THE COST OF LIVING
By Frederic J. Haskin
It Is claimed that the world s high ;
watermark in the cost of living has been
reached. The price of everything, from
the flannels tn which the new-born babe
is wrapped, to the coflin in which the
aged man is laid to rest, has climbed
s to an unprecedented height. The whole
world is trying to ascertain the cause, i
but every man denies responsibility. ■
There are so many twists and turns n j
the path that leads from production to i
consumption that it is difficult to fix re- .
sponsibliity. but every American con- j
sumer has turned detective and the
l search for the guilty ones is on.
• • •
Fortunately there are a number of
clues which suggest where to look for t
the trouble. First of all. it is found that ;
,' the income of the average American
family, is »•> a year, of which about
>240 goes for food and drink. As there .
are some families in the United
States, this means that the nation's food
Mil is about M.oOO.DW.'XO a year. Os this
one-third goes for the purchase or
meats. The American people are now
eating something like JO.OO,<WO,<W pounas
of meat a year, and for every cent that
is added to the pound-cost of that mea*
the consumer has to bear an additional
burden.of DOC.OOauOO- A similar raise In
the price of other foodstuffs would mean
a total increase of about $500,000,000 a
year in the burdens of the consumer for
food alone. *n»erefore it is plain that
the increase in prices is a case of grand
larceny and not of petit larceny.
• • •
In following out cluee the price of beef
Haims first attention. It Is not a new
subject. More than 5® years ago people
were asking why there was such a great
margin between live cattle and a steak or
roast. To settle the matter the Ameri
can Agriculturist of New York followed
an average sixed bullock through the >
shambles and on to the man who bought !
the steak and the roast. It was found I
that the dressed beef cost upward of 10 >
cents a pound—which ip at least JO per ,
cent more than the average retailer pays |
today. Yet when the man with the mar- i
ket basket came in he got his cut of j
porterhouse for 17 cents a pound, and his
round steak for less than 12 cents. Many '
retailers who pay 8 cents a pound for a I
•wreass t.xiay sell the porterhouse at 25
cents and the round steak at 18.
• • •
Tn this year of grace 1910 another bul
lock was followed through the shambles
to tho price-fixing of the retail cutter.
■ Cattle quotations show that in the Chi
cago market for the week ending Janu
ary 15. the average price on the hoof was
MB cents a pound. At St. Louis butcher
bought the carcass of an average steer
for I cents a pound, and in order to
■ disprove the conclusions of Secretary
WUson. published a detailed account of
i- ’ how he cut it up and sold it. It weighed
sflo pounds and cost him 840. He sold the
porterhouse steaks at 20 cents, sirloin and ‘
prime rib at 17 1-2 cents, round steak at
12 1-2 cents, and other cuts proportion
ately. He received 151.85 for it at retail.
• • •
The only trouble seems to be that he
placed his prices at retail too low Moat

, people pay 25 cents for porterhouse, 20
cents for sirloin and rib. and 18 cents
for round, with the other cuts in pro
portion. On this basis he would sell $52.24
worth of beef from the carcass—a gross
profit of over 55 per cent. Mark you. this
; with no change in his figures other than
I to increase his retail quotations t<f what
I the average American is now paying at
.the butcher shop.
i One is not entirely dependent on Sec
retary Wilson's figures or upon those of
the St. Louis butcher to show the gross
profits of the retailer. The butchers have
text books and they offer further cor
roboration. One of these is “The Mod
iem Butcher” and the auhtor, a meat
; cutter of 3D years’ experience, shows how
■ a carcass must be cut up agd priced at
> retail in order to yield a profit of 20 per
, cent. In an S-cent carcass, to yield
this profit, the porterhouse and sirloin
must be retailed at 17 cents, and the
round steak at 13 cents. In a 9-cent
carcass the former must be sold at 18
cents and the latter at 15, with the other
cuts In proportion. Let the reader com
pare these prices with those he pays and
figure out his percentages.
