deep sigh of relief During the last week.
since the President and his staff have
been occupying the old house. the Secret
Service chief and his subordinates have
been In a state OF nervous apprehension
bordering on panic.
Too Easily Seen.
The reason for this apprehension is
found IN the fact that while IN that house
the President has been in plain view Of
a dozen or more windows. He could not
make a move n his Office, dining room,
or private apartments that could not be
seen from the residences on H Street.
"A man could sit in any one Of those
windows on II Street" e" said a Secret Ser
vice detective, "and pick of the Presi-
dent with a rifle bullet, and make his es-
cape without any of US having the re-
motest idea whence the shot was fred.
Sits at Open Windows.
''The President, always careless Of his
personal safety. cannot be persuaded TO
take any precautions. and ever since he
has occupied the place has been in the
habit OF sitting at the open window or out
in the yard with members Of his Cabinet
and other callers.

leave the place We hope that by the
time ne returns to Washington, he viii

ult,mat. of tn. prot.ot,on idea.

Whenever one man is protected" it
is done at the expense of some other
man. The wall of the infant industry
for protection so soon grows into the
hoarse and defiant howl of the gigantic
and merciless trust that we look with
suspicion upon every form of enter
prise that starts with plea to be fed
from spoon. We are accustomed to
thinking of the government as great
source of wealth, an immense money
mill. Wherever gigantic scheme is
proposed-one, it may be, requiring an
expenditure of hundreds Of millions
the objection to its cost is glibly an
swered by the declaration that the
government has plenty of money; why
not turn it loose? If this theory can
be reasoned out, let us all quit work,
sit down and let the government sup
port US.

More About Child Labor.

When capital began to seek invest
ment in the manufacture Of cotton
some years ago, cheap labor and an
absence of danger Of interference by
labor unions were among the induce
ments held out in Alabama. A Massa-
chusetts corporation. however, while
investigating these points discovered
an old law, passed in 1887, which pro-
hibited the employment OF children
under 10 years of age for more than
eight hours a day. This law was
strenuously objected to, and an ac-
commoaating legislature repealed it in
1894.
Since then there has been nothing to
prevent the mill owners from running
about as they please, and the Massa-
chusetts concern is now employing
many children under the age of IL. In
fact, the Alabama mill that does not
employ children of eight and ten is
rarity.

Work In Behalf Of Children.

The bill introduced into the last leg
islature of Alabama to regulate the
labor of children only reached the
stage of public hearings-which were
largely attended. But the agitation in
favor of such legislation is gaining or
ganized strength, and it is inevitable
that factory legislation for the protec-
ton of children should ultimately be
adopted in the south as 1t has been
elsewhere in the manufacturing world.
Indeed, it ought everywhere to be rec
ognized at this stage of modern prog
ress" that the exploitation of the
strength of young children, on how
soever plausible pleas-anu least of all
on the preposterous claim that great
industry can only survive thus-is a
grave social blunder.
All unprecedented persons Will COM
mend the efforts being made in the
south to take the tender children out
Of the cotton mills and give them in
stead the play and schooling which
befit their age.

Miner. Would Honor John Mitchell.

A movement has been started
among the coal miners to set apart one
day of the year for recreation and
speechmaking in honor OF their ma
tional president, John Mitchell. There
is no doubt that Mitchell deserves
great credit for his generalship as
head Of the miners organization. In
a short time he has succeeded in build
ing up a healthy, prosperous and
peaceful organization out of an over
worked, discontinued, unorganized peo-
pie. Mitchell's modesty prevents him
from taking any credit for the present
conditions Of the miners. He says that
the men themselves are responsible
for their present condition, but the
miners know that 1t was his wisdom
on methods of organization that rails
ed their association to the high stand
ard it occupies among the operators
and general public.

Mr.. nsverid &c on wizards.

Albert j. Beverage, the junior sena-

Mr.. Beveridge said the Wall street
wizard has disappeared. meaning prob
ably that the capitalist who a few
years ago welded an influence with a
million dollars has dropped from the
throbbing contest. He seems, how
ever, to have forgotten the high priest
Of wizards. who regards single mil
lion as mere bagatelle and builds
upon billions. Day after day newspa-

he is so mighty that he has swallowed

New York Tailors in Unions,

All signs point to the more perma-
nent organization of the New York
tailors. The unions have doubled their
aues and introduced sick and death
benefit features. Since the great strike
in August the conditions obtained
have been upheld, and no ground has
been lost. This is remarkable con-
trast to former experiences. Should
this continue, it will obviate the neces-
sity of the annual strikes, which were
consequent upon the generalization
due to the disbanding of the unions
Immediately after so-called victory.
More stable conditions are now likely
to prevail, and also a sharp upward
trend, which must in time put an end
to the abuses from which the trade
has been suffering.

Wasea In oldsn Times.

Compared with other professions,
physicians, for instance, the salaries Of
teachers, low as they seem to us, were
never unfair in the early days Of the
country. The only trouble was that
they were not always paid, as the
towns did not always have the money.
These arrearages ran sometimes for
years. Prior to 1882 physicians, even
in Boston, where rates were higher
than in the smaller towns, charged
but twenty-five cents for visit, ex-
cepI to such as were in high life," to
whom the fee was fifty cents. In 1882
the Boston physicians formed a club
cents; visit in consultation 81 and
double fee for night calls. But the sal
airy of the teacher of the Boston Latin
school was 5000 in 1910, and was in
creased from time to time. Even after
the combination of physicians in 1882
1t is doubtful If many Of them had
larger income than the salary Of the
principal of the high school, which
was then $500.
The school teachers began to have

years. His deathbed statement con-

school teachers, rather than from its
puritan ministers, came that which
made it the cradle of liberal thought

America.

Urge Chinese Exclusion.

Resolutions urging congress to enact
a Chinese exclusion law are being
adopted by labor unions and copies
sent to representatives and senators.
The form Of the resolution emanates
from the American Federation OF
Labor, and an urgent letter from
President Samuel Gompers advises
their adoption without delay. The
resolutions declare that the Limited
benefits of trade to be obtained by the
so-called open-door policy for China
cannot even in the smallest degree
recompense our people for the i'm
mensely greater loss caused by the
displacement of so many of our own
countrymen who are consumers as
well as producers. The consuming
power of the Chinese laborer is limit
ed almost exclusively to products Of
China, and the surplus Of his earnings
is sent out of this country. where it is
earned, checking its prosperity, while
the wages paid to our own people re-
main and correspondingly enrich us,
stimulating our own industry and
trade"
Attention Is called in the resolutions
to the opium joints and gambling hells
conducted by the Chinese in California
and they say the opportunity for mil
lions of them to invade this country
would be nothing short of a national
calamity.
