'professed principles Of those who seem 10 be
al the bottom Of the movement.
LegisIatIng for Women and Children.
The Massachusetts, LEGISLATURE has under
taken TO say that - hours ,ha' be the week
ly limit for women and children in the fac
tories OF the state, ami bill fixing these
fures as the length ot time they shall be
employed has passed the senate Objection
is made to this interference on the part Of
the state. on the ground that such 4 re-
striction would place our manufactu -ers at
disadvantage with their competitors in other
states where the hours IN which women and
children may be kept at work are unlimited.
II is said, also, that the class Of operators in
whose interest the bill is supposed to be
framed do not wish for shorter hoars but to
be allOwel to work as long a. they please
and earn as much wages as they can. But
these objections do not reach the point. The
real question Is whether sixty hours or
more, Of factory WORK is injurious 10 the
women and children thus employed. aud
whether the proposed reduction oftwo hours
will give the relief necessary for home duties,
for study and for recreation. The most
valuable product of a state is its people, and
here in Massachusetts,, as elsewhere. they
should be protected even ifnot another yard
Of cloth or pair OF shoes are ever made.
Arbor Day In Boston.
The Observance OF Arbor Day here showed
gratifying growth Of interest in this ho-
day. The most interesting exercises in this
part OF the state were those which the Inter
national Order Of Kings Daughters and
Kings sons conducted on Boston Common.
Three promising young Trees were set out on
sunny spot near the Joy street entrance
between the Frog Pond and the Beacon
street mall, with appropriate ceremonies. Ii
is not too much to say OF this holiday That no
other Of recent establishment has i better
claim upon public favor or promises more
for public good.

The Free Ship Bill.


A measure which would give healthy
tone to the shIpbuilding interests of New
England and would be a long stride in the
direction Of restoring American commerce
and the establishment of the prestige OF this
country upon the ocean, will be the passage
of the free ship bill by the lnited States
Senate. 1t has already passed the House
and will no doubt be favorably considered
by the upper branch Of the National Con.
gress. At present there is not one OF the
fast lines of ocean steamships flying
the American flag. Great Britain and
France have subsidized the lines sailing
under their colors and thus have at their
command some of the fastest cruisers in the
world to call upon in case Of need. The
United States has practically nothing. Under
this bill the Inman line would become
American, and those superb ocean flyers
the CITY of Paris and the City of New York.
would become subject to this government.
Both were built under the supervision OF
the British government with view to max
ing them perfect cruisers in case OF war.
Besides this the line must build in this coun-
try several other ships Of equal capacity,
which will give further impetus to Ameri'
can shipbuilding, and one at least. is intend
ed to exceed anything aloat.
That Forum Again.
The proposition to buy Oakland Garden at
a cost Of $780, 900 for a forum for working
men, has been retained in the appropriation
order by the aldermen. This is a piece Of
extravagant folly which It Is to be hoped
will be defeated in the end. The place IS
not convenient for the purpose intended, and
cannot be arranged for open-air meetings
without large expenditure of money. Al
time when we are loudly demanding pru-
dence in municipal expenditures, the laying
out Of an expensive forum, to be used for
only few months in the year, may well be
delayed 1t is clearly not in line with the

II IS with unfeigned regret that the old
patrons Of the Boston Museum will take
leave of Miss Annie Clarke at the close Of the
present season on the list. Her engage
ment at this house has been long aud
successful one, and her name is the only one
which binds a brilliant and revcrcd past to
more prosaic present. she was the cOntem-
porary of Warren and Mrs. Vincent, names
endeared to all who knew them in professio.
nal or social life, and it Is proposed to make
her retirement from the practice of the art
which she has adorned the occasion OF
testimonial benefit on the 26th OF this month.
The distinguished names appended to the in.
vitation indicate the regard in which Miss
Clarke is held by the Boston public and give
assurance Of the genuine character of this
testimonial. 1t will be sincere tribute To
artistic merit in which the public of two
generations will heartily Join.

Alive Wire and Dead Horses.

1t is not altogether reassuring nor par
ticularly pleasant to contemplate that the
guard wires placed over the trol!eys on thu
West End electric railroad should them
selves become engines of death. When one
OF these wires break. they naturally fall
upon the heavily charged troIleys, and mol
being insulated, they become live wires, and
thus increase rather than diminish the dan.
gers from such accidental crossing Of wires.
Such a case occurred on fremont street one
day last week and resulted in the killing Of
fine span OF hcrses.

We believe that the Senator can do great
good by makinG.a number of speeches IN

here, bat it may be that his services are
more urgently needed in other States. II
so. we must sacrifice our interests and
pleasure for the advantage Of our brethren

audience ever assembled in this city to

MIR. Cleveland's Welcome.

