carried on, Oh within the boundaries OF
the State, or within the boundaries of
the municipality" The workings of the
law are very unsatisfactory. The New
York Evening Post says that the effects
of it are to increase the cost of all pubic
works using stone from 20 to 100 per
cent. The cost of repavine Avenue A
in New York city, it was discovered by
the city authorities, would be increased
$500. 600 because of the requirement, and
the work has been postponed in cohse-
quence. The rapid transit commission
ers say if the law is not repealed 1t Will
be necessary for them to use brick IN
stead of stone in constructing the pro-
posed underground road. For some KINDS
of stone cutting there are no taclllaes
in the city, aud especial works would
have to be established. But the leglsla-
ture, with all these facts in view, does
not take kindly to a repeal OF the law
which Just now has the support or a
powerful labor element.

The silver question, which is cutting
such a figure in the financial debates in
Congress. has bearing very important
and direct upon every man in the land.
If we should come onto thu basis of an
inferior currency, the prices of commodl-
ties would undoubtedly rise. This would
be accompanied by some rise in wages;
but it seems to be well esta 5llshed
fact that the rise in wages does not keep
pace with the rise N commodities. A
committee of the United States Senate
has reported that while the inferior cur
rency caused rise Of 1l6 per cent In
prices from 1860 to 1865, wages rose dur
ing that time only 49 per cent. There
has been no time for over thirty years
when a dollar would buy SO much of the
uecessaries or comforts of life as now.

Portland's gain has been steady and
substantial, Notwithstanding the fact
that her territorial limits are very mar
low and that large proportion of tine
Increase which her business supports
goes annually to the building up OF
Deering and South Portland. Left to
themselves those two places would make
little if any gain in population or valua-
ton.
Portland cannot be much larger so TAI
as population is concerned, while she
retains her present narrow limits. But
this condition should not furnish an ex-
cuse for detractors anywhere-least OF
all near home.

Quite serious contest is being made
in the New Hampshire legislature in
favor of allicense law But the weight
of sentiment among the legislators seems
to be in favor of the continuation of the
prohi bitory law. Governor Busiel, in
his inaugural, said: "The prohibition of
the sale of intoxicating liquors, after
many years of trial, has become the set
tied policy of the State. The-existing
law and the means provided for it's en-
forcement have stood the test of time
and experience, and are receiving each
year irmer public support" 1t must
be that the law is better enforced in the
smaller towns than in the cities like
Portsmouth. where are the great brew
cries of the Frank Jones company, and
a practically unrestrained retail traffic.
