BOSTON, Feb. 15.-The richest
man in New England, Governor
Eugene n. Foss of Massachusetts,,

are considering bill prohibiting

dries and iron manufactures of

molders' union shows that 700
women in Massachusetts, which
state prides itself on ITS culture
and laws for the protection of the
people, are running their health
in foundries by work which short
ems the lives of big, strong men.
After several months of inquiry
.O'Leary laid the facts before Gov
ernor Foss, a big stockholder in
the textile mills at Lawrence,
where the operatives are now on
strike because they found the cost
of living overbalanced their in
come. O'Leary said:
81 have seen women In the
foundries in your state, the sup
posed home of culture, scantilly
and improperly clad, hauling wag-
ons past the metal ovens. The
heat was so sitting that it was
almost impossible for them to
breathe. The arms and Shout
ders of the women were barred,
their garments thrown back at the
neck. and their persons exposed.
The work is entirely too much for
them"

From Current Literature.
 Will the name of Thomas Love Pea cock be rescued from oblivion and placed among those of the great satirists of the world? This is the problem that now seems to be presented to worshipers of the Comic Spirit-to the disciples of Aris- tophanes, Rebelais. Moliere, La Roche foucalde, Montague, Cervantes, Fielding, and of the lesser deities like Anatole France, Mark Twain, Samuel Butler, or even MT. Bernard Shaw. Though he was one of the closest friends of Shelley and had lived for years in intimate daily con tact with the philosophical radicals of the early 18th century Goodwin, Bentham and Malthus among others), and though he was the father-in-law of George Mere dith, he seems to have cut himself off intellectually from his own contempora- ries and to have remained mere name to nine out of ten readers for nearly half century after his death.

The next step will be to calculate how many hogsheads of altar of roses might be made from the flower leaves and what 1t would sell for at $50 or s60 an ounce. Altar of roses Is worth good deal more than it's weight in gold when it is properly made. Why should not Oregon build up great in- dustry on the beauty of its roses? Other crops fail now and then. Some years there are but few cherries. Occasionally something hapens to the apples. But the roses bloom as faithfully as spring re- turns and the harvest we might have if they were gathered and utilized would be unfajEng.
