WHAT OPEN MILLS HAVE DONE

1t was one of the trenchant sayings
OF President Mckinley in the campaign
of four years ago that "open mills, not
open mints," was what the country
most needed. The mills were opened
and the effect of the Republican policy
in this respect is well shown by the re-
plies received to inquiries sent out by
the Republican national committee to
members of the Association of Manu-
facturers asking them to furnish the
number Of men whom they had en-
ployed i'm each year from 1890 to 1899
inclusive, as well as the total amount
of wages which they had paid during
the same years.
There were 200 replies. They showed
a steady increase i'm the number hands
employed in the 200 factories until the
year 1898. There was an immediate
drop Of 10000 men in 1894, when they
employed 90,4S3 men. But in 1897
they employed 10000; in 1898, l3l ,42s
men, and last year 174,645 men. In
short, the number of wage-earners EN-.
ployed by these same 200 factories in.
creased from 80, 4S3 men in 1894 up to
l74,645 last year-almost doubled.
But the contrast Is even more strik
ing when applied to the amount OF
wages paid, and the following table
shows the returns received from the
900 manufacturers:

ADVERTISING RATES;
The 0fICiaI Paper OF San Juan County
THURSDAY, AUGUST %, 1909.
LOOKING INTO THE FUTURE

Mr.. Edward Atkinson has prepared
curious and interesting paper for the
Manufacturers Record, forecasting the
development of the iron industry ten
years hence. Much weight will be
given his figures from the fact that ten
years ago he published similar paper
showing the probable worlds COM
sumption of iron in 1900. and the re-
suits have demonstrated the correct
ness OF his predictions with singular
accuracy. The present consumption of
iron IN this country this year is about
400 pounds per capita, and last year it
was about 375 pounds. During the
next ten years, he holds that, with an
average increase in population exceed
ing 1000, 900 a year, at 400 pounds per
head, there willabe an increased con-
sumption of 100000 net tons a year.
He adds:
"If the law of accelerating consump-
ton continues i'm the future as 1t has in
the past, coupled with heavy and in
creasing exports, it is doubtful if an
average increase Of l,OO0,O tons per
annum i'm this country for the next ten
years will suffice to supply the de-
mand."
MIR. Atkinson bases his estimates Oh
a largely increasing demand, OIL the
construction of about 100000 miles of
railways during the next fifteen years,
the construction. of buildings, the rapid
extension of electric railways and the
increased use of iron in all arts which
follow the railway, and in ship build
ing. Much Of the increase in railway
construction he believes will be in the
south and southwest. If the logic OF
events, he AYERS, Justified the predic.
ton made in 1890 of an increase in the
worlds demand for iron from "a, 900, 900
to 10000, 900 tons by 1900, will not the
demand in 1910 require a supply of at
least So, 100000 tons, probably 100000.
OOO?"
This will be, according to his figures
about 500 pounds per capita, or an in.
crease of 100 pounds. To supply this
augmented demand, new mines will
have to be opened, and Russia, Great
Britain and Germany will be com.
PEELED to depend ON the United States
for at least so per cent thereof. Should
Mr.. Atkinson's carefully prepared fig.
ures prove reliable there is every like
lihood that the boom in the iron in.
dustry will be lasting and profitable
one.

ACCORDING to the statement of Pen.
sion Commissioner Evans, there are
925, 900 men yet alive whose names
were borne upon the rolls of the Union
army from 1861 to 1865. The fact that
nearly million of the boys are yet in
the land of the living thirty-five years
after the close of the struggle, is suffi-
Gent to impress the thoughtful indi-
vidual with the magnitude of the war
that was waged for the preservation of
the government, even though he had
never read line or heard word with
reference thereto. OF these 925. 900 old
soldiers and sailors who are still with
us, 742, ACT were on the pension list one
year ago, and it is probable that the
names of the remaining 1S3,5OO will
find their way to the roll of honor
within the next few years. Statistics
in the office of the pension commits
sloner show that during the last year
"a, 1877 pensioners have died; adding a
prOpOrtionate number of those who are
not on the lists, about 80, 900 Of the old

