Of the bill lies in the point whether
the tax is specific or not, and Oren's
idea To test that point was tn have the
governor demand Of the auditor-gen-
eral that he transfer the last years tax
received from the telephone and tele-
graph companies from the school fund
to the general fund. Those companies
have been taxed for years under a law
exactly similar To the system the At
kinson bill proposes Ia extend over
railroads and express companies, AMI
il follows that il the supreme court de
cides that the money may be transferred
from the school fund. which is a con-
stitutionol fund raised by specific taxes
only, and into which all specific taxes
must 90. then the taxes now raised on
telephone and telegraph companies are
not specific and therefore the law is [ OF
constitutional and the Atkinson bill is
also not constitutional.

The American Steel and Wire
Company have decided to advance
the wages Of It's $4,000 employees

vance to employees earning Sl.5O ii
day was announced as 10 per cent.
to employees earning from Sl.55 to
-, = per cent, and to employees
earning from 81 .05 to 81 80 per day
. per cent. This is an increase of
pay to labor by this one company
Of nearly 81 600, 900 per anum, or
u per cent. on the preferred stock
Of the company, which reprc,' hts
money invested
The company that makes this ad
vance in wages controls the barbed
wire. rod and nail business of tie
country. and is spoken of as a trust
1t will probably strike the working
men that if trusts are aggregations
of all the evils Of industrial life
little attention would be paid to
labor, and that trust would net
voluntarily advance wages.
However, no demand was made
on the American Steel and Wire
Company by It's employees. The
company adyancedwages simply be-
cause of the prosperous times.
Business has improved under the
Dingley law and under the prospect
for increased trade in the future
under the expansion policy. Last
year there was an increased demand
from Europe and Asia for wire
goods and nails. Our exports of
cut. wire and other nails amounted
10 34.222 600 pounds i'll 1896, as
against 53.S43,ooo pounds in 1897,
and u.G5Gooo in 1898. I'm De-

amounted to 1o,226,ooo pounds.
In December. 1898. notwithstand-
ing the disturbances incident to
war. our exports of wire were one
halt larger, or l5,GSo.ooo pounds,
Our exports of wire in 1896 amount
ed to S5,9l6,ooo pounds, in 1897 to
118.SS7,ooo, and in 1898 to g.
3oG,ooo. This ratio of increase
extended to all lighter manufac-
lures of iron and steel, laying the
basis for the benefits which now
are ACQUIRING to the American
laborer.
