ICIHICAGO DALY fRIBUN THE LABOR-QUESTION. Laws Governing the Rise and Fall of Wages. General Tnutility of Strikes, Oo-oper- etion, and Arbitration, How to Put Capital and Labor in Proper Relations to Each Other, Publication of Daily Trades-Reports in tho Newspapers, Torkingmen of ‘Chieago s I'ho futuro of this conntry and peoplo depend largely upon the mannor in which tho two groat quostions of tho day shall bo sottled: tho reln- Lions that ought to oxist botween Capital and Liabor, and botwoen the Railronds and the Poo- plo. Woe all ngroo that tho relations oxisting botweon theso partios is no longer in accordanco with our best futorosts. Tho conelderation of tho natural lawa governing.their busincss-intor- courso, and tho propor mode of adjusting thoir notions accordingly, is now tho duty of the hour. 1t is o mistake many poople indulgo in to think thoy can make laws, or rules, by which to govorn | thoir nffaivs. Law govorns all things, Thore is & right and » wrong way to do overylhing; not dopendont upon chanco, or tho arbitrary will of individuals, but*upon tho natural, inhoront fitnoss of things. Laws are elvays In forco; but fn what * mannor thoy act, or why, is often a matter of profound ignoranco to us, ‘Thoy may bo discovored by & «close observation of facts, Nowton, it is said, «discovered tho law of [gravitation—the key to tho moveraents of & universo—by obgerving tho fall of an apple, and tracing that fact brok toits cprimnllaw. Ihave a fow words to aay, founded won foct, abont the question of Capital aud L~ ‘bor; more properly speaking, WORK AND WAGES. Though I may not dovelop auy new laws con- nocted with that subjact, a word a8 to tho work- ing of them, and their influcnce upon the work- {ngman, may not bo without valuo, Tho primo cause of all difficulty betwoon Cap- ital and Labor is tho unsettled, fluctuating stato of wagos. Many have herotofors got rid of thia subjoct by saying that tho' capitalista control ‘wages a8 they plenso, that wo are at their morey. Dut this does not do away with ita existonco as afact. I shall examino it as it presonts iteolf to mo, and endenvor to ronch the law that con- trols it ; for I am not inclined to think that tho -capitnlists, or anybody olse, can control business in gpito of its laws, For—flrst casc—suppose that, in Chicago, there I8 work for 5,000 carpon~ “tors, and thoro aro 6,000 to do it. It is squestion among theso men who, out of the 6,000, .aro to got omploymont. Bay that 5,000 are om- ‘ployed at tho usunl rate, £8 por day ; 1,000 men -are loft idlo, with board to pay, and somo with {umilies to support. Either these men must -obtain work or loave tho city, If theycan and will work cheapor, say at $2.60 por day, they -will bo employed in the placo of the 23 mon. Ruther tban leave the city, they decide to do ithis ; necossity forces thom toit. Of courso, to munko room for them, 1,000 men must bo dis- chorgod. This sccond 1,000 soon find them- eolves in tho same situation, and will, of coursoe, ‘o forcod to tho somo asct., So this com- petition will go on until wages aro reduced to the umform rato of 2.60 por day. This ‘boing a8 cbeap ne thoy can work, and 1,000 men jboing loft idle,—for work for 5,000 mon will only employ that number,~they must now go into othor employments, or loave town. Thero were too many men for the nmount of work to be dono,—creating compotition. Thus wages fell ; or becnuse, in the languago of tho cconomists, tho supply was grestor than the demand,— THE FIRST LAW GOVERNING WAGES. Seccond casc—Supposo thero are but 4,000 men to bo bad to do the worlcof 5,000, Thers will bo o number of employers who oannot fulfill their contracts for want of mon. Thoy must offer . extra pay, say $8.60 per day, to induce mon to . como from other towns, or lesve tho cmployera paying €3. In order to vetsin their men or got ‘otlicrs, tlip rest of the omployers must pay tho eamo wages, Thus, op account of the scarcity of men, wages aroe raised; or becauss tho de- mand was greator than the supply,— THE BECOND LAW GOVERNING WAGES, The operation of ouo or other of theso laws 1govorns every caso of o riso or fall in wagos, It follows that, when supply and demend aro fluc- “tuating, wegos will bo ilactuating, It they bo balanced, wages will bo uniform and stoady. Wo will now see what workingmen have dons accordance with these Inws, In tho case just iven, wo will say that tho 5,000 men employod— [nowlng by past esporiency that, ninloss some moang be taken to induce tho other 1,000 to loave town immedintely, or otherwiso prevent \them from offoring to work, wages will bo low- ored—conclude to form o Trado-Union, To avoid or get rid of compotition amongat work- ingmon was tho firat causo of the formation of Trade-Socioties, They bave adopted two plans to uecomplish this: Tirst, to induce the extra men to leave by J)nyiug their oxpenses out of town; or, sccond, to walt until the omployors -offor fo reduce wages, STRIRE, -und then, by force, Ymvnut the othor men from working. Tho first hne beon tried to noma ox- tont, more in England than in this country, bub 3t 1nils on account of thoe oxpense. The roason is the usunl mode of procoeding ; but force, being dirootly contrary to tholaws of the State, cnuses tho interforence of the authorities ; honco it fails, I havo prosoniod a epso represontative of many that occur in our largoe cities yearly. The whule Lintory of strikes cannot show whero the cmployars have endeavored to lower wages when nob assisted by the competition among workingmen; if it can. it will show n failure, If somo meana lind boen taken to provent such -an occurrence s8 6,000 mon being in & town -where there was work for but 5,000 ; if this glut- 4ing of the Labor-market coyld have boon pro- vouted, wages would not have beon lowered,— tho cause, competition, not being present. Dut it may be urged that, in somo cases, strikes do succoed. Lot us look into that, Bay that, in the case glven, the 5,000 aro forced to worl for §2.60 por dny. Hoon tho othor mon will have loft town; and then, while there is no compotition, they strike for higher wages, They will gonomlly gucceed, if all aro united, in car- tyiug tho strike, Thore is nothing to provent them, But the high rates obtained will act as an iuducomont {o draw othor men into tho town, and soon—generally by the next soason of work— tho samo condition of " affairs will Lo found: an ovorcrowdod Labor-market, and wages down to the bid of tho men who cau work chieapest, An- other striko will bo neaded to restore thom. Thus it is that strike succoeds ptrike, . WITII NO PERMANENT DENEFIT, —nny tomporary success soon being balanced b; 2 corrouponding lons, Bo are workingmen tosso upon a sen of troublos, wholly at ita moroy. No wonder thal wise mon among the Trados-Unions doclaro that the striking system is a failure, and productive of more Lhnrm than good. I cannol 800 why this conclusion was not reachod lon; ago, and gencrally adopted. The crowding o onr Labor-market Is tho™ cauge of all the difii- culty, You cannot provent nanfrom compoting with ono anothor in any situation of life, muc! Toss whon forced to it by poverty and hunger.
