Iobless Men.

The experts who gathered at New York City
last Friday and Saturday in the first National
Conference of Unemployment found a consider
able task on their hands The aim of their de-
alterations was to decide some method for
coping with the problem of unemployment, which
is rapidly reaching acute stage in this country.
A short time ago young factory girl headed
q long parade of unemployed girls and women in
a march to Cooper Union Hall, where a mass
meeting was held in order to call the attention
of the city officials to the desperate situation IN
which these working women found themselves.
While they were inside the famous old hall
pouring out their woes and denouncing the con-
olitions which would make such an affair neces-
sary, than three hundred thousand men and
women were outside the hall scattered through
the great noisy city hunting for work, but un-
able to find it. More than twice many have
applied to municipal lodging houses this year as
last and of all the persons seeking place
through the public employment offices only one
job has been found for every five applicants One
organization discovered after making in
designations through the newspaper offices, that
twenty-four thousand people had responded to
eight hundred want ads in the New York papers
in day. And in the state at large, it is esti-
mated that of all persons willing and able to work.
161 per cent are unable to find jobs.
1t around Christmas time that Chicago
found on her hands hundred thousand men and
women seeking work for whom work could be
had. At about the same time, long parade
Of unemployed men marched to the city hall in
ST Louis demanding work. Out in San Francis
twenty thousand unemployed men pa
rading and marching about demanding the right
to work and declaring that nothing except steal
ing was standing between them and starvation
Philadelphia authorities number their unem-
p,oyed at seventy-ive thousand during this pres
ent month In Los Angeles thirty five thousand
are idle; in Newark N j. twenty-five thousand
while in Chattanooga, Tenn, over one thousand
high-grade workers are unable to find positions.
When Ford began his profit-sharing scheme
in his automobile factory at Detroit his plant
was mobbed by ten thousand unemployed men
seeking jobs.
According to the United States census, one
in every four working persons is thrown out of

Robert Louis Stevenson did not have the mag
nificence of Millions style; he not able to
overflow with the emOtionalism which poured out
of Dickens; he did not have a grasp OF the IN
trcaces of human motives and character as did
Browning and Meredith; he did not store up
such fund of knowledge concerning human
ciety as did Thackery. His style is not as limpid
as that of Anatole France nor as easy to follow
as that of Matthew Arnold He never had it in
him to develop the breadth of appeal of Tolstoi,
Balzac or Victor Hugo He not Olympic.
Nevertheless, there have been few men in
literature so widely read, so irresistibly attrac-
tive and so heartily loved as the author of Treas
ure island.
Stevenson's books are not literary documents,
they human documents, and one reads them
and re-reads them just as he will con over for
the tenth or eleventh time the letters of some old
friend
There shines through all his books the Won
derful unexplained mystery of personality In
life all who met him loved him. and the fragrance
of his presence was such that he drew all men
to him.
Perhaps the richest thing in his personality
was the depth and intensity Of his own individual
Experience. To whatever duty he responded, to
whatever occasion he yielded himself he gave
MS WnOIe Delng so CnaL ne possessed cOSmOpOll-
tan heart if not cosmopolitan mind.
1t was the richness of his personal experience
that enabled him to appeal to many different
classes. He has something for everybody. The
children learn his childhood poems by heart.
Boys and girls in their teens read his thrilling
stories of adventure. Serious and reflective
minds find never diminished delight in his es-
says and criticisms

discovery he made that sorrows, losses and trag-
edies in any human existence not fatal to
human happiness. He wrestled for years with
"old bloody Jack" as he Familiarity dubbed the
tuberculosis that finally killed him, but during
those years, when he was often unable to think
through excess of pain, he always presented to
the world his "happy morning face" and taught
his fellows that happiness is not accident but
Ia duty
Stevenson has received so cordial reception
at the hands of his critics, he has for him
self so permanent place in the literary world,
that he has come to seem almost classic. He
has taken his place among the immortals.
1t is because of this, perhaps, that the death
of his wife few days ago in California came as
somewhat of surprise to his readers. They
awakened with startle to realize that by rights
he belongs to the present generation and that he
might still be with us had not the white plague
carried him off in the morning of his powers.
Unlike many literary geniuses, Stevenson
had genuine affection for his wife. The story
of their relationship is as charming and as fra
grant as any story born in his imagination

AFTER THE TIGERS

II is interesting news that comes
from Anderson to the effect that the
city council has taken hold Of the men
who are in the blind tiger business
In that city. and it is handing out
to them good stuff fines with impris-
onment. This is as il should be. No
place should allow blind tigers to de-
fy the law
We are glad to see that The Daily
Intelligencer is backing up the coun-
ell not only by publishing the names
OF the tigers, but in expressions of
endorsement. and of hearty approval.
This Is no more than any honest news
paper should do, but II is more than
some of them have done in the past.
1t might be good idea for Green
wood to take another whack at the
tigers. No one has any use for them
The lowest and meanest man on earth
Is the dow down debased white fman
who goes into the blind tiger business.
He Is not fit to live in any decent COM
munity.
If he in Greenwood he should
be routed and II possible sent to the
penitentiary.-Gree Journal.

LAST APPEAL
TO THE VOTERS


10 the Editor OF The Intelligencer:
Please allow me space in which to
call the attention OF the public IL this
last appeal so necessary for the gem
eral election. have some cause. while
DR.. Walkers first appeal OF two weeks
ago mas been endorsed. to make an
other and last appeal for the time 80
nearest the election as to create good
interest in the hearts OF South Caro-
lima.
L, Is OF importance now that the vot-
crs OF South Carolina are again asked
20 support at the general election on
Tuesday, November 3rd. the two
amendments 80 proposed to the state
constitution, in joint resolution by
the General Assembly at the last meet
ing. that the Cedar Spring school for
the Deaf. located at Cedar Spring,
>. e., be In one amendment removed
from the class of penal and charitable
institutions. and then in the other
amendment be classified with the ed
ucatioial state-supported institutions.
The joint resolution for the classi-
fication originated with Representa-
tive Jesse w. Boyd, OF Spartanburg.
s. c.. on his own initiative, and backed
up by DR.. Walkers suggestion. The
resolution was passed at the general
assembly. and the Committee ON Ju-
dietary. to whom 1t was referred, PASS
ed that resolution to submit to the
voters for ratification at the general
election.
1t has been seen fit to emphasize the
public upon the proper constitutional
classification by the following facts:
% The education Of the deaf in
the state on such. a high scale with
the other best state schools, and the
overshadowing of the old idea OF char
ity.
t2) The school already supported
as are the other state institutions So
classified, by the public tax.
(3) The possible advent of one of
the great issues Of education now in
v1ew,-the state school compulsory
education or attendance law that
would apply to the deaf as well for
such school properly classified as
educational.
(4) The state association already
the step to the Improvement for fur
ther welfare. Other benefits in view
too many to make out here,-as the
public might know whatever the ben
efits are for the deaf, SO are the wise
voters requested to explain the mean
ing OF the vote to the ignorant.
Remember to the point how. to vote
right on the two amendments, very
necessary to each other. Cast two SEN
arate ballots with the explanation
given thereon for each of the two
Remember to the point how to vote
right on the two, amendments, very
necessary to each other Cast two sep-
arate ballots with the explanation
given thereon for each OF the two
amendments and ethe words: For

You will be thanked with fair graf

carry; and at last, III the cause of
education is South Carolina's cause.
