VOTES TO BURN.

OF the making of bolts there is no
end. Most of these are the rainy-day
manufacture of string fends and spec
ial correspondents who 'tneed the
money. Without doubt certain disap-
pointed politicians in both parties are
viciously anxious to see trouble and
willing to assist in its creation. AL
most any irresponsible can secure
space in some newspaper for predic-
lions of dire defeat for the republican
party this fall. These disgruntled pol
iticians Of both parties and their
claquers are giving an excellent imita-
ton Of a pig under gate. But it is an
imitation, all squeal and no pig. There
will be no large detection of rank and
file democrats from Porter on account
of the charges Of corporation collision
brought against him by members of
his party. There will be no serious cut
in Cummins' vote because of the sore
ness of corporations and corporation
supporters.
In some localities where local issues
and local interests intervene, there may
be changes in the vote. 1t is likely
that these will offset each other. Some
scratching will be done in Iowa. The
abolition Of the circle in itself argues
change and distribution of the individ-
ual ballot, but it forecasts no serious
changes in the aggregates of partisan
vote. "Pete" Hepburn is right when
he predicts little cutting of the ticket
by Iowa republicans.
Iowa will have straight republican
votes to burn in November.

where the whole attention of the peo-

years after that the herring ceased to

that the people were more prosperous

WORK, WAGES AND LIVING EXPENSES.

Figures collected by the bureau o!
labor show that since 1890 the number
of people employed in this country has
been increasing rapidly, the additional
ones given employment in some years
amounting 10 as high as AZ per cent
The increase in the number of en-
ployes was particularly noticeable in
those years when the country was most
engade in the formation of combina-
tons and so-called trusts. For the last
two or three years the increase has
not been so high, the per cent coming
down as low as Sc. On the other hand,
1t is also noticeable that the number
Of hours per week by all employees in
the country has been steadily decreas-
ing, each year since 1880 showing an
additional curtailment of hours per
week until 1904, when the movement
ceased.
Another thing to give hope to him
who works for another is the constan.
increase in the amount of wages
earned per week. This has been going
on steadily -since 1890, the highest
umjp being in 1894, when wages jump
ed 21.5 per cent, and they continued
to advance in varying scale, last years
raise being lie per cent. Last year
also the total number of employees in
creased 63 per cent, and from this the
bureau deduces that the total earnings
of sill employees per week increased ex-
actly per cent.
Comparing this with the advance
of the cost of living enables the
bureau to say that the purchasing
power of the average weekly employe,
measured by the retail price of food,
increased an even per cent.
The data were procured by persona
visits of agents of the bureau to the
industries investigated, and the infor-
nation was taken directly from the
various pay rolls and other records in
existence and available for reference.
