The year 81 is going to close in a blaze
Of glory. Never before in the social his
tory of the State has there been such
succession of brilliant entertainments,
coupled with the promises of many more
elaborate functions to come.
During the past week luncheons, teas,
dinners and receptions have succeeded
one another with such bewildering
rapidity that the buds have found it not
an easy task TO attend all the functions
planned in their honor, and the wisest

adopts gold standard now, all such
evils will not be repeated. Another
advantage is that of enabling the
the country to extend her machinery
of circulation. AS Japan progresses,
it becomes necessary for her to be N
constant touch with various foreign
markl IS but at present she is isolated
from foreign countries in respect of
circulation. Such Inconvenience will
he obviated by gold standard, which
will render the circulation between
foreign and native markets smooth and
give many other financial advantages"
From speech Of Count Matsukata,
Japanese Premier, to the Japanese

A Curious Labor ID Spute.

A cable dispatch from London to
the New York Sun says that the man
ufacturers of SaXOny have reached the
conclusion that reasonable high wages
are to them benefit rather than an
injury. The Manufacturers associa-
ion is devising means to compel a
minority of manufacture rs who employ
men below the scale fixed by the =
soc alton TO adopt the association rates.
A movement of this nature is in the in
tere st of manufacturers quite as much
as OF labor. The create productive
power of labor resulting from the
larger use of machinery has carried
the producers ahead of the consumers
on the present standard of cOnsump
ton. 1t is only by increasing the pur-
chasing ability of the labOrer that
purchasers can be found for the larger
product. 1t is true, however, that the
increase in wages must be general.
One manufacturer cannot pay much
higher wages than his competitor
without exposing himself to bankrupt
cy. The market price is determined
by the cheapest producer. But if
manufacturers would come together
and agree upon scale of wages that
would enable employees to become more
liberal purchasers of their own pro-
ducts the congested market would be
relieved.
The condition brought on by the
substitution of ma" hfnery for human
labor becomes factor for good when
it places the employe in a position to
supply himself aud his family with
more of the comforts OF life than he
conld command under the old system
of labor. An international convention
of manufacturers would open the way
to the success of the national mon
etary conference. The rise in prices
that would result from rise in wages
would create a demand for more mon
ey. If there should be no change in
the amount OF commodities produced
there would be au increase in their ag-
gregate value. A world scale for
wages would place compe ition on some
other basis than that of the lowest pos
sible rate of wages. Manufacturers
paying substantially the same rates OF
WAGES would compete against others in
making the best use of the labor en-
ployed. Under the present system,
when the manufacturers of one coun-
try find themselves beaten by the man
ufacturers of another country they try
to even up by reducing wages.

IRRIGATION IN TENAS.
Proposed Constitutional Amendment
Looking to Redeeming Arid Lands.

The people of the semi arid region
OF. Texas, which embraces a large area
OF the state, are greatly interested in
the proposed amendment to the state
constitution which Is to be submitted
to the vote Of the citizens on Tuesday.
August >. The proposed amendment
meets with general favor in
west and sou' Invest Texas among the
agriculturists and business men, but
in the eastern part of the 5 ate, where
rains are always abundant, there is OPP
position to it. The populistic ssnti-
ment is against the amendment. as it is
claimed that it's adoption will foster
irrigation corporations, to the detri-
ment of the humb taxpayer
and the people of the forks of the

The amendment provides that it
shall be lawful for the land owners of

lien on the irrigdble lands. The cost
Of construction is to be construed to
include all appurtenant expenses, in
cluding the acquisition of RIPARIAN
rights, and bonds may be issued To pay
therefor, running forty years or less,
at a rate of interest not to exceed
per cent per annum, and to be sold at
not less than par. To liquidate these
a tax may be levied in proportion to
the acreage of all irrigab Die lands: that
Is to say, lands susceptible OF lrrlga-
ton from and by the system OF lrrlga-
zion wOrkS proposed. In addition TO
this, there hall be annually levied and
co lecteO d sufficient tax from the
lands actually receiving the water to
cover the cost of maintaining the works

to be approx ed by the attorney gener-
al and the amendment may be put in
to immediate effect until otherwise pro-
vided for by law by board, consisting
of the governor, commissioner OF the
general land office and the attorney
general of the state.
the amendment affects considerably
more than one half of the area of the
state, and its adoption would mean the
reclalming of great tracts of land, ma
turally rich as TO soil, but now entirely
valueless except for grazing purposes.
Many of the 1--we stock men oppose the
adoption of the amendment, as they
have always opposed the encroachment
of the imam with the hoe' on their do
main. The adoption of this amend
ment would cause untold development
of the semi-arid portion OF Texas.
Other western states have protited
enormously by special irrigation laws.
1t is claimed that the special irrigation
law in Nebraska has caused an in
crease in the land values of the irriga-
ton districts of the state to the
amount of nearly $50, 900 in less
than three years. The adoption of the
proposed amendment would in few
" ars add largely to the general re
venues and wealth Of Texas, and also
be tie means Of Increasing the value
OF the public lanes belonging to the
schools, universities and asylums.
