If not in exact words, Ik a defend of murder by Un? ion Labor on the ground that when Union I^aWor strikes it i? em-gaged in warfare and must defend itseflf against non-union men. or strikebreakers, jnst as 11 nation defends itself against trai tors. This accursed doctrine has some times l>eon proclaimed by radical l'n ion Labor leaders, but never l?eforo we believe have we seen it so clearly and emphatically stated in print. It is a fact that strikers are at war. They are at war against society and humanity, and it Is they who are the traitors, for they are seeking to de stroy lilKMty. According to their view Union Latnir is superior to all laws. It Is under no obligation to recognize hum an or divine laws for fhe protec tion of other men or property. It i< a law unto itself. It claims the right, according to thjs view, to commit any erfine which may be necessary to de stroy men who are at work aeainst ? the dictates of Union I>abor. T'nlon j Iwihor is thus the greatest prorpngator of class consciousness and strif.- in existence. No wonder wo had the Ilerrin mas sacre In Illinois; no wonder that rail road strikers hero and there are be ginning to ignore tl?e law and seeking to destroy men who want to woHc. We are face tf face squarely with the question a? to whether Union Ijn t>or is u law unto itself, a government superior Jo our Fe<leral Oovernment and whether its menil>ers unde.r the direction of radical loaders have the right to destroy property and life and t?> prevent men from working merely because they are not staini>od b??dy and j soul with a Union eard. For many years the Manufacturers J Record has been -warning the ebuntry ^ against the danger of the growth of thN spirit of unionism under radical ? lahor loaders who have been preach- J ing revolution. for they h;i \ .? openly ailvooated t h?? destruction <<f laws of liberty that interfere with unionism. The editorial from the .WiviiV Advo cate is merely an indication of the danger we are facing. and r must be realized that the Advocate is not s?|H"akInir for alien, illiterate liNor. but I ;t is sjieaking in l>ehulf of laboring I men in a section where fori?j_?v,.rs are ?ear?vly known. It i- had enough to I. :i \ < ? face! the e\ iIs of foreign 1 ;i 1 >?? r >r ionism, | '?lit it i< still greater menace to our i oniitrv when wo find that :aon of American birth, of Anglo Saxon blood, ?tt|(lN)?ed to be T11?'!i of fu r !:;'?

It is theJr surplus weevils that'are ad | '.ling difficulties to the situation of the man who has made a good fight. Some of these discouraged men hnve misled and have employed moth* ? l< that had Uttle or no virtue. Scores of such methods were long ago found ! worthless but when farmers fail to j heed the advieo of agricultural loaders ;?nd turn a willing ear to every man who comes along, they fall into the same mistakes that farmers made years ago. A South Carolina farmer wants to ['know what can be done when it rains | incessantly. Nothing. The Cotton that eould be grown under those con ditions wouldn't bo worth while even if there were no weevils. Hut if the weather is not so bad as that, there Is a fighting chance." Of course wot weather favors weevil damage. It therefore "follows that when it is cloudy and raining every day or two that a harder fight must !>c put Up. * . Some who have boon applying cal eium arsenate dust have found it dif ficult to avoid the rains and keep the ixdson on the cotton for a 24-hour jx'rlod. This is, of course, in the trame and every one should make the host he ran of the situation. Get in the poisons, if not ercry four or five days apart, ^hen at the first opportu nity. Wrtuld you pick up squares when using i*>i?on dust, if the rains are threatening and the' period of dusting Is delayed? Wo would. We were in n' cotton field n few days ago where calcium arsenate had been applied ,'U) hours previously. We looked for live wee vils hut could not find a single one. The poison had done a thorough job. Hut we found plenty of punctured squares ou the ground that would he soon hatching out more weevils. The farmer had plenty of labor. Would we gather these squares? We would. It was plainly evident that with the number of unhatched wee vils iu his field, plus the number that I his neighbors would supply, that ho ran (ho risk of losing more cotton to I ho weevils before the next applica tion of poison than the eo(st of pick ing squares would amount to.

Nobody knows Avhat Jaek might have said in horse talk to his mate hut, anyway, he took the bit in hi* teeth aud bolted, dragging his team mate with him and heading fur tbe nearest engine house. Jaek knew right where it was, too, ulthough he never hail worked iu that part of the city before: He gallop*! full tilt right Juto the brick wall, head-on and crumpled down in a heap. The tshooked aUj grieved firemen recogdlzed the ohl hero by the brand marks on his hoofs and fc'ave him the coUp de grace to end his struggles. Neatness Is an Asset. >. The importance of neat abearance to self-respect is generally accepted, but owe in a while practical applica tion of the theory is made. A plan Is ou?foot in Now Yo^k^cJtS- tci establish stations at various' indicated ipoinflP** where a man can secure without cost Hie simpler means for making himself presentable. It is intended to,provide eaeh of these stations with shower baths, soap and towels, conveniences for shaving and for shining shoes. There will be . whisk brooms, and possibly the means for pressing tumbled clothing. Nothing conduces more to self-re sj)cct or does more to secure the re spectful attention of others than the appearance of respectability. Many a man has turned tramp and become a social liabilfy who might have been turned the other way had there been, at some crisis of his life, the means at hand to make himself look like the respectable citizen he had the nrge to be. While the necessity for work of this kind on an extensive acale is confined mostly to big cities, the principles of it can l>e reineoribered to advantage wherever welfare work is in hand. What is more, the truths which under lie it are vital in the home and the training of children. Many a little girl is rough, ill-mnnnered and wild because those who are responsible for It makes no difference how children look. Many a boy has gone to seed because his parents imagine t\*at it .makes no difference if a grow ing boy looks seedy.?<3reenville New?.
