A GOOD DEAL OF COMMENT,
n friendly, critical. humorous and
otherwise, has been occasioned by
the free government boarding
house, which has just been
opened in Washington under the aus
pices of the agricultural department.
In the opinion of The Herald, the re-
suits of this experiment viii be very
valuable. 1t was started for the pur-
pose of ascertaining what effect GER
tain food adulterants have on healthy
human bodies.
Twelve vigorous young men have
been selected as the subjects. They
are fed three times a day on articles
treated with borax and other preserva-
tives, judiciously intermingled with
food that has not been adulterated or
medieated in any manner. A physi-
clan looks carefully after the young
men. They are weighed each day,
their temperature is taken and they de-
scribe their feelings thoroughly.
1t is possible that the experiments
VIII show that some adulterants which
have been considered extremely dele
terious, are really perfectly harmless.
On the other hand, if it becomes appar-
ent that the subjects are suffering as
a result OF their food, the department
will have succeeded in demonstrating
that the aduiterants and preservatives
are hurtful. In either event the knowl-
edge is worth having.
There is very little prospect that any
Of the boarders will be hurt They are
all too carefully watched for that and
they are in no sense heroes or mar
tyrs. Instead they are healthy and
normal young men who know a good
thing when they see it and can make
the most Of 1t. 1t is far better that
the tests be made on them than on
animals. because in the case of animals
nothing of value would be proven in
the end.
Some newspapers have endeavored
to make a sensation out of the matter
by talking of the "poisons9 these young
men win consume. AS a matter of
fact they viii take no more poison than
the ordinary, every day citizen takes
all the time. consciously and uneon-
seiously- Professor H. w. Wiley. who
has charge Of the boarding house."
is recognized as an authority on food
substances and their effect and he may
be depended upon to conduct the matter
through in sane and reasonable man
ner.
At any rate, the boarding house"
will occupy place in the public mind
as long as it continues in existence and
Professor Wiley's reports thereon are
sure to be widely read and commented
on.

AN UNFAIR FIGHT.

A n EASTERN NEWSPAPER which
a is famous, or infamous. for its un-
compromising hostility to union labor
printed few days ago a circumstan-
tial story related by ]. H. Null, one
of the assistant managers of the Cramp
shipyards. Before the senate commit
tee on labor and education, Null de-
clared that members of the Interna-
tional Machinists' association, while
the Spanish war was in progress, at
tempted to disable the battleship. Ala
bama and the transport Thomas.
Null told his story with a faithful>
ness to detail which led those who
heard him to believe he was telling the
truth. He gave the committee the i'm
preston that American citizens, sim
ply because they could not secure high
er wages and shorter hours from the
Cramps, deliberately tried to cripple 4
naval lighting machine and a trans
port so as to render them helpless in
case they met the hostile nation S
forces.
Naturally the tale aroused great in
dignation and the anti-labor newspaper
gleefully seized upon it as another in
stance of the criminal instincts of la
Dor unions. Now, as a matter of fact,
if the records of the navy department
may be believed, nothing Of the kind
happened at any time. Further, no at
tempt could have been made to cripple
the Alabama during the war with
Spain for the very good reason that the
fro OF h.
take place until late in the summer of
1899. The trial trip of the Alabama
was made in September of that year,
which was more than a year after the
close of the Spanish war, and at a time
when this nation could not have had
pressing need for a battIeship.
The allegation with reference to the
Thomas is equally unfOunded because
at the time the Alabama was tried, the
Thomas was in the Cramps yards
awaiting repairs. All this comes from
the records of the navy department,
and IT'S accuracy may be depended
upon. Nor is there any record, in the
navy department or elsewhere, if We
exclude the imagination of Null, of any
complaint made by the Cramps to the
department about the ofrense which is
now charged against union workmen.
The truth of the business probably is
that Null expected his statements to go
unchallenged, and if they had, they
would have carried great weight. The
senate committee is now considering
bill making it unlawful for government
contractors to employ workers for a
greater period than eight hours day.
The Cramps are fighting the measure,
and if the Null story may be taken as
a fair example, their methods are at
least ouestionab BILE

A 5RIcKLAYINe MACHINE.

A MER1CA USUALLY LEADS the
"A world when it comes to inventins
Iabor-saving machines, but an English
man has beaten his Yankee competitors
in at least one instance. John II. knight
of Barfield, England. is the inventor OF
a bricklaying machine which, if he
makes his claims good, viii do the work
of several bricklayers at a considerably
reduced expense.
IT is said that the Knight machine is
capable of laying 600 bricks an hour at
almost any kind of work. The average
blicklayer lays about $50 bricks an
hour, or, in round numbers, 1,2OO in a
day of eight hours. The knight ma
chine requires two men and a boy to
operate it. One man spreads the NOR
tar, the second operates the machine
and the boy feeds the bricks into it.
Thus the work Of four bricklayers is
done by two men and a boy. The saw
ing is really better than this would in
dictate. for in hand bricklaying mortar
mixers are always necessary. And as
the machine is further perfected its
speed may be expected to increase until
it win do the work Of six or seven
knights of the trowel.
However, the bricklayers need not be
thrown into panic at the reports OF
this invention. When the typesetting
machine was first invented there was
panic among the old-time compos-
TORS 1t was predicted that thousands
Of them would soon be tramping
through the country in a vain search
for work. For a time the prediction
was, IN a measure fulfilled, but wage
scales were adjusted, new newspapers
and printing offices started. and today
a good linotype operator can find
steady work at remunerative wages
the year round
The same thing win occur IN the
oricklaying trade. The introduction of
the machine win serve simply TO make
building cheaper, and therefore. to slim
ulate it. Wage scales viii be adjusted
and soon the men who have learned to
operate the machine viii be making
more money than they are making to-
day. The Herald does not believe any
iabor-saving invention has ever per
manently impaired the laborer's ability
TO earn a livelihood
