To the Carpenter: Do you know
that taking as basis 227 establish
ments employing carpenters, and with
no reference to the thousands of your
fellow-craftsmen, who were out Of
work in 1896, you are receiving 52.5
per cent higher wages per hour than
you did in 1896, that these establish
ments afford work to 30.3 per cent
more men. and that your working day
has been reduced 1913 per cent? For
instance for every carpenter employed
in 1896, $50 were employed in the
same factories "a 1907, and for every
dollar paid your trade in 1896 $1.52k
was paid in 1907 for the same amount
of labor. Do you know that you can
buy for an hours wages in 1907 as
compared with 1896, 1853 per cent
more beef roasts, 25.S' per cent more
beef steak, 1874 per cent more salt
beef and ASS per cent more wheat
bread, even ii the price of corn to
feed the beef, and the wheat has gone
up? Do you know that you receive
from Is to Is cents an hour more than
the carpenter of Great Britain?

CAN'T GET OUT
OF THE GAME
Unless Central Association Directors
Consent to It-But the Threc-Eye
League Wants Quincy.

Kewanee Star: The only town
from another league that the Three
Eye wishes is Quincy, and which is
free to join the Three-Eye. Its fran
chise with the Central association
expired this year. Quincy is ready
and willing to make the change If
the Three-Eye will reduce the salary
limit. Other cities suggested in place
of Clinton are Davenport and Danville,
which will cost nothing to acquire.
Burlington Hawk-Eye: Club fran
chises with league do not expire.
They may elapse by reason of lack
of attendance. Quincy is a member
of the Central association as long as
that organization legally exists. The
only way it can get out is by a major
ity consent of the Central association
stockholders.
