Farmers Are Puzzled.

COLFAx, Mimi, June 4, 1900.
Mr.. ED1ToR:-There are a good many things
we farmers read in our county papers that
puzzle us. -
r One thing that IS always held forth is the
overwhelming prosperity that has set in, and
about how big fools they are who cannot al
ways see it in their light. OF course we would
not deny there is prosperity for some classes,
but we are unable to find that the farmers have
got any big share Of it. We leave arguments
to the politicians, but the following figures
show the facts: .
Wheat is lower than 1898, but about the same
as in 1894, the lowest since the fall and winter
of 1868-69 and 1880. Cattle and butter, some
80 to IS per cent. higher. Hogs about the
same: higher, just now, whea few have any to
SELL Should we compare the price of wheat
two or three years ago and the price last win
ter-we could claim that wheat has dropped 40
to 80 per cent Horses may be q little higher,
Is to 40 per cent. - - -. j., e =
i Now, take what farmers have to purchase:
Farm labor, 80 to 40 per cent. hgher; barb
wire, l65. per cent. higher; nails, l25 per cent
higher; lumber, 40 to so per cent. higher; lath,
ITO per cent. higher; and to mention shoes,
clothing, oil, wagons, machinery and the list
down raised from 10 to 40 per cent, also the
" ar tax on deeds, mortgages and other instru-
ments would take too much time and space.
Take these facts in consideration, you prosper
ity editors, and maybe you won't sit down so
hard on us farmers and our ignorance. But of
course we will be nccused of overproduction.
Will hear of if next fall maybe, and be told to
raise potatoes, . e. e. .75zx 4.
Now another puzzle: AS far as we know, the

Near the town of Williams. Arizona.
or the Santa Fe road, is a hill that is
remarkable. 1t looks like a hundred
other hills, but 1t is quite diff erent
from them. There is an opening about
two and II half fee in diameter which
leads into a cavern. of what size no one
knows. The YER is filed with ice,
at least a solid bed of 1t appears close
below the opening. The people of Viii
liams sometimes go out there and.
crawling through the hole, break off
pieces of the Ice for use. The Ice is
there summer and winter. No more is
known of its source than of the size
of the mass. Some think thai its pres
ence is due to elements in the ground
that affect the water.

Hardly a party. large or small. trad

New Mexico without being attacked.
Many men were killed and large num-
bers of horses, mules, and cattle driv-

parative safety was secured by sta
tioning the troops at various points.
OF the insurgent prisoners, fifteen or
twenty were executed by sentence of
court-martial. The othrrs were turned
over to the civil authorities.
The events resulting from the In
surrection did not escape the atten-
tion of Congress. That body on July
10th. 1S4S, passed a resolution calling
upon the President for information In
regard to the existence OF civil gov
eminent in New Mexico and C%alifor-
mia, their form and character, by whom

how they were maintained and sup
ported; also whether any persons had
been tried and condemned for 'trea-
son against the United States'' il New

said resolution in a message dated

the character OF military government.

government may exercise the fullest
rights of sovereignty" thereby az

The records show that a similar
course of action was followed in sup

in 1s4S. and re-establishing the SOW
ereignty of the United States.

Years without Speaking to Him.


A man of the name of George Gould
lives at New Rochelle, New York,
whose wife has lived in the same house
and sat at the same table with him
without speaking TO him for more than
twenty years. They were married in
1868 and have four children who are
grown n three of them are married.
About twenty years ago husband and
wife quarreled and the latter. becom-
ing angry mt one of his remarks de-
clared that she would never speak to
him again until he a~pologized. He is
too stubborn to apologize n she has
become accustomed to silence. They

HOW WAGES INCREASED.
Factory Pay Rolls Have Doubled in Five
Years.

Years.
Akron. ON the campaign of 1896.
Mr.. Mckinley made n remark which
vent to the hearts of the people from
one end of the country to the other. 1t
was, open the Mills" said General
Charles Dick. secretary of the Repub-
lican National Committee.
Those three words met with a re-
sponsive chord from those ems OF
thousands who had been idle during
the last Democratic administration.
and the empty dinner pail brigade
went to the polls and voted for a full
| dinner pail, and for the opening of the
mills.
"In order to gain some idea of the
effect of restoring the home market
to our own people, the Republican Ma
tional committee sent out blanks to
members of the National Association
of Manufacturers, asking them to
kindly furnish us with the lumber or
| men whom they employed in each
year from 1890 to 1899 inclusive. as
well as with the total amount of
wages which they had paid during the
same years.
I'VE have received 200 replies. These
show that there was a steady increase
in the number of hands employed in
the 200 factories until the year 1893.
! after which there was an immediate
drop of TO- 900 men l n 1894. But under
President. McKinley's administration
the increase in the number OF men
employed by these same factories has
been startling. In 1894 they employed
90.483, in 1897 they employed 100 800;
in 1898 they employed 1871 .42s men, and
last year they employed 174.645 men.
In short. the number of wage earners
employed by those same 200 factories
has increased from 90.483 men in 1894
up to ia .645 last year. almost doubled
in TACT.
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
CANA onO ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.

UNIVERSITY OF NorRE DAME.

NOtre Dame, Ind.
We call the attention OF our readers
to the advertisement OF Notre Dame
University, one of the great educa-
tional Institutions of the West. which
appears in another column of this
paper. Those of our readers who may
have occasion to look up a college for
their sons during the coming year
would do well to correspond with the
president. who will send them a cata-
logue free of charge, as well as all
particulars regarding terms, courses
Of studies. etc.
There Is a thorough preparatory
school in connection with the univer-
sity, in which students of all grades
will ave every opportunity of prepar-
ing themselves for higher studies. The
Commercial Course. intended for
young men preparing for business,
nay be finished in one or two years
according to the ability OF the student.
st. Edwards Hall. for boys under
thirteen. is an unique department of
the institution. The higher courses
are thorough in every respect, and I
dents will find every opportunity of
perfecting themselves in any line OF
work they may choose to select. Thor
oughness in class work. exactness in
the care of students, and devotion to
the best interests of all. are the distin-
gushing characteristics OF Notre
Dame University.

Wages Paid.

The amount of wages paid by these
same 200 manufacturers increased
steadily from 1890 to 1892. then there
was a drop in 1893 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. The
increase Of their pay rolls in 1898 and
1899 is as gratifying to me, as 1t must
be to the men who are now busy at
good wages.
Between 1894 and 1899 the 200
manufacturers of the National Asso-
citation. who reported to us. had in
creased their payrolls by upwards OF
S3S, 000. 900. in fact the amount of
wages which they distributed last year
was almost double what they paid out
in 1894.
IF this ratio of Increase were ap-
piled to the whole country, without
taking into account the numbers of
new factories that have been started in
the last few years, who can deny that
general prosperity has visited the
country. And what a depth of mean
ing those three words Open the
Mills. uttered by Mr.. Mckinley less
than four years age, has really con-
veyed."
