The JeReries-Corbett mill come off
on schedule time at San Francisco last
Friday and Pompadour jim went down
and out in the tenth round. This will
undoubtedly finish his career in the
prize ring and his ambition to pose be-
fore the sporting world as pugilist.
His egotistical theory that IA massive
brain would aid him in winning the
victory oyer animal instinct and brute
force vanished in thin air when Jeff
cries landed on his pancreatic re.
giou. Some OF Jim's enemies may un-
kindly remark that the massive brain
dropped into the feet OF lhe fallen glad
iator, thus accounting for his sluggish
movements and inability to keep
out of Jetf's way.

Nebraska is rapidly placing herself
i'll the front ranks of the Republican
party. and regaining her lost political
prestige, caused by bowing to strange
gods and following the fallacies of Bry-
anism, by the declaration on National
issues of the Republican State Conven-
tion held at Lincoln Nebraska, Aug. Is,
which read as follows:
1--WE congratulate, not only ourselves,
but the people at large, that the adj
ministration of our national affairs, and
our negotiations with foreign nations,
are being conducted by the courageous
Republican President, who knows no
fear, who courts no favor, but who
loves peace crowned with honor, and in
whose charge we have Il feeling of per-
feet safety aud security; president
whom the American people now desire
to honor with second term as the
chief magistrate of the greatest aud
grandest nation of the earth Theodore
Roosevelt.
"We adhere to the American proUec-
tive policy of the Republican party
which has increased the revenues and
not impeded trade; which has opened
the doors of mills and factories to mil
lions of American skilled mechanics,
and is returning to them the higher
wages which are the just recompense of
their tolls.
"The Republican party recognizes
that legitimate business, fairly capital
lied and honestly conducted, has in
creased our industries at home and ex.
panded our trade abroad, and enabled
as to compete successfully with foreign
countries in the markets OF. the world
hut the Republican party is sunalterably
opposed to all combinations of capita
under whatever name, having for theil
purpose the sitting of competition and
arbitrarily controlling production OF
fixing prices,
For the nations defense; for the
strengthening OF the navy; for the en-
largemeut Of our foreign commences; fo
the employment of American working
men in mines, forests, mills, factories
and ship yards, and for the enhance
ment of the value of farm products
we favor such appropriate Legislation
as shall make the seas give evidenc
that American. built and American
owned and American-manned ships ar
carrying American foreign commerc
to the four corners Of the earth. 1t /
the wish OF the Republicans of NebraS
ka that every ship that carries Amer
can goods and American products int
the harbors of foreign nations sha
sail under the American flag.
Tho Philippines are ours as the lC
g,imate and crowniug result of honor
able warfare, and we hold them not 10
barter or for sale, but as part of Tia
National domain made sacred to us b
the American blood which has bee
shed to plant and maineain the Star
aud Stripes upon the far.oH isles c
the Pacific ocean.
Under the administration OF tn
Republican Presidents, Mckinley an
Roosevelt, the people Of those island
have received the benefit OF America
laws; their burdens are beiu
lighteued; their hearts are being glad
dened; their homes are being bright
encd. and their children are being died
lcated TO wider and purer civilization
aud we shall ever guard and protec
them as an inheritance as sacred to u
are the principles of liberty and gov

