MOBILITY OF LABOR"

Rev. Mr.. Birnie, in his evening
sermon of the 22d, urged larger
recognition of the merits of the
toilers, the working men, and
strongly condemned the disposition
to frown on toll, or question its no
bility. What is 'Etoil!" It is a
vague word. It came, according to
Genesis, as a curse upon man. "1n
the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat
bread" What makes toll respect
able, or gives it nobility? If one
matchmaker works industriously
and makes poor watches, is there
any nobility in it2 When Judge
Perry sentences a convicted person
to hard labor, does he tell him that

drift of civilization is to use the
hand less and the brain more, to
use the machine and let the brain
guide it, to admire the working
brain and not the working machine,
though it does the labor of thou
sand men, and the laboring man
will get no recognition unless he
shows himself a master of some
thing. even if it is a little.

he sentences him to noble occu-
patton! The regulation topic of the
Fourth of July orators, some years
ago, was the dignity of labor
But the Irishman came, and the
| Chinese, and the Italians, and the
Russian-Jew came and that sort
of eloquence stopped. There seem
led to be no dignity in cheap labor.
Is it not, after all, only the toiler
who thinks, and uses his brains,
that is to be respected! Do you
respect the man who hammers out
a few pounds of nails very day on
an anvil, as You respect the man
who invents and guides a nail ma
chine, that turn out IA key every
moment! To which farrner is the
mobility of labor assigned; the one
who gets twelve bushels of corn
from an acre, or the one who
!plonghs deeply, uses fertilizers,
selects seed, and on the same kind
of soil gets eighty bushels to the
acre. If mere labor is noble, then
the mules on the tram cars are en-
titled to nobility. That which in
wolves, patience, invention, persis-
tence on ~, is noble, and commands
respect. You recognize the merits
of the hand laborer, to whom
Carnegie gives $25 per day, and do
not see much merit or dignity in
the hod carrier who gets only 81
per day. There is not much merit
in a man who has neglected his ed
ucation, or thrown away his oppor-
tunities or squandered his earnings,
even If he does no ''honest" work
Even the laborer himself worships
skill. He who hits the bulls eye
every time is entitled to nobility as
against the man who cannot hit a
barn door, because he is too lazy to
train his hand and eye.
Starr King said ''The mastery
of the earth is the trust which the
Almighty has committed to man"
But how many men master" any
thing? If they are poor masters,
by their own choice, why have they
any merits? The president of the
n. Y. elevated railway said: Il
employ 5000 men, but l don't be
! Ilieve one of them wishes to do any
thing but draw his wages" Yet,
all of these men say that the rich
people do not recognize their
merits. We saw, last year, scores
of young Americans idly standing
on the street corners of Los Angeles
demanding recognition" from so
ciety. Only three miles away, the
Chinese market gardeners were
eraning 50 pc rday. Beekman, a
rich n. Y. merchant said, after
sixty years of observation: "Any
young man who comes without a
dollar to this city, but has intelli-
gence, economy, industry and pa

THE FORESTRY REPORT.

The report of the Committee of
Forestry of the Planters Associa-
ton, of which Mr.. w. NJ. Giffard
is chairman, contains a brief but
very comprehensive and intelligent
servey of the forestry question.
DIR. Maxwell, who is in the line of
advanced thinkers on all vital ques-
tiOns, makes serveral i'm
portant suggestions in letter to
President Dole, and adds a letter
from the L. S. Department of Ag
riculture on the forestry conditions
of the United States, which are
most unfavorable at present. The
white pine of the East is nearly ex-
tinct. SO is the poplar of the
South. 1t was recently stated that
between the years 1881 and 1889,
the value of the timber stolen from
the Government lands was $751;
900, 900; that under the Timber
Act 100000 had been collected
and the cost of collecting ii was
$45O,OOO.
The statement made by DIR.
Maxwell that ut is the forest com
posed of trees of great height and
bulk, which mainly affects the fall
of rain," we would not dispute, be-
cause DIR. Maxwell is a close stu
dent of this subject, but we notice
that Mr.. Furnow, the chief of the
Bureau of Forestry in Washington,
hesitates to agree with him, for he
says s'the proposition is by no
means nearly proven and the argu-
ment for forestry is open to attack,
without sure defense" Several
years ago at La Junta, Colorado,
where there is no forest within ser
eral hundred miles, we said to a
farmer: at is a pity you do not
have rain" He replied, eve have
plenty of rain, but it doesn't come
at the right time There is an
abundance of rain in the almost
tree-less area of the Rocky Noun
tains, but it does not fall at the
right time. Mr.. Gjerdrum, one OF
the members of the Forestry Com
mittee says, in his report" Fifty
years ago the windward side of
Maui was covered with a dense
forest and at that time rainfall all
over the island was abundant. :"
Now we remember, fifty years ago,
seeing Father Green of Maka-
wac, travelling several miles daily
for weeks, between his residence
and the gulch for drinking water.
His own wheat fields as well as the
small sugar plantation of Mr.. Nc
Lane, suffered repeatedly from the
want of rain. Others confirm this
statement.
But, the value of forests as 8
conserver of water, seems to be be

Der.
The same intelligent administra
ton which gave us the admirable
Typographical survey of the Isl
ands, which has no equal in the
United States, we believe, SHOULD
secure for us a thorough survey Of
the forestry conditions.
The valuable report presented by
Mr.. Giffard, should be read to the
older children in all of the public
schools, and they should be made
to understand it.

THERE is naturally some u~neasiness
while large bodies of men are parading
tho public highwys in the effort to in-
duce other men to join them says the
Pittsburg Dispatch. This uneasiness is
due to the we'll known responsibility
of crowds, which often do things their
individual members would rot think of
alone. But there is no special cause
for alarm. The miners have conduct
ed themselves very peaceably up to the
present time, and surely every one of
them understands that g single act of
violence would prove fatal to their
cause. On the other side, it is equally
well understood that any resort to vio-
lence or improper methods would de-
feat their object. 1t is q time for extra

THE foreign trade of the United
States during the fiscal year ending
June 30th, 1897, was the largest in the
history Of the country. The govern
msnt bureau of statistics has just CON-

that the value of merchandise exported
during that period reached the enor-
nous sum of ST ,032, 001, 800, compared
with $1,015. 1901 for the fiscal year
ended June 80, 1896, an increase OF
1858. S00,Sl Domestic manufactures

cd the sum of 1926, $685. 1851, or rs rs
per cent of the total exports, which is
an increase compared with the pre-
vious fiscal year Of SAG. 1s6 1888. The
