MINIMUM UAGES.

| A worthy clergyman. seeking a remedy for
the evils which the working people have to
| bear proposes as a solution Of the great prob
lem single law fixing 81 per day as the mini
mum wages of labor. But why so low? Why
not make the minimum $40 while we are
about it? If good can be done by this process.
if the great body Of working people can be
helped to more comfortable lives and happier
homes, would they not be more comfortable
| with 81 0 than with 80 per day?
Only the advance in wages, if effective, would
make the cost of producing all sorts of things
several times as great. Reckoning from the
unbroken prairie or the unopened mine to the
final product more than nine tenths of the
cost Of all things purchased is the cost of labor
Put the wages five times as high, and the cost
of things which the worker has to buy will be
raised also, perhaps not as much. but enough
to take away nearly all the desired benefit.
During the war, indeed when wages were
more than double the usual rate, the wage
Garner actually earned less than before, be-
cause prices had risen more than wages.
But that is not the worst. Production of a
great many things would be rendered impos-
sible not merely by an extrayagant minimum,
but by any minimum for wages other than that
fixed by the general demand for labor. If the
production Of this or that article should thus
be prevented, because at the price resulting
from higher wages it could not be sold, then
there must be fewer persons employed. How
would cOtton-growing advance with so per
day for every worker? What would farmers
raise if they had to pay S52 per month for
even the most unskilled hands?
Has the clergyman considered what injustice
his plan would work to the young man
just beginning to learn how to earn living ?
If he must have 50 or nothing, it would be
nothing So Of the many thousand cases which
arise every year of men forced out of one &C.
cupation and compelled to learn another; at
the outset they are willing to work for low
wages while learning, and can better afford to
do that than starve. But at 50 or nothing
who could employ them?
Sincerely philanthropic men, who see that
the existing state of things involves much hard
ship and wrong. are apt TO conclude that il has
no merit or meaning. does no good whatever,
and is the devils work altogether. But many
millions of workers in this world. who have
not acquired skill in any employment, find a
livelihood at all only Because they can work

THE INTERSTATE LAW.

"The Interstate law has come to stay" rail
road men are just now in the habit of saying.
That is also the opinion Of Mr. Reagan, who
considers that the policy of which he is the
reputed father must be immortal. II is also the
opinion of the Interstate Commission, who re-
gard its provision of honorable and responsible
duties, with fair compensation attached, as
emnently wise and beneficent. But if the
people who wanted the act come to believe as
Mr. Adams and Mr.. Fink and Mr.. Depew main
tain, that the practical effect of the measure
is to defeat all the cherished aims of its trainers
and Of those who demanded its passage, is 1t
certain that the measure will not give place
to something essentially different?
Practical people, in the main those of the
Northwest, expected great results from the
rate-for- distance enactment The results were
what they wanted; not the empty theory of
regulation. If ii be a fact, as competent rail
road men believe, that greater disadvantages
for the multitude of minor towns arise under
the act than existed when ii was supposed that
the larger cities were unjustly and secretly
favored, is it to be supposed than those great
disadvantages will be perpetuated by mulish
adherence of Western men to a method found
de1ecuVe! VI III III appears, dluer JWO years Vi
trial that greater Determinations between in
dviduals unavoidably arise through the work
ing of the act than existed prior to it's enact
ment, is it likely that the Western people will
sacrifice sub stance for shadow? They know on
the whole, quite as well as the railroad man
ayers whether these things are true. If they
have been taking the wrong way to get at
desired results, is it at all certain that they
will not find better?
There are not wanting evidences in cor
roboration Of the statement OF Nlessrs. Adams
Depew and others. For instance, shrewd
Western paper calls attention TO the remark
able advantage given under the act to ST. Louis
in competition with Kansas City and other dis
tributing centres further westward. Rates
from St. Louis being precisely the same to these
cities and to many Missouri River towns further
distant-the act only prohibits higher rates to
less distant points-it comes to pass that Kan
sas City merchant has to pay the entire amount
of freight at local rates from tn At city to other
towns in addition to the rate which the ST..
Louis merchant has to pay. For suGh adyan-
tages the St. Louis drummers are said to be on
the lookout, while Kansas City reports indi-
cate that complaints are both loud and deep.
The attempt to control rates by National
lenactments has been practically dofeat9d in a
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1888-12-21

great number Of cases, by the principle that
competition with water routes constitutes es-
sentially different circumstances and condi-
tionsn from those which exist where there is
no such competition. All along the lakes, and
the rivers which penetrate almost every part Of
the West, the enforcement of the law accord
ing to the wishes of its trainers becomes prac-
tically impossible. while it's enforcement in
other cases places the many points where 1t IS
operative under a tremendous disadvantage.
Practical men see that as to their business the
actual working of the law is exceedingly hurt
full, and many of them begin to understand that
its modification, so that it shall work exactly
as they desire, is not altogether easy.
There are signs that a radical change in the
law will soon be demanded-not mere modifica-
tons of detail, but vital and far-reaching
changes which amount in the aggregate to a
new and different system. And yet there is
not much concentration of opinion about the
alterations desired. Perhaps the conduct Of
railroad managers at the West may give an
unexpected turn to the current Of public opln-
ion this winter. 1t would be sensible, at all
events, if the Western advocates of reform
should begin to consider whether bad faith and
abuse Of power do not cause more mischief than
any natural competition.
