In , Watches, Clocks, Jewelry, Eta, We carry the best lines. The poor have a: number of regret- table. virtues and a few' redeeming vices. The rich frequently denounce the vices of the poor and occasionally praise their virtues; wherein they show much keener discernment {than the poor, who, mistakenly, are some what ashamed of their vices and often inordinately proud of their virtues, for their vices are detrimental to the in- g E’ E terests of their masters, while their g .

Among the most regrettable of their vistues are those of patience and for- bearance.' They have patiently en- dured their masters for centuries and have forborne to exterminate them, which proves their patience and for- bearance to be colossal. The poor, in- deed, are as.“a strong ass between two burdens.” With patience and ‘for- bearance they carry the grievous bur- den of their own poverty and the vast heard of their masters’ wealth. Other cardinal virtues of thepbor are their industry and thrift, for either of which it is hard to forgive them. Were they not so industrious, they would refuse to be worked so hard and so much; instead of which, so industrious are they that they clamor for work when there is no work to‘be'done ; and mis- guided enthusiasts, thoroughly con- vinced that industry is praiseworthy and deserving of encouragement, have sought, in the name of the poor, to have laws enacted to find ways and means to provide them with work, after they have already done all work that is necessary, and a great deal that is unnecessary besides.

As for their thrift, when it is con- sidered how industrious they are, the very idea that they should need to be thrifty is absurd. They, however, ap- pear to beimbued with the. idea that .. thrift is the secret of wealth, while in reality it is the hall-mark of poverty. Exactly how soon they can expect to be millionaires when they do well, when, they save $6.35 in three, weeks, ‘we “ require to know.” Their thrift . makes them wear shoddy clothes, eat shockingly bad victuals and inhabit shacks. ,Whereas, were they nnthrifty enough to insist on spending all they earn, they would soon be the wealth- iest people in the land, for they earn TOWN LEY BROS. , ans. sunset Fine Tailoring ' Call and see our stock of new goods.

And if we go trying to know the rea- son-why, we will soon have things coming our way. Let us take a pointer from the rich. That is n’t to say that we should let them give us a pointer. They have given us too many already, and it has not been for our good. But let us take one. Are they industrious? 01"" thrifty? Or patient? Or forbearing'l Not much. They are fat and well clothed and jolly. They do n’t go around looking for work, yet they ’ve a great deal more dignity than we have. They are not practising any of the virtues they preach to us.

The day that the capitalist ceased to have a function to perform in social production, the death-Warrant of his class was signed. It remains but to execute the sentence pronounced by the economic phenomena, and the cap- italists who may survive “theruin of their order will lack even the gro- tesque privileges of the pedigreed no~ bility to console them for the lost grandeur of their class.
