A HELPFUL HOBBY.

The average person who, through
ignorance, is disposed to regard with
compassion the harmless and, to
him, useless hobby of the stamp col
lector, will no doubt be surprised to
discover how much of interest and
instruction there is in the pursuit of
stamp collecting. You will invaria-
bly, find that the schoolboy who is
also stamp fiend" knows more of
the geography of the various coun-
tries, their rulers and distinguished
citizens, than any other pupil in the
class.-From Frank ]. Stillman's
Stamp Collecting" in st. Nicholas.

He asserted that the public was Grim

pressure which would check abuses.
He stated also that the time had come
when the corporations of the state
must learn to put the public service
and safety ahead of private profit.
"The public he said, has been treat
ed like victims to be pluclsed instead
of friends to be cultivated. The ele-
mentary laws Of honesty and fair deal

Indifference to ordinary human rights
have prevailed. Everything has been

Because the Western Union manage

messages from the strike breakers at
Los Angeles the entire force of night
operators except six traffic and wire
chiefs went on strike early Aug. 0.
On the preceding night forty-nine Of
the Chicago operators had left their
keys when the messages sent by the
nonunion operators at Los Angeles be-
gan coming In, and for this reason
they We're promptly discharged. Other
men Who were ordered to take their
places refused and also quit work AS
Chicago is the chief relay station Of
the country this strike Is expected to
cripple a large amount Of commercial

OFFICIAL PAPER OF COUNTY
A Palpapable Hit.

In an editorial entitled, Wages De-
fusion, the Louisville Courier-J ournal
makes an interesting answer to a re-
publican newspaper that claimed that
the cotton mill operators in North Ger
many get only s191. O4 a year, while in
America they get s3O4.57.
The Courier-J Journal says: ut looks
a little queer to see arguments for pro-
lection made on the ground that it gives
our laborers $3O4.57 year. There is 31S
working days in year, barring holt
days with pay, so that the wage is less
than dollar day. Now farm la
borer at 500 month and board gets
$240 in money, and the board would,
even at low rate bring the total up
as high as that Of the cotton-mill ope-
rator. 1t is well known that the farm
laborer has no protection, and it is hard
to see how the cotton-mill operator
gets any benefit from it. Laborers in
many unprotected employments get
more than dollar day. Moreover,
the owners of cotton-mills import labor
ers free from foreign countries. If the
protective tariff makes prices of COM
modities Highland we know it does
why is there no tariff on imported la
Dor? That is the logic of protection to
labor by tariff, if it is to be done at
all, but the fact Of it is that it is not
intended to make labor high. The men
who make this argument in order to
get labor support are the same men
who import foreign labor to keep down
the price they must pay to laborers at
home. They are the men who sell to
customers in America steel rails for $2S
ton, and sell them abroad at $40 and
$22, making a big profit on an article
which confessedly costs about SIG. The
argument that protection makes high
wages is ridiculous falacy. They
have always been higher in America
than in Europe. But in Europe the
highest wages are paid in free-trade
England, and the countries where they
are the lowest have the most rigid sys-
tenn of protection.
