GEAR
BREAKS DOWN

The ferryboat Tottenville of the
Staten Island Rapid Transit Com
pany ferry was put out of cimmis-
sion Saturday afternoon by the
breaking down of the steam steer
ing gear. The accident happened
when the traffic across the sound
had just about reached its height
The big ferryboat was on it's way
from Tottenville to this city and
was loaded down with automobiles
and passengers. The boat was half
way across. 1t was turned around
and the other steering gear was
used. After making the slip IN
this city and the boat was on It's way
back to Tottenville, the steering
gear on the other end Of ths ferry-
boat was put out of commission art
the craft drifted helplessly around
the river. A signel from the Tot
tenville brought the tug Jacob
Heath, of the Arthur XIII Towing
Company, TO its assistance. After
letting the passengers and automo-
biles off at Tottenyille, the ferryboat
was towed to the Raritan Dry Docks
where repairs were made and the
ferryboat was back running again
Sunday morning.
Traffic on the Tottenville side was
tied up during all of Saturday after
noon and for a time more than fifty
machines were lined up in Bentley
street, that place. because the ferry
boat Perth Amboy could not carry
them fast enough. 1t is estimated
that more than 1000 automobiles
passed over the ferry during the
past three days. Over 900 were car
ried yesterday alone. The Totem
vile was laid up at the Raritan Dry
Dock last night and was put on
again this morning to relieve the
Perth Amboy, which carried over
manN ON the earlV trims.

ADVANCE OF LABOR.
Condition of tho Workingman Vastly
Improved In Past Century.

Improved In Past Century.
1t would be folly to insist that the
social system Of the day is ideal But
any man who reads history knows
that the condition of the working
man today is infinitely better than il
was century ago.
Whatever other causes have been
at work to bring about this change,
much of it must be attributed to trade
unionism.
There has been steady progress like
the Irresistible sweep of mighty
J river. Eddies have been formed
which seem to mark the backward
course of the stream. The pessimist
has seen the eddy and points to it as
an indication that there has been only
backward movement Indifferent to
the fact that the flood just beyond
reveals true progress
| He has forgotten that only a few
centuries ago half the world lived in
slavery and human life was counted
so cheap that men and women were
killed for sport. Speak to him of the
progress made by working people and
he will fling into your face the bitter
argument of the anarchist. unmind-
| full of the day when labor was con
sidered degrading and dlshonorabe,
when the philosophers declared that
purchased laborer Is better than II
hired one; when the workingman lived
In small, dingy, foul smelling room;
when he slept in cellars and over open
| drains; when men worked sixteen
hours a day the year round without
being paid for the overtime"
He has forgotten the time when man
ufacturers were actually paid to rid a
parish of pauper children. who then
became white slaves; when conditions
were so degrading that in many cases
full grown men remained at home car
ing for the babies or mending stock
ings while the women were engaged at
the wearing work of the mill; when it
was q crime to increase the working
mans wages above certain amount;
when the workingman could be put
into Jail for owing storekeeper 10
cents.
The condition of the skilled Ameri
can workingman today is superior to
that of the royalty of three centuries
ago He has a better home. more con-
veniences, more books. more of the
things that make life worth the living
The increase in wages. the shorten
ing of his hours of work, the multiple
cation of his comforts, his new educa.
tional advantages, his superior posi-
ton as q citizen and as man-all
these have made the average working
man a progressive, right thinking hui
man being.-Rev. Charles Sickle.
