THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: NOVEMBER 7, 1009. . WHY LAB8R PROSPERS HERE English Statistician Gire Results of Obtervationi. LABOR CONDITIONS IN EtJBOPE af Wae Relatively Illaher La the Inlted Stat gavlner af the People and Growth la Population. Thst American wage earners are mater ially better off, both In point of Income from their labor and of savings left after their living coat ha been paid, than the earners of England, Is tha opinion of Oeorge Faith, the editor of . the London Statist, who la now on a tout of the TTnlted States and Canada. Mr. Palsh haa sd dr eased hla American observation particu larly to the answering thl queatlon on ac count of certain specific Inqulrlea which were put to him before he left the other aid for thl trip, and also because of the endless discussion which th matter of comparative wages and living condition Invoke on both aide of the water. To representative of the New York Time ha consented to talk about the savings of th American people as the matter ap peared to the trained observation of an Englishman. "Everyone acquainted with the progreae of the United State." said Mr. Palah, "I truck by the Ignorance of the average European concerning the force which have brought thl country Into Its existing pros perous condition and which will continue to cause It prosperity to Increase for an indefinite period. Not Infrequently on reada In European Journals of the great speculation that Is going on In New Tork and of th danger of Investing In Ameri can securities. Unfortunately the views put forward by so many of th journals of Europe are the opinion of peraona of high place and Influence who have never troub led to make themselve acquainted with actual condition hare. Mistaken Opinion. 'There can be no doubt that thoae opin ions are made In good faith, and that many Influential person In Europe really regard what they would term th so-called pros perity of America a a highly tinted soap bubble which will speedily evaporate. It may be said that these view hurt no one but their possessors who are prevented by their lack of knowledge from obtaining a participation In th prosperity. Ntvertheles it la of great Importance that Europe should appreciate th true causes of Amer lean progress and th immense rapidity with which thla country la growing in wealth. In trade, and In population. "The solid, permanent and amaxlng progress of the American people I due first and foremost to the unfounded natural resources of the country; aecond to th hard and efflolent work done by practically every cltlsen of the country either In producing the rlohea which nature has bestowed so plentifully or in manufacturing them Into article of consumption or in distributing them to consumers; third, to th , encouragement which everyone receive to give hla best work and to make auggestlons for get ting good result from th labor and cap lul expended; fourth and thla la a mat ter of very great Importance In the prog' res of the oountry to th liberal partici pation which everyone enjoy In the gen' eral prosperity. In Europe too frequently it 1 happen that the wage paid to em ploye are not more than sufficient to keep body and soul together. Here, the general principle seems to be to pay rate of wage which will enable the wage earner to secure a sharo both of th uecesslttsg and of th comfort of llf and at th same time to save oonslder bis sum from year to year. By mean of these aavings th wage earner kecure a ubstaniial participation in the wealth accruing to capital over and above that which comes to them a laborers. Rat ! Vim, oetore leaving lor me states I re ceived a letter in which a correspondent asked me to ascertain If it wa a fact that th wage-earner of America were really better oft than the wage-earner of England, or1 whether the higher rat of wage here,wa not entirely neutral lined by th higher oost of food, clothing and rent Since I have been her I have made a great many inqulrlea upon thla point, and I hav com to the conclusion that th rat of wage in this country is . much higher In proportion than in Oreat Brltlan, after taking into account th purchasing power of th wagea, and that after meeting all expenditures the wage-earner each year save a aubstan Hal average sum, which they place in mvlngs banks or which they use for the purchase of securities, houses, land, bus! neanestta, etc "In answer to my question my In formants hav surprised m not only with the rate of wage tbey are earning, but also with th average sums they save from yea to year, and a number of employers huv confirmed the statements as to the large savings of their employee. There cuu bs no doubt that the savings of wage earners reach a great sum In th aggregate and largely contribute to swell the aggre gate earnings of the nation. "These facts explain many things which are otherwise Inexplicable. When It U known that all classes. Including messen ger and other employes, are regular In ventors and naturally take an Interest In securities, th phenomenon of speculative purchases by the working classes U not so striking a It would be If they merely came Into th market to buy securities on margin in a time of Inflation. Fortunately, the Clientele of brokerage houses In this coun try