OBJECT OF THE LABOR MOVE
MENT.
BY DR.. JOHANN JAKOBY.

We reprint from translation by Mrs. Flo
renee Kelley Wischuewetzky, the great speech
delivered in 1870 by the eminent physician
and social st of Unigsberg to It's constituency
While Socialism has outgrOwn some of the
Ideas therein eX ressed as to the possibility or
policy of a MoDUs VIvENDI or TEN porary com
promise between Capital and Labor on the
basis OF profit sharing. the consider 'ti0ns,
chiefly historical, viii h this speech contains,
will prove Of value to our American readers
FELLOW CITIZENS AND FRIENDS:
Permit me to-day to make the Labor
Movement, the 50 called Social Question,
the subject of my remarks. In view of
the close connection between the politi-
cal and the social condition of nation,
every constituent has well-founded
right to demand of his representative
social confession of faith besides his pc
ltical one, | shall endeavor to meet this
demand with the utmost frankness.
One of the greatest thinkers of an
tiouity, Aristotle, divides the whole hui
man race into two classes, free men and
slave natures. The Greeks he declares
are appointed by reason of their free ma
ture to rule over other peoples. The bar
barous races on the contrary, are fitted
for being ruled and performing the ser
wees of slaves. But slavery and slave
labor he explains as a social necessity,
as the indispensable material foundation
of State and Society; for if the free citi-
zens were obliged to do the work re-
uuired for their maintenance, how could
they have the time and the wish to cul-
tivate their intelligence and attend to
the affairs of the State And yet, Aris-
totle makes remarkable observation as
to the conceiveableness of a society with
out slavery. IT, he says, an inanimate
object, tool, an implement. could rem
der the service of the slave, if every in
strument could perform its function at
command or, still better, without even a
command, as the old tradition relates of
the statues of Daedalus, and Homer sings
of the three-legged table of Hephaestus
which entered the halls of the gods of
its own motion; if the looms could weave
and the either produce its tones spontan-
eously. then the artiticers would need
no helpers, and masters no slaves.
Now, everyone know that the miracle
here sketched has to great extent been
wrought and that without the help or
Intervention of the gods, in the most
natural way in the world, by insight into
the laws of nature and mastery of its
forces. What once seemed impossible
to the wisest of the Greeks happens
daily before our eyes. But how has the
miracle worked: Has the success which
Aristotle supposed, attended itY Expe
rience teaches that the wealth of nations
has been immeasurably increased by the
magnificent mechanical appliances OF
our time. Yet, the toilsome, anxious lot
of the laboring class has been anything
but lightened.
Now, let us carry this dream of Arls
totle farther in the light of actual expe
fence. Let US assume that in the remote

nationality; every race, every national
ity has contributed its splinter thereto, a
splinter without which the torch would
be incomplete, without which its luster
would be less. Such a self Iaudatory,
exclusive sentiment as the "Anglo-
Saxon" passage would denote is sadly
out of keeping in a production that
teens with the international spirit, and
that upholds the brotherhood Of man,
Historically it is false; in morals it is
primitive.

OF our total national expenditure, l05
millions are for our civil establishment;
81 millions (or over two-thirds of what
it costs Germany to maintain her enorm
Gus army, are for our military and
naval establishments; 133 millions are
for our veteran pensioners, and 81 mil
lions are for interest on the public debt.

SIX CENTURIES OF Work AND WAGES,
BY PROF. j. 4, THoEoLD ROGERS,
Abridqed by Hcr. ". d. p BLISS,
In attempting an abridged edition Of
the late Thorold Rogers monumental
work our weII.knoWn Christian comrade
of Boston undertook Il task of tremen-
dous difficulty, which, however, he
carried out with remarkable skill and
entire success. In the little book before
Us all the essential CONGRATULATIONS,
historic and economic, of the great
English statistician are presented III con-
tinuity and in Rogers own words, so
that the important results Of his i'm
mense labors, heretofore accessible only
to the student, may now be grasped in
a few hours and at the small cost OF p
cents (paper), or IS cents (bound), by
the most unframed intellect. 1t CON
tains also valuable Appendix, by Mr..
Bliss. and a witty Preface, by Prof. Ely,
of the Johns Hopkins University, We
commend this book, not only to So
calists, Nationalsts and reformers of
all schools, but more especially to those
ignorant optlmists or learned BAN
bOOzlers who talk at random of the
comparative welfare Of the laboring
class in this century,

Lumber for the worlds Fair.
Chattanooga Tradcs,nan


The contracts for several Of the build
ings of the Worlds Fair have been
awarded and orders for the timber and
lumber will soon begin to be placed. MI.
Henry F. Cady, one of the successful bid
ders on the electrical buildings, when
asked when he would begin work, said
"Almost at once, should saw that within
two weeks Chat was on June 49, will
be unloading lumber on the ground. The
material used will be mostly yellow pine
shipped here from Texas and Arkansas
The specifications say the work must DC
completed by Feb. 18th, 1892, and have
no doubt we shall be through in time.
If ell the buildings are TO be completed
at the same date there will certainly be
q grand rush on the mills soon as it is
known that vast amount of timber and
lumber will be required. Besides the
heavy timbers there must of necessity be.
some tremendous big bills for special
sizes in the erection of so many bnsid-
ings oil of the same general plan. 1t is
already known that there are several biiis
calling for % 600 or more pieces OF such
sizes as 2x4-I2, 3x4-24 and so on. 1t
is simply impossible to concentrate these
bills in one locality and get enough OF
each size on the ground fast enough to
keep the work in progress without paying
greatly advanced prices for the lumber
In our opinion, in order to get the timber
and lumber on the ground fast enough to
insure the completion of the building by
February 18th, or even by midsummer, OF
next year, it will he necessary to scatter
the bills ali over the country. While we
know that the milling capacity OF the
country very largely exceeds consump-
tive requirements and that the amount OF
lumber required for the Fair buildings
will be but = small proportion of the total
yearly output Of the mills, yet the placing
of such large orders for special sizes to
be filled on short notice and in addition
to the regular seasons demand, which
will at least be an average one, is bound
to have perceptible effect on the market.
The specifications, so far as made public,
call for considerable proportion of yell
low pine and other Southern woods, and
if the orders are generally distributed,
which we think must necessarily be done
for the reason given, all the mills will
have some work to do in addition to the
regular seasons demand.
It is cash Job and no doubt the con-
tractors have allowed themselves a liberal
margin of profits, still we would advise
millmen not to dip into World Fair con-
tracts too deeply at the start, unless they
are thoroughly informed as to all the con-
ditions of the situation.

delegates will be selected to meet the

claimed that the discrepancy between

too great, and further, il can be shown
that certain Texas points have, pro-
portionately, much lower rate. More
