills here and
also a big manufacturing concern at
Wesson, Miss.
press dispatch from Wesson
states that the employees of the mill
in that town are in a serious plight
and that an appeal will be made to
the Mississippi Legislature.
Mill operatives throughout the
South declare the wages they receive
are barely enough for living ex-
penses, and that as consequence
none of them have any savings on
which they can live in the present
period of enforced idleness.'
President G. Gaff, of the Textile
Workers Union, discussing the situa-
tion Friday. said: Il have just fin
ished reading about Wesson, Miss,
and the terrible conditions prevailing
there. We will have a meeting the
early part of next week to devise
ways and means to get assistance for
the 1900 mill hands who were forced
out of work.
"The Sixth District of New Orleans
is virtually supported by the Lane
Mills. Five hundred hands were
working in the mill when it was
closed. When the mill is in full oper-
alton several hundred more have EN-
ployment.
81 will confer with Secretary John
NJ. Breen, of the Typographical Un
ion, and Agent George Bodine, of the
Seamens' Union. These gentlemen
are representative labor leaders and
will endeavor to have them assist m'
in calling a meeting.

MOVEMENT Meets
With ENCOURAGEMENT
Every Citizen Who Has Been Asked
to Sign the Petition Has Attached
His Name to it-Success Practically
Assured.

Among the large number of petit
tions of various kinds which have
been circulated on the streets of Hat
tiesburg during the past few months,
the most popular of these is the one
asking the board of supervisors to
create q department of agriculture for
Forrest county, as provided by Chap
ter 103 of the Acts of 1908.
This petition seems to have met
with universal favor, as without a
single exception every man to whom
it has been presented has attached
his signature to it. While it is not
intended to secure large number of
signatures, as the request will be
made by delegation of citizens who
will appear before the board of super
visors at their regular meeting next
week, it is desired to get enough sig
natures to demonstrate the interest
which is being manifested by local
citizens in agricultural matters.

The cause that brought about the
fight was the trial of the case of the
six men, including two Cinnamon, who
were rounded up by Sheriff Kelly in
the raid on last Saturday, when quite
a quantity of the wet goods was con-
fiscated. The men were brought be-
fore Judge Murch in the district court
today, and on being found guilty were
fined 800 each and given thirty days
in jail
1t was amusing to see the two China
men when the fight between Prosecu-
tor Vollor and witness Ferguson took
place. The encounter was so sudden
and raised such a commotion that the
Chinks thought it was a lynching bee
that was about to be pulled off at their
expense, and were scared so badly
that it took quite a while to reassure
them.

Will MAKE
TEST CASE
City Will Advertise Railroad
Property For Sale For De-
linquent Taxes.

In order to ascertain whether or
not railroad property inside the cor.
porate limits and not used for rail
road purposes is subject to taxation.
Tax Collector Bennett has refused to
accept payment from the New Orleans
and Northeastern and the Mississippi
Central railroads on all their property
in the city of Hattiesburg, and will
advertise the same for sale for delin-
quent taxes.
Tax Assessor Beaumont contends
that property belonging to railroads
hich is located within the corporate
limits and is not used for railroad
purposes, is liable for taxes in addi-
tion to the railroad commissions as
sessment, and this year the assess
ment of these properties was made
accordingly.
The railroads contend that they
are not liable for taxes in addition
to the railroad commissions assess
ment, and therefore refused to pay
taxes on land which had not been as
sessed by the commission. Represen.
tatives of each of these railroads ten
dered payment to the city tax collec-
tor on the basis of this assessment,
but was not accepted by the tax col
lector on the grounds that it was not
charged against these companies.
The sale of these properties will of
course be enjoined by the railroad
companies, and the cases carried to
the supreme court for final opinion

STRIKE SITUATION
IS MORE SERIOUS
People of Philadelphia Are Fearful 81
Probable Results of General
sympathetie Strike.
(By Associated Press.)

Philadelphia, Pa, March 5.-Yester-
day all Philadelphia was in state Of
expectancy waiting the outcome of the
efforts to avert a general sympathetic
strike. Now the strike is on and to-
day the whole city is in a state OF
anxiety, wondering what effect the big
strike will have. Fear lies principally
in the probable results of thousands
of. union laborers roaming the streets
with many temptations thrown in
their way.
The worst disorders have occurred
since the street car mems strike start
ed were on Sundays, and now every
day will be the same as Sunday to
large part of unionized labor
I Many unions are still at work, their
agreements with their employers pro-
hibiting their going out Among these
are the printers, so Philadelphia will
be assured of its newspapers every
day, even if it has its meat and bl6<a
cut Off
The committee of ten from the
Dor unions has taken action wi
lis calculated to prevent as far as
sible real suffering by the general q
lie. An order was issued exempt
from the strike union employees of
city water works, the electric lii
plant, drivers of funeral carrias
and employees in hospitals and homl
The first disorder of the day curious
ly enough, was not by the men who
had walked out, but by traction en-
ployes who remained in. A squad of
negro police was sent to the traction
power house to protect the employees
at work in 33rd and Market streets.
When the police arrived and it was
discovered that they were negroes,
the power house employees made a
concerted attack on them with monkey
wrenches and other tools.
The police retired in bad order,
while the power house employees tele-
phoned headquarters, declaring that
white policemen only would be vel
Hor'ea as protectors.

President Jackson Invites Out Of
Town Concerns to Help on
Freight Matter.

A new feature was added to the
work of the committee appointed to
solicit subscriptions for the sale of
$4,000 Of the stock of the Mississippi
Valley transportation Company in
Hattiesburg, in return for which it is
proposed by t e company to place
Hattiesburg on what is known as the
Jackson and M eridian basis of freight
rates, and maintain the parity, which
if successfully carried out, will ma
terially assist in the work of the COM
mittee, distribute the burden of carry
ing the stock-if, indeed, there is any
burden-and give outside concerns
who will be benefited by the lowering
of freight rates into Hattiesgurg a
chance to show their interest in the
proposition.
President T. S. Jackson of the Com
mercial Club, is sending out letter
to every prominent manufacturer who
ships goods into Hattiesburg explain
ing the proposition and the benefits
to be derived from it not only by the
city. but by the manufacturers them
selves, requesting that each of them
mail him a check for the desired
amount of the stock, and assuring
them that he will see personally to
the issuance of it to whomsoever they
may designate.