extends to all sort and conditions of men and women, and is not confined, a unfortunately it la with us, almost entirely to the middle and upper classes. Savlaas ef tha People. "it will be rsallsed that the savings of a nation in which practically everyone 1 able to save reach to a vast figure. An em inent American banker of international re pute with whom I discussed the question if America' aavlng during my paesage here, estimated the total saving of th I'ulied State at nearly a 1.509, 000. ouO iS7.auq, Out' COO) a year. Sine my arrival I hav tought to form an independent estimate, bastd upon a great variety of data, and I nave come to me conclusion mat the an nual aavtngs of this country are over 1.000.000.006 (U.O00.0U0.CO0). and that the amount la growing steadily greater from year to year. Thl estimate tallies with the conclusions of government officials, who calculate th wealth of th country In r at about 11,006,000,000 (no.ooo.ooo.ooo), and In 1H at C2XOuO.OUO.000 (1110.000.000,000). an Increase In four year of about sHOOO. or too, or an average of 1000.000,000 per an num. The rat of tncreaae la now greater than in the four year to 10. "These savings are mainly Invested In new bouse and in new buildings of various kind and descriptions. The population of the United Htatea t growing t the rate of about 1.400.000 per annum, and th mere houalng of th additional population -involve th construction of over 900.004 new dwellings per annum. The progress of th United btate Involve the construction of a great number of new houses at the upper as well at at the tower end of the scale, diet auly U there a natural increase la the population of the wealthier classes, bu; there la going on all the time a process of xpanstnn and uplifting a process which Is reflected In the vast numbers of expensive houses which are erected from year to ,-ir. In the last week I have paid visits o the suburbs of N"W Tork and Philadel phia and found an Immense Increase In the number of article and costly homes rected since my Inst visit five years ago. Maltlplyln Homes. "What Is going on In New Tork and 'hlladelphia Is, T am Informed, taking place In all the cities of the country and along the sea roast, and In tho aggreKSte the number of expensive houses that have been and are being erected Is very great, and th amount of capital expended upon new houses for all classes of society rearhe enormous figures. "Beyond the dwelling needed to house the Increasing population, account ha to be taken of the Increased nine of the busi ness premises which have to be erected to carry on the commerce, banking:, pro fessionals and trades of the country. The amount of capltnl needed to construct the lofty buildings of New Tork, of which a argo additional number have been erected Inc my last visit In 1901, must run Into very large figures. Beyond the houses and business premises needed for residen tial, for merohantlle, bunking and com mercial purpose, account haa to be taken of the multitude of mills and factories of all kinds that have sprung up throughout the country. Having regard to the price of bricks, of stone, and of lumber also, which in th eestern districts is now al most as costly a stone or brick. It Is clear that the aggregate sum expended each year upon building of on kind and another la at least I400.00n.000 (83,000.000,000). "Thl Is, of . course, irrespective of the large sums expended upon furnishing them, and in the cose of factories and plants of providing them with plant and machinery. It Is Interesting to note that In the first eight months of the current year the building expenditures of about 100 cities have been over flOO, 000,000, nnd that foi the whole year they are likely to reach 150.000,000. In the first eight months of lost year the amount was under fcHXtyOOO, and for the complete year about IU0.ono.O00. This Indicates that the building trade Is nearly tS per cent mora active than it wa last year. Investment Opportunities, "In the present year the nation la en couraged to av by th tempting oppor tunities to invest It new savings to ad vantage. Investor hav sought specially to Invest their new saving In th com mon stocks of companies offering th prospect of expansion In profits and In dividend. Naturally at auch a time the holder of those stocks were Indisposed to ell and those who desired to purchase them hav been obliged to pay steadily Increasing price In order to secure the stocks. It cannot be too olearly under stood that tha great advance in the prises of stocks has been brought about by the effort of persons with savings to invest to purchase securities which they have believed to be attractive, and that it ha not been brought about to any great ex tent by the purchase of speculators. "Because of the general expectation that the country Is In for a period of great prosperity in which the profits of railways nd of Industrial corporations will be very large and because of the wide demand for stocks by real Investors who look forward to a period of good dividends I expressed the opinion In my cablegram recently that after the existing pressure for money ia passed and there Is no longer need for bankers to curtail their loans another advance In prices of stocks may take place. It Is true that the