Bill Arp oa the Conflict Between
the Laborer and the Capitalist.
Atlanta Constitution:
Labor and Capital. When will the
lorfg protracted struggle cease. Away
back in history there was a war that
lasted thirty yeirs, bpt this war litis
lasted longer than that and seems to
grow more bitter as the years roll on.
In llie good old times it did not affect
the South, but like a pestilence it
spreads and there seems to be no
remedy. All of the women—most all
of the men, outside of the capitalists—
hare heretofore sympathized with the
toilers in their demands for le s work
pnd better pay. They have bitterly
denounced the heartless managers who
would wear out the life of a child be-
foie it gets grown—who would keep
them .caged in factories from early
morn till lamplight, with not an hour
for recreation. No May day, no play-
day. no ball game, uor marbles, nor
fishing, nor frolic of any kind for the
boys; no hunting wild flowers of black
berries for l he girts, n& youthful pleat. :
ures, no recess, no Saturday; but fiom
year to year itJs
“ Work—work—work, in the dull Decem
ber light. •»
And work—work—work, when the weather
ie warm and bright.'*
' lf6w sad it is to see them toil as if
in a Irejulmilh and to hear lliem sigh
as they glance from th*- window-, of
their daily prison, ami with longing
eyes, whisper
-“Uhl hut to iirealhe the breath of tbc
woodewnd llowcre sseet,
• With the »ky aUwe my Itcad *ud the gras*
„ l«oea h my feet
> w,. _ ' . r , W , ^ f.i"
And this is sad, path* tic, and hut
for heartless legislation and legislator^,
would have long since l»eeii remedied.
H is the good sbie rd human w
that arouses sympathy
ami Leigh Hunt never wrote
err- a skilled man sent free to show
them how to plant and grow dowers, a
free library of well -selected books,
hospitals for the- sick, good nurses,
good beds, all free and no lost time
charged against them; bath rooms with
hot and cold water and time given to
bathe; clean towels and soap. For
the women and girls he had toilet
rooms and bathrooms and brushes and
combs and even curling tongs provid
ed; sofas and cots to recline on and
books to read. Everything was made
as much like home as a loving mother
would .have provided; Half-of every
Saturday was theirs. Mr. Patterson
was happy. He believed he had solved
the problem of capital and tabor. Hut
about three years ago a labor union
was" formed and ils committee began
to hum up’devilment. Not long ago
-they discovered that ihe 2,000 towel*
that weie furnished the bathrooms
free were washed every week by some
poor woman who did not belong to the
ion, and tlrcy demanded of Mi. I’.ii
tersou that he have his washing d in-
by union folk*. He refused ami the
committee ordered a strike.' Then he
declareil that hi* men were not charged
for the l/aths nor the towels nor the
soap, and he would stop the whole

Indian trails followed the natural
wealth of the country. The Indians
selected those places foe-building their
villages most favored by nature. They
sought pure water to drink, good
streams to tish in and good forests to
hunt rn. The best hunting ground
was always where vegetation^wks most
luxuriant, for wild animals fed on nuts,
fruits, cane and grass.
It is curious to look back a hundred
years and see how civilization has
marched in the footprints of savagery.
First came the Indians, single tile,
silently marching one behind the other.
Then came the trailers, with their pack
horses, following the paths of the In
dians and selling them rum and peltry
for skins and furs. Then came the white
settlers^ with their families. When
the settlers came the paths or trails
were widened to admit wheels. Then
came the stage coach. Then the steam
engine, plunging, plowing and hurst-
iuu wide open the hidden treasures of
stream and forest. It is a fact that the
railroads are built, for the most pari,
along Uie Hues of the old stage route*,
so that in lookibg backward we aim
that the Indian* sui veyed many of the
lines now covered by sft-tl mils, tele,

The Journey to Buffalo and Ex
periences on the Train.
Mrs. Kate Wigfall Cheatham, of the
Edgefield Chronicle, writes an interest,
ing letter on her arrival at Buffalo,
where she was in attendance upon the
National Editorial Association, and H
viewing the sights of the Pan-Ameri
can Exposition:
SATLEh’a Hotel, BrFFALO,
N.'Y., June 10th,
8 o’clock in the morning.
Dear Chronicle: W’e arrived in
Buffalo two hours ago on a night train
from New York. The railroads seem
to understand the economy of time,
for they bring the visitors through the
darkness, and rush the specials into
the great Exposition City just as the
million little shops and meaUmarkets
in the endless suburbs are letting down
their stnjied awnings and sweeping off
the front steps.*
At the particular station where we
stopped there waited thousands of
hungry hotel ruuuera and hundreds of
canopied wagons •When the first
train wound around the curve below
and the last car was slow in showing
itself, the policeman said; *• She’s
heavy this morning.” And she was
indeed heavy! As the baggage car
• raw led by, one tumid see that the tfag-
gage iua*ler had barely enough room
for his chair. The place was |mi-ked
celling high with Saratoga*, hair-
rUitli*. rarpet-sark* and boxes, cacti
with a bra*
ship made of bnck—meet ’em at our
State building,” and so on.
This goes on after you have strug
gled into your berth. A nervous, noisy
woman puts her head through the cur
tain for a second time and asks the
porter if he is certain about the time
they get in. Then'in the morning.
At Syracuse a man arises, and begins
to inquire about distances. Other peo
ple awakened by the light are buzzing
behind the mufiled hangings, and say-
brother leaps gladly out
above me, and exclaims in his peculiar
parlance: “Nobody but Clod will ever
know what a horrible night I have
had.” * So they tumble out one after
the other and begin to raise windows.
IN SIGHT OF THE FAIR..
The Buffalo passenger baring seen
the Fair on a photograph pa*s until it
seems like home, docs not j'nii in the
fever of expectancy. He gels out of
his berth < nly when the porter has
reached n. at him for the third time.
At Kenvon, ha f the passengers put
their heads out of (he windows and
U ok ahead.' One man sigbi* the Fer
ris wheel after a time, and there t* n
commotion on his side of the car 'The
other evens up by lyghung the iidmtn-
Ul ration dome. Then th-y begin b.
pick out buildings. In this general
excitement the. porter has some trou
ble in hokliug bis man out in Uie aisle
until lie can brush him and collect a
