The comparison above shows, in many cases, quite decided improvement in the condition of the worker, and in but few cases retrogression. In the article above cited, and on pages 61 and 62 of the report named, comparison is made between the aggregate of the sums deposited in the savings banks of the State during the respective years enumerated as therein appears, and it is there further remarked that "the savings banks of a State or of a Nation are the workers' depositories, and by the rise and fall of the deposits therein the workers' comparative prosperity can be measured as by a barometer." Enlarging upon that comparison it now appears as follows: That, as said, during the year 1894 there was deposited in the said banks, $97,596,712, and was withdrawn therefrom, $104,155,474, making $7,658,761 withdrawn in excess of the amount deposited. During the year 1899 there was deposited in the said banks the sum of $77,572,588, as against $71,867,176 withdrawn; there being thus deposited in excess of the amount withdrawn, the sum of $5,705,411. During the year 1901 there was deposited in the said banks the aggregate sum of $118,057,808, as against $105,505,209 withdrawn; there being thus deposited in excess of the amount withdrawn, the sum of $12,552,298. Data are not yet at hand from which can be made close comparison between the amounts deposited as against the amounts withdrawn from these banks during the current year, but such data as are available indicate that for the first eight months of 1902 the aggregate of the sums deposited in said banks averaged, approximately, over $1,000,000 per month in excess of the withdrawals. Altogether, as regards its condition, labor, generally, in this State has little cause for complaint as to its progress within the last two years. Butchers, No. 136.
