Child Labor LAWS.

A New York judge has decided that
the law recently passed in that state
restricting the labor Of women and
children TO ten hours a day and sixty
a week in q factory, Is IAN unwarrant-
able invasion OF constitutional rights,
besides being class legislation In
his definition OF the right to sell Ia
Dor. the judge said:
1T may be stated as a well-settiec
legal proposition that the right 70 IA
Dor and contract for that labor IS sosh
a liberty and d property right; whea,
therefore, the Legislature enacts e
statute such as that under cocsl1@T-
alton. it must BE- admitted that il has
infringed in the enactment, tie rights
which are very clea-,- accorded ny
the constitution 10 the individual CT
izen. Tie people. therefore, are call
ed upon to justify this invasion. and
there is but one plea il justification
that the statute was enacted 20 ~-0.>t

ed and the right OF tne employer a!p
equally involved. Mating to tho c1r-
trarv appearing, il mUst Be assumed
that the woman was I wIing "o-Ic"
for g willing employer, and that he

90 into Z defence q lis decifson. ard
asks: Does the state lock merely 70
the children IF the factory w"~lcn ~
its future good citizens? WHY should
not the housewife, the n who

mandatory. for the same reason :
Some of them may be mothers OF III
ture citizens, ami il should be OF as
great interest TO The state that their
progeny should have proper birth
breeding to conserve its welfare.
This is an altogether original view OF
child labor legislation. II this Judge 5
decision on the point Of its invasion or
constitutional rights is upheld, the re
suit will be Of importance to the re-
tire country and may have a far-r2ach-
ing effect in shaping cllfJf laws.
Are the railroads backing Bryan?
That is the intimation which co'nes
out OF the west and It rises from the
fact that roads have offered rates to
New York for the reception, OF n
fare, pfas 50. Dewey is the only 9th
er, person il the United States who
has beer similarly honored. The rail
road men are said to be trying to fig
ure out the political significance, If
there is any. In view of the 0pen
hostility OF a number Of the traffic
men to tile present administration it
is said there is plenty Of ro3M for
conjecture.-Charlotte Chronicle.

Bryan's EuIOgy of Tom johnson.

Mr.. Bryan is very much pleased at
the selection Of Mr.. Tom L. Johnson
to preside at the reception in Madison
Square Garden. The Peerless stopped
at Barney Castle and kissed the ia
nous stone, then he wrote a letter to
the New York committee which has
lust been received. In expressing his
pleasure at the selection Of Mr.. John
son as presiding officer, Mr.. Bryan
says: "Mr. Johnson is a unique fig
ure. He stopped mnney-making in
the very prime Of life. and at great
pecun;ary sacrifice gave himself I'M
r~eservedly to public affairs. In the
face of all the abuse that ~entrenchPd
wrong-doers could heap upon him he
has been performing a great civic
duty. and I am hoping that his splen-
did example will inspirit nan other
rich men to put a limit to their at
cumulations and devote their lives TO
the welfare of their fellows. There
are many good friends whom [ would
have gladly seen chosen for that place.
but at this time when there are 50
many signs of ethical awakening
anon our business men. his selection
was especially appropriate" Mr.. Bry-
an also expresses his entire sat1Aac-
