Labor Recruiters
Reported to Have
Been At Work
In Plant City

Plant, City, Fla, Sept. 81
If somebody persists in the effort
to persuade laborers to migrate from
Plant City to Philadelphia or other
places, there's going to be trouble
for such individual; provided, the
recruiter has not paid the occupa-
tional license. There's two kinds of
recruiters nowadays; one wants the
able-bodied fellows to join the army,
and the other wants them to "go out
East and make big money" OF
course, war and rumors of war have
to do with beth campaigns.
Reuben Arnold, colored, was be-
fore Mayor Root in Municipal court
yesterday morning to tell what he
knew about labor recruiters being at
work in this city. The license for
such traffic is $500, and penalty for
violation is s2CO or sixty days in
Jail No enc has paid the license,
but someone has been trying to get
men to leave Plant City These facts
prompted an investigation, and as
Reuben seemed to know a little, he
was brought in to divulge it. No
arrests were made, however, since
Reuben did not know the names of
the two individuals he saw, and one
of whom, as he stepped on a train
last Friday night, he heard say to
several men standing about the
union station, ''If you boys want
trip to Pennsylvania, be down here
at the station next Sunday night,
when a rainload are going from
Tampa" OF course that set the ne
groes to thinking. A trip to Phil
adelphia sounds big to a negro, and
the result was large number
planned to make the journey. They
were disappointed, most of them, as
one of the leaders, or "go-between"
for the leaders, was arrested by the
officers in Ybor City Sunday night,
thus breaking up, for the present at
least, what small army of negroes
anticipated would be picnoc.
