STILL AFTER MEN WHO SPIT.
The association. said Mrs. Scrimgeour, is con-
tinuing its warfare against the great American
habit Of splitting. She criticised especially the
habit men have of splitting in the tunnels and pas
sageways at present leading to the platforms OF
the Brooklyn Bridge at the New-York terminal
She said that this fact made the approaches al
ditionally unpleasant for Brooklyn women. she
believes that women whose skirts become soiled
with filth in the streets carry disease germs on
their clothing to their homes. Mrs. Scrngeour
criticised also the mildress and inefciency or
signs. such the officers Of the ferry lines nave
placed In the cabins of the boats
"'Gentlemen requested not TO spit on the
hoor"" said she, scornfuly. why didn't they
put up signs saying that men are forbidden to
spit the floor? This splitting habit Is awful.
Why. men will cit and spit right at their own
feet when perhaps they have whole river to spit

Abuse ,von,tIIurt,

The Charles-Town Free Press, the old
est newspaper In West Virginia, found.
ed elghty-slx years ago, known
throughoutthe state rs ''thc old family
journal," during its entire career con-
sistent Democratic paper, and respected
everywhere for Its dignity and honesty,
has placed the Palmer and Buckner
ticket at It's masthead, because 1t cam
not support the ticket and platform
which represents reputation and ma
tlonal dishonor. ~
Because the Free Press has demon
.strated that 1t has the courage OF It's
convictions, 1t Is the target for the bill
lngsgate abuse OF the 'Popocratlc press
of the state, and nothing Is too mean for
the Popocratic editors to say about Its
courageous editor. Abuse will not affect
the old family journal. 1t was loved
and respected years before its detractors
we're born and had a political conscience
before the Democratic party fell into
the hands OF Its enemies.
The Free Press was present almost at
the birth OF the party and Jefferson him
self knew it. It stands by the principles
he taught to this day, when a new
school Of political theorists are trying to
folst. on the country heresy which is
foreign to any doctrine ever advocated
by the party of Jefferson.
The Intelligencer does not agree with
the Free Press In some things. but, as
one OF the next Oldest papers in West
Virginia it congratulates 1t. upon Its
stand for the national honor.

(Cut this out and put In your pocket
for reference.)
In the last leaflet attention was call
ed to the fact that the amount OF money
in the world had increased much more
rapidly than Its population In the past
half century. and especially the amount
OF gold. The gold money OF the world
as shown In that leaflet amounts TO six
times as much to-day as a half century
ago, and after taking into account the
increase In population. the amount OF
gold money in the world for indl-
vidual Is four times as great as half
century ago.
There Is. however. another test of the
actual value OF gold even more accurate
and Interesting than that which merely
considers the quantity Of that metal in
use as money. This test Is the amount
of gold which a given quantity Of labor
will buy. The only real standard Of
value In the world is labor. It Is this
which produces all commodities for
which gold IS exchanged, and 1t is, there
fore. the real standard by which to
measure gold. If a day or an hour OF
labor will buy less gold to-day than 1t
did fifty years ego then 1t may be prop
erly said that gold has appreciated"
II 1t will buy more gold to-day than It
did fifty years ago. then gold has depre-
cciated, and II each grain OF gold which
IN hour OF labor buys will also purchase
more of commodities than 1t did fifty
years ago, then the laborer has again
multiplied the value Of his time and
skill.
a committee of the United States SEN
ate, known as the Aldrich committee,
made thorough investigation few
years ago into the question OF wages
and prices; and after a long and thor
ough research made a report, the accu-
ra.cy OF which Ia generally accepted.
That investigation. showed that a days
labor in nvarly all the trades would in
1891. buy about; double the amount of
gold that iieadid fifty years earlier, and
do 1t with less hours OF work In O day.
For Instance, plasterers who, In the
good old free silver days OF 1870 got 81 so
per day,were paid 81 so in 1890: painters
whose wages In 1910 were 81 %, in 1890
were paid 81 so; wheeiwrights who
earned 81 rs In 1910 got 81 SO in $780,, en-
gineers who received 81 90 per day In
1910. were paid s. % In 1890, and so on.
Taking eleven Representative classes OF
workingmen engaged In the particular
industries, as a basis. 1t was found that
tHc uNeEuSc rute VI WdSeS advanced
from 81 80 per day In 1910 to So 81 In
1890. or thnt an hour OF labor would earn
nearly twice rs much gold In 1890 as It
did In 1870.
How.tien can 1T be asserted that gold
has s"appreciated?" It has deprecated,
and that highest and noblest OF ali
standards. human labor. will to-day
buy more of 1t than It did fifty years
ago, while the deprecated gold thus
purchased can In turn be exchanged for
more of other commodities which have
still further deprecated by the improved
methods OF production. manufacture
and transportation, which the Ingenu-
lily OF the human mind have produced In
the wonderful age In which we are lIv-
