H |?|g ] | | mm IIICIIITIDV unoflniiJiM IK MILLS (By Clyde H. Tavenner.) Special to th? Dally Nawi. WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.?In the city of Larence, Maae., where the 99, 98 and 94 a week, and fathers highly protected woolen mills hold forth; where boya and girls work for and mothers work long hours for 98, 99 and 97 a week for full time. 47 out of every 140 deaths are those of chHdren under 5 years of age! And of these 47 children, 98 are under 1 year of age! The doctors declare the big majority of these children perish because their mothers labor such long hours, under unsanitary conditions, In the woolen mills. But mark the percentage of child deaths In Lawrence, particularly: Forty-seven out of every 100 persons that die in Lawrence are children under 6 years of age. Now compare thia with Seattle, Wash. There, out of every 100 persons who die, but 19 are children under 5 years of age. The average for the whole country Is 27 children under 5 years of age, Instead of 47 as in Lawrence, and for the whole country 19 out of every 100 deaths are of children under 1 year of age, instead of 35 as in Lawrence. In Fall River, Mass.. where the woolen trust also operates, 50 out of| every 100 persona that die, are children under 5 years. At New Bedford, Mass., another woolen mill town, 49 out of every 100 pereons that die, are under 5 years, and the great majority of the 49 are babes! These people who work in the woolen mills are "protected."' That Is, the multi-millionaire woolen trust magnates who come to Washington for exceslve protection, say thai the sole reason they desire tariff rates which give them a monopoly on American markets and permit them to charge double the value for woolen clothing, in that hey are "protecting" their employees. In addition to making this plea, the trust magnates, of course, make liberal contributions of money to the campaign funds of the party of protection. The result is such bills as Schedule K of the Payne-Aldrich law. Here is a plain question for the American people to ask themselves: Why should they longer permit a comparative handful of millionaires to force them to pay exorbitant prices for every article of woolen clothing they wear, on the pretext of these rich men that they are "protecting" their employees, when these employees are not only not befcig protected, but are being paid such low wages that they are parctica'Iy compeled to live like cattlef MRS. W. U VAUGHAN ILJ>. The numerous friends of Mrs. W. L. Vaughan, who is now at the Washington Hospital for treatment, will be pleased to learn that her condition is no me batter today am* salens something unforseea happens she will be able to retnra te her home wtthla the mqxt few days. 0 'M I ri v# Hi ilOii Campaign as aW Lukewarm Char Primary on Tue DETROIT, Mick., Aug. U ?The campaign preceding the Michigan primaries closed today with many political rallies in all parte of the State. On Tuesday next all parties are to engage in State-wide primaries for the selection of candidates for governor and lieutenant-governor, one United States senator, representatives la Congress, members of the legislature and cltr *nd county officers. The selection of candidates for State offlcnsr, excepting governor and lieutenant-governor. will be made In State conventions to be held later,. The campaign, on the whole, has! been of rather a luke-warm variety. The Republicans. who have beld almost undisputed control of the State for yeara. lost much of their ginger in the hitter factional fight between I the Taft and Roosevelt adherents I last'spring. The fight left the party land its leaders more or less bewildered. Governor Chase M. Osborn, one of the early and ardent Roosevelt supporters, has apparently been left to flock by himself. Many others who in the past have been numbered among the Republican leaders of Michigan have taken no part in the present campaign. The Democrats have found some encouragement in the factional strife of the enemy and are displaying more activity than in former years. But thfl 111.- - -?.* Republicans, are bothered over the appearance of the third party In the field. The National Progressives will have a place on the primary ballot and will make nominations for all of the important places to he filled at the November election. The Republican candidates tot the ML! SERVICE IT PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH j On account of the absence of the pastor. Rev. H. B.

La Follette, United States Senator from Wisconsin, foremoet Republican progresisve in the upper I House of Congress, is against Theodore Roosevelt for a third term, because, be says. Roosevelt, while president, co-operated with the trusts, instead of co-operating with him In his fight against the trusts. "On the day that Theodore Roose iveic was made president," declares! La Follette. "there were 149 trusts] land combinations in the United States. Wihen he turned the government over to Taft there were 10,020 trusts. "When Roosevelt entered the White House the trustB and combi-' nations were capitalized at 13,784,000,000. On the day that he turned the administration over to Taft this capitalization had grown to $31,672,000,000, more than 70 per cent, of which was water. "1 do not believe that the man who was president for more than seven years, while the greatest trust growth in the history of the country took place at the very time of all times in the history of the Sherman law when enforcement of that law would have destroyed trust organization. I do not believe that the man who was president during that time is the man to find the way out now.'' SALT WATER MELONS. Mr. Charles M. Willis, the baker, returned this morning from Morehead City with a cargo of salt water melons, which he is now sending to all parts of the city. The melons are some of the finest seen here this season. Mr. Willis naa about stmteen hundred on hand. The melons were ipmllod from the vines only yester V *r' ?-! N?. 381.
