G.. O. u. WORKING ON NEED
NEGRO VOTERS IN SOUTH

VIII II. Hays. republican nation
.al chairman, makes a trip into the
south and consults. with the repub-
lican chairman. Mere mention Of
his trip is made i'm the newspapers.
Neither from Hayes nor from any
of the other conferees has come a
statement of the subjects discussed
at these meetings and it is liz the
subjects that the chief interest is
expressed here.
The history of the last few years
and especially that period just
prior 10 the 1916 election, viii re-
late OF the marvellous movement Of
negroes from the southern states
into the doubtful states OF the
north. Indiana experienced some of
that history and it will be recalled
that more than 5000 negroes enter
ed Indiana and took positions in
factories where places could be
found. others did not work. in
some manner they were enabled to
maintain themselves at least until
the elections were held
II is this question that many lab
orers in the doubtful" states would
like Mr.. Hays TO answed. Did you
discuss methods Of transporting ne
groes into these states and if so,
how are they going to be organized
this time and induced 20 invade
where. there is an oversupply Of
labor"
There is. one other question Of in
terest The south will need all the
labor il can ind and it i the com
mon belief that most OF the negroes
will return TO their homes when
they are released from the army. II
they desire 10 go TO other .tstes, the
south cannot object. But with the
demand for farm production and
the opportunities IN the south to
iii the wants Of the world. there
will be a need for all available ne
gro labor. Is Mr.. Hays organizing
or preparing 20 organize the negroes
into a state OF rebellion. TO enkindle
the flames or rsae prejudice and
urge the negroes on 70 assault upon
the people with whom they have
lived for years.

Molly Maquires,

The Molly Maguires originated In
Ireland in 1S43 during the rent trou-
bles there. The name was derived
from Cornelius Mcguire. baron of In
niskillen. Molly was added because
most OF their raids we're made while
dressed in women's clothes. The
pennsylvania society was organized
In 1896, and was composed for the
most part Of Irishmen. For ten years
prior to 1877 1t terrorlzed the inhabi-
tants of the coal mining sections of
Pennsylvania. Murders were COM
United and vast quantities of coal and
other property were destroyed. In
1875 their depredations extended
throughout the section and the mi
litla had to be called out to suppress
the disorders. After the militia had
been withdrawn number of brutal
lnurders were committed, which re-
suited In an outburst Of public wrath
which forced arrests and the convic-
ton and execution Of ten members Of
the society. This put an end to the
terrorism.-Brooklyn Eagle.
