Is There work Enough for All:

Human wants and desires have come To
demand more than the mere necessities
for living. Before a complete supply of
such necessities Is reached. society de
mands creature comforts and means of
luxury. 1t accordingly sends out its de-
mand for laborers who have greater skill
of manipulation and greater power OF in
vention. and invites them to ascend to
better paid industries. These include man
ufactures that are adapted To luxury and
creature comforts an d which require a
high order of educated. technical skill.
This culling out of the higher class of la
borers relieves the pressure on the lower
orders. wherein machinery displaces the
mere hand laborer. ID Is obvious all along
the line that a new cycle of employments
which add luxury and creature comforts
may draw into II the laborers of the lower
class as fast as they can he dispensed
with below.
I Suppose that an extreme limit Is reach

hundred of the population is able To sup
ply with the aid of machinery all the raw
material that Is needed. suppose again
that one person out of each one hundred
Of the people engaged In manufacturing
when aided by machinery. is equal TO the
task Of producing all the articles OF neces-
sity. Suppose the same In the spheres OF
transportation and commerce. When once
the labor was readjusted IL would be
found that the ninety-nine laborers out OF
each hundred could be proftably employ
ed in providing "A better quality of cloth
ing. more commodious dwellings. more
comfortable furniture. better transporta-
ton facilities and better mills and work
ing places for the laborer. The entire sur
plus of laborers could he taken up into
this higher order of occupations that in
crease the means Of Luxury and comfort
for the people.
This reimbursement Of vacations may be
accomplished well enough. provided the
laborers are generally intelligent. But this
il a very important proviso. The popuiaee
must be educated i'm the common schools
and have that superior intelligence which
comes from knowledge Of the rudiments-
reading. writing. arithmetic. geography.
Industrial dawing etc. And with educa-
ton the laborer becomes able to ascend

and direction Of machinery. and to those
employments requiring greater skill,
which furnish the articles of luxury and

Boston Merchant. on Currency.

Boston. Dec. 21.-At the monthly meet
ing this evening of the board of directors
of the Merchants Association resolutions
were adopted calling for the creation in
the Treasury of division of issue and re-
demption. as recommended by President
Mckinley; the freeing of our commerce
from the shackles of an inelastic currency
and from the stimulus to unhealthy spec
ulation which it creates; the throwing on
the banks the task of the prompt daily
redemption of our legal tender notes; the
securing of our legal tender notes beyond
all chance of reputation by gradually
gaining for them a guaranty by the banks
and thereby virtual guaranty by almost
all the business men of the country.
Other resolutions call for the retention
of the Canadian bonding privilege and
urge the restoration to the United States
of the ocean carrying trade in vessels sail
ing under the American flag.
