EIGHTY CENTS A DAY.
How the Pennsylvania Iron Ore
Miner Is Protected.

Eighty cents day for native American
labor in Republican Pennsylvania and in
the well-protected iron industry? This
is the record for Lehigh county and the
wages are those of the miners who dig
the iron ore for the furnaces that crowd
the Lehigh valley. The Italian scaven-
gers who sweep the filth off of Chestnut
street, Philadelphia. are paid $3.50 for
their unprotected labor.
Macungie, where so cents day is con-
sidered an equivalent for days work,
is less than fifty miles from Philadelphia
and in country rich in iron ore. The
Macungie Iron Company has it's blast
furnaces there, and in the immediate
neighborhood are the mines of the Neu-
trail Ore Company, and Of the Warwick,
Crane and Thomas iron companies. At
Alburtis, few miles away, the Thomas
Iron Company has two furnaces,
and others are dotted thickly along
the lines of the East Penn and Lehigh
Valley Railroads. Both hematite and
Bessemer ores are found, and the iron is
among the best in the world.
The miners who work for so and 90
cents day are those who dig the hema-
tite ore. In the Bessemer mines where
the work is under ground and more like
that of coal mine, the men receive the
more munifcent sum of 81 25 a day.
Still less than the Philadelphia street
cleaners.
The Macungie Iron Company's furnace
is out of blast and won't resume
till trade improves. Meantime the
ore miners must go to work harvest
ing and haymaking to keep them
through the summer. Some of them are
tenants on farms, paying the rent by
farm-work. Others are German and
Irish immigrants. These live in shanties
erected by the ore contractors and do
their own cooking. Eighty cents day
covers their own cost OF living, for things
are cheap around there.
The men in the blast furnaces are paid
$1.40 to $3.50 for twelve hours labor
Hematite ore, 35 per cent. of which is
iron, costs at the furnaces only 1925 a
ton, and miner, whose wages are only
80 cents day and are included in this
price, digs about ton of it day. The
furnace men have recently secured re.
duction from the railroads OF Is per cent.
in freight rates, and yet they say they
cannot make living, with pig iron sell
ing at $17 and $18 ton.
This is in the district of Congressman
Sowden, who opposed the Mills bill.
The county has Democratic majority of
nearly 1000. and this year the Congress-
mans constituents seem disposed to re-
tire him from public life. They are will
ing to give the Mills bill chance and
see if it will not improve the rate of daily

One Of the 1904 Dollars.

Mrs. Constant Tourgee, who is visiting
her niece at No. 27 Lonsdale avenue,
Pawtucket, has in her possession one of
the rare silver dollars of the coinage of
1904, whose whereabouts has not been
publicly known until recently. The his
tory of this coin is interesting. Mrs.
Tourgee's maiden name was Elizabeth
Pierce, and she was the daughter of
Joshua Pierce, of North Kingstown.
Upon her 18th birthday (she is now in
her 10th year, her father gave her this
dollar, which he received at the close of
the War of 1912 as part payment for SER
vices in that war. and which he had kept
since that time, and she has faithfully
observed his injunction to always keep it,

OUR COUNTRY HOTELS.
Preparations For the Rush Oi
Tourists Next Winter.


Tourists Next Winter.
One of the hardest problems to solve
hereabouts few years ago was what
shall We do with the tourists who come
here to spend the winter? But this
question is no longer a puzzle. 1t has
been answered in the most approved
fashion. Besides the numerous hotels
and boarding houses which abound in
the city there is not a country town in
Los Angeles county that has not
its hotel. And these hostelries
are remarkably nice affairs. At
East San Gabriel is one which may
be taken as type of them all. This is
a spick and span new house. 1t is en-
powered in live oak trees and surrounded
by pretty lawn and parquettes of flow
ers. A wide veranda runs all around it
on the ground floor and also on the sec
ond story. Broad halls cross it in all the
stories, and it is furnished and uphol-
stored most comfortably and artistically.
The cool draperies around the win
dows such day as yesterday
had a positively delicious effect. There
are about one hundred and fifty rooms in
the hotel. The diningroom and its
appointments are really superb. The
house is kept by Mr.. and Mrs. Martin,
who are skilled in the business. The
chef in the kitchen knows his duties
we'll and the walters are neat and
attractive. 1t it really model country
hotel.

treaty negotiated under the direction OF

President nor the Democratic party the
slightest harm; and, indeed, about the
only practical effect of the virulent, un-
scrupulous, and, for the most part, ridic-

nouncement for the purpose of disabusing the

been redeemed at any time after, say,
five years, they issued straight 3G-year-
bonds and now. of-course, tire holders
will not surrender them. And the nat
ional government was not alone in this
effort i'm behalf of the bond-hOlders and
eastern monied men, for just after the
war, every republican state government
managed 10 get the state debts funded
into long term bonds bearing a high
rate OF interest, and even the county
bonds issued were of the same class,
running twenty and thirty years and
not redeemable before. Our own coun
ty. Barber. has had an experience of
this kind and, we are sorry to say. it
does not appear that our officials are
learning yet that they should issue none
but option bonds. Ten years ago a
bond bearing ten per cent. interest was
considered the only kind that could he
flOated; then il was found an eight-per-
cent. would bring a premium; then a
liye-per-cent. was accepted and now
there are many states and municipali-
ties able TO float bonds that bear but
three and One-half per cent. interest, and
in many Instances these low interest
bonds are redeemable at any time in the
pleasure of the state after five years.
If our government debt had been fund
ed on the same common sense plan,
every dollar Of the surplus could have
been applied to reducing the interest
bearing debt. AS it is, if bond is re-
deemed it is necessary to pay the east
ern holder a big premium for it, and the
republican party is directly response
bic for this state of affairs.
