And when Mr. Wright adds “that the transportation has been so perfected,” during the same time, “as to bring to the door of the [SN: THE PROPERTYLESS HAVE NEITHER DOOR NOR WINDOW.] poor man and the rich the results of industry of far away people” in order that they may buy them from different monopolists; this sentence really sounds like a mockery to the 34-millions of individuals who had in 1890 neither their own door nor even window, and who were absolutely dependent upon chances for a semi-income under the oppressive dividogenesure. But as to how many people were engaged in the gainful pursuits and how many of them were entirely subject to the system of dividogenesure, we can better know from the researches of Prof. Mayo Smith. He says as follows: “Persons in gainful pursuits, United States 1890, by classes of occupations, in ten years of age and over, were 47,413,559. Out of them [SN: PROF. MAYO SMITH.] 24,352,659 were males and 23,060,900 were females.” After this statement he innumerates their respective occupations and adds “That 9,013,201 persons were in gainful pursuits in agriculture, fisheries and mining, and that 8,333,692 of these last are males and 679,509 are females.”[72] So that out of 62,622,250 inhabitants of the country 47,413,559 individuals of 10 years of age and upwards were engaged in the gainful pursuits. Now these nearly 47½-millions of persons in gainful pursuits could not all be the slaves of dividogenesure. For some of these [SN: FAVORITES OF DIVIDOGENESURE SPECULATE.] persons serve its favorites for very high salaries and their services are well remunerated. Nor could this number include many of the favorites of this unjust principle. For its real favorites are those that possess extensive rights in natural and artificial resources of wealth; they are those that earn their enormous incomes even in their comfortable beds, by simply speculating on and relying upon the energy and productivity of the subjects to dividogenesure. And as the productivity of the American people is very high, it therefore becomes as easy for them to grow very wealthy under the favor of dividogenesure as for the millions of makers of their fortunes to grow very poor and emaciated. Reviewing then the various occupations of the people in the United States as these are represented by different authorities, we [SN: 1,000,000 FAMILIES AND 38,837,849 INDIVIDUALS.] have sufficient reason to judge that since the year 1890 there have been about 38,837,849 persons who may be regarded as positive slaves to dividogenesure on the one hand. And there have been about one million families that were more or less profited by their highly productive labor and skillful energy on the other hand. The above number includes nearly all the homeless and landless of the last census, and includes about six millions of those who had their little homes and other properties of no importance.
