DO You Hear
The Cry Of
The Children?"

AHORE than fifty years ago Eli
| MI abeth Barrett Browning wrote
ESSSM some verses headed Have
49, You Heard the Cry of the
Chlldren?" 1t was an arraignment OF
the child factory labor system then
prevalent in Great Britain, an arraign-
ment so terrible that one who read II
once never forgot it, and one who wish
ed to keep disturbing pictures out of his
mind never read it again. In America
those who read the poem shuddered
and blessed themselves that here at
least in this land there were no hap
less, dwarfed child victims of uncivi-
lied industrialism.
While they slept and blessed them
selves there grew around them in their
own land, under their own eyes. a sys-
tenn OF child slavery as body and soul
destroying as any that ever blotted the
record Of civilization in old England.
In New York and in the manufacture
ing centers Of New Jersey official sta
tistics show that, owing to child labor,
illiteracy among children under four
teen has increased in q marked degree
in the past twenty years-that is, with
all the free Libraries, with the palatial
schoolhouses built in the east in the
past ten years, there is now a larger
number of ignorant children under
fourteen than there was twenty years
ago. What are free books to those who
have no time to read them? What are
palatial schoolhouses to little girls I'M
der fourteen who work all night in a
factory?
Have you heard the cry of the chill
dren in Pennsylvania, where the little
ones tend silk looms in the coal re-
gions? Silk is cheap now The United
States coal commission has found that
In the anthracite region in two coun-
ties alone 1000 girls under sixteen
work in the silk mills. 1t seems unbe-
lievable that 400 to 500 of these are on
the night shift, that they stay out of
bed and work twelve night hours week
after week.
There was one Slav girl, Helen Sis
cak, eleven years old, employed on this
The Weiser signal. [volume] (Weiser, Idaho) 1890-1904, 1903-02-28

night shift Her mother, yet young
woman, had borne eleven children, then
was sent to an insane asylum, and no
wonder. Deprived of her care, six of
the eleven died in one year, which must
have been happy release for them.
The father was left with his five young
ones, and Helen had to work twelve
hours at night in the mill to help sup
port them.
When solid residents of that part of
the state found it out they held up
their hands and exclaimed:
Great heavens! We knew nothing
of this"
Just so. Nine-tenths of the people
of the United States are in ignorance
Of the awful facts. Would you like to
have your eleven-year-olG daughter
work twelve hours in a factory at
night?
Now let us leave Pennsylvania and
20 to Chicago. A meeting was held
there not long since in connection with
the child labor problem. What the
state of things there is may be known
from the object of that meeting. II
was to take measures for preparing q
legislative bill to prevent the employ
ment Of children under the age of four
teen and to stop children's night work
In factories. Jane Adams, the soci-
ologist, found a mill in which $500
children toiled necessarily, and all but
sixty-six of these had fathers She
found hundreds Of parents who live
on their children's earnings-coin the
tender blood drop by drop into money
to support their own big, lazy bodies.
In some cases the ablebodied fathers
came daily at noon to bring the chill
dren's lunch-that by way of a little
walk for exercise. Facts show 1t to be
largely the fault Of unworthy parents
that these little creatures are forced 10
earn their blood pittance. The excuse
Of the unworthy parents is that chill
dren are better off thus cheated out OF
their childhood than they would be run
ming the streets. To this Miss Addams
answers:
81 would rather see children allowed
to run in the streets than to have them
|
working in factories at tender age
They would be stronger physically and
mentally. and I don't believe their
morals would be injured as they are py
confinement and toll in places where
they see nothing Of the better side OF
life"
