Gov Hughes will be beaten for re
election in New York by majority
ranging somewhere between fifty
thousand and eighty thousand. The
Republicans had to take him to save
the face Of their national ticket. 1t is
not merely that the Democrats would
under the circumstances poll their full
normal vote, insuring victory, bat
that the Republicans cannot hope to
poll more than seventy.tive per cent of
their normal vote. The personal hatred
and rivalry between Roosevelt and
Hughes is intense. If Hughes were
elected he would become the dictator
of Republicanism both in the Nation
and in the state of New York. The
bosses cannot stand for that. Az for
the independents they will generally
vote the Democratic ticket this year.

WAGES AND COST OF LIVING.

The July report of the Bureau Of La
Dor shows that in 1907 wages in the
principal manufacturing and mechan-
ical industries were 81 per cent. higher
than in 1906, while the retail prices Of
food were 40 per cent, higher. The
purchasing power of an hours wages
was less by per cent. than in 1906.
These facts have been published he.
fore. The status of wages and the cost
of food, however, in 1907 are Of less in.
terest than those of the current year.
Nearly five sixths Of the year 1907 was
one of great apparent prosperity. 1t
WAS only in October that the financial
disturbance began, and this had in
many cases, no immediate effect on
wages The effects of the panics were
mostly felt during the current year.
There is, perhaps, a sinister purpose
behind the repeated publication Of fig.
ures which show very small percent
age of incease in the cost of living above
that Of wages They withdraw atten.
ton from the still greater decrease in
wages in the present year, and not
merely that, but the immense number
of persons who are out of employment
There will not be much disposition in
official circles to deal with the question
Of wages and the cost of living this year
until after the election.
The Republican party might well ar
que that il was not responsible for the
panic and its consequences were it not
that its leaders have repeatedly one
may say constantly, asserted and re.
peated that bad times come while the
Democratic party is in power and that
the rule of the Republicans is uniformly
attended with prosperity. This is his
torcally false, but IA it had been true
of the Republicans for several years
past the masses Of the wol kingmen
were deuded and accepted the state
ments az quite justified. However, the
Republicans have not only taken credit
for the prosperity that the country en-.
ioyed under this rule, but having laid
it down ~ principle that prosperity
WAS the necessary result of the dom.
nance of their party, they are estopped
from asserting that the bad times which
began last October are in no way to be
attributed to Republican policy
IL has been 80 much a matter of
course for the Republicans to claim
credit for all prosperity which the coun-
try enjoys and to lay on the Democrats
the blame for adversely that they still
allow themselves to use this line of rea.
soning although they must be aware
that it no longer makes an impression
But the answers of employees that have
lost their jobs are pretty certain to lay
upon the party in power the blame for
their want OF employment. They have
been educated to hold the party in power
responsible for bad times and are likely
to do so this year. Whenever we adopt
the principle that the passage of law
creates prosperity we establish rela,
ton between business and politics which
is not entirely correct, but the people
will hold the authors Iof the sentiment
to rigid account
