Thc EOrtN- Eight Hour law.

The-State of Maine has declined to
pass a forty-eight hour law several
times in the legislature or even sub
NIT it to the voters in referendum.
IT so declined in the legislature that
met last winter at Augusta. The
present fifty-four-h law, similar
to that of Rhode Island, Connecticut,
New Hampshire, and in many other
industrial states, has been in
operation in Maine only eight years.
The referendum on the law for
forty-eight hours was forced by the
Initiative" so-called, that compels
the governor TO call an election when
1000 people sign a petition to that
effect. This petition, circulated I'M
der the auspices of the American
Federation of Labor, has brought
about this referendum. New Hamp-
shire and Rhode Island declined last
winter to enact forty-eight hour
laws The reasons were that it
would jeopardize the chief industries
of those states that are already being
curtailed by competition of the
South.
Only one northern state, Massa
chusetts, has a forty-eight hour law.
Five Boston textile mills closed their
business in Massachusetts August 23,
and gave up the ghost.
1t has been openly announced by
the American Federation Of Labor
that it will not be satisfied with q
forty -eight-hour week. Its goal is
forty-four hours a week.
About 1000 people are employed
in Maine es-one-seventh of
the population. If there are 5000
families in Maine and two repre-
sentatives of each family in the in
dustries are concerned, then $4,000
families. or one-third of Maine, is
concerned in this change.
The manufacturers say that if pro-
ductive hours are cut six hours a
week, or II per cent, then wages
must be cut; for under competition
such as it is, machines are speeded
to their limit, and the latest auto
matte machinery is being used
Nothing more can be done.
The referendum comes October IS.
The ballot will read so that a mo"
vote Will be against enactment of
such a law.

The clock fund is crawling toward
the $500 mark. The past weeks
contributions, aggregating $74, are
just SO short of the high-week
mark of $50, but are second only to
that week.
We are still hearing from our out
of-town friends. These little contri
buttons from them remind Ellsworth
friends that they are still Of us, even
if not now counted with us. They
are still interested in the old home
town, and reading down the list Of
names now brings many pleasant re-
minders of former days.
A pleasing contribution this week
is that from the Tracy Quick Lunch
Restaurant, which sends in $12-$1
from each member of the family,
employees, and from a few patrons
who have contributed through this
source.
Another good contribution comes
from Mrs. Hamblin and Miss Ems
worth, the artists who gave a recital
at the home of Mrs. H. M. Hall Mon
day evening. These generous strang
ers to Ellsworth not only donated
a percentage of the proceeds of the
recital to the clock fund, but each
added a personal contribution of 81,
making SO in all.
Another joint contribution is that
from a few employees of one depart
ment in the Carroll Felt Shoe Co..
who sent 50. This is the kind of
work that will boost the clock fund
to success. Let's take it over the
$500 mark the coming week.
If any contributor finds his or her
name omitted from the list printed
above or in list of previous contrib
utors, we would appreciate it if our
attention is called to it. We do not
wish to omit any name, but in han
ding so many, that is possible. AS
a matter of fact, our reason for say
ing this is that we have this week on
final count $74, while the list below
accounts for only $73. Whose name
has been omitted?

Prize Fighting, or Boxing.

The celebrated Mr.. Dempsey has
been knocked through the ropes by
the Bull of the Pampas," but he has
come back and knocked out the
ambitious Argentinian, and still re-
mains the worlds champion brulser'
II the newspapers do not misrepre-
sent him, he looks the part.
1t was apparently a real fight,
Even the sporting pages have ceased
the cant about the manly art, and
frankly represent the affair as a mat
ter of elemental savagery The
whole business is wrong. 1t is amaz-
ing how, after being outlawed in al
most every state until it became we'll
nigh impossible to stage a prize
fight, the sordid and brutal thing has
come back under the guise of box
ing"
AS a sport-that is, as real play
boxing has much to commend it, but
as a business in sheer prize-fighting
| it is a survival of barbarism and an
offence against public decency. The
elements of grit, stamina, skill and
comeback cannot justify their eX'
emplification in something wholly
useless and degrading,
1t is not the matter of the mere
brutality of the actual fight, or OF

lack of coal can cripple whole ma

lesson that is eventually meted out to

by II. Fremont Maddocks of North
Ellsworth in favor of the 48-hour

Mr.. Maddocks, believing that the en-

be detrimental to Maine industries.
we observe the policy of The
American in opening its news col
umns to a free discussion of political
and public affairs, so long as the
writer's keep within temperate
bounds and avoid personalities and
mud-slinging. Mr.. Maddocks has
certainly done this, and his article
is worthy of consideration.

Advocates Of public ownership
schemes use as one of their strong
est arguments, the statement that
states. counties or cities can borrow
money cheaper than private COM
panies because their bonds are tax
exempt" In addition public
property pays no taxes. To put it
another way. as public ownership is
extended, Inc tax assessment roll
shrinks and the burden of taxation
on remaining taxable property grows
heavier and heavier. Ultimately, the
principal business of those holding
office would be to collect tax revenue
from those not holding Office in order
to meet the public payroll.

Massachusetts The proposition to

lie danger. With Boston municipal
employees once unionized, the other
cities of our country would have fol

courage not common among states
men. He called a halt, Speaking
for the farmer and smaller property
owners. he asserted the principle of
no divided allegiances in the public
service. Police, firemen and public
school teachers could not take orders
from President Gompers and the A.

the public service.

It is by such efforts as these, combined with generous personal gifts. that the nurses home fund has passed over the 50 per cent mark of the Sl0,000 necessary. More such affairs given throughout the spring and the sum- mer will undoubtedly bring the fund to a successful total.
 Mr. and Mrs. van der Laan are to be congratulated on the success of their evening, and they are the reelpi- ents of much deep appreciation from those who hold the interests of the hospital very close at heart.
