EDI-ton Ream. Woaan z-hThero'is a great
social‘problem that must be solved speedily,
or the result will-die ruin our to the country.
There is tic-day ‘in’ :th‘eU'ait’ed States a great
army of unemployed ’men. They and their
families elther'are,’ or soon willb'e', reduced
to the necessity of'begging, stealing 0r starv-
ins- This is truly a terrible condition :of‘
things; Many and various are the opin-
ions given as to its cause, but the majority.
I believe, agree that it is over production
of labor saving machinery. A little thought-
ful consideration will prove" both of these
assertions to be absolutely false and absurd.
The idea of there being an over-production
of breadstuffs, when there are thousands
starving; of manufactured materials, when
there are so many destitute! ‘ .
There never can A be an over-production
till the wants of all are supplied. It re-
quires no argument to prove this assertion,
it being axiomatic in its nature. ' In regard
to the second point—the introduction :01.
labor-saving machinery. , I must confess my
unbounded astonishment-at the views of‘so
many intelligent men. In a'recent number
of the Rural, one of your gifted correspond-
ents, Thomas D. Russell, makes some truly
astounding assertions. He says “myriads
of labor-saving machines have been invent-
ed without benefitting the class whose ser-
vice they supplant, indeed in most cases the
result has been exactly the reverse. They
rob men of their occupation without reim-
bursing them for their loss,” Quoting from
the St. Louis Republican, he says; “A ma-
chine which does the Work of one hundred
men is undoubtedly a greatvbeuefit to socioty ~
at large, but what Mcomes of the mop...
.Theyle either thrown out. of employment
or compelled to Work for reduced wages."
If the use of machinery were confined _to
only a few departments of industry, the
neocle displaced Lmishl Mm something 9‘39 '
and not be idle or poolry paid. Truly when ‘
the blind lead the blind, they both fall into
the ditch. That the publicipres's—that
storehouse of ‘knbwledge'fi‘om "which the
masses derive their information, and which
exerts such" a powerful influence in
forming public- opinion—should ‘ teach and
circulate such dangerously false doctrines,
is truly nlarming,andgreatly to bedeplored.
All labor-saving machinery, from‘the spafde
and 'wheelbmow :up to the spinning. jen-
ny and steam .cngine,..is‘ the greatest bless-
ing {to the laboring classes. And no argu.
ment can be urged in opposition to the spade
and wheelbarrow. The civilization and pic-

had machinery never. been introduced toas-
sist in the production of .cloth or in’the inan-
ufacture of: ,fiour,; it is evident that the
‘ farmer would have to labor for several
months to supply the weaver with flour, and
the weaver wouldlllve. tolsbo'r months in
return. tonsupplyn the farmer with clothing.
and both 'wouldh'ave to work incessantly
to procure, the barenecesaitles of life. No,
the more labor-saving machinery there is, the-
greater will be discomfort and enjoyment
of all classes. ' ' - ~ .
Labor-saving machinery does not deprive
men of their occupation, but on the cont ,
it creates an additional demand for. labor.
There is a larger, and -. very much. larger
number of persons engaged in the manufac-
turo of cotton and woolen goods, than there
was before the invention and application of
labor-spving machinery to this branch‘ of
industry. The same is true in watches, and
we find that this principle holds good1 in
nearly every instance in which labor-saving
machinery has been introduced to assist in
production. How can we explain this fact i
The explanation is very‘simpie. The cost
of production being greatly reduced, the de
mand for the articles produced has increased
injeorresponding ratio. The nearer nothing
anythingcosts, the greater will be the num-‘
ber of those who will - enjoy it, and anything
that can be obtained without labor, willbe
free to all, because it will have no value.
The price of everything is not money, but
labor. Mr. A. workslfor Mr. B., and receives
one dollarfillr. C. works] for Mr. A., and
receives one dollar, and then Mr. B. works
for 0., and receives his original dollar back
again. It is evident that had each worked
for fifty cents, oronly one.ce'nt, it would
have made no difierence. The labor of A...
B. and C. respectively, was valued by each
one dollar, butthiugs equal to the same thing
are equal to each other; therefore, they ex-
changed equal all round. 'If a farmer sells
wheat for one dollar per bushel, and buys
muslin for ten cents a yard, he receives ten
yards offnuslin for one bushel of Wheat. If
he sells his wheat for fifty cents, and buys
muslin for five cents per. yard, there is no
practical difl'erencevin the prices lie-receives.
for his two crops. 'He .gets in {reality just
as muchln line's-eunuch other. Money
- therefore, fs-me'rely -a measure by which the
_....
creationism-mu be determined. to order
that an exchange may take place. We can
best demonstrate the value. perhaps, of labor-
saving machinery by a simple illustration.
