Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Tom Ewing Scene 1 - A Cheap Restaurant. - Workingmen coming in and chatting to one another. A recruiting officer in rear at a table and Tom Ewing seated by himself. 1st Speaker: Well, boys, we ought to be very glad to have this bite to eat after the day. 2d Speaker: Yes, we ought to be thankful for any morsel. We are producing the wealth and then live like beggars. 3d Speaker: Slaves you may say. 4th Speaker: Worse than slaves; for the slave´s master has an interest in him. He sees that his slave has something to eat and a place to sleep; but our masters care not whether we starve. 2d Speaker: True you are. We hear much talk of slavery in the South; but if they want to see real slavery, let them come to Pittsburgh. 3d Speaker: The poor man is a slave everywhere. He is dogged from morning to night in the shop. Everyone is barking at him and the pay he gets is not enough to keep a cat alive.
