A rather belated discussion lias arisen over action of the manufac turers in the State in turning down a request by the University survey ing bureau of an undertaking in that direction of the textile business of the state. The Observer lias heard no ex pression from the manufacturers as to the reasons in rejection, but it has nn idea, from its knowledge of past experiences with the statistical agents in operation in tile state. Eight or | ten years ago the North Carolina tex tile field was singled out by an or ganization whose headquarters was at II ashingtou, for particular harass ment. Spies were sent into the state in batches, and riiese spies, instead of asking permission of the mill own ers to inspect working and living con ditions, would sneak about the prem ises anil make up reports suited to their purposes. There was a case in which one spy took a night picture of the High Shoals Mill, and used it at Washington us evidence of the oppres sion that mill exerted over its opera tives, the supposition being left on rile minds of the public that child labor was enforced in the night work at that particular mill, and conse quently, in all other mills in the state. The owner of the mill sent an invi tation to the maker of the night pic ture and relator of the story concern ing the mill, to eome to the office and he would be shown through the mill and the homes of the operatives and Riven all information he might want, first hand. But he pcrsistenly re fused the invitation, preferring to let his “colored'’ report stand as it was. Tins was but one of many incidents Os the kind that worried the mill men | In those days and that have been of, repetition since then. Perhaps it might be argued that this is good reason why the mill men should have welcomed the agencies' of the University in giving a correct survey of mill condition*, and a good argument it "would be, it is to be confessed. Nevertheless, past expe rience with ttie survey people haß left the mill men yet sore, and that may. be one explanation wfly the University) offer was rejected. THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE GIRL WIFE CONFRONTED BY HER TWO HUSBANDS She Wants Divorce From Number One So That She May Live With the Other. Hickory, Dee . 28. 20-year-old wife of two men sat in police court this morning anil wept as both of htq; living husbands told of their mar riage to her and the difficulties it brought. Her latest husband. Edgar Beach, JO. is being held in jail pend ing an investigation while her first husband. Henry Whitesides, of Gas ton county, is starting action for di vorce in Catawba county superior court. Both husbands knew of the '•ther at the time of the second mar riage. The girl's name was Jane Carver, of Highland, suburb of Hickory, and at the age of 14 she was married to Whitesides. He got in some trouble shortly after the marriage and was sent to the chain gang. During his stay on the roads or shortly after his release, his wife was “married” to Edgar Beach. Action was brought in municipal court this morning by Whitesides, tlie first husband, and the evidence re vealed that Beach, the second hus band. who is the father of a two-year old baby of the girl, has been in the habit of mistreating her. Judge M. H. Young rebuked the man and is holding hint! in, jail until an investi gation can be made. The girl said she did not love Whitesides but she does love Beach. She wants to help Whitesides get his divorce and then live with her second husbaud, she said. Judge Yount said Aft was the most pathetic case ever to come before his court. “The girl has been the victim of riie two men ami she hns been bad ly handled,” he said. A Professor Says It. Dearborn Weekly. Infinite satisfaction is reflected when any competent person gets something ‘‘off his chest.” One feels that the quiffTessenee of experience, emotion and wisdom is then being ex pressed. When Colonel Mitchell says that he thinks about bis sujieriors, when Wilson said w'iiat lie thought of Bryan—indeed, when any persona! truth squeezes through the joints in our protective armor of make-believe, it is refreshing, even if not perma nently uplifting. Just see how ft works. Dr. J. B. Finley, upon surrender" of his professorship at the Cniversity of California to become dean of the University ,of Mexico, left these part ing thrusts for American colleges: “Our national probably willl be saved, for a few years at least, by the young men who cannot go to a college or a university. ... A master of ar’s or a doctor of philosophy is now a boy whose parents have enough money to keep him in college until the professors are tired of looking at him.” That was certainly a stinger, as the boys say. It is as frank an opinion of the student ns some stu dents’ opinions of the professors have been. And to a certain extent it is true, but not wholly. True enough, howeveq, to give a taste of salt. May be the day will eome when men of mind may be as Htrong to forego col lege as pink teas, golf or dandyism. Four large volumes were required to contain the will of a woman who died recently in London. Altogether, the document comprised nearly 100,- 000 words, more than there are in many novels.
