Capital and Labor.

MB. EDIToR:-The careful readers of the
PRESS found the other day among the legisla-
| tive news mention of the fact that an order
blocking to the punishment Of persons guilty
of willfully destroying ice'' had been intro
duced in the House.
At first thought the object of the said order
| may not be very apparent. The idea that it
might be covert threat at respected class of
citizens who sprinkle ashes on the slippery
walks. is dispelled BY Second reading" for
the order is restricted to the rivers and ponds
OF Maine, aud certainly the picture of law
less man attempting, cut of pure malice, to de-
slroy pond-full of ice, on January night, is
shaded by impossbility to say the least But
as some one has ably remarked, there ia never
an effect without Cause, and the cause in the
present Instance il doubtless to be found in a
little matter that happened up in Gardiner
few weeks since.
1t is said that Certain ice dealer. whom we
will call Mr.. Poor in order to thoroughly dis
guise him, visited the other dealers of the city
and tried to make them agree to fix upon
seventy five cents as the price per day for their
help this winter The attempt was noJ sue-
cessful, bat it got abroad in some way, and so
Mr. Poor was scarcely popular with the work.
men on the river.
Not long afterwards quantity of kerosene
oil was poured upon the ice reserved by Mr..
Poor. OF course he did not like that, but what
could he do? 1t wasn't lncendiarism, for no
match was applied to the kerosene. No law
fitted the case, and the only thing to be done
was to appeal to the General Court that the
same thing may not happen again, even if
there shall be an attempt to put wages down to
fifty cents per day.
1t is evident that when the papers say that
this legislature has no important business to
transact they overlook this matter Here is a
great question to be settled at once 1t is a
conflict between capital and labor, monopolies
and free institutions, ice and kerosene. 1t will
be well to watch the course of our law makers
at this crisis. Let US see whether they will
stand by the moneyed man with bis nltimatum
of seventy-fve cents day, or by the laborer
and his little kerosene can.

to sell liquors. Please read the enclosed petit

E. DANA, JR.
The apothecaries simply ask that they be al.

tion of regular physicians prescriptions, which
is considered absolutely necessary. They do
not wish to be COMPOUNDED with retailers of
spirituous liquors, bat they wish to be protect

them properly to conduct their business and
