Gladstone o,. Wages and Prices

Mr.. Gladstone, in recent speech,
made a careful statement to the effect
that he had no doubt wages during the
last thirty years had risen more than
the prices, Says the London Eto"1
mist:
"ihcrc is no one more entitled, rs an
economic authority, to have his opln,,
ion recorded than Mr.. Gladstone, ana
it is very positively on the side men
we must all wish to see established,
The satisfaction felt at me gre
growth of business and wealth during
the last thirty years would Cti'al'lt
be much qualified if the condition ol
the laboring masses had not improveu
greatly On the theoretical question
Of the rise of prices, it is also most I'm
po,tant to have the recotd OF Mr.
Gladstonc's opinion that tln' rise IS
much exaggerated by cominon repoli
that there are many important articles
which have ia len in price, and tha'
what gives rise to the talk OF the din
Guilty of living being greater Than i"r-
merry, isl rise in the scale ol living,
We believe Ills is the conclusion oi
the best economists and statsiicians
who have given attention to the mat
ter. but MIR. Gladstone's statements
should help to diifuse it among those
who we do not specially study these
subjects and are aptto reflect too hasti'

A Coon TINE COMING. The New York
Sun, reviewing the financial condition of
the country, arrives at the cheerful con-
clusion that a few years of economy and
prudence will conquer all difficulties, and
then the country will take fresh start
of prosperity. In the meantime there
will be no imitation of the currency, sim
ply because it is impracticahlc. All the
alarms upon that subject are absurd. and
are manufacturedin in the interest of Wall
street spectators. Recovery is TO come
through honest labor and self denial The
eItrayagant expenditures Of the govern
ment can be largely reduced, and the
whole machinery recognized with say
ing tf forty or fifty millions year. Thai
reduction will afford great relief, and tn,
example will be wholesome for econom,
