LABOR. 821 111 which the slave-dealer, taking advantage of anignorant, unthinking man, was found out. Howmany thousands of similar cases exist in theUnited States at the present time of which thepublic know nothing ? All newspaper men atthe principal sea-ports know that people come tothis country by the thousand on contracts to doa certain amount of labor for specified prices.The prices may be below the cost of living, never-theless the contracts hold good in all courts oflaw, and the men are obliged to do their duty.We are sorry for them, but, according to thepractice of all countries, man seems to be madefor the law and not the law for man.

Men withtheir wives and families go to a small town whichpractically belongs
