THE REVOLUTION AT THE NORTH-THE BEGIN.


MING OF THE END


The rrepressble conflict between capital and free la
bor in the North which recently broke out in Lynn and
extended to other towns in Massachusetts, ani to the
neibboring State of New Hampshire will soon spread in
other directions over New England and probably over
all the Northern States. II is the beginning of Ievou-
ton In the North-poltca manufacturing and comm r-
cal The fire has been hnd.td, and who shall stay the
dayournr flames whilst they have such an abundance of
comhustble material TO feed upon and are famed info
activity by the potent agitation of white slave
Stimulated 10 deeds of desperation, not By mere polite
wrongs but by the sharp pqngS OF hunger and by the
destitute condition OF their wives and children -
The attempt Of the leaders OF the antayery party in
tbe North 10 omen. an unqucnchaba war between the
capal and the negro labor Of he South has recoed a.
ready in fearful reibutOn the North aud kindled
contest between Northern capital aud the sOcaed free
labor of white men of the Caucasian ace-inen free to
work al prices bg which they and their little ones
must stsrye slowly and b. inches or free to refuse 10
work such terms anu d'e al once rapid and sudden
death from the effects OF famine


The hostile attitude of the an7iyery party which has
gained the ascendant in almost every State north of Ma
son and DixOus line has forced the South into CORES
pondng attitude OF defence and defiance aud the result
Is that great number. OF The Southern merchants have
refused 10 deal with asslchnSatts capitalists for shoes
and other articles and the consequence of that move
meut is that they have surplus stock, without market
aud they compelled to discharge many OF their hands
and reduce the wages OF the rest to starvation prices
Hence the strikes and the commencement of a Soca'
manufacturing and cOumerci"l revolution which will
every day gain strength and intensity and extend to eve
nv branch business the North and real estate
will share the genera ruin The unfortunate men and
women thrown out Of employment by the criminal folly
of Northern agitltors cannot live upon air. Either they
must emigrats in thousands, the most sweeping
changes mus, Immediately take place in the legislation
of the New England States, giving labor protection
against capital bv regulating hours aud prices aud thus
compelling capital either retire from the field Of ac-
yity afford labor the mt ans OF sustaining existence
or the socasc system of the French provisional gov
ernment in the revolution Of 1913, establishing Safe
rk shops must be adopted so as to bring down capt
70 the level oflabor-wh,ch would be all very fine Tor
the wormcn s long as it lasted. Such is the prospect
before the New England States and they may bless their
il they escape the boodshed and confusion the
rebellion and revolution, which their leading men have
been so long preparing IN vain for the South


Every dly the evil will increase, because every day
that Northern labor i. unemployed poverty will become
poorer and discomfort will be exaspcrdted Will, all the
time the breach between the North aud the South is
widening, and the preparations Of the Southern States
manufacture for themselves are Fastening to compile
ion; and nothing is wanting TO con,ummac total alC-
nation and 20 place an impossible gulf between North
and South, but the triumph OF th republican creed uezt
fall To that al that has yet taken place is but III be-
ginning of sorrows-.he foretlstc OF the bitter cup {
retrbuion in store for the North which will overflow
with uated caamites and which she must drink
TO the dregs.


On the other hand the equilibrium between the r.a.
ons of labor and capital in the South undi,turoed,
and there is the perfect harmony between the
ter and the slave So far from any Of the negroes Of the
Southern planters being in want OF the first necessars
of lie they earn, after all their wants being suppi
ed and after satisfying the demands OF their masters
wha. would purchase their freedom, if they did pre-
fer the protection and happy security afforded them
against want in sickness old age by the justice and
bcuefcencc of the Southern in tuition IL is estimated
that the savings OF the negroes OF the South, though
,hrftess race who not for money amount to one
hundred millions of dollars. In every age and every
country there has been continual conflict between free
labor and capital in which labor has been always worst
ed though sometimes capital has been doomed TO signal
suffering. The New England States exception to
the rule


Under the fortunate combina'io7 Of circumstances in
the South labor can never suffer there does at the
North The land which is of boundess wea III and fer
tiiy is there, and the cotton which it grows is there,
aud the demand for II the whole earth is ncessant
aud greater than the South supply In the bcuevo-
lent patrilrcha and humane institutions Of the Southern


states alone to be found any adequate provision or l.
gal immunity for the laborng man. Nor is the negro
degraded chatte pretended by the abolitonist
aud William II. Seward lie is regarded as a person in
the eve Of the law and his master who has property
either IN his soul or body beyond his mere labor,
amenab'c the laws if he is guilty OF cruelty injustice

to Justice and feeling OF mutual good will eX
-;ed between the white SJut planter and the black
aborer born his estate aud bound 10 him for life sell
