something to do with the attendance, viz.

THE LABOR QUESTION

"a working man." writing to the n. Y.
Witness sums up the Labor Question in the
following very sensible manner, which we
recommend to the earnest consideration of
all intelligent nen
/. Labor is necessary for health, conduc-
i've to longevity, and the basis of prosperity
2. The most contented people IN the world
are the working classes, from the fact, that
there are more suicides pro rata among the
rich than among the poor, among brain
workers than hand workers, among traders
and employers of labor, than among labor
ers.
3. Business competition prompts employ
ers to pay the market price to their hands,
which is usually all they can afford to pay.
4. The history of nations for hundreds of
years demonstrates the fact that strikes as
general rule, do not pay in the end.
5. Labor statistics prove that the wages of
employees are oftener raised by business
competition than by strikes by mild request
and courteous conduct than by peremptory
demands and threats.
6. 1t is an axiom among business men
that a steady business with small profits is
better than uncertain business and large
profits.
Z. Inc lulu NllONst tllut NhcIc man
has permanent position and fair wages, it
is policy to conduct himself like a gentleman
and Christian, and refrain from harsh
measures.
s. There are more strikes in America
among men whose wages are over nine dol
lars a week, than there are among those
whose weekly salary is less than nine dol
lars. In other words, the more a man gets
the more he wants.
Q. "Contentment, with godliness, is great
gain" for without godliness no amount OF
money will confetti man.
10. More men have their pay cut down,
get out of work, and become poupers and
tramps through strong drink than from all
other causes combined.
IL. The workingmau who will fear God
and keep His commandments" be indus
trious, temperate and economical, and vote
on election day for candidates who are men
of sound principle, business ability and in
| tegrity, lays the foundation Tor individual
aud national prosperity, and does more to-
wards solving the Labor Question than a
scare OF scheming agiIators and "golitical
| bilks."
