A Lesson of the Strike,

The estimated losses of the recent
strike bear close relation to an aspect
of the labor problem which does not
receive the attention that it deserves,
to-wit, the question of personal frugal
ity and self denial. 1t is we'll known
fact that the workingmen of the United
States receive better wages than those
of any other country, and yet many of
them live in hand to mouth fashion
by reason of their extravagant and i'm.
provident habits. The more they re-
ceive, the more they spend, careless of
the rainy day for which timely provis-
ion should be made, and not always
regardful of their own physical and
moral welfare. There are thousands of
men in every industry who are earning
enough to live in comfort and put by
handsome sum of money each year,
but who really never have dollar
ahead. They do not stddy economy,
as they would if their wages were lower
and the chances of employment fewer.
Their remarkable prosperity has SEEM
ingly blunted their perception of those
simple rules of saving and accumlating
which constitute the principal secret Of
material success. 1t is impossible for
any man, no matter what he is paid for
his services, to improve his condition
if he allows his expenses to equal his
income. The best way to propitiate
fortune is to make the best use of op.
portunities; and that is where large
proportion, perhaps a majority, of
American wage earners are sadly de
linquent.
1t is not to be contended that work
ingmen should scrimp and stint to such
an extent as to deprive themselves and
their families of anything needful, CT
TO shut harmless pleasure out of their
lives. They can live well and have
certain Injuries from time to time
without absorbing all that they make.

A TRIP TO TENN ESSEE,

| am happy from excitement, getting ready
for to see
The birthplace of my husband, in the State
of Tennessee.
not here relate
For his life has been secret, which has
shown to be his fate.
Time has taught us many lessons that we
shall not soon forget,
For our sorrow, cares and exile from his
home we have been kept.
For freak of childish fancy that he thought
he must endure,
Severed him from home and country for
the length of thirty years.
AT the end of all this worry, news came that
he was free
To visit home and country that he longed
so for TO see:
Then we packed our little gripsack and
started for to see
The loved ones that were to meet us at
Limestone, Tennessee.
We Travelled on through many States, which
we enjoyed so much,
AT last we crossed the wished for line, our
hearts did whisper hush
Behold: the picture were vision that is
seldom ever seen--
With beating heart, extending eyes gasp
ed: "it seems dream"
My husband softly answered dream that's
realized
After SO many years of waiting for this
picture to arise
Before us in it's glory, to show you am
proud
For the praises of my country can never
be too loud.
Arriving there in due time our loved ones
for to see;
We Travelled DER the country of dear old
Tennessee.
We walked on through the fields, where our
hearts has ever been,
And gazed DER wood and country, noun
tain stream and glen.
We bowed our heads together and offered up
prayer
To God our dear Redeemer that in life we
should be spared,
To once more see the country, where so
much blood was shed,
And so many homes were severed and so
many friends were dead.
glad surprise awaited us for so many
friends yet lives,
And were anxiously awaiting our com ng,
a welcome for to give:
Our union was happy one, our hearts were
full of joy;
Once more seen the faces as ] did when
but boy.
A noble State is Tennessee, of which am
SO proud,
For the battles were so nobly fought. it's
praises are so loud,
l can never forget the country for so much
it's done for me
1t nobly won it's battles and waylaid it's
enemy.
We shall never tire viewing all the historic
scenes
That God gave to that country toward
which our hearts still leans.
For 1t were my birthplace and there my
parents rest,
Beneath the sod on Cherokee, some day
I'll be their guest.
Oh! what a crowning glory to meet them
once again
Upon that dear celestial throne, where so
many friends shall sing
My welcome to it's glorious band, where
brother, sister dear
Are waiting for my coming to cross the
river clear.
Farewell, for awhile to Tennessee, as we
must leave once more
For the place where duty calls me, it lies
on yonder shore;
Where so many years waited for good news
to come to me,
From home, friends and country, in dear
old Tennessee.
Mr.. and Mrs. Matt Parker.
Herald and tribune. [volume] (Jonesborough, Tenn.) 1869-current, 1894-08-29

1t is neither. necessary nor desirable
that they should be niggardly in any
respect; but their own interest certainly
lies in that sort of reasonable frugality
which leaves something over when all
expentes are paid. There are chances
of economy which pertain only TO such
uses of money as are more hurtful than
beneficial. For instance, it is estimated
that the laboring people spend $780,
10000 year for beer and whisky-a
sum large enough, as a recent writer
points out, to buy all the railroads of
the country in fifteen years. This is
but one of several forms of wasteful-
ness that could be stopped to the great
advantage of those who are constantly
complaining about their misfortunes.
No strike is required to settle things of
this kind. Every man is master of the
situation 80 far as his own habits are
concerned, and does not need to join a
labor organization in order to reach
definite and practical results. He can
quit spending money carelessly and un-
profitably; and in 80 far as he does
that, he put himself in the way of be-
coming a capitalist.
This applies not only to workingmen,
strictly speaking, but to all classes of
citizen whose incomes are of moder-
ate order. The greatest drawback to
individual success in this country, the
most prolific source of disappointment
and encouragement, is the prevailing
spirit of extravaganza. Wespend more
money in proportion to what we m axe
than any other people on the face of
the earth. If we were as good at keep.
ing as we are at getting, there would
be much better distribution of the
riches of the country. A considerable
measure of the inequality that the labor
agitators talk about in this relation is
attributable to the general lack of
economy which enables the few who
pursue different course to obtain a
larger share of the profits than others.
There are wrongs in our system of in
dustrial and commercial methods and
tendencies, undoubtedly; and it is la
mentally true that the wrong men
frequently prosper while the right ones
fail. But the fact remains, neverthe-
less, when the matter is viewed in a
comprehensive light, that the fault is
oftener in ourselves than elsewhere
that we do not thrive as we'll as we
think we should. We are not willing
to practice self denial for the sake of
future reward; we insist upon eating
our cake as fast as it is cooked, and
then complaining because we do not
have it too. The effects of the strike
serve to emphasize this feature of the
labor problem, and to admonish us
that not what we earn, but what we
save, is the main thing.-St. Louis
Globe Democrat.
