WAGES IN ENGLAND.
Summary of Results from a Parlia-
mentary Investigation.


Consul Albert Halstead of Birm-
ingham, reports that a parliamentary
paper by the labor department of the
board of trade on changes in rate
of wages and hours of labor in the
United Kingdom in 1906 refers to
the first half of 1907 as we'll as in a
preliminary fashion. In this respect
the report says:
During the first six months of
1907 the changes in rates of wages
reported continued to show an up
ward movement, there being net in
creases in all groups of trades. AL
together 1,15O,O29 work people were
reported to have had their wages
changed, of whom 1,149,S25 work
people had a net increase of $524,S1S
per week and 204 a net increase of
1922 per week. Thus the net effect
of all the changes was an increase
of $524,696 per week, compared with
a net increase of $129.390 per week
in the corresponding period of 1906.
The most important changes in rates
of wages reported during the six
months were increases in. the coal
mining and textile industries. The
former affected work people en-
ployed in all the principal coal-min-
ing districts in Great Britain. In
the textile group advances took place
in the wages of $4,000 card and
blowing room operatives, spinners,
doublers, reelers, winders, warpers
etc, employed in cotton manufacture
in Lancashire Cheshire. West Rid
ing of Yorkshire, and Derbyshire; of
41.700 jute operatives, preparers, etc,
in the north of Ireland. The major
ity of the other work people affected
were in the metal and engineering
trades. Work people in government
departments. the police, agricultural
laborers, seamen, and railway SER
wants are not included in the fore
going figures.
The changes reported during the
first half of 1907 show that 6106
work people have had reduction in
hours amounting in the aggregate to
1924 hours per week. while 466
work people have had their aggregate
working time increased by 1905 hours
per week
In 1906 the net result Of all changes
in wages reported to the labor de-
partment was an advance of $751;

! More people succumb each year to
some form of kidney trouble than any
other cause. The slightest form OF

into Bright's kidney disease, diabetes

for adults is a teaspoonful after each

There is no better general remedy

Idaho VIII Allow No More Marriages
OF Youths Under IS Years OF Age.
Maidens of the state of Idaho, who
are contemplating matrimony, but
who have not yet attained their 18th
year. will receive solar piexus blow
blow when they learn that the county
attorneys of the state OF Idaho. in
recent session have decided that no
marriage license shall be issued to
persons under IS years or age, says
the Lewiston Teller.
The question was under discussion
during the greater portion of the time
the attorneys were In session here,
and all features of the law regulating
such matters were carefully looked
into. The result of the Investigations
was the decision above, and county
auditors are now being served with
the notices to the effect that no more
licenses are to be issued to persons
under Is years of age.
1t was also decided that applicants
for licenses must have at least two
witnesses to identify them to the
county auditor before a license will
be issued.
Under the former Interpretation
of the law the licenses were issued
to minors when consent was given by
the parents or guardians. In one
instance the records show a license
was issued where a girl 1S years of
age was one of the applicants, but
under the new ruling the consent of
parents or guardian will only be
available where the prospective groom
is between the ages of 81 and IS.

Pendleton, Jan. 15.-(Editor East

your editorial upon Peace, which ap-
peared in your issue Of the 14th and
am much encouraged in the arduous
task l have imposed upon myself
in finding my own views and deeply
rooted convictions so clearly express

You say: THE germ and essence
Of peace and contentment lies in the
Individual breast; that we cannot
hope to have universal peace and un-
selfishness from a nation of warning,
selfish individuals" Just so; but let
us remember the words of Carlyle.
He tells us that ALL reform, like
charity, must begin at home. There
is no other reform possible. Now,
my dear sir, this is just what the
gentlemen who organized the Nation

lied and this is just what the organ

nored, hence its ignominious failure
to carry out its seeming intent, a
failure, the cause of which is so clear
ly shown and graphically described
by yourself when you say: "These
men stand up in the meeting and
eloquently plead for industrial peace
and then go to their down town Of
fices and make war upon their own
employees, upon rival corporations
and mankind in general"
Here, Mr.. Editor, you have struck
the keynote of every i'll that afflicts
the body polite today; the insincer-
ity of man.
sincerity; thou first of virtues,
Let no mortal ever leave thy onward
path
Though earth may cape, and from

1t is strictly upon these high and |

this end our directors have began at |
