PAYING WACKS BY ORDERS.
It bas come to my knowkdgK. that
in . some parts of the State atHykcm
Oxists of paying the wages of work
men and Jahoreis not in money 'hut'
ip Orders on store-keepers fiir merchan
dise ,ana other articles T lis system,
by preventing all competition, leaves
i the men to the uncoiitrollo 1 discretion
jof the storekeepers. It is a? .System
most unjnst, and it affects
■ classes of usefiil citizens, who as they
f.live by the I [proceeds of their daily
not adequate means to*'
resist it. I have no doubt that most
of the .difficulties.which Occasionally
occur between employers and their
workmen Arc duo to the prevalence ot
this system'. That every mun, for a
fair, day’s laborshonld receive a fair
day’s wages/ is but the dictate 6f
common honesty ;.aud while it would
most unwise for the Statute interfere
at nil with the rate of wages, it is .in
my judgment incumbent on her to
protect hot/laboring : population by
requiring that whatever bo the
wages stipulated, they siall‘ be so ;
paid that the recipient may- purchase
uecesiaarios for himself and his family,
wherff thcyjcain be had best and cheap-
T do moat earnestly recommend
•this subject iio the Legislature for
prompt anif effectual action.

was[ provided that citizens; absent

Stantially re-enactPd in jtbe general:

.1889. The Supremo Conit has ;re
cenlly [decided that by reason;; of ;a ;
phrase in the constitutional amend*
monts of. 1838, this provision has Fife- 1 ;
come unconstitutional. Pennsylvania
has sent to the service.about two hnn
dred thousand citizens, who, by I this;
decision, are disfranchised. This
seems to be; a bard; measure—<l that;
men .who testily . their devotion to
the' country l>y going to the field
should thereby lose the most inesti'-;
mable right. of a citizen. I recom
mend that the necessary steps J bp;
