This of itself demonstrates the folly of attempting to resist Any reasonable demand for wages on the part money, and thn of this class of mechanics, ‘The supply of | them is evidently unequal to the demand, and | as long as such continues to be the case their wages must advance, until cither building operations are diminished, or the number of bricklayers increased, so that there i# no more work for them to do than they ean readily accomplish. All the efforts of the master masons so far have been unavailing to pro- cure hands from other cities to any consider: able extent; and if any of the strikers are out of employment, it is not because there are no buildings waiting for them. From the indications which we get, and we think they can be relied upon, it will be but a few days, or weeks, at farthest, be- fore owners of property will anxiously sc the men whose offers they now affect to purn, and gladly secure their services at the price they now denounce as exorbitant. In view of this fact, the question suggests Itself: Why is there such a small number of bricklayers? There are plenty of men who Want situations in stores and counting rooma, ‘and schools, and other places of a similar kind, and why should the building trades be neglected? Men who, as carpenters or brick- layers or plasterers or plumbers, could earn from $4 to $6 a day, are willing to take up with $2 and $3 as salesmen, or bank clerks, or school teachers, Something must, to be sure, be allowed for tho certainty of employment all tho year round, which the laborer for day's wages does not havo, and for the greater physical strength required for a mechanical calling ; but giving these considerations all the weight to which they are entitled, there is still food forge flection in this pre! to tho less paid over tho more remunerative employ- ments. Is it not owing in great measure to the remains of an old-fashioned idea that the mechanic is in some way socially inferior to the men who do not soll their hands and thelr clothes in the course of their Iabor, and {a it not Ligh timo that the educators of youth set themselves about eradicating this prejudice ? Ava matter of fact, we have heard the statement made by Losses who have been many years in busincss, that American-born young men no longer devote themselves to trades, but prefer instead the chances of the dry goods business, or gambling in stocks, or some other fashion of making # living, which, they foolishly imagine, is more re. spectable, or, as the phrase goes, more “ gen teel” than being a». chanie, The cons: quence is, that they have gradually given way to workingmen from across the ocean who have no euch non sensical ideas, and who are o happy to exchange the low way native lands for the high ones they get here But even they, we are afraid, after a whi become poisoned with the prevailing disli of mechanical work, aud neglect to rear th children to their own callings, Hence 1) continued scarcity of mechanics, and the pre pondera:-e among them of natives of th country; wad hene: their wages which so alarms the timid mone capitalist. Where, he asks anxiou going to be? Before long he fears he will have to pay $1 an hour to mechanics, and do just as they tell Lim to. Indeed, we can see no other solution of the difficulty. Wages, as we have said, must rise until building is checked, or the supply of mechanics is increased to meet the wants of builders, Now, we know that buildir must go on; the country is too rich and growing too rapidly for our great cities to stand atill. Mechanics must be had at any price, and therefore their compensation will 9 up and up until young men begin to open their eyes to the fact that bricklaying and carpenter work, and everything else of that kind,will yield them a much better living than stock.gambling and measuring out tape and ribbon, And when once the ice is broken, and they find out that dirt goes no deeper than the skin, there will be a change in pub- lic opinion, which will make bricklaying and stone-cutting quite as desirable profes- sions as law or medicine, For the true tenden- ey of education is to make distinctions between men, not according to their occupations, but according to their intrinsic worth. In teach- ing the children of our common schools the wonders of science and the treasures of lito. ature, they should also be impressed with the dignity ofvuseful labor of every kind, A youth will only lay bricks the better for knowing mathematics and the rules of archi- tecture; and he has a right to feel, when he vers home at niobt that he is epti- SDAY, AUGUST 4 OBITUARY. tled not only to hie money wages, but tothe Tespect due to a good and useful m .
