WAGES AND PRICES.
Good Wages OF Greater Importance
Than Low Cost of Living.

Than Low Cost of Living.
Secretary Shaw's speech at Whining
ton lends itself easily to misrepresen-
tation. A local Demo oatic paper put
over 1t the headline, Living Expenses
Should Be High" Secretary Shaw said
nothing of the kind. What he did say
was that employment for all our peo-
pie at given wage, with living ex-
penses high, is preferable to employ
ment for only one.half our people with
living expenses however cheap" VIII
any Democratic paper dispute that?
Secretary Shaw's speech was useful
for its emphasis upon the community
Of interests 1t is the habit of super
fetal or partisan observers to argue
that the prosperity Of the farmer has
nothing to do with the well being of
the artisan, and vice versa. But Sec
retary Shaw wisely insists that the
two are interdependent If the work
man earns higher wages, he can afford
more and better food, better clothes
and a more comfortable home, and he
furnishes, therefore, better market
for the farmer On the other hand.
higher prices for the farmers cattle
and corn mean more lumber for farm
buildings more barbed wire for fences
and better clothes and furniture. and
this again means more work and better
wages for the artisan.
The American policy of protection Is
impregnable because the American peo-
pie understand this. They cannot be
fooled by free trade orators or Demo
cratic platforms. They know that the
protective tariff promotes the welfare
of the whole people by stimulating and
steadying the market for American
products, and that those interests which
do not appear in the schedules are new
ertheless encouraged and strengthened
by it.
1t takes good while for even so
plain truth rs this to percolate the
consciousness of Democratic leaders.
But there is evidence that 1t is doing so
in the comparatively mild and halting
declarations of Democratic platforms
this year upon the tariff issue,-Boston

WAGE REDUCTION.
Free Trade Means Competition With
European TOilers.

Free Trade Means Competition With
European TOilers.
In the tariff plank Of the Republican
platform 1t is asserted that 1.-The meas
ure of protection should always at least
equal the difference in the cost of pro-
duction at home and abroad"
Let the workingmen Of the United
States take note of this.
The difference between the cost of
production at home and that abroad Is
caused by and equal to the difference
between the wages paid to American
workingmen and those paid to the toll
ers of foreign countries.
Protection for American Industries Is
protection for American wage earners.
The Republican party says to foreign
manufacturers: You shall not bring
the products Of underpald labor into
this country to compete unfairly with
the products of well paid American la
Dor. AS much as you withhold from
your employees shall be paid into the
treasury of the United States by those
who buy your goods. so that when
those goods are offered to consumers
here they cannot be sold below the
prices of goods OF the same class made
at home"

vocates of wage reductiOn.-Albany

Heavy Loss to Crops

Special dispatches from the prin-

loss through unreasonable weather
and the recent floods will not be far
from 10000, 900 bushels in Kansas.
portions of Missouri, parts of Okla

wheat is standing in the fields,
splendid crop, full ripe, but the
ground is too wet to admit the har-
vesting machines. A large part of
this grain will be lost. Is addition
considerable grain is said to be rot
ting in the stack and shock. Grain
men in Nebraska say the bad wealth
er will cost the farmers of that state
fully $4,000, 900 bushels. Up to the
flood season the prospect in Kansas
was for yield of 10000, 900 bushels.
1t is now estimated that 40 per cent,
of this will be lost In Iowa the
conditions are much improved and
the entire crop may be saved there
with week of dry, warm weather.
In the Northwest spring wheat grow
ing states all make a splendid show
ing. The weather has been ideal
and the grain is said to be filling
well and standing up. Oklahoma
harvested most of its wheat before
the floods set in; the yield there will
be about normal. Texas has its
wheat crop well in hand and with
decreased acreage will produce con-
siderable more than last year, due
to improved farming methods.

 News.

Ensley, September 1.-(Special.) )-The mayor and aldermen met in regular semi monthly session tonight The action of the previous meeting declaring the sani- tary contract valid, was repealed, and the present contract with A. w. Muckin- fuss was continued until October l. A number of other matters were transacted, including the monthly reports of the city officials.
 Mayor Scott was in the chair, and All dermen Phillips, Mcintyre, Rogers, Thompson, Hollingsworth and Graham were present. After the reports of the officers were submitted a resolution was passed repeating the pound act relative to sheep and goats. This means that hereafter sheep and goats will be per- mitted to run at large.
 The sanitary contract elicited consid- erable discussion. At the last meeting the council preached the contract with MT. Muckinfuss. It was reconsidered to- night and the board voted to extend the contract until October 1. By this time 1t Is estimated the new sanitary sewers of Ensley will be connected with the county sewer. The clerk was instructed to notify the people to pay sanitary tax until October l to the contractor. The city will then take charge.
 It was reported to the mayor and alder men that both the sanitary and storm sewerage systems had been completed as per the contract awarded by the council last winter. The systems were finished just about two months ahead of the time designated in the contract.
