WAGES AND THE COST OF LIv.

WAGES AND THE COST OF LIv.
Since July, 1897. just before
the passage OF the Dingley Act,
prices have risen on an average OF
46 per cent, according to Dams
tables. These are the most sci
entitically constructed of any
tables to show the relative cost
of living. But even the ridicu
lous figures Of our National Bu.
reau of Labor tells us that the
prices were 33.7 per cent. higher
in December, 1905, than in 1897.
Bradstreet's figures say that
prices in January, 1906, were
AZ per cent. higher than in July,
1897.
The latest figures we have as
to wages are those of our Nat.
ional Labor Bureau, issued in
July, 1905, for 1904 and previous
years. These indicate that week
ly wages were l3 per cent. higher
in 1904 than in 1897. No one
will pretend that either weekly
our hourly wages have risen %
per cent. since 1904. and yet
they would have to rise 20 per
cent. to catch up with the cost
of living. Assuming that they
have risen per cent. since 1904,
their purchasing power is now
much less than in 1897, or than
in any year since. That is, if
wages are now 20 per cent. hig her
while prices are 46 per cent.
higher than in 1897, the wage
Garner cannot now buy within 10
or 20 per cent. as much with his
wages as he could in 1897. The
cost of living has gone up so
much more than wages that the
wage Garner is now worse off than
he was in 1897. Our wage earners
are working hard and wondering
what is wrong. They find it much
harder TO live comfortably.
| do not wish to be understood
az attributing this pilferlug of
the wage Garner wholly to the
tariff. Other causes contributed.
But | wish to make the fact plain
that the working people are not
satisfied with present conditions,
as the opponents of tariff revision
say that they are. Wage earners
pay fully 80 per cent OF all the
tariff taxes, and they are dissat
istied, restless discontUnted. aud
many are turning to the different
isms in the hopes Of relief. | he
lieve the remedy for discomfort
lies wholly in just and equitable
revision OF the tariff schedules

with this is the new Minnesota cap

finest structures of the kind in the
United States ANA which cost. includ-

signer Of tn noble example of Ameri-

is also the architect of the United
States custom house building now APP

Mr.. Gilbert is known as one of the
men whose hi-h ideals and broad cul-
ture make for the establishment Of
high standards in the architectural
profession and thereby exercise
great influence on public taste, which
is affected to a large extent by the
character Of the structures which the
architects design.
AIr Gilbert is the son of brigadier
general in the civil war. Samuel A.
Gilbert. and was born in GAINESVILLE,
O., in 1859. His education was obtain
ed in GAINESVILLE, in st. Paul and at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
and he has been a practicing architect
since 1876. Two of the most praised
buildings Of the Worlds fair at st.
Louis were the festival hall and the
art building, both of which were de-
signed by Mr.. Gilbert He is also the
architect of the Essex county court
house at Newark, n. ]. He is promi-
nent member of the Architectural
league Of New York and in his pro-
fessional work has done much to en-
courage the employment OF sculptors
and mural painters upon generous
scale in the ornamentation of important
structures.

Men Are Ripger Now.

Until the sixteenth century armof

were governed by the necessities of
war, and changes in 1t were the re-
suit Of practical experience and actual
experiment on the battlefield. After
the sixteenth century it became fan
tastic and meaningless, gala costume
rather than a harness. The greatest
captains opposed its use. but the no

ton. After II was made bullet proof
1t became SO enormously heavy that at
the end Of the sixteenth century 1t
was complained that gentlemen of thir.
ty were even at that age deformed by
the weight of their armor In spite of
the huge armors of Henry VIII, of
Anthony Of Burgundy and of some 9th

OF the tariff irEed} the cause of
discomfort. After that it would
be time to see what other laws
are necessary to give TO the
workers their just proportion of
what they produce.
TARIFF THE MOTHER OF TRUSTS.
Trusts are natural and logical
result of high protective tariff.
The higher the tariff duties the
greater the number of trusts.
With the possible exception of
Russia, the United States has
the highest tariff known. We
also have the most trusts. Free
trade England has some "syndi
Gates" but few. if any. trusts
like ours. None that sell goods
at home for 20, 80 or 80 per cent.
more than they sell them for ex-
port, as do the trusts of this and
other protected countries.
But it is not SO much OF trusts
that l wish TO speak. as of their
evils and effects. | see no great
objections TO great corporations,
or even to combinations and syn
dicates, if they behave them
selves. They will always behave,
II they have no special privileges
no monopoly power which will
enable them to control prices.
But when. with high tariff wall,
you prohibit foreign competition,
you invite the competitors iu any
ildu,tr inside of that wall to
get together to sustain prices and
bleed the peuned-up consumers.
We should not be surprised that
We have SO many trusts and that
they have put the prices up so
nigh. 1t Is not surprising that
we have graft and corruption In
public aud private life. 1t would
be strange if our present tariff
system did not result in trusts
and graft. 1t Is equivalent 10 a
license TO form com mOinatiOnS aud
trusts TO graft off of the public.
No other question before the
public today means as much, or
half as much, to the ordinary
man, as does the tariff question
All other CRAFTS combined do not
equal the annual graft of the
tarltf-the continuous robbery of
the people under the cover OF
protective" tariff law. When
the consumers and voters of this
tariff ridden land understand
that the tariff laws permit the
taking unnecessarily of an aver.
age of not less than $50 a year
per family from their pockets aud
turning the proceeds over to trusts
they will make short work of
such laws. Every article of food,
clothing and shelter is tariff
taxed. If an article is not taxed
directly, it is indirectly. IL is
