This law has created much dissatisfaction in Moosup, as many of the local people are of th eopirion that a smaller town should have the same privileges in this matter as a larger one. Many of the workingmen are compelled to work six days a week, from 7 in the morn- ing until 6 at night, and they claim their only chance for recreation comes on Sunday. These men believe the bill nnfair. Representative Sheldon of this town attempted to have passed an amendment~ to the bill which would take in the smaller places as well, but the amendmenr was not passed. % Ministers’ Meeting.
