UNDERPAID TEACHERS,
Miserable Wages Paid to the Train
ers OF American Youth

Miserable Wages Paid to the Train
ers OF American Youth
report recently made by a committee
OF the Maine Pedagogical Association, an
pointed to ascertain the salaries paid TO
school teachers in that State, helps to re-
enforce the argument frequently made
that our educators in general, and public
school teachers in particular. are a
wretchedly underpaid body of men and
women. As a result of its Investigations
the committee received returns from 1878
teachers in elementary schools, and found
that majority of the women teachers
We're working for from So to 50 per week.
while only SO, or about one-tenth. We're
paid more than SO. 1t was found thaS
half the women teachers in Maine are
working for less than $500 year.
In comparing the pay of Maine teachers
with the wages of cotton mill operatives
in the State. the committee found that the
balance in favor of the former was very
slight. For instance, the $3.50 women
working in the cotton mills of Maine get
an average weekly wage of $500, while
the women school teachers get an aver
age weekly wage of $500. The men in
the cotton mills of Maine get an average
weekly wage of $S.01, while the men
teachers get 1913. Since it costs a per-
son much more to become properly equip
ped for the teaching profession than it
does to become an efficient mill worker, to
say nothing of the higher expense of daily
living for the former, the additional wage
received by the teachers, according to this
report, is far less than il should be.

A. HUGE UNDERTAKING
Chicago Has Tunnel for Freight
Extending Al Miles

Without blare of trumpet the newly
completed freight tunnel system of the
Illinois Tunnel Company was recently
opened in Chicago. This great work was
begun five years ago and the cost approx
imately has been S30,00000O. There are
now in the system A. miles of tunnel
equipped with rails and overhead trolleys
in the district which practically en-
braces all of the downtown mercantile
anu industrial business of Chicago. In
the matter of rolling stock the tunnel
company has now ready for use in its
freight transportation service 30 power
full electric locomotives and 800 cars, and
mas placed orders for 500 additional cars
and 35 new locomotives. The company
has finished connections with thirty bust
Eess buildings in the downtown or loop
district, and connections have also been
made between the freight and warehouses
of nine of the principal railroads. while
others are under way.
President A. G. Wheeler and Chief En-
gineer and Manager Jackson, of the Hi
nois Tunnel Company. figure that from
the opening Of the freight service By their
company there will Immediately be NOV
ing through the subway 10000 tons of
merchandise every twenty-four hours.
None of this will pay less than 30 cents
a ton. and if the average rate is GO cents
ton and the estimates are based upon
So days, the gross income from this
source should be $6,jOO,0O0, and the net
income should be not less than 1000 900
year. President Wheeler, in proof that
an estimate of 10000 tons a day is not
excessive, points to the fact that / LOCO
tons in less than car load lots 20 at GO
cents ton between the railroads every
day, and this business only awaits the
completion of the subway terminals under
the railroads TO be handled entirely bv
the tunnel company. 1t is further figured
that One-third of the goods now carried
by team through the downtown streets of
the city at an expense to the merchants
of above S60,000,O00 a year will in 1907
pass through the subway
The ingenuity of the engineer who has
planned and supervised the construction
of the Chicago subway has been tkxed to
the utmost by conditions confronting him,
on account of the MANY styles of buildings
that had to be tapped to make connections
with the tunnel. In New York and other
eastern CUES many structures have been
built which extend thirty. forty and fifty
feet belo* the street surface, and such
Easements have been built in Chicago only
recently, while others are being construct
ed in connection with new business houses
now in course of erection in the loon dis
trict. These have and are facilitating
the work of the tunnel engineers in max
ing proper connections with the mercan-
tile establishments that will enjoy the
freight service of the tunnel company. In
many instances, however, no two build
ings being alike, each has required its Own
treatment.

favored an income tax announced that
arbitration of labor disputes is impera-
tive. and denounced government by in
junction.
IEen he proclaimed that free silver IS
no longer an issue, because the contention
of the Democratic party IN 1896 has been
proven; he demanded the refusal by the
Democratic party of corporation contri-
buttons; he congratulated Roosevelt on
his democratic principles, and defined a
trust as Il price fixer
The question of trusts he declared TO
be the paramount issue.
Closely allied with this, he asserted. is
the tariff question. The import tax he
declared to be the root of all corruption
in national politics
Government ownership of railroads was
declared to be inevitable, though possibly
not immediate. He proposed dual owner
ship. the nation to own trunk lines, with
the States operating branch lines. On
this question he dwelt at length.
Closing, he INDUCED in a flight of ora
tory ike that which in earlier days made
