The statistics furnished bJ the
enemies Of constitutional oninage have
long been suspicious, but 1t was left 10
q writer in The New Time, the maya
zine edited by Mr.. Flower, late editor
of the Arena, TO expose their DIS
honesty. They have been trying 10
prove that the wages of working men
have been steadily increasing, and Car
roll ID. Wright, the present head OF the
bureau of statistics has used the census
TO prove it. Mr.. Bliss IN The New
Times exposes the trick. They counted
in as wages OF operatives the salaries of
all clerks and officers of the companies
thst gave in figures. Some of the
officers draw larger salaries than the
president of the United States. Adding
in y small number of men with very
large salaries made the total sum paid
for sswages" very large and that was
divided by the number of persons en-
ployed. This was no fair test OF what
The hands IN a given factory or mill
were getting. And as the men with
large salaries were not included in the
returns Of the previous census 1t made
the figures seem TO prove that The rate
Of wages was increasing. These figures
have been taken by the great London
authority on statistics, Mullhall, and
worked Into his tables, thus carrying
the falsehood tar and wide over the
world. A u that can only be
defended by falsehood is sufficiently
condemned.
There Is a lesson in this. Very many
people now seem to think that If
everything could be just ''turned over
10 the government" there would be an
end of all trouble. Years ago l pro-
tested against the creation of a cabinet
officer to take charge of the private
business of farming; and there never
was o more persistent enemy of the
farmers than the last secretary OF agri-
culture, Morton, a rich dllletanti, who
liked TO live in the country. Jefferson's
idea of government wears mighty WE'LL
he thought that II ought TO be kept to
its legitimate functions and that indi-
yiduals ought to attend to their private
AFFAIRS themselves. II statistics were
solely from private companies they
could not afford to make false ones,
for they would never sell q second lot
OF their books. GEO. WILSON.

OUR PRODUCE MARKET.
Lexington Merchants Pay Il Higher
Price Than They DO In Kansas
City.

Lexington gives 10 the farmers II better
market for country produce than any
other city Of it's size in the state. More
country produce is bought here for home
consumption than is bought Rt any city
of its size in the state, aud a better price
is given either in cash or trade. One
reason the prices are higher here is
because the supply from the country is
less than the demand the merchants have
for the produce.
Thursday and Friday OF last week it
was impossible to secure either chickens
or eggs 10 Lexington, and our merchants
had In addition to this supply from the
country, ordered their produce from the
Kansas City merchants. Notwithstand-
ing The immense supply which the mer-
chants had on hand for the Thanksgiving
trade, the supply was exhausted.
There are more thar a dozen coal mines
here and they NIL do a good business
Hundreds of men find work Ia these
mines and the money they receive for
their labor is spent with our merchants
for supplies for themselves and families.
These miners, when they have work,
which Is most of the year, keep good
/ IROlGS, ana inc mount VI PRIV bOau
to them In any one month runs mp into
many thousands of dollars. One OF these
coal companies alone pays out to Its
miners on an average of $4,000 a month.
When you consider that there are more
than n dozen mines, Inc that each one is
working n larger force OF men than ever
before, you can form some estlma of the
amount OF money which comes to the
Lexington trade from that source.
Lexington has i've colleges which, at a
conservative estimate, turn 100000 into
the town every year.
One can readily see that the amount of
produce used here must be greater than
at most towns, as In addition to the trade
which other towns have, we have these
colleges and mines.
The merchants OF Lexington having a
larger market for their goods, are able to
pay q higher price In buying, as is evil
denced by the fact that they often send
men to other towns and buy UP all the
chickens, eggs and butter.
The farmer who brings his products
here not only gets a high price for Thorn
but he gets extra value for his money 10
buying. The Lexington merchants carry
large stocks of goods, q buying often
and In large quantities, thus get their
goods at low figures. The competition here
lie sharp, and they are forced to mark their
Roods down to close figures in order to
secure the patronage. The farmer thus
gets good prices for his products and
selects the goods he needs from large and
fresh stocks aud gets them at low
figures. Country produce brings a higher
price here Than It does In Kansas City,
which Is proven by the fact that a consid-
cradle amount OF these goods sold here
are shipped from the Kansas City mar
kets. No farmer can afford to sell bis
goods OF this kind to the shipper when he
can make the shippers profit by bringing
Them here.

few years ago. The last few years they
have lived at Fayette, Mo-, with their

spent at the home of her daughter, who
with loving care and affection gave her
every attt ntiou, were among the happiest
of her life. She had passed the meridian
of life and was fast approaching tie
haven where a welcome and crown
awaited her, and the knowledge of a liie
spent in good deeds and purity gave her
peace n rest in her declining years.
She wac i'll only a short time before her
death. and when the end came 1t came
peacefully and she met it without fear. ,
Mrs. Liebliok was born in Liverpool,
England, in 1886, aud moved to this coun-
try In 1866. She was a sister of the late
Messrs. NJ. G. and Albert Keller, former
