A BLESSING OR A CURSE?

It is we'll known to every INTEL igent
person that within the past few years
rapid strides have been made in the
line of inventions and improvements
for economizing human labor. Yet not
everybody, even among the educated
classes, realizes how extensively this
phase of industrial conditions has been
developed. A few facts by way of il
lustration may be mentioned i'll this
connection.
In cotton spinning one man aud two
boys now perform the work which for
merly required LOO spinners to do.
One man at cotton weaving doss AS
much work as forty weavers did when
his grandfather was living. Cotton
printing machines have replaced 800
per cent of hand labor.
Horseshoss ara made by one man
and one machine as fast as formerly by
800 men. Out of 500 men formerly
employed at log saving, 400 have lost
their jobs through the Introduction of
modern machinery. One man can now
perform the former labor Of 1900 men
in, loading and unloading vessels.
Steel tie machines have wrought saw
ing OF labor to thu extent of 500 per
cent Ia the manufacture of papsr a
gain of So per cent is made. One man
now makes as much pottery ware in a
given time as 1000 men formerly made
Steel wire nail machines effect a saw
ing OF 300 per cent; and typesetting
machines saving of, sometimes, $50
per cent. An expert matchmaker, with
the aid of machinery can save IS per
cent over former hand labor. At
woodcarving one man now does work
equaling what 100 mea formerly did in
the old way. And the list might be
extended much farther.
Such facts as these should set people
to thinking deeply. Labor saving in
ventions are either blessing or curse
to the human race. Waich are they?
Many people think aud declare that
they are cur5e. 1t is common
thing for Performers" of certain Glass
to denounce all such inven tions as
though they came from the devil, con-
tending that they are the chief cause of
idleness, poverty and crime. Bat this
is an i'll advised conclusiou, an unwar-
rante1 assumption, shortsig hted view
of the question. 1t is true that labor
saving devices have forced great
many persons out of needed employ
ment. On the other hand they have
added greatly to the comfort, couven-
fence and happiness Of many millions
Who shall say that this nation would
have been better or as we'll off, all
things considered, without any such
inventions? Who would feel justified
in plotting them out CT existence, if
such thing we're possible?
There is plenty of room, and there
are plenty of natural resources in the
United States for the full employment
OF all labor, in one way or another, and
for the supplying of all reasonable
wants. Improved machinery and i'm
portant inventions are not, of them
selves, detrimental to any class of per-
sons, nor are they obstacles in the way
of honest labor The trouble lies
rather in laws and customs that shut
off the masses from natures workshop,
discourage production, and obstruct

they could hardly express their
views.
The colored brethren were there,
claiming that during the last cana
paign the promise was given unto
them that, if they would but help
in getting the calf out Of the ditch
then, they should have piece of
it. But regardless of their claims
they were not recognized, and were
iorcibly reminded of the old story
about the mule and forty acres Of
land, which said mule and forty
acres of land they were not present.
ed with, although the promise was
frequently made, Many, if NOT all,
of the most respectable negroes
stated that they had been fooled
and would 60 hence and sin no
more by voting straight pop
ticket.
One of the most prominent white
leaders served notice that he would
not support the entire ticket, as lie
was refused the privilege of oppos-
ing one of the names on the slate.
The slate ticket was sugar coated,
hence tasted bitter to but few,
and we, the committee of seven,
can say say: Behold usl How
mighty are We"
Without going into details your
correspondent will say that the
committee of seven evidently did
not consider the eternal fitness Of
things and cared naught for
mans qualifications, so he could
corral q few votes. All in all the
ticket is weak one, and the peu-
| pie, next November, will knock it
silly. Later your correspondent
will furnish some facts and figures
showing the result of populist adj
ministratioh in Lavaca county,
which will show that they have
been weighed in the balance and
found wanting.
