At this morning's meeting Mr. Dan Kerr's proposition to reduce the water rents of manufacturing plants to »l per horsepower was brought up.

The meetings held at different places yes terday v.ere presided over by cool headed men, and no doubt they have had a temporizing effect.

In nn Interview thin morning, that the one fact he wlsh ;*d to bring out was that this Is not an . organised strike Indeed, he does not j regard It as a strike at all It I* mere ly a walkout, many operative* having been forced to quit work In one de partment because operative* in other department* walked out. I Mr. Mulcay gives tt as hi* opinion .•hat If the mills would open up the j present *jtrlt»ment would subside, and I the operatives would all return to I work. There are six organisations of the I Textile Workers, aggregating between ; 490 and Sat) memheis, and he states that | the percentage of organised men who walked out 'rs very small A Meeting Last Afternoon. The meeting lifst afternoon was at tended by two or three thousand people and several addresses were made,which ; are given in full below. The article printed in The Her- 1 aid yesterday was read at the meeting, and haa been the talk of the dry. A j great many are of the opinion that thla is the real solution of the problem. | At the meeting this afternoon, after ! the committee reports, if It is favora ! hie, the operatives will return to work I In tbe morning. Mr. Marion Ivoy called the meeting 1 to order and said: ! "This Is quite a large audience— about the largest I have ever had the pleasure of addressing. We have met here this afternoon for the purpose of hearing something about the Labor I'naon—l suppose that Is what you are all here for—and we have some prom inent men who will speak on this line and explain matters to you. We hope to have your quiet attention. Let me beg all of you peonle to let us keep : sober and quiet, and do nobody harm, hut let us stand together and not raise any dispute among ourselves, for that would please the men who are oppos ing us mofe than anything in the world!. •"When I led the crowd out of the Sibley mills this morning, I stated that I wovAd not go back for cut wages.

While I could go on and make a great many statements upon this Issue, I think l have pretty well covered the Arid In some newspaper ar ticles which I have written. The labor question affects the whole world. In cam- this reduction In wages goes Inlo effect In the South. It means a further reduction in wages In the North —in other word*, the unorganised con dition of Southern lal orlng people has been the club by which th?y have hammered do • n our wages In the North. You see the Northern people ran only stand together and secure not only better wages, but less hours of labor. That 1* what we want. Here in the South, the labor question is one of greater Knoment than In the section from which t came, 'You have another ouestlon down' j lrre _th<. negro element. I am not op posed to the negro, but you people have to send your children to the mills th wo k to. help supi’ort the family : ifnd whilg they are going to the cotton riMMs | and laboring for bread, the negro is j educating his children. It Is time we pul a stop to that. I say let us edu cate our children. They have „ f«y*r of negro supremacy in the South. Hdjiea tion rules this country and rules the governments of the world. If you edu cate the negroes and raise the white children in Ignorance, who Is going to rule in the South ? ‘ While I am not attaching the mill presidents, I do not thtnk they have acted right for this reason: They Ray they had to reduce wages 111 Augusta because the mills In South Carolina were selling goods for less than they could. Whether this is true or not. I cannot state, but people In South Car olina can live cheaper than you ran in Augusta. It Is not a question of what the mills in South Carolina arc mak ing or what they ate not making: it is a question of right. So long as the mills r.f our city can pay dividends and ..lake money and sell their products, they are not justifiable In reducing wa ins. And if they did have to reduce; them, they should have commenced at the top and have ''Deduced the. officials before they made any reduction In the wage*, of ih« poor laboring men. liut l nave tuk .-n up too tpweh of j your time- We will now hear fr*m Mayor 'Walsh.

Tent flaps thrown j open, they view through the spreading pines the moonlight falling on Geor- j gia soli. It is a good thing that so many from the North have this opportunity of meeting the people of the South and It is hoped that the better element of the visiting troops may carry hack to Pennsylvania, Ohio and other grand states of the union the fondest recol lections ami mdst pleasant memories of this winter which Is to be spent within the borders of historic Georgia and amrng the accomplished citizens of Augusta. It is a pleasant thing to have a chance to leave the cold winds of the North out of our lives for a season and enjoy the delightful climate of this state of the South. Everyone in camp should endeavor to make this home In the field a pleas ant and a respectable one for visitors. May the time speedily eome when the tented ciiy may be tilled with respec table civilians as il has been In other tamps during the campaign. It has been an annoyance to many a soldier to read from time to time In the Auguslo papers articles denounc ing (he conduct of the soldiers visiting the city.
