No joking . there lias been a revo
lution in tins country already. 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?

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.
The machinist, carpenter, plumber
and various other classes of skilled
workmen are ndw paid anything
