HUNTING SEASON
 OPENS OCTOBER FIRST.
Game Warden Bradford Says Week Will Be Clipped from the End.

There has been much discussion among the local sportsmen as to just when the open season on game birds would begin this year. A law cutting off week from each end of the open season, making it from Oct. to Nov. 23. inclusive, has been passed, but ac- cording to Game Commissioner c. H. Bradford owing to the fact that the legislature has not yet adjourned, the law will not go into effect until after Oct. 1, so that this year the open sea- sen will commence on the first as in years past. The season will, however, deubtless come to close on Nov 23. A large majority of the hunters re- gard the first part of October as too early for bird hunting on account of the heat and the thickness of the leaves. Cutting off the last week of the season will save a good many birds as under the old law there were probably more birds killed that week than any other. During the last of November conditions for hunting are most favorable and at Thanksgiving time many people have vacation which they devote to the pursuit of the HIrGs

TROUBLES OF THE LABOR UNIONS
Plumbers Submit Resolutions for by Other Unions-Carpenters Called off Universalist Church Settlement of Hod Carriers Strike Expected.

At their meeting Monday night in Carpenters hall, the Carpenters union had before it set of resolutions pre- pared by the Plumbers union as an outcoS1e of the meeting of the Build ing Trades council last Saturday night No action was taken, except to order that the resolutions be con- sidered at the meeting of the carpen- ters next Monday evening and the of ficers declined to state what the res-. oiutions covered
 Special meetings Of the other unions which belong to the building trades council will be held this week to vote separately upon these same resolu- tions. and the result of these meet ings will be reported next Saturday evening at another meeting of the building trades council. This was the result of the council meeting last Sat urday night although through a mis- understanding of the action differ ent report was given out by one of the officers, viz, that bosses and journey men would all have to show union cards on a job. No such vote was taken.
 When the building trades council met last Saturday night, the Plumbers union wanted action taken along a cer- tain line regarding the employment of plumbers which had been a devel- opment of the situation arising from the declaration of open shop by the
Norwich bulletin., 1911-09-26

master plumbers and the resolution of the union men not to work with union rnen. Action on this mat ter was opposed by some of those present in the meeting since those present were not delegated with the proper authority, and a vote was final iy passed directing the plumbers union to prepare and send to each of the locals the resolutions which were to be acted upon and that the votes of the unions be reported at the adjourn ed meeting. next Saturday night.
 Carpenters who have been at work on the Universalist church have been called off that job because there were non-union plumbers at work there. Ii was claimed that plumbing concern has two apprentices there doing the work of journeymen. and the union carpenters were not allowed to work with them, which means delay in the woodwork of the interior.
 It is expected that the strike of the hoocarriers will be settled today SC that the men will go to work and some of the construction jobs which were left suddenly a week ago will be re- stunned. There were meetings held Monday night and while verifications of the statement that the strike would be called off today could not be se- cured it was reported that the jobs which had been held up would be con- tinued today.

LIVELY RUNAWAY.
Horse Annoyed by Flies Pulled Up
 Hitch Post and Ran.

One of Dr. w. K Tingley's horses annoyed by flies, pulled up the hitch post to which it was fastened at Dr w. T. Browne's hous on Broadway on Monday morning, ran the length of Broadway at top speed, through She tucket street, to the docks and up Market street, where it was caught in fl ont of a fish market by John Cor man, driver of laundry team. It was a perilous stop for German, as the horse was without a bridle, but he managed to grab it by the nose and held on till it came to a stop.
 A few yards after the runaway started he got loose from the post, and in front of the Del-Hoff hotel he jumped a ditch in the street, leaving a wheel of the wagon there. At the end of the run the horse was uninjured and the only damage to the wagon was the broken hind wheel. The workmen in Main street had a narrow escape.

PROTEST TARIFF REDUCTION.
Mill Man Says it Will Turn the Mills
Into Soup Houses.

r. NJ. Miller, Jr., of Charlotte, N.
c.. chairman of the tariff committee
of the Americ ] Cotton Manufactur-
ers' Association FRAY gave out the
following official statement, protest
ing against the propose reuction in
the cotton taric schedule:
"The so-called Underwood bill on
the revision of the cotton tariff sched-
ule is bill formed apparently solely
in the interest of the importer and
foreigner-wholly unfair and unjust
to us-ignoring entirely the interest
of the American cotton manufacturer
and the American laborer and if en-
acted into law will turn the cotton
mills of our country into soup
houses.
BASED upon to-day's prices OF cot
ton yarns as best that I can figure, in
order that the manufacturers of this
country may meet the reductions in
the proposed schedule and to COM
pete with imported yarns, it will Mt
cessitate cut somewhere from 25 to
SO per cent in the wages of our cot
ton mill Operatives. This means pau
per wages to our American labortr to
meet the pauper wages Of Europe.
Will American labor stand for it?
The American cotton ntanufactltr-
ers protest against it.

WILL PASS OTHER BILLS.
Senator LaFollette Tells What, VIII
Be Done Soon.

"Ten the people Of Georgia, says
a Washington special to the Atlanta
Journal, "that Thursdays vote on the
wool bill in the senate clearly demon
strated that Governor Smiths vote
will not be needed for the passage
OF tariff legislation at this session OF
congress- said Senator LaFollette,
the insurgent leader, Saturday night,
following the passage of the eompro-
mise wool bill.
Moreover, Gov Hoke Smiths vote
won't be needed to put the farmers
free list bill through the senate, .
added Mr.. LaFollette.
1--WE will join the Democrats in
voting for that measure, and will
put the matter squarely up to the
President, you may rest assured, and
NAV inform the farmers of Georgia
that more than enough progressive
Republicans will vote for the free
list bill to make it's passage certain,
if ali Of the Democrats stand up as
they did on the wool bill"
Senator LaFollette's statement
concerning the attitude OF the in
surgents with reference to the Tar
mers' free list bill is the first posi-
tive intimation that has come from
the insurgent camp concerning this
all important measure. Its s!gnlfl-
cance is not to be underestimated. =

Watch of Missing Girl Found in the
Reptiles Stomach.

A dispatch from Forsyth, Ca, says
the finding of valuable watch and
chain in the stomach of large ALI
gator that died in a pond near there
Monday night is believed to solve the
mystery of the disappearance of r.
year-old Janet Thompson from the
home Of her parents at Island Grove,
Fla, two years ago. The alligator
was captured near Island Grove
some weeks after the girl disappear
ed and was brought to Forsyth by j.
NJ. Jackson. The little girl has never

bank and devoured. The parents of
the girl have been notified and the
watch will be returned ito them.
