Why notP
Berger thinks that corporations
should bear their fair share Of
taxes. He doesn't talk of punt
tive taxes, or con6scatory taxes,
just fair taxes.
Why not?
Berger thinks the city should
pay more attention to public health
and less to private graft and profit.
he thinks that the. city at its
own expense should fight epidemics
of eye diseases.
He believes that free doctors for
school children would be a oombi-
nation Of humanity and real econ
omy.
Why notP
Berger believe that rookeries,
vile tenements that breed disease,
should be torn down, and the dis.
ease germs wiped out.
That's common sense.
Berger thinks that the city ought
to give some legal protection to
citizens too poor or too ignorant to
defend themselves against injus-
tice. He believes that the law and
the courts ought to be not mere
agencies for producing lawyers
fees, but Ravens of refuge, where
the poor would be protected.
He points out what is absolutely
the fact, that poor man without
money in law court to-day is a
ridiculous, pitiable object.
It wouldn't be very bad if the
poor could have justice cheap or
for nothing would itP
incidentally, Berger and his
friends promise a sane, cautious,
conservative administration.
And the men Of Milwaukee that
have accumulated millions show
no sign Of Chicago Ameri-
can.

MILWAUKEE SOCIALISTS


A majority Of the voters Of Mil
waukee-a well-behaved, prosper.
GUS and intelligent city-have put
the socialist party in charge Of
city affairs.
That is to say, Victor I. Berger,
head Of the socialist party in Mil
waukee, and by far the most con-
spicuous and able of the socialist
party in the United States, has
been put in charge Of the city ad-
ministration by the election of the
ticket named by him or with his
approval.
Mr.. Berger himself is elected
alderman-at-large.
1t is rather interesting to find
some of the most conservative bus
mess men of Milwaukee express
ing perfect satisfaction with the
result of this election.
Before the election, many of the
biggest Milwaukee business men
including at least two of the great
est brewers had expressed them
selves privately in admiration of
Mr.. Berger and his character and
purposes.
Now dozens of such men express
their confidence in the socialist adj
ministration that has been elected
even while expressing some fear
as to things that Socialism may
lead TO-"
Mr.. Berger has announced the
policy of the socialists just elected,
and we are bound to say that in
his program there's very little that
smells Of gunpowder, or a riot. or
any kind of disturbance.
Mr.. Berger demands public own
ership of public utilities. And he
advises that such ownership be
brought about by the ballot
through the Legislature.
Nothing very anarchistic about
that!
Nh. Berger considers the con-
tract system a. bad. He says it
gives to contractors what ought to
60 to workmen and encourages
oorruption-a good deal of common
sense in that.
Mr.. Berger thinks that poor peo-
pie ought to get the benefit of
cheap ice, and that a city on the
side Of lake that is clogged with
ice all winter might we'll build a
municipal ice house and put some
of the ice away. for summer use!
That strikes Us a. a good hint
for Chicago, situated just like
Milwaukee.
Berger thinks that education is
highly important; that the public
schools stand first among the
creators OF better conditions In the
future. He wants books and other
school supplies furnished free to

SAYS COST OF LIVING RISE
EXCEEDS WAGE INCREASE

LOS ANGELES, April 1.-[Editor
Herald: The real cost of an article
is that portion of labor, time physical
or mental, which is expended in order
to secure the article. Wages represent
the market value of labor-time and
while wages may differ in different
countries for the same work, the real
cost of a commodity, or labor-time re-
quired, may be the same. For in
stance, if John Doe in the United
States receives 50 a day and five
pounds of rice cost so cents, one-fourth
of a days labor, while Richard Roe
in Japan or China receives 81 and five
pounds of rice costs % cents, one
fourth of has days wages, the real cost
is the same in both cases.
Commodities are advanced in cost
by either reducing wages or raising
the price of an article. John Does
wages are cut to S150, the rice now
costs one-third Of his wages, or the
rice is advanced to 661a cents while
John still gets 50. The result is the
same.
The fundamental reason for advance
in the cost OF commodities is the cheap
ness of labor, and whether this takes
the form Of high prices or reduction
of wages depends on the cost of pro-
ducing the means of exchange, which
is gold. A plentiful supply of gold
and improved mining processes have
cheapened gold. Improved machinery
and a plentiful supply of laborers have
cheapened the purchasing power of la
bor-time. Therefore wages have not
advanced to meet the rise in prices
which would have been the case if labor
had not been cheapened. If gold had
not become cheaper wages would have
been reduced as labor-time decreased
in value.
1t can thus be seen that the present
economic conditions result in the
cheapness of labor as the fundamental
cause of advanced cost of living and
that it is owing to a large supply Of
gold that this is manifested i'm high
prices. WILLIAM a. DELL.

IOURNALISM'S LOSS

nY THE sad and unexpected death
X of Robert W. Patterson, editor-in-
H chief of the Chicago Tribune,
American journalism has lost one of it's
best exponents and representatives,.
Here was a sane, healthy-minded man,
well informed, experienced and original
who believed the function of a paper
was not to pander to depraved tastes,
but to instill by example, suggestion
and selection instruction that would be
profitable.
Some American papers have rounded
a wide circle, and gone back to the be-
ginning of things journalistic, when the
biggest liar or the most adroit dis
torter of truth was the most renowned
newspaper man.
The function of responsible modern
editors, from Greeley's day TO the pres
ent time, has been TO try to inform
American journalism with the spirit OF
Americanism; and to report untoward
events in the discerning spirit of far
seeing men who know they are not
necessary" evils, and in time will be
overcome or eliminated by the removal
from American life of the causes which
produce them.
CLEAN UP-AND LOOK UP" is
the motto Of progressive and conscien-
tious Journalists, whose profession by
the death Of Mr. Patterson has suf-
fered loss only exceeded by the pub
lies loss.
