It is next considered whether It is
best that capital shall hire laborers.
ana thus induce them to work by their
NY consent, or buy them and drive
them TO it without their consent
Having proceeded 50 far, it is naturally
concluded that all laborerS are either
hired labOrerS or what we call slaves
And further, it is assumed that who.
ever is once a hired labOrer is fixed
in that condition for life.
Nov, there is no such relation be.
tween capital and labor rs assumed
nor is there any such thing as a free
man being fixed for life in the condi
ton Of hired laborer. Both these as
sumptions are false, and all differences
from them are groundlesS.
Labor is prior to and independent
Of capital. Capital is only the fruit OF
labor, and could never have existed If
labor had not first existed. Labor is
the superior Of capital, and deserves
much the higher consideration. Capital
has its rights which are as worthy of
protection as any other rights. Nor Is
it denied that there is, and probably
always will be, a relation between
labor and capital producing mutual
benefits. The error is in assuming that
the whole labor OF the community
exists within that relation. A few men
Own capital, and that few avoid labor
themselves, and with their capital hire
or buy another few to labor for them.
y large majority belong to neither
class-neither work for others nor
have others working for them. In most
Of the southern states a majority Of
the whole people Of all colOrS are
neither slaves nor masters, while In
the northern a large majority are
neither hirers nor hired. Men, with
their families, wives, sons. and daugh-
ters-wOrk for themselves on their
farms, in their houses, and in their
shops, taking the whole product to
themselves, and asking nc fayOrs Of
capital on the one hand nor of hired
labOrerS or slaves on the other. 1t is
III lbI SOlttlI llul "a OoIISIhNi dDtC h'iIii
Der of persons mingle their w labor
with capital; that is. they labor with
their own hands and also buy or hire
others to labor for them; but this is
only a mixed and not a distinct class.
No principle stated is disturbed by the
existence Of this mixed class.
Again, as has already been said,
there is not of necessity any such
thing as the free hired laborer being
fixed to that condition for life. Many
Independent men everywhere in these
states Il few years back in their lives
were hired laborerS. The prudent,
penniless beginner in the world labors
for wages Il while, saves n surplus with
which to buy tools or land for him.
self, then labors on his own account
another while, and at length hires an
other new beginner to help him. This
is the just and generous and prosper
Gus system which opens the way TO all,
gives hope to all, and consequent en-
ergy and progress and improvement OF
condition to all. No men living are
more worthy tO be trusted than those
who toll up from poverty; 0 n less
inclined to take or touch aught which
they have not honestly earned"

Polishing Ores for Microscopic Study
Engineers of the department of the
interior assigned to the intermountain
experiment station of the bureau of
mines, Salt Lake City, Utah. have, in
connection with the metallurgical
work Of that station, performed ex-
perimental work on the polishing Of
ores for microscopic study and photo
graphing at high magnifications using
autochrome plates. The use of auto
chrome plates makes rendition in nat
ural cOlors possible and this will be
of great value in photographng min
erals, especially at high magniica-
tions. lt is a difficult matter to pre-
pare polished surfaces of ores in such
o manner that the harder minerals do
not stand out in too great relief from
the softer ores to prevent sharp TO-
cusing of both at high magnihcations.
Experimental work along these lines
is being carried on as opportunity per-
mits.

MOTOR CARS AND CROSSINGS.

(By Fred NJ. Metcalfe, superintend-
ent safety section, Northern Pacific
Railway)
An automobile load of motorists try
to get across the crossing ahead of a
train that is coming The train and
the automobile arrive at the crossing
at the same time. As soon as the
funerals of the motorists have been
held the chances are that the railroad
company will be sued for thousands
of dollars for having that train reach
that crossing at the same time that
the occupants of the car reached it.
According to most accidents at
grade crossings it is thought by the
relatives of the killed and injured,
that an engineer, when he approaches
a crossing, should stop his train. look
for oncoming automobiles. ring his
bell three or four minutes, and then
proceed to cross
But juries and judges are beginning
to see that the moral responsibility
for most accidents rests squarely upon
the highway travellers who, warned by
road signs. danger signals whistles
from the engineer, etc. are either in
too much of a hurry. have too much
hooch under their belts, or are too
to exercise just good COM
mon sense when about to drive across
railroad tracks.
But forgetting about who is to
blame, and who must pay, it usually
is driving that get killed or wounded
instead of the passengers that the en-
gineer is hauling All the money in
the world will not bring back a human
life that is lost. The driver of the car
should remember this. He should
think of the responsibility that is up
on his shoulders. In fact in most
grade crossing accidents it is the driv-
er of the car that should be sued, in
stead of the railroad company who
employs the engineer.
In the interest of public safety many
cities towns and villages have ordin-
lnces which restrict the speed of
trains within their corporate limits |
sometimes to eight miles per hour, but |
You never hear of an ordinance which |
places any restriction upon the speed /
IF motor vehicles approaching and |
passing over railroad crossings
hough trains are a public utility and /
motor vehicles are not. To be con-
iistent should not the motor vehicle |

How He Covered His Check and Later
Got Away With $4,000.


Got Away With $4,000.
(Fred Kelly in Nations Business)
A neighbor of mine dropped in at
meal time recently to tell me of a st.
Louis banker friend who met in a
.self-serve restaurant one of his own
employees. As the banker and his
clerk sat munching their simple ra-
tons, the employee happened to look at
his watch.
Handsome watch, that" remarked
the banker.
Yes" replied the clerk, lit is nice
watch Funny thing about that, too"
and he went on to tell how he hap
pened to buy the watch. 1t seems that
he was short of money at a road house
one night and was obliged to cash a
check for $40. though he CHANGED at
that moment to have no funds to his
credit. The next morning he tried to
borrow money to deposit before the
to raise more than So. While ponder
ing what TO do, he happened TO see
the sign of an installment jewelry
place There he bought a SIS watch
on down payment of S5-after prov
ing that he had a good business con-
nection-and a few minutes later he
pawned the watch for $40 which he
promptly deposited against the check
of the night before.
Il should Immediately have dis
the fellow" the banker said
in telling the clerks story. He was
too slick man to have around
bank. But l didn't and now-well,
sure enough. last week he got away
with $4,000"
