Wool.

THE market has shown a decidedly livlier
tone the past week and there has been a
fair amount of wool sold, considering the
season and the state of the goods market.
There is no great improvement, however,
as the demand has been to a very great ex-
tent for sample lots, with the exception of
the foreign wool, which has been sold for
consumptive requirements. Ohio Xxx sells
at 90 to SOC, Ohio Y at 27t to CSC, Michigan
No. at 81 to 32c, Maine supers at 3S to SOC
and extra Western supers at p to 25c per

reason to believe that he will not dis

The mechanics, artisans and laborers
of to-day have an opportunity to COM
pare the cost of living twenty-tour years
ago with that of the present. Then there
we're no railroads across the continent;
everything used, except what was
grown, was brought a thousand miles
BY mule or OK teams, and fTeights were
proportionately higher, as much as $40
and $50 per hundredweight being paid
by merchants for the transportation of
their goods from the Missouri River.
The wages of mechanics were high.
but low in comparison with what are
paid nowadays. Carpenters received
SO so and$4 a day; masons and adobe
layers (there were very few bricks laid
them, 81 and $3.50; plasterers Sc and 81;
painters, So so and $4; laborers or
tenders, 50 and $3.50; blacksmiths, So
and 81; compositors, rs cents q thou
sand or $25 a week. Tn. Sc figures were
obtained from gentlemen who were EN-
ployers at that date, George Romney,
of Taylor, Romney & Armstrong,
furnishing the quotations for carpenters
and adobe layers, w. G. Morris those
for the painters, Philip Margetts the
blacksmiths' per diem. and the DeSeret
NelOs the cOmpositors' price.
How much the same class of citizens
earn at present can be answered by the
mechanics themselves. Carpenters and
builders get So and $3.50; plasterers
work chiefly by the yard; painters are
paid from $3.50 to So so; blacksmiths
average So day, and printers get 800 a
thousand on morning papers and 45c
on evening editions, and weekly wages
are SIS 10 $2l.
In 1864, mechanic had to toll for
four days for sack of flour; now he
works but one short day. For bushel
of wheat the early-day workman put in
about ten hours; the same individual
can now obtain about five bushels for q
days work. And, Just think of it! the

it remedy the inactivity of the kidneys,
but renews a regular habit of body,

some idea of how the people of those
days "got along" The wages of labor
ing men were not near as high In pro-

munity thrived, and everybody was
happy. The system of bartering was
carried on to a great extent, and store

And so on, through the whole list of
necessaries- and delicacies
were not thought of-the comparison
holds the same-so much in favor of
the present-day residents of this city
that the former day working classes
were poorly paid indeed. Yet, they
thrived; they built homes and cultl-
waited their garden spots; they accumu-
lated means and gathered around them
mforts; they passed through q
school OF experience which taught
them economy, and many of them
graduated with honors. The innova-
tons introduced with the advent of the
railroads worked changes, in many
respects great. but in the matter of
equallzlng values, the effect has not
been so marked. As the fancy articles,
the fashions and the tempting bric-a-
brac were brought here, there became
a gradual increase in the peoples
expenditures and corresponding
demand for more means to meet them.
