There is no proper punishment for \ the Wisconsin farmer who hitched four of his children to a plow and made them to do the woik of a horse. This man belongs to a special class of criminals. Yet his case cannot be treated with necessary severity. To send him to jail for his cruelty would impose an even greater punishment upon his family. The court authori? ties of thfc county have compromised by compelling the man to send his children to school and to pledge him? self never again to hitch the young? sters to do the work of animals. Over in the European countries we? men and children are oi *n tc be seen doing duty as beasts of burden, and occasionally some of th?> immigrants have mistakenly thought they could pursue the sam? metaciti on coming "here. Tl.* pub'.ij sj.fn?OD is strongly ! set against tVi form of l?r*:ta*?ty ana will ne~er condone sunh offenses what? ever the circumstances. If a man is too poor to own a horse he ought him? self to hear- the br'int of the ha? i labor necessary to break up the soil. This Wisconsin farmer might easily have done alone as much as the four children he harnessed to the plow. The demand of the day is for the education of the children, and every child that is kept in harness, wheth? er on the farm in actual straps and task, is being defrauded of that which belongs to it by right. Child labor of any sort which interferes with the full moral and mental development of the individual io vicious and demor? alizing not only to the child but to a\ large circle in each community. A child kept out of school in order to toil at some pittance-earing work is a less to the social organization. It can? not become a productive member or hope to rise above a certain low level. The case of the Wisconsin farmer should serve to stimulate congress to the early passage of a bill which reg? ulates child labor in the district. There are many youngsters hitched to the plows right here in the capital of the United States.-Washington Star. CASTOR I A JOT Infants and Children.

Harrisburg, Pa., June 6.-The prin? cipal features of the Republican plat? form read at the state convention to? day were: Endorsement of the administration ri President Roosevelt, giving full credit to the managers of the great industrial enterprises for their splendid achievements, but condemning those who have misused their powers by un? fair methods of competition, publicity of corporate affairs, approves railroad i rate bill, commends legislation pend? ing in congress providing for the rigid examination of meat products, de? clares devotion to Republican doctrine of protection of American industries, urges farther amendment of immigra? tion laws, so that undesirable foreign element may be excluded from Amer? ican citizenship, and acknowledges debt of gratitude to sailors and soldiers who fought in the war of country and commends pensions granted them.

Sold by all drug? gists, The Farm for Boys. A prominent Georgia citizen, in a speech delivered to a body cf traveling men of the State, directed attention to the prosperity of the people of Geor? gia, and emphasized the fact that '"the farmer is more independent than a ki::?." He said: "The boys of the farmers are content to remain at home and learn to till the soil. They have quit rushing off to the towns in search of clerical positions. They are staying at home helping to develop the greatest country on earth." This is indeed an encouraging report from Georgia. Commenting upon what has been quoted above, the Savannah Press says: "The farmers' boys who are far wiser than those who are hunting easy jobs ir. the town. With cotton bring? ing ll cents a pound there is more money to be had in the country than in the cities. All of the young farm? ers who are at all thrifty are becom? ing financially independent. If the presen-: good times continue they will be classed as rich men in their re? spective communities by the time they are 40 years of age." This condition of the farmer's boy is not confined to any one State, but prevails all over the south. The boy who leaves the farm nowadays for work Li the city should consider well before changing his environments. The paper already quoted inquires about the boys who have already gone to the cities, asking this question: "And how has it J'ared with the boys who have Fought jobs in the cities?" This answer is given: ( "Now and then one of exceptional ability has made a success . The vast majority, however, are no better off than w.ien they left their homes on the farms. They are still earning small salaries and find it difficult to meet all the demands on their purses. And the future doesn't hold out a promise of prosperity. If they have married they are having a hard struggle for the necessaries of life. Doubtless the most ol them have wished a thousand times they had stayed on the farm. Indeed, it is not uncommon to hear young men in this city who left the farm a dozen or half a dozen years ago say that if cotton continues to com? mand tie present price they will go back to the country and to farming. "It is a difficult matter to get a foot? hold in the cities. Opportunities for advancement are few and far between. A boy leaving the farm for a clerical position, or, in fact, any other posi? tion in the city, thinks at first that he has mace a change for the better. He believes he will not have to work so hard an I that the road to fortune is easier. In a very few months he changes his opinion. The worry and annoyances he has to endure and the difficulty of earning sufficient to enable him to secure a social position to which he feels he is entitled make him realize that he left contentment and independence behind him when he left the farm." This is a subject which interests hundred?, even thousands, of young men. The times have undergone a great, change. The farm is not the uninviting, unattractive field for am? bitious, thrifty young men that it was ten. or even five years ago. Stimulation Without Irritation. ?In case of stomach and liver trouble the proper treatment is to stimulate these organs without irritating them.

