ton of all business, labor is gathering the
larger share of the profit.

Il
When the price oc an Article is reduced il
| is proper that thar reduction should be divid
ed among the constituent parts of its cost and
labor should bear its due proportion, of the
| reduction.
In such state of business as now exists,
everywhere, laborers should not be too jealous
of their employers. 1t is a struggle on the
part of those employers for business exis-
| tence, and not for profits.
We sincerely hope the mills and factories
in Augusta may be able to prosecute their
business, without the necessity Of reducing
the wages of their workmen, as manufacture
ers in other States and other parts of this
State have been obliged to do; but if it should
be necessary that this should be done here
we hope that our laborers will consent to join
their employers in an effort to continue bust
ness, in face Of the great obstacles to BUSH
ness--high labor. and low and inactive
market.
A long and hard winter is approaching, and
it is most earnestly to be recommended that
all laborers and those who employ them will
unite in a serious and well considered effort
to save each other from the disasters of want
of employment and the loss inseparably con-
nected with discontinuance Of business OPP
erations.

employed to do the act by Donovan Marble
Of Dixfeld. who offered him S25. Mr.. Har-

Labor Prospects for the Ensuing Winter.
The manufacturers of Massachusetts, and
Rhode Island have held meetings and voted to
reduce the time of running their factories,
some of them to one-half and some to two
thirds time. The marble proprietors Of Yer
mont have resolved on reduction of wages,
and their workmen, approaching the situa-
ton, have accepted the reduction.
From all parts of the country come reports
of similar proceedings. They are the result
Of the low prices which all manufactured ar.
ticles now command in tho market.
For the past five years there has been a
gradual reduction in the price of manufac-
tured articles, with steady increase during
those years in the price of labor, until the
cost of manufacturing and the price of the
product are equal. and in many cases the cost
exceeds the value. Many large manufactur-
ing concerns, with large liabilities and large
stock in process, are continuing business at a
loss, in order to meet their maturing ob!iga'
tons. $500
Nine-tenths of the cost OF manufactured
articles consists of labor.
Practically, the labor of the country owns
nine-tenths (9-l0ths) of the product of the
country. But while the laborer continues to
sell his part of the product at an advanced
price, the manufacturer is selling his alta loss.
Labor and capital are In partnership in the