What obtains in beef prices is true of
other meats. Chickens that sell for 12
cents a pound 150 miles from Washington
bring 22 cents when they reach there. A
young man residing in Washington is
part owner of a farm in Virginia, within
150 miles of the national capital. He re
lates that when the corner grocer sells
indifferent eggs at 40 cents a doxen, those
on his farm are bringing 30 cents. When
apples sell at $1 a bushel on the farm the
reigning price at the corner grocery is
SI.OO a bushel. The best country sausage
brings 12 cents ’a pound on the farm and
from 20 to 25 cents in the Washington
I' grocery. John A. Stewart, of New York,
relates how asparagus raised in northern
New York sold for 3 cents a bunch
!on the farm. 6 cents a bunch in the
I neighboring village, and 45 cents a bunch
in New York.
• • •
I It is the same with the other things
| the grocer sells. The January quotation
• for matches retailing at two boxes for
5 cents was SI.OO per 144 boxes. The
highest grades of Java and Mocha coffee
were quoted at 26 and 24 cents a pound
respectively. Extra fancy dried peaches
were priced at 9 cents a pound; the
finest salmon at 18 cents per can. the
best baked beans at 11.15 a dozen cans;
10-cent bottles of horse radish at 621-2
cents a dozen; 10-cent bottles of petro
leum jelly at 75 cents a dozen; 35-cent
bottles of laudanum at $1.90 per dozen;
Epsom salts at 2 cents a pound, and
so on without end.
• • •
It is plain, therefore, that the retail
food dealer gets a large gross profit. He
; lays heavy tribute upon the consumer,
• but what about his net profit? One sees
but little evidence that he enjoys much
of that. Few grocers are getting rich
and many of them go into bankruptcy.
Aye. there is the rub. Competition, sup
posed to be the life of trade, has broken
up the food retailing business into such
little bits that each retailer must make
an enormous profit to get a living out
of his business. He must live whether
he sells ss.o® a year or $25,0®. The small
er his sales the greater per cent he must
add to each dollar's worth of business,
and the larger his business the closer
margin he can give.
• • •
The situation is the same in other
things which the consumer uses. A
country merchant went to Baltimore to
buy goods. He bought a suit of clothes
lat $4-50 which he retailed at $lO. a Pan
ama hat for $4. which retailed at $8 Col
lars at 89 cents a dozen, which retailed
at $1.50 per dozen. Dolls bought for 39
cents a dozen were to be retailed at 10
cents each. Toys which would bring 25
cents each at retail were bought at $1.39
a dozen. Statistics show that the best
sewing machines cost only about sl4 to
make, and bicycles even less. Shoe
I strings that are sold for 5 cents a pair
; cost ® cents a gross.
• • •
But with all these figures, the average
merchant is not growing rich. The re
tailer must pay his rent, his help and his
delivery expenses. His rent is higher be
cause the lot on which the building stands
is worth twice as much as 10 years ago.
The landlord had to pay $6 a day for the
bricklayer and the plasterer, and $4 a day
; for the carpenter who erected the bulld
ing. And so it goes all down the line.
'.The farmer must have more for his beef
I cattle than he realized 20 years ago. for
I the labor he hires costs him as much
again. The laborer must have twice as
much as he had 20 years ago. for his
clothes, his food and his rent have
doubled in price. Relative prices have
• fn< teased relatively everywhere, but what

/PfflLE BILL, Bl BIM.
I 15100PTOI BI SENILE
i Its Provisions, If Finally Pass
ed, Would Affect Gaynor
and Battle
BY RALPH SMITH.
WASHINGTON. D. C„ Feb. B—The
senate yesterday afternoon passed Sen
ator Bacon’s bill to parole United States
prisoners under certain conditions. It
met with no opposition, but whether it
has such easy sailing in the house re
mains to be seen.
The measure is one in which the officers
and inmates of the Atlanta federal prison
are deeply Interested. This is particular
ly true of old man Tom Battle, of Ma
con, and John H. Gaynor, who was im
plicated in the Oberlin Carter army
scandal and conspiracy at Savannah.
