The supreme court of the United States, in a recent decision upholding the legality of the eight-hour work day law, declares that the states can justifiably protect, by proper legisla tion, in the exercise of its nolice power, grown men, even, when reck lessly unobservant of their own wel fare, says the Union Guide. And this, the most powerful court on earth, solemnly declares th at it is true that oft-times the employer and his em ployes are on an unequal footing; that the employer has a great advantage over the employe, which is too fre quently harshly exercised, and that the state can recognize such condi tions of inequality and provide against them. The following is the decision as given in the case of Holden vs. Hardy, sherifT, 18 Supreme Court Reporter, page 18: "The legislature has also recognized the fact, which the experience of leg islatures in many states has corrobo rated, th at the proprietors of these es tablishm ents and their operatives do not stand upon an equality, and that their interests are, to a certain extent, conflicting. The former naturally de sire to obtain as much labor as possi ble from their employes, while the la t ter are often induced by the fear of discharge to conform to regulations which their judgment, fairly exercised, would pronounce to be detrim ental to their health or strength. In other words, the proprietors lay down the rules, and the laborers are practically constrained to obey them. In such cases self-interest is often an unsafe guide, and the legislature may properly interpose its authority. It may not be improper to suggest in this connection th at although the pros ecution in this case was against the employer of labor, who apparently, under the statute, is the only one lia ble, his defense is not so much that his right to contract has been in fringed upon, but that the act works a peculiar hardship to his employes whose right to labor as long as they choose is alleged to be thereby vio lated, The argument would certainly come with better grace and greater co gency from the latter class. But the fact th at both parties are of full age and competent to contract does not necessarily deprive the state of the power to interfere, where the parties do not stand upon an equality, or where the public health demands that one party to the contract shall be pro tected against himself. The state still retains an interest in his welfare, how ever reckless he may 'be. The whole is no greater than the sum of all the parts, and when the individual health, safety and welfare are sacrificed or neglected the state must suffer.” ARE THEY HUMAN BEINGS? Children from eight to nine years of age work in the mills of North Car olina from six at night to six in the morning for the princely sum of 10 cents a night. These mills pay a reg ular dividend of 10 per cent to the stockholders. Are the owners of these mills human beings? Fancy enjoyirg the luxuries of life at the expense of the labor of little children in the long hours of the night! The Chinese don’t need missionaries half as badly as do the cotton-mill operators of the South. If they can’t be reached by The gospel, more effective measures should be adopted, for such barbarities are a dis grace to the state and nation. It is not unlikely the plea will be made that these operators are public benefactors, inasmuch as they keep the little ones out of mischief by furnishing employ ment at the munificent wages noted.— Typographical Journal. W hether or not it was more than we could consume, the exporting of what we did not consume for the past ten months amounted to over one billion of dollars.
