Tile question of county bonds is
one that concerns each tax payer in
our county, then why is it that they
have had no chance to express their

The wages of Southern mill bands
will be cut. The price of the farm¬
ers’ products has already been cut.
Depreciation of everything produced
in the South will continue.
But the South is not alone in this
fix. The wages of Northern mill
operatives were cut a year ago.
Wages of other skilled laborers are
being constantly reduced in the
North and West. Last year a lot of
miners were massacred in Penn
sylvaiiia because they did not sub¬
mit quietly to their wage reduction.
A lot more miners were massacred in
Illinois last week because they ob¬
jected. to negroes taking Everywhere their places

The merchants will sell less

loss to mill operatives in a 10 per

will be compelled to reduce the rent
