There have been laborers and poor, in al ages but
what peculiar to the present time is the opinion
prevalent in day, that there exists somewhere spe

that with little good wil rulers could easily discover

after the chimera the same ruins To combat
this false idea from which many evils proceed is the
object Of the Academy in proposing the question which
have announced To this end II desires that the compe
ors seek to spread among the working classes to which
they address themselves OF the most elementary and
certain principles Of political economy that they make
these classes understand for example, what there is per-
manet and necessary in the economic laws which govern
the rate Of wages that those laws being in some sort

truths to be demonstrated have only need of observations
