WAGES THE WORLD OVER.
Enormous Variations From State to
State and Country to Country.

1t is popularity supposed that the
immutable law of supply and de
mand operating throughout coun-
try makes the wages for the same la
Dor uniform in every part Of it, as q
dearth of labor in any one place can
not be CT long duration while men
are employed elsewhere A recent
supplementary bulletin of the manu-
features of the United States, how
ever, shows this general view to be
false.
In Colorado the average yearly
earnings of an employee of manu-
featuring company was 1920, in
Montana, 1922, in Nevada, $7lS, and
in Wyoming. $76S In the states
where colored labor is abundant the
the total average earnings are much
less. In Alabama the average is
1876, in Mississippi 1910, in North
Carolina $2l6. in Georgia 1907 and
South Carolina 1867. In New York
the average is $3.50, in Pennsylvania
1892, in Ohio $479 and in Massa-
chusetts S494. When tits considered
to what extent the female and child
labor enters into the factory opera
tions in New York, the figures arc
surprisingly high. The total wages
paid in New York manufacturing
enterprises amount in ordinary
years to S500,000,000.
England stands at the head in
Europe as the best market for labor
Scotland and France are little be
hind her. Then there is heavy
drop until Austria, the Netherlands
and Belgium are reached The scale
goes still lower in Germany, where
the rate is the same as in Ireland
Spain, Sweden, Russia and Italy fol
low here in the order given. Ac
cording to the table of Bodio, ar
Italian authority, glassblowers are
the best paid mechanics in Italy
ard paper makers the poorest The
rate of wages in Italy, low as it is
now, was still lower rs years ago
In England the increase in the rate
Of wages has been about 90 per cen
in 25 years A French bricklayel
now gets so per cent more wages
than were paid for his work il
France 40 years ago.

A Wonderful Discovery.

We have heard talk of wonder
full country where a belt Of apple
jack lay right under the surface of
the ground, ready to be tapped by
the driller's bit, and a good friend.
living near Arnettsville, has for
years contended that his farm was
over such a belt, but never till we
picked up the last issue of the
Smithton (Pa.) Register did we
dream that such country would be
discovered in our time The follow
ing account, aiken from the Regis
ter, speaks Tor itself The failure of
the apple crop last year d doubtless
accounts for the spring flowing
whiskey instead of apple jack The
Register says:
"One Of our enterprising young
farmers, while digging ditch
through a swamp, about a year ago,
found what he first thought was a
round stone about the SIZE of a co.
coanut, but after examining it. he
found that it was an old bomb shell.
As to how it got there no person
knows. But after digging few feet
farther he found an old wall which
be afterwards learned was the ruins
Of an old time distillery. But the
thing never was investigated until
few days ago, when be started To
dig the wall out At one corner,
which was nearest the hill. the
stones were damp and had a rusty
color After digging farther back
toward the hill the stones began to
get more damp, and smelled as
though they were soaked in whiskeY.
A few feet farther be came to ledge
of soft sandstone, and therefrom a
small crevice was dripping a huid
which proved TO be pure whiskey.
This is the first whiskey spring that
ever was discovered, and hundreds
of people from all parts Of the coun
try, have been aocking there to see
it. Its source is as yet unknown, but it
is supposed that when the distillery
which was a good one, perhaps bar
rels of whiskey were buried away in
the hill, and during the dry weather
this summer the hoops have fallen
off the barrels and the whiskey is
slowly soaking through the soft
sandstone This is only supposi-
ton, and the spring may really be a
natural one. All lovers of the cur
ious, should not fail to visit this
wonderful spring, where the old
bomb shell may be seen and sam
pie of the fluid may be had.

When does advertiser pay?
When the darkness follows day,
When the winter precedes spring,
When the song birds learn to sing,
When the deaf no longer hear,
When the Anarchist loves beer,
g When the chickens feathers wear,
When the sailor learns to swear,
When the shiftless go in debt,
When the running streams are
wet,
When the tramp for leisure yearns
When the ice no longer burns,
When the business man is wise
Then the time to advertise.

The Clarksburg News seems to be
the only paper in the State that
feels aggrieyed by the election of DIR.
Goodnight as President of the I'm
iversiiy, and hints that 1.-THE Board
of Regents and some of the State of
ticers have made themselves objects
of censure by the means employed
in making the selection We do
not understand what the News can
be driving at. The fact is DIR. Good
knight was elected by the votes of the
eight members of the Board present.
Several gentlemen had been men
toned in connection with the presi-
dency, ans three of whom were be-
fore the Board and gave their views
as to the best manner of conducting
the University. After hearing these
gentlemen and considering the
question fully, the Board, by unan-
imous vote, elected DR.. Goodnight.
No one but DR.. Goodnight was men
toned when the vote was taken, and
no one came within one vote of cleo
ton. The insinuation that the Gov
ernor opposed the reelection of DR..
Turner to the presidency lis without
any foundation, in fact. Whatever
may be the personal opinions of
Governor MacCorkle, we do not
know that he did not attempt to in
tluence the Board of Regents in it's
choice of a president. The News
certainly has been misinformed
about what was done by the Board
of Reconsideration Inder

At its recent annual meeting in
Morgantown, the Board of Regents
of the University of West Virginia,
made quite a number of changes in
the Faculty of that progressive seat
of learning. Among these changes,
the editor Of the Democrat is pecu-
liarly gratified to note the appoint
ment to the Chair of Ancient Ian
guages, that accomplished scholar
and courageous gentleman of Bar
louisville, Bobert W. Douthat, A..
M. Phi. d.
During the war, Mr.. Douthat-
better known as Captain Bob Dou-
that-commanded a company from
Montgomery county, Virginia, in the
Eleventh Virginia Infantry, Kemp
er's Brigade, Pickett's Division. He
was recognized by his regimental,
brigade and division commanders,
as one of the most reliable captains
in the service He was in several of
the fiercest and bloodiest battles of
the civil war and his courage was
of the highest order, emanating from
lofty sense of duty and net an out
burst of mere animal spirits.
Since the Civil war, Mr.. Douthat
has devoted his whole time end ener
gies to the double, but consistent
work, Of improving his own natural
ly strong mind and educating the
minds of the youth of the country.
Besides a thorough knowledge of
the classics, he has mastered many
Modern Languages. We are in
formed that he is familiar with at
least sixteen Of the languages now
in use among men. We most cor
daily congratulate the University
Of our State on its good fortune in
securing the services of such an &C
complished educator as Mr. II. w.

Reader, did you ever take SIMMONS
LIVER REGULATOR, the "KING OF
LIVER MEDICINES 2" Everybody needs
take liver remedy. 1t is a sluggish or
diseased liver that impairs digestion
and causes constipation, when the waste
that should be carried off remains in
the body and poisons the whole system.
That dull, heavy feeling is due to q
torpid liver. Biiiousness, Headache,
Malaria and Indigestion are all liver
diseases. Keep the liver active by an
occasional dose of Simmons Liver Reg
ulator and you'll get rid Of these trou-
bles, and give tone to the whole sys-
TEN. For a laxative Simmons Liver
Regulator is BETTER THAN PILLS. 1t

Reed, Mckinley, Allison and their
friends profess not to be afraid of
the candidacy of ex President Har-

ostensibly for the White House was
really meant for portrait of the
next republican candidate for Presi
dent. The ex President is night
