HA8D TINES IN GREAT BRITAIN


Yesterdays cable dispatches gave fair
Illustration of the condition of the working
classes of Great Britain, and suggest the
possibility of degree of suffering that has
hitherto been unknown in that or any other
country on the face of the globe. The Brit
ish as people are somewhat peculiar. They
suffer long-almost to the verge Of starva-
tion-before they complain. The general
complaints at the present time are therefore
peculiarly suggestive. At all the manufac-
turing towns great distress is reported to
prevail, and men, women and children have
been compelled to apply by thousands to
the authorities for shelter from the inclem.
ent weather and for food to stay the crav-
lngs of hunger, and public committees have
Seen formed for the purpose of giving re-
lief. The cold IS said to be severe and
largely increases the distress. In Glasgow
the streets are said to be swarming with
starving creatures, and relief measures are
wholly inadequate for the emergency.
Only at rare intervals has England suffered
from riots on account of want. The dis
tarbances that have occurred heretofore have
been mainly of political character But
now, when absolute famine stares large
number Of the people in the face, when man
ufactories. and mines, and mills are closed,
and when honest labor can find no employ
ment, we may look for excuses without a
parallel in history. The government cannot
provide for the vast army of idle men, wo-
men and children; private and municipal
charity is inadequate to supply all wants.
What, then, is to be done? The danger that
menaces the social and political structure of
the government is great, but how to avert it
will be problem that will puzzle the most
astute statesmen. The manufacturers have
been conducting their business at II loss for
years, and many of them have been obliged
to suspend operations for want of means.
The financial stringency has been unexam-
pied, and many firms hitherto supposed to be
rock-rooted, have succumbed, and brought
down hundreds of commercial houses to ire
trievable ruin. Public works are still
maintained and have been somewhat
extended of late, but these can furnish en-
ployment to only a limited number-the
merest fraction of the vast army ont of en-
ployment. The only remedy that we can
see IS for the government to enter into a
gigantic system of subsidies. 1t will have
to subsidize iron, cotton, and other manu-
faotories--to guarantee profit to those who

both houses of Congress were in control of
the Republican party such a schems might
have prospect of success, but as the House

Gratis, there is no possibility of its being
carried out; for, in order to do so, the pen
