MR. WRIGHT'S FIGURES.
The Bulletin a few days ago referred
to the figures given out by the Bureau of
Labor and Statistics in which the c'oin
piler of the figures tries to show that the
rate of wages in this country has in
creased wore than the cost of living.
The charge was then made that the bu
reau is being manipulated by Republi
cans for campaign purposes, and Chair
man Cowherd of the Democratic Con
gressional Campaign Committee has
since issued a statement in which he
clearly shows the inaccuracies and un
truthfulness of Mr. Wright's figures.
Mr. Cowherd charges that motive and
not innocence or mistake made it so. It
is plain even to every purchaser of house
hold supplies for the past ten years that
these statistics are utterly unreliable and
have been manipulated in the interest of
tho Republican party, he declares. He
sums up the the inaccuracy in the Wright
report as follows :
1. There are over thirty million persons
in United States employed for gain.
Wright's investigations covered only 176,
827 wage earners.
2. Not one worker in ten is a member
of any labor union. Nearly all the work
ers considered by Wright are members
of labor unions, and as a rule union
wageB are higher than non-union.
3. The Wright report does not tell us
the yearly earnings of a single worker.
Weekly wages may have risen, while
yearly wages have declined. In fact this
is exactly what has happened in the
window glass industry. During the last
few years the glass plants have been idle
about five months a year. Ten years ago
they were idle only about two months a
year.
4. Wright's report does not tell the
actual amount of wages paid by any
employer to any given number of em
ployes in any one year.
5 Wright's report does not show any
actual money wages for any one of his
'176,827 picked men for any period of
time whether by the hour, day, week or
year.
6. Wright's report does not show the
average yearling, monthly or daily wapjes
for anv set of men in the sixty-seven in
dustries selected.
7. Wright's report fails to show that
any one of 176,827 earners in the sixty
seven industries, fifty-nine occupations
and 3,420 establishments, received more
wages in 1003 than in 1902, or in any other
vear, and hence tho conclusion that year
ly wages have arisen cannot properly be
drawn.
8. Col. Wright could have selected an
equal number of establishments whose
output, quality of work and number of
employees was decreasing, and results of
his investigations would then have been
as pessimistic as his present results are
optimistic.

PITHY I'OINTS.
Tho Now York Sun is rather unreliable as a
luminary.
Tho New York Sun would as leaf "shlno" for
one party as tho other, It appears.
Dr. Potter must bo a man of great parts to
stoop so low as to raise tho beer business out of
the miro and slime and sot it on high.
It more than likely wasn't In tho capacity of n
humble missionary that Doctor Potter discovered
tho need of another beor saloon In the great city
of N.ew York.
GOLDEN JUBILEE.
Senii-Centonninl of Germantown Fair In
Every It spect Worthy of the Anni
versary Occasion.
The semi-centennial meeting at the
Germantown fair grounds waB in every
respect worthy of the anniversary occa
sion. Apart from tho exhibit of stock
which was unusually fine the speeches
from Messrs. Lloyd, Kehoe, Sallee and
Walton gave an attraction and interest
,to the day that was unique.
The reminiscential address of Mr. Evan
Lloyd was a valuable contribution to the
history of the association from a gentle
man who has been a strenuous helper in
the work.
Mr. Kehoe was at his best. His clear,
strong fine voice reached every ear in
the amphitheatre and his remarks upon
the historic and social features of the as
sociation were happily conceived and in
perfect taBte. The ladies were especially
pleased. He closed with a brief but
,strong appeal for an electric road from
Maysville to Mt. Olivet.
The next speaker, Mr. Clarence Sallee,
was a strong second to Congressman Ke
hoe. There was precious little poetry in
his address, but it was a fine specimen of
solid classical prose. His suggestion that
the founders of the association should
have a monument to their memory struck
an appreciative chord.
Mr. Sallee was followed by Judge Wal
ton of Lexington (an old Mason County
boy) in a masterly address upon-the va
ried aspects of modern progress and their
relation to the development of agricultu
ral prosperity in this State. The speech
recalled the brilliant address of Colonel
Stevenson just fifty years ago, au ad
dress which stimulated and sustained
the energies of the association for a half
century of heroic endeavor.
Altogether it was a day of peculiar and
impressive interest and the speeches up
on the occasion deserve a better fate than
to be buried in the dusty archives of the
association. They should be published
at once.

Maysville Citizen Gives Yon Here.
You may differ from yoar neighbors in
many important questions of the day.
Your opinions may coincide with those
of the minority or of those of the major
ity and still you may be in doubt. But
you can hardly be skeptical about the
merit of Doan's Kidney Pills when you
read such emphatic local endorsement as
the following:
Mrs. J. B. Gibson of 113 West Fourth
street says: "The value of Doan's Kid
ney Pills is quickly made manifest by
tbeir use. I obtained them at J. 'Jae.
Wood & Son's drugstore, comer of West
Second and Market streets, and although
my experience waa not extensive, it was
because their curative powers were so
quickly demonstrated that extended use
was unnecessary. The quick relief from
backache which was obtained from the
use of Doan's Kidney Pills caueed me to
recommend this valuable medicine when
ever opportunity offers."

difference in the quality of our ice
