that he produced. In 1900. according TO
the same authority. he received sl7.A out

In other words during the decade 1890 1900
the wages OF the American were reduced
on the average nearly II per cent.
All wealth being the product OF labor
exerted upon land or of labor and capital
exerted upon land IL follows that II the
share OF the product assigned to one of
the factors Is continually lessened, the
share remaining for distribution between
the other factors Is continually increased.
And this Is Just what is happening. The
rich are growing relatively richer and the
poor relatively poorer continually. And
yet there are 'lobsters" who prate OF pro-
tection' In the interest OF labor. Why,
