SHOWING VP KEIlt HARLWE.
Kelr HarUle appears to pin his faith to
the doctrine that ho can fool some, peo
ple a'.l' the time. (He tivld in -his Chicago
speech on Labor Day that "In tha year
J390, according to the best returns avail
able, only 17 per cent of the wealth pro
flueed by the leveli headed, vigorous, sen'
, slide artisans of America found its way
into their pockets, whereas 83 per cent
of that -wealth went to the idle owners
nl land and capital." The Chicago Trl-
, bune bring the census figures to show
XI . -.1 1 ..... 1.1 II.. n, V. .. W I. ,lnn
most effectually as follows:
f The total value of manufactured pro
ducts for the cerarus year 1S!)0 was ,3T
ml. lions or aouara. -me cost ot raw
materials used was 3,1612 millions of dot
' the 1'bor of nrtlsUns on those raw mi-
terlala amounted to 4,210 million's of dol-
lars. Of that product tb artisans got
In the ha.po of wines 1!,2S3 millions ot
UolOani, or more than BO per cent intseud
of 17 por cent. Out of the 1,927 millions
of dollars -which the artisans ma not
. get had to bo paid the cost of finding
maiiket tor goods and tuxes, insurance,
and other expense of currying on busi
ness. What remained -wus the reward
no't of "Idle cUlplto7' but of the meniu
ability which could uae capital prouua
lively."
It Is a common error with men of the
Hwrdia stamp to ignore one factor ot
wealth production. They all declare that
labor and capital are the only factors
that labor does the work, capital merely
furnUilies the means; that the capitalist
is an Idle parasite who fattens onlabor.
There are three factors labor .capital
uind brains. Neither can be Ignored.
Labor and capital without brains that
' Is, business capacity will not succtod,
More manufacturing palntB have fulled
from lack of this than are In existence
In the United States today. It Is easy,
comparatively, to erect a plant and hirj
labor, but to build up a .remunerative
trade, to obtain and hold customers
ajainsl the competition of established
firm, to manuge the details so as to
make money thero la where the bruins
come In. It won't do to Ignore brains,
Mr. 'Hurdlel
It Is already apparent that In the r.ext
campaign the Democrats will attempt to
Drove to the Industrial claHt.es that the
return of prosperity Is due to the action
of a Democratic congress In formulating
and passing the Brlee-Gormun tariff law,
an act of party perfidy and dlahonor,
according to.PreHldciit Cleveland. Demo
crats will Insist that as a result of this
lculslation mtlie and factories hava re
sumod work and wages of employes have
been lncrtUd. They will play this dem
lajoglc act to the flnlnh, and it remains
to be seen whiat effect It will have on
the voter. That this I the plan is evi
denced by the attack which is being made
tn General Uuslwiell In Ohio by the
Democratic press because he has said,
nnd truthfully, Unit the return of better
time 1s duo to the election of a Repub
lUUn congress Juat yortr, and that the
Industrial Improvement will contlnuo as
It becomes more and more certain inai
the country -will again have a national
Republican administration. HepuUUoan
success alwayn has been and uJwrtys
wUl be the harbinger of Industrial pros
perity. Oeneral llushnelt Is right and he
in In line with the leaders of his puny
and the November election -will prove
that he Is In line with the Intelligent
voter of Ohio.
i i i i
.Prosperity is slow returning to the
n,,.Mon. for -which we are all thanKrui
Hut Che voters will not foi-set that
run ndence. In the buitneu and Industrie
world, did not return until the people de
cided at the polls last November that
they hi enough of Democratic tariff
tinkering, by electing a RepubUcun house.
It will not be forgotten, clthor, that
ih Democratic boast of hltfh wages un
der their tariff law Is false. As Repre
sentative Dalsell truly saya. "an examln
.i km of the schedule of wages paid
now, under all the 1ncrtss that have
been recently made and lose or wage
paid during the prosperous times of the
McKlnley law will show that the worK
Imrmen are not receiving as much money
by from 10 to 33 per cent now as they
did then." .
Democrats can "point with pride" to
one Instance In which the Oorman-Drlee
tariff, Is directly responsible for an In
crease In .wttges, but the Increase Is In
Wales a.id not In the Untied States. The
last congress reduced tlx duty o. tin
plate one cent a pound. The result was
that American tin plate manufacturers
were compelled to either go out of h"l-ws-w
or reduce the wages of tlulr wont
men. The men were Inform J to the
exact situation, and rather taun- lo.-e
oil. accepted s. reduction. Put the m w
law worked dlfMvntly In WnUs.' With
the reduction of duty came a revival cf
tiualnrHS there. The price of tin plate
v.ai advanced, more men wc.-e employed
....I ...;.. 1U- f.f (1.. -t In.-riJKf J.
With' this revival came a demand from
th workmen -for Increased waged, and
it was granted. The Welci manufactur
ers are now paying the old wages of ten
years ago, or an advance of about 20
per cent. And this Is how Democratic
legislation benefits the other fellows. In
view of these facts It may be well to
a.sk the question who, pays the tax?
After having been Inglortously whipped
by Japan because ehe was not prepares
for the war that ehe ought to have known
was Inevitable, China is preparing to
take steps which 'Will enable her to re
sume her position In the East. The Chi
nese officials are obtaining a list ot
United States i-lilpbullders, and informa
tion In regard to the capacity of their
works, the cl'aiss and character of the
ships they build, as well us all knowl
edge possible In regard to the factories
that muike ordnance guns for the
United States. This does not, of course,
Include the government factories. The
questions that Chinese ofliclals hens are
asking are so comprehensive, and so full
of details, that there can hardly be any
