A Remarkable Ruler.

The Ameer Of Afghanistan has abandoned
his proposed visit to England. having de-
cided that 1t would not be wise to absent
himself 90 long from his country. II is
likely. however. that one or two OF his sons
will go to England. before long. for pleasure
and improvement.
1t would interest every Western people IL
such a ruler as ADDUR RAHMAS Khan
could have tho leisure to visit one Of the
great Caucasian nations. and gain a more
Intimate acquaintance with their life. char
acter. and ideas. This ruler is to-day per-
haps the most interesting OF Oriental po-
tentates. because. though he rules over one
OF the most exclusive and fanatical nations
OF the East, he has shown much capacity for
assimilating Western ideas of progress and
introducing them into his own land. A few
years ago no Eastern country seemed more
hopelessly stagnant, more completely fet-
tered by conservatism and distTust OF all
the outside world. than the land OF the
Afghans. Only fourteen years ago. when
YAKUB Khan was Ameer. British embas-
sy was massacred in KRbul. Not until last
year was it thought possible To send a
commission to the capital. with an escort
less formidable in proportions than an in
vading army. Even to-day all access to the
country is denied TO private individuals. by
Russia on the north and Great Britain on
the south. because 1t is impossible to guar
antee their safety.
A remarkable change. however. is in
progress. ABDUR RAHMAS has great faith
In the mechanical inventions and appliances
OF the West. and. in spite of their natural
suspicion. has won the people OF Kabul 70
his way Of thinking. To-day there are
workshops and factories in the capital,
equipped with European machinery. and
native WOrkmsn under foreign guidance
are turning out great variety OF Western
articles used in civil and military life. The
silver and copper coins from the Amser's
mint compare favorsbly with the coinage
OF any nation. Five hundred pairs OF boots
are the daily output Of the shoe factory.

Lord Ripon and the Lobsters.

Tho Ill feeling between Newfoundland and
the mother country over the French shore
question is now revived by the demand of
the British Colonial Secretary that the
island Legislature shall promptly pass an
act for the enforcement of the award that
may bs made In the arbitration agreed upon
for that question.
Five years ago q violent dispute broke
out as to the relative rights OF French and
British subjects TO erect and maintain lob
ster-canning factories on the west coast Of
Newfoundland. commonly known as the
French shore. To avert bloodshed and tho
destruction OF property. the British and
French Governments intervened. and. In
1890. agreed upon a HlOdus ciuendi. under
which all factories started on that shore
after July ], 1889. were to be closed. ex-
cept that for each one allowed 10 the
subjects of either Government. by Joint
consent of the commanders Of the British
and French naval stations there. the sub
jects OF the other should also have
the right to establish . factory. Then a
tribunal Of arbitration was appointed to
consider and determine the treaty rights Of
the two nations upon that shore. its men,
bsTs being Prof. MARTENS. Consul RIVER,
and Judge GRAU.
But when that had been accomplished. an
obstacle occurred in the proposed settle
ment. Capt Sir BALDWIN WALKER, the
British naval commander. proceeded to ex-
eente the gsodUs riUeAdi agreement by clos
ing the recently erected British factories on
the French shore. The owner OF one of
these. Mr.. JAMES BAIRD. brought a suit for
damages. the result Of which was TO dis
close that there existed no colonial law
for carrying out the BOdUs viueRdi. while
the imperial statute for enforcing the old
treaty Of Versailles. guaranteeing protee-
tion to French fishermen. had been repeal
cd. This was an unexpected and awkward
revelation; but the imperial Government.
IN view OF its pledge OF faith TO France TO
carry out the BaOdHs ViueAdi agreement,
promptly called upon Newfoundland TO
enact the needed law. The island hesi-
tated. from her conviction that the whole
HaOdGs vtreRd9 Was an outrage. sac

