. Richardson, Bridgeport, Conn.flu- admirable editorial in last monthsRailway and Locomotive Engineeringon the Increase of Wages for Shopmen1bits the nail on the head. The meagerrat mi wages at which railroad machinistsand other mechanics have been workingfor many years was a reproach to theservice, and the Government administra-tion has done well in making a liberal in-crease in the remuneration to the skilledartisans who have been overlooked in thegeneral trend of increased wages. Thehigh prices of commodities and the ad-vanced cost of living have been realizedby the Government, and not only havethey performed an act of justice to theartisan, but they have shown their appre-ciation of the really reduced purchasingpower of the dollar, in a mostpractical and satisfactory way. Thesetilings have made it imperative thatsomething in tins way should be done,but in other years, perhaps not soparticularly marked as the present warperiod, nobody seemed to have thought ofthe railroad mechanic.
