The Iiinsylrania State Bnwrd of Agricul ture resumed its session here to-day.' A large mimlr f iieni now raid ou sul jects of intercut to the memls-m. In the ev ening (ialtish A. OmV deliverisl an a. hires on agriculture Is-fore a large audienerr '"' In the course of his remarks he said that next to agriculture the question of greatest national concern is lalsir. Of all the jieniic iou influences, said Mr. Omw, which lead to national d.s ay the most baleful is a iNilicy ttiat U-tmt.ka or iiuxicrUlus lalior. The strength of nations -oiisists not in fleets and miies, but in the manly spirit of an inde , ndeiit yeomanry and in the intelligence, comfort and hap lines of the lalsiring classes. The principle is inrrnl and just that lalsir, whether of brain or muscle, ought to receive out of the accumulation of wealth in jro)ior lioii to what h eotitrilmtes towants the ac cumulation. Hut in reducing this jirineiple to practice, in onler to do it justly the fact must not be overt. Miked that in all pursuits lalmr is aid in current exs-nses during the continuance of the business, whetlajr there is any Until profit or not. Authentic statistic show that a verv- large sr cent, of all khiils of business ends in bankruptcy, thus sinking whatever amount of capital may have Ik-cu invested. In all such i -as. -a ii is clear that labor receives its full projsirtioii or more, lir it shares no JKlrt of the losses. The real solution of the lalmr problem in this couuti-y is to determine how high ihe wages or oiiniK-nsation for lalsir can go w ith out destroying Ialsr itself. The determina tion of that j, int is its only solution ; all else is merely the exjatlicney of idli.'tiv-. Arbitration well enough in itself, caly si-tiles the existing dispute, which may arise agcin in the same or a diffen-nt sha as of ten as it is settled. The cause of the dispute is not hereby removed but remains the same as U-furc. The higher the price lalior can Ik- jviitl and retain the market tiir its pli shu ts the latler it is for eM-r'hiMly, and to that k lint ill all cast the employer can go, hut Is yond that liint it isan imjssihility, for lalsir cannot Ik- paid ill the jmHluctiou of an article more than the article itself will sell for ill market. The market priiv for an article and the eoni Kiisation to Is-' paid to lalmr in its jmshie- t ion is not, except to a limited extent fixed by our country alone. In resjiect to Imth we an- ill conijictition with tlie markets of the world. A disagn-eiiH-nt between the employer and employe as to the wages of lalsir is no mon' a war between capital and labor than a disa greement Is-twecn the merchant and his cus tomer as to the price of articles oll'cn-d for sale is a war lietwcon the priKlucer and con sumer. ( 'apital and lalsir are mutually de K'!ideut on eai h other and then-can Ik' Do contlict ls-tw.s'11 them. The grievances of labor in five el.s tive goveninients. said Mr. inw, nn- to be removeii in ihe same way as any other grievance is removed by an :!)--al to the intelligent judgment of public opinion. In fnv constitutional government, with frit- siM-cch, fnv pn-ss and universal Uil lot, then' can Ik- no excuse for a resort to vio lence for the correction of any grievainv. In such a government olH-iliciicc to the com mands of law and the mandates of courts is paramount to all else. Xo matter w hat the grievances complained of may Ik-, a n-sort to lawless violence is an attack u,ni the rights ofevei'v law abiding citizen, Umiii organied sis iety itself, and if successful is the lint step in the road that leads to anan'hy and national ruin. An eulighteii.sl public opinion in a free government will in the end innut all real grievances, if peaceable means only an- em ployed, it may nspiire time and Ktlieinv; hut that is the case with all attempts to re move long-standing abuses. No cause, great or small was ever yet henctitted I'.v the viola tion of fundamental jiriiiciplcs of right. Ood ruh-s the universe by immutable laws of jus tice, and it is in vain for man to attempt to nullify them. One man's rights end where another's Is-giii. is the fundamental principle of all just law s and is the bai of civilized siK'iety. I.ilsTty is the right of even- K'rsoii to engage in any law ful pursuit for a liveli IukkI, and 'continue therein, without 1 tin dninie or molestation hy any other K-rsoii ; and it is despotism in its worst ibrm that de prives hi in of this right, a crime against hu manity scan-ely less than the taking of life itself.
