Considerable comment has
made in the State recently about the
pay of the labor One thinks it not
and many will say it. is too
much. It is neither and it is both.
Some laborers may not be paid
while many are paid entire-
ton much. It should not. lie any
more a question as to what is paid
the laborer than it is how much
does lie earn. The truth is, almost
all laborers who are hired at a . r
price do as little as possible to
hold the job Many an employ-
who rays bis laborer fifty cents,
a dollar, or two dollars a day would
be glad to increase the pay if only
be could get the laborer to give
service, Somehow the
