The Contract LaborLaw.

The object of the passage of the alien con-
tract labor law was to put an end to tho
practice OF bringing to this country from the
countries OF Europe large bodies of laborinr
men undercoDtract. Theeyil resulting from
this practice was two fold. In the first place

In the second place 1t tended to break down
the wages of the American laboring man.
because this foreign labor could exist on
next to nothing, and therefore could work
more cheaply than the American laborer.
The law was passed largely because of
the demand of the labor organizations, and
no doubt some congressman who voted for
1t did so simply to make themselves solid
with these organizations. Nevertheless the

The prevention Of the importation of Eng

Is likely to make some real hardships. Take
the case of Calais and st. Stephen referred
to in our Geographic columns yesterday.
These two places are about equal in popula-
ton. One Is on the English side nf the st.
Croix, and the other on the American, Some
Americans earn their daily bread over in st.
Stephen. while some Canadians do likewise
in Calais. As far as can be judged, about as
many Calais men earn their living in St
Stephen as st. Stephen men in Calais. The
same condition of things prevails probably
all along the Canadian border, where Cana
dian and American towns are near together.
Under strict construction of the alien labor
law, however, every American employer who
hires Canadian is liabe to be arrested and
subjected to heavy fine. Congress proba-
bly, never intended that the law should APP
ply In cases of this Kind. 1t simply aimed to
put an end to an evil and that evil was
the importation of Hungarian, Italian
and other foreign laborers under con
tracts that put them about upon the
level Of coolies. There is no real evil in
this practice along the Canadian border. If
Canadian workingmen compete with our
workingmen on this side of the border, so do
our workingmen compete with Canadians on
the other side. And the result Is probably
that both get more opportunities for employ
ment than they would if confined to their
own countries. II there happens to be a

live in an adjoining town on the border get

Prof. Albion w. Small to succeed President

one. Prof. Small Is a profound scholar and q
Colby and as such is familiar with her tradl-

President Pepper has performed the duties
OF his Office with distinguished success. He