coming election makes 1t the para
mount issue of the campaign. And
yet confessAdly this very platform was
forced upon thu. Democratic party with
out the consent. of majority OF the
political divisions that have the right
to vote. And probably, too, it was
forced upon the convention without
the willing consent of a majority of the
delegates present, though for this we
must trust to opinion. However, it is
a matter Of record and not of opinion
as to where a majority of the states
stood on l6 to l. OF the forty-five
states of the Union which nave the
right to vote for president, and which
were represented in the committee of
resolutions, twenty-One voted for Is to
and twenty-four voted against it.
All that saved the plank for the plat
form was the vote Of the territories,
which do not vote for president. If the
territory of Hawaii had voted with the
majority of states, the l6 to declara.
ton would have foundered. We may
imagine the uncomfortable nature of
Mr.. Bryan's thoughts as he cOntem-
plates the fact that his dictatorship was
saved by the vote of a territory just
created through the Republican policy
of "imperiallsm" and expansion. But,
for that matter, the dogma of l6 to
would have cut a pitiable fiure all
around except for the policy of expan-
sion. Of the twenty-One votes received
fifteen came from states over which the
Union has expanded.-Kansas City

The amount of wages paid by these
same 200 manufacturers increased
steadily from 1890 to 1892, then there
was a drop in 1898 and another drop in
1894. During the next two years wages
picked up, but it was not until 1897
that these same manufacturers were
paying out as much money in wages
as they had paid in 1892.
Between 1894 and 1899, the 200 man.
ufac.urers had increased their pay rolls
by upwards of $SS 900, 900. In fact, the
amount of wages which they distriL-
nted last year was almost double what
they paid out in 1894. Apply this to
the whole country and try to realize
what benefit "opening the mills" has
been to American wage-earners aud to
those who feed and clothe them.

INCREASE i'm shipbuilding on Puge

INCREASE in shipbuilding on Puget
Sound is one of the marked features of
our present industrial development.
Several new shipyards have been estab-
lIshed during the past year and all
have been kept busy turning out
steamers and sailing craft, mostly to
care for the large expansion in coasting
trade. Once our iron deposits are de-
veloped, in pursuance of plans now
formulating, Washington will have an
important part to play in the restora-
ton of the American merchant marine

THE FEELING IN GERMANY.

BERLIN, February 18.-The South
African war news and occurrences in
the British parliament are greedily
read here and commented upon. A
number Of the leading German papers
to-day still affect to believe the relief
of Kimberley is only a ruse by which
the Beers have led the British into a
trap. as at Spion Kop. Generally speak
ing, though, the German newspaper
comment now lacks the bitterness OF
the one towards the British which
was noticeable until recently. A num-
Der of papers, especially the Agrarian
and Pan-German, insist the war must
continue until Great Britain's complete
military collapse is laid bare before
the world, thus preventing Great Brit
ain for a century to come from inter-
fering in South Africa and leaving the
white population of low German stock
lords there. At the foreign Office these
day dreams are ridiculed. The foreign
Office, however, does not doubt the re-
lief of Kimberley and considers it a
great moral success for Great Britain.

select a time and place for holding the

ii believe" said Mr.. Clark, that the
democratic National convention will
be the largest gathering ever seen at
a Democratic National convention. Re-
ports coming to the national head
quarters from nearly every State in
the union, announce large delegations
and as the convention will be held in
the west, the far west and south will
be more largely represented than ever
before"
Where, in your opinion. will the

