EDUCATIONAL CAMPAIGN

It being fact that the education
al interests of Henry county are suf-
fering because of loss of many of
it's best teachers, who are forced by
meagre salaries and high cost of liv-
ing, to go to other counties and sta
ties and to other work where better
salaries are in effect. And, since this

The county superintendent and
board of education for Henry county
in behalf of the children of our coun-
ty, who are now and may continue
to be sufferers, and also in behalf
of the future citizenship of our coun-
ty which may be inevitably and so
seriously effected by the present con-
ditions and great lack of competent
teachers, are now putting on a
countrywide campaign in the hope of
reaching and enlisting every parent
in their cryinginterests of his child,
to the end that he may ask his mag

ton to sufficiently compensate its
teachers that they may be retain

CHARLIE ROSS DEAD.

There is sad affair to report in
the death of Charlie Ross, eighteen
year old son of Ollie Ross and grand
son of G. R. Bostic, both of Henry,
neighboring community. His death,
that occurred in an hospital in st.
Louis, was caused from accidental in
jury received three months. ago while
in the employ of the Western Union
Telegraph Co. He had been work
ing at Leitchfield, H., for the past
year. The fatal accident occurred
at M Olive, a place out from Leitch-
field. It seems that he was on the
end of truck, and pulling, with
some other men, a disabled truck.
The truck he was on started unex-
pectedly, he slipped, and the truck
they were pulling ran over him, dis
locating some of the vertabrae OF
his spinal column.
The first intelligence that the FAM
lily had of his death was through one
of our local stores, Johnson & Van
Cleave, who were requested in tel
egram to notify the family of the boy
to make arrangements to meet the
body in Martin on Wednesday after
noon.
He leaves his father, Ollie Ross, 2
brothers, VIM. and Hilia, and a
grandfather, C. R. Bostic, with whom
he made his home, prior to his stay
in Illinois. The four live in Henry.
1t is supposed that he will be bur-
led at Henry.

LOVE FINDS WAY;
COUPLE RUNS AWAY

Saturday afternoon saw the culmi-

Mabel Dillon Small came from Me-
tropolis, ILL.,, to be married. 1t was
the proverbial story of obdurate pa

god" can outwit even a stern father.
The young people lacked a year OF
being of age to legally marry without
the consent of their parents. In
Tennessee one has only to be eigh-
teen. This, perhaps, explains the
special delivery letter received by
County Clerk Dale, requesting him
to make arrangements for license
and minister, for Saturday. J. E.

Powerful Labor Bodies.

Labor's triple alliance, which just
now is demanding much from the en-
ployers of England in the way Of
shorter hours, higher wages and liv-
ing conditions such as never before
were dreamed of by British workmen,
numbers approximately 100000 men
with auxiliary forces Of some hun
dreds Of thousands more. It's demands
have been taken seriously by the gov
ernment.
The triple alliance, which Is re-
garded as one of the most powerful
labor bodies in the world, is made up
Of the Miners Federation of Great
Britain with 100000 members, the Ma
tional Union Of Railway Men with
100000, and the Transport Workers
federation with 250,OOO. Dependent
upon it's action, because strike of
the alliance means unemployment for
them, are the National Council of Col
nery Workers, Locomotive Engineers
and Firemen, the Railway Clerks as
ISOLATION and 9 1HmhAr Of others.

Urges Gard Rating Of Workers.

Application to industry Of a card
rating system for employees, similar
to that used in the army, was urged
as a step toward solution Of labor
problems by speakers of a round table
conference of the Society Of Industrial
Engineers at New York.
w. S. Macarthur of Armour & Co.,
Chicago, explained the personnel sys-
tenn now employed in the Armour In
dustry, asserting that it's ratings had
proved Of great value in placing men,
had proved valuable check on pro-
motions through favoritism, and had
stimulated ambition among the work
ers.
Every single trade" he said, needs
training, and the workers In them are
hungry for the training. There are
100000 adults in this category. But
we should begin to train the boys and
girls of fourteen years Of age and not
wait until they are eighteen or twenty
years old"

Seek New Labor Policy.

