LESS WORK

Strenuous: Life Don't Appeal
To Working Men.

unremitting toll. In other words. if
you would enjoy the fullness of life,
work yourself to death. President
Roosevelt has been applauded from
one end of the country to the other
tor promulgating that doctrine, and
no social economist of note has had
the courage or the candor to ques-
ton its divinity; yet, in his heart,
every thoughtful man knows that
the doctrine of strenuosity is antag.
onlst1c to his nature, irrational in
principle and vicious in tendency.
1t is destructive of the common
hope and aspiration of civilized and
unciviliZed man, and s1bversive of
the well being of the social body.
1t proposes universal human ,sacri-
fee on the altar of worldly ambition
and carnal lust. 1t augments the
original curse by declaring, not only
that in the sweat of their faces shall
men earn bread, but the more they
are made to sweat the better for
them. This doctrine fits into the
purposes of greedy and overbea ring
employers, exactly. 1t is the thing
which lust, ages ago, reduced to
practice. 1t was, no doubt, the
beautiful doctrine of strenuosity that
inspired and perfected the English
factory system from 1880 to 1890
when children six years of age,
were let out in gangs by parish au-
thorities to manufacturers who con-
fined them in the mill from fourteen
to sixteen hours a day; when ap-
prentices were sent, without remorse
or inquiry, TO be fused up as the
cheapest raw material in the market;
when mill-owners and overseers of
the poor conspired to traffic in the
flesh and blood of little children,
and, as related by faithful chron-
ic1er: "On their (the childrens)
arrival at Manchester, or other
towns, if not previously assigned,
they were deposited in dark cellars,
where the merchant dealing in them
brought his customers, who, by

Mr.. Bray's bid. AS the matter
stands it would seem that the Dis
trict's interest has been we II pro
tected. The yardage of this par
ticular section is between IS and 66
thousand. The entire yardage
awarded Mr.. Carter is, approx.
mately 1I7,ooo yards earth, 1000
yards loose rock and 5000 yards
solid rock, amounting to about $1e,-
800.
The Bissett, Marsh and Reeser
contract is on the basis of I2H
cents per cubic yard for earth, loose
rock 27, hardpan 27, covers $4,000
yards earth and 1000 yards hardpan
and loose rock and amounts to ap~
proximately $500. Metcalf and
Nicholas get 1917 cents for earth
and IS cents for loose rock and hard
pan for their section covering 1000
yards of earth and 5000 yards loose
rock and hard pan, amounting to
approximately $3.50.
Faris and Kesl have still to COM
plete the sidehill sections of the
Phyllis and the Caldwell High Line
and will, it is understand go to
work at once. Mr.. Carter will put
on a big force of men next Monday.
Under reasonably favorable condi-
tions, the entire work of all con-
tractors should be completed before
the first of January. This will give
the Pioneer Irrigation Distrist the
best irrigation system in Idaho or
anywhere else.

Under the present order Of affairs
there is no attempt to abate labor
during the years when the body is
strong and the mind active. On
the other hand, the tendency and
common practice is to turn every
ounce Of vitality to account as sn
investment upon which to realize
future repose. We know, as mat
ter of experience, that men seldom
or never realize on such an invest
ment of vital forces. When the
time for realization arrives, habits
have been formed, or obligations
assumed which render repose hate
fuf or impossible; or the human
machine has succumbed to disease
and lpgers only to be racked with
pain and melancholy reflections. It
must be admitted that strenuousity,
considered as laboring mans in
vestment, yields to the investor
nothing but pain, disappointment,
and futile regrets. We should,
therefore, discard the notion that
excessive work at the present time
promises gentle repose in the future,
and cleave to the better plan OF cas-
ing the daily burden until it ceases
to be irksome, thus enjoying reas-
onable repose as we pass along life's
highway. 1t may be objected that
this would lead to utter idleness.
1t is quite conceivable that if car
ried to its ultimate logical ,concIu-
sion such would be the result, but
it we follow the idea of strenuosity
to the same lengths, we inevitably
arrive at death through cruelty, and
the last extreme is worse than the
first. What we are seeking is a
condition which will fairly satisfy
the legitimate desires of mankind
at the present time. The progress
of industrial events during the past
century and half points to the
wisdom and justice of moving to-
ward an abatement of labor.
The general adoption of an eight
hour work day will be a long step
in the right direction. 1t will pro-
mote intelligence, morality and
happiness, in every walk of life.
1t will ameliorate many of the evils
of intense and unreasonable compe-
tition. It will give wider opportu-
nifty for that se1f-cu1ture, social in
tercourse, and family communion
so essential to the we'll being of
civilized people; and wherever it
has been established and fairly tried,
it has been productive of unmixed
good.

