RED SPIDER
SPREADING

Owing largely to the extreme

Pest will, beyond a shadow of a
doubt, eventually overrun the entire
field.
in practically every case thus far
investigated the spider entered the
iield at point nearest to nearby
house yard in which grew violets
and other ornamental flowers and
their origin could be quite easily
traced to the letter. When the vio-
lets became overwhelmed, wilted
ana nearly dead the pest transfer
red to other plants closely such as
sunflOwer, dahlia, hydrangea, rose,
loke weed and several kinds of gar
den vegetables. In all, the red spi-
der has been seen and collected on

let and the guest only leaves her
hospitality when her cupboard is
barred. The others Of these plants
fall prey simply because they stand
in the wal Of the onrushing herd of
dcvastatorS.
At present then, the most prac-
tical preventative measure is to os-
tracse the innocent violet from the
society Of the front yard. On the
other hand, the most desirable rem
edical measures seem, at present,
to consist at the time Of first at
tack in pulling up anG destroying
the few infested cotton plants, or, if
it has gone too far for this to be
practical, then to apply one OF the
sprays suitable for this pest, either
dry sulphur anl lime, boiled lime,
sulphur solution, or some other one
of the reliable contact insecticides.

COURT
MUCH WORK WAS DONE
WITHIN A SHORT TIME
IMPORTANT CASES TRIED
BATESBURG WELL.
REPRESENTED.

The court Of General Sessions for
Lexington county convened Mon
day a. m. The charge of Judge
Prince was mastery and exhaustive.
The duties of grand juror was
made SO plain hat wayfarer could
no. err therein and crime in all its
phases was laid bare and protection
for life and property and strict con-
struction of the law was made clear
ly manifest by this learned Judge.
Numerous bills was handed grand
jury by Solicitor Zimmerman and
they went to work with full house
and hand. The first case was one
for obtaining goods under false pre-
lenses. Mr.. J. B. Holman our towns
man was foreman Of the panel and
the prisoner was convicted and SEN
fenced to pay fine Of fifty dollars.
The second case was for assault
and battery Of high and aggrava-
ted nature between a number Of ne
grOes near Swansea. This case was
fought with great determination by
p ] YoumaHs, Esq Of Columbia and
Solicitor Zimmerman prosecuted
with his accustomed vigor. The
jury whose foreman was also our
townsman, Mr.. J. M. Aialpass ac-
omitted the prisoner.
The third case was one for arson
against a New Brookland negro
named Gadsden. Barrett Jones,
ESQ, of our local bar was appointed
by The court to defend the prisoner
and MIR. Jones discharged the duty
with singular ability. His speech to
the jury was pathetic appeal and
ne was highly complimented by all.
Solicitor Zimmerman one Of us,
:2uducted the prosecution with his,
2t ability, and the peculiar feature
.as the star witness, a negro who
was beth des and dumb. The
judge could not find enc in the au-
djeace who kew the deaf and
dumb alphabet, but his evidence
lille by little was secured and was
telling on the culprit. The jury
which also was presided over by
one of our tovnsmen, J. Belton Mill
er, convicted the negro and he was
senteaccdto ten years inthe peniten-
tiary.
Some sensational features was
adduccd before the grand jury in

JOHN MITCHELL Is
ALWAYS CONSERVATIVE
Special to Labor World,

Special to Labor World.
NEW YORK, Feb. s.-speaking on
"Capital and Labor" at dinner last
evening, John Mitchell, former presi-
dent Of the United Mine Workers of
America said in part:
"On the one hand are found forces
that would deny to labor the right of
organization and combination, al
though exercising and enjoying the
benefit of these rights themselves; on
the other hand are forces at work
advocating and demanding the aboli-
ton of the whole competitive system.
Between these extremes stands a
great army of workmen and employ
ers earnestly striving to find grounds
of mutual agreement upon which the
rights and obligations of each may
be defined and brought into harmony
with all due respect to the opin-
ions of others, I submit that the path
Of safety, progress and justice lies in
the middle course, in the recognition
of the right of organization on the
part of both labor and capital, by
which and through which these fac
tors in our industrial progress may
work out their inevitable destiny,
counteracting freely each with the
other upon all questions of mutual
concern"

AN EYE OPENER FOR :@
THE TOBACCO USERS

Little boys and girls, mostly child
rem of foreign pauper immigrants, go
about the streets of all large cities
gathering up cigar butts. They carry
tin pals, which when filled they take
'home." In Newark, N. j., recently
a member Of the Trades Council of
that city accosted one of these child
rem and wanted to learn what the
discarded cigar butts were used for.
The child tried to escape, but finally
he admitted that he sold them to a
factory which makes cigars and
cigarettes. Moral: If you use tobacco
at all, buy the kind that bears the
union label Of the cigarmaekrs and
tobacco workers. That guarantees
them. No man would use that sort
of material. Cigars and cigarettes
made from such tobacco are a detri-
ment to the health of every user.
Call for the label. 49,

THE GARMENT WORKERS.

