When it is proved that wages arc 50
much higher in this country than In
Europe, the Free-traders reply that the
cost Of living Is higher IN proportion
and therefore tn. savings arc no greater.
But tho evidence On the subject is per-
fectly clear. Fiznt, that the cost Of liv-
ing Is not materially higher. and second,
that the savings are very much greater.
Full details as to cost Of living In
Europe will be found in the Official re-
port from American consuls to the state
department at Washington. We give
only the conclusions Of the report:
"Food--It appears from the report
hereto annexed that the American work.
man consumes more and better food
than the mechanic or laborcr abrosd,
and that the cost of this food is a. small
in the United States o. in Europe.
"C1o.hing-In general clothing can b
purchased cheaper in Europe than in
the United States; especially clothing Of
tho higher grades. The Same influence
which proinrto the higher paid working.
man OF the United States to purchase
better and more varied food than his
European cen1rade. extends also to his
clothing. fer he buys moro and better
garments. Consul Shaw, Of Nanches-
ter, England, says: i believe clothing
similar to that which the English opcr-
ativcs wear can be purchased in the
United States st aboas tho Same price.
"Eouse rent in Europe is apparently
lower than hero, but tho habitstions are
usually inferior to those Of the United
States"
More exact and comprehensive inves-
LEGATIONS were made on the subject by
Carroll d. Wright. chief Of the labor
bureau Of Massachusetts,. in 1883. AT
that time he found that the average
cost Of living of workingmen in Aassa.
chusct.s, including rent. was II per
cent. higher than living on the Same
scale would cost in England. Exclud-
ing rent, the cost in Massachusetts, was
found to be only per cent. higher than
in England.
While there is this slight difference in
the cost of living, our laborers with
their high wages can live far better and
save besides almost a. much as the for.
eign workman earns.-American Econ.

The report of Messrs. Herring and
Gray regarding a sewerage system for
Roanoke is in the hands of Chairman
Huff, of the sewer committee. mas
much as he was the thick-aud- thin ad
vocate of the interceptor, it will be an
unpleasant crow for him to eat that the
experts go back on the famous tunnel.
1t was only by careful inquiry that
THE TINES has been able to obtain any
information regarding the report, as
the custodian of the report sedulously
holds it in his bosom.
If the statement is corroborated that
the interceptor is abandoned, TIE TIMES
has reason to congratulate itself and
the members of Council who opposed
the scheme that the city has been saved
thousands of dollars by the display of a
little civic courage. More of the same
sort all around is needed in Office and
out of office.
