THE D AIL if EVENING TELEGRAPH, PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, JULY 19, 18G0. crmiT or tiiu r-anss. Journal .on nri i iil Topi.-- r.:iiHli l Kv-ry DiiT lor inn i;'i"' CONDITION OF TUB LABOR MARKET. From the San rr(wnn Tnn Tim mnya of ilifol lll.il rotative to tbo ii,.1 condition .f sialo, furnw furnished in tbo ann.ml roport of tho L..l.r fcxcbango, is no Ichh intcr. sti.iM Ih-.a im-m-t,,nt; ami seeing the iiumciiHO Lone f.ts whu-ii that institution has conferred ni'on iiilyers and employed, it bocomoH a matter lor HimiriHO that we Bhould have so long in.;j;;"J to avail our selves of its nrlvantiiijos. 1 lie first thing that strikes ns, in perusing thin report, is the ex traordinarily largo number of applications and orders filled. During the time the Labor Ex change bos been in operation a period of Home fourteen months only employment has been found for lH,i0 persons, of whom 14 ;f.2 wore men and 1021 women. The Labor Exchungo of Now York, during the past year, found employment for 31,1 1: persons, of whom 1H,114 were males and l,'t,02! females. And yet, upward of 21)0,01)0 immigrants arrived last year in Now York. It will be seen that tho proportion of women is much larger in the-.Eastern labor market than it is here, though we must not forget that there are in this city many employment offices, which probably withdraw a largo number of women from the operations of the Labor Exchange. The most significant fact shown by the re port, howover, and tho most interesting, in connection with a question which is destined to enter largely into tho politics of tho time, is the effect of Chinese labor upon the labor market. During the last year demagogues have been busily engaged in prognosticating all kinds of evil from the influx of Asiatics. We have been told that they were taking the bread from tho mouths of white men and women. We have been assured that the em ployment of Chinamen as domestics was driving away industrious and capable white girls, whose places were tilled by the hateful, economical Mongol. Pictures have been drawn of able-bodied immi grants reduced to beggary in our streets, and an attempt has been made to create tho impression that, so far as the labor market was concerned, John Chinaman had emu lated Caesar, and had come, seen, and con quered. And now what are the sober facts, as shown by figures which neither labor leaguers nor politicians can get round? The Chinese clement hits everted no appreciable influence upon the Utbor nmrkd. All through the year the demand, in every class of occupations, has been steadily in advance of the supply. Although it is known that Chinese are largely employed as cooks and house servants, the demand for white girls has been constant, and invariably in excess of the supply. Nor has the rate of wages been affected at all. The prices paid to housemaids, laundresses, nurses, cooks, seamstresses, chambermaids, etc., vary from $20 to $:sr and $40 per month, with board, and still the cry is for more women. Over four thousand have been absorbed during the post year, and the demand is as active as ever. The report of the Labor Exchange contrasts the wages paid to domestics here and in Eng land, and, as we think, rather overstates the amounts paid in the old country. We believe that from $25 to !J5 a year is nearer the average than from $40 to !fr0; and though domestics in California earn more in one year than- their less fortunate sisters can in ten years, they are not content. But there is another stubborn fact for the consideration of the anti-coolie leagues, to be found in this report. Not only does it appear that the labor market has not been affected by the importation of Chinese, but we are told that "the fact is that both skilled and unskilled labor has been for some months past rising in value." Tho needs of the coun try, now beginning to be opened up in all directions, cannot be supplied by the tide of immigration; and, though resort has been had to Chinese labor, the fact that the supply of white labor has been inadequate to meet the demand for it, proves that at least no bread has been taken out of the mouths of any white persons who have passed through the hands of the Labor Exchange. The opening of the Pacific Railroad has not brought the great influx of laborers that was expected. No doubt largo numbers of those who were employed on that enterprise have been retained in the interior to assist in the construction of other lines. Some have gone East; some have drifted off to settlements along the railroad; some have gone to White I'ine to try their luck. In comparing the statistics of the Califor nia and the New York Labor Exchange, one significant point of difference is observable. At New York the excess of applications for employment over engagements last year was 4983. In San Francisco the excess of orders over applications during the same period, was 4838. That is to say, New York was unable to find employment for nearly five thousand applicants, while San Francisco was unable to fill nearly five thousand orders. In considering the expectations of a large emigration over the l'acifio Railroad, the difficulties of the way must be borne in mind. 