The comparison is with the fifteen

THE YEARS INCREASE IN WAGES.
New York Press.
While Senators Aldrich, Vest, Hiscock
and Carlisle were vigorously debating
the question of an increase in wages
since the passage of the Mckinley bill
it did not occur to any of the Republican
Senators to call attention to the census
reports on this subject. A reference to
the census would have brought out the
fact that the average yearly earnings of
an employe (this includes men, women
and children) in 1860 were 5000; in 1870.
reduced to gold standard, it was $500;
in 1880 it had reached $50, while the
rate of Increase estimated on figures of
the census of 1890 already made public,
indicate that the average earnings will
be at least $400, and probably consider
ably in excess of that amount. For ex-
ample, here is a table showing the total
wages paid in 1880 and in 1890 in the
wooden. cotton and silk industries.

PUBLIC OPINION.
ALL WOULD FEEL IT.

Pittsburgh Dispatch.
Comparison of wages paid in the
United States with wages which are
paid in free trade countries is the best
practical test for the workingmen of the
difference between the results of the
two policies. 1t is not merely the labor
engaged directly in protected industries
which is better paid in the United
States, but all classes of labor-each
class being intimately connected with
and Influenced by the condition of the
other. The prosperity of the whole
country becomes evident when its man
ufacturers prosper. The extent to which
all interests through the country depend
upon its manufacturing industries is
well known to every observer but the
most superficial.
In Pittsburgh and for hundred miles
around, we see cities and towns built up
and communities almost wholly depend
ent upon successful manufacturers. The
same is largely true of Philadelphia, of
the towns Of New Jersey and New
England, with the exception of a few
which would of course survive though
with far less prosperity, if relying solely
upon their seaport functions. All classes
of labor find such demand and under a
healthy activity in manufacturers as
warrants the better wages which are
paid in the United States. One class
can not be affected without affecting the
others very soon. The only result of
free trade would be to shut up American
manufactures, and get the goods from
Europe. That would bring down wages
quickly in every calling.

Great Britain's fiscal year ends on
September 80, and consequently the last
fiscal year ended just one year after the
approval of the Mckinley bill. The total
value of Great Britain's exports to the
United States in that year was Sl76,-
3l5,826.70 as against S205, 5,507 ,499.69 in
the previous fiscal year. As the Senate
Finance sub Committee reported unan
imously that wages in the United States
were high .r and the cost of living lower,
it is fair to presume that the difference
has benefited us.

the competition of American cloth in

law the average weekly wages of
weavers in Bradford, the great wooden
manufacturing center of England, de-
creased from SO in 1890 to $3.09 in
1891. That is heavy decrease for one
year. Meanwhile the Senate Finance

Gratis, unanimously reported the other
day that wages in the United States are
higher than they were before the enact
ment of the Mckinley law.

why Flowers sleep.

That flowers actually sleep is evident
to the most casual observer. The daisy
opens at sunrise and closes at sunset,
hence its name-''day's eye" The
morning glory opens with the first faint
streak Of light, but never lives to SEQ
another day The '.John-go- to-bed at
noon" awakes at four o'clock in the
morning. but closes its eyes during the
middle of the day; the dandelion is in
full bloom only during strong light
This habit Of some flowers is certainly
very curious and furnishes one of the
many instances which prove the singu-
lar adaptability of everything in nature
The reason for all this is found in the
manner by which this class of flowers
are fertitized. II is OBVIOUS that
flowers fortified by night-aying insects
would derive no advantage by being
open during the day. and. on the other
hand, that those which arc fortified
bv bees and other day-fyers would gain
nothing by remaining open at night
Why may we notssuppese. then. that
the closing and opening of flowers may
have reference To their relations with
the different classes of insects2 In
support of the theory (which is not new.
by any means we may observe that
wind fertilized flowers never sleep

If the next congress is Democratic and

This is now the second great wool

365 sheep, valued at *116. 121 ,290. which
produced last year 1874, 000. 900 pounds OF
wool, or more than 50 per cent. of all
the wool manufactured in the United
States! This wool represents an add
tional value to the farmer of more than
one hundred millions of dollars, and this
is an annual and increasing product.
Now suppose the Democratic policy OF
free trade were in operation, how much
do you think this wool would sell fori

POPULlSTS SUPPORT HARRISON.

Hrs. Lease Recommends This in View of
Southern Treatment of Weaver.
A special to the Democratic New York
Times from Topeka. Kan, says:
The sensation of tho day in Kansas is
the interview with Mrs. Lease, who has
been accompanying General Weaver in
his tour through the southern states.
She recites the indignities they were
subjected to and then declares tnat if a
vote for Weaver is in reality vote for
cleveland in this state her desire is that
the Populists scratch their ticket and
vote for the Harrison electors.
Mrs. Lease is, next to Jerry Simpson,
the strongest leader Of the Kansas Popu-
lists, and her expressed wishes have
caused great CONSERVATION not only in
her own party, but among the Demo-
Gratis.
She comedies every southern state to
Cleveland, and therefore at this late day
indicates her preference for Harrison.
Her advice will be followed by many,
but at this time it is impossible to say to
what extent.

RUsK ON THE TARIFF.

The Secretary of Agriculture Tells Why
He Favors Protection.
The following is an extract from a
letter on protection and reciprocity re-
Gently written by the secretary of agri
culture, Hon. j. NJ. Rusk:
On all articles except those we cannc!
produce or manufacture ourselves under
any circumstances l would levy duty
sufficient to make foreign goods cost,
when landed and duty paid in any port
of the United States, fully as much as
the cost of manufacturing the same goods
in this country amounts to; and this !
believe in, without any reference to the
old accepted argument of Infant in
dustries."
would stick to this principle all the
way through, except only in the case of
foreign goods coming from countries
which could make such concessions on
American goods as would fully offset
any concessions we might make to them,
for am a believer In reciprocity. In
fact, SO long ago as April, 1890, in a
communication which prepared to send
to all persons-and they were legion
who addressed me on the subject of ag-
ricultural depression, referred to the
advantages of reciprocity.
At the same time think it will very
seldom be found necessary to surrender
adequate protective duties on any for
eigr goods such as we can manufacture
In this country. Our reciprocal rela-
tions with countries in the temperate
zone. growing largely the same kind of
agricultural products and living under
comparatively the same conditions, will
always be very limited. But just as we
have exemplified in the case of sugar, Of
which at present we do not produce
quantity sufficient for our domestic sup
ply, SO in regard to tea, coffee and spices,
which come to us from tropical or semi
tropical countries, there is a consider
able opportunity for the exercise of this
sound economic principle. would have
America buy these goods in countries
that buy American goods, putting duty
upon such as come to us from countries
that put a duty upon our goods.
II is American labor we want to pro-
tect, and American homes, and do not,
as consistent protectionist, regard as
subject for free trade any article into
the production of which, in a form avail
able for use, American labor enters. If
the conditions are such, for instance, in
Canada, that Canadian farmer can
raise certain crops more cheaply than
we can, would protect our American
farmers by putting such duty on these
products that Canadian farmers could
not undersell them. In the same man.
ner would protect our fruit growers
from Mediterranean fruits, and would
encourage the fiber industry in our own
country, SO that eventually the bulk of
aur hemp, fax and other vegetable fibers
should be produced at home. / am for
the protection Of the American laborer's
home and labor, but am equally intent
On protecting the American farmers
home and labor.
