Elf rum of money, Isn't it?
.' Nevertheless It's exactly that much
more paid to the railroad employees
of the United States-under the administration
of President Taft In 1?10 thaa
was paid in 1807. the year before Mr.
Taft became president.
This is a sample of the old time Republican
habit of claiming credit for
all natural progress?credit even for
good crops.
Ill It is true that In 1910 the wages of I
Jjfij raj I road employes amounted to some j
||| 171,000,000 mere than In 1907.
m But that represented threo years'
progress.
R In 1906 the amount paid to railroad
ll|r ampkiyes was 1900,601,653. In 1907
B It was $1,072.366,427. This was an in-1
crease of $171,584,774 in a single year
Hf preceding the Taft administration, [
jj^B amounting to more than double the ln>
crease during three yean of the Taft i
m admfnistimUoc.

Then stop, look, listen again!
In four years preceding Taft's administration
1,193 mllea of railroad ,
were sold under foreclosure. Tbs
stocks and bands otf these roads
amounted to $#7,021,000.

Now. what are tha facts?
The "hard times" began back tn

tariff, known as the McKinley tariff,!
went Into effect. Qrover Cleveland, i
the last Democratic president, wm i
elected In 1892. The panic came on in
1893, not as a result of Cleveland's
election, hot as a result of conditions
that had been growing steadily worse
under Republican rule. The panic was :
over before the Democratic tariff bill I
was passed In 1894, and after that
prosperity began to return.
Now let us make a fair comparison
f of these railroad figures.

were 873,602 railroad men employed,1
or 516 per 100 miles.
I In 18114. part high tariff and part I
low tariff, the number fell to 770,808,1
or 444 for 100 miles?decrease 71 per j
100 miles.
Prom this year on, so long as the;
Democratic administration was In pow. [

In 1895 the total number of railroad
men at work was Increased to 786,094.
In 1898 it was 826,620.

Again we beg to remind our
friends that all notices relating to
money - making enterprises, for
church, school or any other cause,
are charged for as advertising at
one cent a word. All cards of
thanks, for any purpose whatsoever,
are charged for at the rate of one

good deal of trouble and embarrassment
if you would just count the
words and send the money along with
your "copy," as it hardly pays us to
keep books on these little items. Yet
in the aggregate they mean a considerable
loss to the paper if not
collected,and they are so easily overlooked.