'Three things are absolutely necessary to the establishment of such an immigration, viz.: convenient emigrant ears, low fares and quick travel. Up to the present time the railroad companies have seemed to consider that they bad done,their whole duty when they f urnishod emigrant trains, and no regard has been paid to the question of speed or the comfort of the passengors. The cost of provisions is gen erally an important item with emigrants, yet they are systematically delayed live and six days on journeys that should not oocupy more than two at the most. The report of the New York Exchange of last year, alluding to this question, says: "At present foist freight trains occupy less time In travel th au those carrying emigrants, ami soma of these trains, freighted with human beings, are com pelled to give right of way to cattle trains.", It is evident that with such a system we can never hope to secure our share of overland immigration. Arrangements should be per fected for hurrying emigrant trains through on schedule time, and un endeavor should be laaue to send them over tno road at sucn a rate as will lesson as much as possible the dangers from the breaking out of illness on board tho ears, which must always be taken into consideration where great numbers of persons are packed together. ASA TACKER DANIEL E. SICKLES- HORACE GREELEY. From the X. Y. World. The Democratic nominee for Governor of Pennsylvania happily vindicates the wisdom of his selection and assures His success bet ore the people, alike by tho praine which spring spontaneous from the lips of bis friends and by the aumissions coiupollou by ins wortn from the worst of his enemies at the very mention of his name. Says the Tribune, iu enforced praise of the man: Ana Tacker, a smart Connecticut boy of oUl fashioned Yankee ntnr.V, lert his native State whiin seventeen years old, with rohio $10 In money and clothing of about equal value, and brought up lu Huwiiiclmnna county, North Pennsylvania, whore he apprenticed himself to learn the trade of carpenter and Joiner, whleh he followed for some years there after, marrying In duo season, and buying a tract of wild land, which ho proceeded to clear and till. At length he pulled unmakes and struck for Mu;li Chunk, the heart of the Lehigh coal region, wh.Mici he ran a r.oul boat to Philadelphia, then started a store. and soon engnged extensively lu buying coal lands. building railroads, etc., etc., whereby "he grew rapidly and enormously ricn. lie is now worth at livist twenty minions or ioirarn, and we believe he came honestly by them. Though we do not belong to hli thrllty rliiss, we appreciate them as useful men, and believe the world is better for tlioir ex istence." Though c lumsily told, this brief story of the facts of Asa Packer's lifo to whioh, it will bo noun, it does insuffhient justice contains yet enough to demoestrate the mould and mettle of the man, and that ability ami integrity in the discharge of his own affairs which will guarantee his worthy oversight of those of his adopted State. Nevertheless, in what follows this reluctant summary of Asa Packer's career, the com ments are so double-edged as to wound tho hand that wrote them. In his feeble effort to break the force of his own statement, the Tribune proceeds to remark: "We don't liko the idea of making a Governor out of ono whose chief distinction is the ownership of twenty Trillions of dollars." Nor does the Democratic party like or propose ts enter tain any such idea, Mr. Greoley. Tho "chief distinction" of Abu Packer's life is far from tho accident of his wealth. It rests in the sagacity and honor and honesty with which he attained this wealth, au'd upon the noble philanthropy with which he bos dispensed it. Yet there is "an idea, there is a "chief distinction," which this critic does like, and on the embodiment and possession of which ho bases his "personal esteem, "respect, and friendship." The man who slurs Asa Packer slavers Daniel E. Sickles. The one is in his view unfit to be Governor. The other is proper to be Minister to Spain and the reel pient of praise in the Tribune and of the greeting and praise of its editor. For the gentleman, Christian, and philanthropist, Mr. Greeley has suspicion, sneers, and abuse. For the libertine, . niail-robber, pimp, panderer, adulterer, murderer, defaulter, and mutineer, Mr. Greoley has "personal esteem, respect, and friendship." Mark the difference ! Asa Packer left home and embarked in life with his entire youthful savings netting seventeen dollars. Daniel E. Sickles began at about the same ago with too extorted Iroiu the credulous gene rosity of Peter Cooper. This generosity ho abused by squandering the money, which was a loan, in such licentious courses as led the man of whom ho had borrowed it, and who would have willingly doubled the amount to an honest debtor, to cut him oft' forever. At the period when Asa Packer was "apprenticed to a carpenter anu joiner, Daniel E. Sickles was a budding burglar of the mortgage of a trust estate, tor the theft of which he stands indicted at the bar of his native city to-day. When Asa Packer "had married in duo sea son, Daniel E. Sickles was living in open commerce with a public prostitute, and is credibly reported to have solicited for her from others such attentions as he gave her himself. At this stage, it was Packer the me chanic and Sickles the pimp. While Asa Packer was "clearing wild land and tilling it," Daniel E. Sickles was robbing the JJroadway Post-othce and silting cheek by-jowl with his and the public's trull in the Assembly Chamber at Albany. While Asa Packer was amassing wealth and distributing it with a discrimination and abundance to which the benefactions of Mr, Peabodv alone are eoual. Daniel E. Sickles. having been pimp, burglar, mail robber, ballot-box stuffer and defaulter, became in quick and suitable succession adulteror and niur derer and Radical. Among the acts