Whatever theoretical objections NAV
be urged against curfew laws, it must
be admitted that the 800 American
towns and cities which have adCptad
them are, so far as is known. greatly
pleased with their experiment. This
adaptation CT feudal custom to tho
requirements of nineteenth century So
ciety may seem to a step backward.
but if its value be measured 10y the
good accomplished, it deserves respect
ful consideration, none the less.
The modern Curfew law, however, is
made to apply only to children instead
Of to the whole community, like its
ancient namesake 1t is simply an or
dirance requiring all children under a
certain age, usually fixed at Is years. to
be at their hCmes at the hour Of 8
o'clock p. m. in Summer and o'clock
in Winter, unless accompanied by par
cnts or otherwise excepted for good
reasons.
The object of such q regulation is OBJ
vious. Ii is intended 10 save children
and youth frcm the evil Influences Of
the streets at night, one cf the mort
prolific sources of youthful depravity
and crime which exist. The objections
to a curfew law have been that it
would be repugnant to the idea OF per-
sonal rights, assuming it a duty thct
belongs to the parent alone 1t has
also been contended that The existence
Of such a law would be difficult because
Of its unpopularity
But practice, which is better
teacher than theory, has not confirmed
these objections. The city OF Lincoln
| Nrh hnu hr a lna 60
about two years, and Mayor Graham
says: THE results Ct the ordinance in
reducing crime were a complete sur
prise There has been a de-
cided improvement, socially and NOR
ally, Of the youth, and a pecuniaIy saw
ing from the falling-off in the number
OF arrests. This seems to be the strict
~ proper way Of reducing crime among
the youths Of the cities OF the coun-
try"
The chief Of police of Omaha says:
I'VE have had no occasion to make any
arrests under its provisions since It has
been in force. When 9 o'clock comes
the children make it a point TO g
home. 1t is now an easy matter fOi
/ parents to enforce home rules
Mayor MacVicar. OF Des Moines
iwrites: 1--WE consider the curfew ordl
rance very wise law, and wonder now
how we ever got along without sucs
| regulating ordinance. Th'
eigral is respected by all classes"
The curfew law seems to have beer
tried only in Western cities 50 far, sucl
as Omaha. Kansas City and Leaven
worth. but if the trial continues tC
prove satisfactory. Eastern cities vii
re inclined to follow their Western
sisters. The evidence certainly affirm
the value Of the Northumberland

GIVE THEM WORK

Everyone sympathizes with the large
number of New Castle wOrkingmen
who are thrown out of work In the
dead Of Winter. A man who wants
work and cannot get it. is deserving of
something more substantial than sym
pathy. especially il he has a wife and
children dependent upon him for sup
port. That these men want work, there
is no denying. Some OF them are
known to have walked all the way
from New Castle to Edge Moor in
search of situations, only to be in
formed that many of the regular en-
ployes Of that large plant were with
out work. In this city the condition is
not much better, for there are hun
dreds of Wilmingtonians idle and i'm
patiently waiting for something TO oc-
cur to open the way for their employ
ment.
II is a lamentable state of affairs,
and those Republican orators who
promised the workingmen Of the coun-
try such a great revival Of business if
they would but elect Mr.. Mckinley
president, ought to feel heartily
ashamed of themselves for the decep-
tion they practiced. II has been TRUTH

Of Canton has never materialized, and
never will, for he is the representative

and while those who contributed to
the vast fund necessary to elect him
are being compensated by means of ia
vorable legislation, the workmgmen
are no better off than they were be,
fore. The plutocrats chide the work
ingmen for not laying up money for n
rainy day. What wOrkingman can lay
aside anything when he is getting a
paltry salary OF from IS to S12 a week,
and with rent. living expenses, and
many other things to be paid out of it?
