To Have Said That a Dollar a Day Was Enough Wages -Esopus, N. Y., Sept. 22.-There is a good deal of talk in Ulster county to tho effect thnt Judge Parker will not be ablo to carry his own district, de spite his great personal popularity and tho naturnl pride his neighbors feel in having 'a presidential candi date among them. The Republican lcadcrsnrQv working tooth and 'nail to roll up a good majority, 'and in the last week they havo 1been making much uso of n story going tho rounds about Iho judge's views on tho sub ject of wages. In instance it is noth ing more than ,thnt ho remarked two years ago that an unskilled laborer was entitled to $1 a day and no more. The amount of gossip started by this revivnl of an off-hand contribu tion to economic discussion in a cor ner grocery storo is indicative of rural sentiment; and tho precise details with which tho story is embellished in its campaign garb show tho import n"hco attached to it by the bucolip nianngors of tho campaign in this patt 2a x..- i.i '' "Hero is tlto form in YrMlelf tile stoW i& givon Will Be Open to the Pupils on ' Monday of Next Week WANTED FREE RIDE Bakorsfield, Cal., Sept. 22.-Jnmes Hemphill, a Southern Pacific brakeman, was murdered last night a few miles above Calientc, presumably by a tramp, whom he wbb endeavoring to eject from the train.

Any man can livo on that, and thnt is nil unskilled labor is worth. I am sorry I havo o j$iy more than thnt, and wouldn't If wo hail a butter supply of labor here abouts." This statement was mndo by Judge Parker in Emory Freer 's storo one Saturday morning nbout two years ago, and mado an impression on those that heard it from him directly, anl on those that heard it from others, that has not yet died out. The re mark was called forth by a discussion in Freer's store. Freer is tho grocery man, dry goods man and tho general merchant of tho village, and his store, which is on tho corner of the main street, is tho gathering placo for he men horeabouts to exchange news, gossip nnd political views. On the day in question a crowd of men was there. There was Emory Freer, Sam E. Mott, who runs tho butcher shop nnd livery stablo; Low Booth, tho bar ber; Carl Wismor, who is now u bog gngo handler in tho West Shoro sta tion in Kingston, and several farmers from tho vicinity who were in the village for their Saturday trading. Tho topic wns tho scarcity of labor in tho township nnd tho high wages that wore being paid, unskilled labor getting at times as high as $1.00 a day. Whilo tho talk was going on Judgo Parker happened in, and ap peal was mndo to him immediately. Ho answored without hesitation that a dollar a day was enough for any man. Tho talk immediately roso to a high pitch of excitement. Everybody in the storo took a hand in it, and none agreed with Judge Parker. Even tho farmers, who in that part of the (Spun try aro n vory thrifty clues, cfuld not accept suoh u proposition. Ai dol lar and n quarter a day was tho bot tom prlco for day -labor. Tho judge stayed somo timo in the store, listen ing to tho talk and taking consider able part in it, but no nrgumonts were ablo to movo him from his belief that a dollar was all that a day's labor was worth, with th.o furbur, statement that ho never paid more than that if ho could help it, whlob was often the case. Mr. Wismor, who was one of those prosent, says of tho incident: "I remember it ns plainly as if it wus yosterday. It was in Freer's store. Emery Freer was there, Lew Booth, the harbor, and Butcher Mvtt. Theso men, I romember, were there, and tboro wero others, farmers. "It made n lot of talk at the time, because wo liked and admired Judge Parker, and we were surprised to hear him say such a thing; a lot of people around Esopus have held it up against him. Everybody is remember ing it now. The judge1 is a fine raan, but he is way off oa that proposition." The Salem public schools will open for tho year on Monday, September 20th.
