Show DAILY 6 PREMIUM GREAT SUCCESS A r 4. MM i' . SATISFACTORY TO' EMPLOYER AND EMPLOYE. It Hat Espacially Provan a Sourca of Economy in Mining Operations. One of the moat satisfactory of the labor problem In metal na mines Is the premium system, says the Mining and Scientific Press. This has been applied with marked success In various manufacturing enterprises, and It has also had a fair trial In mining,, and without exception as far as known, the results were satisfactory to both employer and employe. The experienced miner knowa about what Is expected of him by the foreman or superintendent, and he also knows that If he falls very short of the requirement an Investigation Is likely to follow which may result In his disadvantage. It, however, he knows that earnest industry and .additional effort will meet with not only appreciation, but substantial reward, he Is Inclined to try and dam the Increased compensation. In many mining operations time Is an Important factor, due to the fact that large capital Is Invested, and delayed accomplishment of the work means increased Interest charge, and If, consequently Increased expense. then, the work can be advanced more rapidly by any system or method of encouragement to the workmen. It Is well to offer this stimulus to their energies. Though the paying of a bonus Is direct Increase in expense, Jt may prove. If properly flxe, a stroke of economy. It may be urged that If the workman can do more work under the encouragement of a premium he Is not doing his full duty under the ordinary has wage system, but experience proven that It is the part of wisdom for the management to show a Just appreciation of extra effort on the part of the workman by Increased pay. In no branch of mining Is this more completely exemplified than In shaft sinking. Under stated conditions the work should advance a rate at about which competent Judges will not greatly disagree. The miner Is also aware of what this rate of advance should be. In almost every Instance the offer of a premium will result In a surprising Increase in this rate of monthly progress In shaft sinking. The economy of the premium system Is shown by the saving of cost per foot charged to all top expenses, superintendence and general expense, beside Interest on Invested capital. These various amounts In the aggregate usually Justify the payment of a bonus as great as $10 a foot for. each 'foot made In excess of the minimum amount of progress required for a months work. If the rate' required Is 100 feet in a single month It is good business to offer $10 for each foot sunk In excess of this requirement It requires good Judgment to determine the minimum, but this can gener ally be safely fixed after two or three months careful observation of the work accomplished as related to the conditions under which it Is A GLADSTONE ANECDOTE. ' The sarcastic cheer Is very common, and I recall one fatal example of Its use, says Henry Norman In the Century. Mr, Gladstone was once drawing very remarkable conclusions from some figures an art In which he was an unapproached master. A member on the other aide laughed out a Hear, hear!

Then he turned back to the speaker. "Sir," he said, the honorable gentleman laughs.

The next time the honorable member laughs, he continued In honeyed tones, 1 would advise him I would venture to counsel him to ornament his laugh to decorate It with an Idea. Aeuts Rheumatism.

T0WNE ANALYZES THE REPUBLICAN PLATFORM He Says That it Is Made for Dopes and Is other Adroit Effort to Delude TUESDAY, JUNE 2S, 1904. Our Big June Sale After a careful reading of the Republican platform adopted by the Chiformer Senator cago convention Charles A. Towne, who abandoned the Republican party eight years ago and Is now one of the most brilliant of New Yorks Democratic orators; analysed It plank by plank, for the New York World. The platform of the Chicago convention Is an excellent example of Republican platform building, said Mr. Towne. It Is adroit rhetorical, specious, retrospective, platitudinous, vainglorious, ambiguous and adaptable. The mechanism of that party Is beyond comparison the most perfect In all the history of political organisations. Subservient to the purposes of the powerful few. It has borrowed from the latter, as Its managers, attorneys and apologists, the ablest and shrewdest men In the country, disciplined In finesse, cynically expert In human nature, past grand masters In These men can delude, opportunism. threaten, cajole, and be complaisant, while merciless In the pursuit of their pseudo-patrioti- c, purposes.