The Working women's Protective Union.
In its thirtieth report just published. makes
an appeal for assistance that should be
heard even among all the cries for help now

figures Of its work done show that 1t is

and cruelty to employees that Of kindness
to oneself.
The society was formed In the autumn OF
1868. and in its thirty years OF life has
investigated s65.Ooo applications, an aver
age Of nearly forty for every working
day OF its existence: has furnished employ
ment to 53.6s2 women; and has collected
S57,612. money earned by. but withheld
from. working women. free Of ell cost to
them. Besides collecting this amount OF
money. 1t has settled 3s. 200 disputes. out OF
court. The cost OF carrying on this great
work is only about 5000 a year. to obtain
which the Union relies on voluntary aid.
Seldom is SO much good done 30 cheaply:
officers. directors. counsel. attorney. do
their work without pay; the expenditures
OF the Union are wholly for rent, legal fees.
clerical work. and incidental expenses.
The work OF the Union is not bounded by
the limits Of New York city. All working
women. except household servants, in Brook
lyn. Jersey City. and the vicinity Of New
York. may share Its benefits. To more than
these. however. the Union has opened the
doors OF the courts: for. through its infiu-
ence. law has been passed imposing triple
costs on employers proved in court to have
defrauded their women employees. and this
law covers the entire State.
The fact that protective union exists.
with the means and determination to resist
every wrong done to working women. OF it.
self prevents the commission Of many such
wrongs. 1t also aids in correcting greater
number OF such wrongs which have been
committed. and the rendering OF free justice

Al the last meeting Of the Park Board.
Mr.. THroDoRB W. MIKRs urged upon
the Commissioners the scheme Of open
ing . new driveway into the Central
Park at Fifty-ninth street and the Sew
enth avenue. At present . broad side
walk runs from the Eighth avenue TO the
Fifth. Just outside Of the Park wall; and q
narrow path runs the same distance just
within the wall. interrupted by footpaths
at sixth and Seventh avenues. but without
Interference Of driver or equestrian. At the
Seventh avenue. just inside the Park. is .
picturesque wooded knoll. around which
winds the entrance path. which soon passes
under an archway. The scene is pic
turesque and charming. the locality safe for
children on their way TO and from the play
grounds Of the Park. What does Mr.. MYERS
offer TO make up for the changes which his
plan would necessitatei Instead OF a safe
path for children and other pedestrians. he
would give TO . few persons living In the
neighborhood who own carriages q short
cat 10 the main drives OF the Park. Through
. charming and picturesque locality he
would drive . carriageway whereon fast
horses would disturb the children aud
even impenl their lives. The beauty OF

The New York Populists.

Those sanguine individuals, who advance
the specious argument that by adopting
Populist crank theories the Democracy can
attract TO its support the Populist voters
Of the country. would do well to study the
case OF New York. In this State the Popu-
listparty has been In existence under va
rious designations for twenty years. It Is
organized In all Of our sixty counties. Its
voting strength varied. in the Presidential
election Of 1881. from 2s votes in Hamilton
county to 3.s6s In New York. The Populists
OF tho State all told. including even those
who. under our benehcent electoral system
Of Official ballots. stubs. and numericals.
voted the Populist electoral ticket by mis-
take. numbered 16.429. Last year. stimu-
lated by the fine showing they had made in
1897. and also by the hardness OF the times.
always favorable to such crank organiza-
tions. the Populist leaders made spirited
effort to exceed the totals Of 1897. and sue
ceeded In securing for the head Of their
ticket 17.o50 votes. q gain OF 6s1. At the
same ratio of increase the Populists will
poll II. 100 votes in 1894. 1920 in 1895. 1900
In 1896. 40 $50 in 1897. 211Oo in 1s9s q, 800 In
1899. and q. $50 in 1900.
Tho total vote Of this State Is about 1.lo0.-
600. and OF this total the Populists consti-
tute about III per cent. These Populists.
and their political predecessors. the anti
monopolists. greenbackers. labor party. and
workingmen's party. have been voting for
minority candidates continuously since the
close Of the civil war. They have never
made any real headway. and they are max
ing none now; but undaunted by defeat,
and incapable. as would appear. OF gaining
any proselytes. they continue their agita-
tion and throw away their sufrrages on an
outside. third party ticket.

