II comparison be made with 1850,
it Is found that the wOrkingman
gets IN wages only lis per cent
of his product to day as against
23.2 per cent then. His product
i've capacity has been more than
doubled, his wages have not doU-
blcd. On the other hand, the
cbcapening of all manufactured
products and the much higher NOM
inal wages, at least IN respect TO
the purchasing power in the mar
kct of manufactured products.
The wOrkingman of to-day can
buy a great deal more with his
wages than he could buy in 1850.
But in making the comparison still
another point must be taken into
consideration, the Improvement in
the standard of living the wide
world over. No class Is content
to live as it did halfa century ago,
and many things that were regard
cd as IuXurics then, books, news
papers, Ice, etc, have become
necessities IL day.
Taking this fact into cOnsidera
ton and weighing all the points
pro and con, the Springfield Re
publican is convinced that ''the
working classes are in quite as
acute a state of discomfort us they
ever have been" There has been
a steady increase IN wages, which
has more than kept up with the adj
vance in those articles in most gene
raj use but it has not kept upI
with the Improvement in the stand
ard of living and the necessities
