nearly per cent higher than in 1900 and
more than II per cent higher than in 1890
The compilation includes o of all
kinds, clothing, metals, etc.
The average factory worker, therefore,
is receiving per cent less wages tina in
1890 and IS spending from 4 to II per cent
more for cost Of living. The figures are
a practical test Of the operation of the
trusts. In the last two Presidential cam
paigns the apoIogists for the trusts claim
ed that they would increase wages and
lower the price of their products
In the next Presidential campaign the
complete census figures for the States
and territories will provide arguments
which the party responsible for the trusts
will have difficulty in answering to the
satisfaction of the factory workers.

While the expert mechanical trades and
other bodies of workers closely united in
unions have advanced their wage scales
materially above the panic level of 1893,
"A compilation of the census figures re-
veals an extraordinary fact in regard to
the manufacturing industries of the
country, taken as a whole. 1t was
brought to light In a speech In the House
of Representatives by Mr.. Miers of Indi-
n "a.
The census figures for manufacturing
have been completed for thirty-three
States and territories. They show that
the average wages for all laborers In the
manufacturing industries were s per cent
lower In 1900 than in 1890. In those thirty
three States and territories 1904 $50 wage
earners received an average of si1s As
each a year. or 81 80 a day, In 1890. In
the same States and territories In 1900
l.463,36 wage earners received an aver
age of 1897 So each year, or 81 rs a day,
In some of the great manufacturing
States where the trusts are most power
ful the decline In wages has been greater.
New Jerseys industries paid an average
wage of 81 "a a day In 1890 and only 81 50 a
day In 1900, the decline being 80 per cent.
On the other hand, the compilation OF
prices In Dun's review for last January
showed hat the cost of living now Is

r. II. Newell, chief photographer of the
United States government, who is in ac-s
tive charge of the work outlined by the
irrigation act, a few days ago delivered
addresses on the subject of irrigation be-
fore the Commercial club and the real
estate exchange of Denver. Mr.. Newell
explained the provisions of the law, and
told what was required of the States in
the arid region. Looking into the flu
ture,' he said, "one realizes that there
must come a time when water must be
apportioned with justice to all. and a
century or more hence We will have it
distributed, not upon priority rights, but
upon technical rights. We cannot rave

entitled to because his great-grandfather
happened to secure the water rights two

MONTCOMERY'S
 SOCIAL SIDE.

Montgomery March 29.-(Special )-So- ciety in Montgomery came to a dead stand-still when the Lenton season began and as far as mentionable functions are concerned, that silence has continued throughout its entire length. But sub rosa charming little gatherings that have had the delightful flavor of stolen sweets have filled every day. A Montgomery man who disapproves of these affairs speaks of them as Sneak Parties" and has begged that the fair and gallant delin- quents be hauled up-so to speak-and brought to justice like little boys caught at crap playing But this would be dan gerous to the individual who dares to see any other phase of feminine life during Lent than that presented by the pretty. devout picture she makes as with prayer book and penetential countenance she wends her way to church.
 Some of the entertainments on the calendar for the near future are: The card party at which Mrs. W. J. Naftel will entertain on Tuesday; the Geramn at which the Joie de Vie Club will entertain on Monday when the dance will be led by MT. Edwin Howell Lewis with Miss Re becca Pollard. The card party at which Mrs. w. J. Naftel will entertain on Tues day when the members of the Tuesday Card Club and quite a number of other friends will be her guests.
 The feature of Wednesday which will hold chief interest will be the marriage of Miss Elizabeth Lahey and Mr. Edward George Lowery of New York formerly of AtlA.tA- whinh. Ia ta hA snIAmniaAd et th~

Twas We'll He Failed.

From the Nashville American,
 The Memphis Commercial Appeal says of the gallant Richmond Pearson Hobson. who by the way is a warm friend and ad- mirer of Admiral Sampson:
 Hobson dared to do when death seemd to be at he end of the journey. He failed partially, but he won for the American people the proud knowledge that in a moment of peril, when men are needed to toss away as a bauble even life for home and country, they are not wanting. It was Hobson also who brought to his countrymen the broadening knowledge that old Spain yet had chivalric sons such as Cervera, whom all brave men and nations delight to honor.
 Hobsons was daring act truly: but suppose he had succeeded in his under taking? What then? There would hava been no naval battle and victory at San tiago, no credit or glory for anybody The Spanish fleet would have been blown up by it's commander in Santiago harbor it's lighter guns had been removed and placed upon the heights to mow down American soldiers. The fleets crew and many of it's guns would have been added to the Spanish land forces strengthened the Spanish position and probably have cost thousands of American lives. Hob sons was a daring act, but as a tactical movement it Is not one for either Hob- son or Sampson to boast of. It Is well that it failed.
