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.

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

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

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.
