INDUSTRIAL CHANGES IN GREAT BRITAIN.

Some instructive and suggestive facts con-
corning work and wages IN the greatest indus
trial nation In the world are given In the fourth
annual report OF the Labor Department OF the
British Board OF Trade. The report deals with
the work OF about 100000 individuals during
the year 1896. and pays especial attention TO the
rise and fall OF wages and lengthening and
shortening Of hours Of labor.
The general tendency OF wages was upward.
No less than 3s2,S2 persons had their wages
increased while 167357 had theirs decreased.
There were temporary changes up or down. In
the wages Of 5s.072 more. The net result Of all
changes was an average rise Of 81 cents a week
all around among those affected or course. tn
rate Of increase varied In the building trades
1t was so cents week; In the metal. engineer
ing and shipbuildIng trades, p cents, and
among State and municipal employees, 30 cents.
This rise Of wages Just about balanced the fall
In 1885, and brought them back to where they
were in 1894. But there was n heavy fall in
1894, and only slight rise in 1898. so that on
the whole wages were lower In 1896 than they
were in 1902.
Turning to hours OF labor, Il Is observed that
they were changed much more In 1896 than in
any preceding year. The changes affected no
less than 1OS.271 individuals. Owing to read
justment of rules in the London building trades
in which there the greatest rise OF
wages-more had their hours heightened than
shortened. But the frightening was slight and
the shortening considerable, so that the net re
suit was reduction of hours amounting in the
aggregate 10 1858 week, or about three.
quarters Of an hour a week each. on the aver
age, among those affected.
On the whole, then, the report indicates little
change in the condition of individual working
men. There were changes in only about 6O7 900
cases out Of 100000. Such changes as there
were, however, were in the direction OF higher
wages and shorter hours Of labor-just the re-
suits so-called labor reformers profess to have
in view. What is still more clearly indicated
Is that wages are subject to the general laws
Of trade. They rise and fall in accordance with
the fluctuations Of trade. When business Is
good they rise; when II is bad they fall From
that law there appears to be no escape. IL
there is. the industrialists Of Great Britain have
rot yet discovered the means Of effectlng 1t.

PENNSYLVANIA'S NEW CAPITOL.

The litigation now In progress I'm Pennsyi-
vana to restrain the recently created State
Capitol Commission from advertising for or
accepting fresh designs in lieu OF those re-
jected by II at its stormy sitting Of September
q marks a new ard interesting phase Of the cur
rent struggle TO raise American standards Of
public architecture by freeing public building
enterprises from the tainted and hampering
II fluences OF politics. 1t was. perhaps. to be
expected that a commission like that erected in
Pennsylvania, governed by purely political in
terests and traditions. should show no serious
hesitation to set aside an award made under
conditions which. If they could impose no bind
ing force in law had at least the sanctions OF
equity Of the common impulse to fair and hon.
cradle dealing. But that professional and pub
lie opinion should not, as In many previous in
stances, have contented itself with an inef-
fectual protest against the Commissions fail
ure to comply with It's own preannourced pro-
gramme and, instead, should have begun n
battle In the courts to compel an adherence to
the original terms Of the contemplated competi-
ton, is as significant as ii is surprising For
the popular response which has greeted the
challenge thrown by the competing architects
at the feet Of the Capitol Commission has dis.
closed a genuine interest In the attempted dl.
vorce Of architecture and politics, which ar
cues most hopefully for the elevation and purl.
fcaton of our present public building stand.

TO.DlY'S ELECTION ~ NEW-JERSE!


Ncw-Jerscy Is voting to-day on the question
Of adopting three amendments to the State Con
stitution. These amendments are. in BRIEF ~
follows:
Prohibiting the legaization Of raoctrack
gambling. pool-sclling. etc.
Enjoining the Governor from appointing
during the legislative recess persons VINO had
previously been nominated but not confirmed
by the Senate.
Permitting women to vote at dstrict-schooi
meetings.
The anti gambling amendment is the one
around which most Of the interest centres. IL
carried st tO-d1ys election 1t precludcs, 1or
decade at least the possibility or reopehihs
Of the racetracks in New-Jersey, ms the Coh-
stitution cannot be changed oftencr IMAM once
In five years, and amendments mrst pass TWO
successive Legislatures before being suDmi''eh

New-Jersey's attitude toward the gamblers
and II Is safe to assert that threefourths OF the
people are friendly TO the amendment now De-
fore them. 1t is not so certain, however, 'ha'
even so per cent of them will take the trouble
TO vote to-day, and therein lies the danger ana
uncertainty There Is no organized movement
behind the amendments: there Is compact
body working against them Systematically ana
intelligently. and they have the cooperation or
experienced politicians and other scifshly in
terested individuals and organizations. The
Republican State Committee has urged all COOL
citizens to vote solidly for the amendments, but
the Democratic leaders. although committed TO
the antgambng amendment by their State
Convention of 1885, are either on the fence or
are openly among the opposition.
At the last general election in New-Jersey the
total vote cast was 81 900 There has been no
election on Constitutional amendments In New
Jersey since 1890, and Mt that time only Go00O
votes were cast. If the vote to-day is proper
tionately light all the amendments are likely
to be defeated. but II the total vote approx
mates 100000 it Ia probable that the amend
ments will be passed by substantial mnjoritles.

