THE LAB0B QUESTION..
Address Delivered Beiore the Amalgamated Labor Union of Terre Haute, by S. Chriaty.
[A motion that the daily newspapers of Terre Haute publish the address, was unanimously carried.]
Self defense is said to be one of the first laws of nature but if we may form coDclusions|upon this subject from events of recent date—such as the impoverish ment of workingmen and their families, in the reduction of wages it would seem that this law has been repealed so far as human nature is concerned but if I may be permitted to make a rather homely comparison, it is not so with animals of a lower order. The dog will snarl over, and fight to the death for his bone, and so throughout the entire range of creatures excepting man. Man, created in the image of God, and only a little lower than the angels, will toil day and night at the most exhausting pursuits, until his heart aches and throbs, for a sum that will purchase a mere necessaiy quantum of the coarsest food and raiment for him and those dependent upon him and when the whim or caprice of his employer causes a reduction of the beggarly pittance of wages, he is expected to bow submissively to the mandate of greed and parsimony, and struggle on with his poorly requited tasks, without a murmur or complaint, and accept the ruling of capital with a submission and humality as though it were the fiat of Omnipotence promulgated from the skies. That this is true, the entire industrial world furnishes material evidence every day ip the most unmistakable and overwhelming manner. Then, is it not right and proper that men who earn a subsistence by honest exertion, should organize, and concentrate their power and influence to ameliorate now, and ward off hereafter the want, misery and menial dependence in which the sordid avarice of their more fortunate fellow mortals aro striving to envelop them a* with a mantle? They should move for their rights they should make an earnest and unfaltering advance toward securing and enjoying a full share of the blessings and luxuries which the Creator has lavished upon the earth without stint—the only natural requisite to the possession and enjoyment of which being a well directed and earnest industry and whoever thwarts an honest, industrious man in achieving all that is necessary to render him physically above want, is not only oppressing man, but violating one of the most beneficent laws of nature and of nature's God. If our condition is bettered, the achievement must be our own we must not wait for "something to turn np," but resolutely go to work and turn the bright side of things toward us, so that the light of prosperity and happiness may pleasantly illume the dark and rugged paths that the laboring people have been forced into in creating wealth for, and supporting ten thousand royal families—for it has come to this in free America, that these royalists—the Vanderbilts, Astors, Goulds, and many other money princes, can circumscribe the size of a workingman's purse directly, and indirectly prescribes, the texture of his garments and the quantity and quality of his food. God help the man whose welfare is left to the greed and far reaching remorselessness of the cool, calculating, heartless legion of cent, per cent. Shylocas who now control the laboring masses of this country, and deal out the amount of prosperity each workingman shall enjoy, as though it were a gift from them, and. not doubly earned by labor. By judicious and clearheaded management we can secure for ourselves and families all that it necessary to com fort, without making beggarly calcula tions as to how much it will cost to feed a family of five or six the year round on mush and hominy alone. There is enough for all—if it were not so the Deity himself would be at fault and his plans a failure. As it is now, some have more than they can enjoy—while many, very many, have not enough, andSsuffer. Now workingmen do not aim to take from that which is already accumulated by any man, but to so protect themselves against the grabbing propensity of hu man nature, that in the future labor shall receive a reward commensurate with the efforts put forth. This is all that needed to cure the evils—for as I have already stated, labor produces enough and more than enough for all but to secure our just proportion, we must place in active operation all the means which the laws of God and man have placed at our disposal and use them in building around our interests an ir vulnerable bulwark votection and self-defense.
Every of capital in the world has been created by labor. This proposition is just as obvious as that finite power cannot create something from nothing. This being the case, is there any just reason why the producers of that capital should not receive, have and enjoy a proportionate share of the same? What arrogance, what a stretch of presumption for a weak mortal creature to assume to himself the authority ot placing (without contradiction) a price upon ihe labor that makes him rich. Should not the toiling, drudging workingmen have a potent voice ih this matter? The capitalist savs: '-No I should settle that affair because my capital is invested, and the workingmen invest not one dollar he runs no risk, while lace ia jeopardy my entire fortune "hat rounds remarkably pleasant and plausible, but I say that the man who crawls upon his hands and knees through the dark, damp and narrow passages of a coal mine and brings to light the fuel that drives a million industrial wheels and protects us from the severity of winter, has more invested in that mine than all the wealth ot a Croeseua amounts to. He has his life invested, as well as ttie support and hapiness of hia family at stake. That breath of life which the Eternal God breathed into him is liable to be crushed out at any moment, and what amount cf gold and silver! equal to that? Who can draw the parallel and arrive at a conclusion in favor ot capital. He faces death every moment and never flinches* I say that ht has mere invested than any amount of capital in any shape is worth. What is the world and all its wealth to a man when placed against his life? If William Vanderbilt considers his life of more importance than his

bushels for receiving and discharg- jan^ mouses, his ships and railroads, ing grain. }bis gold and silver, his bonds and dia-
monds—which he most assuredly does— then the poor miner has more invested than the rich proprietor from whom he receives the smallest sum for his services at which capidity can possibly drive a bargain. Too low an estimate has been placed upon the producing classes that estimate has been placed upon them by those who do not produce, and the suffering parties have quiescently accepted the valuation placed upon them by the financial patricians. It is time that they should repudiate this and assume a sta tus fixed in part at least, by themselves.
