mine owners resisted with all the In
fuence at their command the meagre
restrictive legislation which was at
tempted to meet and correct these
conditions. Yet the fact that great
states Of the American union today
have been willing to 60 no further
than to fix the age limit for mill Ia
Dor at IL and 13 years, and the exist
ence of great industries which con.
tinue to employ children on the pre-
tense Of economic necessity, furnish
irrefutable justification for the move
ment which the National Child Labor
Committee represents.
The day is or should be passed when
there is need for argument against
the evil and the needlessness of child
labor. Experience has proved the lat
ter to the satisfaction of economists.
The utilization of children in mill
work not only reduces the Opportun-
tiles and rewards of adult labor, but
it retards the inventive faculty. In
the vast majority of cases it has been
demonstrated that the labor now still
done by children can be performed
by machinery, and at less expense.
| And this leaves out of consideration
altogether the tremendous ills of pre-
mature employment and the deterior-
alton of the race that must newt
ably result from the stunting of the
child's growth and the deprivation of
health and education which are insep-
arabic attendants of the system.
The needs of the hour are not only
better laws; but such an education of
the public that the laws we have shall
be enforced. Restrictive legislation
as to night employment Of children
and as to age limit and school at
tendance is worse than useless If il
Is ignored. The inscription on stat.
ute of an ideal law is but the begin
ming of the work OF reformation
which at the best will be slow and
laborious.
i = 1neoaootaAg to observe that tht
same obstacles are interposed to the
progress Of the present day move
ment as were encountered by the re
formers Of the middle Of the last cen
tury. A mistaken humanitarianisn
may find in exceptional instances {
defense of child labor in the necessi
ties of parents, but the remedy her,
should be applied in the right an,
not the wrong way. Moreover, com
petition is not so tyrannical maste
of the destinies of man that it mus
be allowed to cheaper everything II
the limit of squalor and uncleanness
Cheap labor is not the only recourse
; better quality will gain in the lon
run, and that will not be attained b.
the lower but by the higher method
of workmanship. So also the argr
ment that is heard that the childre
who are employed in mills and mines
in glass factories and the like, ar
worthy of no better fate-are not cal
able Of elevation through education
must be dismissed as unworthy G
the age in which we live and of tn

ST. PAUL'S BIG TUNNEL.
Eight Hours on Montana Side, Ten
Idaho.

Idaho.
Wallace, Idaho, Dec. 27.-An odd
situation arises in connection with the
driving of the tunnel for the Chicago,
Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad to con-
meet the states of Idaho and Montana.
An eight-hour law has been passed in
Montana, but none exists in Idaho. In
consequence the men working on the
Montana side are required to work
only eight hour shifts while those on
the Idaho side work 10 hours. In ad-
dition the men on the Montana side
are paid $3.50 day, while those on
the Idaho side only receive 50 for 10
hours work.
The question arises as to what the
result will be if the Idaho men pene-
;trate first into Montana, or If the
Montana men penetrate first into
Idaho, or will both sides be required
to quit as soon as the exact boundary
line has been reached? It is expected
that some peculiar questions will arise
in connection with the work.
About $50 men are at work on the
Montana side and also number OF
surveying crews. An open cut OF about
80 feet in extent has been started and
this is to be dug out by means of a
steam shovel, which will be installed
later.
1t is reported that some good look
ing ore has already been exposed, and
prospectors and miners who know the
country well state that at least three
large ore bodies will be tapped as
the tunnel progresses. All the adjacen
mineral land has been acquired by thu
railroad company, but it is not known
whether any action will be taken witt
regard to mining The location of the
ore bodies, together with the wagor
road that has been built over tn,
mountains, will be of the greatest ben
eft to miners and prospectOrs.
