BRING NEGROES TO TAKE
JOBS OF UNION MEN
Claim Made i'm Convention of Fed
Grafton of Labor.
Resolution AdOpted-Conditions in
Ohio May Apply to Other
States.

Baltimore. Md.-Ihe emigration OF
Southern negroes to Northern labor
ccnters was brought before the attcn-
tion OF the convention OF the American
Federation OF Labor when the Com
mittec on Organization iavorably re
ported a resolution designed to climi-
nate what was characterized as men
ace to the workers in the Northern
States
The resolution, which subsequently
was adopted by the convention, was
framed by members OF Ohio unions. 1t
recited that the investigation OF such
emigration and importation OF negroes
in the State OF Ohio had demonstrated
to the satisfaction OF labor leaders in
that State that they were being brought
North for the purpose OF filling the
places OF union men demanding better
conditions, As in the case OF freight
handlers
Believing that ''thc conditions that
prevailed in Ohio may apply in all
Northern States the president and
Executive Council OF the Federation
were instructed to inauguratc a move
mcnt looking toward the organization
OF negroes in the Southern States.
A resolution also was adopted look
ing to the organization OF depart
ment comprising those organizations
directly connected with the theatrical
industry.

Steel Cars on Railroad In India.

The Great Indian Peninsular rail-
road recently successfully expert
mented with one steel passenger coach.
and has now constructed an entire
train of that material. This train
runs as the Bombay-Delhi Express,
carrying intermediate and third-class
passengers. Each carriage is 6S feet
long and the body, including the roof,
is of steel plate riveted and welded
to steel supporting members, so that
the whole Of the body and the UNDER
frame, ON which the former is built
as one piece, are Of steel. Inside the
car proper the fittings and furniture
in touch with passengers are of wood,
as are the window frames, venetians,
etc, while the actual lining is Of as
bestos heat-resisting composition, held
up with wooden holdings secured to
the steel members. An interesting
point is that one carriage has all it's
internal woodwork made of Japanese
ash as an experiment.

CALOMEL MAKES
YOU SICK, UGH!
"Dodson's Liver Tone better than
calomel and can not saliyate

Calomel loses you day! You know
what calomel is. It's mercury; quick
silver. Calomel IS dangerous. 1t
crashes into sour bile like dynamite
cramping and sickenlrg you. Gallo
mel attacks the bones and should
never be put into your system.
When you feel bilious, sluggish,
constipated and all knocked out and
believe you need dose of dangerous
calomel just remember that your
druggist sells for so cents large bot
tie of Dodson's Liver Tone, VIII CHI is
entirely vegetable and pleasant to
take and is a perfect substitute for
calomel. 1t is guaranteed to start
your liver without stirring you up
inside, and can not salivate.
Don't take caiomsl! 1t makes you
sick the next day; it loses you days
work. Dodson's Liver Tone straight
tens you r ght Up and you feel great.
Give it to the children because it is
perfectly harmless and doesn't grippe.

Frederick, Md.-The future plans
of Mrs. Eloise Young English, VINO

for having shot and killed her nus
band, Arthur English, a New YORK

Jennings Bryan, and son OF III:
Thomas Dunn English, author OF
"Ben Bolt" are being kept secret ana
her home in the Catoctin mountains
seven miles from here, in which she
fired twelve bullets at her husband
is kept under al close guard.
Mrs. English declared she acted Ill
self defense in the shooting, ana tllatt
her husband had threatened 10 KIN
her. In This community Engl1sh Was
regarded as Of unsound MIND.
Mrs. English was formerly a belie
of this city and eloped with Arthur
English in 1900. He had been mar
ried before and was divorced.

Shortest Railroad.

The shortest railroad in America
and at the same time one of the most
profitable, according to one account, is
the Grand Island railroad, which con-
stitutes the only rail link in the trans
continental trade route that connects
Fort McMurray, OF the Arctic circle,
with settled parts Of Canada. The
road is operated and owned by the
Hudson Bay company. It is quarter
of mile long and cost less than $500
to build, the rail being Of wood, with
stray-iron facings. The rolling stock
consists Of two fiat cars which are
pushed by hand along the rails. The
freight rate for all classes Of COM
modities is $3.50 a ton and some idea
of the volume of traffic can be OBJ
tanned from the fact that in its 60
years of operation the Grand Island
railway has earned profits of more
than a million dollars.

Business Based on Service.

