Miss Mary Foster is Il young English
woman who is deeply interested in the
working woman's Il Her name will
be remembered in connection with John
Burns, Mrs. Besaut and the dock hand
lers' strike. She is Il graduate of Cam
bridge university, a graduate of the Gle
illogical society Of London, and also of
the Fabyan society, For the last three
months she has been studying the condi-
tion Of the working women of New
York. In appearance Miss Foster is the
most womanly of women, of Medium
height, has light brown hair, brushed
loosely back from "a broad. intellectual
forehead, fair complexion, the sweetest
OF smiles and kindest of eyes. Altogether
she is different from what the public rX-
poets in "A socialistic agitator.

lieyes the first step toward emancipa-
ton from prevalent poverty is compul-
sorry education. The children of the
very poor are but half fed, and some
times go to school without having any

Foster. they are in no condition to learn.
Therefore the state should provide them

1t is said that "A number Of well known
men in this city have organized II soci-
ETY., the object of which is "to bring
men and women of education into closer
relations with the laboring classes for
their mutual benefit" Nothing could be
more praiseworthy, nothing more admir-
able.
Very often members of the laboring
classes are far more intelligent and cul-
tivated than the people who live in $50
ciety" and spend the greater part Of their
lives in lnanity and %frivolity. In labor
there is n seriousness that is very apt to
make the soul steady.

This WAS pay day, and any one who wit
messed the scenes at the sub-Oilice of the
street department, on Clark venue, near
jefferson, will thoroughly appreciate the
extreme condition to which the laborers
have been brought by the sheer negli-
gence of the assembly. Men who nave
families of five and six, with children
sick and wives without food, were paid
as little as $l.5O-all they had made in
the last two weeks. On that they must
exist for two weeks more, with the pros
pect of receiving no more than they did
today. How they are to live is q prob
lem they discuss with serious faces, but
they cannot solve it.
James Casey said: Il have had one
days work since last pay day, and today
drew $3.50. 1t is all the money lave
got. | don't know what we will do, for
the groceries will not give laborers credit
when they are not working. and we have
to pay cash or get nothing. This money
won't keep my family in food until next
pay day, but we will nave to get it some
way. The most that any one of the la
borers drew today was five dollars, and
some of them have large families. st.

Pennsylvania is the leading protection
state of the Union, and its politicians
are the chief inspiration, financially and
intellectually, of the Mckinley idea.
Pennsylvania is the scene of more labor
troubles than any other state in the
Union. Pennsylvania is the home of
more imported contract laborers than
any other state in the Union. Pennsyl-
vania contains more i'll paid and half
starved workingmen than any other state
in the Union. Yet its manufacturers
howl, hustle and contribute more for
protection than any other state. Put
these facts together, you who toll for a
livelihood, and draw your w conclu.

One of the most interesting of the
labor problems which the English gov
eminent is endeavoring to solve is that
which relates to the employment of
women in the nail, rivet and chain trades
in the Staffordshire and Worcestershire
districts. The work done by these wom-
en- is hard, and much has been written
of the degraded condition of this labor.
A bill is now before parliament which
proposes to restrict the employment OF
such labor, and the measure is looked
upon with general satisfaction both by

The extension of the lumber dealers
lockout to Long Island yards introduced
new complications into a situation al
ready serious.
The establishments did not allege any
grievance against the w~ork1pen's organi-
cation, and their action was of the sort
ordinarily termed "sympathetic." When
such a course of conduct is pursued by
workmen it is denounced as an unreason-
able abuse of the power Of association.
The fact that resort to the expedient OF
stopping employment is had by the pay
ersof wages instead of by those who earn
them does not modify the character OF
the proceeding. The damage done to
labor and to capital is incident to one
case as well as the other, and laborers
may well claim that the offense against
mutual interests is greater when com
