the operations of the last tariff act, but to the inevitablene of Republican success in the next election and the consequent return to the protective policy, that infallible specific for Demo- cratic panics, that great replenisher of deple ted Democratic treasuries, that great energizer that puts new life into industries against which the Demo. cratic party carries on "wars to the death." Wages are just now getting back to what they were before the tariff act necessitated their reduction. The factories which are re.opening are the ones which the Democratic tariff act closed. The workingman has charged up to that act the millions of dollars of wages it made him lose and the party that passed that act is going to hear from him next fall. He isn't fooled by the impudent claim that the present tariff act is responsible for the revival of business and the raising of wages. Nobody is.

THE END of the century will probably see the last of most of the monopolies which, during the past fifty years, have been maintained in the necessaries of modern life. The sewing machine pat tents, out of which millions were made by the early manufacturers, expired long ago. The ''drop" in those ma chimes has brought them within the means of the humblest family. Tele. graphy is now so cheap for the same reason that all who run may telegraph. Railroad patents have long since ceased to be monopoly. Typewriters, bi- cycles and telephones still maintain themselves, but by the end of the century all these will probably be in limbo.

THE REAL CAUSE.

The trade reviews published are re. continuing revival of trade. The Dem ocratic organs of the Wilson German tariff law will continue to jubilate over the revival and will assign the reason for it to the operations of that benefi. cent bungle, that hodge, podge of pro- lection and free trade, that Joseph's s coat of many colors which the last con- gress buttoned around Uncle Sam to protect him from the storm that was then raging.
 The Wilson German organs will be justified in jubiliating and they will be joined by the protection organs. But in the assignment of the reason for the revival of trade, the protection organs will point out few facts that "tend to indicate" that an economic policy which increases imports and decreases ex. ports, that opens up market in this country for foreign goods and closes the foreign market for the goods of this country, can hardly be responsible for the re.opening of mills and factories which were closed so soon after the election of MT. Cleveland. Nor can this policy, embodied in the Wilson. German tariff law, be responsible fol the restoration of wages, which were reduced go ger orally so soon after the second induction of MT. Cleveland in to office. The country was prosperous when MT. Cleveland was elected waget were higher than they are now, ever after the frequent recent raises. The Mckinley law was operating as tar1f laws ought to operate. We were selling millions of dollars worth more goods abroad than we are now and we were buying millions of dollars less of goodi abroad than we are now.

A SELF APPOINTED JUDGE.

The Phenix Herazd on Tuesday night editorially declared the Second ward to be without representation in the city council, thus decisively set. ting matter concerning which there was then more or less dispute. It may be pertinently asked by what authority had :the Phoenix Herald which is a good judge of nothing else, bee n constituted judge of question purely of fact, in advance of any but hear say evidence on the subject?
 Mir. Lewis said he was a resident of the ward that he does really live and sleep in the ward is patent. Even the gentlemen interested in busting him admitted that. Whether MT. Lewis con sidered this to be legal residence, MT. Lewis best knew, and he said he in- tended it to be. The whole question af ter the fact ofIlocation was one of intent, so that it was apparently settled not withstanding the Herald's premature and adverse decision.
 The Herald's position, by the way, was strong argument in support of the correctness of MT. Lewis contrary po- sltion. Almost absolute reliance may be placed upon the incorrectness of the Herdld's position upon almost every conceivable subject.

