PATERNALISM VS.. FREEDOM

From the Boston Herald
Mr. William Lloyd Garrison's essay on
'Paternali5m vs.. Freedom" held the
closest attention of the large audience in
Horticultural hall. After referring to
the everywhere spread idea that 1.-The
world owes every one a living" he said:
At the root of almost every large enter
prise lies the prosperity and aggrandize-
ment of private individuals, though
these ENTERPRISES are made to appear like
gigantic schemes for the public good
when really it is the interests of those
private individuals that the government
IS called upon to protect. The struggle
and scramble for Office is only seeking
for a way to live without work, and will
severely test the strength of our govern
ment.
Paternalism sthe artificial opposite to
the natural method Of government.
Opposed to paternalism Is freedom
which prefers a crust with independ-
ence 10 luxurious ease where loss of
liberty Is eXacted. Society swarms with
GuackS. Between paternalism and free
dom the struggle was never greater than
now. Discernment as we'll as enthusi-
assn is needed and common sense Is a
good anchor to cling to. The tendency
of the times is to industrial concentra-
ton; this would destroy competition. and
without competition how could there be
success and, again. how can competition
be restricted 50 Is TO prevent dangerous
success:

BUYING CHEAP AND SELLING DEAR.

BUY where you can buy cheapest,
and sell where You can sell dearest,
shouts the attorney for free trade, and
in the glittering of this trite maxim the
working1nan is expected to overlook the
fact that right here in the United States,
under our existing economic policy, he
can maintain himself and his family
with less exertion than it could be done
with in any other country in the world.
He could not increase the ratio Of his
comfort and happiness to his labor by
getting into all the markets within reach
Of commerce. In fact if he was restrict
ed to the highest wages paid elsewhere
he would be compelled to do without
the fulhIment Of some desires he salts
fies here.
The man who has nothing but skill
and labor to sell will always find it to
his advantage to get where the demand
for these is most active; where wage
payers hunt for men to help carry on
their enterprises, rather than where
wage carriers are compelled to hunt for
employment. Inasmuch as this could
not be if the business Of the country was
restricted to the few industries possible
under free trade, the working man would
have all the hunting TO do il the policy
should prevail.

FORWARD, THE WORD.

There seems to be a wide difference of
opinion among our contemporary sociol-
Ogists as to the chief causes of poverty
at the present time, if we may Judge
from the results of a symposium on this
subject obtained by the New York
World. 3Ir. Atkinson saws the causes of
poverty are ignorance and mcapacity.
Mr.. Depew says it is incompetence. and
he is supported in this view bv Million
aire Rockefeller and Eir. Russell Sage.
Prof. Sumner adds vice and folly in gen
eral to this cause, while John Boyle
O'Reilly strikes ont and declares that
our present civilization is organized in
Justice and intellectual barbarism, and
that the rich have usurped all the rights
which belong by right to the poor, who
do not understand that the world be-
longs to its living population. Until
there shall be somewhat closer agree
ment as to the underlying causes of pow
erty, there doesn't seem TO be much Of a
chance of Graduating it.
We are not disposed to take pessimis-
tic view of matters; if we were we could
and should assign an entirely different
reason from any above referred to for
the general depression through which
the country has passed for several
months, bat from which we are reioiced
to now see it emerging, Therefore,
whatever the cause or combination of
causes, it can not but be a source of uni
versal qualification to be assured that the
worst is past, and that we only need a
simple restoration Of confidence gener-
ally to bring about the good time so long
and SO devoutly wished. And this is
coming apace.