which Asa Packer has done to attract the distrust of Mr. Greeley, has been the endowment with half a million dol lars a university in which the youth of his State are gratuitously educated in all the practical sciences, and in the principles and practibes of a business career. As the out come of his magnificent bounty, tho Lehigh valley is filled with happy homes to-day homes whose beads or whose sons he has educated, and to whose success in life, and to whose standing and eminence in this age, his benevolence has chiefly contributed. Im poverished men and women, destitute orphan children, deserving and struggling charities, needy churches of all Christian faiths, know the name of Asa Packer only to bless it. lie has maintained them from the riches which Heaven has rewarded bis honorable and in dustrious labor, and ten thousand subjects of his lavish generosity to-day rise up and call him blessed from all parts of the Key stone Mate. Among the acts which Daniel E. Sickles has done to win "the personal esteem, re spect, and friendship of Mr. Greeley are the robbery oi ms patron, tue burglary ot a mortgage, tne pillage ot tne mails, the open endearment and companionship of a wanton, tne adultery oi decades, murder, and tne re- conBOcration of a dishonored mxrriiage bed. It is nt that Mr. Greeley should contemn a Packer with the same lips with which he caresses a Sickles. THE INCOME TAX WHY NOT ABO LISH IT ? From the JIT. F. llerald. Several journals have lately published lists of the income returns of certain wealthy citi zens, inese returns are in many cases such as would stagger tho faith of Quetelet and Buckle in the modern science of statistics. It has been said that figures, like dead men. never lie; but the very reverse would appear to be the truth if the figures relate to returns of this kind. A personal income tax is odious in all countries, and particularly so in the United States. In this free country a less offensive method of meeting the expenditures of the Government should be devised. It is here regarded as so manifestly inconsistent w ith the spirit of our institutions that scarcely any man scruples to evade its provisions. The fact is notorious that where this tax is levied on the sworn statement- of individuals, it fails to come up to the true amount. The dis crepancy between a return by the tax-payer of millions for one year and zero for another is too glaring not to provoke public attention. Moreover, only Government employes and salaried men have to pay the full amount. In the case of the former, tho tax is levied on their monthly sularies and deducted from Bums due to them. It is, in fact, collected in ndvanco. Men not in Government employ ore tempted to keep no occount of their in come ond forget conveniently what they re ceive. In their case no proof of fraud ex ists. It is not uncommon for men living in fashionuble stylo, keeping equipages and Seve rn servants, to return to the assessors an in come of but a few hundred dollars. Those who ought to pay most escape scot f reo, while men whose incomes are known to be mode rate ore heavily overburdened. There is no way of romedying this inequality or of collect ing the Government dues fairly and fully. The Income tax is levied on all incomes ex ceeding one thousand dollars. Take the c:se of an average family, which is estimated to consist of five persons, and tho income paya ble by the father of tho family ii only two hundred dollars per head. Now, the nooov sary expenses of un individual iu these tunas of high prices and depreci ito l currency are much greater than this sum; so that the tax on incomes, so called, is really a tax ou ex penditures. In other words, it is a tax on what him been expended for the necessaries of life a tax which becomes, in the strong lnngnago of Adam Smith, "a curse equal to tho bairenness of the soil and the inclemency of the heavens." It must thus be classed with those taxes which necessarily fall either on wages or on profits. In proportion as they diminish wngos they must equally diminish the comfort1) and enjoyments of the largest and most important class in society, spreading pauperism, misery, and crime throughout the country; and, as an able writer on political economy declares, "they cannot diminish profits without occasioning a correspondinc diminution of the power to accumulate capital, and without also stimu lating its transfer to those countries in which taxation is less oppressive." In the United States, whero we can boast of a boundless extent of fertile and unappropriated land. and whore no feudal privileges fetter the em ployment of industry or retard the accumula tion ot wealth, such taxes on the necessaries of life ore at prosont less injurious than in tho smaller and more densely populated countries of Europe Rut even here the rapid increase of our population and tho steady narrowing of our unoccupied territory will ultimately make such taxes a grievous burden, lho migrant injustice of an income tax which can bo so unequally administered that tho income returns of half a dozon wealthy citizens in New York exceed tho total amount of the income returns of New Orleans is already patent. Tho income tax will ex pire by its own limitation next year, but why should not the coming Congress abolish it at once ?, NO CHANGE. From the If. Y. Tribune. Amend ot Ueneral l. 1 J3Iairs has re vived a letter, written by that gentleman in lHt;."i,to show that his respect for the Confede rate heroes, which he manifested so offen sively ot the Long Branch banquet, is no new thing, but a feeling