ST. HELENS HOMES.
I was wondering how long the people would take to protest against the increase in charges for the St. Helens homes. As your correfi- ; pondent points out, these homes were instituted by the late Mr. Seddon for the benefit of those people who were unable to pay th# high prices at private homes, and the least. Mr. Forbes could do its leave the charges a*, they are. Things are hard enough now, and on top of it all is the ten per cent •• which will only make things worse. Mr, ,- T Forbes evidently does not think of the poor people; all he evidently thinks about is making, . a name in history for himself. -» A MOTHER. . •
