Get A Job or Leave Town.

SPARTANBURG, S. c., March s.
Get a job or get out of town." is the
ultimatum that has peen issued by
Spartanburg to all male residents,
whether permanent or temporary. A
determined drive against Migrants is
under way and a number of men,
without visible mean of support have
been given employment by the city,
but without other remuneration than
board and lodging. The casual tour
list who cannot show enough money to
pay his hotel bill and buy a railroad
ticket to the next town, is summarily
hailed into the Recorders Court and
given thirty days en- the rock pile.
1t is expected, as a result, that the
number of cases of pretty lawlessness
in and around the city will be greatly
reduced.

alleged to have hired men for road
work at a. rate lower than that al
lowab'e bv LAW. Long is said to
have paid his men by personal
check aud placed his claims for the
full amount against iho county.
Coke t said TO have had an under
