Bryan’s Hopes and Prospects.
Despite this backset and handicap, it
is still clearly apparent that Mr. Bryan
has hopes. Who is there to deny him?

Citations by advocates of legislation
for the cure of tho evils of "child la
bor” from'Bullet in No. 69 of the L'nited
States Census Bureau of date Jan
uary 25. 1997. fail to emphasize the
fact That the gerot mass of informa
tion in tho bulletin is derived from
schedules of tiie 1900 census, taken
more than six years ago. They fail to
emphasize, if even to mention, the
statement by the Director of the Cen
sus. cautious as it is. as follows:.
"With the growth of population there
has probably been a considerable in
crease sine*' 1900 in the number of
children who tire working for wages,
except possibly in those communities
where new laws imposing greater ro-
strk tions upon the employment of
young hildren have been enacted and
are being efficiently enforced, but it is
unlikely that, aside from the increase
in numbers, a census taken at tho
h> I present time would show conditions
differing materially front those exist
ing at the date of the twelfth -census.”
They do not emphasize, if they even
know, that Census Bulletin No. 57 of
date October 19. 1906. covering cenor-
allv the census of manufactures of
1905, which really refers to the. calen
dar year 1904. shows that tho average
number of wage-earners in the United
States under sixteen years of age - n-
! gaged in manufactures decreased -e-
| tween 1.900 and 1903 from 161.276 to
1 139.899.

refer to the material on p age.'. 47 iid

lowing statement is based:

January 30 was probably
correct in its statement that there are
not 3 ono in ail tiie faetorles of the

of the “child-tabor" law. but it must
be recalled that in its issue of Jan
uary 1 the Constitution announced that
the section of the Georgia “child-labor"
act going Into effect, that day “frees
5.000 working children in Georgia.”
Of course that statement, similar to I
other statements in Georgia newspa
pers of the time, must have been furn- |
ished to the Constitution and published |
by it in good faith. But i: was on a
par with many of ihe statements
which have been made in promotion of
■’child-labor'’ legislation or In attempts
to create an impression that the legis
lation was called for. and it was on a
par with the assertion of Senator Bev
eridge, who believed at first he was
dealing with facts, just as he thought
that a few photographs of exceptional
cases could be legitimately used in
promotion of a general measure affect
ing thousands of cases by no means
approaching those of the photographs.
Pressed for evidence In support of his
statement that applications had been
granted for the employment of 3.009
children, referred to in Senator Bacon’s
telegram, Mr. Beveridge said that he
would try to fish it up then, except
that he did not want to disarrange his
papers. About 18,000 or 20 000 words
farther on In his oration appears a
quotation-from an Atlanta newspaper
which Mr. Beveridge says “corrects
my statement a moment ago." The
quotation of date January 5, 1907. is
to the effect that at the lime it was
estimated "by Ordinary Wilkinson that
in Fulton County alone during the eur-
2,000 and 3.000 call

such figures as those quoted-as more

average number of cotton-mi l opera

of age to be 23,135. or even a census
estimated number 31,085. prove the ab

cotton mills. As a matter of fact. Bul

“In spite of the increase- in tiie act

Such Individuals know. too. that
there is no basis Cor intelligent action
