for some time slave in Algiers, and
there he devised plan to free himself
and thirteen OF his fellow sufferers.
One of them traltorously revealed the
design. and they were all brought be-
fore the dey OF Algiers, who promised
them their lives on condition that they
revealed the contriver OF the plot.

Cervantes. Save my companions and

They parted. and the editor returned

REPUBLICAN, PROSPERITY.

How the WHGewOrkers In Two In
dustrses Got Their share.
Two census bulletins on manufac-
lures. just issued. one on carriages and
wagons and the other on typewriters,

safely rely upon IL to win victories for
them at the coming election.
In the carriage and wagon industry
there was decrease OF per cent In
average wages from 1890 to 1900. the
wages In 1900 being $1.59 a day for
the 62,540 earners. AS the cost OF liv-
Ing increased per cent from 1890 to
1900. the real wages OF these workers
declined about u per cent. That means
that to be as well OF in 1900 as they
were In 1890 these carriage and wagon
makers should have received $1.78 q
day In 1900 instead or only $3.50. The
difference helps to swell the profits OF
the manufacturers. for the value OF
the product was Is per cent more In
1900 than in 1890.
In the typewriter industry average
wages decreased z per cent from 1890
to 1900. The value OF the product In
creased 81 per cent and the capital
employed 400 per cent, or from 81, 52l,-
1888 In 1890 to $500, 431 in 1900. AS
one OF these concerns, the Union Type
writer company. has an outstanding
capital OF $1S.0O0.OO0. which is selling

er industry aud OF the great econo-
mics OF trusts" for the trust was form

1t Is probable that there was no such
increase in actual capital employed as
the government statistics indicate and
that $5.OO0,0O0 Will cover everything,
including the expensive selling Offices
In this and foreign countries, and that
hve-sixths OF the capital of the scores
OF typewriter companies is water. u
the market value OF the stock be con
sidered, the percentage OF water
still greater.
