1t really seems now that the tide bal

With the iron and Mining bust soss
improved, thea Ne may soon expect
better times all the Way dJ"u through
all the utA-r branches Of Industry.
A new life Will be impartel TO ma
chiae shops, to car shops, To foundriee
and factories. The pooplo will DO EN-
ployed and will bs getting money for
wages with which they will pay on old
rents and sore bills, bad things In their
places, but still they have to be paid,
and this will infuse new life into the
merchandising trade
Mech Al G, and laborers who have
been out OF emp oyment for long time
are under deep obliga ions to the land
lords aud their storekeep-rs who have
tided them over the dark period, be-
cause they believed they were honest
and wJuldlpay their bills when better
times came These bene "a ctors should not
be forgotten, but should be amongst the
fret remembered. A. the same time
landlords and merchants will have 70
act with prudence andjudgment. Be-
cause a man, q head Of family gets
fairly remunerative l,bor, is no reason
for expecting him to pay off every
thing he owes in few weeks. There
is no b sitter way In the world 10 dis
courage and drive q man to distraction
than for half dozen creditors to dog
his steps for the first fruits Of his labor,
The landlord, the grocer, the butcher
the baker and the milkmln must still
be patieht and give the man chance
There are dozens OF little things fol
which the family for long time may
have suffered, that are absolutely neces
sary.
Nobody knows what privstions and
what trouble had to be met, what self
denials had to be made to make end,
meet without running up too large q
bill at the stores. Let the prudent
honest laborer alone during the frs
two or three weeks Of his labor. He Car
be trusted to put his money where 1
will do the most good and then he viii
turn his attention TO his creditors.
We heard q man, landlord, two o
three days ago, berate one OF his tenant
TOR not paying something on the rem
out Of the wages he received for the frs
two weeks he had been engaged duriHi
the whole summer. We felt exasperatet
and mildly intimated that all he needet
was the bristles, or something like that
We asked him il he had stopped Il
think that the poor man he was talk
ing about owel the butcher, the grooe
and the baker, and that they all wante,
their money and besides that the baby
probably had no shoes and the wifi
was sick from wearing thin fifty-cen
slippers, because it was the best the,
could afford We asked him II he di,
NV oblhh iiIblC LhOntg " as q
home jus, before common cling to pay OF
old bills. He frankly admitted that h
had not thought abou. that, and we pre-
sumo there are good many creditor
who do not think about such thinss
For half dozen. Creditors to pounc
upon man for his wages just after
has secured employment is very muc
like killing tie goose that laid tn
golden egg. A. IL Will take the i'm
proved tunes at the he Vi VI the iro
trade some months probably to reac
away down in its good effects among
other branches OF industry, 80 1t wi
take the man who mas oeea out Of gu
ployment several months 70 pay off o.
claims and to resume the pr spereus .
sidon he occupied before. Forbear AL
with each other should be a cardin
principle of the hour For many ha
already gone down into the v,rtex
hard times to rise no more, 10 croy
Others in the same direction.
