AOmfniItec.
NEW YORK, Aug. 3O.-Have you
ever stopped to think where the mini
mum wage" proposition Of the Third
Term party leads to? Do you know
what it means and where it will end
The Third Term platform asserts that
minimum wage commissions should be
established to determine the
standard which the public ought to
sanction as a minimum" To the wage
Garner who is underpaid that sounds
peculiarly attractive So does the
promise of health to the sick man But
it is an old adage that all is not gold
that sliCters." and this applies as often
TO economic remedies as to patent med
icines. The proposition in its simplest
terms is that the government should fix
rate of wages less than which no
employer would be permitted to pay
Governments are controlled by political
parties, so that il also means that
political party would fix the lowest
wage which any employer could pay.
Now, what would that lowest wage
be? That of course, would have to de-
pend on the political party. The Re
publican party. if 1T continued to hold
it's national convention first. would fix
the minimum wage for an eight hour
day of an able bodied man. for instance,
at SO. Then the Democratic party would
hold its convention. 1t would be OBJ
the rate equally high. But the Demo
cratic party. like other parties, is al
ways anxious to do more in it's plat
form than hold its own. 1t wants to
win supporters from the other parties
To do this it would naturally fix the
minimum wage for which il stood at
$3.50 day. Then would come an in
dependent party and it would raise the
minimum to 81 d day. for unskilled
labor, other "minimums" in proportion,

labor receiving such reward but would

labor cost IS for an eight-hour day,
skilled labor would have to be paid in
proportion if men were to continue to
take the trouble to become skilled la
borers. The skillful brickmason who
now receives three times the rate paid
to the unskilled laborer would demand
that his wage be three times greater,
or SIS a day. Even suppose. for sake
of argument. that these rates of wages
were fixed at one election. where would
