HOUSES FOR
RENT SCARCE
Not One Modern House Left and
Very Few Of Any kind-NIore
People to Come.

An appalling state of affairs is 60
ing to confront the renting popula-
! tion of the city of Wenatehee this
fall when all the people now camp
ing return to the city to their houses
for the winter" said prominent
real estate man yesterday.
Conditions this year are much
different than ever before" he said,
when the people left for the sum-
mer vacation this season they did
mt pack up their household goods
and put them in storage but retain
ed the house and paid rent during
the summer months in order to be
sure of a house in the fall. Every
one seems to appreciate the fact
that houses for rent are now scarce
in the city and that very few new
residences are under construction.
There has always been some diff
ficulty in the fall for everyone to get
house but the steady influx of
people into Wenatchee during the
present summer and the many that
are due to arrive during the fall AMI
early winter months will make mat
ters worse than ever before.
"At present there are no vacant
modern houses for rent III the city
and but few of any description.
Another real estate dealer is au-
thority for the statement that there
are more calls for houses now than
ever before at this season of the year
in the history of the city. There
will be more people come into the
city this fall than ever before" he
said.
We could stand for the growth
of the city if we could make accom-
mOdations for it, but capital will not
invest in residences. l believe it is
due to the desire to speculate rather
than to invest. Such great sums
have been made in speculation in
fruit lands and in business property
that most people who have money
prefer to place it az lorg odds rath-
er than to put lit into rentable
houses. ------.-7-

The city council has called a spec
ial election to be held September
to vote on the question of issuing
bonds to the amount of $4,000 for
the purpose of erecting fire hall,
iail and city hall on the lots owned
by the city on Mission street.
The council believes that it will
be matter of business economy to
-erect a building of this kind at this
time. Twenty-year bonds at five per
cent can be secured. The interest
on the bonds at the present time will
be but little in excess OF what Is
now paid out for rent and other ex-
penses which in case of the erection
of proper building would not be
needed. At the end of twenty
years when the bonds would be due
the taking up OF the bonds would
be small matter.
The registration books will be
open till ten days before election.

Lord. help me mount So abundant
and vigorous was the heavenly aid
vouchsafed that he not only reached

Facts About Child Labor.

DR.. A. S. Daniel, of the New York
Infirmary for Women and Children,
has dug up some facts about child
labor that make mans blood boil.
In the New York sweatshops he has
seen children required to sew on but
tons at the age of three and to hem
trousers at the age of six He as
serts that he found an eighteen
monthsAold baby earning fifty cents a
week; the baby was sick, but it's
mother wouldn't let it be taken to the
hospital, as she needed the money"
DR.. Daniel reports that children Of
three and four years work with their
parents, the elder children, and pos
sibly dodgers in the tenement work
room. Children of six stitch the
hens of trousers, and those of three
or four, when not sewing on buttons,
pull out the basting threads.
1These little ones. in artificial
flower making, put the strings
through the petals and leaves, do the
FASTING of boxes, and put the paper
over the rough cardboard. Then. too.
they press tobacco leaves, generally
standing up to do it, and this work
they do for hours at a time. The
child labor laws do not protect these
children, as they are not employed in
shops or factories. Tenements are
supposed to have labor license, but
it would require an inspector at the
entrance and on the roof of every ten
ement to prevent work going on in
unlicensed tenements. The only REM
edy is absolute prohibition of any but
factory work.
This damnable outrage defies the
utmost resources of imprecation. It
lifts Hoods Song of a Shirt" to the
rank of a lyric. It makes Victor
Hugo chapter about the Thenardiers
and little Cosette a dainty pastel In
prose. Nothing that was ever written
compares for grim horror with those
awful sentences, SO artlessly put forth
by Mr.. Daniel, and IL New York
hasn't manhood enough left In It to
put stop to this crime against child
hood, 1t doesn't belong Ia America. -

Bishop Potfer on Women.

The Right Reverend Henry G. Pot
ter, Bishop Of New York, lis writing
Tor Harper's Bazaar remarkable
series OF papers on womcn-their
recreations, their progress, and the
rest. Concerning the progress of
women, Bishop Potter says:
In a word, no more tremendous
cnange has come to pass in the last
half-century than that which has oc-
CURED in the realm of woman. That
cnange has not, of course, been SO
great In Western as in Eastern lands:
for, in the former, those great ideas
which had been at work, as in Eng
land, from the times of King John
and the barons, have produced their
appropriate. results in the emancipa-
ton not alone of men, but also of
women. But whether in Europe or
America, two forces have been at
work in connection with the status
OF women, one of them progressive,
and the other conservative-one of
them demanding for both sexes equal
rights and privileges, and the other
appealing to the Bible for the Scrip
tural warrant for regarding woman
as an inferior and for keeping her in
bondage. A Chinaman, when remon-
strated with for holding the women
of his house fast bound to the ancient
custom of deformed feet, replied, MY
wife can't walk, and so she stay at
home and even an Apostle, in recit-
Ing, as becoming in woman, graces
which he accounted as pre-eminently
praiseworthy, brackets with some of
chiefest value the words keepers at
home
in other words, it is undeniable
that half a century ago the ideal
woman was domesticity; and the vir-
tues which find their fittest sphere in
the retirement of the home were ac-
counted of pre-eminent value. But
all that is changed, and it can never
be forgotten (and pray Heaven that
1t never may be!) that such services
as Dorothea Dix and Florence Night
lngale and Sister Dora and their kind
have illustrated were not rendered by
staying at home.
