Why Labor Is Scarce.

Here is one reason which you may
have overlooked why labor is growing
scarcer every day in the United States :.
We have now in Pennsylvania alone
225, 1000 automobiles. One-third of them
are pleasure cars driven by chauf-
feurs, an army of $4,000 able-bodied
men removed entirely from produc-!
tive work.
The army of pleasure car chauffeurs
in the whole country must exceed half
a million men-all nOnproducers. In
deed, there is another great big army
of men building pleasure cars to be
operated by these other nonprOducers
of essentials.
They used to complain in Germany
that every taxpayer had to carry SOL
der on his back. We vary it in the
United States by carrying a chauffeur.
on our backs, says "Girard" in the
Philadelphia Ledger.

Therefore If you want to keep healthy

their prohibitory laws.
"Thus "a states out of 48-one-half
of the states of the UniOn-have now
declared for statewide prohibition

Farm Vote the Factor.
There are several great outstanding
facts concerning the result of the cleo
tiOn. one of which Is that labor, in all
the big industrial states except Ohio,
declined to give it's undivided support
to President Wilson despite his claim
to it on the score of having persuaded
! congress to pass the Adamson "eight-
hour" bill. New York, Pennsylvania,
Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, In
diana, all gave the Republican candi-
date pluralities, and Ohios vote in ia
vor of Wilson is not certainly to be at
tributed to the labor vote.
Another interesting development was
the independence of the West, which is
asserting that it elected president
without the aid Of New York and Penn
sylvania and other big western and
central states. When it was found,
early in the evening of election day.
that the empire state had gone for
Hughes, the newspapers of the metrop-
oils. even those that had supported
Wilson, conceded the victory to the
Republicans, without waiting to hear
from the middle West. When the re-
turns came in from these regions, 1t
was found that the farmer and stock
raiser had decided the election.
Yet another fact that calls for COM
ment is that Governor Johnson Of CAL
ifornia, running on the Republican and
Progressive tickets, has been elected to
the United States senate by something
like 100000 plurality, and yet the state
went Democratic on the presidency.

the price of s63.40 per ton which it
brought is an advance of So cents per
ton over the price received for the
last lot, which went at $62.77. The
eight cars will hold probably 200 tons
of seed, which will bring. in round
numbers, about $12,680.
At the prices accepted for 1,o4S

due are collected and turned into the

Capitol Commission Must Pay.

Capitol Commission Must Pay.
Attorney General Collins has made
ruling forbidding the penitentiary
trustees from allowing payment to
guards and for maintenance of prison
ers while employed on the reconstrNc-
ton of the old capitol building. The
ruling of the attorney general follows:
81 beg to advise you that l am OF the
opinion that under the act of 1916 Of
the legislature. authorizing the use of
convict labor to perform certain work
incident to the repairs and restoration
of the old capitol building, it was the
intention Of the legislature that any
expenses incurred in using the con-
victs over and above the usual ex-
pense of maintaining them at the state
penitentiary should be borne by the
funds in charge of the old capitol COM
mission, and not by the penitentiary.
at therefore follows that if the sal
aries of these two officers are incurred
merely by keeping these convicts at
the work when they would not have
been otherwise required, the peniten-
tiary should not bear the expense OF
their salaries"
Owing to this squabble between the
two boards, each of whom insists that
it is certainly right, the officers about
whose services the difference of Off.
cial opinion has arisen have been with
out salaries for several months.
