HISTORY OF THE EIGHT-H0UR
MOVEMENT IN AMERICA.

The history Of the movement for q
shorter days work in this country is
thus given by Drldstreet's: "Agita-
ton began about 1926, and the first
decided victory was secured in 1910,
when President Van Buren, proclaim
ed the ten-hoar day. Gradually this
became the custom in the building
trade, and. considering industry all i'll
ali ia this country, that is about the
average length today. massachusetts
and Rhode Island are the only states
which have acompalsorg ten-hour law
for factories; but many other states
have passed eight and ten hour laws,
SIMPLY declaring, bntsnot compelling.
BY President Grants proclamation in
1868, and by the Act Of Congress soon
following, the cight-hour day was or
derod for all the Government yards
and workshops, and, with some ex-
ceptiens, this has been theoretically
the rule.
THE advocates Of an e%ight-hour
day san make a strong point by de
monstrating tue ever increasing pow
er of steam and its progressive sub
stitution for hand labor. The Eng
lish statistician Mulhall, in his recent
" published work on the History Of
Prices makes number of goneraliz-
atoms which are full Of force in this
connection. Taking the working
hours of Europe and the United
States, he shows that while population
since 1850. has risen "a per cent,
working-power has increased los per
cent, and as a consequence OF this
five men can now accomplish as much
as six in 1870 Or eight in 1850. It is
also stated that the worlds steam
power is now five and a half times
what il was in 1850, and has nearly
doubled since 1870. It is such facts
as these that the labor organizations
are now utilizing in claiming that an
eight-hour day would create a demand
for one-fifth moro labor, and thus
bring back into the field Of labor tho
hundreds of thousands who are now
idle. It is not thought that a reduc-
ton from ten hours to eight would
result in an equal production with the
same number Of operatives as vas the
case in the decrease from twelve to
ten. It is not probable that the body
is overworked, us a rule, at the pres
ent time. Il is thus seen that the
movement is an old one with a new
face, and that its consideration in
wolves othcr elements than have en-
tered into the Ease in time past"

Governor West, Utsh's e2ecu-
tive, had his first set-to with the Nor
mons recently, and he received a
hard tap on the nose as the result.
He had heard a great deal about the
Mormon cry Of persecution, and con-
cludad he woasd test the truth of it.
Accordingly he called at the Peniten-
tiary and asked Elder Snow if he and
his brothers would obey the laws of
the land if pardoned for their past
violation of the unlawful cohabitation
laws. The reply was "We are fol-
lowing the dictation OF God and can
not give way to the laws Of man"
That settles their chances of clemency
and they will now remain in confine-
ment and serve out their full sen
fences.

Hereford Cattle.

The Hereford cattle get their name
from the county in England in which
they originated. They are the
prize fat beef cattle Of England. They
and the Devons are the oldest known
breeds of domesticated cattle. Their
flesh is evenly distributed in streaks
Of red and white of the fat and lean.
They are the nearest solid beef, with
out waste, of any bovines in existence.
Nature seems even to have grudged
tLem legs in her desire to make meet
Of them, They have been bred to beef
for centuries and there is less waste
in them for beef than there sis in the
Shorthorns. They are not great
mixers In themselves, but when cross
ed with our native COWS make useful
dairy and farm animals. Crossed
with Shorthorns they would make
very fine general purpose cattle.
The Herefords were introduced into
this country half a century or more
ago, and they are now scattered into
most parts of it. Whenever you see a
dsrk-red cow with a white face and a
white stripe down the back, that cow
has Hereford. They are patient,
good-natured animals. and steers
make valuable oxen, are popular in
the West and make a greatly i'm
proved cross with the wild Texas cat
tie. They lie one of the best breeds
for this purpose. The Herefords are
regular show cattle at western exhibi-
tons, and take many prizes. There
is really no more valuable beef ami
mails than thoy. The bulls deep
brisket descands in solid weight of
beef well nigh to the ground.

In making his budget speech, Pre-
mier Norquay stated his intention OF
moving at an early date for a special
committee of the house to consider
the Hudson's Bay railway scheme,
with a view of aiding it and devising
some mean of securing its construct
ion. He believed he was in a position
to lay much information before the
committee regarding the scheme as
would place it in an acceptable light
to the people. He estimated that a
vote would be taken on the question
before any definite legislation was
passed. His scheme is understood t.
be to have q plebisclt before a bill
which he proposes introducing, to
give such assistance to the road as
will secure its construction, passes the
house. If it meets with public ap-
proval, he will make it the main plank
in his platform at the coming election.

commodation of cattle. It will be the
largest structure of its kind in the

cattle this fall from the Montana

action will place US 10 the position to

with the agreement to buy them

priated to pay the money order clerk.

reduce salaries or his staff, and he has
decided to do the former, reducing all
salaries II per cent. Mr.. Griff Jones
has declined to concur In the reduction,
believing that after six years service OF
Is hours per days he is entitled to full
salary. He has therefore resigned his
