dan, having previously promised to deliver an educational address at New Orleans, will not be present, ,.nd desires me to express his regrets.
 The object Of this meeting is to arouse greater feeling of interest to a cause sacred to every true South efner, and if possible to enlist the' active cooperation of the Daughters and Sons of Veterans, who must soon take up the work where the gray haired sires will leave it off.
 The following extract from a gifted writer, just after the close of the greatest Civil War known to the vorld, may be of interest: And the fate of the poet priest. Catch your heart and hold your breath. Clothed ill sackcloth and in ashes he walks down the valley of silence, apart from other mortals, and hugs his cross to his agonized bosom for fear he lose it among the bones and skele- tons of his lost country. He turns Lis tear-dimmed eyes over his land oi memories and sees the remnant of Knighthood days toiling over their dead. He sees them gray in their grief, piling the mounds with flowers, the only bright offering in this vale of tears: he watches them till he can bear it no longer, and lifting his weary, bleeding soul on high, his panting nation hears his heart-brok- en cry.
 Furl that banner for it is weary
 Round it's staff 'tis dropping dreary,
 Furl it, fold it, it is best
 For there is not q man to Wave it.
 And there s not sword to save it :;
 And there's not one left to lave it
 In the blood which heroes gave it;
 And its foes now scorn to brave it i;
 Furl it, hide it, let it rest"
 In conclusion will say that arrange II ents have been perfected to have the High school building comfortably heated, and all old soldiers, whether in the Confederate or Federal serv- ice, are cordially invited to be pres ent along with all others who feel interested.

PRISONS BREEDERS OF DISEASE.

Washington-It has long been CON
tended that our prisons are fertile
breeders of tuberculosis. The inmates
injected during confinement spread the
germs when released, and even more
important, the goods made in prisons are
infected with the bacilli of the disease
and act as carriers of the dread malady
This fact is confirmed by Dr. J. A. Hayne,
secretary of the state board of health of
South Carolina, who in speaking of the
action of the board in reference to the
hosiery mill at the penitentiary, said:
We reiterated our position that the
hosiery mill at the penitentiary was not
a proper employment for convicts, was
deleterious to health and should be abol-
ished. The board at former meeting
recommended that the hosiery mill be
abolished, and Governor Blease took the
same stand, it being alleged that it was
a 'consumptive' mill, to use the express
sion of the governor in several speeches.
1t has been held that the hosiery mill is
a breeder of consumption, and in addi
ton to shortening the lives of the con-
victs employed there, when turned loose
after serving their sentences, endange-
the lives of the people of the state by
spreading the consumptive germs. The
state board strongly advises its aboli-
ton. This matter will undoubtedly come
before the legislature at its coming ses-
sion"

LABOR CONDITIONS BAD.

Buffalo. NJ Y.-A special investigator
before the state factory investigation
commission, in session here recently,
told of appalling conditions she had
found in the local meat packing plant.
About 1000 people are employed she
said. There is no distinction made be-
tween men and women. One of the build
ings is old and ramshackle and has been
condemned. In three OF the rooms that
examined the men and women were
forced to work in water standing half
an inch deep on the floor. Those were
the sausage, the picking and the pork
trimming rooms. In the latter there
were rs employees. 30 being women. The
floors are so wet and Shiny that the
women have to wear rubber boots or
stand on barrel tops. They work at cut
ting up the hogs. The men frequently
lose fingers in the machinery and the
women wore many bandages on their
hands The work is very disagreeable
and dirty. and the rooms are in filthy

BRANDEiS ON TRUSTS.

Louis d. Brandeis, the well-known
Boston lawyer, in testifying before the
senate committee on interstate COM
merce, in dealing with the trust ques-
ton, gave expression to the following
The successful trusts have created con-
ditions absolutely inconsistent with
Americas Industrial and social needs. In
our just Indignation over the crimes dis
closed at Los Angeles. should not states
men seek the cause of this widespread,
deliberate outburst of violence? Was it
not because they. and men like them,
believed that the Yage-earner, acting
singly or collectively, is not strong
enough to secure substantial justice? Is
there not casual connection between
the development of these huge and in
domitable trusts and the horrible crimes
now under investigation? Are not these
irresistible trusts important contributing
factors of social unrest? Is it not irony
to speak of equality of opportunity in a
country cursed with their bigness?"