Modern business is built up largely
on guarantees. People don't trade with
folks they can't trust. That business
is getting freer from traps and hooks
is due largely to guarantees, scme of
which assure you of satisfaction or
your money back. Others promise long
continued service and free repairs,
while others give free trial till you
make up your mind you want to buy.
The idea is to help you get your full
moneys worth and to make you feel
safe in buying an article on which you
are not fully posted, but which you
want If it suits you.-Farm and Fire

Of the community meeting three or
four times a year to keep it clean and
beautiful; and we know another rural
community in which trust fund of
several thousand dollars has been
raised, the interest being used per
petual maintenance fund for the burial
grounds. What we set out to suggest.
however, is simply the opportunity for
cooperative work in redeeming these
country graveyards from their present
dreary hopelessness Of appearance.
If there is neglected family bury
ground near you, why not get few
1eighbors to join with you some Sat
urday afternoon in putting it into
shape, or if it is a church cemetery,
have the preacher fix a time for all
tie members to join in Identifying it
resolving in any case to plant some
trees, shrubs, vines and flowers next
fall?

President Ripley of the Santa Fe
railway declares his line will not obey
the Adamson S-hour work-day law I'M
til ordered to do SO by the supreme
court of the United States. Now the
Adamson act becomes the law of the
land on January ], 1917, and remains
the law until it is declared by the
courts not to be good law. If any
other labor leader would do what Mr.
Ripley has done-openly declare that
he does not intend to obey the law
men Of Mr.. Ripley's class would be the
first to term the labor leader a bad
citizen seeking to incite lawlessness,
criminal, and other names.
MIR. Ripley cannot justify his atti-
tude. 1t is arrogant, defiant and dis
respectful to congress, the president
and the law. His attitude is no better
than that of the "bootlegger" who be-
lieves he Is justified in selling whiskey
uCCduoC IL 10 Iil0 OPIhiOil Nult thV ~
hibition law is not good one, or any
other offender who defiantly ignores
some law of which he does not ap-
prove.
Mr.. Ripley should set better eX-
ample. for he would expect the au-
thorities to enforce laws protecting
his property in the event of strike;
he would expect the trainmen to obey
the law if HE approved it.
Mr.. Ripley's attitude will not win
for the railroads sympathy on the
part of the public, because. as whole.
the public belives that laws should be
obeyed.

THE COUNTRY GRAVEYARD AND
COMMUNITY spirit.

"We hardly ever travel a couple
OF hours in any country district with
out having some neglected country
graveyard remind us of DR.. Knapp's
saying, namely, that the average
country graveyard in the South looks
as if it didn't believe in a resurrec

An EXPLODED BELIEF.

1t is alleged with considerable heat
in some quarters that agricultural in
terests receive four times as much for
the care and protection of hogs and
cattle as the public health service gets
for the care of human health.
An Arkansas doctor the other day
seemed quite angry over the matter.
He said human beings are worth more
than hogs, statement that Pine Bluff
has heard off and on for years.
However. when money j s spent to
prevent or stamp out hog cholera,
bovine tuberculosis, foot and mouth
disease, etc, it isn't done for the COM
fort of the animals threatened, Or SOLE
ly to protect the farmers cattle, but
is done to protect the health of the
people.
Millions are spent for meat inspec-
ton for the same purpose.
The appropriation Of the federal
health service is small compared with
the money expended in the manner in
dictated, but the latter most decidedly
are preventative health measures
and most efficient ones, too.
All these departments of the gov
eminent are working for the public
good, and it ill behooves them to be
jealous of each others appropriations.

Ford Agency Changes Hands.

Messrs. Longshore, who have been
selling the Ford cars in Abbeville,
have given up the agency, and it has
been taken over by The L. w. White
Co. Mr.. Victor Lomax will be the
sales manager in the automobile de-
partment-
In order to carry full line of cars,
and to show them off properly, the
store-room next to the new office Of
The Press and Banner (the old post
office) has been rented, and will be
occupied at once by this branch Of
the business of the L. W. White Co:
The Ford is the most serviceable
car in general use. On this account,
and on account of the fact that it
sells for less money than any other
car on the market, it has always been
in great demand. 1t is now bought
by mail, over the telephone, and IN
other ways just as sugar and bacon
are bought, because a man knows
what he is getting when he buys 1t.
The readers of this paper, when
they are in the city, are invited 70
inspect the line of cars carried IN the
new show rooms. The new agents
will carry all shapes and styles OF
bodies. and these will be in stock, so
that a purchaser will not in the fu-
ture be called on to wait on his car
after he has decided to purchase.