Suppose, for example; ninety men are on—
gaged' in the manufacture of shoes. Now
suppose by the introduction of machinery
thirty men can produce jthe same number
of shoes at one-third the cost. Does this
mean that the other sixty men' must. re-
msn idle? Not at all. It means that the
ninety men will produce with the help of
machinery, three times as many shoes as
before. The cost of production having been
reduced to one-third of the former amount,
the demand will increase in a corresponding
ratio. Experience has proven this to be-
so.- But let us look a little further. It the
cost of shoes before the introduction of ma-
chinerywas six dollars per pair, and labor
was ' a'dollar per day, then every laboring
man had to work six days for a pair of shoes,
but after the introduction of machinery, he
only Ins to work two days. He, therefore,
can remain idle the other four days, and
stillbe as well off; but if he continues to
work, he will not only be able to satisfy
some other want, but can afford to sell
his labor, or like article produced by it at
slower price. .The increased demand for
labor in its manufacture and production—
hence you see, the business of the tanner,
the farmer and of those who manufacture
the tools for the tanner and‘ farmer, all re-
ceives stimulation. The introduction of
labor-saving machinery is undoubtedly an
unalloyed blessing. It means in this case,
that more people shall be provided: with
shoes with less labor to themselves, while at
the same time it stimulates business in other
branches of industry. The laboring class,
without the introduction of labor-saving
machinery, would be more beasts of burden.
Not receive any benefit i Why they owe
I their civilization to ill influence. But, fee.
tories are closed. Capital is idle, and men
are unemployed and starving, because there
is no demand? There must be a remedy.
There is hardly an acre of land in this state.
. but ooald be'made to produce three times
xilizing and more thorough culture. This
means more labor is mad on the farm,
why, then, do not farmers buy more labor ?
The reason is very plain. The farmer takes
his labor to market, and sells it at market
price. If he buys labor, he buys it to sell
again The farmer has to pay from fifteen
to twenty dollars per month for labor, but
when he takes it' to market lathe shape of

six to ten. It don‘t pay to buy labor on the
farm, __for. the simple reason that it is too
high, it is above the market price. Farmers
our cities, because freight is to high. There
are acres of grass in this neighborhood that
will not be cut, because it will not pay to
ship it, because freight is to high. This is
hardly ti‘i‘aill'oad‘ missionary ‘thiit'is pay-
ing expenses. The companies cannot afford
to reduce the rates, because they pay so
much for labor. Labor on our railroads is
therefore too high, it is above the market
rates. There would be a strong demand for
the products of our cotton and woolen fac-
tOries, at a slight reduction, but the manu-
facturer says “I am making nothing now,
Iain compelled to pay a fixed price for la—
her, and I cannot bring that labor into the
market and sell it for what I gave for it. "
If the manufacturer attempts to reduce the
price of libor, a strike is the result, and
though there are these among the operators
who are willing to work at the reduced rate.
yet they are in every instance forcibly pre—
vented from doing so. The operators thus
say, practically, to the capitalist, "You must
buy our labor at our price, and sell it at a
loss to yourself." This, capital very natur—
ally declines to do, and either remains idle
or seeks other channels of investment. La-
bcr without capital is helpless. Men there—
fore are idle and starving. Our country
remains undeveloped' and we are becoming
more impoverished every day.
The root of the whole evil is because
certain kinds of labor is forced above the
market price, it is forced there and kept
there by the foulest and most unjust means.
Suppose a majority of the farmers of this
State were to demand more than the market
value for their wheat. and that they com-
pelled all the rest to hold their wheat at the
same price, it is evident that there would be
no demand for the wheat till it came down,
and such a course on the partpof the farmers
would receive Ithe just condemation of the
country; yet this would only be a farmers'
strike. This is just what the majority of
the laboring class say tolhe rest : “You may
your labor at the market price." There is
no demand for labor as long as it is held
above the market value. There are in the
country thousands of men who would work
:onour railroads and in our factories at the
necessary reduction but they are forcibly
prevented from doing so, and as a conse- ,
queuce labor and capital are both unproducé
tive, and humanity suflers . ’
The most precious liberty, and the dear—
est right on earth is'the liberty and right
which a man. has to sell his labor at his own
price. ' When this right is denied to any”
man, the law of - supply and demand is
fiolatéd, and as this law is as unalter-
able in its nature as the physical. laws
that govern the universe, its violation is
inevitably followed by the most disastrous
consequences. The man who forcibiypre-
vents others from disposing of their labor
at its market value, commit a most disastrous
crime against society. They are striking at
the very'foundatiou of our social edifice,
and “success crown their efforts to any
considerable extent, it will end in the im-
poverishment of our country, in anarchy and
the shedding of blood, and ultimately in the
destruction and overthrow of our political
institutions.
