THE ROBBE‘R - BARON.
. P '
noes-~11. . Stand in that Relation or Should
' He he Idolized?
The question of labor and capital is
ever a growing one in the United States,
and both sides should be candidly pre
sented to the thinking masses. One’s
standpoint has largely to do with the way
he views the subject, and if the question
is ever settled it must be by material and
mutual concessions from the employer
and employed.
The New York Advertiser says: The
robber baron, so called, Andrew Carnegie,
is giving employment to 22,000 men, or in
other words has organized and is main-
taining useful manufacturing indus-
tries which give support to 110,000 people.
There are few employers of labor who
do not make a profit of 50 cents per day
upon the labor of the men they employ,
whether they are builders, masons, wood-
workers, wagonmak'ers, blacksmiths,
plumbers, painters, printers, paperhang-
ers, carpenters, bell hangers or barbers.
At the same rate of profit Mr. Carnegie
should make $11,000 per day, or for a. year
of 300 days $3,300,000. In his armor plate
mills alone $5,000,000 has been invested
and his total sales to date of armor plate
is less than that amount. He and his
partners have tens of millions more in-~
vested in rolling mills, blast furnaces,
iron mines, coal mines, limestone quar—
ries, coke ovens and steel works. Their
enormous investment is of no value unless
tlfiy operate these great industries, and
when they are worked to their full capa-
city they give employment to 30,000 men
and support to 150,000 people. This is as
many persons as the New York Central
Railway employs with $200,000,000 of
capital invested in stock and bonds.
It is a. wise charity to provide employ-
ment for those who cannot create em‘
ployment for themselves. Asylums for
the poor, aged, infirm, blind, deaf, dumb,
orphans and insane are noble monuments
to Christianity, but better still is the
organization of a great and beneficent
industry which gives employment to
30,000 men and at the same time blesses
humanity through the products which it
supplies. It was estimated when the
sugar refineries closed that 50,000 men
would be thrown out of employment, that-
250,000 people would lose their means of
support. And yet Mr. Carnegie and Mr.
Havemeyer are denounced by thousands
who never give a dime to charities and
have never organized a. beneficent labor
employing industry even upon a limited
scale.
The industries which Mr. Carnegie has
created and organized will continue long
after he has passed away to give honor-
able and Useful employment to tens of
thousan<‘:~ -.' men and will continue to
serve Immunity through the products
they creat r.
Her Answer to the Bishop.
The late Metropolitan of Canada, the
venerable Bishop hfiedley, never wearied
of telling the experience of his early years
of service. in that country. In those days
thz- roads were in a very primitive condit-
iou‘aml the country sparsely populaced,
rendering the journey from one back
wood settlement to another an unpleas-
ant not to say a very dangerous under-
taking.
The Bishop, however, made periodical
visits to the most outlying parishes of
his diocese in all seasons,aud in the most
inclement weather.
On one occasion a violent storm being ,
in progress, he was compelled to halt for
the night at a log cabin by the road-
side.
Arough but hearty welcome was ac-
corded him by the inhabitants, to whom
he was unknown. The man of the house
at once busied himself with the care of
the horses, while the woman set about
the preparation of the evening meal. As
the Bishop sat comfortably by the fire,
his first thoughts were of his mission to
that lonely neighborhood.
“My good woman,” said be, “are
there an) Episcopalians in this vicin-
ity?”
“I hardly know, sir,” she replied hesic
tatingly; “the men did kill something
under the barn yesterday, but whether or
not it was one those things I cannot say
for certain.”
Li's Long Head.
Li Hung Chang is playing his card with
great cleverness. \Vhen he tried, years
ago to improve the railroad system of
China, he met with such fierce opposition
from the Mandarins that he had to aban-
don his plau. Now he is able 'to point
out to the Emperor the fatal effect that
the want of proper communication has
had on national defences,
Perhaps the great Viceroy will be able
to play the role of Che Hwang 71's when
Japan insists on the opening up of the
country to foreign intercourse. It was
the Che I-Iwang Te Who substituted Gov‘
eruors and Viceroys for the little corrupt
Princes who ruled the separate States of
the Middle Kingdom. He raised such a
rumpus among the literati that to stop it
he had to order their books to be burned,
and also put some of the learned clerks
in the bonfire, along with their cherished
volumes. Ll Hung has a. great oppor-
tunity now to imitate his illustrious pre-
decessor of a couple of thousand years
ago.

Backache is a danger signal,
