Co-operatlon.

One of the wonders of the times is a
Pennsylvania. manufacturer who is a
free trader. We refer to Mr. A. B. -
Farquhar, of York, who is doinga large
and successful business, and who, we
have no doubt, owes much of his pros-
perity to conditions that have been
created by the policy of protection.

Mr. Farquhar finds time, amid the
cares of business, to write occasionally
for the press and to make a speech now
and then. On Labor Day he addressed
the workingmen of his own city, and,
as usual, said some things worth noting.
For example, he told the toilers that
”the relative condition of the manufact-
urer and workmen now is in favor Of
the workman as compared with thirty-
nine years ago, when I commenced
business. He further said that “if a
manufacturer of to-doy worked no
harder and watched his business . no
closer than he did thirty-five or forty
years ago he would soon break up."

Mr. Farquhar is an enthusiastic advo—
Icate of co-operation, and. he found on
that occasion a good opportunity for.
the utterance of wise admonition in
exploiting the co—operative doctrine.
He said :

“Every workman should have a pro-
prietary interest in the wealth of the
country. There should be the widest
diffusion of capital, especially in land.
But the only way to acquire capital is
to save it. The government cannot
give it to you without robbing some one
sets to get it. Co-operation is the only
true method, and every honest efi'ort of
workmen to put it in practice should be
encouraged ; and I for one thank God
for every success scored since it opens
the way for thousands to pass from de-
pendence and penury to freedom and
comfort. The Ville of depending upon
the nation or upon some one else in-
stead of one’s self is too common. The
nation has nothing whatever to do with
the affairs of its citizens further than to
protect them from foreign interference,
to preserve order, and prevent one man
from invading the rights of another.
Private enterprise builtup this country,
felled its forests, drained its swamps,
erected its towns, excavated its mines,
dug its canals, and made its roads, and
invented the innumerable labor-saving
machines that have enabled the poor-
est” workman to live in more comfort to-
day than the wealthy classes did a_ few
hundred years ago.” '

There may be those who will question
the practibility of an early and general
introduction of the co-operative plan,
but there are few who will question its
desirability. If the workingmen own-
ed large interests in the factories and
mines, labor disturbances would be

very unusual occurrences.
degree of success has attended a few co-
OperatIVe experiments, and we hope
for a growth of the sentiment in favor
of that plan. What Mr. Farquhar says
in regard to sell-dependence is timely

and true.

Something of the Horrible,

 

As doctors and lawyers have to deal
with the horrible as well as with the
pleasant things in life, it was to be ex-
pected that some of the former would
come before the medico-legal congress,
in New York, last week. But it was
scarcely deemed likely that the dis-
tinguished practitioners in law and
medicine assembled on that occasion
would discuss so gruesome a topic as
the question whether a physician is
ever justified in taking the life-of his
It. was generally supposed
that the progress of mankind had left
all that sort of thing in the dim and
distant past. This supposition, how-
That question
was broached and discusssed, and—
strange as it may appear—there were
two sides in the debate. Albert Bach,
vice president of the society, contended
that, under certain circumstances, a
patientought to be killed. He re-
ferred, of course, to the victim of a
painful and incurable disease, such as
cancer of the tongue. In such a case it
seemed to him only humane to end the
patieht’s misery, and he thought the
world would yet see commissions ap-
pointed to pass upon just suchEcases.

The lawyers present were inclined to
agree with Mr. Bach, but the. doctors
did not take kindly to the proposition.
On the contrary, they agreed with Dr.
Quinby, of Jersey City, who declared
‘thata “physician has no right to ter-

patient.

ever, was erroneous.

minate the life of patient, even when to .

prolong that life is‘ to cause most agon-
izing tortures.”

It would not be diflicult to construct
a plausible argument in favor of Mr.
Bach’s position. A formidable array
of facts. might be cited in its support.
Long periods of awful suffering might
be prevented by helping the victims of

incurable disease to make their exit
from life. But the sacredness of hu-
man life has grown in the appreciation
of mankind with every step that has
been made in the progress of civiliza-
tion. To adopt Mr. Bach’s suggestion
would be a resumption of one of the
usages of barbarism. The trend of pub-
lic sentiment is in the reverse direction.

The highest ideal of the physicians
skill has ever been. to save and not to
destroy life. The greater the world’s
advancement in civilization, knowledge
and culture, the stronger this sentiment

grows.

 

 

Mother’ Repo t
“Hood’s Sarsaparilla, is an excellent

medicine. I have taken it for catarrh and

impure blood and it has given me a good
appetite and strength. My husband
has also taken it and he is now in good
health. When he feels a little run down
he gets a bottle of Hood’s Sarsaparilla,
and before it is gone he is all right and is
able to work all the time. I give it to my
baby occasionally, and we have never had
to have a doctor attend her.” MRS.
