able. AS to cricket bats, II may be
said that the American" article in
variably bears a foreign trademark
and information from the appraisers
hereon would be timely. The Gazette
says

Of the August circular issued by the
United States government. and deal

These circulars are issued at regular
intervals from the working of the

better than ours. but I want to
Impress this on you, that when
this country has $50, O00, 900 Of
people they have got to do some-
thing; they have got to earn a
living.
Who will buy the goods?
Who will employ them? In
what shop are they to meet the
competition that England is
meeting today? And a million
and half of idle men asking
for bread in England and no
bread for thems except such as
charity doles out. They have
got to be carried out of Great
Britain and a new place found
for them. There is no other
solution.
1t is all well enough to talk
about what we are doing. Exa-
mine it closely and you will find
that we are doing nothing except
selling our natural resources and
exhausting them. When you
dig a ton Of ore out Of the ground
you can't plant another ton, as
you could potatoes; it is gone.
And when the fertility Of our
fields, the fertility Of the soil is
gone, where are we going to re-
place it from?
| am not going to find fault
with education; it never hurts
anybody. But il in place of
spending so much time and SO
much money on languages and
higher studies, we fitted them
for the life that they are going
to follow, for = the sphere in
which they are going to move,
we would do more for them. .
i know that in two or three,

more or less, railroads ia which
/ am interested. the payrolls
cover SO, 900 to 80, 900 people.
We have tried all manner Of
young men, college men, high
school men, and everything else,
and I will take a boy at fifteen
years old who has to make a
living his chances will be bet
ter if he has to contribute to the
support of a widowed mother
/ will take him and make a man
of him, and get him in the first
place, before you would get
most of the others to enter the
race with him; simply because
he has to work. He has to work,
he has the spur Of necessity; he
must work.
lie there be anything that you
can do, / feel sure that you will
all put your hands to the plough
and help; but you will never
build a city faster than you have
a country to support it. And
that is the first and the most inn
portant thing.