"The contest is between Kansas City
and Milwaukee, and from present In

it."
What date do you think will be Sc
lected for holding the convention?"
Il am confident the convention will
be held early. Of course I only know
the feeling among the members Of the

the convention should be held at an

THE BoERs SANG M

ARUNDEL, Saturday, February H.
(Received by Dispatch Rider.).Capt.
Longhurst, of the British medical
corps, spent a night at Hobkirk's farm,
attending the wounded Australians.
He said that the enemy were remark
ably kind to the wounded, provided
them with mattresses and gave them
all the eggs they had.
The Boer commander and Captain
Longhurst found that they had mutual
friends in London, and were soon on
the best of terms. Noticing that the
bandoliers of the enemy were filled
with soft-nosed bullets, one of our
men said: "You ought not to bring
such things to fire at u.s."
The Beers replied: 1--WE must have
whatever we a get"
This particular Boer contingent had
come from the northern district of
the T%ransvaal, where the Beers are
used to hunting big game along the
Limpopo. The men had ordered their
ammunition for that purpose. One
Briton whose thigh had been shatter-
ed, replied to this explanation: "Well,
/ wish you had been kind enough to
shoot me lower down."
After the retirement of the British
forces the Beers held a prayer meeting
and thanked heaven for their sue
cesses. Then they separated in small
parties and moved to their various
outposts, chanting hymns as they
went.
Capt. Longhurst says that he was
much impressed by their ~considerate
treatment of the British wounded.

THE KENTUCKY SITUATION.
Legislature to Meet at E~r1nk-
tort This Morning
For the First Time Since the Assas-
sination of GoebeI-TwO Sets of
state Officers Will be Present.

FRANKFORT, KY, February 49,
Many Of the Democratic legislators re-
turned here tonight, and numerous
conferences were in progress during
the evening relating to the political
programme for tomorrow, when the
Democratic and Republican branches
of the Legislature will meet together
for the first time since the assassina-
ton of Goebel. The question of wheth-
er Lieut.. Governor Marshall (Republi-
CAM or President Pro Tenn. Carter
(Democrat) will preside in the Senate
tomorrow, is as wide open tonight
as ever. The Democratic leaders say
Senator Carter will preside. Lieut..
Governor Marshall is not here to-
night, but before leaving the city last
night he stated positively that he
would return Monday and insist upon
his right to preside. The Republican
leaders assert positively tonight that
he will preside. Neither side goes far
Their than these bare statements.
Governor Taylor went to church to-
day without a military escort and
spent the remainder Of the day at the
mansion with his family.
Governor Beckham returned to the
city tonight with the Democratic leg
islators and will have his %headquar-
tiers at the Capitol Hotel. Messrs. JUS
tus and Arthur Goebel, brothers of the
late Democratic governor, also return
ed, and will remain here until the body
of their dead brother is finally buried.
The body still lies in the little chapel
in the cemetery, the relatives having
been slow to determine the exact spot
of burial.
The question Of reopening the on
test over the go~vernorship by present
ing resolutions in both houses ratify-
ing the action taken by the Democratic
legislators on two occasions declaring
G0ebel governor, was favoraoIy dis
cussed by some of the Democratic
members tonight. They say this
would be a concession that the former
proceedings were Illegal. but would
| probably put an end to the contro-
versy sooner The matter has not been
decided on officially. but a majority
OF the members who are outspoken on
the matter express themselves as OPP
posed to reopening the matter in any
form. They viii abide by the decision

PENNSYLVANIA ENGINEERS

VIII Demand an Increase OF Ten
Per Cent. in Wages
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, February Is
A special to the North American from
Altoona, Pa, says: Two hundred
delegates from all parts OF the Penn
sylvania railroad system between St
Louis and New York, representing the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
met in secret convention here to-day
to formulate a demand for an in.
crease in wages.
Chief p. NJ. Arthur. of the Brother
hood, presided wei the session. Re-
ports of conditions from each division
on the system were made. The ardu-
Gus work required on the big modern
locomotive was brought forth and gem
eral complaint made against the system
of non-payment for unavoidable delays
necessitating extra work. A general
increase of 10 per cen was finally
recommended to be acted upon by the
subordinate lodges.
In an Interview, Chief Arthur denied
that there is friction between the en-
gineers and the company at present.
The engineers merely think they de-
serve an increase in wages with the
other divisions of labor. To-day's con-
ference was merely advisory. The
minor lodges will act on its recon-
mendations.
