is a sort of interstate traffic in de-
sorting husbands between New zea-
land ana Australia, which now also
has suffrage. They are shipped back,
sent to jail and made to work for
81 a day, which is paid to their fam
lilies. Not a girl under rs nor a boy
under i6 is at work in the whole
country. and there is a strong senti-
ment in favor of raising the working
ages to Is and 90 No boys are al
lowed on the streets selling news
papers or doing messenger service
after o'clock, the night work being
done by men.
There is not a beggar in the whole
country except a few blind men lay
ing organs. nor are there any UNI
employed. In fact the demand for
labor is rather serious and constant
supplies are being sent out from Eng
land. But our immigration Jaws are
very strict. The working people find
the islands a paradise, for charwom-
en- get from 50 to $3.50 a day and
factory hands work in beautiful light
buildings. There is an eight hour
day and quarter Of an hour off both
in the morning and afternoon, when
the men smoke and the girls make
tea in their clean and airy rest rooms.
"Of course We have compulsory
education and our schools are the

about politics as the men and grad

Idiots are no longer shut up in asy-
