The Cost of Living in New York.
From Hurpor'u Weekly

Economy is nothing but poverty In New
York, by contrast with the abnormal de-
mands thai living involves. Spending so
cents for breakfast, going without lunch
con, and paying a dollar for dinner is
economy for a single man. A breakfast
tina costs 80 cents and a dinner 60 cents
Is poverty. The boarding house life is
poverty; the lodging house life is some
thing worse. and the ordinary life in a
lat IL voluntary servltude. -
Socioloeists claim that the owest pos
slble yearly expense for a w%orkingman
with a wife and three children. embedding
a normal standard OF living, is $3.50. The
abatement was made recently by the New
York department OF charities that the
average laborer's family in New York is
existing on about 500 q year. The mini
mum rate OF rent on the East Side for
the barest decencies is - a month. Coal
costs from 10 to 10 cents a pail. a fabu-
lous price when estimated by the ton.
Yet between this poverty and the econ
omy'' of the small salaried employee who
is compelled to adjust his earnings to
the demands of his occupation there is
small difference. We live in New York
BY the cost, rather thai value Of things.
An apple purchased on Fifth avenue costs
twice as much as the same apple bought
on Fourteenth street. The dollar Dowery
shirt costs twice as much on Broadway.
This is the city where they pay the
price"
The self-indulgent man who spends $500
a day has not saved his money out of
his wages. The woman who could not
| manage her household for a season on
less than $4,000 is not the daughter or
the wife OF a wage Garner. Economical
beginners really ave no actual relation
| to the existing problem of living in New
York.
What does 1t cost to live In New York?
| More than you can ever hope to earn
in wages; and, SO far as the chances OF
speculation are concerned. that infers the
necessity of pull" If you haven't a
pull social or political or financial. your
speculative chances are slight. Obviously
this state of restless endurance is demon
alizing. 1t undermines character. Pres
entity you find yourself following the pro-
cession of people who are living beyond
their means. because they seem to be en-
Toying themselves at 1t.
The only way to live within your in
come in New York is to become blind to
the very e~xtravagances and allurements
that make this the metropolis, and to
sacrifice the pleasures OF temptation 70,
the comforts of an honorable old age.

A holiday Of a week has been declared

The unoficlal explanation made by the
Judges Is that they have been working

for FIVE parts Of General Sessions Under
the prosent arrangement they are not

There have been many complaints that
The Tombs was crowded and that prisoners
aid not get speedy trial. 1t is true that the

ney'k office now numbers l,2i2 cases ~
compared with 7S5 last year. Since the
frst Of the year an effort has been made
20 reduce the number Of prison cases and
10 bring old bail cases TO trial. This has
been sucoessful, but a weeks adjournment
will mean that tho criminal business will
DO clogged again,
No one in the District Attorneys once
would make any complaint OF the action
taken by the Judges. Assistant District
Attorney Mott, who is In charge OF the
once while Mr.. Jerome is defending the
charges against him, said:
we have succeeded in getting things I'M

NO CHANGE OF HEART.

The numerous and varied declara-
tions Of the Republicans concerning
tariff revision really indicate no change
Of heart. They are evidences OF q cam
paiRn scare. The men who make them
are trying to keep Mr.. W. j. Bryan
and the Democrats from winning votes
on that issue. Whatever they do will
be campaign tricks only. They will
appoint a commission to sit all sum-
mer and to take evidence if they be-
come convinced that they can in that
way mislead voters.
They have a record of evasion and
false pretenses in tariff matters. They
hesitate to even put paper made from
wood pulp on the free list, and yet that
is but one of a thousand outrageous
robberies shut up in the Dingley bill
for the enrichment of the few.
At the most, they are committed to
action after March 4, 1909, and that ac-
ton may be out a maximum tariff piled
on top of the Dingley scheme. The voter
will not be misled by a party thai has
q record of eleven years of false pre-
lenses.
The tariff will not be materially
changed by the Republicans if they
win another victory in November.
That victory would be the result of a
huge fund contributed in great part by
tariff b~enefciaries, andi it will be swelled
perhaps by the shrewd action of a COM
mission sitting during the coming sum-
.mer.
The voter who desires to be relieved
OF the heavy taxes Of Dingleyism will
not vote the Republican ticket. He
has been misled and deceived many
times, but in November his eyes will
DE wide open and no talk about high
wages and prosperity will be accepted
in the light of a panic that Republican
Ism permitted to spring up.