the light Of lanterns. being enabled
70 examine the children, their limbs
and stature having undergone the
necessary scrutiny, the bargain was
struck. In very many instances
tnelr labor was limited only BY ex-
naustion after many modes of tor
lure had been unavailingly applied
70 enforce continued action. IN
orlsk times their beds, such as they
were, were mea'e1 eooI, for the mills
were working day and night, and
as soon as one set of children rose
Tor labor, the other retired for rest"
children were harassed to the
brink of death by the excess of la.
Dor; in many cases they were
starved to the bone, while fogged
TO their work; and in some instances
they were driven to commit suicide"
The condition of adult operatives
was no better They began work
at six in the morning, continued
until eight, they were given a half
hour for breakfast, then worked
until twelve, then from one to seven,
in all about thirteen and one half
hours. Women and girls were sub
Jected to substantially the same
conditions.
This is a picture of strenuosity
that should delight the hearts, if
they have any, of the most enthu-
slastic disciples of the Strenuous
Life" and what was the result?
Moral, mental and physical degra-
dation; vice; ignorance, deformity.
Because Of the noble ambition
which lashes the spirit of men like
President Roosevelt, it may not be
in their hearts to ever hope for a
time of relief from the stress of
labor, but that hope is deeply i'm
bedded in the hearts of a vast ma
jority of their fellow countrymen.
1t is the cheering prospect of tu-
ture repose that spurs them on to
present exertion.
We are speaking of La6orImg men
and not of that class of men who,
when the spirit moves, comfortably
record the operations of their own
brains, chop down tree, or chase
a grizzly bear for relaxation. In
all history there is no record of a
hod carrier or a coal miner pro-
nouncing a panegyric on the beati-
tudes of the Strenuous Life"
Without further discussion, it
may be assumed that all laboring
men are agreed that an abatement
of toll is essential to the existence
of better state.

Humanity is engaged in con-
slant struggle to better its condition,
and, under the divine decree, through
labor alone is it possible to advance.
But has humanity, in general, any
clear conception of state of exist
ence that would be an improvement
on its present condition? If not, it
is beating about blindly and aim
lessly and should not even hope 10
accomplish its ends. If, on the
other hand, there is in human ma
ture common and clearly defined
conception, then the right thing to
do is to ascertain what that concep-
ton is and go to work to establish,
as nearly as may be, the ideal status.
We doubt if laboring men have
any we'll defined idea of a better
state of existence than they occupy
at the present time, except in one
particular, upon which there is al
most universal agreement, and which
is directly related to and indissoul-
IDLY connected with the labor ques-
ton, The point upon which there
is common agreement and clear
conception is that the present state
would be improved if the burden of
toll were made lighter. Laboring
men may and do widely differ on
all other matters affecting their well
fare, but upon this there is no diff
ference worth considering. Yet,
and it is a curious fact, the doctrine
preached by the dominant school of
social economists is Numerically
opposed to this almost universal
longing of humanity, and such is
the reverence for authority" that
an utterly discordant doctrine is
constantly upheld in argument
while clearly condemned by the
main fact of human experience.
Instance the "Strenuous Life"
doctrine of President Roosevelt.
Reduce it to simple terms and what
does it mean? Clearly, that the
perfect state is a condition which
condemns mankind to severe and
