Colonel Carroll D. Wright, chief of the
Massachusetts Bureau of Statistics of Labor,
in his recent report called the French Cana
dams who live in New England the "Chinese
of the Eastern States" DIR. Thompson of
Lowell takes exception to this epithet in a
vigorous open letter. He says that the
French Canadian operatives of Lowell are
Industrious quiet and generally intelligent.
In one district of the city, inhabited by 4,500
of these people, there is not rum shop or
gambling house in existence, and there is
never disturbance of the peace unless some
of the native born or other foreigners take
the initiative in causing it. In reply to the
statement that the French Canadians are mi
gratory, DIR. Thompson says: ''Fifty per
cent. of their labor, outside the mills, is
clean profit to the contractors 33 per cent
to the manufacturers. This stays in the
country. The largest part of their wages
goes to our people for food, clothes and rent

1t VIII Not DO.

To the Editor of the HERALD:
As tax payer and one who has nothing
in the water company, would IKE to ask
the people Of Dallas if they think our city
council does them justice when they place
upon US debt Of one hundred and twenty
i've thousand dollars TO build up an opposi-
ton to the water company we already have,
and which they can buy or rent for about
one half of what it will eventually cost to
break it down. Is there another instance of
this kind on record, where city government
deliberately burtheus the people with
heavy debt to make an experiment, when a
paying certainty is offered them at nearly
half the cost? ls there member of the
council who would take one hundred dollars
stock in this new mode? and will it not be
better by far for Dallas as city and It's cit
'zeDs, for the council 10 either buy or rent
the present works, and then use the balance
of their liberslity in giving US one good
sewer and one good street? what may still be
better, donate the amount necessary to bring
to our city the narrow gauge railroad, and
thereby save the lives of some of our good
citizens who are toiing in the heat and dust,
begging from every ono they meet few
dollars, to save the city the disgrace oil losing
the road.