Battle is over 80 years of age and is
serving a life term in the penitentiary
for murder. ll* killed a man in the Ma
con federal building about four years
ago, was tried, convicted and sentenced
in the United States court.
Mrs. Gaynor, wife of the celebrated
conspirator,' in common with the rela
• tives of hundreds of other prisoners, has
■ interested herself in the parole bill.
' She believes that its provisions are
1 such that her husband, aged and infirm,
! may escape the hardships and trials con
, j sequent upon his confinement, though
I she realizes that his pardon is out of the
question.
’ Under the provisions of the bill, any
United States prisoner who- has been
confined for a year and a day, or more,
mfty be released on parole, under rigid
tfjnditions and regulations, provided his
conduct has merited it.
The warden and physician of each
prison, together with a special agent of
the department of justice, constitute the
parole board of each prison. The board
will be controlled In its actions by re
ports from proper prison authorities con
cerning the conduct, etc., of the appli
cant for parole.

This thing of prices works some strange
anomolies. Secretary Wilson says that be- ;
! yond a doubt, American food products
i are being sold cheaper abroad than at
! home, and that the glory of having the
cheapest foodstuffs in the world has
passed from us. A. R. Cahill, a represen
tative of the London board of trade, who
is investigating prices in America, says
that he has discovered a riddle he cannot
solve—the American pays 5 cents for a
14-ounce loaf of bread, while the Britisher,
with his bread made of American wheat,
1 gets a 84-ounce loaf for 10 cents.
It is difficult to predict the outcome of
the present hue and cry against the in
crease in the cost of living. The national
protest of the consumer would undoubt
edly be effective if it were carried for
ward with the same enthusiasm that
marks Its start. But as a rule the dear
public, after being driven to desperation
. in some such matter, suddenly sits up
. on its hind legs and howls to the moon.
' It makes the welkin ring for a space.
’ then as suddenly forgets its crusade and
lapses into forbearance and inactivity.
It is to be hoped that in this instance the
■ consumer will prove to be long-winded,
. that he will continue to "holler” lustily
i and at length, but if this crusade does
not prove to be a flash in the pan It will
be contrary to tha history of such move

11 BLACKS KILLED
IN TENNESSEE RIOT
White and Negro Laborers
Clath in Race Riot At Lock
and Dam Camp
CHATTANOOGA. Tenr,., Feb. B.—Two
negroes were killed as the result of a
race riot at the Halesbar lock and dam
soon after midnight this morning.
The dead:
W. H. BAKER, laborer.
EDWARD SLOAN, laborer.
A report that the third negro was
killed could not be verified.
Bad feeling has been brewing for some
days between the white and black em
ployes of the lock and dam contractors,
and an assault upon one of the negro
laborers by a number of white men yes
terday, coupled with the alleged liberal
distribution of bad whisky and guns
among the negroes brought the trouble to
a climax.
VOLLEY OF SHOTS.
After an exchange of shots between a
force of five policemen sent from Chat
tanooga, under the direction of Capt.
William Burke. Deputy Sheriff Moreland,
of Marion county, who had sworn in a
number of special deputies and the ne
groes, the trouble was quelled.
None of the white men was killed or
wounded in the rioting. The negroes
who had taken the most active part in
the trouble-making retreated up the Ten
nessee river, and the sheriff of Marion
county is trying to apprehend them.
A negro laborer who was recently sent
to the lock and dam from Alexandria,
Va., was set upon by a party of white
laborers yesterday afternoon and badly
beaten. The trouble is sajd to have start
ed over the rumor that a negro was to
be put in charge of some work over the
white men. This the officials detjy.
The contractors sent the negro Into this
city late yesterday for medical treatment
and to avoid further trouble.
After the negroes at the lock and dam
had quit work yesterday, whisky began
to circulate freely, and they adopted an
obstreperous attitude toward the whites.
