EIGHT HOUR LEGISLATION.

An eight-hour bill has just passed
congress under a suspension of the
rules. It requires that all contracts
made by the United States or by any
territory. or the District of Columbia.
for mechanical labor, shall contain
provision that no labor under such con-
tract shall be require or permitted
exceeding eight hours a day The
penalty is IS fine for each infraction of
the law, or each day the law is disre-
garded.
In time Of war and in transporta-
ton service exceptions are made.
These laws, shortening the hours of
labor, have been attacked wherever
they have been enacted BY state legis-
,latures. The main point of objection
raised is that such an act conflicts
with the fourteenth amendment of the
federal constitution. which forbids the
deprivation Of any persons right to
live, labor or acquire property, except
by due process of law. Most state con-
stitutions contain similar provisions.
but state courts have differed in their
Interpretation of the restriction.
Here in Utah the court upheld the
eight-hour act of the legislature as
valid. and the supreme court of the
United States sustained this decision.
But the federal court Of last resort
confined its opinion to the question of
| the health of employees in certain in
dustries. and held that this might prop
erly be protected by the police power
of the state. No intimation was given
as to whether an eight-hour law on
general principles would be upheld.
The tendency ef such legislation is
undoubtedly in the direction of short
ening hours of toll. and the purpose of
laboring men and labor unions is to
force the government to take the lead
and the fact that this is a presidential
year makes it an easier task than it
might be in another year.

tional and constitutional monarchs. But
this spirit of loyal liberty was basely
betrayed by the rulers whom it had
saved The Holy Alliance sought to
turn back the clock of history and es-
tablish seventeenth century absolutism.
The spirit of nationality was outraged
by a remarking of the map of Europe
without the slightest regard for the
wishes of the peoples involved. In Eng
land the vilest of the Georges succeed
ed his imbecile father. Castlereagh, the
most despicable of ministers, conducted
the foreign affairs of the country. At
home every cry for a much needed re-
form was treated as treason by the all
powerful spirit of reaction. Such was
the atmosphere which surrounded By
ron and Shelley, and such were the
powers of darkness against whom these
sons of the morning lifted up voices of
prophetic denunciation.
Byron and Shelley have often been
cOntrasted, and seldom has critic
done justice to both. In fact, the two
were utterly dissimilar in character and
genius, united only by their common
love of liberty. They are like the two
steeds of PlatO's allegory-the one
"cleanly made and white. a lover of
honor, modesty and temperance" the
/ other of dark color, with gray and
| blOOdshOt eyes, the mate of insolence
and pride" But both drew on the
/ chariot of the soul. 1t is unwise and
uncritical to glorify one by assailing
blest words of those who have spoken
/ best of each in a symphony of praise.
] 1t has been we'll said that Shelley
/ lived and worked in two wOrlds-"one

to be continued through every vicissi-
tude Of life, for better or for worse. and
until death doth part them There
ought to be some way to remind the
frivolous and the light hearted that the
marriage state is not a summer vaca-
ton or a matter of chance companion
ship along the path of life. More should
be taught of the sacredness of marriage
ties and fewer officials should be per-
mitted to sOlemnize them.

worlds as reflected in his verse are
ideal. He is the least tangible and con-
crete of our poets, Whether he sings
of the golden age to come or of his
own love and sorrow there is something
in his verse almost too high and ether
cal for human natures daily food. The
coursers of his verse are fed with the
lightning and they drink of the whirl-
wind. And this gives to his work the
aloofness which all critics recognize
and for which the sterner sort condemn
him as beautiful Intellectual angel. In
early youth he found his intellectual
food in the philosophers that preceded
the French revolution and in Goodwin,
their English representative. Later on
he became a devoted Platonist. From
the first he drew his conception of the
perfectability of mankind: from the
second. his conception of nature as a
partial and fragmentary revelation of
archetypal beauty. Glorious dreams
both, dreams which have inspired his
verse, but with an unearthly loneliness.
When Shelley descends to what we call
practical politics, as in "SwellfoOt the
Tyrant" or Peter Bell he is at his
worst and weakest. He is at his best
when he hymns the victory of ideal
humanity over insolent oppression or
rises to the contemplation of the one
Spirit
Which Yields the world with never
wearied love,
Sustains 1T from beneath and kindles it
above"
The same ideal quality pervades all
Shelley's personal poems. We have in
them wonderful record of his emo
tions, but there Is nothing in them of the
strong humanity of Burns, of the SEN
suous delight of Keats. or of the stormy
agony of Byron. Shelley is a lover of
ideal beauty, worshiper of Venus
Urania. Like the hero of "Alastor, .
his life was spent in a vain quest Tor
human realization of this beauty and
this love. His conception of the pas

The Second Spring of Revolution.
In Shelley and Byron we find once
more full and fierce outpouring of
that spirit of revolution opposed by
Scott and ignored by Keats. This is
intimately connected with the progress
of the great movement of the revolu-
ton. The military despotism of Ma
poleon had been overthrown, not by
any combine ton of kings or statesmen,
but by a general uprising of the ma
tons of Europe against the imposition
of a foreign yoke. This spirit of ma
tional freedom was akin to, yet differ
ent from, the early spirit of the French
revolution. 1t was less visionary and
theoretical; it sought first the downfall
of a foreign tyranny and then the es-
adjustment Of an orderly and regu-
lated freedom under the aegis of ma
