THE WORKERS— THE WEST. 



Illus- 



By Walter A. Wyckoff, Assistant Professor of Political Economy at Princeton University. 



trated by W. R. Leigh. i2mo, $1.50. 



With this second volume Professor Wyckoff closes his absolutely unique narrative of the experiences of a 



scholar in earning: his living; as an unskilled laborer. These Western pictures are full of life and color, for the 



author describes his life in the terrible slums of Chicago, the Anarchists, the labor unions, and the starving; un- 



employed, as well as the wheat farms, deep mines, and catile plains of the Far West. The Homestead says : 

 " Mr. Leigh's illustrations are simply perfect. Mr. Wyckoff 's papers get right down to life as no previous study 

 of the kind has ever done."
