In reply TO the structures of MIR. FiDkenburg
of Missouri, upon the injurious effect OF the pro.
tective policy upon the condition ofthe working.
men OF Massachusetts, in his free trade speech
in the house of representatives on Saturday.
Mr.. Hoar said;
Mr. Speaker, ! desire to express nothing bnt
gratitude to the gentleman from Missouri (Mr
Finkenburg) for his able, interesting, and clear
statement, although it is statement of views
from which wholly dissent and an entirely in
correct and incomplete picture of the condition
Of my state. The men of Massachusetts caused
this bureau Of labor statistics to be established
They thrust their probe into these alleged sores
on their body-politic. AT the cost of their peo.
pie they have printed and spread abroad, and
themselves held up TO the public gaze, whatever
of complaint the labOrer of Massachusetts had
to make; and we welcome any friendly critic
land am sure my friend from Missouri is such
toward every American state) who will point
out 10 us what is evil or help MS TO remedy what
is bad in the condition OF our commonwealth.
There Is some truth in the picture which has
been psinted but 1t is after all largely incorrect
and overdrawn. In regard 10 female labor il is
true that the American woman in the New En-.
gland states, as elsewhere, fails TO receive Just
an adequate, an improving, and an increasing
rate Of wages; and ! trust the gentleman from
Missouri VIII JON me In scouting the remedy
which | seek TO apply to that evil by placing IN
the hand Of the American woman the ballot
which to her, as to man, is to be the means OF
protection.
But assert, on my responsibility as a repre-
sentative of Massachusetts, that the native
American workingman within the limits of my
state and my section receives, If not as yet an
absolutely ample compensation, yet that his
condition is steadily improving, and is better
than that Of the laborer anywhere else on the
face OF the earth.
Why, sir, Just look at one fact. These manu-
featuring cities Of our state are filling up with
the cream of the labor of the civilized world.

the horizon, and hang in ragged fringe on the
line of light between them and the gray sea,
which breaks here and there in small waves on
the low sandy shore. The tone of the picture is
subdned, but clear; there is not one bit of posi-
tive, bright color in 1.-THE light on the hori-
zon the green tinge on the face of the little
wave as itcurls into white surf; the tawny hue
of some shore weed; the brown of the monk s
robe and the richer and darker tint of the covers
of his book; the fine face, with the healthy,
weather-beaten red of the cheeks these with
the cold sea and sky make picture of perfect
harmony-a picture that one woull like to live
with. There is no wind yet, the monk reads nm
disturbed, but the uneasy gulls are flying low,
the clouds are in motion, the sea restless; they
wait for the coming gust. But the man is Sc
rene; there is no restless expectation in him. 1t
is picture that suggests great many thoughts.
At Williams and Everetts there is lovely,
misty landscape, by Heade; and capital por-
trait of your Mr.. John d. Baldwin, by Willard.
1t is one of Wizards best; good as apicture,
and an excellent likeness; it gives Mr.. Baldwin's
thoroughly, kindly, and benevolent, but some
what amused expression; the Took with which
he might listen to somebody whom he heartily
liked, whose talk pleased, entertained, and fail
ed to convince him. Yet strength is not sacri-
fed TO kindness in tine face, which is decidedly
one Of intellect and thought.
One of the most striking of the new books is
"a Shadow of Dante" by Maria Francesca Ros-
sett. 1t is the story of Dante's pilgrimage, told
in prose, with all needful explanations, Miss
Rossetti is an enthusiast, and in such perfect
sympathy with Dante that apparently she be-
lieves in his cosmogony, his theology, and in the
Justice of all his condemnations and approvals,
1t seems a strange book to be written by an En-
glish woman of to-day; yet has charm which
it is not easy to describes consisting partly in the
purity of the style, partly in the enthusiasm,
and partly in the devotion of the authors to
