A PREMIUM ON CRIME.

The people of this country are be

government intends to tolerate the
thinly yelled sedition of William Ram
dolph Hearst and his treacherous
brood of alleged newspapers.
Ever since his organization was
kicked out of Great Britain for its
egregious mendacity and plain fax
ing" this shameless l. W. w. of the
newspaper world has modified all its
resources TO arouse bitterness and
dissension between this country and
the great Ally whose mighty fleet has

THE T0RRENS LAND TITLE
SYSTEM.

The house committee to which it
was referred has returned a favorable
report on the Torrens land title bill,
which IS in all probability ne most i'm
portant measure that will come up dur
ing the present session of the Georgia
legislature.
The bill was introduced by Hon. H.
Lee Barfeld, of Bib, prominent bus
mess man, who made the race for the
general assembly for the purpose.
Tie Chinese alphabet is not more
complicated than the present anti
quated system of preserving land titles
i, Georgia, it often being necessary to
pay large lawyer fees to run down"
titles and make other necessary inves-
igations concerning land from the days
OF King Solomon to date.
In practice, this improved system
works in the following manner:
Il. A title is examined once ofici-
ally and confirmed by order of court.
That ends the matter, and cuts out the
endless examinations of titles now nee
essary Your title is registered. and
you have made permanent improve

LW.W. VS.. ORGANIZED LABOR.

There is a disposition in some quar-
ters to offer a defense on behalf Of the
I w. W. agitators who were forcibly
ldeported from Bisbee, Arizona, few
days ago by the local authorities, as
lsisted by a considerable proportion of
the civilian population. The hardships
Imposed upon the 1900 exiles were IN
Iquestionably severe and the action of
the Bisbee authorities in inaugurating
the deportation can hardly be justified
exasperating though the circumstances
may have been which brought on the
climax. In the words of President Will
son, the least that could be said of
the occurrence was that it established
most dangerous precedent"
In denouncing the Bisbee authorities
and general populace participating in
the deportation. the tendency Of sew
eral newspapers of the east is to class
the I w. W. agitatorsaas bona fde labor
union organizers and members. In the
accepted sense of the term, the Indus
trial Workers of the World, contrary
to the meaning ostensibly conveyed in
! the title, do not constitute bona
fde labor union The fundamental
principles governing the organization
are not accepted or endorsed by the
American Federation of Labor.
The I. W. W. as such, is product
of the Pacific coast states, where the
percentage of floating population, or
rather, of individuals with no visible
means of support is VIGOROUSLY high.
In the seaports, such as Seattle, Port
land, San Francisco and Los Angeles,
the l. W. WIS have gathered strength
until these cities have become hotbeds
OF more or less anarchistic thought, for
the fundamental principles of this or
ganization are closely allied in many
respects to those of the most rabid an
Iarchists.
Anarchistic sentiments may be heard
from the lips of I. w. W. soap box ora
tors in the streets of the Pacific coast
cities and on Sunday afternoons along
the waterfront these disciples of VIC
lonce preach their doctrine to crowds
of men "constitutionally opposed tc
everything in general Down with the
army; down with the navy" are com.
mon expressions in the mouths of I
W W. orators.
The l. W. W. movement has spread
, toward the east and is just at present
playing a prominent part in the dis
tCrbances in the mining regions, while
the cities of the middle west are ex.
: periencing touch of the same anar.
chistic spirit
5 While good citizenship hesitates t.
( approve of such sundry action as that
taken by the people of Bisbee in rid
ding themselves of distinct menace t.
their peace, prosperity and persona
safety, the attempt on the part of Ger.
! tain interests to prejudice organized
labor in favor of the Industrial Work
: ers of the World is a glazing instance
; of mis-statement of facts to attain a
| given purpose.
Organized labor should not be misled
by these palpably self-serving declara-
tons, for Il. w. W.ism" has nothing in
common with bona fide labor unionism
a. far as basic. fundamental principles
are concerned.
