Wages and Prices.
(Johrstown (Pa.) Tribune.)

-
In tire organs which have been howl
ing that prosperity is calamity. be-
cause you may have to pay a little
higher prices Tor things than when no
body has money to buy. it has been
Strenuouslr insisted that the advance IN
wages in this country during recent
years mas not been at all commensurate
with the advance in the cost of
living. When asked for proof of
their ,"sition they invariably refer
to an isolated case or two in the
the matter of prices of living nccess:-
ties and then subside on the self-con-
sciousncSs of Il case we'll sustained.
Obviously the only way to arrive at
correct conclusion in such a comparison
is to consider wages throughout the
country in all industries and prices
throughout the country in ali things
that enter into the ordinary cost OF
living. and give them weigh: in the
proportion they bear to the whole
This the United States Government
has done. Oh an entirely impar-
iitl basis. OF course. and the result
is i showing that. while the cost of
many items Of living has increased

while hours of labor have been reduced.

Labor goes over the subject item by

conclusions are reached with unerring
eXactness. This has been a perversc

tanned from few exceptional articles.

is seen to be favorable to the wage

Here is Il little item which appeared
recently in Il Lewiston paper:
1t is generally conceded in the college
world this season that there Viii na but
one in the football game this %cai and
inat is Bates. All the other teams arc
dsorganiZcd and weak.
\ few days later the Colby eleven,
one OF the weak and disorSanizcd
teams according to the Lewiston point
OF view. went TO Garcclon field and
trounced tho Bates boys 10 the tune of
> TO a. This illustrates anew the en-
ba YraSSncnts of celebrating Champion
ships before they are won. In the case
of the Maine college football or base
ball games it is hardly safe TO build
bnnfIres or blow horns OF hire bands or
hrag in the newspapers till the game
has been played. Bates has been IN
particular the victim of premature cele-
brat ions. and not infrequentlY the fault
has been largely that of iniudiciou%
newspaper writer's Of the type indicated
by the above clipping.

deal t" say about 'scrdpple" which
seems to b" the staple autumn diet Of

this article of food it must be one
which would make the ambrusia Of the

The Triumph of Marconi.

the tireleSS genius whose name is most
closely associated with the wonderful
thing known as wireless biography,
has at last made wireless communica-
ton across the Atlantic IA reality. 1t is
true that for some time signals have
been exchanged. but this month the
system has been perfected to the eX-
tent that messages thous ands of WORDS
in length are transmitted between
America and Europe just as they
would be sent by cable. Whether 81
not this new method of communication
across vast spaces ever becomes COM
mercially profitable or practical, the
world will not withhold its tribute TO
the inventor who has accomplished
what most people have been regarding
as an impossible undertaking.
1t was about q dozen years ago that
William Marconi first startled the
world with his theory of communities
ton through the air without the use Of
N1TpS itlc lldt U,tl CApNi LIN IL -
before his time and nobody will be able
to say in whose mind the idea of Wire
less biography originated. 1t is
Marconi. however. who deserves and
will be given the credit of making
wireless telegraphy d reality. First,
vessels on the ocean began to keep in
touch with the shore for some distance
out and to send messages to the land
t. which they were approaching Then
the exchange Of greetings between
vessels at sea became possible as the
system Was developed, and then vessels
found it possible to remain in touch
with the land for practically the whole
VOYAGE across the Atlantic. Recently
in case of the Lusitania which Waa
breaking all records across tho
Atlantic. it was found possible to re-
port her progress from day {" day