GOMPERs AND REDUCTIONS IN
WAGES

Some things which Mr.. Gompers, the
president of the American Federation
of Labor, said in his address before
the convention of that federation in
Boston the other day do not give the
impression that he is a wise and safe
leader For instance, among other
things, he said: 1T is the hight OF
economic unwisdom to curtail the con-
Stunning power of the masses. While l
do not know to what extent our sug-
gestions may influence employers in
the effort to dissuade them from pur-
suing the unwise and uneconomic fall
lacy of wage reduction, yet clear
sense of duty must prompt us to make
our position upon this question clear
and comprehensive. Working people
should resist any attempt to reduce
their wages or increase their hours"
If Mr.. Gompers' advice is followed
literally what will be the result? Clear
ly thousands of working people will be
thrown out of employment. 1t is a fact
that in the steel trade many mills have
been closed already, and on Thursday
an announcement of a 10 per cent. re-
duction in wages of cotton mill oper-
atives was made in the Fall River
(Mass) district. This announcement
affects at least $4,000 operatives.
Will these operatives act wisely if
they follow the advice given them by
Mr.. Gompers? We think not. If the
mills were making money they would
be justified in refusing to accept a re-
fact, the mills are losing money--a bout
l cent pound on printed cloth. The
price of cotton is high, and it promises
to go higher. The prices of cotton IA
brics have not advanced as the price
of cotton had advanced.
If operatives refuse to accept the re-
duction the mills will be closed. The
operatives will get nothing. They will
be idle instead of earning at least
enough to live upon. Mr. Gompers may
say that the prices of manufactured
product ought to be advanced. But
how can they be advanced? The mar
ket appears to be fully stocked. Until
the stocks are worked off there is no
way to force up prices. If prices are
arbitrarily advanced consumers will
not buy.
Mr.. Gompers may please some of the
workmen by such advice as that which
he gave at Boston, but surely he did
not please those who do their own
thinking The right policy for work.
men to pursue is to insist upon an in
crease of wages when their employers
are making money and to consent to a
reduction when they are not. Employ
ers are not going TO keep their mills
going simply for the benefit of their
employees, but when they are prosper
Gus they should give their employees a
fair share of their prosperity.
The Savannah morning news. (Savannah, Ga.) 1900-current, 1903-11-16

1t will be observed that the foreign
element predominates in domestic serv-
ice, personal service, transportation
fisheries, manufactures, mining, la
borers, apprentices and children at
work, while the native element has
the lead in government professions
trade and agriculture. The percentage
of foreign element engaged in agricul-
ture is relatively very small, being a
little more than q per cent. In the
matter of government, however, the
two elements are pretty nearly bal
anced, there being less than per cent.
of difference between them.
In Massachusetts the Irish race
takes the lead of foreign additions to
the population, forming 1871 per cent.
of the whole number employed in all
industries. In government the Irish
element numbers 81 per cent. out of a
total of 9.02 per cent. for the foreign
element as a whole, again illustrating
the Irishman's fondness for and sue
cess in politics. The showing of the
native and foreign elements in the
higher occupations, the professions, is
as follows:

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Chicago Chronicle (Dem.) says:
The Monroe doctrine and American
peace have received their first severe
blow from the administration now in
power in Washington. Disclaimers
from European capitals of a purpose to
interfere at the isthmus or to make a
move Immediately in any other quar-
ter do not change the situation in the
least, Hostility and suspicion in South
America will ultimately lead to hos
tility elsewhere"
The New Orleans Picayune (Dem. }
says: 1T might be the cheapest thing
in the end to annex the isthmus and
assume protectorate over the neigh
boring Republics. That the problem
is a serious one is seen by the great
naval armament that is being concen-
trated in the Caribbean Sea ready for
prompt action along the Colombian
coast, if need be. One thing is GER
tian, and that is that the Monroe doc
trine must be upheld"
The Cleveland Plain Dealer (Dem. }
says: Gen. Woods purely military
experience has been confined to a sub
ordinate part in two skirmishes. He
was a competent army surgeon and a
satisfactory White House physician
he mas Deen une cnum OF two preSt-
dents. That friendship made it possible
for him to succeed to the governorship
of Cuba when the hard work had been
done and the most perplexing problems
settled by his predecessors-Bro
Ludlow and the rest. There is small
prospect now that this question will
be argued on its merits. which is I'M
fortunate both for the country and for
Gen. Wood"
The Springfield (Mass.) Republican
(Ind.) says: New York, on the TIRES
hold OF the new world naturally has
the biggest share of the great task of
assimilating our new population. The
public school comes first, and so 1t
is fitting that the biggest school in the
world is TO be built in New York, among
its immigrant population. Public
school G. will stand on Hester street,
between Essex and Norfolk streets and
Seward Park. 1t will have accom-
modations for about $500 pupils. There
will be 124 classrooms, a gymnasium
cooking room, workshop. baths and
lockers. 1. win also be the first school
building In the city with elevators for
the pupils"
