■Compers' Testimony for the
Tariff.
Mr. Gompers, president of the Am
erican Federation of Labor, made a
visit of some months in Europe where
he investigated trade conditions, and
as he had no party to serve, what he
says iseutitled to great weight. Speak
of the cost of living in the United
States as compared with European
countries he says: "If the immigrant
to this country is willing to continue
living here on the same level he was
obliged to accept in his native land he
can find it for the same money." That
is the truth. In fact, on the same level
he can live for less in the United
States, while his wages will be several
-times greater. That is the reason a
-million and more of immigrants come
to this country annually. Mr. Gom
pers, in his report to the Federation
Labor, says:
Living is cheap to the wage worker
in Europe because he does without
what in America soon becomes a neces
sity to him —food in good quantity and
quality, presentable clothes, and a
comfortably furnished home, and in
general a larger and freer life. Meat
is usually from 25 talOOper cent, high
er than in the United States. The im
migrant, coming to America, finds
that if he can buy in quantity (and in
cases where he need not) his flour,
fuel, potatoes, oil, sugar, coffee, salt—
the essentials for the plain table—all
cost less than they ordinarily do
in the land he left. The cheapness
aud abundance of many varieties
of fruits and of our melons and toma
toes is a surprise to him.
Mr. Gompers goes onto point out
the things that are cheaper in this
country than in Europe—cotton cloth
ing, shoes, newspapers, amusements,
education, <ftc. He says that in no
city in Europe did he find rents any
•cheaper, wages considered, than in the
United States, while an American
would lie surprised over "how little
the European renting wage-worker
gets for hie money." As towages Mr.
Gompers tells with surprise of the de
mands made at the British Trade
Union Congress at Ipswich where it
was stated that railroad workmen got
14.25 per week, agicultural labor
ers 21 shillings ($2.88), builders' labor
ers 9 cents an hour, and so on. Aud
yet there are hundreds of thousands
of workmen seeking employment in
the United Kingdom even at such piti
able wages.
Why this enormous difference from
th»- wages paid in the United States?
Britian is a Free Trade country, and
t.he United Stales is under a Protec
tive Tarifl. And yet the Democrats
aud Insurgents want to reduce Ameri
can workmen to the European level.—

ROOSEVELT ISSUE
DISRUPTS THE NEW
KEYSTONE PARTY
Pittsburg Leaders Say Berryltcs I
Bossed Convention and Froze Them
Out —Berry is Sure to Lose, They
Claim.
PITTSBURG, JULY 31 —The defeat of
the resolution expressing pleasure at
the return to the United States of form
er President Theodore Roosevelt by
the delegates of the Keystone party
convention in Philadelphia last Thurs
day has split that organization asunder
and a large part of the Republican end
of it, will not give their support to
William H. Berry the gubernational
nominee.
While not permitting themselves to
be quoted, several of the local leaders
of the Keystone party yesterday ex
pressed considerable bitterness at the
outcome of the convention. They
charged that the promoters of the
Berry boom controlled the entire affair
and would not give the Republicans
any show whatever. The local lead
ers declared they would go along with
the ticket because of the nominating
of Cornelius D. Scully for State treas
urer but they don't propose to work
up much enthusiasm.
NAKKOW PIKCE OF WOHK
By refusing to adopt the Roosevelt
resolutions, which was but an expres
sion of pleasure at the return of the
former President, the local leaders de.
Clare the convention drove out of the
organization a large percentage of the
Republicans. "It was supposed to be
a convention of independents," declar
ed one leader, "and embodied the prin
ciples for which Theodore Roosevelt
has advocated. It was, therefore, but
right that we should have adopted a
resolution expressing pleasure that he
| was back again on the job in this coun
try. It was a narrow piece of work to
, defeat the resolution and I cannot see
how the Republicans of the conven
tion can stand for it."
This same leader declared there was
absolutely no hope for Berry's election.
"We will go along and do the best we
can, but there is little incentive to the
work. We will put up a full congres
sional, senatorial and legislative tlck
| et in the field in Allegheny county, but
' we are badly handicapped by the Her
'ry candidacy. Berry's friends bossed
1 the convention in a manner which
made Boise Penrose look like an ami-
I teur.

"They tacked the local option plank
on the platform and declared for the

would. The tuiw ticket can do nothing

nominee, and give them to Tener,

CASTE IN THE ARMY.
Civilians Find It Difficult to Under
stand Military Discipline.
One tiling not commonly understood
amoug civilians Is the completeness of
the barrier which divides army offi
cers from the soldiers, or. as they are
more generally called, the "men." It
is always vastly amusing to those fa
miliar with the service to observe the
errors in this respect frequently made
by the novelist aud the playwright.
Personal qualifications have nothing
whatever to do with the matter. A
soldier may be a gentleman who has
enlisted with the purpose of obtaining
a commission, yet there can be be
tween him and his officers no social
Intercourse of any sort, and severe
penalties would be inflicted upon the
officer who would attempt to disregard
the rule.
It might seem that this enforcement
of a caste sense would result in much
hnrd feeling on the side of the men.
Such, however, is not actually the
case. It is taken for granted and rec
ognized as conducive to "good order
and military discipline." It is a mili
tary regulation like any other and im
plies no disgrace. Directly a soldier's
enlistment is out or directly he rises
from the ranks the prohibition is re
moved.—Delineator.
Roundabout.
The very budding barrister assumed
the approved legal look of indisputable

"Now, my good lady," he observed,
shaking an admonitory forefinger at
the woman in the witness box, "you do
not appreciate the gravity of the ques
tion. Endeavor to concentrate what
brain power nature has endowed you
with and answer me. What relation
ship does the defendant bear to you?"
"Right-ho!" responded the good lady.
'"ls father's cousin was tny cousin
once removed, and 'is mother. marry-
In' me unele's only brother"—
"My good lady," interrupted the bud
despairingly, "I am not here to solve
puzzles!"
"Well, I'm Mowed!" ejaculated the
lady. "You was talklu' jest nah as
though you'd cornered most o' the
brain pahr goln'. If you 'adn't swank
ed quite so much I'd 'a' told yer plain
ly an' simply! 'E'se me brother."—
