CHINESE INDUSTRY.

No race of men can surpasf the Chinese
in habits of industry and thrift. With
the introduction. of Western c1villzat1on
the vast resources of the country will be
DEVELOPED, the products of the soil anu
manufacture will Indefinitely increase,
and domestic and international tradeFwlll
be multiplied In It's proportions. NOW, IN
all this material regeneration OF CHINA

from trade, from mines, from nlanufac-
tories, without his securing due pre-
portion as a reward for his part in the
ENTERPRISE He Will patiently and faith

GRAFTON, and i'll the second half he Will
appear as his own master, at the head
of thriving; business. Thus, in the In
dustries of the future, wherever there is
work to be done, there will be found
Chinese ready to sell strength, as
working fCr hire is called in China; and
they will sell more strength for tho
money than will men of any other ma
ton.
v Again. IL dollar in the hands of China
man represents far greater purchasing
power than 1T does in the hands OF a
European In China a dollar will pur-
chase 1,50G pieces of cash composed OF
copper and zinc. These cash, with a
hole In the center and strung on cord,
weigh seven pounds. A servant or COM
mon laborer in Pekin is glad to give ten
days of labor, and carpenter OF mason
six DAYS, to secure this amout of cash.
This money would give a comfortable
supper to an average family. Three dol
lars q, month, or $36 dollars a year, would
cover the living income of Chinese fam
lily of the working class. The meaning Of
this is that the Chinaman will survive
and prosper under conditions of life which
would discourage and finally overwhelm
the European.