Agricultural products represent the labor
of the farmer. and manufactured products
the labor of the manufacturer. Now when
these products are brought into the market,
they are sold, or rather exchanged, for their
market value, and if the farmer or manu-
facturer buys labor to assist him in this pro-
duction, it is evident that he cannot give
more for it than he receives. Demand and
supply must regulate‘the price of all labor.
Every man must be free to sell his labor at
the market price. But then, says [some
reader, capital would oppress labor. Not
so. There is too much idle capital. The
moment capital makes: anything like a fair
percentage in a business, more capital is
ready to enter the same field, and thus create
an additional demand for labor. To make my
meaning more plain, let me illustrate. If a
mod builds a factory to make cotton cloth,
and buys labor at such a price that he. is able
to make anything like a fair profit on’_ his in-
vestment, more capital will seek the 'same
investment. Another factory will be built,
andthc demand for labor increased. Capi-
talists are men who buy and sell labor, and
the competition among them is so great that
they are willing to buy and sell on very
small margins, hence the market price of
labor is all it is worth.
Capitalist are men who help men to exchange
their labor. .. For example, the operator in a
cotton factory wants to'exchunge his labor
.with the farmer, that is, the operator wants
bread, and the farmer wants clothing. Now
the capitalist steps in and furnishes the ma-
chinery by which the operator is able to
change the raw cotton into cloth, and by
which the wheat is made into flour, and then
capital carries the flour to the operator and
the cloth to the farmer,but the operator wants
so much flour for his labor in making the,
cloth, and the farmer wants so much cloth
for‘his labor in raising the wheat that capital
gets nothing for its trouble. or perhaps is an
actual letter by the operation, consequently
the factory is shut up, the mill is idle, and.
the operator goes without his cloth. The
fault here, however,‘rests more with the op-
erator than with the farmer, because the lat-
ter is willing to sell his labor at the market
price, while the operator will not sell his in-
bor at the market price, nor will he let any-
one else takehis place who will—and just
berets the secret of all our trouble. Prevent
strikes and intimidation. Let all men be free
to sell their labor at themarket price, if they
so desire, and business will revive, and pros-
perity will again dawn on our land. A man
who is unwilling to take the market price for
his labor is unfair, because he demands more
than he gives, since he obtains the labor of
‘others at this price. A general reduction in
the price of labor must take place, for just as
long as it is held above the market, there will
be no demand for it. But after all, this re-
duction will only be a seeming reduction, for
if the operator's wages were only half what
they were before, if he can buy as much
bread and meat for half a dollar, as he bought
before for a dollar,hQin reality receives just
as much, sincehe works for the bread and
meat, and not the half dollar. If the farmer
can buy as much cloth for a bushel of wheat
today as he did a year ago, why it makes no
difference tohim if the nominal value has de-
clined nearly one-half. But he can’t for the
simple reason that while he is obliged to take
the market price for his labor, the operator
prefers to remain idle, or even beg from the
farmer rather than sell his labor at the mar—
ket price. So much for the cause of our pres-
ent difficulties. .
This fact remains, however, the country is
full of idle capital, of idle, starving and ties.
perate men. We are approaching a crisis at
which something must be done, or the results
willbe perfectly appalling. The question
then as to how the cause of the troubles may
be removed is of vast and national impor-
fence.
1 behave that this question maybe satisfac.
tor-ily answered by the accomplishment of
three things:
let. The government must guarantee to
every man the right to sell his labor at the
market price, and it must grant to him the
fullest protection in the exercise of this con.
stitutioual privilege. '
2d. It must give absolute protection to
property.
3d. That the masses must be educated to
understand much more thoroughly than,they
do now the relation existing between capital
and labor.
In.order that the first and second of these
propositions may be carried out let every
state organize an effective state militia. Let
all men between the ages of twenty-one and
forty-five be required to serve as members of
this force. . Let them drill regularly and at
stated intervals, and let mutiny and disobedi-
ence to a superior officer he punisbed?just as