cur rent prices of certain stocks are not war ranted by the existing dividends that they already discount the probable Increase of dividend for some time to come and that discrimination Is needed. Nevertheless there are still a number of securities upon which the dividend are expected to in crease appreciably and which, having re gard to th probable dividend they are likely to receive, are believed to bs In trinsically worth tlU higher prior. BAWLS ALL THE WAY TO TRAIN Cow Kidnaped by Moneyless Swain His Its Romance Away. Old Cherry, a cow belonging- to Peter Eggler of Mormon Coul, Wis., never knew she was to be a vtllalnesa tn a real love story, but that Is what force of cir cumstances made her. Thl Is how: William Miller, a farm hand employed near Greenfield, fell madly In love with a neighbor' daughter. Miss Alma Will, and, as It was his sweetheart's mandate that he have SIM saved up before sh would marry him. Miller, anxious to hasten hi marriage, took rapid means to make tha fortune, Petr Eggler had a fine bunch of cows, and Old Cherry was the finest of the "lot Miller had saved up 1110 and he knew he could get th other $40 by the sale of Old Cherry, so onu night last week he entered the pasture where th cow were chewing their cud, and, selecting the finest of the bunch, drove her to La Crosse, where he sold her for th necessary Ho. It was while being driven away that Old Cherry showed what a villain she vas by giving the swain away, or at least helping to. Old Cherry bawled and grunted all th way to La Crosse, as If she knew she was going to her death, nnd the neighbors along the route told Eggler of this next day when the hunt for the bovine began. It wa easy to trace the cow to L Crosse and find the butcher to whom she had been sold. In the meantime Miller had returned to Greenfield with hi 1150 Intact, and ar rangement for th wedding Immediately were made. The unexpected Increase In his fortune by M0 surprised his sweetheart and her people, but no question were asked and every preparation was made fur the wedding. A day before the event was to be held, however, officer, furnished by the La Cross butcher with a description of th man who had sold him the cow, came out to take a look at Miller. One look wss enough, and tb near-groom was taken Into custody. Shortly afterwards h confessed to the theft and was sen tenced to s, year' Imprisonment at Wiu pun. ii via merry naa only gone to ier death with her mouth shut. Miller be lieves he could have escaped detection un til he could have saved enough money to hav paid Eggler and all would have heun well.

"People in Europe are afraid of another wine flood this year," said Lee J. Vanoe, secretary of th American Wine Growers' association, who ha Just returned from Europe, where he investigated the vineyard Industry, especially in France and Italy. "A ucces8ton of enormous vintages Is largely responsible for th present crlsl In the Italian wine trade. "The wine crops of the last two years, that la. In 1908 and 1907, were 1,000,000.000 gallons each. This year the vines are again loaded with grapes, and It Is predicted that there will be another billion-gallon wine crop In Italy. In many plaoes the farmers or growers do not know what to do or where to get cooperage for their new wine. Last year an agricultural commission Investigated the situation, and recom mended that the surplus and unsold wines of poor quality be distilled Into alcohol for Industrial purposes, and that the planting of new vines bs restricted tn some way. Therefore, In order to relieve th situation the Italian government has allowed the manufacture of alcohol without paying the usual tax, and the taxes are now remitted or greatly reduced on the land where the vines are pulled out. For the Hame pur pose most of the cities In Italy lowered the octroi, or duty, which the farmers or growers must pay when they bring their wines Into town. Annual Consumption L.rr. While there Is a great flood of wine there Is at the same time an Immense con sumption of all kinds of wines In Italy. Almost every ' man, woman and child In Italy drinks some win every day In the week, and every week In tha year, and the result Is that the per capita consumption of wine Is greater In Italy than In any other country of the world. France not excepted. Th figures show It to be from thirty-eight to forty gallons per capita a year. But of course all the women and chil dren do not use that quantity, so that It It estimated that the number of gallons of wine consumed by the Italian men Is from fifty to fifty-two gallons a year. or at the rate of about one gallon a week a man, which Is more than the per capita consumption of wine In the United Elates for a whole year. "The sale of wine In Italy la practically free and unrestricted. Any man can open a wine shop, ottteria. In Italy, without pay ing for a license, and he pay simply a small tax. on the quantity of wine which he ells. That the Italian system Is better than ours Is proved by the fact that with the almost free sale of wine there la no saloon question In Italy, no prohibition crusades and no hysterical agitation against the sale and use of wine. The million of people In Italy, who drink wine every day of their lives have no uss for prohibition.

