NATIONAL CAPITAL AFFAIRS.
Twenty Years for Idleness.

The State Department made public
report from Consul Donaldson, at
Managua, upon law of the Nicarag-
uan Government regulating and dehn-
ing labor in its relation with capital.
The law went into effect on June 80
last
A laborer is defined as any person,
male or female, over I6 years old. not
having capital OF $Ioo All laborerss
must have employers, and those found
without employment will be imprlson-
ed for 20 years. Ii a laborer desires
money in advance his employer can
give it to him only as loan without
interest to be paid by retaining one
half of the salary or wages until the
debt is paid. :,
A laborcr leaving his employer with
out satisfactory settlement OF his .debi
will be imprisoned, fined and Obliged
to return and work it out.
The Consul says the purpose OF the
law is. first, to do away with the prac
tce OF advancing wages to laborer
on contract which made the labore'
slave until he settled his accounts
and second. to prevent idleness and
viciousness by obliging everyone with
ont capital to be employed.
