“When Gen. Lee requested me to

WAGES THE WORLD OVER.

Enormous Variations from State to State
and Country to Country.

It is popularly suppose that the immu-
table law of supply and demand operat-
ing throughout a country makes the
wages for the some labor uniform in
every part of it. as a dearth of labor in
any one place cannot be of long dura-
tion while men are employed elsewhere.
A recent supplementary bulletin of the
manufactures of the United States. how-
ever. shows this general view to be
fable.

In Colorado the average yearly earn-
ings of an employs of a manufacturing
company was ”20; in Montana. 8722; in

the States where colored labor is abun-
dant the total average earnings are com
in $376: in Mississippi. 3310: ill North
Carolina. 8216: in Georgia 8307. and in
South Carolina. 8267. In New York the
uterugo is 3cm»; ill Pennsylvania. 8492;
in Ohio, all». and in Massachusetts,
3404.

When it is considered in what extent
the telltale and child labor enters into
the factory operation» in New York the
figures um surprisingly high. The total
wages paid in New York manufacturing
enterprises amount in ordinary years to
”00.000.090. .

England suluila lit the bowl lll Europe
astlle best market for labor. Scotland
and France nreo little behind her. Then
there is a heavy drop until Austria. the
Netherlands. and Belgium are reached:
the scale-gems still lower in Germany
where the rate is the some as in lreloud.
Spain. Russia. Sweden and Italy follow
here in the order given. According to
the table of lloillo. an Italian authority,
glassblowers are the best paid mechanics
in ltaly. and paper makers the poorest.
The rate of wages in Italy. low as it is
now. was still lowar twenty-five years
ago. In England the increase in the
rate of wages has becuallout twentyper
dent. in twmty~flve years. A French
bricklayer gets fifty per cent. more
wages now than were paid for his work
in France forty years ago.

Jack. who knew the peculiarities of

it safer to wheel the bicycle along by
