Deserves no Credit.

The claim is being made that the
price of labor is being increased ant
this is given in proof of the general
prosperity that is said to abound
There are few instances where wages
have been increased ten per cent, but
at whose expense ? In the very con
Germs where these increases have beeI
made, the price of the goods they man
ufacture has been increased from 2C
to so per cent. If the manufacturers
increase their profits SO per cent. they
can very well afford to advance wages
ten per cent. But has this increase
been of any real benefit to labor gen.
orally? In almost every instance
where wages have been increased, the
number of laboring men has been de
creased. A trust is formed which in
creases wages 10 per cent, and at the
same time advances prices so per cent.
and reduces the number of its EN-.
ployees 25 per cent. Do the laboring
men or the trust derive the greatest
benefits from the changed conditions
While the price of tin plate has beer
advanced so per cent. wages have not
been advanced cent. The shops are
now closed and the men are out on q
strike for better wages. Within the
last year the trust has advanced the
price of barbed wire 20 cent, and has
increased the price of wages 10 per
cent. and has lost nothing flom the
change. Neither does it deserve credit
for it. it.-Charleston CIV. Va.) Gazette

TACT that the Southern Pacific IS put

point, aud says the plant is to be used
TO treat the ties that will be used on
this division in the future. As a mat
ter OF fact it will be many years be-
lore any new ties are needed on this
division. The company has just COM
pleted the job Of putting down new
ties from ri Paso to Yuma, and each
tie is supplied with Servlss tie plates.
In this country the ties never rot out,
the redwood practically lasts forever,
out they are soon cut in two by the
rails. The tic plate gives the rail a
much larger bearing surface, and so
the tie Is not so easily cut. IL is said
that the plate makes the tic last about
three times as long. The creosoting
works at Deming are to be used prin-
cipally for preparing bridge timbers,
FOR which there is a constant demand
ON this division during the rainy sea-
son. The company wanted to build
the works at Lordsburg, aud would
have done so, but for one reason.
When the works ara running there is
a constant demand for the use of a
switch engine. Owing to the amount
Of traffic at this point the switch en-
CINE here has but little spare time,
while at Demiug it is busy but a frac.
ton OF the time. II the works had
been built at Lordsburg the company
would have had to put on another
switch engine here, while building
them at Deming saved this expense,
and at the same time enabled the
company to get a full days werk out OF
the engine and crew it has to keeE
there. 1t was only the matter oil
economy IN this particular that caused
