Family Wiped Out.
While at work last' month in a mill at Iteadsville, Georgia, U.S.A., Mrs. J D. Wilkes, her daughter and granddaughter, were killed The daughter, with her baby, got .caught m the shafting of a cotton gin. The grandmother tried to save the baby. All b i irAC were killed. Their death was perhaps preferable to that of many an unfortunate child and adult in those factory hells. The long-drawn-out death with continually decreasing vitality' is the worse of the two. However, the suddenness of a death such as this brings home more forcibly the horrors of Capitalism.
