The lawyer has heard much about himself in the past few years. His conscience may check his tradition. And we have a Press it has many faults, but it is no longer a lawyer's Press.... And the third class which has immediate interests antagonistic to bold reconstructions of our national methods is that vaguer body, the body of investing capitalists, the savers, the usurers, who live on dividends.
So he left his old enemy, Peter, there grinding out his story in no pleasant frame of mind. But it was part of the game, and Larry's "beat" was a cleanly-scored one, especially as Peter had tried to win by a trick. The young reporter found the work of rescue almost completed. The life savers had labored to good advantage and had brought nearly all the passengers ashore in the breeches buoy.
Thought the vessel would float off and he'd save his reputation. The life savers went out when it was fairly calm, but didn't take anyone ashore. Now it's too late, I reckon." As the fisherman spoke a rocket cleaved the fast-gathering blackness and shot up into the air. "What's that?" asked Larry. "She's firing signal lights. Wait and you'll see the coast-guard send up one in reply."
Her enthusiasm irritated him. When Rosalind came to take the position in his office the slow fires of hatred that had been burning beneath the surface of Walter Savers' life had already eaten away much of his vigor and energy. His body sagged in the office chair and there were heavy sagging lines at the corners of his mouth.
Savers have held out for three minutes, for five minutes, for ten minutes more? He says he could. So we say WE could have held out, and did, and had beaten off the enemy at Waterloo, even if the Prussians hadn't come up. The opinions differ pretty much according to the nature of the opinants.
"Here come the life savers!" cried Blake a little later, as through the spray that flew over the beach a party of men, in yellow oilskins, could be seen dragging something over the sand. "Yes, and few enough of 'em there are to do the work," said old Abe Haskill. "The government ought to put more men at the station." "Some were hurt, trying to launch the boat this morning," said Joe.
Roughly, it is true that the product of industry is divided between the workers who carry it on, and the savers who, out of the product of past work, have built the workshop, put in the plant and advanced the money to pay the workers until the new product is marketed. The workers and the savers are at once partners and rivals.
These are so arranged as to be removed whenever the weather becomes cold, so that the heat may then radiate into the kitchen. The outer edges of the oven are also similarly protected from loss of heat by tin casings and air-spaces, and the oven-doors opening at the front of the store are provided with the same economical savers of heat.
If the workers are to succeed in this competition and secure for themselves an ever-increasing share of the profit of industry and from the point of view of humanity, civilization, nationality, and common sense it is most desirable that this should be so then this is most likely to happen if the savers are so numerous that they will be weak in bargaining and unable to stand out against the demands of the workers.
The increase is due mainly to the introduction of Indian coolies. They now apparently form the great majority of the population. They are admirable breeders; their homes are always hazy with children. Great savers of money.
