Mr. WADE. It seems to me there' is great caution about these corporations. So far from there being anything objectionable in this 7th section defining the powers of this incor oration, in myjudgment it is the great merit. Tam glad that mechanics will band together for the purpose of purchasing lands and put ting buildings upon it and leasing or seling those buildings. If there is an overgrown land lord here, a man of great wealth, he may go on and he may employ all the mechanics in the world, and gent cinen have no kind of difficulty with him. He may go on and he may buy all the land around him, he may erect buildings upon it, and he may sell them or rent them to his heart's content, and may speculate in them; but if a few mechanics of any means get together for the purpose of doing that same thing, then arises this terrible objection. Do you want to grind them down under foot?.Because they have not the means, each indivttlunl on his own behalf, to do this same thing, you intend that it never shall be done! What more oh jection‘able is there because a few mechanics in moderate circumstances club together and are incorporated for the purpose of doin this same lawful thing than that one man ould do it,lie havingwealth enough to do it all him self? Do you want to compel the poor me chanics to work under this great landlord? That is the idea, that they shall not do anything on their own book, and you will ire them no advantages for doing anything! on are exceedingly frightened at the idea that these men who are skilled to labor may speculpaoteo!r You think it is dangerous to give them a.chance to work for themselves and purchase land for the purpose of erecting buiTdings upon it and to ease those buildings or sell them after. ward! I say so far, in in judgment, from this being any objection to this bill, it is highly meritorious, and there is no possible objection to it; no evil can arise from it; it will be for the benefit of the incorporators, and it will be equally beneficial to those who wish to rent or occupy buildings in this town. I do not think there is any objection whatever to that section or any other iart of the bill.
