The Boston Herald having observed
'hat the Democrats in Prof. Wilson's
district dragged him through the streets
in a decorated wagon. carried him on
their shoulders and howled Justify for
their candidate at the recent convention
which nominated him. remarks that
"the candidate who undertakes to run
ahead OF William L. Wilson in the Sec
ond District Of West Virginia, will have
a hard row to hoe"
The Herald mistakes noise for popu-
larity and horseplay for commendation.
Congressman Wilson's majority at the
last election was only 1l3 out
OF total vote of 42,70l. He
had vote of 2l,s07 against vote
for Wisner, Republican, Of 20, 756. the
other ballots being cast for the Prohibi-

dates.
There are any number of Republicans
in West Virginia capable of hoeing
row like that successfully.

What Is the meaning of the words when we
speak OF the accumulation of wealth? AS the
process Is commonly understood, to accumu-
late is TO gather together something already
existing: and hence the popular impression
that men get their wealth by taking some-
thing out OF the hands of other men and ar-
propriating il to their own uses. There could
hardly be a greater misconception. The ac-
emulation Of wealth by all the honest pro-
cesses Of production or by buying or selling,
is really the creation of wealth: the production
or something that would absolutely have had
no being had IL not been for the personal ex
ertions of its creator. Yet this fact is only
dimly comprehended by most men who
bother their heads with social problems.
Sometimes ii Is not comprehcnded at all.
Men seem to go upon the assumption that
there is just so much wealth In the world,
and that lie is struggle TO see who shall

fact the fortune of every man who earns
money by lawful means is simply his part

we enjoy, rests upon the principle of |

business, and the lowering Of the tariff
will double aud. in some cases, quad
ripple the importations, while il curtails
domestic production on the same articles
by permitting the cheaper foreign made
goods TO drive out the home production.
We are told by the free traders that
the American markets are not large
enough To consume the American ont
put, and that we have been denied the
privilege of foreign markets because of
the protective system, and this has been
given as the reason for production
ana stagnation. IL is Fundamental
physical law that two bodies cannot oc-
cupy the same space at the same time,
and II foreign goods are coming into
this country they must displace Ameri-
can goods to like amount, else there
would be no room for them.
The idea that the importer pays the
tax IN any case, whether that tax be one
cent or one dollar, is the height of abb
surdiy. He acts merely as the transfer
agent between the foreign producer and
the retailer in this country. and simply

he would make no less if they were in

lowered orraised the price below or above
the domestic product of similar kind,
thus increasing or diminishing the sale |
OF The foreign product by competition.
When. therefore, the tax is lowered so |
as to permit the foreign goods to come
into the American markets at a less
price than the home products can be
sold for, the heart of the importer is
made glad because it doubles and quad
ruples his business, and accordingly
doubles or proportionately increases his
profits.

THE OWNERSHIP OF HOMES.

The Census Bureau presents in it

the ownership of homes in this country
and as it is the first of its kind eve,

reveals prosperous state of affairs moi

and homes, and $3.50 per cent. hire

cent, no encumbrance.
The number of resident owners OF
land In the United States is 6 ,O66. 4f7
plus such number of land owners as
may be living in tenant families.
The farm families number 4,767. 179.
of which 65.92 per cent. own their own
farms and 34.S per cent. hire, while of
the owning families 2s.22 per cent have
encumberances on their farms and II, rs
per cent. have none. In 1880, %. SO per
cent. of the farms were hired.
The results for.7 ,992, ,913 home families
are that 80 per cent. own their homes
and 63.1O per cent. hire them, while of
the owning families 27.7O per cent own
their homes subject to encumbrance and
1880 per cent. free. Among cities hav-
ing 100000 population and over, New
York has the highest percentage of home
tenacy. namely, 93.67; Boston is next
with S1.O1 per cent. The value of the
1.696,e9O farms and homes subject TO
encumbrance is S5,6s7, 29s. o69. and the
encumbrance on them is 81. 1872 ,949 1858,
or $3.50 per cent. of the value.
Only little over one quarter of those
owning farms have any encumbrances
upon them and those encountered are
mortgaged only for one-third of their
value. Sixty-six per cent of the farmers
in America own their own farms.
The encumbrances on the farms were
to the extent of "a per cent. incurred in
buying real estate and making improve
ments, while on all the real estate S3 Der
cent. of the encumbrance was for the
purpose OF purchase and Improvement.
In the cities, the ownership of homes
Is very much less, about quarter of |
the urban population owning their |
homes. while the remainder occupy |
hired houses.
This is marvellous showing and |
points to a prosperity never reached by
ny other nation.
The ownership Of a home means n
higher grade OF citizenship and saving
disposition, that speaks well for the
future of nation which is yet in its
infancy.
