The American Economist alleges that

fortunately they are not such as TO stand
criticism. On July y. for the third or
fourth time, The Economist announced
that there had been IA general increase
of ) per cent. III the wages Of the en-
ployees of the Kings County Knitting
company III Brooklyn. A man was sent
to investigate this case. After much
trouble and search he at last heard that
the company was located in the suburbs
Of Brooklyn; reaching there he found
that the firm had removed to another
remote corner of the same city. At last
he found the great concern in the top
floor of IA building. 1t consisted of three
men ana ten to fifteen girls. The pro-
prietOr, VINO happened to be ON hand,
could remember Of no advance in wages
until reminded Of The American Econ
omists announcement. Three of the
girls were also seen; each declared that
there had been no advance in wages to
her knowledge, but that they were earn
ing less than in previous years.
The search will be continued and it is
hoped that more favorable reports may
be made, though tho outlook is not
promising.

father while they live, and to go to the
happy hunting grounds and have an
~eternally good time when they die.
Among those who have enjoyed several
interviews with the great father in
question is an Otoe Indian named
Whitewater, who makes expeditions to
Washington from the Indian Territory
occasionally in behalf of his people, who
have the utmost confidence in his vast
abilities. There is no man of his race
more widely known in the west than
Whitewater, although IA great part Of
his life has been spent in the peniten-
tiary. whore he opportunities for achiev-
in@ distinction are no conspicuollsl.y