doubt that the Chinese ivre acquiring such
Information as will be valuable to them
In the near future. The fact that Ll
Hung Chang hus, again been restored to
favor with the emperor Is considered as
significant, because ho has been foremost
among the Chinese In the demand that
that government should become equipped
with modern urms, and Its soldiers shoulil
be drilled according to modern tactics
as well as that the navy should be com
prised of the beat vessels of the cruiser
and battleship types possible. Ll Hung
Chang was responsible for whatever
prcpUraitlon China had made for the late
war, and had It not been for his efforts
to modwnize his country the Chinese
would have been much worse defeated
Chan they were.
Vest, Carlisle and Mills all now ack
nowledge their error in advocating free
silver a few years ago, Just as they were
forced In the process of time to admit
their mistake upon the slavery question
and secession. The query arises If these
great statesmen have been so far astray
upon the Important questions named,
may they not also be mistaken In other
doctrines and economic vl-jws which
they yet profess to hold. For exumple.
having been brought to confess their er
ror on slavery, the right of secession
and tho money question, Isn't thero rca.
son to hope they may yet embrace the
good old Republican doctrine of ptotec
lion?
The restoration of Chinese activity will
probably result In giving work to many
an American laborer, and causing Amer
lean eihlpyairds to hum with activity. The
atnamge sight may be observed of the
same shipyards and the same gun factor
ies, and the same armor plate factories,
making sh'lps, guns and armor plate for
both the Chinese Kind Japanese.
WHAT 'EARNINGS WILL CUV.
New York Tribune.
Distinguished' 'Democrats returning
from Kurope bring with them hopeful
predictions and presumably hopeful feel
ing. No doubt they have been much Im
pressed by the revival of business which
has occurred during the last three
months, and calculate that the country
mut bo prospering so gretutly that Demo
cratic legislation will get the credit. It Is
the natiwail supposition for men who have
been away. Men who have been at hoin-i
know that the working force, thougn
better employed, Is not fully employed,
and that wages, tlhouirh advanced for sev
eral hundred thousaind men about half
the decline since 'Mr. Cleveland's inaugur
ation, are for the remaining !K pr cent
of the working force us low us ever.
They also know 'that tho working voters,
who lare neairly the whole number, are
not better iwtlsfled wllh tho Democratic
party or Its legislation than they were
lawt November,
This Is the danger ubnut which the
Dcmociultlc puirty Is laboring to cheat
Itself as usual. 'Hy dint of repeating un
truths designed to deceive Republicans
tho party persuades Itiielf that everything
Is as prosperous and labor as well re
munerated In things which wams will buy
as ever. After a time this will be found
a coolly m Wake, for the men who re
ceive the wages know the facts, and are
not deceived In the least. It is within
their persont.1 knowledge that pricis ot
the things they have to buy have not
declined as much as the wages they re
ceived, True, prices of all products,
taken as a whole, have been lower In
this samifl month of .September than nt
any previous date In the history of the
country, but tho decline has been almost
wholly In prices of farm products, and
of that decline itho worklngmen do not
Immediately get the benefit In the retail
prices.
Valn.n products, taken as a whole, were
never before so low us in July, 18U4, uut
are now fully 0 per cent lower than they
were then, the relative Importance ot
different in'ileli'S being considered. In
Octoln-r, 1C, the sai.ne quantities ol
products at 'New York wholesale prices
cost lll,T.'3 which now coat JM,B7tt a de
cline of l'J.4 per cent. All other products
have declined In value about 8 por cent,
farm products suffering nvont, -as Is usual
In every period of depression, fron the
reduced iiblirty of the people to consume.
Hut consumers do not get bread cheaper,
nor most kinds of meals, nor ura most
kinds of vegetables reduced to actual
com-aimcrs as much a In tho wholesale
market. Uut while prices of all kinds
of products average IS per cent lower
th.'an In October, the rivatir propor
tion of the working force has a re'.x
tlve'y larger reduction In wages, though
not as yet rs'mnch reduction In relali
prices.
There lire many men, of course, who
fee! these consequences, though they do
not keep such precise records tMut they
can tell exactly where their difficulty
Is. The Democratic) managers may bo
sure that these voters, of whom there
are mlVfons, will vote according to their
ln.Ilvldiif-1 Impressions. There U some
thing left after tho week's work, or there
Is not. Either It Is as much as It used
tc be or It Is not. Ulatiket sheets tilled
with figures, whole volumes of statis
tics, will not grt theso voters sway from
a rea'lsatlon of the fact that at tho end
of the week or month they are not as
well off as they used to be, even If they
have worked, nd worked full time.
thonirt many still ixtve not.
Our Democratic friends are making the
old mistake fn thinking that tho voters
of the country are Incompetent fools
wlvo wl never know what hurts them
when they are hurt. The voters do not
need to study anything more elaborate
tlum their own pocket-books at the end
of each 'Week. If the Democratic policy
pays for them, giving them better cm
ulovment nd wuges In proportion to the
cost of living than In IS2, they will re
member the fact . If It does not, they
will remember that fact also.

been a lack of suitable accommoda

(From the San Francisco Argonaut.)
"In the heart of the great desert ot

called Indio, which, in our opinion, i(
the sanitarium of the earth. We be

much that there remnlns but little for
man to do. As to its possibilities as a
