The ir,eo!;anies and laborers may be dis .vntenied. but they have taken a position at the top of the heap since A. Wages have doubled, tripled, .juadrupled -even more in gome oases while the so-called "salaries" of other workers in American hive of industry the white-collared fel lows have about stood still. There's reason in the discontent of the latter. But why the discon tent of the former? Slats' Diary Friday me & ever. 1 guess. Jake is enemys for we got in a argu ment as to wich had the best ma and finely come 2 blows. Both of us City Appeals for Farm Workers The city newspapers are begin ning to wake up. From blaming the food producer for the high cost of living they have sprung at one jump to the other extreme of acknowledg ing that high prices of farm mate rial, high wages and lack of hired labor is the cause of much of in creased cost of foodstuffs. Here and there you find a big city newspaper like the Chicago Tribune establishing bureaus for farm labor es or printing coupons for them to answer. There are a few dribbling answers to the appeals but not enough to supply the field help for a single farming county. The reason i is that the city manufactories are: bidding against them, offering all; sorts of Images and easy times to fel-i lows w ho ought to be working on the land. When the building trades! gladly pay a common laborer $7 a day, how is a newspaper going to persuade a big hulking fellow to ac cept $3 or J 4 a day in the country? The times are out of joint. Your t" a day iwould be fine if meat and shoes and houses and clothes were reasonably priced in the cities. But the time Is coming when $2 to $3 a day working the soil will look a whole lot better than $7 a day in the city (working your jaws with noth ing between your teeth. Our hats are off to Sam H. Board man, the father of his tchvn, who planned from start to finish, the suc cessful affair at the Dillabaugh ranch. True, he had willing workers but we understand Mr. Boardman should be given the credit for planning in de tail every feature of the barbecue and picnic. Give Overalls to White-Collared Fellows We note that some newspapers are denouncing the white-collared men who are wearing cheap overalls In revolt at high prices of clothes, on the ground that the overall belongs to the workingman. If this is a rule of everyday ethics, we move that it be changed. The man who works in an office as edi tor, bookkeeper, clerk, reporter, salesman, or w ho works at the law or in the pulpit is more entitled to the cheaply priced overall than any I worker anyfway any of the big city I workers. The common laborer in j the building trades makes J7 a day. Let him buy the serges; he can af ford it. Let the $3 and $4 a day re porter, bookkeeper and clerk have the comparatively low-priced over alls, if he wishes to keep out of debt and live on his salary.
