1.-THE high cost of living, as have
said before, is worldwide. The aim
of the republican party is to see that
American workers are enabled to
meet the cost of living by keeping
employees at good wages. 1t is a sim
pie purpose, and as direct and prac-
teal as it is simple, and does not
need a volume of rhetoric to explain
it or get around it. While the cost
Of living, so far as most of the neces-
saries of life are concerned, is rot
so high here as in Europe, the wage
Garner here is getting from more
than double to six and seven times
the wages paid in Eur ope, and is in
that proportion better able to meet
any increase in the cost of living.

Governor Douglass of Massachusetts,

to be carried away in the current of

the valley, learning from experience
that there is much truth in the proverb,
The higher up the valley you go, the
bigger and redder the apples grow"
He first invested in an orchard at Mon
itor, short distance from Wenatchee,
sold out and bought at Dryden, ten
miles down the valley, again he sold
ont and eighteen months ago bought
his present place, three miles from
here. He said in conversation with a
reporter for this paper Monday that his
next move would probably be to Leav-
