THE WORKER ABROAD.

A report has just made its appearance
on the conditions Of labor in Germany, one
Of the series which is being drafted on
labor in all countries for the information
of Royal Commission in England. 1t is
the custom 10 bemoan the status of the
workman and the workman's family in the
United Kingdom, but perusal of the
facts CLEANED about other European coun-
tries and the hard lot of toll must tend TO
radlate little cheerfulness. by showing
that misery is comparative, and that there
are various depths of poverty and poor re-
Quital for industry. II a similar way
those who are inclined to be Respondent in
the United States, those who are in en-
ploymeDt at least, have reason 10 feel that
the contrast is encouraging in their case.
Labor is undoubtedly better rewarded in
the United States than in any of the Euro
pean countries. Miners in Germany have
a maximum wage where they receive 81 a
day, and large numbers have no more than
Sc cents. Wages are lowest actually where
the working day is longest Thus, for 90
cents men are toiling at Kiausthal ten
hours a day, from bank TO bank of the
pits. The wages in the iron and steel and
metal industries generally range from
50 so to 81 70 per week, with hours rang
Ing from ten to twelve per day for the
lowest wages in Siesia. On omnibuses,
streetcars and other public vehicles, wages
run from 81 so to So week, and in the
case of epginemen TO SO; but the driver
of a hack works fifteen ard a half hours a
day for 81 50 week. Agricultural labor
ers receive all over the empire from
% cents to 30 cents day with board, dur
ing summer, and from So cents to 20 cents
without board. In winter there is a con-
siderable reduction of wages, and yet il
is the season when money is most needed.
Women employed in the fields receive
about half the wages OF men. Some are
paid only cents day, and q cents with
board is the maximum for permanent sum-
mer employment. The laborer who finds
employment in the forests is rewarded
with the pittance of 20 cents to so cent? Del
day.
In the textile trades wage Of "a 90 pei
week is common, with the hours twelve
per day. 10 Mulhausen, however. spin
ners are paid as much as So 20. The same
class of labor in England earns about
twice as much, but performs more wo RI
through DETER dexterity. Printers in
Germany are much better off than work
ers in other trades and are nearer
the English scale. The wages vary from

PRACTICAL AND PERMANENT.

Mrs W. o. Gould Of the Young Women's
Christian Association has an idea. When
asked how she would apply money raised
to help the unemployed women of the city
Mrs. Gould replied:
By starting some business by which the girls
and women could earn a livelihood.
This is an idea that may develop perma-
nent results. The largest of charity funds
give out. Men and women of means sub
scribe to carry unemployed people through
pinch, and when the pinch relaxes little
subscriptions cease. A better way is to
provide work which will keep girls and
women busy after the pinch Is over. This
State BOW presents the spectacle Of bring
pretty much all its work done while Civ
ing money to keep its own people from
absolute want. There are probably 1000
Chinese in good American houses, most Of
them doing work that after little expert
ence any one can do. A very large pro-
portion Of our families in moderate cir
cumstanceS employ Chinese laundrymen
and in various ways give Chinese employ
ment that white women would do il they
had the chance. The suggestion of Mrs
Gould opens a wide field for operations.
1t may lead to something more than can
be hoped for from measures to tide over a
dull season.
