Child Labor.
Ever since Sir Robert Peel in 1802
introduced and carried the first leg
islation to limit the hours of labor
for children the question of child
labor has been to the front. The
realization that the employment of
children of tender years is detrimen
tal to their physical, mental and
moral welfare, and therefore to that
of society in general has led to one
restriction after another being im
posed by most of the states in the
union and by nations generally. As
a consequence many of the abuses
Incident to child labor have been,
either materially lessened or entire
ly removed. Yet facts are constant
ly coming to light showing that even
today many thousands of cnildren,
many of them but little more than
infants, are working in factories or
in close, ill-ventilated tenements.
What that means as to health and
morals no one can fail to see. Those
children should be at school, de
veloping their minds, and living un
der conditions whreby their whole
being may be advauc d. That thi3 is
not the case is a reproach to our
humanity. Of course the immediate
responsibility for these condition
rests with those employers who pay
such starvation wages, especially in
some industries, that every member
of the family has to help to keep
body and soul together, fnj princi
pal suffers from this cupidi'/.a?*^ the
foreign born people in our la.-sre cit
ies who, being ignorant of American
customs and laws, are tas'ly ?'m-*
posed upcu. But no state can, in
its own interests, afford to have, sucn
conditions continue. The well-being
of any state and community depends
upon the. physical and other welt
being of its citizens. it requires
no great discernment to uiilcistand
hat children whose whole being Is
stunted by hard work can 'ever be
come strong, healthy auc! dc-i-a !>:.3
man and women. .
Vacation for the Little Ones. <
Vacation time for the children
brings anything but holiday sugges
tions to the giown ups, who for the
next two mouths can't turn over
overworked teachers the duty of bfe
ing fathers and mothers to the. sm?ii
folks. The American parent is sp
fearful of abridging the freedom of
the children, that the modern school
boy vacation is a time of the most
unfettered license since the days of
the jungle. On the farm there are
still tasks to be done, but the town
boy is as free from Adam's nurse
is in the sinless days of paradise. As
it really made, a man of Adam -to
get out and earn his bread by t&e
sweat of his brow, so the average
boy is quite as well off if he has<;a
few regular tasks. The trouble xte
that he expects pay for all he does,
with a scale of prices in which even
carrying a pitcher of water has its
union prices. No doubt it is all right
to encourage the boy, paying him (or
his harder work, but he oui,ht also
to be willing to do something every
day as his free contribution toward
family resources.
The Critical Period.
Probably the most critical 'period
in the career of a public man i*
when he is upon the crest of public
popularity. Instances' are not "want
ing in our American-history of men
who were popular idols for a brief
season only to be religated to obi
scurity or to be severely criticised
in the future immediately following.
This was not necessarily their fault,
although in some cases they laid
themselves open to censure by their
injudicious course. In o'.her words
their heads were turned by popu
larity. But usually the change in
sentiment was due to that re-action
which naturally follows a great ex
citement in political as in n ligious
life. If the man honored by popu
lar applause does not lose his bal
ance by popularity and avoids any
unwisdom of speech or action until
conditions in the public mind are
again normal his public career is
safe. And it is to the credit of most
distinguished Americans who have
had to sustain the ordeal that they
have met the situation successfully.
Where the Danger Lies.
Th? 'enemies of the republic" to
day are found within its borders not
without. So tar from being in any
.langer from other countries there is
probably not a nation but wishes us
well and rejoices in our prosperity.
But every boudler and briber, every
member of the "predatory rich," ev
ery monopolist stilling legitimate
competition and (.hereby restraining
trade, and every man willing to seit
his vote and his principles, is an
I enemy and by his evil actions strikes
a blow at the very foundations of
our government. To much leniency
has usually been shown criminals
;.nd there have been innumerable
legal loopholes through which mau>
have crawled beyond the reach of
justice. But the higher moral con
science of tut people is making its
influence Telt. and ttfe prospect foi
punishing evil doers, and for greater
purity and" honesty was probably
never as good as it is now. A man
can'do no more patriotic service by
living the true American life.
Is Near at Hand.
The season is at hand when the
country will be flooded with oratory
in which patriotism and the duti"?
or American citizenship will be em
phasized to the fullest. All that
is well for most certainly there is
need of a higher sense of citizenship.
But to rest content with applauding
the patriotic utterances of speak*. r3
will accomplish nothing in tho way
of bettering conditions. What is
needed is an active, intelligent and
persistent patriotism determined up
up the uprooting of commercial
abuses and political graft and cor
ruption wherever they exist. -The
body politic needs tor Us purifying
less or talk, less ol promises, anil a
great deal more of actual doings
along the line of business <uid politi
cal righteousness.