The Importance OF the recent strikes
in London lies in the fact that labor
wishes to change the entire policy Of
the British government, shaping it
along lines favorable to laboring in
terests, according to the first report
by cable to the department of labor
from an industrial commission sent
by the department to Europe.
The demands were largely for short
er hours, specifically in the case of
the subway workers, to whom the
47-hour week has been conceded, al
lowances for lunch to be included in
the days working time, but state
ments were freely made that these
demands were only Introductory, that
demands for still shorter hours would
follow and that finally working day
Of only five hours would be reache9

REAL ISSUES ARE MANIFEST
Nation First to Restore Economic Or
der viii Be Winner in Struggle for
Trade-No Time Now for Expert
ments In Anarchy.

Ben Tillett, English labor leader,
writing recently said: "There is a
seething discomfort, but at least to
have our grievances mishandled by a
set of vicious anarchists, in sympathy
with, or in the pay of, the central
powers, would be the limit of stupid
ity and credulity. The whole ecOnOm-
ic and industrial as well as political
world is in a melting pot, and the ma
tfon which first puts itself in order
will be the first to win and secure eco
nomic advantage over the other ma
tions less disciplined and organized.
ut is fatal to forget that Germany,
with its habits of discipline and slav-
tsh adherence to system, is the same
Germany In industry as in war. All
the leading organizations and leading
men representing working class inter
ests have ruthlessly backed up the
worst atrocities practiced on our sea-
men and on our soldiers, and on the
stricken areas of France. The pres
ent president himself encouraged o.
OOob uHu DdChCu
up all atrocities, the military and the
junkers, with assiduity. The same
Majority Socialists have ignored even
the tll-advised and sickly sentimental
Berne conference with it's mockery of
representation.
"The scramble for trade, for raw
supplies, for food, transport, will
break down even the glorious senti-
ment of patriotism, and strange as 1t
may be, the crazy creatures who have
no country are the deadliest enemies
to their own. Labor has most to gain
by a class loyalty, by patriotism, by
love Of country, and all that industry,
power, wealth, comfort, and happiness
mean is wrapped up in patriotism.
ut is distressing to think that all
we have done is to allow incompetent
politicians of the labor ranks to talk
and sidetrack the real issues of trade,
Of industry, and of trade-uniOn organ
ization.
Strikes, uncertainty of action, linn
tied and vicious circles of action, can
only result in greater gain to the cap
italist, who will not starve but will
fleece even his weaker brother rather
than go under in the struggle for ex-
istence"

AS TAFT SEES 1T.

In an address delivered at Maiden, Mass, for
mer President Taft one of the worlds greatest
urists and thinkers used the following language in
referring to the coal strike:
They are deliberately doing SO in order to
compel the public to compel the employers in some
way or other to yield to the demands of the com
binations of workingmen. In any ordinary strike,
incidental annoyance to the public which is negli-
gible does not render the strike illegal But when
enormous combinations of workingnren deliberately
enter upon country wide plan to take the country
by the throat and compel the country to compel the
employers in that particular field of industry to
yield to the demands Of the men, they are engaged
in an unlawful ,nspiracy. The sacredness of their
individual right to labor on sucl. terms they
choose and to leave that employment when they
will does not protect or Justify them in such con-

What O+her Editors Say

In its issue of October 2. The Dublin Courier
Herald carried an eght-page advertisement Of the
Laurens Hardware Company and it enter
tanning that we just sat still and read it. This is
like advertising is done in the biggest cities and is
what makes cities grow large. We have often said
to timid merchants during the past fifteen years
that it would surely come to pass that in day
Yankees would not be the only users of advertis-
ing The big change has come within the past
two years. Maybe it is because the government
used so many miles Of newspaper inches for big
and serious work. Anyhow all the papers, big
and little, are feeling the change. Both farmers
and merchants using the ad that travels fastest
and cheapest and stays at the home of possible
customer until he comes in and the printed sales
