There was the usual number of " men folks" who would " run up a debt" to the straining point, which they probably never intended to pay. The popular talk of the decline of honesty in business in New England received its first protest, with a good many other humbugs, from Theodore Parker, when he declared that the lioston of his day, so far as business went, in honest)- was far beyond any previous time. Seventy years ago, everywhere in the United States, business meant " Every man for himself an...d the devil take the hindmost. " The great revelations of breach of trust, turning corporation screws, and, most dangerous of all, denying the natural right to work for a living to whole 16 classes of men, are simply the logical results of that old style of trading, beginning with the boys swapping jack- knives, and permeating society from ridge-pole to cellar. Ninety per cent, of the men worth $100, 000 in New Eng. Land today began their lives as all but half a dozen boys began in Warwick, and in every country store or trading place every " trick of trade" was practiced by these young men in the getting of their fortunes.
