Newspaper Statistics

That there are fewer newspa-
pers in the United States now
than there were a year ago was
revealed by figures from the
American newspaper annual. A
year ago the daily newspapers
numbered 2472; the annual lists
thirteen less this year. New Eng
land lost four dailies, New York
four, the middle west nine, and
western states thirteen. There
were gains in the southern and
middle Atlantic sections. There
are forty less weeklies and elev-
en- less Semi-Weeklies.

HAYWOOD RAPS STOCK
YARDS CONDITIONS

YARDS CONDITIONS
William D. Haywood, leader of
Industrial Workers of the World,
who is in Chicago to superintend
the organization Of working mel
at the stock yards, denounced
conditions under which men are
obliged to earn a living wage at
the yards.
Conditions are as bad as they
were before Upton Sinclair wrote
"The Jungle
For an average wage of 81
men are Shaving for Il and even
IA hours a day.
Government inspection is
farce. 1t is merely formality
that enable the companies to put
government label on goods and
get more money from the public"
This so-called inspection costs
the people of the United States
100000 annually.
Haywood admitted the prob
ability of strike being called in
the yards. He is not dismayed
by the terrible failure of the la
boring class to stand against the
money-burdened packers in 1905.
He said: "Workingmen have
intelligence, even if they are il
literate. If we call a strike this
year, we will win"

Nearoes Pleased with Blease.

The following letter in the Co.
lumbia State has attracted a great
deal of attention, and the Times has
been asked by some of the people of
this community to give it publicity
as one of the pieces of evidence in
the campaign:
To the Editor of the State::-I no
ticed in Sundays State where Gov
Blease said in his campaign speech
at Chesterfield that he did not tell a
negro audience in Columbia that he
favored letting them have their
share of privilege tax.
This statement may be correct,
but the good Governor did say ne
favored letting them have all their
tax money for their schools.
Furthermore he advised the ne
groes not to be towards and if a
white man comes to his house and
acts somewhat indecorous, shoot hell
out of him, and if the courts send
you to the penitentiary. | will par
don every one. He urges the ne
groes to take no backward step in
the right.
The negroes of South Carolina
are we'll pleased with the admins
tration of Gov Blease, as he is not

president of Allen University puts
it Those few negroes who can vote
will surely cast their ballots for

SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION.
Insurance Commissioner Warns
Farmers of Storing Uncured Hay

Insurance Commissioned Warns
Farmers of Storing Uncured Hay
Spontaneous combustion in hay
is causing a number of fires through
out the State, according to Insur-
ance Commissioner McMaster. He
gives the following instances:
A small store was recently burn
ed in Columbia, and it has been sat-
isfactorily established that it was
due to spontaneous combustion in
several bales of hay which the store
keeper had purchased the day be-
fore. The store-keeper on Satur-
day morning had purchased from a
country wagon several bales of hay
which had been recently gathered.
1t was piled in the back
part of the store and the
evening sun beating on the rear end
of the store caused that part of the
house to be considerably heated.
This seems to have set the hay on
fire, and about o'clock next morn
ing the flames were discovered.
The building was consumed.
Mr. Boozer, who lives near Cross
Hill, hauled several loads of un
cured hay into his barn. A hand
who went to feed the stock found
that the hay was heated, but paid
no attention to it At midday, when
there was no one about the barn,
which was in a field, the hay burst
into flames and the barn was con-
sumed.
Mr. Lewis Cook, who lives near
Bishopville, on the day before this
fire, had hauled into his barn some
uncured oats in bundles. The next
morning, at feed time, the oats were
found to be quite heated, but no
attention was paid to it, and before
II o'clock in the day, flames had
started in the oats and the barn was
consumed.
