Those editors and stump speakers whose
stock in trade has consisted largely of de-
annexation of the Mckinley tariff law, will
find a good deal of food for reflection in the
report made in the Senate on Tuesday by
the finance committee, as the result
of an investigation made into
prices and wages as affected by the Nc
kinley tariff law. The report gives the
result of an investigation into prices and
wages on the first of each month, from
June |, 1889, to Sept. /, 1891. and the in
quiry was directed 10 the ascertainment,
first, of the course of retail prices of 2l5
articles of general consumption in seventy
cities and towns in different parts
Of the country: second. the course
of wholesale prices for the same ar
ticles at seven principal distributing centres;
third, the farm prices of leading agricultural
products at representative points selected
by the Department of Agriculture; fourth.
the relative rate of wages in the cities
and towns where price statistics were collect
ed in fifteen general occupations; fifth, the
course of wages in special industries; sixth,
similar statistics for retail prices and wages
in Great Britain covering the same period.
The figures and statistics are intensely in
teresting. and the general result is that they
show that there has been steady rise in
wages and decline in the price of articles
that go to make up the cost of living in the
United States, while in Great Britain just
the reverse obtains.

CONGRESS Nearly Ready to Adjourn.

1t is expected that the present session of
Congress will adjourn Thursday or Friday
of this week, as there are now but two I'M
portant measures to be disposed of before
this action takes place. These are the
Worlds Fair amendment of the sundry
civil appropriation bill and the pending
anti-options bill in the Senate; and when
finally disposed of the session will termi-
nate. The provision inserted by the House
in the Senate Worlds Fair bill prohibiting
the employment of Pinkerton detectives,
may lead to much debate. There is
evidence of some filbnstering in the House
on the matters yet to he settled. which is
done to enable the members who have in
tentions of this nature to learn the strength
Of the friends and the opponents of the pro-
posed government appropriation in aid of
the fair. After the Worlds Fair item is set
tied the members of the House look to an
immediate adjournment of Congress.

Farmers Experiments.

IL has been the policy of the Maine Ex-
of our own State in studying the applica-
ton of well known facts in connection with
plant growth aud soils to the business of
producing crops. To this end experimental
sets of fertilizers have been sent from time
to time to farmers who desired to under
take work of this kind Eight such sets
were shipped to farmers last spring. Re-
ports have been received from five of them
which are of local interest in the neighbor-
hoods where the experiments were carried
out; which have been published in full in
the report of the station just issued. These
sets of fertilizers supplied phosphoric acid,
potash and nitrogen. separately, and in
various combinations, and were designed to
test the ability of the soil to supply one or
more of these substances to the crop in such
superhuoas or improbable.
The gentlemen making these reports were
II. c. Townsend, Fort Fairfield; +. A.
Herrick, Esston: George Ingraham, Houi-
ton: Charles s. Pope. Manchester, and J.
q. Winsiow, St. Adams. Each experiment
involved the cultivation of sixteen one
tw entieth acre plots-no small task of
itself--and the reports as published are
given with minute detail. After giving the
somew hat elaborate tables of the reports.
Director Jordan in his summary made up
from them says: These experiments
demonstrate that commercial fertilizers
may be used to great advantage
BY all Of the experimenters. They
also show that in order to obtain the great
est profit they mus, be used with knowl-
edge of what the soil can furnish as well as
the requirements of the crop. In view of
the fact. that in four ont of Eve of these
experiments the increase in the crop was
produced at least expense with either pot
ash. or phosphoric acid, or combination of
the two. il would be well for the exferi-
mentors to continue their studies of the eff
feet Of application Of those materials in a
rotation of croiN in which the clover has a
place, relying on the clover TO keep up the
nitrogen supply. In the fifth experiment,
in which not only the largest crop, but the
crop in which the increase was produced al
least expense. came from manuring with
muriate of potash and nitrate Of soda, it
would be advisable to try an experiment to
zee IL the clover in rotation could not be
made to take the place Of the nitrate of
soda $

Strikes and lockouts.
+ American Economist.

There was a time when strikes were very
rare, indeed. 1t was when capital owned
labor and kept it in subsection and on the
verge of starvation. Slaves can't strike.
Education and enlightenment taught la
Dor its own power, then it struck for great
er liberty.
Greater liberty caused it to strike for
greater pay.
With greater pay came increased oppor-
tuni.ies for intellectual improvement, and
organization followed.
Now with united front wOrkingmen
pressed on for greater and ever greater
concessions from their employers, which
granted. feed their desire for more.
From the defensive they now take the
offensive, demanding instead of entreating.
That is the way they do in this country,
because here the laborer has been elevated
to the plane of the capitalist, enjoying
greater liberty and receiving higher wages
than anywhere else on earth.
1t is not so in other countries. In India
and China and Russia strikes are even now
as seldom heard of AS they were among the
ancestors of our American workingmen 800
years ago, when they wore the collars OF
their lords Labor is too weak and servlle
to strike in those countries.
As we ascend the scale of enlightenment
and liberty, we find labor organizations and
labor disturbances becoming ever more and
more frequent.
In Spain labor strikes sometimes. In
Germany it strikes more frequently. In
France still more frequently.
If to better the condition of the working
people, to point the way to education, to
greater liberty and independence, to foster
and develop the genius for intelligent organ
ization among them, aud thus TO lift them
from a position of seryile dependence on
their masters to plane of equality and
equal advantage with their employers--if to
do these things is to cause strikes and lock
outs. then does protection cause strikes and
lockouts But on no other possible assnmp-