"Unorganized good intentions and Idle
patriotic aspirations cannot successfully
contend for mastery with the compact
forces of private interest and greed, nor is
ORGANIZATION always most useful which has
the widest extent" So said Mr.. CLEVELAND
yesterday when, as a citizen of New York,
he welcomed TO that metropolis the Ma
tional Association of Democratic Clubs.
1t is an admonition to all those numerous
well-meaning, but slow-movinR and easily
tired Democrats, who. while full of sym
patty for the cause. do nothing 70 pro-
mote it. They are loyal, but do not show
it by jealous works. Many of them con-
slider il enough for them to do to 60 to
the polls and vote the ticket. and too
often they sneer at workers"
What Mr.. CLEVELAND would have them
do is to Organize their good intentions"
IN no other way can this be better done
than by joining club and becoming an
active working and contributing member.
There is room in the clubs for all. and the
services Of all are needed. Old men are
wanted for their counsel; young men for
their energy and industry; rich men for
their company land their means), and poor
men because they form the mass of the
party, because thew are the country's bull
wark in war and the wgtch-guards Of
liberty in peace.
Mr.. CLEVELAND spoke of the club-men
whom he addressed yesterday as REPRE-
senting political thoughtfulness and SIN
cerity" and as ian impressive convoca-
tion," and Of their purposes rs embodying
1.-THE loftiest aspirations of American
citizenship; all Of witch is true and well
said.
We conclude, therefore. that Mr.. CLEvE-
LAND would have his supporters and friends

November eth.

Governor Fleming and the Force Bill

Governor Fleming and the Force Bill.
We referred the other day to a speech
which Governor FLEMING had just made in
Charleston, w. Va. In that speech Gov
ernor FLEMING referred 10 the old Republi-
can election law of his State, and the
manner in which in former days 1t had
been executed with force for party pur-
poses. and called attention to the still
worse crimes which could be committed
under national force bill. In brief.
Governor FLEMING showed that If such
crimes upon the elective franchise could
be committed under a Stnte law. which
provided for neither military nor Federal
interference. much more iniquitous pro
ceedings could and would be Iesorted to
under the operation Of the national force
bill. under which the United States mar
shall and his deputies, backed by the
United States army, would control all
elections Yes. all elections, northern and
southern. and all elections. State and
national. The Federal law is already bad
enough. II provides for an indefinite
number of officials 10 supervise the con-
gressional elections. But the HoAR force
ISM" would strip us to the shirt.
We are glad to see that the Democratic
Governor Of West Virginia is doing such
good work. aud so much of it., in his own
State. His exposition at FaIrmont of the
platform of the Republican party of the
Mountain State gives assurance that STEVE
ELKINs will not be able to induce that lit
tie State 10 range itself next month under
the Republican standard. In fact, he
must have torn down the platform and
trsmpled upon its planks. backed by the
good people of Fairmont.
But how, we may be asked. can n Fede-
raj law be made TO operate upon State
elections2 We answer that in New York
and many other States there Is only one
ticket used by each voter in voting at the
presidential election. He must use ticket
which contains the names OF all the candi-
dates to be voted for at the time of the
presidential election.
The people of West Virginia know from
experience what force bill is. In his
speech above referred to Governor FLEN-
ING mentioned the fact that under what
was called a State registration law the Re
publican Governor FOREMAN did. in 1869,
go to Washington city IN person and pro-
cure q company of Now York troops Eyes.
New York troops to be sent to West Vlr-
ginia to aid In the perpetuation of Repsb-
hcan rule in that State. Under the ma
tIonal force bill recommended by the
Minneapolis convention the ballot-bOx
will IN every State be surrounded by Fede-
raj soldiers as means of perpetuating the
rule Of the sectional Republican party.
But being forewarned the voters will be
forearmed. The people of the United
States will rot hold their hands out to
their oppressors and ask them to put
handouts upon their wrists. The Demo-
cratic party will save the country once
more from wreck and ruin. Let us all re-
joice that's shall have An opportunity on
the Sth of November to aid in the good
work of sweeping the Republican party of
the face Of the earth.

MILLINERY OPENING

This morning we throw open our Mil
linery Parlors for your inspection and
approval. The display OF Partisan and
New York models is by far the greatest
we have ever attempted. Indeed, our
Millinery stock looks too large, but We
depend on your appreciation to make
the outcome right.
We have always shown Paris models,
but the trouble both in New York aud
Richmond is that Partisan styles for
warded by resident foreign representa-
tiyes sometimes fail OF the approval of
American trade. We have escaped that
trouble this time by having our mana
ger. who thoroughly knows our trade,
spend the summer at the great foreign
millinery centres. The result is mani
fold: We have larger collection Of
Partisan models than ever, because the
temptation for her to buy was just too
great to resist. We have whatever of
Paris is peculiarly adapted to Rich
mond rs the best dressed city OF the
South. and we have armed the depart
ment with supply of ideas that more
than ever removes any desire to dupll-
cate. We are not copyists; we create.
The models from Paris are from the par
lors of these celebrated artists:
Nine. Nirot,
Linn Faulkner,
Nine. POnianne,
Nine. HetZ Boyer,
Felice Chretian,
Blanche Jeannisson.
These are supported by the crowning
New York effects and the creations Of
our own artists.
To the best we've ever shown, gathered
under circumstances unsurpassed, with
pleasant show-rooms and plenty OF
trained workers to the display thus pre-
pared come. An opening is a pleasant
occasion, but sometimes openings ex-
pend the whole force OF the season. Not
SO here. Come when you will and at
your bidding there will be produced a
