But still the thought: somewhere-upon

Sad, wistful eyes. and broken hearts that

For the loved sound of unreturning feet:

fed,and profess the strongest allegiance

but the labor people have seized upon
the opportunity, and pretend to be
greatly incenSed at the gendarmes.
They declare vengeance against the
officials and the government. Their
first movements to,be a strike; and to
bring this about an appeal has been
issued by the delegates of nearly 200
trades syndicates, requesting all labor
ers throughout Paris and the provinces
to quit wotk.
There is little likelihood that the
movement will amount to more thanIa
few rather bloody riots; for the French
government is well prepared for
any outbreak, and will deal with
the instigators very severely. But
there is something more to this
that is worth considering. There
is some excuse for the feeling among.
the laDorers. The French government
has been little less extravagant than
that of the late emperor; taxes are very
high; wages are very low; money Is
very stringent; food and clothing are IN
usually expensive; the long droutb has
caused almost an entire failure of crops,
and almost famine seems threatening;
and to make all this the more aggravat-
ing is the thought of the immense loss
to the government through the Panama
canal frauds. Labor is paid so poorly
that a great many of the people are
forced to live in squaIid and sickly
quarters. On the other hand, good
many of the laboring men are dlssolute
and imDrovident.
France will have to solve the prob
lem, soon or late, of doing something in
the interests of labor. Something
should be done to educate and elevate
these people. 1t will be one of the
most difficult matters to remedy; but it
is none the less one of the most impor-
tant that confronts the nation. AS the
matter stands, the French labor is
dangerous element. 1t can be made,
with the proper attention, thoroughly
loyal and peaceable element.
