1900 Peter ]. Ford one OF the leading Democrats
and business in this city and State won the
Democratic nomination for Governor His Republican
opponent John Hum. OF Kent county. Ford was
defeated He emerged from that losing fight with the
Democratic knife in his back although that knife
not the determining factor in the Campaign. Certain
classes OF Democrats found pleasure in his defeat
In 1912 Thomas NJ Monaghan another leading DEM
ociat and business man, also succeeded in winning
the Democratic nomination for Governor His Re
publican opponent Charles r. Miller Once more
the Democratic knife brought into play Mon
Afghan like Ford went down TO defeat with the hilt
OF that knife protruding from his political back He
was the only candidate the Democratic State ticket
who suffered defeat
Each had had notice served upon him that
while he and his friends might assist in eectng
other Democrats to the high Office of Governor he
might as we'll give up all aspiration in that direction.
The Democratic bars were up against him and his
knd-too high to be climbed over too close TO crawled
through and too low to be crawled under
Since those two political assassinations occurred
however. those Democratic leaders and voters who
We're directly or indirectly responsible them never
have failed to call upon the friends of the two dis
tinguished victims to elect other Democrats to high
Office.
They are doing IL now, Notwithstanding the fact
that the Democratic crimes against Ford in 1900 and
Monaghan in 1912 still fresh in the minds OF the
Ford Democrats and Monaghan Democrats They
are doing it, too in the face of the fact that
many OF the men who were instrumental in bringing
about the nomination of Josiah o. Wolcott for United
States Senator Albert Polk for Representative in
Congress and James H. Hughes for Governor are the
very men who knitted Ford TO the vals IN 1900 and
Monaghan to the vitas in 1912.
They are redhanded with those crimes against reg
uarly-nominated Democratic candidates and no one
knows it better than do the friends Of Mr. Ford and
Mr. Monaghan who now being importuned to as
sist in eectng the candidates OF those political as
sassins.
Those men who encompassed the defeat OF Ford
and Monaghan and who have brought about the
nomination OF Wolcott. Polk and Hughes do not hes-
tate to assert that, in this election the friends of Ford
and Monaghan will "all in line swallow both their
resentment and the ticket" It may be that they will
do Time alone will show what extent they have
forgotten those two political crimes and to what ex
tent they willing to compound those two political
felonies.

Europe's Producing Power
Lille Affected by War
(From Financial America.)

Exception to the common idea that
the numbers of the killed and perma
nently injured in the present war are
50 large as seriously to affect the pro-
ducing power of Europe after the war
was taken last night by W. $. Kies, a
vice president of the National City
Bank of New York, in an address be-
for the Chamber of Commerce of the
Borough of Queens. New York,
THE fallacy of this view," said Mr..
Kes. 'is demonstrated by a study Of
the facts. The latest available figures
on losses of the war. including those
killed and permanently incapacitated,
place those losses at approximately
100000 persons. These figures are
extremely liberal. and are based in
reports from both camps. A study Of
the net gain in population in each Of
the countries at war shows the an
nual average of net increase in popu-
lation to be little over 100000 per
annum. OF this number approximate
ly one-half are males. and it might,
therefore. be assumed that the mum
Der of males belonging to she coun-
tries at war, who have come into the
age of manhood, and therefore Of
availability for industrial pursuits, is
100000 per annum, or 100000 dur
ing the two years OF the war. The ac-
tual number of males available, there
fore, for industrial pursuits in Eur
ope at the close of the war will be
greater than at the beginning of the
war
Further than this we know that
in Germany a very large percentage
Of the women Of the country have
been trained to take the places of the
men who are at the front In some
of the large manufacturing establish
ments as high as IS per cent. of those
employed are women. The same thing
is true i'm France and England.
These women have been taught to do
machine work Of all kinds-they are
working on the farms, on the rail-
roads. in the workshops. and in the
factories.
Another element of importance,
which has been largely overlooked in
this country. is the great gain in etfi-
cheney and the increase in the pro-
duction per individual in the indus
tries of England and France. and we
the case in Germany. The labor
unions OF England have adopted
broader policy and have waived. in
most instances. their rules which
were restrictive of production.
'"The industries OF France, England
and Germany are today practically
operating under State control. The
effect of military discipline has been
and in the future will be in the di-
rection of greater efficiency and great
er production.
There is one other facs to be con-
sidered. The warning countries have
accumulated great debts-they have
sent hundreds Of millions Of dollars
worth of gold TO this country for sup
plies and materials, and their gold
reserves have been depleted Their
first task after the war is ended viii
be to rehabihtate their shattered gold
to re-establish their credit,
Evening journal., 1916-11-01

and to build up their wealth This
can only be done through the expor-
( tatlon of goods. 1t will be their ma
tional ambition to produce on the
largest possible scale, to consume as
little as possible, and to export every
thing that can find a market anywhere
in the world. The goods which will
be offered for export will be sold in
the markets OF the world at a price
which will make them sell, because
their sale is a national necessity.
The industries of Europe are keyed
up at the present time to a point of
greatest efficiency. II is reasonable
TO suppose that there will be any
slackening OF effort, any falling off
IN enthusiasm. or any lessenng of
energy in the work of restoring and
rebuilding that which the war has de-
stroyed2'
OF the labor situation as related to
the war. Mr.. Kies said:
1T is unquestionably right that for
the welfare of society the hours of
labor for the wage worker should be
reduced wherever possible to eight
hours 1t is probably true, although
we have no convincing data upon the
subject that the laborer can do better
work and that his productive capa-
city per hour is greater provided his
working day is eight hours. But the
present S most inOpportune for such
a movement The wage workers Of
Europe are not counting time in their
efforts in behalf of their country.
They are giving ungrudgingly Of their
strength and viii continue to do so in
the work of rehabilitation and restO-
ration. The particular vlciOusness Of
the recent labor legislation lies in
the demoralizing influence upon labor
in general. in that it encourages n
most short-sighted view of the prob
lem. which. if it becomes general, will
result in disaster not alone to labor.
but to the entire country. To pro-
vide by law that a small class Of the
highest paid laborers in the country
shall receive ten hours pay for eight
