Another widespread and constant
" augmeniing movement, calculated
to promote the material welfare Of
class and to raise them in
the social scale, is that of co opera
two societies and stores. There are
some Of these combinations in Lon
don, but more in manufacturing c0un-
ties, and they ore confined chiefly to
artisans, mechanics, small traders
and manufacturing la5orers. 1t
would not be so easy for agricultural |
laborers to act together, as they live
further apart and have not the re-
sources and facilities of the other
classes for co operation. Still there
is no reason that the system which
has been developed in the towns
should not lie extended to the villa
res. The workmen saw that each
family buying provisions, clothes and
materials in small quaint,
lies at the ordinary stores or shops as
they wanted them, were paying dear
.Or poor articles, and that a host OF
lived far better than
or got rich by this busie
less. They concluded to co ooperate
by clubbing together a certain
amount Of their wages, and with that
Aggregated sum buy at wholesale and
sell to each other from the common
stack at wholesale prices, with the
cost of management added. They
'ound that they they got everything
much cheaper and oil a better quality.
What one or two could. The age
yregated small means Of many forms
ID capital with which the cooper
.tors could go to the first and best
market. From q small beginning in
his way larger and important estab-
ishments have grown up, some OF
which have stock and capital to
he amount Of many hundred thou
iapds OF dollars. They have the
and characteristics of
arge mercantile firms, and some OF
hem sell TO others as well as to co
,peratcrs. for the benefit of the as
ociarion. This sort of community
If interest, if it can he carried ont
ar or generally, would prove an eff
ectural cure to the destructive and
mplacticable communism or social
SIN of the French and German the.
'rist, and it must have a conserya-