concession. short of an sbject surrender Of
policy and principle. the Democratic party
Of this State could secure 1900 or more

Woodworking machinery are the talk OF
the country. England evidently has faith
in the Ameer's good intentions, for with
out any apparent misgivlngs she has per-
mitted him TO develop aunmaklnR so far
that he is able to-day TO produce all the
improved weapons and ammunition re-
ouired for his army.
These wonders are the result Of six years
Of indefatigable work. stimulated by all the
financial aid required for the young and
novel industries; and now the mills and
workshops are to be duplicated In other
towns OF the country. with Jelalabad re-
celving the first attention.
ABDUR RAHNAN rules four million people.
Radical innovations in the ideas and habits
OF nation require years for thorough as
similation. The Ameer is introducing the
externals OF Western civilization with re-
markable celebrity. but 1t may be long be-
fore his innovations and influence deeply
impress the character OF the half-savaRe
and heterogeneous human elements with
which he has to deal. At all events he has
shown himself q very remarkable man.
In his country. the power OF the Ameer de-
pends largely upon his personal character
istics. Since the time Of DosT MoHAMMED,
Afghanistan has not had SO strong and firm
hand at the helm as she has to-day. 1t is
doubtless to. the Ameer's advantage that
England is most friendly and helpful. for
she wishes him to be the powerful head OF q
strong buffer state between the Indian and
Russian frontiers. ABDUB RAHMAy has
had to contend with disaffection and rebel
lion. but he may claim for himself the credit
OF ruling over q larger Afghsnistan than
any other Ameer since the middle Of the
last century.

| Woollens have fallen in price by reason OF
relatively increased production; lessened
cost Of raw wool: the reconversion OF worn
woollen garments and rags into fabrics;
the progressive use OF various flbres
as sdmixtures; and the greatly lessened
cost Of production by the use OF i'm
proved processes that have markedly
increased the productive power OF a
given number OF operatives. thereby lessen
ing their relative numbers and reducing the
wage cost Of a specific quantity Of goods.
Moreover. prices have been affected by the
greatly diminished purchasing power Of
the farmer, which has curtailed consump-
tion and thrown operatives out OF employ
ment; and this. In turn. has still further
lessened demand by reducing the aggre-
gate purchasing power Of 80 great body
OF people as the wage earners. 1t is obvious
that the farmer who sells his fine woods at
the current price Of ~ cents pound. can
not buy as many woollens as few years
ago when such wool sold for As cents a
pound. even IL woollen fabrics have. In the
mean time. declined 80 per cent. as against
decline OF 55 per cent. in the price for wool.
The conditions producing overwhelming
circles Of lessened purchasing power. that
now include all the population but the
small fraction who are very wealthy or
have fixed incomes. had their inception In
reductions Of prices for agricultural staples.
that have been out Of all proportion to the
savings effected in farm production. Per-
manent relief can como only from condl-
tons that will restore the lost purchasing
power Of that two-fifths OF the population
finding homes and employment upon the
land. Such restoration will be Immediately
followed by an increase OF employment and
purchasing power for the lubricants and
laborers now wholly or partially idle.
The farmer does not lack employment.
What he lacks Is fair remuneration
for the labor and capital devoted to
farm production.
Even partial restoration Of the desired
conditions can come only from the opera
tion OF such natural laws as have advanced
prices for corn and swine from an unprofit-
able to remunerative level. In such
restorative processes, time and a resulting
increase Of population are essential factors:
although a temporary settlement OF the
tariff question might increase activity
by giving manufacturers a reasonable as
surance that prices for their products
could not be Immediately disturbed by
further changes In the revenue laws; and
there ought to be months OF activity in
making good the diminished production OF
the last twelve months.
1t appears that the basic industry is etill
just as potent an economic factor as LOO
years ago when the statesman who founded
the second great Persian monarchy said
There can be no power without an
army; no army without money. and no
money without prosperous agriculture"
