So sad, so sweet, as this ourfast farewell,

Until they die

Labor at Home aud Abroad.

In the valuable report Of the United
States Commissioner Of Labor, from which
the 1NrKLLlaENcRR has before quoted, and
from which an interesting summary 'ap'
pears to-day, there are some statements Of
fact which ought to encourage all Amer
leans.
The industrial depression is not con.
fined to this country, but is worldwide,
having begun simultaneously in all Of the
great manufacturing countries. BY rea.
son Of our greater vitality, and the more
equal distribution Of wealth, we were the
first to show signs Of reCuperation when
tho labor troubles appeared and gave us a
setback. However unsatisfactory may
be the present condition Of American
w~aSe-earners in certain employments, we
stand first Of all the countries in rates Of
wages and earnings.
II is also true that we head the list In
cost Of living, but then We arc FIRST again
in the standard Of living and the condi.
ton Of our wsge.earners, which Is sufd.
cient proof that the whole difference is
not lost in the higher cost otliving. There
is a margin which goes into home com.
forts and savings, and by so much the
American is better OF than his competitor
across the ocean. There Is still room for
improvement, bttin our desire to improve
our condition we must not forget what we
already have.
There are remedies Of which we can
avail ourselves. We can maintain a sui.
fcsnt tariff, restrict immigration, perfect
the orgai1atiOn Of labor to maintain wages
and Of capital TO maintain prices, the two
cooperating TO maintain the supremacy Of
American products at home.
In time we shall probably see our way
clear 10 introduce q system Of proatshaf.
Ing that will work radical change for tie
better. 1t cannot ali come at once, and II
must be sought through peaceful, rational
mAkhnda.