Big Business deplores the garment
workers strike in Chicago, because it
hurts business and threatens Chica-
COS supremacy as a clothing market.
Humanity loving men and women de-
plore it because it means starving
and freezing of thousands of defence.
less men, women and children. Why
don't they go back to work and thus
avoid starvation? Great God, isn't it
better to starve and freeze al at once
than to drag it out over weary years
of hopelessness and unrequit-
ted toll? If ever there was cause
that appealed to the hearts of men
and women with bowels of compass
sion, it is the cause of the $4,000
garment workers of Chicago who are
f1ghting-not for luxury and ease, but
for a chance to live like human be-
ings and raise their children after the
manner of humans instead of after
the manner Of dumb brutes. The
struggle Of the striking garment
workers of Chicago is merely the fight
of men and women who want to be
recognized as having souls.-Lincoln

MISFORTUNE OF POVERTY.

Poverty is a social disease. The
poor as class cannot escape poverty.
It is inherent in the nature Of the
social system. Wealth accumulates
in the hands of the few, because the
laws endow the few with the legal
power to draw to them the wealth
that the masses produce. Poverty is
no longer due to the paucity Of
wealth. It is due to the negotiable
distribution of it. Society makes and
enforces the laws, which make mil
lionaires and paupers. It can abolish
these laws and free itself from the
disease Of poverty.-Ontario Indus

WOULD PROVIDE FOR
THE DOWN AND OUT
Associated Charities Favor the
Establishment of State
Labor Colony.

At a meeting Of the Associated
Charities held this week it was de-
cided to urge the present legislature
to pass a bill which will authorize the
establishment of a state labor colony
to which -deserters, Migrants,
tramps and other offenders may be
sent.
At the present time desertion is
one of the biggest problems for court
officials of the county to solve. There
are but few laws concerning it and
even though the offender is arrested
he can only be sent to jail for few
days, while his family may continue
to suffer.
At the state labor colony this man
could be made to work and his earn
ings would be sent home to help sup
port the wife and children.
The legislature is also asked to au-
thorize the governor to appoint a
commission to investigate pauperism
and housing conditions and report on
legislation needed.
The resolution follows:
whereas, Certain causes of or
factors in promoting undesirable liv-
ing conditions, i'll health or pauper-
ism, such as poor and 'insanitary
housing, overcrowding in tenements,
methods of dealing with minor Of
Tenders and Juvenile delinquents, and
other causes could be greatly bettered
by remedial legislation, and
'Whereas, Such legislation should
depend upon the extent of undesir-
able conditions, and should be based
upon a careful study of the expert
ences of other states and countries,
therefore, be 1t "
Resolved, That the legislature of
the state of Minnesota is hereby Pc
titioned and urged to authorize the
appointment by the governor Of a
commission of five citizens of Mime
sofa, consisting of three experts on
social or charitable subjects and two
lawyers to study the subjects men,
toned above and such other undesir-
able living conditions, i'll health or
pauperism, as they may elect; said
commission to serve without compen-
sation, but to be authorized to en-
ploy a competent clerk and to incur
other expenses for printing, station
cry, postage and typewriting, the
total cost not to exceed $4,000; said
commission to be required to report
at the next session of the legislature
the results of its Investigations with
suggestions as to remedial legisla-
tion.''

THE BEST CHARITY.

The wisest charity is to help man
to help himself. To put a man in
the way of supporting himself gives
him new lease of life, makes him
feel young again, for it Is very many
times it is all the man needs to re-
store him to public health. People
who have been bolstered up and lev
cred all their lives are seldom good
for anything in a crisis. The trades
union movement teaches its members
to work for themselves, and when
charity is given it is because sickness
prevents the bread winner from work.
ing. It's mission is to keep its men,
bers employed and when this is done
it helps men to help themselves.

EXPLOITING THE PUBLIC.

1t will not do to exploit the public.
The trouble with business In this re-
cent period of extraordinary expan-
sion has been too much exploitation
and too little regard for the perma-
nent interests of society. Since work.
1ngmen are being dealt with in bodies,
they must be dealt with upon princi-
pies of reciprocity and partnership.
We are working in the interest of
business and not against it, when We
oblige all to regard it's action as a.
