classes are still advancing in prosperity
and intelligence.
Those branches Of skilled industry In
which machinery has been brought to
the greatest perfce ton pay the highest
wages TO their workmen. II simply needs
TO be borne in mind that the annual prof
[ its Of capital and the annual wages Of
labor are both derived alike from the an.
nual product. The more effective the
capital I'm the form of machinery, the
less the number OF persons required, the
higher the wages for those employed
The line silks Of Lyons, woven only ON a
hand loom, the laccs OF Brussels, the fine
carving of Switzerland, the Tuscan jew
elry, the production of tea in China, the
spadc-labor OF Belgium, and the like, can
only be produced at the lowest rates OF
earnings, barely sufficient tosupport life :
and yet the fabric may be Of extremely
high cost, because Of the amount of Ia
Dor put upon 1t.
We may exchange the product of a sim
gle days work Of machinery, directed by
one man, for fifty or a hundred days
product OF those who are still obliged to
follow pursuits that are not aided by
machinery. We may obtain the product
of fifty days labor in the coffee planta-
lions of South America, or of Java; or
one hundred days labor in the tea-fclds
OF China; or twenty days labor in the
sugar plantations Of CUBA, for the labor
OF single man or woman directing ma
chinery. By means of such exchange we
can increase the quantity of things to be
divided among our own people, and
greatly add to their comforts and enjoy
ment
"Over production" has been the ready
explanation of hard times every time a
depression of trade comes upon the coun-
try, but it is false and sophistical. We
do, indeed, produce more than we
need to consume ut home, and the
accumulation of surplus often
causes such arrangement OF in
dustry as to compel the stoppage
of manufacturing enterprises, but this is
due to unequal distribution, not to over
production. There are countries that do
not produce half as much as they con-
sumo, and must purchase what they need.
Our surplus of production should supply
their demands. If it were not for our
abominable tariff, which erects "a wall
against foreign trade, customers could be
found in Mexico and South America for
all our products in excess of the home
demand, and the factories now running
on half time, or not at all, would give
abundant employment to the idle laborer,
and the products OF the two--of skilled
labor and labor-saving machinery-would
be in active demand. That this is not so
may be laid against Il prohibitory tariff,
which seeks to keep our trade at home
and denies to our manufacturers the priv
ilege of sending their goods to their
natural customers. II Is the tariff, not
machinery, that workingmen should
learn to hate. Remove the former, and
the latter will give them independence.

The political parties In New York have
held their conventions, enunclated their
platforms OF principles and nominated
their candidates, and the issue for the
year has been made up and the con-
testants have gone before the country for
their verdict. The result in New York
win be watched for with iD2re than usual
interest for an "off year" The result
will, in measure, be I'm expression of
opinion upon the administration of the
Democratic party in national affairs.
New York Is now the pivotal state in
national politics, and the meager major
ity given Mr. Cleveland in 1884 is not
sufficient TO inspire Democrats with con-
tldencc that IL will be found in the Demo-
cratic column In 1888. If, however, the
Democrats carry New York this fall by a
reasonably Increased majority, 1t will
augur fayorably for Democratic triumph
in the next presidential campaign. That
the Republicans appreciate this is indi-
Gated by the speeches and platform MT
terances in the late convention of
their party. More attention was de-
voted to national than state questions,
and it would require no great stretch OF
the imagination TO mistake the delibera-
tions OF that body as of national rather
than Of local character. The tariff
national finances, the civil-service and
other topics of national import received
more consideration at their hands than
did the "burning questions in state
legislation, such as tax reform, NUM-
cipal reform, convict labor, canal en-
largement, railroad regulations and other
kindred matters of local interest Even
In the matter Of the Improvement of the
the general government sntrid ~rce,tf' "a
portion of the expense
On the other hand, aside from the
adoption of resolution of approval of
Mr.. Cleveland administration, the Demo-
Gratis made no buncombe speeches and
cnunciated no fulsome views upon matters
OF national concern. The same difference
is also discemiblo in the nomination of
candidates. The Republicans over
looked number of good smrn of
wide reputation and high standing and
nominated man of whom the best
that can be said is that no one knows
anything against him, for the very good
reason that nothing at all is nown of
him. The Democrats nomnted the
present candidate, man widely known,
as an advocate of political reorm, of
strong opinions and unblemishd lnteg-
rlty.
| The chances are decidedly inavor of
the retention OF the Democracy
in power in the state govern
ment, and to that extent, an ndorse-
ment of Democratic methods in 9TH the !
state and national government. ne gen
eral public will look for the velict as
rendered at the polls In Novemlr with |
unusual interest.
