Secretary Shaw must have a poor
opinion of the intelligence of the Amer
iean people when he can say, as he did
in a recent address: May the good
Lord deliver US from another period
when living expenses are cheap" II
was hardly necessary for him to invoke
the assistance of the Almighty to ward
of what he evidently looks on as a
misfortune, for the Republican Party
may be depended on to keep up the cost
of living to the utmost point. Living
expenses will not be cheap If Mr..
Shaw's party can prevent 1t.
Right at this time beef in New York
is selling at a price that is practically
prohibitive to all but the wealthy. Who
is benefited by IL? The comparatively
few who raise and sell beef cattle get
little more for their meat but the
chief beneficiaries are the trusts which
exist through the assistance of the Re
publican Party and which are virtually
in control of the meat supply of the
country. They keep up prices and grow
fat on the money squeezed out of the
great body of the American people.
And so it is with other articles of
food. If corn and wheat and vegeta-
bles are high the farmers who produce
those and other foodstuffs derive some
benefit from the high prices, but even
that is not entirely real. for they have
to pay more for whatever they buy. so
that there isn't much gained when they
come to strike a balance
But suppose the farmers and the
by high prices, what is the result on
the country at large? The producers
form but a small proportion of the en-
tire population of the country. The
great army of non-producers who work
for wages and salaries are the suffer-
ers. Mr.. Shaw knows that salaries are
never raised to correspond with the ad-
vanced cost of living. and he ought to
know, II he does not, that rise in the
price of bread and meat does not cause
corresponding advance in wages. In
short, while high living expenses may
benefit few people, the same cause
operates against a far greater number
OF people. As The New Bedford Stand
ard sees 1T, the real point is not in ta-
bles of statistics showing that -four is
so many dollars a barrel now as COM
pared with so many dollars a barrel ten
or twenty years ago. The point of i'm
portance with the average man, de-
pendent on his personal efforts for his
livelihood, and always more or less
concerned as to whether both ends will
meet is whether in return for that eff
fort he can secure a more or a less
amount of the things which he deems
desirable. Does he for his daily work
procure for his family and himself
what, all things considered. Is a reas-
enable return for that work-not in fig-
ures of dollars and cents and tabulated
statistics of average wages, but in food
and shelter and raiment and those
things which make for the alienation
of life? If he does, the figures of the
price current have no vital interest to
him. even If he does grumble at their
altitude. If he does not, no prayer for
deliverance from cheap living satisfies
him.

Of the most entertaining, logical and
humorous "penners" in Alabama TODAY

and his logic is humor He puts sun
shine instead of pulling sentiment into
the serious phases of life. and any OF
the great papers would make an effec-
tive feature of his articles. as they are
in every respect superior to much of
the full-page illustrated feature STUFF
that appears in the Sunday papers.

FREIGHT WRECK.
Omaha Train From Chicago Late in
Reaching Duluth,

The Omaha train from Chicago, due
in Duluth at 1885 a. M, did not ar
rive yesterday until 6 p. m. It was de-
tanned as the result of freight wreck
near Reedsburg, Wis. The Duluth
Fast Mail for Chicago, due to leave at
o'clock. waited for the Omaha and
did not get away until $50.
Under ordinary conditions the trains
running in and out of Duluth in all
directions are making schedule time,
in spite of the fact that the winter thus
far has been for the most part very
cold. The heaving of the tracks. due
to the fact that there was great
amount of moisture in the earth at the
time winter set in. does not seriously
affect the speed of trains, as the roads
are we'll ballasted and the rails are
heavy.

conditions with which he had to con

was more than two. feet deep at all
times, and in some cases three feet,
What made travel especially difficult
was the fact that the snow was dry
and light. The dogs We're kept at their
task of drawing the toboggan with the
greatest difficulty: They would become
so tired they would frequently lie down
in the snow and it was hard to get
them to move again. The men, were
provided with snowshoes but on ac-
count OF the dry condition of the snow

exhausted when they at last reached
