ANOTHER INSTANCE.

A little over q year ago, in the very
hey-day OF McKinleyism, the Lowell
Manufacturing Company, Of Massachu-
chusetts, one Of the largest manufact-
cries of carpets in the United States,
cut down the wages of their employees.
That was in December, 1898, and the
Mckinley tariff had then been in opera
tion about four years.
August 2s last, the Mckinley tariff
was repealed and the Democratic VIII
son bill became the law, and just one
week later the wages of the companys
employees were increased.
The reduction was made because OF
the heavy tax on carpet woCls. The
increase was made because the tariff tax
has been removed from wool.
The following letter from the treasur-
err Of the company 10 gentleman in
Milwaukee makes the matter clear:
Lowell Manufacturing Company %

APLAINLY DISHONEST TRICK.

The Iptc1igcnccr, which does rot ap-
pear to be built so that it can learn any
thing, is still battering its poor political
head against the stone wall of facts
which Mr.. julius POLLOCK, the Demo
cratic candidate for State Senator, has
erected regarding silver and the tariff
and wages
As the REGISTER has already shown,
Mr.. Pollock knows from his own
actual experience in his long and active
business career exactly what he is talk
ing about, while the IntclJigc1ccr gets
It's Information from campaign text
books which are meant to deceive and
misead by adroltly distOrting facts and
juggling with figures.
MIR. Pollock has stated what every
middle aged workinEman knows to be
true, namely that under the tariff policy
Of the Republican party and since the
characterization Of silver by JOHN SHEER
MAN the rate Of the wages Of labor has
steadily declined.
The absurd Irtclligcnccr declares that
Mr.. Pollock does not know what he is
talking about and to prove it, takes up
its little campaign text book and writes,
no, about the rate Of wages paid per
man, but the total amount Of wages
paid to all labor, which, of course, has
increased. while the rate of wages has
decreased. Ii says:
In the forty years ending with 1890 the
average increase in wages was nearly lei
per cent, and in the twenty years ending
with 1890 il was 50 per cent II is shown
in the latest census that la the decade end
inC with 1890 in seventy-Oue cities OF this
country the average annual increase II
earnings of labor was 40 per cent
This has nothing whatever to do with
the question as to the rUtco Of wages, and

may have decreased ever so much. It
is the decrease In the rate of wages
which Mr.. POLLOCK referred to and
which the Intelligencer more or less art
fully tries to disprove by quoting the
census figures regarding the aggregates
paid to labor.
For instance, say $50 men 40 years
ago received 50 per man or $500 alto
gether, and 1000 men to-day received
but 81 per man, but $1,000 altogether.
the Intelligencer would cali that an
increase of wages of 100 per cent!
And it Is an increase OF 100 per cent,
in the aggregate sum paid in wages
but it is decrease per man Of so per
cent, and it is the latter count. the rate
OF wages, in which alone the individual
laborer is interested, and which tells
whether labor Ia general is receiving
higher or lower wages, OF is prosper
Gus or the reverse.
VIII the IntClligencer hold that the
workingman is better of because 1000
of him at 81 day are now receiving
81, 900, whereas ESQ OF him used to re-
ceive $500, at So day? According to
its trick mode Of computing an increase
Of wages the InteIligencer would hold
that the 1000 81 men were better off,
because they earned $1,000, than the
$50 50 men who earned in the aggregate
but $500. But the workingman does
not 1gure his wages in that way.
The Iltelligencer has practiced a
dimsy piece of deception which no hon
est newspaper would be guilty Of Its
attempt in this manner to disprove Mr..
POILoCK's able and sensible utterances
on subject with which he is thor
oughly familiar is plain and deliberate
attempt to deceive which is no less an
insult to labor's intelligence than it is
grossly dishonest.

The Fetner we'll at Steubenvills is
still attracting considerable attention,

At Marietta the Perdue we'll is still
holding up in production, and the ex-

not in the Cow Run sand, but in an ex-

There is quite a lot Of new work in
progress near Steubenvills, O., in the
new field opened up by the Given's well
on the Fetner farm. II is opinioned by
reliable oil men that good field has
been opened up 10 that section.
The Florence OIL Company, the Ohio

the Fetner well.
Banner & Company brought In their

In the COchransYille field work is
going on as briskly as ever. All the
companies which have leases in that
section are putting up rigs or drilling
wells and work is exceptionally good
there.
The Royal Gas Co. of Philadelphia,
have finished rig on the Stewart farm
in the above field and commenced spud-

A local company whose name could

ELKINs' rRIOKERY.

The Hon. STEVE ELKINs, the political
freebooter from New Mexico who
wants to paw his way into the United
States Senate through the West Vir-
ginia door, is making some, even for
MIN, very reckless assertions in his
calamity bowls down in the State.
In mis- latest attempt to hoodwiuk the
people he tells them the Democratic ad-
ministration irresponsible for the $780,
600, 600 bond issue made at the opening
OF Mr.. CLEvELAND's present term.
Mr.. ELKINs knows this is pure false
hood for he was in HARRIsoN's cabinet
and knows that the plates for the print
ing Of those bonds were already pre-
pared by HARRIsON's Secretary Of the
Treasury, who would at once have issued
the bonds had not the small schemer in
the White House ordered him not to do
so, preIerring to shirk his duty and put
it upon the broad shoulders of the in
coming Democratic administration rath-
er than honestly face the results OF bis
own administration extravaganza and
corruption.
The last Republican administration
aud it alone was responsible for that
$50, 600. 600 bond issue and Mr.. EIkins
is perfectly aware Of the fact.
This exhibition of petty trickery OF
a sort which q gutter politician would
hesitate to indulge in, is not calculated
to demonstrate to the people Of West
Virginia that Mr.. Elkins is a man Of
sufficiently Large calibre to represent
them in the United States Senate.
