PROTECT THE WORKERS.
Fortunately the general prosperity that
has pre»alled has left us with few indus-
trlalifdilures. And rcgretahly we have
not so large a proportion of manufacturing
industries as ther-ie an- in the other Prov-
inces of Co-Dalia. \\'e have no bankruptcy
law These circumstances in part account
forthe fact that we have not, as niost
other provinses and countries
have, ii law which give . to
the tmiployees of an insolvent lirni
or company ii first claim on the estate for
their wages. There is we believe :some
slight preference to ilic working employees
in case nn employer. firin or company
m ilu-.~ an assignment. hut not otherwise.
lien- is an oiiiissioii uhich ought to be
~upplie<fby the Legislature, and the mnt~
ter is one which the workers would do
well to impress upon their represeiitntives
in the Prnviiiciril Piirliainent. .
