SYMPATHY. We wouldn’t give two figs for that neighborly sympathy which is called to life only by the hush of death, j aried people who call on Heaven to And that is one reason why some witness that .whatever happens they President'Cleveland \yill be re membered for his remark that "We are confronted with a condition and not a theory.” Thbt'T^eniinently Jmue -oTouT - present day,conditions. As stated in one of inii- highest trade journals “Prices are high, and show tendencies to go higher. Wages are high, with an upward tread. When prices rise wages must follow, When wages go up priee?”rrmst fceep pace. Hie tfage-earner demands that prices drop while wages remain stationary or even corrtinue to go up; th ployer of labor hjis about given up hopes that wages will ever decline, but insists that prices,'must "go up while wages remain the same. - Be tween these two. millstones of wages and prices are some millions of sai ls one reason why folks do not like the public card of thanks." There should be no occasion for thanking fttlks for simply doing thetrydyjyl If your home catches fire it stands to reason the neighbors will help you to save what they can. If you are stricken by,the death of k a member of the family it is only common decency upon the part of your fi lends to come to your aid. And yet this mere assistance is so rare that we have seen strong men with tears streaming down their faces as they felt the heart-break of* parting with a loved one say, “What would we do without fnends?” This noble attribute “of; sympathy ought not to be so rare that only death or disaster can call it int2 being: We ought to ^practjcellit toward our neighbor every day of our lives. You don’t know *how a showing of interest, a kind word or a hearty hand-clasp may strengthen the poor devil who is Trudging unde* a load to keen hiddea from the public gaze. And, then, there is Mother. , It happens they must pay.” 3* , ^ " This, mess in whiclr we find our .selves has-received n thousand and one curentlta. We do hot believe that we can improve on some that have been prescribed. It is to be noted that while {he employer is ask ing for increased production that labor is asking for shorter hours and decreased output. During *wi struction near Charleston it was no unccommon sight to see the laborers •0 on truck farms * giving a bare tea hours for a da^’$ work instead of trom sun to sun. When these labor ers bought, in open market the vege tables raised by them they were con- trouted With higher prices because they had increased the cost of pro duction: ^Increased production with tbe same overhead charges is one way out.
