When this country conclusion its war with Spgin there was a notable expansion of industrial and commercial activity, such as_ was. witnessed in Germany after her encounter with France in 1870, victerious military campaign. and such as usually follows a But in Great Britain, notwithstanding that the result of her conflict in South Africa was the vanquishment of the Boers, there is anything but a flood of prosperity in trade. The number.of persons unable to obtain work within the limits of the kingdom is conservatively computed at half a million, and the report comes from London that it has been found necessary to place police guards at the gates of the dock yards to prevent violence among the crowds assembling there to struggle for the chance of earning a day’s wages. The London County Council is considering plans for relieving the widespread distress, and newspapers have started subscriptions for the same purpose. There are bad times in England. Germany is faring even worse. What is the meaning of the Socialist uprising in that country, which has grown so powerful that the leading journalistic organ of the movement. ~~ -is daily bearding the Emperor? Socialism in Germany, as was Populism in the United States, is largely a product of the desperation induced by hard times. Germany resounded to the crash of toppling banks. It is not long since She has gone through financial throes almost equal to those which shook the United States in 1893. She is now in a political and economic crisis not far different from that which in this country led to the nomination of Bryan for the Presidency i in 1896. nee Dc: newspapers aad orators blatently Saactiad that American prosperity was not the result of American fiscal policies, but a thing that came of itself. Business in this.country was prosperous, everywhere was prosperous. they said, because business The same oracles asserted while Cleveland and Democracy were enthroned at Washington that the panic and the depression which followed the panic were caused not by Democratic folly, but by widespread natural laws affecting business in general, though at the very time whem Coxey’s Army and Kelly’s Army of unemployed men were rampaging in Ohio and Iowa, factories in Great ‘Britain and Germany were advertising for help. The fact is that the Republican legislation enacted under the administration of President McKinley produced conditions which opened avenues to employment for all the men in the United States willing to work. The fact is that the American Protective Tariff is doing the good which it was expected to do—keeping American workingmen at work at _ good wages, at a time when workingmen in competing countries are walking the streets looking for jobs. The fact is that Democratic Free-Trade newspapers are blind teachers, who would mislead the American people to their undoing. Happily the American people are intelligent and cannot be easily misled. The contrast between industrial conditions abroad and industrial conditions here is a demonstration that when the American people voted for a Republican Congress they made no mistake. Nolesand Comments One of the many instances that show how economies are worked in small cities where electric railways are operated is furnished in Northampton, Mass., where the city saved over $7,000 this year by transporting crushed rock for highway construction by electric cars instead of dolp be work by teams. When it was announced, some years ago, that the most famous specimen of Greek architecture,the Parthenon, was jo danger of collapsing, offers of money came from all parts of the world. Tbe Greek Government refused them all, but appropriated a sum with the aid of which the restoration has now been completed. The latest recipe for longevity is, ‘Be a millionaire.’. The average age ‘of 206 persons who died in England last year, none of them worth less than half a million dollars, was seventythree years. A quarter of these wealthy individuals were over sighty years old, and six of them were over ninety. . The Italians have a proverb, ‘Where the eun does not go, the doctor will go.” Itis known that direct sunlight is a deadly enemy of the germs of contagious diseases. It is also known that public schools are the greatést dissem+ inators of ‘contagious diseases. Putting these facts together, German experts have come to the conclusion that it is criminal folly to build schoolhouses (as is done in this country, too) with all the windows facing north. They should face the south, and have shades for summer use. Mrs. Carrie Nation has begun suit against the city of Wichita for $10,000 for ‘mental anguish and nervous: distreas’’ which she suffered from an atyack by a mob there when she had returned from a raid upon saloons. The city might perhaps set up as a defense that Mre. Nation is something of a mob herself when ehe gets out with her little ax. Dealers “Indicted.
