Massachusetts Labor Statistics

The annual statistics of manu-
facture in Massachusetts,, issued by
the Board of Statistics and Labor
of that state, shows that the wages
paid in 1899 were 1867 per cent,
greater than in 1898, and that there
was further increase of 6.67 per
cent. in the year 1900. These in
creased wages were in industries
which have been represented by
Democrats as decreasing wages. In
1899 the boot and shoe manufact-
ures of Massachusetts, paid out sac,

An overwhelming Republican vi

An overwhelming Republican vic
tory would prove stimulus to trade
of all kinds and we would continue
to invade foreign markets, while a
Democratic triumph would unsettle
business and inaugurate a system OF
retrenchment that would limit the
demand for labor and reduce the
demand for the the products of our
farms and factories.

When the people forget that the
Democrats declared the civil war a
failure, that free trade would bring
prosperity, that free silver was a
panacea for all the evils of the body
polite, that the Army was composed
of rascals, and that the flag should
be furled, then there may be hopes
of the country going Democratic.

1t has been the history of all

1t has been the history of all
nations that in time of great pros
perity there is always more or less
contention between capital and
labor. The present hard coal strike
was not precipitated on account of
political conditions, and no amount
of fallacious argument on the part
of Democratic orators can make
the public believe it. Better have
splendid prosperity with an occas-
ional strike than years of hunger
and des.itution under Democratic
rule.

Hope springs eternal in the breast

1913 per cent. more than in 1899.
In the class designated as "Ma-
chimes and Machinery" the increase
in wages was 22.84 per cent. In
the wooden mills it was 1887 per
cent. The average yearly earnings
of the employees were $50 per
cent. greater in 1900 than in 1890.
In the cotton mills this increase
amounted to 1874 per cent; in the
wooden mills to 6.39 per cent; and
in leather to 3.22 per cent.
The Massachusetts statistics
further show that labor received
more than one-half the entire in.
come from the product. In the
boot and shoe business the product
was $4S,aaa,576 and the wages
paid Sa7,476,ao7 or in other words
56.9S per cent. of the entire indus
try product was paid out in wages
and 43.o2 per cent. went to pay
other expenses and profit on the in
vestment. In the cotton industry
1898 per cent. went into wages; in
the manufacture of wooden goods
4o.7I per cent. of the product went
into wages, and in the manufacture
of machinery 5I.o5 per cent. went
for wages.
These are the official statistics in
regard to wages paid in the most
congested districts of the United
States and they are for industries
that are protected by the Dingley
Tariff Law. They are the indus
tries the tariff reformers would strike
at and it is not difficult to guess
where the blow would fall with
greatest force. If the employees in
the cotton and wooden mills and the
boot and shoe factories OF Mass
achusetts now receive more than
one-half the income from the sale
OF the product it Is practically Ger
tain that they would be compelled
to accept less wages under q tariff
law that has reduced the protection
given to those industries that would
make sharper the competition with
the same industries in Europe where
less wages are paid. We cannot
move the protection from industries
where labor receives a greater share
of the product than does capital
without hitting labor harder than
we do capital.
1t is such condition as this in
Massachusetts that suggests the WIS.,
dom of Senator Hanna's advice to
"Stand pat on the Tariff" To dis.
turb the protection,to the industry
means to lessen the protection to
labor employed in that industry.

Ambitions in Waiting.

Ex-Governor Bob Taylor of Tennessee
has for some time cherished senatorial aspi-
rations. Asked the other day as to his
present plans he declared that if General
Bate desired another term he would not
oppose him. AS it is understood that Cen
eral Bate does desire another term, Gov
ernor Taylor is for the present "out of it..
1t may be years before his voice is raised in
the upper house of Congress in those tones
which in other days delighted the lower
house.
Lieutenant Governor Woodruff of New
York has had quite enough of his present
office He has served three terms, and Is
shying at the suggestion of a fourth. He is
not renouncing politics. He likes the game,
and has the means and the leisure to play
1t. Asked the other day to his future, he
admitted that he would like to be a MEM
Der of the United States Senate. But, he
added, he would not think of appearing for
that Office in opposition to Mr.. Platt, who
desires reelection.
Thus do we see two ambitious young men
deferring to the claims of their elders. 1t
may be urged that there is more shrewd-
ness than Difference in this. General Bate
IS a strong man in Tennessee and Mr.
Plat strong man in New York. Opposi-
tiOn to either at this time would probably
be fruitless. So Governor Taylor and Lieu
tenant Governor Woodruff decide to await
more favorable opportunity; and in doing
SO each pays a compliment where it will
do the most good. The admirers of Cen
eral Bate and of Mr.. Plat will be expected
to remember these tributes when senatorial
races in Tennessee ard New York are free
for all.
But there is a good deal of Difference in
the matter. too. Politics is pretty selfish
game, but it develops sentiment and ce-
ments some very strong friendships Sena-
tors of the age of General Bate and Mr..
Piatt, and successful. as they have been,
over a long period OF years, inspire their
Heutenants and juniors with genuine adIni-
ration. The youngsters hold off from any
thing resembling a contest from sheer af-
fection. The right of way is conceded to
the old man as long as he wants it. His
claims are highest and beyond dispute. 1t
will be time enough for them to raise their
flags when he retires voluntarily, or is put
out of further calculation by the success of
the common enemy.
