Los ANGELES HERALD. SATURDAY MORNING NOVEMBER a. 1897

successive periods Of quiescence and Of
acute crises, and these latter have al
ways and everywhere been marked by
more or less violent conflict between
opposing classes of society-the exploit
ers of the exploited.
1t Is usual to say that he who contem-
plates with serene satisfaction the pres
ent order of things is an optimist. To
me 1t seems that he who can calmly look
upon the inequality, inequity and down
right injustice to be seen on every hand,
and declare that nothing better. nor
higher, nor juster lies in the future, is
the direst and most hopeless pessimist.
The limits Of this paper will not per-
init any extended statement of the evo-
luton of the doctrine of unrestrained
competition; but by successive steps it
has been brought to naught, until II
now remains but an empty. shadow in
every economic field, save in that of
labor. In the deadly struggle for en-
ployment we still have unrestrained
competition.
Mr.. Patton here drew a vivid picture
Of the horrors and iniquities perpetrated
or allowed to be imposed in the mills and
the mines within the field of labor; a
system which is, happily and by peace
full evolution, passing into another and
better system.
This process began about fifty years
ago in England, in the enactment Of the
Factory act" Public conscience was
aroused to action; politicians at last
bowed to It; parliament responded to the
force Of popular demand by which the
state intervened between employer and
employe, and 1t took upon itself to pre-
scribe what kinds of contracts should
and should not be entered into. .
The rapid march Of events in the past
few years must have revealed to all men
the direction in which we are moving.
|. . The majority will presently
rule. +. Proceeding without injus-
tice or confiscation, the public will take
over to itself the ownership and opera
ton of public utilities. :. f.. In the
meantime, the modern trust" is en-
gagged in giving an invaluable object les
son in the methods by which in the field
of production the enormous waste Of
competition may be saved and supply
and distribution systematized.
The paper was followed by discussion
in which w. A. Spalding, Judge Enoch
Knight, Major H. T. Lee, H. 2. Osborne,
Judge Lewis Croft and Abbot Kinney
took part. About 10 o'clock the meeting
adjourned and a number Of the members
repaired to the council chamber to view
the conflict between the accusers and
the accused in the board Of education

A HORRIBLE CRIME
A Drunken italian Burns His Wife
to Death

ERIE, Pa, Nov. 26.-The wife of An
tonic Miglagno died today most hor-
rible death. Thanksgiving day Antonio
became drunk and went to the cellar to
get more liquor. He fell and his wife
came to his assistance with lamp, but
he threw a hammer at her head and
missed the mark. He then came upstairs
with can of oil and tar, which he threw
in his wife's face. In an instant the
mixture caught fire from the lamp and
she was enveloped in flames.
Help arrived in time to prevent her
from burning UP where she stood. The
woman was laid on her bed and when the
officers arrived they found Antonio
standing over her plucking the cooked
flesh from her breast and arms in
fiendish glee and cursing like a demon.
Whe he was arrested he raved and had
to be subjected to rough treatment be-
fore he could be taken to the police sta
ton.

Interesting Meeting of Womans Board

Interesting Meeting of Woman's Board
 of Missions.
 The regular monthly meeting of the New Haven branch of the Woman $ Board of Foreign Missions was held yesterday afternoon in Center church chapel, and was a meeting of unusual interest.
 Apart from the regular routine busi- ness, treasurer's and other reports, let ters were read from various mission stations in Turkey, in which the board is interested.
 These letters spoke of the suffering which the missionaries in that country are enduring, being in some instances plundered of all their possessions. in- cluding boxes of provisions sent them by the board.
 Miss Abbie Child of Botson, secre- tary of the board, and for many years an enthusiastic and devoted worker in the cause, gave an interesting account of her trip the past year around the world for the purpose of visiting the many stations in which the board is in terested. As an eye witness of the conditions of the native people among which the missionaries are laboring she brought home to the meeting most for cibly the great need of missionary work in those countries.
 Her address included descriptions of the work in India and in North and South China. The condition of the people in those countries is terribly de- graded.
 Miss Child will address another meet ing of the board on Friday