which he has always cherished, lho letter in question is one in troducing a clergyman who purposed erect ing a "monumental cathedral in honor of the Rebel dead, and Mr. Blair saw nothing to disapprove, but much to admire, in this effort to consummate (commemorate ?) their virtues of consistency and courage." The clergyman's name is not given, but we pre sume he is tho Rev. Mr. Rogers of Memphis, well known for some time as an advanced Ritualist, and now a Roman Catholic, whose project for a monumental cathedral at tracted, about four years ago, a good deal of interest. Mr. Rogers proposed that the surviving friends of Confederate war riors should be allowed to erect in tha church statues, memorial windows, tablets, etc., inscribed with the names of any indi viduals whose deeds they chose thus to honor; so that there was no reason why Booth, Wirz, or any of the vilest agents of the secession conspiracy might not veceive a sort ot canoni zation, and the gorgeous rays through tinted panes shed down upon the worshippers an honorable reminiscence ot treachery and murder. General Blair saw nothing to dis approve! this this, and much to commend. Wo can respect tho personal character of the men against whom we fought, but we don t see why they must be honored precisely be cause ot their errors and offenses. The kind est thing we can do for them is to forgot their past deeds, and look only to their present and their future. General Blair's mistake is that of all tho Democratic politicians. They are constantly straining their eyes to look beyond the line; when the war was at its height, they watched for salvation not in the national arms, but in the debates of Jeff. Davis' Congress. While our soldiers were laving down their lives for the Union, these foolish politicians were trea sonably corresponding with the Rebel Presi dent. Mr. Pollard has recently told us of the mass of letters from .Northern Democrats hid den away in Mr. Davis' private archives; of their offers to subsist the Southern armies out of our granaries and warehouses; and of the complete understandin g bet ween theRichmond Government and certain members of tho Dem ocratic National Convention of 18Gt. Anybody who doubts that an important section of the Democracy were intriguing during the war to secure the triumph of the Southern arms, can easily have his doubts removed by Mr. Pol lard. Their fault was the same as Mr. Blair's; like the Bourbons, they neither learn nor for get. They cannot forgot that the Northern Democracy, for years, pinned its hopes of success upon the favor of the South, flattered it, fawned upon it, obeyed its slightest wish. They cannot learn that war and emancipation nave changed the whole aspoet of the politi cal held, and no party can now become estab- lished in power except by identifying itself with the interests of all tho loyal portion of the countiy. THE BETTER WAY. From the K Y. Suiu Some gentlemen from Canada have just ar rived in Washington to talk over the snbject ot a new reciprocity treaty. Mr. Secretary l'ish has welcomed them with the dignity and urbanity of a gentleman of the old school, and they are now solemnly deliberating on the provisions winch they would like to have in corporated m a new convention. But if they moKe a ireaiy, win it be ratified ? That is not itiiiaui. uir. nsn mav think no can get it throughout so thought Mr. Seward about neveuly Johnsons Alabama treaty. until the Hon. Charles Sumner knocked it higher than a kite. "We don't believe that the sort of reciprocity which is now contemplated can lure much better. .but if our Canadian friends wish to make a treaty (hat will pass Congress and stand for a iiionsHiui years, let them negotiate lor tne ad mission into the American Union of tho Can- ados, Nova Scutin. New Brunswick. Prince Edward Islund, Capo Breton, Newfoundland, Lubrabor, l ritish Columbia, the Hudson's Bay Territory, Prince Rupert's Land, and all tho rest of the continent north of the presont irontier. That would make six or seven new States of the Union to start with, having Congressmen, Governors, Lieutenant Gover nors, United States Senators, Judges, spies upon Cuban filibusters, custom house ollijors, pom masters, mail contractors, ana internal revenue ofilcers without number. What a prospect this would open to the ambition of the great men and patriots of tho Dominion! As for the new State Legislatures, the present members of the Proviuvial and Dominion Parliaments ore already sutHciontly corrupt to enter into immediate competition with tho best thot we hate to show on this side of tho line. In swindling railroad concerns the Canadions are also fully our equals. Indeed, there is no great obstacle to the immediate conclusion of a treaty of annexation. bucii a treaty might bo finishod before the meeting of Congress in December, and con summated in season for tho Hon Joseph Howe, tho eloquent statesman of Nova Scotia, to be appointed Secretary of tho Navy in Mr. Robeson's place before the end of President Grant's first year of office; and we will under take that ho will not bo in oflice half au hour without rovoking Borio's illegal order giving British names to American shins. Let the Canadian Commissioners reflect seriously on this subject. If their overtures for annexa tion ore cautiously made, we have no doubt Mr. lisli will receive them in a kindred f-pirit. By this means they will got a roal ond not a sham reciprocity; and they may be svire that thoir constituents will never bo iu danger of losing again the advantages socurod for them by their efforts.
