The Law of Surplus Profit of Manufacturers. 



(Gunton.) 



" While the dearest capitalist and the dearest labourer 

 both fix the prices for their class, they both occupy relatively 

 opposite positions. The manufacturers who furnish the most 

 expensive portion of the supply of commodities are the 

 poorest and lowest in their class, while the labourers who 

 furnish the most expensive portion of labour-power are the 

 best and highest in their class, as shown." — Gunton.
