received in 1902 from their employers
the sum of $193, 552, IT'S, which was
nearly sixteen millions more than
their rotal wages in the previous year.
The average earnings of the individ-
ual workers in all industries was
s459.9S, which was S10.29 more than
in the previous year. In six of the
nine leading industries of the State
more was DONE. either through the
employment of more hands or through
the putting in or more time, In 1909
and in 1901.
The fertilizing manufacturing in
Gustry shows the largest per cent. in
crease in the total amount of wages
paid out-S1.S4. The shoe industry
is next with an increase of 28-12 per
cent. Employees of the malt distiller-
les command the highest wages, av-
eraging 1852 a year. Workers on
models, lasts and patterns in the shoe
industry are next with average yearly
earnings of $740.42.
Such figures as these prove that
there is little justification for the cry
that has been raised frequently by
agitators. that the wage-earners were
not getting their share of the general
prosperity.-Albany Evening Journal.

munity are earning good and continual
wages. This has been the condition
now for several years under our pres
ent protective tariff, and in conse-
quence farmers have gotten better
prices for their products, and their
lands have enhanced in value proper
tionately.
The Eastern farmer cannot, of
course compete with the Western ag-
riculturist in the great crops, but
when the factory hands of the New
England and Middle States are fully
employed there is always a demand
for farm produce which comes under
the head of truck farming" fully
equal to the productive ability of the
entire farming community of these
Eastern states. In fact, the only diff
ficulty which the New England farm
er has experienced during the past
two or three years has been the same
as that of the Western agriculturist-
namely, inability to get sufficient help
to enable him to produce and harvest
his products. Says the American
Agriculturist of July 25:
SLOWLY but surely the values of
farm lands in the Eastern and New
England states are improving. The
!
Agriculturist's special investigation
should make an impress for the better
ment CT the farmers financial stand
ing. Granted that the splendid agri-
cultural lands OF the West are most
attractive propositions. yet there is
no reason why the progressive farmer
of the Middle and Eastern states
should not be accorded due considera-
fion from hanks and business inter
ests generally, when loans are sought
for the further improvement of the
farms. The testimony of our CORE
spondents on the higher trend of
values should inspire greater conf
dence than ever before in the merits
of Eastern farming. where we have
the best cash markets in the world at
our doors. Land in some OF our East
ern and New England states is now
relatively among the best business
propositions in the country
We fully agree with the above that
the Eastern farmer is entitled to
every consideration at the hands of
the banks Twenty years ago he was
lending his money to build up the
agricultural lands of the West A few
years of protection has enabled the
Western agriculturist to either pay OF
his mortgage entirely. or reduce it
most materially. and now the farmers
of the West have money to loan. and
their banks are bullying not only with
the necessary currency needed in the
moving crops. but to loan on GOOD
security. to even the East If 1t should
b. wanted But our New England
banks. too. and those OF the Middle
States are bullying with the savings of

The Reason for Tariff Wars.

Protection is held responsible for
tariff wars, but the action of France in
imposing discriminating duties on
American meats because the manufac-
turers of that country wish to force
upon us wares which we do not want,
shows where the responsibility lies.
Tariff wars are entirely chargeable to
the desire to push upon other people
what can not be consumed at hone
Protection only aims at self suficing-
ness. When that idea is strictly adj
hered to no one has a right to take
offense. 1t is as illogical for a nation
to find fault with another nation be-
cause it refuses to buy goods from it
as it would be for Kearny street shop
keeper to call people who refused to
buy from him hard names.-San Fran
cisco Chronicle.
Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1903-09-19

the working classes, and there II
plenty of money to loan at per naut
on satisfactory security.
Thus it is that protection helps sue
financial situation, at the same time
that it defends our industries and en-,
ables our great mass of citizens
whether at work on the farm or in the
factory, to become Independent and
well-to-do. 1t must ever be one of the
greatest reasons given in favor of a
continuation of our protective policy
that the benefits it bestows are wide.
spread and universal. There is not a
building up in one state or one section
of the country; there is no benefit to
be bestowed upon any one branch of
industry; all share and share alike,
and each helps the other in one
great interdependent endless chain of
communication. -So it is that when
we haveswork for all, then the mouths
are filed and the bodies are clothed,
and the houses are built, and the luxu-
ries are consumed, taxing every prod.
ductive institution in the country; tax
ing our transportation facilities to
their utmost, and keeping busy our
avenues of distribution and calling
into employment our great body of
clerical laborers, all in turn, contrib
uting by their consuming power and
purchasing ability to the common
veal of all. Surely such policy, such
a condition should be let alone as
long as prosperity and employment
continue to be at the highest level
ever known, not only in this, but any
other country.

a Boys v icto. y.

Crossroads, Tenn, Sept 14th--Or-
bra Young, the ten-year-old son of Les
ter Young of this place, is a bright
boy, and one who is very well liked
by all who know him.
For some years Orbra has suffered a

times every night, almost all his life.
His father heard of a remedy called

1t is some years now since the free
trader has abandoned his wailings
over the abandoned farms of New

were any decline in values
found, and although in a few cases

had lain down on a stretch of ground
as level as a ballroom floor. The con-
feds were beyond rife shot, but they
opened on us with artillery, and they
did eyerlastingly pillow up the ground
with shot and shell. Every old sol
der knows that artillery fire at long
range is not half so much to be dread
ed as the rattle of musketry, which
sounds on the battlefield like Chinese
firecrackers in a thunderstorm, but it
is a good deal more 'skeery' to nov
