cost of an extra session need not be
large. 1t can do its work in. eleven
days. Called to meet on Wednes-

Aud as the state would have to be
re-districted anyhow at the next reg.
ular session, even the email amount
of $15. 200 for the extra session will
not be lost, as the time required for

The celebrated shoe-string congress.
sional district of Mississippi has long
been held up to scorn by the politicians
of the republican party, who secretly
envied it as Il most brilliant piece OF

done by Malone. the reiormer of Vir.

Boston districts. Boston being gener-
ally democratic city, the republican n

ing marvellous ingenuity. When the

WAGES AT HONE And IN ENGLAND

IFrom the Chicago Morning News.l
Maj. Shay, Uuited 2tates cOnsul al
Manchester. EngIafd, 6 short time
since forwarded = report TO our state
department.. at the request of secre-
tary Blaine. 1t contains certain inn
portant facts bearing upon American
industries. The publication of this
report has caused the organs Of pro-
lection and subsidies great deal of
distress, and compelled Them to eli-
ter into q series Of explanations in
order 10 break the force of its facts
and figures. A notable portion of the
report Is the comparison made be-
tween the wages paid in the cotton
Industries OF the two countries ;
which comparison, as given by Con-
sui Shaw, is as follows: English
weavers are paid from % 85 to So Ga
per week; Massachusetts weavers,
from 81 so to S8 81 English spinners
81 20 to % 40; American. 81 OF to
$40 80. In the Lancashire mills, for
January, 1881, the average wages Of
men were 90 per week; of women,
IS 40 to 81 80; in the Massachusetts
mills, mon $8 80. women $5 62; the
hours of work per week are. in Ian.
cashire fifty-six, in Massachusetts
sixty.
1t is claimed that the labor market
in Massachusetts was giutted when
these figures were taken, while in
England there was scarcity of labor
owing to Immigration to the United
States. Still, giving the subsidy jour.
nails the benefit of this statement, and
it will be seen that the condition OF
tho English artisan is much more fav.
orable, at least SO far Is the cotton
industry 10 concerned, than that OF
the American, for the reason that in
England house rent aud clothing are
from 25 to so per cent. cheaper thar
in the United States, while the diff
ference in the prices of provisions il
almost nominal. Oh account of the
strength OF American competition
and the construction OF through lines
Of traffic between the two countries
Mr.. Shaw's statement concerning
immigration only goes to prove that
while the manufacturer in America Il
heavily protected as against the com
petition of foreign goods, the laborel
is left wholly unguarded as respect
the competition Of the sO-called for
eign "pauper labor"
Mr.. Shaw, in his report, calls at
tention to the fact that, cas- genera
rule, the wages in continental Europe
are lower than in England. and even
there, in nearly every department o
industry, they are less than in th'
last-named country" But, in thiI
statement. he merely strikes heavy
blow at the entire subsidy system
for, while in England there is a tariff
for revenue only, in continental Eu
ropean countries nearly all the tariff
are based upon q system of protec
tiOn-at the same time that the coun
tries blessed by said tariffs pay tn
lowest wages outside of Asia. A few
more such reports would prove high
ly-entertaining reading to our su bsid!
champions.
