HOURS or WORK
By Lord Salisbury.

Parliament has been asked to have it
made penal for any ~shopkeeper to give
employment to a man, however much he
may desire it, if hat employment lasts
beyond 7 O'Clock in the evening.
What is provided is that any trades
man who desires that his own business
and the business of his rivals shall ter
inmate at Z O'Clock may sketch out a
district where he likes, take in whom he
likes ~belOnsing to this particular branch
OF commerce, and if he can obtain two
thirds of his ~neighbors to combine with
him he may cOeree by penal enactment
the rest of the tradesmen not to conduct
their business after the hour of Z.
Such a measure has never certainly
been on the statute books of England
before. Hitherto grown-up men have
been at liberty to dispose Of their labor
as they liked, and tradesmen have been
allowed to conduct business as they
thought fit under such conditions as they
pleased. But in the proposed new law
If two to one of any district Join to-
gether, on most fanciful grounds, and if
they can be got to say that they prefer
the earlier hours, the minority VIII have
to bow to their decision, and not conduct
their business after the time that suits
the majority.
That is undoubtedly a very new prin-
ciple to Introduce in the legislation of
England. Besides that, it is not a mat
ter to be decided by a majority, nor de-
cided by the number of people in a dis
trict who have peculiar views, but 1T Is
to be decided by an odd kind of plebiscite
of those who pursue a particular branch
of commence. and they are to determine
the law under which their neighbors may
pursue their industry.
If the thing stopped Their I should still
say that it was a very novel interference
with the liberty of men to dispose of
their labor and to dispose of their capital
as they please: and 1t would probably

whose experience las brought hem into
close touch with the worst effects If alb
sinthism.
For instance, DR.. Jacquet. one of the
most eminent physicians in Paris, re-
Gently reported to the medical society Of
that city hat the nation was being ruin
ed by absinthe. He said that while the
use of that liquor had formerly been con-
fined to the idle classes, the working peo-
pie had o. fallen victims no the vice
and that their use Of the poison had in
creased to such an appalling extent hat
they now required it with their meals as
well as before lunch and dinner. and he
did not hesitate to say that he believed
that it was the absinthe habit that was
responsible for the morbid irritability
which. he claims, is so rapidly becoming
one of the characteristics of the French
| people. DR.. Lancereaux, another promi-
nent French physician, is just s conf
dent that the use Of absinthe Is one of
! the greatest dangers that threatens the
nation, and in fact. II might go on al
most indefinitely in quoting from the
medical men Of France as to the evil
effects of this seductive and nerve-de-
stroying drink.
Some idea of the increase in the use OF
this beverage may be gained from tine
statistics in the hands of the French tax

For years it has been a matter for con-
ejaculation that the drinking of absinthe
was a vice to which the great majority of
Americas were not addicted, but it is
now felt that if the French manufacture
ers are permitted to carry out their plans
it will not be long before the people of
this country are closely bound in the
coils of the 'Green Monster" a condition
that may we'll be regarded as the begin
ming Of the end of Americas greatness
as a nation.
The natural result of the feeling of
dismay at the horrible prospect that is
threatened has not been confined to that
class of people often known as temper
ance cranks." Total abstainers and
workers in the temperance fields have
lifted up their voices in protest. 1t is true,
but their arguments have been no more
emphatic in character thar those of the
medical fraternity, while men of fore
sight in nearly every walk o. life have
united in a general demand that the gov
eminent take some steps to prohibit this
French business men from carrying our
their plan. They feel that it is the duty
of the authorities to take these necessar!
steps at a time when the mass Of the
people is yet free from the clutches o
this terrible demon. and not wait unit

But let us consider what a woman

who has to provide for husband and

She has to buy meat-not necessarily

I might go or and give an indefinite list;
but it is proposed to shut her out from
the whole of that at the only
time of the day when she mas leisure to
pursue it.
l maintain that there is a ~" more
important body. a far larger body, a
body whose necessities are greater, a
body whose claims in legislation of this
kind should press more. imepriously, and
those are the who frequent
these shops. If you ~hut up these shops
by legislative action you at all times

that the end will be that the shopkeepers

the prime necessities of the poor? W.
should leave them to pursue their com
merce according to their ancient prac
tice.

authorities. for 1t can be seen that the
consumption of absinthe in Paris has
increased from 1880. 600 gallons in 1888 to
an estimated consumption Of 6,32O,tJO for
last year, or. in other words. more than
four times as much absinthe is consumed
today as was drunk about 10 years ago.
and when it is remembered that these
figures represent h amount Of pure al
cohol in the liquor. n not IN It's bulk.
it will be seen that the actual amount of
LIQUOR consumed must be much greater.
TIP to a few years ago the use of alb
sinthe was practically unknown in Eng
land, but its consumption has now In
creased to such an extent that a league
has been formed with the object to pro-
hibit the sale of the poison. Five years

the first place, I think that the shop as
sistants are to be considered, but that is
comparatively a very small matter. They
are not the most important persons that
are affected by the opening or shutting
of shops; some consideration, a great
deal of consideration, is due to the con-
sumner.
The consumer is the important per-
son.
If the ~shopkeeper or the shop assistant
does not like his trade he can Leave it
and go to another. but if the consume
is not to have that which he is in the
habit of consuming, which is, perhaps,
a necessary of life, he has no %ecour
left whatever.
A certain number of districts, proba-
bly, the poorest, will be under a law thai

There are very few members of the
house of lords who will want. except

to shop after Z O'Clock: but there are
hundreds of thousands of women in Lon
don who spend their day in work and
who have not the tim for making the
requisite provision for their necessities
and their household goods until after 6
O'Clock. A bill closing all the shops at
Z O'Clock would exclude them from any
purchases they desired to make. Now
in one case it is provided by ar odd sort
of special provision, that nothing in the

it will be impossible to stay it's rav-

AS an illustration of what harm may
be done by absinthe they point to tine
history of this drink curse in France,
and they demand that some action be
taken to prevent the United States from
following the footsteps of the republic
across the water.
APPEAL TO WASHINGTON.
OF course it is a question whether the
government can be persuaded to take
the matter in hand. but a strong fight to
bring about such a result will surely be
made, and when the facts about the ma
ture and effects of the drink are fully

such a storm Of protest that Washington
will be compelled to listen II not to heed