The remark that labor is just like any other commodity in the market—com, wheat or lumber, for instance—although true in a prima facia sense, is in reallity a eoarse and heartless expression, degrading to humanity, and not entirely correct in point of fact. If the lite efforts of an immortal being in behalf of himself and others, are to be spoken of and considered in comparison with a pile of rock or lumber—a mere matter of sale—thai the man himself is about the same, as apiece of property, to be bought and sold in fact, a mere slave. This contemptuous manner of speaking of labor, is a relic of barbarism, a shadow from those dark ages when, not only labor, but men were bought and sold. This possibly may the case again, for the world's movements on the labor question during the past few years have been of a retrograde instead of a progressive nature and consider it to be the mission of the Amalgamated Union to so ihape and direct industrial atfairs that the reward of labor shall henceforth all be progressive and tend to augment the poor man's volume of happiness! There is only one advantage that American labor posesses over that of Europe, and that is, it has been, and is yet to some extent, better paid. That distinction is fast fading away. The same causes work the same results all over the world, and if we permit one party (employers), to regulate our affairs entirely for us—their interest bring to pay the lowest possible wages, our modicum of prosperity over that of the old world laboring classes will soon vanish like any other advantage that is not cared for and protected. Human life, when lashed and scourged through the world by the cruel stripes that avarice, un checked inflicts upon the back of honest labor, is a burden and a curse. Robert Burns that incomparable genius, the workingman-poet of the world, as well as of Scotland, has poured forth in deathless song the pitiable condition of his country men as follows: ,* "Oh, death, the poor man*s friend—
kindest
The dearest and the feest
1
Welcome the hour mytaged limbs Are laid with thee, at rest." Again, in measuring the greal distance between producers and non-producers, he exclaims: "If I'm designed yon lordling's slave,
By naturt's laws designed— Why was an independent wish E'er planted in my mind If not, why am I subject to
His cruelty and scorn. Or why has man the will and power .To make his fellow mourn
u.
sr*1 &
It is not quite so desperate with ui as to causc us to importune death to come to our relief but it is bad enough with some of us. To avert the sad possibili ties of the future, this organization is made for mutual protection, and our venture in this behalf cannot fail to redound to our advantage individually and collectively, for our principles ana the objects we aim at are alike well founded, being based upon right and justice. We wish to bring about a state of affairs in which industry will make every deserving family comfortable without robbing those who already possess more than thoy need we ao not propose to rob the rich and give to the poor but wc do propose to use every honorable means to secure for labor a reward that is fair and reasonable and no compensation is of this charactcr that will not support the family of a mechanic comfortably, when the head of that family labors diligently with willing hands, to that end. This result is not calculated to work any injustice to those, who have a competency and more. It wltl merely divide the products of investment (money and human bone and muscle) upon a more equal basis. None will he impoverished, and all will have enough, unless it be a sluggard and a tritler, and such have no part nor lot with us in this matter. When the artisans and laborers of this country are paid in sums that will compare with the results of their efforts, there will lie a flowing of overplus from quarters in which it is not needed and where it should not be, to receptacles that are depleted and which need its presence, those receptacles being the pockets of the working men, who created the capital, and who are justly entitled to a lull share of their own productions. This object is certainly laud able if not, then self-defense and protection are not commendable. The fortu nate ones of earth have no right to complain of this movment and if they imitate the justice and forbearance that workingmen, in all ages of the world have observed, they will not That large majority that earn their bread by personal exertion, have witnessed capital purchasing whole broadsides of country, thus leadening the probability of their procuring homes in fee simple, andtcomplained not they have seen wealth buying np in large quantities, the leading products of culture, and holding them at prices that caused short rations upon many a poor man's table, and submitted quietly because it was "business." However, I do not think it even probable that this species of rolroery can ever be extirpated from civilization, but I do insist upon wages being increased to such an extenthat when the army of insatiate Shylocks, by speculation, cause a work* ingman to pay ten dollars as |the price of necesaries tor his family, which could have been bought for six dollars had it not been for speculation, he can pay the four extra dollars without starvation or suffering resulting to those dependent upon him for support. This is the important point this is what we should strike for. Let the capitatists speculate but we insist upon a compensation for our labor of sufficient volume to counteract the'sums thus taken out of our pockets by the speculations, and sometimes peculations of capital. This is only justice. A rule that allows capital to measure the price of the necesssaries of life, at pleasure, and
sends an army of bayonets against the beasts of workingmen whoa thev insist upon Wages commensurate with the circumstances by which they are surrounded. makes1 liberty and of free government a mocker and penury and want a certainty, and of apiece with that jastice which drafts a man into a cavalry regiment in time ot j?ar but prohibits the rich man's money from draft to purchase a horse to carry that cavalryman through the battle. And this infernal principle of rating the workingman's interests as nothing when they run counter to the supremacy of capital, pervades not only governmental transactions, but influences and controls every business, without exception, where large capital is invested, not only in this country, but in every country, whether it be republic, Kingdom or Empire. This is one of the grievous wrongs that we propose to am* eliorate, if not entirely wipe out and if we work like true men in the cause we have espoused, this organization growing out of an amalgamation of workingmen's interests, will reap a full share of the honor and reward of bringing about this desired end, and causing the doctrine to be recognized, the world over, that workingmen were not created to be hewers of wood and carriers of water, without just and adequate reward.
