Some Interesting Facts Given to the Senate
Committee on the Condition OF the Labor
in the East.
WAsHINGToN, Feb. The examination of
Frank K. Foster, of Massachusetts, was con-
tinued this morning before the Senate Com
mittee on Education and Labor. Foster said
that most of the tenement houses In manu-
featuring cities were owned by mill owners.
and the lessees compelled to furnish 80 many
operatives. The houses generally are small,
ill-ventilated and uncomfortable, aud the
operatives are compelled to live in the CON-
pany's houses or to be dismissed. The sew
erage and sanitary facilities are very bad, :.
and in summer nights the stencil from cess
pools is nearly overpowering.
The French Canadisns are to New En-
gland what the Chinese are TO California and
the Pacific Coast. Their morals are lower,
necessities fewer, and their only aim seems
to be to see how much money they can get
to take out of the country. They do not
wish their children to attend school, and
when compelled to send them often move to
another place. They seldom accept the
right of franchise. Out of a population of
SO 653 in thirty-two cities in New England,
only 996 are naturalized and 9, $50 property
owners.
Mr.. Foster spoke strongly against the EN-
| ployment of children of tender years. Lit
tie cash boys and girls are employed In
| large mum bers in city stores, not old enough
| in many cases to be out from under the eye
of mother. They work during the busy
season from a. m. till 9p. IA. The weary
look of these little ones toward the close OF
their days work Is truly painful. The girls
employed as shop women are paid an aver
age of 81 so per week. Out of this they are
expected to board themselves and provide
| for all the necessities of life, and dress
| themselves we'll. Society demands that
they should be virtuous, yet with the
meager stipend received and the snare.
often thrown around them by those over
| them, il is not a wonder that many fall.
There are some noble exceptions to the
general rule concerning the treatment oi
| employees.
The condition of the mill girls is to bt
deplored. Away from home influence anC
restraint, thrown often among the de-
praved of both sexes, in low tenement
houses, what wonder is it that their morals
are too often low? J speak advisedly, said
Mr.. Foster, vixen l assert that the city o
| Lowell, Mass, alone presents a wide field
for philanthropic work. There is mor'
need there and a better object than building
places for decayed gentlewomen or donating
large sums to Harvard University. Larg
strides have been made in Boston toward
giving working people the benefit of ar
galleries and libraries by opening them on
Sunday.

have been proposed by the host Of writers
who have taken the field on this knotiy theme,
the LIGHT is unable to see in what respect
herdng law would be any improvement upon
the fence law. Il is best to releeate the entire
matter to the Legislature; but we cannot for
bear remsrkirc that when 50 grave and
momentous a question is to be disposed Of
iestina lenie-movs sloNy-heave the lead
line At every step is true wisdom. The oeea-
sion is serious aod the times out Of JOINT.
THIS prosperity Of Texas depends, in
very great measure, upon the cessation OF the
spirit Of lawlessness prevalent in some eoun'
tics. The war waged agains, fences has de-
generated into vandalism and lavlessness, and
is seriously njuring the State by di'ccursg-
inc investments in farming and grazing lands.
Il has caused many s,ockmen to sell out their
cattle. The preienee that the fence cutters
drove out the Indians, and for that reason arc
entitled to destroy fences when they are
erected, is absolute bosh, and even were II
founded in fact that they did eSpel the In
dians, that would confer upon them no right
to trample upon the rights Of their fellow eili-
zens. The LIGHT doubts the wisdom Of APP
plying opprobrious epitheis to the fence cut
ters since its sole effect will be to initiate and
eSasperate them, and for this reason it has
endeavored to appeal to their good sense and
patriotism With the view Of persulding them
to desist from their lawless deeds Of their own
accord. 1t is as plain as is the sun at noon
day, that the wholesale war Wagcd agains,
fences has injured, and is still injuring Texas
most seriously by aresting the influx Of popu-
lation and capital which was pouring into The
State before this ill.tmsd lawlessness deyel-
oped itself

From the Denver Tribune.
Stephen A. Dorsey, the ex-ehampion ex-
pediter Of Star routes, is once more before the
public. This time he is not filling the role
a defendant charged with defraudng th,f
Government, but as plaintiff against his
partners in the great New Mexican ranch, Of
which he is the largest owner. He found that
his partners were trying some tricks on him,
and thinking it best to put n stop on this order
Of things, he made application that receiver
be appointed in whose hands theranch should
be placed. The application was granted and
the shrewd ex-senator is now declared TO be
master OF the situation. His friends say that
it is his intention TO become the sole owner Of
the ranch, and will, 10 a few days, buy his
partners out
On Monday the son of Frank X. Sherwi
visited this city, and Il was learned that he
was accompanied by Dorsey. The visit of the
latter is said to be Of a somewhat mysterious
nature, and reporters are on the qui vive to dis
cover his Whereabouts. Dorsey, however, can
not be found. lie came from his ranch in
New Mexico. A friend OF his remarked yes
terday that he is awaiting the time when he
will ''get even" with the men who formerly
were his friends, but who, whea he became
the principal defendant in the star-route trial,
deserted him and endeavored to shove him to
the wall.
The gentleman who made this remark TO a
Tribune reporter is one Of the Oldest residents
Of Colorado and a warm personal friend OF
Dorsey's. lie believes that Dorsey is not one
of the over-religious men OF the country, but
thinks there are many prominent men in this
country whose chief characteristic is not hon
| esty.
"Does Dorsey feel that he has been psrse-
cuted by some his former friendsl" weE
asked.