COMPLIMENTS UNION LABOR.
Congressman Lafferty of Oregon Makes
EuIogistic Reference to Unions
on Floor of House.

Washington the consideration
of the Hughes eight-hour bill in the
house of representatives on Dec Ia,
Congressman Lafferty of oregon, said,
in part: Mr.. Speaker | desire to go
on record in favor of labor unions and in
favor of the great work organized labor
has done for humanity. This bill fixes
eight hours as the standard for days
labor on all government work. The
measure was introduced in this house
by the able member from New Jersey
Mr. Hughes), who is himself holder
of a card in a labor union. The Dill was
referred to the committee on labor, or
which the able member from Pennsyl-
vania (Mr Wilson,, also the holder of
a union card, has the honor to be chair
man | am glad to say that there are
thirteen other members of this house
who hold union cards, and we lind them
all here on the floor this afternoon work
ing for the passage of the bill. II unon
labor had done nothing more than TO
give us the bill now under considera-
ton, it would be entitled to the lasting
gratitude of the country. This bill sets
the standard at eight hours for full
days work, with a full days pay, for all
laborers and mechanics. No private en-
ployer can hereafter say that the de-
mands of his employees for an eiSht-hour
day is unreasonable. when the govern
ment has said by this bill, which we ara
going to pass, that it is reasonable. We
are also indebted to organized labor for
most of the laws heretofore passed look
ing to the health, comfort and safety OF
employees. The mad rush to obtain
money in the United States has been
the greatest obstacle in the way OF a
full and complete enjoyment by our
people of the blessings of a free re-
public. 1t is high time that sharp halt
was being called. 1t was written of old;
For what is man profited, if he shall
gain the whole world, and lose his own
soul?' That conditions are growing bet
ter is shown by the fact that we are
passing this bill this afternoon. The
people are rapidly coming to realize that
Lincoln's definition meant something,
and that this country is for the people.
If the people will send men to congress,
regardless of their politics. who are not
under obligation to the special interests,
we will in a few short years make this
country one Of by, and for the people.

SEVERE CRITICISM.

Washington-That the disastrous
wreck of last August on the Lehigh Val
ley road at Manchester, N. Y, in which
twenty nine persons were killed and
sixty-two injured, was due to a detective
rail; that weakness was due both to the
pressure on the rail and to mill defects,
and that the Lehigh company should
have known of the existence of the mill
defects, are salient features of the re-
port of Hiram w. Belnap, chief in
spector of safety appliances of the In
terstate Commerce Commission, which
has just been made public Mr.. Belnap
recommends a sweeping investigation
into the whole problem of defective
rails. 1t is understood the Interstate
Commerce Commission will discuss this
question in its annual report and recon-
II end that the investigation be made.

FOOLISH RUMoR.

Washington-Frank J. Hayes, vice
president of the United Mine Workers
OF America, in a statement before the
convention of the American Federation
of Labor at Atlanta, positively and en-
phatically denied the rumor that the
miners were considering Withdrawing
from the A. f. of l. He stated that the
miners had always been loyal to the
trade union movement and would con-
tinue so in the future. In spite of this,
there are one or two publications that
persist in repeating the rumor. Undoubt-
edly Vice-President Hayes voiced the
sentiments of the rank and file OF the
coal miners when he made his state
ment, and certainly he is more familiar
with the attitude of the miners than
any other individual outside OF the or
ganization.

retary of the international Seamen's

tee on merchant marine and fisheries
recently, that majority of the passen-
ger carrying ships on the Atlantic coast
did not carry a sufficient crew to hang
the life boats. He said that most of the
ships carried only boats enough for rs
per cent of the passenger carrying ca
pacity of the ships. Mr.. Frazier also
stated that in all of his experience he
had never seen boat drill at sea where
the life boats were swung out on the
davits. and also declared that the Slocum
disaster was due to an insufficient crew
asserting that the loss of life would have
been reduced one-half had a proper crew
been on board the boat.
