Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1883-07-01

Jobbery and population would
prevail, and the public service,
not now above reproach, would
reek with corruption and dis
honor. 1t would create a null
titude Of subordinate officials,
increase their power and lnfiu-
ence, and make the way easy
for ambitious and designing
men, to subvert the liberties OF
the people.
But this is by no means the
greatest evil that would follow.
1t would exalt the power of cap
ital; enlarge the Of portun-
tiles Of monopoly destroy small
holdings; debase labor, and dis
tr,ss the poor. by making sub
sistence more difficult and pre-
carious. The rent exacted from
the soil and cast upon its pro
ducts, and wasted in public ex-
travegances, would fall with re-
sistless force upon the poor, who,
DOW eriess to shift or bear it,
would sink overwhelmed. into
affect and hopeless misery. To
them nothing would result but
a more remorse!e>s servitude,
| and a more de5asing psverty.s
l cannot finally dismiss this
subject, without entering my
earnest protest against the false
and wicked assumption Of Henry
George, that, as progress ad-
vances labor becomes more de-
graded and less remunerativt {;
and that the cause is inherent in
the structure of modern society.
CHANGING back ward through the
ages, no one can fail to
observe a constant improve
ment in the comforts which
labor yields, and no one
can fail to perceive, the constant
betterment Of the physical and
mental status-the moral, social
and political situation Of those
who work for bread. Ii may he
true that all labor is not equally
irecomPensed; but all labor is
not equally mcritorious, or pro-
ductive; and dis inctions are
necessary to develop the ener-
gies Of individuals, and encour-
age the we'll being of society. II
may be true that some kinds OF
labor, in some localities, is more
onerous and less re.nunerative
than formerly; but in other To-
calities it is less OnrrOus and
better paid; and in the aggre'
gate labor is iInmeasurably ben
Gifted. AS "a class, labGrers art
more enlightened, and their con
dition is generally improved
and the comforts, and pleasure:
) they enjoy, UNNECESSARILY tran
scend what they were in the
past. Undeniably, the very pool
in great cities, who toll only
, with their hands. are making NJ
perceptible gains; but their con
slition is exceptional, due to lOra
causes and not to general laws
: and even in the cities, the body
of labor is comparatively pros
porous and happy. No one Cal
contemplate the magnificen
:. strides that labor has made from
the slavery, poverty, degreda-
ton, and ignorance Of a few cen
turtles ago, to the free, enlight
ened, and honorable position i
holds to-day, without enotien
of satisfaction and pride. Les

labor Of the world was per-
