an increase in pay from $3.50 to $500

good laborers and have been re-

price of cotton for the past five years

cents per pound. On a ten million bale
crop the yearly loss is about 100000
600, which amount would build and

continue to allow this annual loss. or
will they cooperate and manufacture

/, The monument unveiled today
takes first rank for artistic beauty
among the many that have been
erected to the memory of President
Mckinley. The memorial consists of
three central figures, two groups and
the statue of the president, in the
middle. One one side is Peace" and
on the other Prosperity" represent
ing in bronze two cardinal principles
for which the dead president stood.
When he received the wounds which
resulted in his death he was talking
prosperity and peace. The statue
represents him as he appeared stand
ing before the people at Buffalo, and
large part of the text of his last
address is in relief. The statue is
warmly commended by those who
were most closely acquainted with
Mr.. Mckinley. 1t was with some diff
ficulty and only after months of study
that the sculptor felt satisfied that he
had truly reproduced the president in
the pose that was characteristic of
him and one so well known to the
people of the entire country.
The group of Peace" portrays a
child and its mother, in an easy pose,
apparently listening to what the
speaker is saying. 1t is a bronze
statue Of a typical American woman.
The figure of Prosperity" shows a
toiler and an apprentice, both listen
hg to the remarks of the president.
statue Of the president and the
'tt- ; groups are OF bronze and the
entire memorial stands upon a hand
some granite base, the sides of which
bear suitable inscriptions. The loca-
ton of the monument is a conspicu-
GUS one, being directly in front of
the main entrance to the state capitol.
