THE second edition of the December
Worlds Fair Cosmopolitan brings the
total up to the extraordinary figure of
100000 copies. an unprecedented result
in the history of magazines. Fou hun
dred thousand copies 200 tons -9I.00O-
coo pages enough to ill 200 wagons
with 1000 pounds each-in "a single line
in close order this would make a file of
wagons more than a mIle and a half
long. This means not less than 2.0O0.00O
readers. scattered throughout every town
and village in the United States. The
course of the Cosmopolitan for the past
twelve months may be compared to that
of a rolling snowball: more subscribers
mean more money spent in buying the
best articles and the best illustrations in
the world; better illustrations and better
articles mean more subscribers. and SO
the two things are acting and reacting
upon each other until it seems probable
that the day is not far distant when the
magazine publisher will be able to give
so excellent an article that it will claim
the attention of every intelligent reader
in the country.

Cncap Australian Ooi.

During the three seasons ended June
80. 1892. the shipments of woo! from
Austraiiaincreased BY no less than I3j.-
quantity. During the year ended june
30. 1898. there was al increase of 90
600 bales additional. making the total
increase i'll the Australian WOO clip
nearly 500. 900 bales within four years.
The consequence of this enormous
growth i'll the Australian production
has been Il drop Of 30 per cent III prices,
and protection alone has saved the
American woolgrowers from being CON-
PEELED to sell their wool for the some
money. The Australian clip is liable
to extraordinary and unprecedented
growth in the future, because artesian
wells have been sunk in New South
Wales and Queensland, affording an
abundant supply of pure water to irri-
gate the arid lands of the tropics, thus
doubling the capacity of the soil.
The writer has lived and worked on a
large Australian sheep ranch in the
north of Queensland. There were lOO,-
900 sheep running on 200. 900 acres of
land. One man, paid IS per week and
his rations of a little -four, tea, meat
and sugar. cared for every 10, 900 sheep.
He had a horse that fed itself as the
sheep did. The sheep lands of Australia
are valued at S. per acre if they will not
carry one sheep per acre, at $40 If car
rying one sheep, at SIS if carrying one
and one-half sheep, and at $50 pc r acre
if the land carries two or more sheep.
There are over $500. 900 acres of
land in one colony of Australia alone.
held by only 146 persons, or SO, 900
acres to each person. The cheap value
of the land has been shown. 1t is taxed
at IA per cent only after its value has
reached Sl2. 500. the amount below
that not being taxed. Farmers in the
United States cannot compete with

Speaking OF the second free trade pc
nod in the history Of the United States,
from 1916 to 1894, when Great Britain
poured her fabrics into our market in
an overwhelming torrent and far below
cost, in order to crush out American in
dustries. Horace Greeley said:
At the close of the second war with
England. peace found this country dotted
with furnaces and factories which had
sprung up under the precarious shelter
of embargo and war. These. not vet
firmly established. found themselves sud
denly exposed to "A relentless and deter
mined foreign competition. Great Brit
ain poured her fabrics. far below cost,
upon II markets in a perfect deluge.
Our manufactures went down like grass
before the mower. and our agriculture
and the wages of labor speedily follow
ed. Financial prostratiOn was general.
and the presence of debt was universal.
In New England fully one-fourth of
the property Went through the sheriff's
mill, and the prostration was scarcely
less general elsewhere. In Kentucky
the presence of debt was simply intoler-
able. In New York, the leading mer-
chants, in 1917, united in a memorial
to congress to saw our as
