Valentine Kasparek. who was
forced on the Democratic county
ticket by George Geissel. in prefer
ence to Democrat, has claimed to
he a Republican ever since he became
Il voter. He has been in the Repub-
lican party this year, was delegate
to the Republican countyconventi"n
in June. and ON Thursday, Oct. |,
was soliciting the Republican nomi-
nation for county auditor. He was
not mentioned in the convention, be:
cause no delegate favored him. That
afternoon, after the Republican con-
ventiOn had declined to nominate
him, he announced himself as free
silvertte, and became an independent
candidate for county auditor, with
the promise OF Geissel and Others
that he should receive the Dem CORA tic
endorsement. Saturday some OF the
local Democrats who had before
urged Kasparek to enter the field,
and promised Democratic help be-
came alarmed at the Democratic OPP
position and Kasparek drew out Of
the field. On Saturday afternoon
Kasparek informed areporter Of the
Transcript that he had withdra wn
from politics, was not an independ-
ent candidate for auditor, and would
not accept a Democratic endorsement
or nomination. He further said he
"would continue in the mercantile
business, 1t was more profitable and
honorable than politics" On Mon
day George Geissel forced the Demo-
cratic Office seekers in line again tor
Kasparek, and by hard work barely
succeeded in placing Kasparek, at
the head OF the Democratic ticket.
To what element of honest voters
can Kasparek appeal for support?
His political pretentions are certainly
un worthy AT any confidence. Ee has
no convictions that he will not sur
render for the sake of votes. and
when man will take the course he
has for the purpose of getting office
he must disgust every voter who
gives his allegiance to a cause from
honest convictions. He ia another
example Of advocating free silver
with the hope of getting q county
income by it. 4. HI: M

WAGES SINCE THE CRIME"
Statist tics Showing the Increase In
Wages Since 1879. "A

Stats tics Showing the Increase In
Wages Since 1879. "a
The country resumed specie pay
ments upon a gold basis on Jan. 1,
1879, and it has ever since maintained
them. We appeal to the individual ex-
perience of our readers to decide
whether, since 1879, wages and salar.
les have not risen, and whether it Is
any harder to get them paid now than
it was then. Speaking for the Sun, we
assert with pleasure that we are now
paying higher wages and higher sal
aries than we were in 1879, and are
employing more men. As to other en-
ployers we will let statistics tell the
story. s n
Il i.According sto theNensus Of 1880, the
year after the gold standard had be-
come supreme, the number Of employees
in manufacturing Establishments that
year was 2,732, 595, and the aggregated
wages paid them was $947, 1853, 795, or
an average Of 1924 each. In 1890 the
number of employees was 4,712,622,
their aggregate earning were $2,283,-
216,529, and the average earned by
each was $4S9. Here was an increase
of nearly one-half under a standard
which Mr.. Bryan says 'both lessons
the amount and threatens the perma-
hence" of the rewards of labor. /
y Since the census of 1890, commit
tee Of the senate of the United States
Of which Senator Aldrich was chair
man, reported in 1894 upon the subject
of wages and prices, that in twenty
one selected Industries wages were In
money 40 per cent higher in 1880 than
they were in 1860, and 60 per cent
higher in 1891 than they were in 1860,
while the prices Of staple articles had
fallen between 1880 and 1890 in some
instances one-third.-New York Sun.

INTESEsT IN CON MON.

INTEsEsT In COMMON.
In every transaction By which
labor, commodities or money
change ownership, each party to
The transaction is buyer and
seller. fla man sells his goods
for money, he buys money with
his goods. If man sells his
money for goods, he buys goods
with his money. In the field Of
labor the employee sells his labor
for money, and he buys money
with labor, the employer sells his
money for labor, and buys labor
with his money. Every party to
any such transaction takes part in
the transaction because he finds it
to his advantage to do 90. All
such transactions in q tree country
are voluntary and considered ad-,
vantageous to all parties. It
follows then the greater The
opportunity for such transactions
the greater the probability Of
profit and success to all parties
inter ested. In that much buyer
and seller of commodities and the
employer and employee have 4 conf.
mon interest in continuing and
increasing all such transactions.
It is true that buyers interests
are always to get tho most posi-
BILE for the least they can, and the
sellers interest to giveas little as
possible for as mnch as he can
get. Their interests are to- that
extent opposite in each individual
transaction, but they are harmoni-.
GUS and common in having con-
ditions that encourage and provide
for such transactions.
Because the buyer and seller, Or
employer and employee, each
naturally strive to gain as much
advantage as possible, is it reason
able to suppose that if a question.
came up as to whether or not
serious difficulties should be Great
ed that would hinder or prevent
those transactions, that the buyer
and seller, employ er and employe
would, any of them, encourage or
support these difficultiese
Because the employer would
like to have more labor for the
money he pays, would he want
conditions under which he could
not employ labor! :,
Because the employe would like
more wages, would he Z want COPS opr
ditions under which his employer
could pay no wages, just because
such conditions were unsatisfac-
tory to the employer?
Any reasonable man can see
that all parties to business and
employment have common inter-
ests in maintaining or creating
conditions that will facilitate and
encourage trade and employment.
The man, then, who will raise :
cry of class against class, and
argue that because q public policy
will lnjure the employer it will
help the employe, is a demagogue
and most dangerous adviser Of
the employe.
Bringing those principles to
application in the present cam,
paign, the Office seeker who tells
the workingman that the fact that
the employers fear the effect Of
free silver, is a reason for the
employed to favor it, is the worst
enemy the workingman has. To
gain votes for himself he would
excite prejudice in the hearts Of
the men who have every interest
in common with their employers
IN securing conditions that will
make the greatest demand for
labor and the products Of labor.
