One OF the important enterprises of
Harper's Magazine land there are many
of them now in progress in America,
Europe, and Asa), having reference to
its next years store of entertainment,
has been suddenly brought into public
notice through the expulsion of Mr..
Poultney Bigelow and Mr.. Frederic
Remington from Russia. The New York
World speaks of it as "an international
episode" and infers that the readers of
Harper's "have lost an interesting tale
ofthe two hostile countries of Russia
and Germany" It,is early to entertain
view so discouraging as that. Certain.
ly the promised story has already re-
ceived from the Gar himself q striking
motif for its first chapter, and those who
will read Mr.. Bigelow's article on "The
Cars Western Frontier" in the July
number of Harpers Magazine, will not
despair of the continuation of the story,
even if it must be confined to the Ger.
man frontier. Neither Mr.. Bigelow nor
Mr.. Remington can be 80 easily sup.
pressed.

John W. Foster, the newly appointed
Secretary of State, has been confidential
adviser 10 the Secretary for two years
past. He has been an influential agent
in the preparation and negotiation of
the treaties recently enacted, and is
thoroughly cognizant of the reciprocity
policy and the diplomatic relations of
the State department. Men of all parties
are agreed that it is one of the best ap
pointments that could be made, and it
was confirmed by the Senate without
even being referred to the committee on
foreign relations-a distinction usually
accorded only to the nominations Of ex.
Senators.

If Australians Could ONLY Vote.

As regards free trade, it seems that
the Democrats are inclined TO alter
their tactics, and, instead Of demanding
wholesale tariff changes, To ask for the
redress OF grievances in detail The
battle will rage as before lin 1881 about
Australian wool. The manufacturers
are declaring that they want Astrahan
wool, and they put in the plea of light
taxes on raw materials. The Democrats
are glad of this assistance. They argue
that if the woolen manufacturers will
help them in this campaign the sheep
farmers will be on their side in reducing
charges tariff on woolen goodsl little
later on lat next election for members
of congress We are quite able to
understand the value to Australia of a
Democratic victory.-Melbourne Argus.

other legal proceedings against him.

MORE DYNAMITE FOR cALAMITNTEs
Massachusetts' Commissioner of Labor
Sustains the Peek Report.

sustains tho Peek Report.
We have before pointed ont that the
report of the Democratic commissioner
of labor Of Indiana obtained results sim
liar TO those obtained by Commissioner
Peck, of New York, as a result of a
similar investigation into the course of
wages under The new tariff. The re-
ports are dissimilar in that, while Mr.
Peck got his information from employ
ers. Commissioner Peelle, of Indiana, OBJ
tanned his from the employees. They
agree in that they both report sub
stantial increase in wages under the
Mckinley law.
From Massachusetts comes similar
news. The annual report on manufac-
lures has just been issued. Though COW
ering a period not exactly coterminous
with that selected by Commissioner
Peck, since it takes in the two calendar
years 1890 and 1891, including three
months of the new tariffs operation in
the former, while Mr.. Peck took twelve
months almost wholly on each side of
the new tariff, yet the two reports are
sufficiently alike TO warrant a compari-
son. Here is summary Of the Massa-
chusetts report:

Thus it seems that in Massachusetts,.
rs in New York. invested capital, ma
terials used, value of product, number
employed, aggregate amount paid in
wages and the average yearly earnings
of AL employees have substantially in
creased in 1891, the first year of the new
tariff, over the preceding year.
Why do not the Mugwumps assail
Mr.. Wadlin. chief OF the Massachusetts,
bureau. who has compiled this report?
viii the Democratic national committee
appoint investigators to make him out
liar and a forger too? We think not.
In the first place their attempted in
vsstigstion Of Mr.. Peck has turned ont
30 wrstchedly for them that they have
probably sickened Of the investigating
business. Besides these labor reports
showing increased wages are becoming
so numerous that they would have a
considerable part Of the Democratic
party on investigating committees II
they Kept up the precedent inaugurated
in the case Of Commissioner Peck. But
what VII weigh most heavily with the
Democratic managers will be the knowl-
edge, bought by bitter experience. that
labor reports are mighty dangerous
