The Tribune finds newspaper
directory published in New York, in
1898, which places the circulation of
that sheet much in excess of that of
The Herald. If the Tribune eircula ton
does not exceed the figures given, and
that is all it claims, its advertisers will
be very much disappointed at the
meagre showing. AS to the figures
given for The Herald. they are grossly
erroneous and inadequate and were of
course not derived from us; they may
possibly have been the estimate of our
contemporary. Next time the Tribune
should have little higher re-
gard for the proprieties of time
and space than to quote the an
cient figures of 1893, emanating from
a distant point like New York The
Herald feels that it would certainly be
out classed in circulation-swearing and
so has declined to enter this conscience
straining contest.

General Frye predicts that one
million, men will march on Washing
ton and turn Congress out if it does
not legislate as they wish, and organ
ize a provisional government This
sounds startling until it is remembered
that while General Coxey was organ
izing his Commonweal army he proph-
esied that he would take with him one
hundred thousand men to the Capital
to enforce his demands in the national
legislature, and that when the army
reached its destination it was not
strong enough numerically to prevent
the police from arresting General
CoXey for walking on the grass" So
says the Philadelphia Ledger Rep.).
FRYE and his ilk may be talking mere
buncombe. but there is limit even to
which buncombe should be allowed to
go. General Frye is very near that
limit

The Boston Post says: The New York

which Congress, under the last Repub-

stands as a monument to the wisdom
of the free ship policy. And this per-
Torrance justifies that wisdom. The
carrying trade is of more value than
the shipbuilding trade With Ameri-
cans doing the ocean carrying, Ameri-
