Save Your Fruit.—The fruit
crop will be nnuauMly abundant this
year, and every funii'.y should prepare to
save it, not only for home use, but for
market. Every housewife can readily
It urn to put up all kinds of fruit. Aside
from the expense of the jars, which will
lust a lifetime, the cost is very light; and
there is no farm industry more profitable
than canning fruit. If every family would
pul up such a supply as to make fruits a
part of the daily diet the year round,
there would be n great saving of doctors’
bills, to say nothing of the luxury of
having choice fruits at all seasons. Col.
Huggins has made arrangements to meet
a large demand for several of the best
cans in use, and families or dealers will
be supplied by him on good terms.

is perfectly wild to build a hotel of

We have these monuments of folly to
witness for themselves. This creates aU
the trouble with railroad building. It
appears to have become fashionable to
build roads of ten times the carrying
capacity that is needed, just as if they
could not be improved from time to

the plumb line a'nd the just guide
and standard between those wbo
buy and those who sell labor?—
These are questions which disturb
civilized society continually. Gov
ernments are shaken to their very
walls and deepest foundations by
them. .Their true answer involves
the rights of labor and the rights of
capital To come to a correct solu
tion requires n knowledge of the
whole theoiy of true political econ»
oinv. To enforce such solution
when put in practical shape in
volves the whole science of legisla
tion ami government. It is the
leading question, and we may well
say the only dangerous question
which agitates modern States. As
civilization progresses, as wants are
refined and subtilized, as labor is
more and more divided, ami as the
employment of capital tends more
and more T& its own advantage, so
does ttC^^btion: of due relation
between Iqppr and capital,, between
workmnn pnd employer, become
continually more and more compli
cated and vexing. Sometimes pub
lic sympathy sides with those who
sell their tfaily labor for scant daily
wages, seeing that those who buy
cheap labor grow rich upon the
profits; sometimes, but much more
seldom, tile public, seeing combina
tions and strikes which seem unjust
and damaging to the interests of
emp’oyera as well as injurious to
society and cnfoiced idleness, lend
their sympathies to those who seem
willing to pay fair prices fi r good
work regularly iwrtbrmed. When
these labor strikes, combinations
and revolts degenerate into license,
dissipation, violence and unwar
rantable dictation, the popular sen
timent becomes almost general
losses. Changes in rates of wages
should be made with much care,
but they are often strictly necessa
ry. Concert among miners and
mine-owners as'to the wages they
cau afford to pay are just as natural
os agreements and pledges among
operatives as to the rates at which
they wiU work. But in each case
these agreements should lie tempo
rary and entirely voluntary. The
best rule is absolute freedom on
both sides.

stack of three heavy calendar rollers,
each weighing 3,600 lbs. From these it
goes through another stack of seven rol

thence to the cutter, where it is counted
into quires, lmled, and made ready for

in the various processes necessary to
transform the most unsightly piles of rags
into the glossy sheets, ready for the prin
ter. In every department the most ap
proved and complete machinery is used,
and in all respects the Pioneer is a first
class mill. Mr. Doblinski, who is skilled
in his art, and familiar with the best mills
in this country and Europe, selected the
machinery, last year, and the buildings
were remodelled, and put in complete
order for all the wants of a mill of the
largest capacity. A 64 inch “Fourdenicr”
mnehine was bought, with the very best
chilled calender rollers^nnd all those
parts usually finished with wood or iron,
are of brass and copper, securing cleanli
ness. freedom from rust, and a precision
oi motion that is really wonderful. The
machine alone, with nil its fixtures, cost
817.000, and the working capital, in
buildings and other incilities employed
by the comnany, reaches a little over
880,000. The machine formerly employ
ed on printing paper, has boen overhauled
and is to be employed exclusively
wrapping.
The capacity of the mill is 4,000 lbs. of
printing paper per day.
The main building is of brick, 250 feet
by 45. The water power is furnished
from Barber’s Creek. A Leffel water
wheel of 104 horse power is used. A
Harrison Engine of 50 horse power is also
employed.
The paper made by this mill will com-

again 1861. Its present complete and

against the Strikers and in favor of
the employers.
A large part of all this debate
and difficulty would be removed hy
a few plain and obvious considera
tions :
1. Capital is free.* The owner or
representative of money may keep
it idle and suffer the loss of increase,
or he may employ it by lending or
investing it in manufacturing en
terprise, or in any one of the num
berless shapes in which capital can
be put so that it may yield a due
return. Whether iu the lorm of
money or of property, capital is ac-
cumulfitetl representa
tive of the values created by labor
at some former time.
The mechanic who by his thrift
saves a thousand dollars, may, at
his option, pay it in wages to other
mechanics, or he may loan it for
sixty, eighty or a hundred dollars
of annual wages or interest,' or he
may put into a house that will pay
him a fair rent So he who lias
amassed a hundred times as much
has an equal right to use it in hon
orable trade, to loan it at the mar
ket rate, or to invest it in any
property that will pay to him a fair
and safe’income. If he puts his
into a mill lie can employ just as
many and ji&t as few operatives as
he needs, nor ought he to be com
pelled to pay any other or higher
wages than such as arc fixed by the
law of supply and demand.
2. Capital is not only free, but i’s
relations are so sensitive that re
straining laws would merely drive
it out of sight and out of use, just
so soon as the attempt should be
made to prescribe the use to which
it should be limited.
3. Laboff Is likewise, and even to
a greater extent, free. There is
nothing which can compel the la
borer to give his services to any
named employer, or at any desig
nated price. If he can make better
wages by working on his own ac
count, or in combination with other
opemtitrdi^is-’iiberty to do it -re
mains without restraint or bin-
dranee. He may work at bis own
foige, bench, or loom, or he may
join his labor in an enterprise which
combines a thousand forges or
benches or looms in one, with profits
increased by the infinite subdiviss
ion of labor, and by the employ
ment of the best attained machinery
for paying labor.
4 Labor of all kinds is worthy of
reward. This includes mere mus
cular exertion which scarcely re
quires an operation of tbe mind,
and also labor of the mind alone, as
well as all intermediate kinds of
skill and mixed employment, The
proprietor and capitalist who not
oidy risks his means but also gives
his anxious- thought and study to
his mill, his mine, his bank, or bis
railroad earns wages which are not
to be measured by tbe salaries of
clerks, or the. per diem of conduc
tors, sailors or operatives.
6. Tbe valffie of labor cannot just
ly be measured according to the ex
ceptional profits or losses of em
ployers and capitalists. In prosper
ous seasons a reasonable margin
must be left for past or anticipated
