The Conspiracy of Silence.

Notwithstanding the immense number
of accidents to railway employees, MAIN
ing them for life, and with fatal results
to many, it is noticeable that mention of
these accidents seldom appear in the
daily press. 1t is only by special inves-
ugation that the real facts in regard to
their frequency are CLEANED. This doubt
less comes from the desire on the part of
managers of railway corporations to
conceal defects in management to which
most OF these accidents are attributable.
In Difference to their wishes the great
dailies Systematically suppress such
news So does the associated press.
AS evidence of this statement we have
before US circular letter of ''instruc-
lions" issued by certain newspaper.

A Pleasant Surprise.

1t will be quite pleasant surprise to
many farmers to learn that they are
prospecting as never before; somehow
there has been lurking suspicion that
the 81 per cent. depreciation in farm and
produce values was not indicative of
prosperity. Their doubts will be entirely
dispelled by the soft cooling of the tariff

have all they could get by any posi-
bility by independent action, and besides
this there is comparative peace between

They subsequently said their family name

Twenty Acres ana a Living.

A correspondent of The Ohio Farmer
declares that any energetic man not
afraid to work can bny on credit ten TO
twenty acres of land, rich or poor, near
village of not less than 900 inhabit-
ants, and in few years not only pay
for the land, but make living besides.
He himself has bought twenty acres in
this way, and in five years finds him
self not only out of debt, but with i'm
provements on his place worth $500. At
this rate no farmer apparently need de-
spair Of getting on.
The correspondent was offered the
second year Of his occupancy seventy
five dollars an acre for the land. He
could now get $500 an acre, so much has
he added to its value, but he has no wish
to sell. He is laying up money. He
explains some of his methods. He has
been a close student of agricultural
literature both in books and papers, and
he attributes much of his success to this

For instance, on the one vegetable,

cannot prepare it fast enough for his

generally is to find his own customers

The following extract is from Indus
tries, a London trade and commercial
newspaper, of July %, 1892 The points
made are well worth remembering, in
order to silence the senseless yawp of
the free traders in the United States:
1.-THE workmen, it must be confessed,
have not hitherto looked TO the tariff
in vain. They have not only enjoyed
a high rate of wages, but they also
have had an increasingly high rate for
a number of years past. Labor has
nearly doubled in value in all iron and
steel works in the United States during
the last twenty years. Within the
same period there has been a general
reduction in the price Of commodities,
so that labor has enjoyed the benefit of
high wages and low prices. To the
latter there have been notable excep-
tons, and especially in reference TO
house rents and clothing, but that has
not been a sufficient offset to the gem
orally higher range of wages in COM
parison of conditions as between the
United States and the United King
dom, and the American workman has
been justified in appealing to his wages
standard as an evidence Of his general
prosperity,
