A Gloomy Labor Day.
lst. Louis Post-pispatch.l

(St. Louis Post-Dispatch.)
The old joyous holiday spirit, the
festival flavor Of former times was
absent from today's Labor Day cele-
bration. Solemnity must needs mark
ceremonies conducted under the
shadow of such unemployment as the
country has never before known.
''Six million unemployed" is stag
gering sociological fact that connotes
distress and hardship beyond COM
prehension. Its econ omic significance
is also incomprehensible. 1t is, of
course, plain that when six million
people are out of work many times
six million dollars are out of work.
The loss in production from such vast
idleness of labor and capital runs into
1ismaying totals.
Labor and capital looking sullenly
Fat each other, suspicious of each other,
Issuing challenges to each other, and
occasionally exchanging epithets,
might well pause to consider how de-
pendent each is upon the other, and
shown by this adversely which holds
both of them in its grip. II in the
| light of this experience they could
perceive their genuine community of
interest, if they could truly realize
~, : AZ a e,lx,ot;o,, ~ 10Th I;asr;y, m.
operation, then this industrial depres-
sion, costly as it is, would be worth
the price.
| Instead of being drawn up in fight
ing formation labor and capital today
should be sitting at a conference table
discussing the causes of the stagna-
ton and devising plans for relief. The
discussion of the cause would lead
them straight to Washington. 1t is
now almost three years since the most
destructive war in history was ended,
leaving half the world in rags and
hunger and imposing upon the states
manship of the United States the big
gest task of altruisn and enlightened
selfishness which statesmen ever fac
ed. Those tasks have not been met.
They have been miserably shirked,
Instead of craftsmanship, rising splen-
didy to meet crisis we have seen
politicians gambling coldly for party
advantage regardless Of the needs OF
humanity.
With practically all of Europe in
dire want and with the United States
in a position to supply those wants,
the country today should be at the
peak of activity and prosperity, with
every ounce of labor and every penny
OF capital employed at maximum pro
ductiveness and remuneration. That
was what reconstruction meant and
that is what reconstruction would
have accomplished, but we have hae
no reconstruction.
We are getting no reconstruction
today. The very least that the pres
ent Congress might have done would
be to abolish the extravagances Of wal
conditions and install the economics
SO fervently promised. Instead o
economies, expenditures continue il
ruinous excess Of prospective revenue
and beyond the nations capacity te
pay. TO the moral and intellectua
tfncapacity at Washington must bt
charged the indefensible depression
that has palsied American labor ant
capital.

STEAMER cAILO HAS
UNlUCkY TRIP TODAY
Deck Hand Is Drowned. Engineer Sui.
fers Broken Arm and Steamer Has
Hard Time Making Trip.

The trip up the Ohio Friday morn
ing OF the Green line steamer Chic
was certainly the most unlucky trip
that steamer has ever yet taken.
When landing near Augusta at
about daylight Friday morning deck
hand, thought to be about half asleep,
slipped from the front deck into the
river and was run over by the steam
er. An effort was made for an hour by
members of the crew to recover the
body Of the colored man who no one
seemed to know by his right name but
the body was not recovered.
Shortly after leaving Augusta the
steamers pumps were not working
properly and the engineer, while
working on the machinery, suffered a
broken arm. From Ripley to Mays
vile the boat was not running prop
erly and members Of the crew were
completely worn out upon the arrival
of the boat here.

farm WORK IS
IN GOOD SHAPE
IN KENTUCKY
Federal Weather Bureau Issues Crop
Summary In Which Crops
Are Reported Good.

Louisville, July /. - The weather
bureal today issued the following sum
mary and crop conditions in Kentucky
during the week ending June 2S:
Good rains occurred during the
week In the North central counties, in
cluding most Of the Bluegrass region;
and light local showers elsewhere. A
large area in the central part Of the
state received little or no rain. Drouth
is becoming serious In many locali-
ties the condition as to moisture be-
ing decidedly spotted in the central
and Western counties.
Except in the driest localities, corn
Is in satisfactory condition and is
growing rapidly. Its growth has been
stimulated greatly by the persistent
high temperature which has adversely
affected other crops. Meadows are ma
turing prematurely although some i'm
provement from local rains is noted.
Hay harvest has begun with the
weather favorable and yields light.
Oats are filling better on account or
showers, but straw is short.
"A full crop of tobacco could not be
set in the dark district on account OF
dry soil. Transplanting Of hurley was
generally completed during the week.
which is unusually late for this crop.
In most Of the state the weather was
favorable for threshing, which made
good progress; but yields are general
ly less than expected. This is believed
to be due to the long period OF dry
weather preceding harvest that pre-
vented many heads from filling COM
pletely.
Some young clover has died in the
driest districts and only favored local
tiles report it in good condition. Pas
lures are short and badly dried in
some sections.
Farm work is in good shape and
CROPS are clean and well cultivated

Those who made their escape, their

Charles Brown, Of Ashland, sentenc-
ed to two years in the Federal prison
at Atlanta for breaking into an inter
state shipment, 80 or 35 years old,
red hair. blue eyes about six feet tall

The escape, according to fellow
prisoners, was effected between $3.50
and o'clock from the cell on the first
floor in the rear Of the Jail.
Mitchell, who was confined in a cell
by himself, sawed a bar from his cell
and climbed out into the corridor. He
then turned crank that opens all OF
the other cell doors.
Mitchell's cell was on the West side
of the Jail and the window through
which the men escaped is located on
the east side. After opening the cell
doors, Mitchell Is said to have asked
the others if they wanted to make
their getaway.
Four responded, but eight declined
the invitation, preferring to remain
until their sentences have been served
they said. All we're awakened by the
noise Of the saving.
Jailer Reuben Cropper said that ac.
cording to information he had Just re-
ceived, someone gave Mitchell a saw
on the day he was taken to the court
house to have sentence passed on hin
by Federal Judge A. M. ]. Cochran

President Harding Names Hon. VIM
H. Taft Chief Justice Of Su.
preme Court Of United
States,

Washington, July 1. Former Pres
ident William Howard Taft was nom
inted late Thursday by President
Harding to be Chief Justice Of the
United States, and his nomination was
confirmed by the Senate in executive
session.
The nomination was not confirmed
without opposition, however, and a
roll-call was demanded. The opposi-
tion was understood to have been
voiced by Senators Borah, Idaho;
Johnson, California, and LaFollette,
Wisconsin, all Republicans. who were
said to have criticized Mr., Taft's rec
ord and his nomination.
On the roll-call, however, only four
votes were cast against confirmation.
These were by Senators Borah, John
son, and LaFollette, and Senator Wat
son, Democrat, Georgia.
The final vote was 60 to 4. An agree
ment was reached not to make pub
lie the roll-call.
Mr.. Taft will succeed the late Ed
ward Douglass White, whom he ap-
pointed to the Office in 1910.
1t was indicated that President
Harding had acted so far in advance
Of the winter term Of the court be-
cause he felt that the new Chief JUS
tice should have ample time to reor-
ganize the courts business before the
reconvening October 1.
Mr.. Harding is understood to have
been advised by legal officers Of the
administration that all the Federal
Courts were so congested with bust
ness that prompt action during sum-
mer recess was necessary in order to
expedite litigation as much as pos
sible.
The former President is now in
Montreal aiding in a railway arbitra,
ton for the Canadian Government and
Is expected to return to the United
States soon to familiarize himself with
the work Of the court.

DATE CHANGED.

Word has been received from the

22nd. The new date seems to NEE,

interest taken by that school as well
as practically every school in the
county the coming convention should
