4 CENSTS or WAGES.

An important bill is now before Congress
which has received hearty approval, il is stated,
not only of prominent Republicans, but of lead
ing Democrats, such as Senator Carlisle, Ed
ward Atkinson, cx-Spcakcr Mills David \.
Wells and others, to provide for a continuance
OF the valuable report Of wages which was
prepared for the last census and embodied in
Volume XXX This comparison differs 'from
any other hitherto published in that it was
mine of information from which thinking men
and students Of all parties have been able TO
draw their own conclusions. NO attempt was
made in the report to condcnsc the items, to
arrange them according to some statistical the

comparisons Oh the same lines, so that the vast
body of material embraced i'm Volume Xxx of
the Tenth Census may be ntelligcntly com
pared with the official information obtained for
another decade. 1t is also proposed to extend
the scope Of the investigation somewhat, with
out altering its character. This continuation
of Volume Xxx has seemed from the first to be
a most essential part of the investigation OF
wages. Every attempt heretofore made, eX-
cepting by the publication Of the results OBJ
tanned by the Tenth Census has resulted in
comparisons which were liable to be dstrusted
by one party or the other because the modes
Of condensation, the omission of many estab
lishmentS or of some workers among many in
different establishments, have been open to
misconstruction as designed to give the results
partisan bearing. II seems Of the highest
impOi lance that the official record so admirably
prepared for the census Of 1880 should be
brought down to the present time as far as
possible, and this could doubtless be done at
relatively small expense 10 the Government, if
those selected for the work are familiar with
the methods pursued ten years ago, and under
stand bow to obtain from employers and from
working organizations information of precisely
the same character. No reason appears for
partisan difference regarding the importance
of such a measure, and the great value of the
results to be obtained to the thinking men and
leaders of all parties should render it easy to

tool, charge of the party. Some of the "prop-
cr leaders, so-called kicked, some sullled, some
hurst into tears All of them said it was a
fatal mistake for the party to treat its proper
leaders, in that way. Still they felt confident
that the party would presently repent and call
them back into the leadership. They were
dead sure that their candidate, Grover Glove
land. would be nominated for President. The
next thing that happened was the mldwlnter
convention: and the seizure of the New Ork
delegation for David b. Hill, who is not
"propcr Ieadern Since then the Democratic
majority in the Legislature have been carry
ing things with high hand, perpetrating all
sorts of rascalities in the interest OF HILL And
the "proper leaders have done nothing to him
der the other fellows or help themselves. They
undertook to carry Rhode Island on their great
issue of tariff REFORM and sent their greatest
living statesman into the State for that pur-
pose. They camo out badly beaten.
Who, then, are the "prOper leaders,? Are
they the men who have been led by the nose
by Hill and the Tammany crowd, or are they
the men who have led them as they pleased
and kicked thcm out when they had no further
use for them?

There is a practical way of testing the ELI
cheney of the Reciprocity policy. That is to
ascertain how large a percentage of the total
impoltations Of sugar, molaS>cS. coffee and
hides has been regulated since October, 1890,
by the Adrich amendment 10 the Tariff Act.
SO far as sugar is concerned the object Of the
amendment has been almost wholly accom-
plshcd. The treaties which have been ncgo-
tiatcd or arc in I'm advanced stage of diplo-
matte adjustment cover nearly 90 per cent of
the imported sugar supply. Foreign producers
Of cane and beet sugar havo secured pcrma-
ncnt free market in the United States, but in
return concessions have been granted TO n long
list of agricultural products and manufactures.
Great progress has also been made in securing
similar concessions in return for the free mar
kct for coffee, ~ will be seen from the follow
ing exhibit

force those countries to make commercial con-
cessions to the United States, since they cannot
afford to be crowded out of the American mar
ket by Brazil Mexico and Central America.
when that result can be accomplished 90 per
cent of the coffee supply will be regulated by
Reciprocity, or practically the same proportion
as for sugar
About one-third Of the imported supplies OF
poat.skins and other hides comes from England
and its East Indian colonies. AS the Reciprocity
amendment cannot be enforced against markets
which are open to American exports, these are
added in the following table to the imports from,
countries which either are or soon will be reg
uated by Reciprocity:

Total Imports
From this exhibit it appears that 81 per cent
Of the imported supply Of hides IS either resn-
lated by Reciprocity or Free Trade; that about
per cent is affected by the Presidents recent
proclamations, and that 30 FER cent remains
as margin for future Reciprocity conventions.
In round numbers the total importations Of sugar,
moIasses coffee and hides amounted last year
70 $3.50. 900, 600. About "a per cent Sl95,-
900 600. is virtually regulated by equitable
conditions of Reciprocity Democratic critics
who are contendng that Reciprocity does not
amount TO anything but is simply "a humbug
and 4 sham" would better open their eyes to
the facts.

and there are no signs that it will. On the
other hand, it is plain that the Democracy IS
losing rather than gaining by prolonglng the
session. Hence the widespread desire for ad-
iournment, which will undoubtedly be brought
about as soon as possible-that is, as soon as
conflicting interests can be reconciled and the
necessary business transacted.

The effort which the Republican leaders in
the Legislature are making to secure the pres
ence of every Republican Senator and Assem-
blyman in the house to which he belongs con-
stantly from this time until the close of the
session cannot be too highly commended. More
than once recently, if all the Republicans had
been on hand and had voted as they should,
vicious jobs would have been summary killed.
Steady attention to duty and uremitting vigi-
lance on the part of the minority are now de-
manded. In them is the peoples only hope.

The sad story of the drowning Of eight boys
and their instructor in Boston IIarbor is not
devoid of the element of heroism. The boys
showed the result of good discipline when their
boat was capsized. and had relief been any
where near all would have been saved. They
clung to their craft as long As possible, facing
death without finching in the icy waters.
Two, by happy chance, drifted ashore. The
