TARIFF A FACTOR OF cURRENc Y

To the Scranton (Pa.) Times belongs the
credit of instituting a comparison of the i'm
ports and exports OF gold during Democratic
and Republican administrations.
During the fifteen years between and in
elusive OF 1878 and 1892, all but four of which
were years of Republican admins tration-and
during the four years of Cleveland's first Pres
idency Congress was Republican, so that Re-
publican policy prevailed--the imports of gold
were greater than the exports by S1O1 ,56S,-

this vast sum Of gold from foreign Countries

\SwITZERLAND-H. W.. City. The language
spoken in Switzerland is German, French,
Italian and Romansch. On the 1st of August,
1891, the men of Uri. Schwyz and Lower Un-
terwalten entered into defensive league. In
1853 the league included eight eantons, and
in 1913 thirteen. Various associated and
protected territories were acquired, but no sd-
ditions were made to the number OF cantons
forming the league until 179S In that year,
under the influence OF France, the Helvetic
Republic was formed, with regular constitu-
tion. This failed to satisfy the cantons and in
1903 Napoleon, in the act of mediation, gave
new constitution and increased the numb Der of
cantons to nineteen. In 1916 perpetual neu-
trality of Switzerland and the inviolability of
her territory were guaranteed by Austria,
Great Britain, Portugal, Prussia and Russia,
and the Federal Pact, which had been drawn
up at Zurich, ana which included three new
cantons, was accepted by the Congress of
Vienna. The Pact remained in force till
1S4S, when new constitution, prepsr ed with
out foreign interference, was accepted by gem
eral consent. This, in turn, was on May %,
1874, superseded by the constitution which is
now in force.
