NO ADVANCE IN OPERATING
COSTS ACCOUNT EMPLOYEES

Any advances in operating costs of
the railroads have not been due to
added OUTLAWS to transportation en-
ployes. Train and engine crews have
given to the transportation compan-
les more than they have received in
increased rates of pay This fact is
clearly shown by the reports of the
railroads themselves to their stock
holders and to the Interstate Com
merce Commission. Although engi-
neers, firemen, conductors and train
men have received some advances in
rates of pay during recent years, they
have had to work harder, and have
handled more traffic each year for
each dollar of additional compensa-
ton received.
transportation employees are piece
workers. They are engaged in hand
ling freight and passenger traffic.
The requirement for a standard davis
work is to haul so many tons of
freight or so many passengers 100
miles. If the weight of freight
train is increased the cost to the rail
roads for labor in handling each ton
OF freight 100 miles is less. ~
The constant increasing of train
loads has been the predominant fac
tor in recent railway operating pro-
gress. The growth in weight of trains
has been more rapid than the adj
vances in rates of pay to transporta-
ton employees. Engine and train
crews have transported proportionate-
ly a. greater volume of freight than
they have received increases in wages.
AS a consequence, the labor cost to
the railroads of engine and train
crews has decreased.
During the course of the recent ar
bitration between the Western rail-
roads and their engineers and fire.
men, it is shown that the proportion
OF total operating expenses arising
from payments to transportation en-
pioyes was IA per cent less in 1918
than in 1900. In 1918 it was also
shown that wage payments to trans
portation employees required only 10
cents out Of each dollar revenue earn
ed by Western railroads in 1913 as
compared with 2l cents out Of each

1t was famous old Ben Butler, who
presented the unanswerable argu-

CHILD LABoR LEGISLATION

President Wilson has once more de-
monstrated his loyalty to the just de-
mands of organized labor in going
before the Senators of his party and
urging the adoption of the child labor
law at this session of Congress. This
legislation is necessary for the adj
vancement of humanity. The control
OF child labor, the prevention of the
employment of children in gainful
pursuits for long hours is one of the
essential propaganda Of labor union
ism. President Wilson is inviting
opposition from southern Democratic
Senators, for in the South colored
children and the children of the poor
whites are exploited as no where else
on the civilized globe. The President
is recognized as great party leader
and has succeeded in forcing through
Congress program of constructive
legislation never before equalled in
the history of the Nation.
1t is to be hoped that he will be as
successful in this new endeavor and
will be able to secure legislation of
IN advanced and humane character in
the prohibition of child labor We pin

in THE poLfrIcAL FIELD

The political lineup in Idaho is be-
ginning to shape itself so that pre-
dictions can be made with more or
less safety and to pass away an idle
hour The Gem Worker will take a
glance through the horoscope. Gov
ernor Alexander will be renominated
by the Democrats without opposition
and will go before the public on his
record. T. A. Walters, of Caldwell,
will be named for Attorney General
again on account of the fine race he
made two years ago, when he was de-
feated by Peterson by a scratch. J..
w. Tanner, of Filler, will be given the
nomination of Lieutenant-G Governor
and this is as far as it is safe to pre-
dict for the Democrats.
With the Republicans it appears to
lis that D. w. Davis, the American
Falls business man. will get fully
fifty per cent of the primary vote,
leaving other fifty per Cent to be di-
vided among his three opponents.
This would make him an easy victor
in the primaries. Mr. Davis presents
a plan for making Idaho a "tax1ess
State" by the turning into cash of the
land resources of the commonwealth,
the money to be loaned on real es-
tate security and the proceeds devoted
to paying expenses.
For the Congressional nominations
two to be named-it looks as though
Addison T. Smith would be renom-
mated by large vote, but for the
other place a close race is on, with
the present incumbent, Robert Nc
Cracker contesting against former
Congressman Burton L. French and
State Senator f. E. Elliot of Bon
ner's Ferry Elliott is being support
ed by fully one-half of the party press
of northern Idaho and will split this
vote which has formerly been prac-
tically solid for French, so that Nc
Cracker may win.
For Attoreny-G General there is de-
veloping a lively contest, but senti-
ment has not sufficient crystallzed to
found any prediction upon. For State
Treasurer we would guess the renom-
ination of Eagleson, although many
of the party leaders are strong for
Fisk. For State Superintendent, Miss
Redfeld, backed by the present sup
erintendent, Miss Mccoy, is in the
lead at the present writing. Secre-
tary of State Barker is to have live
ly tussle to land a denomination as
he is being fought in an aggressive
manner by some men of great inhu-
ence. For State Auditor pretty con-
test is on between Lewis. Pankhurst
and Folsom, all new men.
As The Gem Worker is not a po-
litical organ it gives this review Gust
as it looks" and without any ak to
grind.

dollar of revenue in 1890. When con.
sidered on the basis of Freight ton
mage, it was found that is cost the rail-
roads for wages to locomotive enei-
neers and irement 65 cents for each
ton carried one mile in 1890 while
in 1913, engineers and fremen trans
ported 1000 tons one mile for only
s. cents, a decrease of cost to the rail-
roads for these employees alone. dur
ing this period, of slightly more than
SO per cen. 1t was also shown fur
Their by exhibits submitted during the
Western Arbitration that during the
more recent years, 1o0O-1ol3, the cost
to the transportation companies for
wages of engineers and firemen de-
creased II per cent for each 1000 tons
OF freight hauled one mile.
1t is apparent from these facts that
the productive efficiency of transnor.
tation employees has increased faster
than their rates of pay. To produce
these results for the railroads they
have had to work excessive hours
Inc present movement for an eight
hour day is, therefore, a reasonable
request by transportation employees
to participate in the results of their
own labor, not primarily in terms of
dollars and cents but in form of
shorter work day.

Emmitt Pfost has made good as
Sheriff and is entitled to reelection.
He has conducted the office abso-
lutely without any favoritism and in
a manner above criticism. The Gem

tisan brand an official may bear and
this spirit is growing among the peo-
pie at large and we predict will car
