MOSES AS A LABOR LEADER.

A speaker at the memorial
services held by the labor unions
at Louisville, Mo, says the Illinois
Iradesman, made the somewhat
unique claim that Moses was the
hrst and greatest leader of organ
lied labor. The view is an inter
esting one, and not without basis
in actual fact.
Apart from the religious aspect
OF the Exodus, it may well be call
ed the beginning of strikes. 1t
was the revolt of Israel against the
oppression of Egyptian bosses, and
1T was singularly effective. 1t tied
up many of the great puplic works
OF Pharaoh's devising, and left his
realm absolutely devoid of work
ing class.
The Louisville Herald, in com
menting on the idea, says: Labor
cannot very we'll follow in detail
the plan of Israel today. There
are many good reasons why such
wholesale immigration is imprac.
ticable. Its victorious must be
won in the land where its alleged
oppressors dwell, a disadvantage
that may make the fight more pro-
longed. But there is comfort to
be derived from Israel's success.
Nor is there today the same
cause for labor's revolt that exist
ed in the early era of Egyptian
bondage. Labor was then in alb.
solute slavery. The workingman
under Pharaoh was not even a
wage Garner. He had no method
of regulating the reward of his toll
or the hours of his employment.
He was whipped to his task, allot-
ted in measure beyond the limits
of human endurance, and his only
relief was death.
Both capital and labor have
travelled far since the days of
Moses. They have learned to I'M
derstand each other better. They
have found basis for adjustment
that makes life eaiSer for all
There are problems yet to be work
ed out, but we believe they will be
solved by process of mutual
concession, as the result of increas-
ing knowledge, rather than by
such extreme methods as were
necessary in the instance
from ancient Biblical history
to which reference has been made.
1t might be we'll, indeed, if bot h
capitalist and wage earners would
follow the interesting parallel
which the speaker suggested to the
point where Israel entered into
possession of the land. The econ
omic administration of Moses is
full of wise provisions that, how
ever unsuited to the complexities
OF modren society, contain basic
principles of eternal value. 1t
was the aim of his policies to pre-
vent poverty; "that there may be
no poor in the land" is repeatedly
given as the fundamental idea OF
the system Of taxation and proper
ty ownership which he inaugural
ed.
Some day we may all be wise
enough to apply these principles
to existing conditions. In the
meantime their earnest study may
be productive of much good to
| those who are earnestly seeking
the solution Of problems which
have grown with the growth of
civilization.

The Forests Of France.

France contains in all over 23.5OO.
900 acres Of wooded lands. The state
owns about 100000 acres which are
well guarded and taken care of, and
the various departments and COM
munes possess some 3,472,O0O acres of
forest which are not so well managed.
The remaining timber is owned BY
private interests. and often large
tracts are sold to spectators, who.
after cutting off the trees regardless
OF size, sell the land for grazing. Due
to this, resinous trees are fast disap-
pearfng, the ash and acacia can
scarcely be found, the poplar is be-
coming rare, and the chestnuts of
the mountains have nearly disap-
peared. Gaul, once the home OF the
great oak forests, now has to seek
other countries to furnish the neces-
sary supply of oak, and at present
France imports more than $1,000, 600
worth, inferior to that once grown.

to be in good condition all the time
or he Is liable to do harm to himself
and others.
A clear head is necessary to run a
locomotive or conduct a train. Even
a railroad mans appetite and diges-
ton are matters of Importance, as
the clear brain and steady hand re-
suit from the healthy appetite fol-
lowed by the proper digestion of food.

railroader, Il have been constantly

the time. To my great surprise it was
running and had only to be adjusted
to the right time to be as good az

that the pain of an aching tooth

1t seems particularly sad that a com
pany of innocent little children, celebrat-
ing the close of school with a picnic,
should suffer such unhappy results as
did a merry crowd of St. Johusbury boys
and girls. The two rooms on Maple
street, about IS children in all, had a
picnic when school closed and it has
since developed that the spring at the
end of Caledonia street from which they
drank must have been contaminated for
there are now II cases of typhoid fever
among the children who attended the
picnic. A few of the children were
violently i'll directly after the pic
mic, HUT soon recovered, and the
II cases of fever have been coming
down in succession for two or more
weeks. Two cases are in Canada, one in
Littleton and one was taken sick in
Portland and brought home. So far
only two cases have been severe, those of
George Asselin and Dow Farnham and
both are improving.
