The FIRST SIX MONTHS.

The semi-annual reports of the mer-
camille agencies are interesting and en-
c~ouraging reading. For the six months
ending June 30 the volume of trade
was thirteen per cent larger than
during the corresponding period In
1889, and the increase for the month of
June was a trifle more than fourteen
per cent. compared with the preceding
June. Failures have been fewer on the
whole and the liabilities of failing firms
have been slightly smaller. Railroad
earnings t.ius far reported for June
show a gain of about ten per cent. over
last year, but they also show less gain
for the first half of the month. This
may be due in part to further cutting
of rates and attempts to adjust east
bound freight wars having thus far
failed, and strife between Canadian
lines and those nearest the border
having grown more bitter. The mile
age of railroads built SO far this year
is 1900 rs against I,is0 during the first
half of last year. Monetary appre-
tensions, excited by the exports of
gold, have been allayed by heavy dis
b%ursements i'm dividends and interest,
said to be the largest ever made at this
season. Exclusive of government pay
ments they are estimated at S~74,000,00O,
against SOL 100000 last year. Crop re-
ports on the whole are good, and the
farmers feel much encouraged. AS "A
whole the country appears to be in a
fairly prosperous condition.

pedia britannica as a whole cannot be
protected by copyright I'm America.
But II happens that all the articles on
American topics were written by
American authors. and these articles
were copyrighted here before being in
corporated in the encyclopedia itself.
The defense was that the republication
of these works abroad, as part of a pub
location incapable Of copyright here,
left them in the same unprotected con-
dition as the rest of the work. Judge
Shipman holds, however, that IF the
holder has a valid copyright, II is valid
against any unpermitted reprint Of his
book; and the fact that his book Is
bound up in a volume with fifty other
books, each of which is open to the
public, Is immaterial." This is good
law and common sense.
The American pirates al still steal
the uncopyrighted portion of the en-
encyclopedia, but they will be compelled
to revise their plates and plans, since
they are restrained from publishing
any more volumes like those they have
issued already or were about to issue.

The admission of Idaho is said to
have been a serious disaster to the
Connecticut flag manufacturers. When
the states of Montana, Washington
and the two Dakotas were admitted,
the manufacturers flooded the country
with circulars imploring all good pa
triots to call in their thirty-eight starred
flags as obsolete, and purchase new
ones with a glorious galaxy of forty
two. Idaho's admission raises the
number of asterisks to forty
three, and as the Connecticut manu-
facturers have a mammoth stock of
the forty-two brand on hand, they are
seeing stars in a most unpleasant man
ner.

1t was only three years q that the pub
Usher got what was according to the view
Of many, q mad idea of printing
a paper for the subscription price
of one pre or three crowns per
year. 1t would be impossible TO get any
lower. A little over 1900 subscriptions
came in on the start, but without adyeI-
tisements IL was printed at a loss. The
lads did not flow i'm like the subscrip-
tons. Well, the are system was again
set i'm motion In another direction. After
the paper had been going for three
months IL commenced to have q wide

Al the beginning of the publication
there were about 100 newsboys; now there
are Ever 2J0 little fellows who reap the

the total 5000 and over. Now the adver-
