CHILD LABOR LAWS

Northern newspapers are again
beginning to direct criticism at child
labor conditions in the South. All of
which is cruelty unjust. The children
| employed in the mills, according to
our observation. are happier than
those on the farms. And the average
wage paid to a girl In n cotton mill
is more than the average wage paid
to stenographer.
The cotton mill industry is in its
infancy. There are many things to
be learned. but we believe the mill
managers are doing everything they
can to make the life and surroundings
of their employees brighter and hap
pier. And this is but the beginning.
II the experiments that have been
started should prove to be along the
right line, we believe that there will
| al Increasing amount of welfare
work. We have expressed the same
views In the past. but this gives op-
portunity for renewed avowal of our
interest in tho welfare of the mill
children and of our resentment Of the
officiousness Of these fanatics or en-
thusiast who declaim against the
south. while they are blind to the
tremendously greater evils of the
north.
There is no more comparison be-
tween the child labor conditions In
the south and In the north than there
is In graft" conditions in some small
town politics compared with the un-
speakable stencil discovered In New
York because Of the Becker case.
We would like to see every child
| taken from work and put into school
wherever possible The managers
OF the great manufacturing estab-
lishments have the labor OF children
thrust upon them. They do not seek
bor this class OF help.
There are more children under the
ago of IA working in the city Of Phila-
delphfa than in the entire south. Lit
tie wonder that we take exception to
the slogan. Child labor in the
South"
1t has always seemed disgusting to
us that while the offices of the Nat
ional Child Labor committee are In
New York the committee must al
ways be harping upon Child Labor
In the South" when there are 1000
children in the sweatshops in New
York. city to every "doffer boy" who
has time to run out and play q game

considerations he had $500 worth of

TRYING 20 BE FAIR

Some Of our good friends were per
turbcd yesterday because OF the
amount OF matter we carried I'm this
paper In Fridays issue with refer
ence to Cole l.. Bleasc. We wish to
assure these friends that the matter
was marked paid Advertisement !"
This paper has set out to give all
persons In politics Il square deal
Sometimes we get awfully bored with
the whole proposition, but we can't
see our way clear to "cut loose" and
bemean Il man just because we cannot
support him.
To set all doubts aside, we wish to
say that this It NOT Blease paper,
and that the matter which some peO-
pie objected to yesterday does not
express our sentiments. but we wish
to say further that so far as human
ly possible we will try to give this
man a square deal.
Sometimes he says harsh things Of
men whom we admire and respect.
things that make us feel very resent
full. that make us wish to make tine
cause OF our friends our own. But
there Is at stake in South Carolina to-
day too much more than the mere
holding OF Il few Jobs. too much more
than mere disgusting political cam
paign. There Is at stake the peace
and happiness OF the people. Stir
ring up strife will make them rest
less and dissatisfied The ncwspa-
strife. This is not true, but we wish
to see the campaign end without the
newspapers being forced to take much
part, and then. let the result be what
1t may. 1t cannot be charged against
the press that 1t cndeavored to stir up
the people and to excite n bitterness
that years might not eliminate.
In this connection. We have receiv-
ed letter from man in this coun-
ty, no doubt very good mrn. who
wishes to stop his paper. He says.
AFTER the time was up. I went to
taking another paper. II you can't
give justice on both sides. I was at
Greenville Saturday and 1 saw which
way it was. The paper said it was
all for Smith. saw two-thirds OF
them was for Blease. / don't want to
read your paper" This man who Is
strong for Justice on both sides" Is
not just himself for he does not tell
the truth. This paper did not say that
ut was ALL for Smith," We quoted
w. Mills Mooney, county chairman Of
Greenville county. as saying that the
crowd was to against Blease. We
did not even solicit the statement
from Mr.. Mooney and 1t was not sent
In by an employe OF this office. but by
man In whom we have the most i'm
plicit confidence, and since. has been
confirmed by some men OF undoubted
veracity, although we do not know
The question Of the crowd at
Greenville, however, Is Of minor con-
sideration. We rgeret that this man
whom we have never seen and may
never see. does think that The Intelli-
gencer has been unfair to his cham
pion. We feel sure that we have done
SO much to prove our earnest purpose
to be fair that we have been hurt by
the speculation on the part of some
very good friend that 1--WE were lean
ing toward Blease."
Again We say that the purpose OF

Again We say that the purpose OF
this paper Ia to try to present a clean.
readable paper. and to give the peo-
pie the news. Upon great moral is-
sues we will never hesitate to state
our views. But In this present issue
of mere personal politics. 30 much has
been said and written and spoken that
we will merely try to keep the record
straight and let the people select
whom they choose. We have our de-
cided convictions on this matter, but
do not think 1t necessary to express
them. And hereafter. when we pub
lish political advertisements. we will
so label them that none will fail to
observe. We cannot, under the Jaw,
refuse to take political advertising
that Is not of an offensive or scurri-
lous nature. and In fact, good conduct
would not permit us to reject it. II
the reading matter Is permissible as
to It's nature, any more than store
keeper or an inn-keeper or preacher
should reject the custom of the gen.
eral public.

Former Representative William b.

of the National Republican Congress
sional Committee. and who has been
reelected to the next Congress, is
in this city ON a brle. visit. In an in
terview, Mr.. Mckinley said, II believe
that the next Congress will witness
the solidtfying of the Republican
party. Among the new congressman
elected are many able and experienced
young legislators. They will find
the older members who have been re-
turned disposed to give them every
opportunity to part cipate actively In
the work and the committeeships.

on the Floor of the New YORK
Stock Exchange to Be
Created Tomorrow.

r
NEW YORK, Dec. IA. An open
market for all stocks on the floor OF
the New York STOCK exchange will
be created tomorrow. This action
was decided on this afternoon. It
was voted to eliminate begin
ming tomorrow the so-called clear
ing house list and to place
the stocks therein ON the same
basis OF trading as the 1s2 issues al
ready approved. The solitary ref
striction placed upon all stocks Is ID
be that their prices shall not 60 bee
low the minimum already established
The issues thus placed in the open
market are United States Steel
Southern Pacific, Great Northern,
Canadian Pacific, New York Central
and Anaconda mining issues an
known as international securities.
During the sessions Of. Saturday and
today the last vestige Of appreheiz
sion that foreign investors would
food the local market with q vast
volume OF selling orders was swept
away. 1t was this fear that had pre-;
vented the committee from listing tie
international issues among the aps
proved lists for open trading made
public last Friday. e.