"Our present system of putting a big tax on the sals of wine Is absurd. The license laws In the different states sel dom make a distinction betwsen the sale of wtnea and strong liquors In the amount of tax to be paid, with the result that the license fees for the sal of light wines have been placed so high as practically to pro hibit the opening of those useful and de sirable places which are found all over Italy and Europe generally. "The places for th al of wine in Italy are of many different kinds and run all the way from the high class hotel and pastlccerla to the oeteria, or common wine shop. The restaurants in Europe are all conducted as much for drinking as for eating. Thus a person who goes into a restaurant and orders only solid food is regarded as an unprofitable customer. Some of th better class places print a notice on the bill of fare and charge more for food when no drink Is ordered. For example. If you order only soup, a piece of meat and some cheese, and no wine, 10 or 15 cents would be added to your bill. "Next to the restaurants In Italy are the trattoria, which while they rve thing to- eat are conducted for the ale of bev erages. Th beat class of wins rooms called ftaschetterle also provide meals. Oaterles Like American Bar. "Then there are th regular cafe, which are patronised In the day for breakfast and luncheon and In th evening for wine, beer, coffee, vermouth, ices (gelato) etc. The outerlo correspond somewhat to our saloons, although they 'have no bars and there is no standing up while drinking. These places are headquarters for the workltigmen and the common people. Tl e quality of the place can often be JudtJ by the prices Inscribed on a sign outside of the shop. Thus you will see the figures, 1, I, 3 and 4, eanlng that a half lire of win Is sold for 1, I, t and 4 soldi or cents. "All over Italy they have still otlier places under other names for the sale of wines by the glass. Thus there la the drosheiln, where you can get wine cr other drinks mid a bit of cake.

Mo., recently that "It Is a discredit to Mlssourlans that no monu ment mark the place In Warren county where Daniel Boone was first burled," has precipitated a discussion In that part of the state on the subject of whether Boone's body ever was removed to Ken tucky. A committee composed of Nathaniel Oardare, Charles W. Thoroughman, Bene dict Thoroughman, J. H. Tuttle and Rev. R. E. McQule of Montgomery, Mo., ha visited his burial place, and after gather ing all Information available relative to the remains of this pioneer, decided unani mously that the body of Boone was never moved to Kentucky. The delegation which came out from that state to remove the bddy In 1845 was composed of strangers, and there being no tombstone to mark the graves In that old cemetery, the men made th grlevlous error of taking back to the native state the dust of a stranger who was buried near the grave of Mrs. Boone. Rev. Mr. McQule says that the mistake no doubt grew out of the fact that Panlel Boone and his wife were not burled side by side, as those who rune to remove the remains naturally expected, and were Informed. This latter day committee found at the grave an old rugged ton partly In the earth, with the following verse which. It Is said, was carved by Boone himself, with the old knife that he so often used In dressing game: Remember me as you pass by, As you are now so once waa I, As I am now, so you will be; Prepare for death and follow me. It was in the summer of 1845 that the deputation of John J. Crittenden. William Boone and a Mr. Swaggat came to Mis souri on the steamer Daniel Boone for the purpose of exhuming the body of Boone and conveying It back to Kentucky. It Is said that they found the grave situ ated on th land belonging to Harvey Urlswold, who at first objected to the re moval, as he Intended to build a monu. ment and otherwise beautify the place. Other neighbors and friends coincided with Griswold and supported him In his objection. They claimed that Missouri had as much right to the grave as Ken tucky, especially as the old pioneer had selected the location of his grave and had given such particular Instructions as to his burial therein. The stone house In which Boone died is suld to have been the first stone dwelling bouse erected in Missouri Respecting a question as to how nnd where Boone died, It Is found that he had a serious attack of fever in the tumtner of at the homo of Flanders Cuilowpy. He recovered suf ficiently to make a visit to the House of his son. Nathaniel Boone, on Femme Osage creek. The children heard of his Illness and we're desirous to see the old man again. It Is said that he recuperated lomewhat, and spent a f w hsppy days In the society of his children and rela tlv es. One day a fine dish of weet potatoes a dish of which he waa very fond, was . v.- ... h.,.i!x, .,..,., after hsd an attack of which he nevt". recovered. After three days' Illness he ex pired Heptember 21, 120. h"ing .X years old.. It is atd that lie had no f-ar of death, although he had never Hindu any profession of religion or united with any church. It has been written in history that h died at Deei Lick with his gun In his hands wutchlr.g for a deer. After the old settler iased away he .vas placed In the casket made by his own hands and taken to the Calloway home. The new spread rapidly of his death and a crowd of friends collected on th day th funeral to pay the last tribute of re pct to the pioneer.

In an old history of the county writ ten by W. S. Bryant and Robert Rosi, some very Interesting matter regarding the effort to remove Daniel Boone's body to Kentucky is found. Among other things It gives the following Interesting matter regarding Boone and what was then thought to be successful effort to remove the body. The writer of this history, who spent some time in this and ndjac?nt counties, looklnj up Information regarding Boone's life and death, asserted that at the time of Boone's demise, the Constitu tional convention of Missouri was In ses sion at St. Louis, and upon receipt of the Intelligence a resolution was offered by Benjamin Emmons of St. Charles that tho members wear the usual btdse of mourn ing for thirty days and adjourn for one day.