A yearly advertisement of one column in the Chicago Tribune costs $27 ,550 for the lowest and $5O,O0O for the highest priced column. These prices will probably astonish men who pay from $l0 to $100 year for advertis- ing space and seem to think they are liberal advertisers.

these columns during the last eight years, and during that time it has been successfully subjected in moderate way to practical experiment.
 To express the idea more fully, it con- sists of the proposition that it may be practical ble by judicious selections of seeds to develope varieties of wheat, oats, barley and other grains that would thrive as well in the arid regions without irrigation as existing varieties do now in humid regions. It is the ap. plication of the theory of evolution to the reclamation of the arid lands of the far west. In other words. it is the ap- plication to agriculture in the arid re- zion of the laws governing the accli matization of plants. Except in its ap- plication to the arid region of the United States the idea is by no means new. It is based on principles which have been recognized by scientific men all over the world eyer since erbert Spencer presented the great law of evolution as principle manifested in the whole realm of nature, and Darwin and Wallace simultaneously unfolded to the world of science the theory of na- tural selection.
 Artificial selection is natural selec. tion stimulated by the act of man. It recognizes the tact that in the growth of plant and animal life there are in- dividual variations. One plant grow ing in the midst of others of the same species shows by It's greater vigor that it is better adapted than it's fellows to the conditions by which it is surround ed. This is it's variation or departure from the others. Artificial selection takes deliberate advantage of this var ation. Seed being selected from such a plant, the plants thus produced will ex- i hibit in themselves the characteristics which distinguish the parent plant from its fellows-that is to say, they will exhibit better adaptation to their environment or surroundings than most plants of that species. But it may be expected that among these new plants some will exhibit this adapta. tion in higher degree than the others. Artificial selection demands that the seed for replanting should be selected from them. Applying this now to the arid region, we claim that by iudicious selection of seeds, varieties of wheat and other grains can be developed which would be so adapted to the arid conditions that they would thrive with. out irrigation. In this lies the greatest hope for the reclamation of the arid part of the United States. Fortunately in support of this claim we may appeal to the language. which MT. Wallace himself has used. The article entitled "Acclimatization in the Encyclopedia Britannica, was written by MT. Wal lace.

THE FUTURE OF THE ARID WEST.

The June number of the Forum con- tains an article from the pen of Mir. E. V. Smalley, editor of the Northwest Maoazine, entitled the Future of the Great Arid Vest" Mr. Smalley has given special study to the arid region, says the Ienver Republican.
 In general he says that nearly all of that region must remain what it is to- day as far as agriculture is concerned. He estimates that if a furrow be run across twenty-ac field, the space oc- cupied by the furrow will bear about the same relation to the whole field that the area reclaima ble by irrigation bears to the whole of the arid region.
 To his estimate of the area reclaim able by irrigation we have no excep tion to take. Without having subjected it to a mathematical test, we may venture to admit that substantially it is correct. What we do object to is his conclusion that all that part of the arid region which cannot be irrigated must be abandoned as far as agriculture it concerned. We cannot change the arid region. The greater part of it always will remain arid, and only very smal part can be reclaimed by irrigation But it may be practicable to adapt agriculture to the arid conditions This is an idea which has been pre- sented upon a number of occasions IT

A MUCH-PUZzLED HUSBAND.
HE WILL PROBABLY NOT SEND MANY
MORE EXCUSES TO HIS WIFE.

There is one married man living
who was badly frightened the other
night. He sent a note to his wife
about 9 o'clock to say that he would
not be at home until late. The
messenger boy when he delivered the
note to the wife happened to mention
that he had gone to the wrong house,
and had been very wrathfully treated
by a man for disturbing him. The
wife read the note, which was on a
scrap Of paper. She thought minute.
Then she said to the messenger boy {:
"I'll give you a shilling if you will
take the note back to my husband
and tell him that story without saying
that you came here at all"
The boy pocketed the money and
went back to the husband with the
note.
"Well, why do you bring this back?
he asked.
Because they wouldn't take it. A
man came to the door, and told me
if 1 didn't 60 away he would break my
neck for me-
The husband did not stay out late
that evening. On the contrary, he
got home as fast as the underground
train could take him. He looked
suspiciously at his wife, and said :
81 sent note, but the boy must
have taken it to the wrong house"
81 suppose so" said the wife limo,
Gently, Il haven't got it."
The man was dying to find out if
anybody had called, but he was afraid
to ask.-PearSons Weekly.