As the blacks outnumber the whites two
to one the white employes and the fami
lies became alarmed over the prospective
trouble, and notified the Marion county
authorities. Sheriff Westmoreland was in
Chattanooga at this time, but his broth
er, a deputy sheriff, took charge of the
situation, while an attempt was being
made to locate the sheriff.
FEARED ATTACK ON CAMP.
In the meantime the attitude of the
negro laborers became more alarming
and it was anticipated that an attempt
would be made to “shoot up” the camp
A large number of men were deputized
by Deputy Sheriff Westmoreland, but as
only a small number of guns were avail
able, it was realized that they would be
of little use unless arms could be secured
Chief of Police McMahon, of the Chat
tanooga police department, was comnju
nicated /with by them shortly after mid
night, the situation was explained to him.
and he was asked to send a supply of
guns and ammunition to the scene for
the use of the sheriff’s men.
Chief McMahon told the Marlon county
authorities that, while he had no juris
diction in the matter, he realized the
urgent necessity of the occasion and
would do whatever possible to relieve the
situation.
An automobile was secured and 20 riot
guns and I,o® rounds of ammunition
placed in the conveyance. As it was
realized that an attempt might be made
by the negroes to hold up the party and
obtain possession of the arms, a force of
five policemen in charge of Captain Burke
was detailed to convey the weapons to
the officers.
The party of officers left Chattanooga
about 1:80 a. m. and reached the scene
of the outbreak about 3 o’clock. Firing
was in progress when the officers reach
ed the lock and dam.
NEGROES BEGIN FIRING.
Sheriff Westmoreland, of Marion coun
ty, had been located in Chattanooga by
the local police authorities and received
his first intimation of the trouble. He
accompanied the local men to the scene,
and realizing the seripus nature of the
uprising, he at once deputized the Chat
tanooga officers to aid in quelling the
trouble.
The negroes were firing from the shel
ter of their shacks in all directions. The
officers returned the fire and closed in
upon the negro statement, clearing the
shacks of men. A band 6f the negroes
retreated up the river toward the moun
tains. This party, about 30 in num
ber, seemed to be the principal trouble
makers. In their flight they carried
with them a large number of repeating
rifles and revolvers.
The officers made efforts to purse the
fleeing men, but made a search of the
negro houses, one negro was found dead
in one of the houses, in sfich a position
as to indicate that he had been killed In
a drunken fight with members of his
race. Another dead negro was found on
the ground behind one of the houses
where he had apparently stood while
firing upon the officers.
A pistol was found beside the body.
After the officers had left this morning
a third negro was reported dead in a
nearby corn field but this could not be
verified.
A search of the negro houses revealed
a large amount of whisky which accounts
in a large measure for the trouble. One
case, which had not been broken open,
was found, while whisky bottles were
laying around in large numbers.
Reports from the scene at noon are
that quiet Is reigning and most of the
men have resumed work.
How to Get Rid
of Catarrh
A Simple Safe, Reliable Way, and
it Costs Nothing to Try.
Those who suffer from catarrh know
its miseries. There is no need of this
suffering. You can get rid of it by a
simple, safe, inexpensive, home treat
ment discovered by Dr. Blosser, who
for over 35 years, has been treating
catarrh successfully.
His treatment is unlike any other.
It is not a spray, douche, salve, cream,
or Inhaler, but is a more direct and
thorough treatment than any of these.
It cleans out the head, nose, throat
and lungs so that you can again
breathe freely and sleep without that
stopped-up feeling that all ■ catarrh
sufferers have. It heals the diseased
mucous membranes and arrests the
foul discharge, so that you will not
be constantly blowing your nose and
spitting, and at the same time it does
not poison the system and ruin the
stomach, as internal medicines do.
If you want to test this treatment
without cost, send your address to
Dr J. W. Blosser, 51 Walton Street.
Atlanta. Ga., and he will send you
by return mall enough of the medicine
to satisfy you that it is all he claims
for it as a remedy for catarrh, catarrh
al headaches, catarrhal deafness, asth
ma, bronchitis, colds and all catarrhal
complications. He will also send you
free an illustrated booklet. Write him
immediately.
