THE CHILD LABOR EVIL.

In another column OF the Intelli.
gencer appears communication
from the West Virginia child labor
committee, commencing the attitude
of DIR. II. ID. Hatfield on the question
OF child labor legislation. The COM
munication is of special interest be-
cause DR.. Hatfield's pronounced atti-
tude on this question seems TO have
aroused some criticism. AS a physi.
clan of standing. and as a public
spirited citizen interested in the
health and welfare of the people, DIR.
Hatfield has taken somewhat ad.
vanced position concerning the en-
ployment OF young children in mines
and factories. This is hardly ground
for criticism on the part OF good
citizens.
A great part of the labor move
ment in the United States has been
directed toward the gradual abolition
OF child labor. That community is
the healthiest and in the end the
weslthiest. that is best able to keep
its growing children in the public
schools. to give them opportunities
for healthful play, and to relieve
their young bodies and young minds
from the crushing and deadly burden
OF long hours, OF hard routine work
amid unhealthy surroundings. Our
industrial organization under present
conditions unfortunately requires the
labor OF girls and boys in many kind:
OF factory work, but the lessening oi
this kind OF labor is something thai
every civilized and ciiristianized com
munity should seek to bring about.

Condemned Minister Subjected to

lily Experts

Boston, Mass, May 12.-ThC
board of insanity experts, selected
by Gov Foss TO examine the mental
condition Of Clarence V 7. Ricne-
son. under sentence of death for the
murder Of Avis Linnell, today sub.
iected Ricneson 10 the most eXhaus'
tive tests known, Their eXamina
ton occupied almost the entire day.
II doubtless was the most critical
period for the prisoner, since he re-
ceived his death sentence early in
January.
Richeson showed no trace of ner-
vousness as he walked from his cell
10 the sheriff's house and at the
completion OF the long days ordeal
apparently was in excellent condi-
ton. The work of examination con-
tinu-d without interruption from
9:30 a. m. until - p m, when
Wicheson was taken back to his cell,
where he partook heartily OF the
special food, which is sent him daily
from a restaurant outside
Did Not Tire.
Richeson apparently was bearing
himself well aud showed no fatigue.
Tbout o'clock he was taken to the
sheriff's Office and the aienists
.sain took up their work. The sec
ond session lasted until $50 o'clock.
At its conclusion Richeson bade the
visitors good afternoon and was re-
turned to his cell 1t is believed
that the alienists completed their
examination today and it is expected
that their report will be ready for
the Governor sometime before the
meeting OF executive council We'd
nesday.
Governor IS PoWerIesS.
At that time the Governor can
ask his council to commute the
sentence OF Richeson TO life impris-
9nment. if the alienists report that
the prisoner WIS insane at the time
he committed the crime ii they
report that he was s=ue then, bu,
that he is insane at present, the Gov
arnor can only ask that the council
ant a reprieye until such time a,
the prisoner is sane, at which time
he must be executed In any event
She Governor has no voice in what.
ever action the council takes.
II the council declines to tae any
action on Wednesday, Richeson will
NJ once be removed to the Charles
ton state prison. there to await il
the death CELL the execution of tn,
sentence the law placed against him
which is that he be electrocutet
during the week of May 10.
