A PROTECTION FACT.

In his annual report to the
State Department Consul Barker,
at Birmingham, England, draws
attention to the fact that Ameri-
can competition with British trade
in the British colonies is growing
more and more formidable. In
such lines of manufacture as brass
goods, lamps, clocks and watches,
glass and glassware, lead and its
manufactures, steel rails, iron and
steel plates and sheets, wire,
printing presses, tyPewriters,
nickel, tin and zinc, the colonial
markets were until recently al
most entirely monopolized by
British manufacturers. At pres
ent every one of the articles
named, and, in addition, cotton
goods, leather and leather goods,
boots, shoes and furniture, all find
their way from the United States
to the outlying portions of the
United Kingdom in quantities so
large and steadily increasing that
the British manufacturers are
wondering if they are to be
wholly shut out by Yankee enter
prise.
All this involves a vast amount
of sorrow and trouble to the
theorists who have so long main
tanned that successful competition
in the worlds markets was only
possible under conditions of alb
Solute Free Trade. At this rate
dozen years of uninterrupted
Protection in the United States
will upset pretty much all of the
old standards and consign to the
waste basket a large bundle of
doctrines that have outlined their

Twenty-Five cents per bushel
was the price predicted for wheat
by the Popocrats last year in case
of the election of Mr.. Mckinley,
but with Bryan elected it was to
bring one dollar per bushel. And
under Bryan every dollar was
to be worth two dollars, so that
wheat was to bring S. bushel.
Of course, Mckinley having been
elected, wheat should now be IS
cents bushel, but owing to the
foreign scarcity" it is ST., so
that if Bryan should have been
elected it would be worth, at the
same ratio of increase, just four
times So per bushel, or SIS per
bushel. 1t is too bad the farmers
didn't know about this before
they voted for Mckinley.

nav oEoeRAPHIoAL NAMES

The United States Board on
Geographic Names, which meets
at stated intervals, has just rem
dcred decisions determining the
spelling of 14o geographic names.
These include number in Alaska
significant at this time in view of
the Klondike excitement. Many
variations of nomenclature for the
same place are encountered, and
the boards action settles the uni
form usage. Following is sum
mary of action taken relating to
places conspicuously mentioned in
the gold stories: AS to Klondike,
the decision is to spell it as here
given, and not Clondyke, Klon-
dyke, Chandike or Deer, Rein
deer, Trondike nor Thronduck.
One of the lakes of the upper
Yukon was named Lebarge by
the Western Telegraph Expedi-
ton in 1868 after Mike Lebarge,
a member of the exploring party,
who is now living somewhere
near Ottowa, Canada. Late pub
LEGATIONS have fallen into The error
of spelling this Labarge, but the
board adheles 10 the original
form, Leba:ge. There is Leb-
arge river in Alaska. When
Schwatka decended the Yui:on
in 1883 he named one of the
lakes on its headwaters Linde-
man after DIR. Moritz Lindeman,
now vice-president Of the Bre-
men Geological Society. This
sometimes appears enormously as
Lindemann and LinGerman. The
board adopts Lindeman. One
of the principal tributaries of
the upper Yukon is the Lewes
river, named by Mr.. Robert
Campbell, of the Hudson Bay
Company about 1913. This is
often miscalled Lewis.

The first political campaign of
the Greater New York is fully
described in the American Month
ly Review of Reviews of Novem-
Der. The story is worth reading.
No such contest as this has ever
been known before in municipal
politics, The issues involved are
tremendous, and the personnel of
the leaders has unique interest.
The editorial comment in the
Reviews progress of the World"
illumines the whole situation, and
the subject is further enlivened
by a selection of the most striking
cartoons from the daily press.

Henry George the great single
tax exponent and candidate for
mayor of New York City died
on Oct. 20, of apoplcxy, just
three days before the election
was held. Just what the result
of the election would have been
had he lived is matter of con-
lecture. Henry George Jr. was
placed upon the ticket in his
fathers place and polled very
creditable vote, though few
had confidence in his ability to
carry the city.

Great Britain's refusal to open
the minis of India to silver in ad-
vance of any international agree
ment does not signify, as many
assume, that she has no interest
in the expansion of silver as a
money metal. On the contrary,
it is understood that she will
promptly send delegates to attend
an international conference look
ing TO this end.

PROSPERITY IN KANSAS.

