lily, poor Queen Bess is even at this
day entitled to the sympathy of the
opulent wage Garner. So much for
Secretary Wilson's remarkable com
parison. Now, let's see what Queen
Elizabeth did to improve the condi-
ton of the poor.
1t was during her reign that the
first poor law was passed~in England.
Each parish was required to provide
for those unable to- work, relieving
the distress which had prevailed dur
ing the two previous reigns. She also
the currency, and in other
ways did good service for her people
and, her country.
1t is a far cry from the days of
-"good Queen Bess'' to the present,
and our statesmen might well give
some thought to bhe problems now
confronting the working people of
this country, before it becomes indeed
a commonwealth of common woe"
A crisis in the affairs of the re
public, if not here, is only short
time hence. Provision must be made
for people who are willing to work to
live and keep their families from
want and misery. Nothing SO fires
the devil in man as to know that his
loved ones are suffering for the neces-
stiles of life, and unless there is a
readjustment of things and an
ameIioration of conditions, no telling
what the future will bring forth.
Let US hope that the problem will
be settled amicably--we want, no
French revolution in America.

the situation to the poorly paid wage

of prominent business man who
visited The Majority Office recently.
This gentleman is at the head of, a
large manufacturing establishment
and is known for his liberality to his
employees and the broadness of his
views on all subjects, and while glanc-
ing at a copy of The Majority, a
headline reading Meat Three Times

was an article taking issue with the
statement of Secretary of Agriculture
Wilson that the average laborer is
living better than. Queen Elizabeth
did in her time, and that the laborers
in Washington were eating meat three
times a day.
The gentleman referred to above,
after a moments thought, remarked
to the editor: Meat three times
day! Well, if it gets any higher than
at present it will be out of reach of
my family. I do not know what to
think of the situation. The prices
