Bisbee daily review., 1904-09-25

cording to Commissioner Whites own table of retail prices; it is only about one-half of the increase in prices, and only one-third of the increased cost of living, acording to honest and scien- tifcally constructed table of Dun.
 Since 1903. there has not been even a 2 per cent increase in railway wages. On the contrary, as is wei known, there have been material cuts in the wages paid railway labor, especially to such employees as are mem0crs of labor unions. At a conservative es- innate 290,0000 men have been laid off with no wages at all, and the wages of many classes of labor tha; were retained have been reduced since 1903 by an average of 10 per cent. And this, in spite of the fact that the cost of living has continued to ab- vance, and on March 1, 1904, was 4S per cent higher than on July 1, 1897"
 The figures given are supported by tables from authenticatic reports.