I SHORTER HOURS IX MILLS. 3Iill Presidents, Representing More Than Two-Thirds of the Spindles in This State, Resolve to Shorten Hours Gradually to Ten Hours a Day. Greenville, S. C., June 5.-A confer? ence most important in its bearings on the industrial progress of South Carolina was held today in Greenville at the room of the board of trade. There were present 73 cotton mill presidents. representing 2.335.000 spindles in operation in South Caro? lina, or more than two-thirds of the spindles of the state. J. A. Brock, of Anderson, was made chairman, and J. L "Westervelt, of Greenville, secretary. Capt. E. A. Smyth, ot Greenville, introduced a series of resolutions, which were re? ferred to a committee, consisting of Capt. E. A. Smyth, chairman, Messrs. L. W. Parker, of Greenville; V. L Montgomery, of Spartanburg; Thomas Barrett Jr., of Augusta, Ga., who is president of the Langley mill in South Carolina, and Z. T. Wright, of New? berry. The conference then adjourned for an hour, while a collation was served by the mill'officials of Green? ville and theil* lady friends. At the second session of the confer? ence this resolution was offered by the committee and unanimously adopted, and the committee was appointed: That' a permanent organization be effected, and a committee to nominate officers be appointed for that purpose to report at a meeting to be held on June 28, at some point to be decided upon later. The following important resolutions were also adopted without opposition: Resolved, That it is the sense of this conference that the running time of the cotton mills in South Carolina be voluntarily reduced by the mill man? agers on July 1, 1906, to 64 hours per week, and on July 1, 1910, to 60 hours per week. The mill managers recog? nize that for many reasons it is best both for the employes and the corpo? ration that this reduction to 60 hours should be gradual and extended over a period of years. Resolved, That this conference urge upon ali the cotton manufacturers in South Carolina to continue to carefully observe the age law limiting the em? ployment of children to those of 12 years of age and older, and forbidding the employment, except under lawful conditions, of children under 12 years of age. - Resolved, That the conference of mill manufacturers earnestly approve the passage of the compulsory school J law in South Carolina to apply to all children under twelve years of age, and also recommend the enactment of a law requiring the registration of all births in South Carolina, and also a law requiring marriage certificate be? fore any ceremony can be performed in South Carolina. Resolved, That the chapman of this conference appoint a committee of seven, who shall prepare a circular letter to be printed and placed on the (?esk of each senator and memher of the house of representatives of the South Carolina legislature, urging upo:, them the enactment of these laws. Relived, That it is the judgment of this meeting that there should be no change made in the wages of the era poyes at this time consequent upon the change of hours so passed. Enabling thereby such operatives as work by the day to secure the same amount of wages for the shortened day as they would have secured for a longer day, it being the belief of the manufacturers here assembled that piece workers will be able to secure, through increased energy consequent upon the shortened hours of labor, the same amount of wages during the shorter time that they have previous? ly earned. The name of the organ? ization is the Cotton Manufacturers' Association of South Carolina. A Thousand Dollars' Worth of Good. *"I have been afflicted with kidney and bladder trouble for years, passing graver or stones with excruciating pain," says A. H. Thurnes, a well known coal operator of Buffalo, O. "I got no relief from medicine until I be? gan taking Foley's Kidney Cure, then ? the result was surprising. A fe;v doses started the brick-dust-like substance and now I have no pain across my kid? neys and I feel like a new man. It has done me $1,000 wort!; t.f good."