TIE JUDICIAL CANDIDATES.

Whatever the result of the city conventions
in the Greater NewYork this week, the bench
seems certain to profit by the elections and
appointments OF this autumn. This viii apply
in some degree to the Court Of Appeals as well
to the Supreme Court. 1t Is true that the
retirement Of Chief Judge Andrews Of the Court
Of Appeals must in any event. be felt as a seri-
Gus loss But the nominations to his place are
both good. Judge Parker, despite his action in
voting for Bryan last year. must be regarded
as an excellent judge from the record he has
made in the Supreme Court. But the RepuD-
leans have done even better in the selection OF
Judge Wallace. who now ranks as one or the
best jurS1s on the Federal bench AS Judge
Wallace is almost certain Of election, Judge An
drews may well feel satisfaction in the reflec-
ton that lis place is to be so well filled.
But good citizens have cause for feelings Of
even greater satisfaction in the prospect regard
ing the Supreme Court. There Is every reason
to believe that the bar received the announce
ment of Governor Blacks appointment Of Will
lam y. Cohen to the Supreme Court IN the
place Of the late Judge Sedgwick with more
universal approval than has been accorded 10
any other judicial appointment in recent years.
His fitness Is unquestioned, and he has great
personal popularity. The probabilities also
point to n satisfactory outcome OF the approach
ing local judicial conventions The action Of
the Republicans promises to be wiser than it
was last year. when they disregarded the just
claims of Presiding Justice Brown to renomina-
ton in the Second Department. Judge Bartlett
thoroughly deserves the denomination which he
seems likely to receive from both parties in that
district.
But chief cause for congratulation Is found
in the determination OF the Republican leaders
on this side Of the East River to renOminate
Presiding Justice Van Brunt Of the Appellate
Division of the Supreme Court. In such case
Tammany would scarcely venture to refuse TO
take the same action, and he would be re-elect
ed as he should be, without opposition.
similar case has not arisen in many years where
there was the same obligation upon all parties
to continue in Office Judge OF the same de-
gree Of usefulness as Judge Van Brunt. and
whose place it would be so difficult TO fill Ex-
Judge Allison Is said to have been determined
upon as the other judicial nominee OF the Re-
publicans. 1t is an excellent choice. II, as Is
reported probable, Tammany should nominate
ex-Police Justice Fetner against him, there
ought to be no difficulty In electing Judge Al
lison by large majority. The appearance Of
Judge Feitner as a candidate Is the only IN
fortunate aspect of the judicial situation. 1t
seems almost incredible that Tammany should
in the present emergency nominate so weak a
candidate But If the result shall be the cleo
ton Of Judge Allison. one good turn may be
credited to Tammany.

VICTORY BETTER THAN COMPROMISE.

The Republican organization Is planning to
nominate General Tracy without any notion
that as a straight party candidate he can be
elected. but with the idea that his name will be
effective to force Seth Low out of the field and
omen the way to union Of the anti-Tammany
forces on General Tracy himself, or some COM
promise candidate like lr. Bliss. Suppose for
moment what does not seem at all probable,
that this scheme will work. Suppose that the
Citizens Union could be prevailed upon to with
draw Mr. Low and leave this organization can
didate. in sole possession of the field What
would be the result on Election Day! In all
probability victory for Tammany Hall. TAM
many would have just about as good chance
to win against straight Republican, or even
n compromise Republican ticket. with MT. Low
out of the race, as against straight RepuD-
lican and Mr.. Low together. Organization lead
ers may not find this prospect pleasant. They
may rail al the unreasonabeness of independent
voters, but their business Is to face the pre1u-
dices and even follies Of voters as they exist.
and so use their leadership as to win results.
OF the $4,000 voters who have expressed
desire for the election of Mr.. Low perhaps
half are Democrats and Mugwumps. At any
rate the support of large number OF Demo
Gratis and Mugwumps is necessary for the sue
cess OF any ant-Tammany ticket SEN Low
can secure that support. If he can also secure
the votes Influenced by the Republican organ
ization he Is reasonably sure OF an election.
The question which the man who seeks to force
hiny-out must consider is what chance OF cleo
ton the substitute candidate will have. And
when he considers that fairly. he cannot avoid
he conclusion that n large number or these
Democrats and Mugwumps cannot be Induced
TO help him elect any other person than Seth
Low. They are people who have long been
critics Of the Republican party. and DO net
hesitate to say that they have little choice be-
tween Mr.. Croker and Mr.. Plat, and II driven
into q corne-, with no chance to avoid either.
they would prefer to vote for their own party
rather than for the Republicans. So any other
nuti-Tammany candidate than Mr.. Low has the
prospect Of seeing this body OF voters whose
support Is necessary for election staying at
home or scattering its strength on different
Democratic tickets that may chance TO be In
the field. This may be most reprehensible per-
venity on the part OF these voters. but 1t has to
be reckoned with for all that. 1t will not be
cured by railing at them 1t can only be cured
By giving them such ticket that they will put
