AN AGENCY THAT RAISES WAGES.

Accordingly to the Pittsburg Times, a re-
cent occurrence in that city has forcibly
sustained the theory that increased use of
machinery acts Is potent agency for the
increase OF laborsrs' wages. This was the
action Of the natural gas companies in
cutting of supplies from manufacturing
establishments. This created an extra de-
mand for coal, and consequently an extra
demand for coal miners. And this de-
mand it has been found impossible to sup
ply. except by sending beyond the bound
cries Of the state. This statement rests on
the high authority OF the Pittsburg Coal
Exchange.
Until this fact was brought out by the
extraordinary demand, il was supposed
that the coal miners who had been thrown
out OF employment by the introduction of
natural gas had resorted to some similar
and perhaps less desirable form of labor,
and could easily Be recalled. But investi-
cation showed that the cheaper fuel Had
stimulated manufacturing and the use of
machinery, which in turn had created an
increased demand for . higher class of Ia
Dor. the ability to perform which had been
readily acquired BY the miners who had
been thrown out of their old employ ment
aud that the bulk of them are now perform
ing labor requiring more skill. for which
they receive enhanced wages.
OF course IL must be admitted than ON
the first introduction OF any device for saw
ing labor. the primary effect is to throw
certain number Of iaborers out of employ.

caused . prejudice against such machinery.

THE SEA IN STORM.

Over the leaden sea the wind blows shrill,
Hurting the pillows on me sullen shore;
II thunders wi h the battles brazen roar,
Piling the waves in many an angry hill;
The tempest bellows with maddened win.
What eurgfng harmonteo it, trumpets pour
In choruses that to the heavens soar,
And all the sky with rummbling sumut MI
While variations Of its Windswept vail
Are iutermingled with the sudden booms
OF seething breakers on the shore Of night
Ont of the tnky darkness and the gale
Calmly, denantly the lighthouse looms,
All-glorious in its wreath Of living light.

Aliance.' That settles 1t. and is an other way of saying that the politicians have been putting in their work with success.
 It will undoubtedly take the farmers of Connecticut several years yet before they come to understand the true nature of the politician and the way to get rid of him and do their own political busi- ness without being caught in his meshes. The organized wage, workers of the State have been undergoing the same ex. perence, and are now so demoralized in consequence that there doesn't seem to be enough of organization left to be of any practical benefit to its membership or to attract the further attention of the manipulators. There was some hope of a revival of spirit and vigor in the con templated union of the remnant with this farmers movement looked for; but the meeting at Putnam must dispel all such hope; unless the clear mnlcd among the farmer fraternity show in- depence and stamina enough to re- pudiate the fraud and commence the work anew away from the influence of the political Schemers. .-Hartford E,r- drainer.

The Hand of Esau.

For some time past there has been feeling among some of the more in- telligent of the Connecticut farmers that something should be done to better the condition of that portion of the working force of the State. They felt that the monopolist and his hireling, the poli- tician, were carrying things with high hand and needed curbing. The matter was discussed by members of the Grange and it was resolved that political league should be formed to work along on this llne. Such leagues were already in existence in New York and Massa- chusetts. But the politicians had their ears open and set watch on the pro- ceedings.
 A dispatch from Putnam the other day tells of a league being formed in that town, with some of the prominent men of the place as officers. "Connecticut," says the dispatch, lis to have State league as soon as enough town branches are organized. It claims not to conflict, but to be an auxiliary body to the c. ange, and Is opposed to the extreme views promulgated by the Western Farmers

ImpecuniOus Clerks Aping Cheap
 SWells.

The impecunious department clerks in
 Washington, who have been for many
 years in the clutches of the money lend CTS, "the ten per centers", as they are
 called, have determined to rebel. They
 have, it is true. often rebelled before,
 but to no purpose. Now they are in
 earnest and determined to be free. To this end they are organizing an asso- citation of money borrowers, who will agree to ignore the ten per centers alto
 gether and make an arrangement with
 some reputable capitalist to furnish
 them necessary funds at something less than the ten per cent. month which is the usual interest rate of the leeches. It
 seems rather strange that Government l clerk should find it so much more neces- sary to borrow money than men em-
 ployed in private business pursuits. It is
 a fact, however, that large majority
 of the young men in the Government
 service are in a chronic state of impecu-
 niosity. There is something in the nature of their work that seems to compel them
 to spend more than they earn. The work
 that they do is so light and genteel that | they feel obliged to wear good clothes
 and ape the manners of cheap swells. | To do this a certain amount of cash in
 addition to their salaries is necessary.
 This must be had somewhere, and, as l the clerks can give no security, they
 cannot go to the banks. The llsurer is 1 the only recourse, and to him they must l pay five and ten per cent. per month for small loans. This is practically extor-
 ton, but there are hundreds of depart
 ment clerks in this city who have been
 paying it for years, and who are now so | deep m the clutches of the sharks that
 they cannot hope to escape except by some heroic means. There are at least i q dozen men in Washington who have 1 grown rich by lending money to the 1 clerks at an exorbitant rate of interest
 and they can only be driven from the
 business by the combined efforts of all ] the chronic borrowers. For several years and up to a short tune ago the
 Government made itself a sort of part ner in the usury business by allowing the clerks to give the lenders orders on their pay, which would be honored by
 the disbursing agents. This practice is done away with now, and the lender must take his own risks in lending the clerks money. The risk Is, of course, very slight, as whenever the clerks are hard pushed by their other creditors they are compelled to turn to their ten l per cent. friends for relief.-N. | Slui.
