Labor VS. Capital.

MIR. EDITOR believing that you
are interested in all that pertains TO
the prosperity Of BrOckway Centre, |
make free to ask little of your space.
For some wears | have been close
observer OF the growth and prosperity
or this place and have looked into the
various causes that have contributed
to it. find i'll our midst "a large num-
Der Of laborers and mechanics who
are a very thrifty class of citizens, So
Der. industrious, economical and in
telligent, who work hard from one
years end to the other Of they can
find employment and who spend every
dollar of their earnings at home. Sell
dom does any one OF them go to any
other town TO purchase single dollars
worth of goods. The people have
purchased lots and built themselves
little homes and are doing their best
To build up the town. When a bonus
is needed for anything that advances
the interest of the place they come to
the front and bear more than their
share, and this seems to me to be one
great cause of our prosperity. Viewing
the matter in this light one would
naturally suppose that as the interests
OF the business men of the town de-
ponds very much on the patronage Of
the laborer and mechanic, that when
they have any work to do they would
give it To resident mechanics in pre-
ference to tramps and outsiders, who
have no interest here, save to earn
what money they can and then off with
it to spend it somewhere else. If
those having employment for mechan-
les or day laborerS would consider for
moment that if they employ our own
citizens they are placing the money
paid them where it will come back
again. instead of being carried out OF
the country, they would by all means
give the preference to our own citizens.
But l am sorry to say that many of
our business men who are employing
men lose sight of this fact and to-day
many of the mechanics employed in
town are transient persons who will
stay here no longer than they can get
employment. Remember winter is
coming OIL and If our own mechanics
can not save little during the sum
mer they will not have much to spend
with You during the winter. Another
thing / notice and regret it very much
and that is, that some of our people
prefer to hire Jack" mechanics from
abroad because they can get their labor
for very little less than good mechan-
les at home, many of whom are idle.
This, i believe. is very poor policy.
Better pay our own men "a little more
and get it back in trade and influence
than to drive their trade and influence
somewhere else, for certainly this is
what is being done. Let us be united,
help one another. stand by each other
and then we may expect to prosper.
If this does not have its desired effect,
you may expect to hear from me
again. FAIR PLAY.

The fatal club! Dock is dead (!

While there may be among us a few
educated pigs and donkeys, there is in
our midst at least one creature that
possesses the propensitieS OF an uhed-
ucated swine: and IL is the character
of this intellectual and moral mon
stroslty that we wish here to delineate.
1t is the vile mouthed wretch who, a
few weeks ago, attacked in the mean
est way, behind the screen of Il fictitious
name, the character of one of the
most highly respected young ladies of
this place; and who in the last issue.
attacked in like manner, the person
who defended them. This anomalous
creature whose head is too round to be
square and too small at the top to in
dictate an average cerebral develore-
ment, this concealed slanderer and con-
temptahle falsilier, swine without
bristles, II snake in the grass; has un-
justly charged us with the otfense Of
which h. himself is unque5tionably
guilty. Any man who will, in such
public manner. make a statement
which will tend to compromise the
character of respectable young lady
and his own article which we criti-
cised is sufficient evidence that lie did
is a stranger to decency aud pro.
priety and would disgrace a band of
barbarians, for it is said THAT there is
honor among savages and thieves"
but in him there is no honor. We, in
our criticism, wished to gently re-
prove him for treating ladies with such
disc0urtesy, thinking that he might see
the error of his way and attempt re-
form. We also wished To do him the
favor of showing him how his awk-
ward and incorrect use of language
was making him laughing stock for
the community, thinking he might re-
cogniZe his inability ana stop; but
with the ingratitude. stubbornneSs
and illiteracy characteristic OF the
thick skulled creatures of his kind, he
rurns upon us with his false, wrong
full and understandable accusations.
AS he has neither respect for himself
nor regard for the feelings of others.
and has neither principle nor charac-
ter to lose. he, on the slightest provo
cation, attacks the character Of others.
He falsely states that our criticism
contained errors, and in that very sem
tence lie displays his ignorance by
making a blunder. lie attempts TO
use figures while lie misuses terms
with which an average school boy of
ten years of age should be familiar
He says he is not afraid of being crush
ed. He is both wise and brave. Wis
dom and bravery will probably, die
with him. He who knows little fears
little; and there is no one so wise in
his OWE opinion as he who knows but
little. when ignorance is bliss tits
folly to be wise"
