The voluntary advance of drivers
wages from $1.G5 to $1.S5 per day is
analysed by the JOURNAL as follows: !:
When the price for mining coal
was 65 cents per ton, drivers pay
was S2.40 per day-not $2.4S, as
some will claim. The fall from 65
to so cents in the one case was
equivalent to reduction of IA trifle
over % per- rent. Discount $2.40 in
the same way and we have $1.S5, per
day as the equivalent of 80 cents per
ton for mining.
So that the advance from $1.65 to
$1.S5 per day is restoration of the
drivers to the st0tUs occupied by
them about the time the companies
regained their property from tie con-
trol of the Knights Of Labor.
The JOURNAL intimated that some
will claim that the rate was $2.4S.
But it ought to be remembered that
although this was the price paid for
time, it was the drivers price, not
the companies'-that the companies
paid it under the duress ola Knight
ly oligarchy--paid it because ad-
vantage was taken of their contract
necessities-paid it because they
could not for some time help them
selves. When they recovered the
management of their property, how
ever, this was a sore that still hurt
hurt so bad that while mining
wages were ultimately reduced 23
per- cenf., drivers wages eventually
went down nearly 334 per- rent.
The step taken the other day
restores par, and, compared with the
past, restores equality with good
prospect Of permanency. For under
the current order OF things whoever,
individually Or Observation-Disclosures
strikes, does so against, not his or
their employers, but agaiast the con-
sUmerS Of Mer OrH products.

Gov. LLOYD retires from the
gubernatorial chair. He goes out of
office after one of the manifest ad-
ministrations Maryland ever enjoyed.
From his defiance of the lions of i'm
peachment right in their den down
to his spirited denial Of the plea TO
restore fugitive from justice to the
lmmunities of A l society, he has
been, locally considered, manly
man all the way through.
His course generally has equally
impressed the State with his sterling
worth as an executive.
The JOURNAL hopes it has not
heard the last of him in public lite.