New Mown Hay.
Harper's Magazine. ]

What is there in the fragrance of new
mown hay that surpasses in this oenlt power
almost all other perfumess Is it that the
very essence of imperishahle vitality, the
earth-mother's strength and enfolding love,
is contained in the grass-the patient, long
suffering, sturdy ,mutitudious, beautiful grass
which feeds the cattle and carpets the hills
and creeps to the very edge of the roadside,
and springs up in the ruts and spreads its
soft thick coyerlet over the graves of cur
dead? Nothing else so rests the tired eye
so springs back under the tired foot. When
the vagrant impulse awakens in our breasts
the nomad instinct stirs, we are fain to go
where the grasses wave and the old trees
lean lovingly over them.
The weayied man of business, hard
pressed with the routine of the counting
room. becomes a boy once ilcre If he can
hut secure holiday in the time of making
hay. He goes into the field with buoyant
step and YOU hear his voice ringing in a
JOYOUS shout as he counts the rolling swaths.
How children love to tumble in the hay
and how defrauded they are of one OF
childhood's chief delights if they never
know the glory of riding homewari TO the
barn on top of the grea, hillowy load

mown hay brings back the days of the war
the long vivid, thrilling years when the land
was full of marching men, of banners,
drums and bugles-when every day had IT'S
fierce exeitements, its civilizations and ITS
depressions. To think how mothers and
wives and sweethearts then watched the
papers in the summer--for the hardest bat
ties were fought not when wintry rigors
bound the earth, but when the birds sang,
the lilies bloomed, the apples ripened apace,
and on far Northern uplands the farmers
made hay.
To one household, perched in crag of
the mountains, there arrived great tn
umph in one of those summers. Their
Harry had been made brigadier-the boy
had risen step by step from the ranks, SO
brave, so manful was the stuff in him.
Father came in from the bayfield, with the
letter that told of it in his hand.
The very young do not understand this
trick of association. They have yet to grow
up to the knowledge that souls remain young
though bodies change and take on new im-
pressions with the years. They perceive
an old man, an old woman and sometimes
smile at the sentiment which seems to them
to linger untimely in these withered per-
sonalities. Not so. Youth is crude. Sen
timent does not reach its full flower till peo-
pie have had time to live. So we moralize
over the rich sweetness of the new mown
hay.

The Homestead Tragedy.
american Economist.

1t is passing strange that any one can be
found who does not grieye over the bloody
work at Homestead. Pennsylvania. Here
were a score of human lives destroyed,
several scores of our feilowmen dan
gerously wounded, and hundreds of
others so badly injured that they will not
recover for many days. Yet there is no
denying that the politicians interested in the
election of Mr.. Cleveland positively rejoice
in this blood letting. They see in it hope
that the aroused passions of labor may
lead it to do that which reason wonld
never allow it to do-to tear
down the temple on its head in the blind
endeayor to crush its employer. For while
it might seriously injure capitalists engaged
in American manufacturing, to vote free
trade into power next November, it would
usher in an era of blank despair for Ameri-
can working people and their families.

Another addition to our new navy
dipped the water at Philadelphia, yesterday.
This was the protected cruiser Columbia,
which il one Of the most important of the
vessels comprising our new steel navy
She has very large displacement for an
unarmored craft, as she is tl2 feet long,
* foot beam, and drawing % i-2 feet of
water. This gives her displacement of
1850 tons. This exceeds by 100 tons the
displacement of the armored cruiser Maine,
anil by 1850 that of the battle ship Texas.
But il the sea speed and the coal-carrying
capacity, or radius of action, of this vessel
that have created the greatest interest in
her. and this interest has been enhanced by
the character OF portions Of her machinery.
Her engines are of the triple screw,
vertical, triple expansion type, with
total horse power of 81 900. She has a
guaranteed speed of from q to z2 knots
per hour. Hence it is evident that as n
commerce destroyer the Columbia is unsur

eight four-inch-rapid fire guns and an eight
inch rife, being armament more than suffer-

own vital parts are completely covered by

the maximum. She can keep the seas to an
extent hitherto unknown among steam war
vessels. She carries 2000 tons of coal,
and at ten knots that would take her 25 $50
knots. In other words at easy steam she
could circumnavigate the globe without
cosling. and could, with full speed run
down rapidly any ship she might see. The

well be q great event.
