Every public act OF utterance OF Mr.
Taft on matters which have to do
with labor convince in advocacy Of
equality before the law his upright
ness and absolute fairness. There is
no vote catching effort IN what he
does. Moreover, there is no equivoca-
ton in stating his position. In re-
cent communication in response to In
quiry he says:
81 favor, SO far as settling Industrial
disputes is concerned. the maintenance
of an official commission for the OFF,
cIaI investigation. at the instance of
the executive, into the merits Of the
controversy and their publication OF
course this could be accompanied by
u voluntary submission to the decision
OF the arbitration, but the investiga7
ton I would have made at any rate
and the report published. The force
of public opinion is generally strong
enough to bring about a peaceful re-
suit"

panhandle Pete" the latest OF all
cartoon musical comedies
will strive for honors at the Grand
opera house Monday, October 26.
Judging from the field the author has
had to work from, this latest concoc-
tfon should eclipse all former efforts
in the field of newspaper cartoon
plays. As this series of comic car
toons for which George McManus is
responsible and which has been the
feature cartoon of the Sunday comic
supplement- OF the New Fork World
for the last two years has furnished
more amusement to the readers OF
newspapers throughout the United
States than any other cartoon series
ever published. Willard Holcomb
who Is responsible for the book, has
written several popular successes in
the past, among which are New York
Town, Rufus Rastus and Me. Him
and / In Panhandle Pete" he ac-
knowIedges to have put his best ef-
forts in three swift moving acts,

Cheap Labor Makes Cheap Living.
The pessimist still complains about
the high price in food products and
tries to make it appear that the ad-
vance in wages in the last ten years
has not been commensurate with the
increase in the cost of living. There
has been only one careful investigation
of this subject made, and that has
been by the bureau OF labor, which Is
composed of careful and conservative
Investigators, who have no partisan
bias In fact, they have been making
their investigations year by year ever
since the bureau was created under
the administration of Grover Cleye-
land, and their figures have been made
public in the labor bulletins every
year, so while they are applicable in
this discussion they were In no way
intended for use in political cam
paIgn.
Take the figures any way one pleases
to look at them. they show the error
of this assumption. Comparing the
last year Of 1905 with that OF 1894,
there was an increase OF AZ per cent
in the employees who had work and
wages; there was an increase Of 21,5
per cent in the average earnings per
hour; there was an Increase OF 1871
per cent in the average weekly earn
ings per employee, and there was an
average increase in the weekly earn
Ings Of all employees. On the other
hand, there was an Increase OF 1871
per cent in the retail prices OF food.
All the percentages on wages are
greater than the percentages of In
crease In tho cost of food. and only
the reckless assertions OF pessimists
stand against the careful investigation
of large number of trained experts,
who have no other purpose than to
carry on the work for which the bureau
of labor was created. 1t Is all very
well to complain of high prices and to
demand cheap food and cheap cloth
ing. But we had one era of cheapness
in this generation, and the cheapest
commodity then was labor. The last
Democratic administration came pref
ty near demonstrating that as an abb
solute truth. Labor was then 80 cheap
that men could not exchange it for
enough to-give them living. 1t was
a carnival of soup and rags. Today la
Dor is the dearest product in the mar
ket. 1t Is Just as well to be sober in
Judgment of these things when we
nre going to the polls to determine the
policy of the government for the next
four years DO we want cheap labor
or high priced labor? That Is the
question.

breaches Economic AdsurditleS In
Same Old Way.
Mr.. Bryan, who started ont very con-
ervativeIy at the opening OF the cam
paIgn, resolving evidently to get tho
confidence of certain editors and bust
ness men who could not stand his
aforetime radicaHsm, has broken
through the traces and given up trying
to be good His speech on the trusts
at Indianapolis puts him back In his
old position Of advocating the destruc-
ton Of anything that does not meet
his views without regard to method or
consequences.
As usual, he is not specific as to
what means should be employed to
carry out his designs. He simply In a
general way wants to destroy the so
called trusts, both large and small, re-
gardless of the consequences to otherS
engaged In similar business or Of the
consuming public. He tells us one day
that the American people should be al
lowed to purchase where they can buy
the cheapest, and another day he tells
US that the money from the pockets OF
the people Is flowing into the Golfers OF
the trusts If the latter be true it must
be because the people are buying
where they buy the cheapest, and If
the trust made goods are the cheapest
then they serve the consumer rather
than injure him.
Mr.. Bryan simply does not know
what u trust is. Mr.. Bryan does not
know how to handle financial prob
lens. Industrial problems or even po-
litical problems. We have on our stat
ute books today laws providing for the
machinery to punish any Ilegitimate
business and to remedy any tnequali-
ties or injustice. Mr.. Bryan has not put
forth any views showing how to Inn
prove present methods.
