The fnauci.l relations existing bG-
tween tEe lnoneyed ofistoccaey of the
country and the labcI;Gg men are SO
close that az thing watch a.iects the
one class will have its relative effect
on the otl.er. Tie fact is SO plain,
and so clearly demonstrated by each
little wave of financial trouble that
sweeps over the conntry that argu-
ment Oh The point is useless. Labor
and capital ar9 tie component parts OF
this great Republic, and they walk
hand in hand along every highway
and byway of life. The sioppage Of
great works, OF the reduction Of force
or wages, II factories or on rail-
roads, is felt by the moneyed
men as we'll as the laboEcrs
While some aro iich ard others are
poor, We are all vorkingmcn in varl-
GUS departments Of one great whole.

such cases, 1T least, a lavish cXpend:t-

carries the blessings of labor to the

HE Their apparatus can be affiXed
eaually to all gas-jets, and 1t is made TO
act not by any special mechanism, but
S;mnly by the increased pressure OF the
cas which is always laid on from the
S7asometer when the lamps should be
lighted. The one act of turning on the
gas at the main ignites it at all the burn
ers fitted with the new apparatus. IN
achieving this result the designers did
not really obtain any very practical al

When the pressure is diminished at the

the whole city will be simultaneously
