Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1885-1890, 1886-08-21

Denver, Col, special: A work of
nature which will prove a study for
scientists has recently taken place on
the Cimarron river in western Colo
RADIO. The scene is located in the
mountain range about twelve miles
back Of Cimarron station On the Den
yer & Rio Grande railroad, and the
work consists of an upheaval of land
two miles square as if by volcanic
action. The country, which was
naturally hilly and broken, with a
heavy covering of trees, was found to
have been visited by an internal erup-
ton which had displaced a tract about
two miles square, causing a large lake
to lose its water and its bed to stand
at an angle of 45 degrees. Where
there had been hills valleys now ap-
peared, while the valleys were up
heaved into hills. Trees stood in all
conceivable shapes, some of them be-
ing reversed with their roots freed
from the dirt, standing skyward,
while the leaves and branches were
buried in the debris. The whole sec
ton is SO much changed as to make
it unknown to those who were hearto-
fore acquainted with it.

ard of living is raised and the luxu-
ries of life increased and cheapened.
We mark how capital accumulates
and drifts toward Capitalization and
combination. We look longer and
nearer our own time. We see that
the productions Of the soil cannot be
indefinitely increased by science and
machinery, and that eve now it has
reached nigh its maximum limit.
From this we see that the ever in
creasing population relatively raises
the cost of the necessaries of life and
subtracts SO much from the profits Of
labor. Thus although the laborer's
money wages have been raised as
compared with those of his fellow
workmen three hundred years ago,
yet their purchasing power is practic-
ally no greater now than it was then.
His wages were then based upon the
cost of living screwed down to starva-
ton point. They stand on the same
old basis today and they will stand
there forever. Labor could save very
little in the past, can save but next to
nothing at the present and its hope
to save in the future is but a blank
and gloomy void. Hence we may set
it down that the inevitable tendency
of the dustrial system is to decrease
the relative demand for labor, into in
crease production, to grant to the
laborer ever less and less of the sum
Of increasing wealth, in short to make
production in agriculture as we'll as
in manufacture a matter Of machinery
and capital. To substantiate the
above we will quote authority as fixed
and unbeniable as automatic truth.
By the .. S. Census the sum of wages
in 1850 was % per cent. of the PREDICTS;
in go, 21 per cent; in 10, 10 per cent;
and in 80, but II per cent. Again
the sum paid for wages in 1850 was
A. per cent Of the capital invested. In
1880 but 81 per cent. Furthermore
the thirty years from 1850 to
80 the amount paid out for wages in
creaaed 800 per cent upon itself du-
ring the same time capital increased
1913 per cent. Thus arrange the sta
in any form Or shape, bring
forth facts many or few, study and in
the inherent causes of the
case, all point inexorably to the same
conclusion, that capital is advancing
than labor.

"Good night, DOCTOR"
AS the doctor reached the street he
muttered TO himself:
"He will not be likely TO look at 1t there
until his attention is called to it.'
Mr.. Yerdley locked the front door, ex-
tinguisned all the lights except the
one over the dispensing desk and turned
it low. Then he went into the back room,
where his friend lay on the sofa behind the
door, smoking.
They had been playing chess when the
''bottie OF anarchy" was called for, and 1t
was the druggists move when he re-
turned to the board. He had thought 1t
out while in the store. and now promptly
made quite unexpected move that in
staDtly rIveted Renfrew's attention on
the game. They played on, without a
thought of how the night was wearing
away, until the clock struck2.
Then there came sharp ringing at the
druggists night bell, almost instantly fol-
lowed by second and quickly by third.
Mr.. Yardley sprang quickly TO the door,
in obedience to the imperative summons,
and admitted DR.. Ladue. The doctor was
pale and seemed much agitated- -