The surplus is swelling so
rapidly in the Kansas banks that
the keeping of the money in
safety has become a serious
question. Bank Commissioner
Bridenthal estimates that the state
and private banks have from so
to rs per cent in cash on hand
though the laws requires the
banks to keep but 20 per cent in
cash. Such condition is through
no intention or wish of the bank
ers. The money is piling up
faster than legitimate uses can be
found for it. Enough of the sur
plus viii be used to wipe out the
SIS, 900, 900 of the farm mort
cages remaining in Kansas.
Anew years ago the farmers
of Kansas owed $3.50, 900, 900.
Another instance of better con-
ditions is found in the fact that
Kansas bankers and home loan
companies are now engaged in
hunting up the Kansas man with
an eastern loan. If he is not in a
position to pay they are offering
to take up the mortgage, make a
new one at a lower rate of inter
est with the privilege of partial
payments at any time. In this
way the surplus home capital in
the banks is taking the place of
the eastern money, and the farm
er who cannot pay off entirely is
getting a lower rate of interest.
In using home capital the interest
viii remain at home and thus in
crease the material wealth of the
state.
The condition prevailing in
Kansas is the condition now to be
found in all the agricultural states
in the Union. This is the condi-
ton that confronts MIR. Bryan in
his heroic fight to save Nebraska
for the free silver element; this is
the condition against which the
wall of calamity falls to the
ground. The cry of hard times

The several pieces We're warmly APP

the warm evening.
The people made promenade CON
cert of it, and the sidewalks We're
crowded.
The date of next weeks concert has

THE GUIDE SITUATION.
Mr.. Carleton Refers 10 Some Statements Made
Regarding the Commission.

4 Journal representative saw Com
missioner Carleton of the fish and
game commission, at his office in the
Vickery block, Friday, relative to some
trouble between the guides and the
commission. Mr. Carleton was reluc-
tant to talk though unqualified in his
denial of the particular statements al
luded to. Among other things he said:
THE proof is tible-that
no language was used on the kineo trip
whereby the inference could be drawn
even that the guides were ''poachers'
or liars" or that 30 dead animals were
found the work of guides ANY cor
respondent knows or ought to know
that no certificate has been Withheld on
used by any guide to the commission
ers. None has been used to our knowl-
edge and if it had it would not in the
least influence our action"
Mr.. George A. Smith and Mr. Black
hawk Palmer have both been granted
certificates.
Eight hundred guides have regis
tered and there are not IS ''kickers"
among them.
This Kineo writer, to which refer
once has been made seems to take
special pains to try and dlscredit the
commission His reasons are well
known and well understood and we do
not care 70 trouble to notice them"

SHOE FACTORY SURE.
Committee Report on Assets
of Boyd 4 Carey Co.
Both Parties Have Accepted and Or
ganization Will Soon Follow.
Hon. P. 0. vickery Has Raised Three. Fourth,
Of the Amount Necessary.

The fact that there has been no news
OF late in regard to the Augusta shoe
factory has not signiiied that there
has been any lack of interest taken in
been giving the several necessary de-
tails in the matter their closest at
teintion-and with results that are
gratifying enough.
President Hichborn of the Augusta
Board of Trade, who has given his best
energies to the work, reported, Fri
day, that the shoe factory, so long
talked of, so long by some thought inn
possible, is no longer matter of
doubt, but an absolute, positive real
ity. The committee, consisting Of
Messrs. Randall. kinsman and HIGH
born, having in charge the eXamina
ton, verification, and valuation of the
assets of the company to be contrib
pleted its work. made it's report and,
Friday, the report was accepted by
both parties in interest.
The first of the week the company
will be organized. The directors Will
lat once proceed to purchase a lot, have
plans made. and erect the factory.
1t is quite likely that, for what is
thought to be good reasons, none Of
the lots talked of will be selected 1t
will, however, it is stated on the best
Of authority, be a location which will
offer good facilities and in every way
be desirable for the purposes of the
business. This will be decided within
the next few days.
Reports of the failure to raise the
required amount of capital here are as
absurd as they are untrue. in the
short time which Mr.. Vickery gave II
the matter, before he went away, he
secured pledges for nearly three
fourths of the necessary amount, as
was reported at the time. More than
tnat, he pledged hllnSelt TO take the
entire balance of the stock. if the cit
liens would not take it, rather than
the project should fail. We should
rather think that settled the question.
The time taken in the matter ha-,
shown that everything was being care
fully done.
The progress has been followed
closely by the Journal, and many re-
ports circulated about the factory on
investigation have been found to be
untrue.
one cant expect to see the building
completed next week But. remember,
it viii be started, right away. BE on
the lookout to get a job on it, or in it,
or because of it, and let us hope it will
make us all the more prosperous and
happy ard be a precursor of better
days.
