BY B. A. PF.LKET. Walter at Oregon
Hotel.
Some lawmakera are Inclined to be
extremist In their aeal to paaa
oon a elected. For Inatance. If Mr.
Jonee I elected, h think It hi olemn
duty to hav a Jonee bill entitled an it -omethtng
introduced. Jut to how hi
constituent that h la on th Job. Bo
we are Informed that during the com
ing esslon of the Legislature certain
of our diplomat hav hit upon an antl
tlpplng law thai thy desire .annexed
tiitea to solve the high coat
of living. Thl proposed legislation 1
of great Importance to waltera. and
a on of that profeaalon I wish to mak
a few reraerke from our aiae.
On argument against thl alleged
vll come from no le a ourc than
th United Plate Henate. The Penatora
have a reataurant In the Capitol for
tha us of themselves and friend ex
clusively, and caused to be displayed In
a conspicuous plaoa a sign announcing
that waltr are not allowed to receive
tips. Now, In th writer' opinion thl
sign would b more appropriate In th
Senate chambar. If the Senator would
only atop taking tlpa themelve. or
earn them for real service a honestly
as do waiter, th country would b
better eerved.
Tlpa Ge W orld Over.
Tipping I cuatomary In all flrat-claa
houses, those patronised by the wealthy
the world over. The working classea
Invariably patronlxe the lower-class
houses whr thy don't tip. Walter
a a claa are poor o. why all thl
objection to th rich voluntarily giving
to tha poor? Th former certainly can
afford It. and the latter aurely need It.
Why haven't w th same right aa in
dividual. whn cltl reclve million
from Carnegie and Rockefeller? Be
side, we endeavor to glv value re
ceived In return for any little gratuity.
To the peraon from whom we receive
a tip we give added attention, such as
making suggestions aa to what I good
on the menu and seeing that It I prop
erly cooked and erved. Alao wa do
a hurdred little thing not required or
paid for by th management,
1 '.iav nver heard the higher elas.
or real tipping public the onea quali
fied to Judge, do any complaining. Par
hap It emanate from thoe who xpot
to b In oclty some day, and who
are trvlng to keep up appearance. If o,
I hop they attain their ambitions, for
when they are educated they will be
come good Roman.
Pabllc Will anr.
If tipping were stopped, and our
wage raised In consequence, a om
will advocate. Isn't It very evident that
th places so affected would meet tha
rise by raising prlceaf Ho. I fall to aee
any material difference to th public,
but will admit that th quarter coming
aa a tip lntead of salary will always
Insure the guest better service. Club
member will have to admit that point,
aiihoua-b tha writer believe that th
higher wag ytem and no tip In club
la proper. To promote equality j
can't treat th general public on that
basis, for there I to much Inequality.
Some eytt terrapin and other coffee and
there aeema to be an erroneous Impres
sion that all waiters are underpaid and
depend on their tip. While thay are
not overpaid, eve- Including tip, their
alarlea compare favorably with mot
working classes, considering that It la
Inside work the year around and ln
cludea board.
Tha average pay In firt-c!as hotel
I from $40 to 140 a month for about
10 hours' work, and In most places they
get a day off a week, with resultant
loss cf pay. Most of their tip money
I spent In a way pleasing to th publlo
for different thing not necessary to
th untlpped worker. For Instance.
In order to keep up a neat appearance
he haa a larger laundry bill for dick
lea or whlta shirts, aprons, cuff, tie,
collar, etc. He must be shaved at all
times and hi shoe ihlned. Wage
proper go to th aupport of waiter
nd very often toward supporting
large families. A long a there are
those who can afford and are willing
to give, there will be those willing
to reeelve, especially from th boy
and girl that deal off the left. Bo I
contend that thl la no question for
our dignified lawmaker and that It 1
an Isaue that will adjust Itself.
