Prosperity Is coming as sure as fate, the
Demo pop pessimists and calamity
howleTs to the contrary notwithstanding.
Yet it cannot be expected to enfold the
whole country in day, or a month. But
the anticipatoIy effect of the Dingley bill
is being felt very perceptibly in the new
impulse of life which is going over the
land. The effect of renewal of conf
dence is, first, on the manufacturing dis
tricts where thousands of men are being
employed in anticipation of the early
enactment of the law, and where, as soon
as the law is actually passed and imports
cease, so that manufacturers can base
calculations, thousands of other hands
will at once go to work. Activity will
then gradually extend to the agricultural
sections by reason of the increased de-
mand for products, by the newly employ
ed laborers receiving their regular weekly

The assertion that the reduction in
tariff rates by the Wilson law was the
cause of the reduction in miners wages is
denied by the few remaining advocates of
low tariff who gleefully parade the fact
that there was no increase in the importa-
tions of coal under the Wilson law. They
are apparently trying to lead the public
away from the fact that it is the reduc-
zion in prices of imported articles which
causes a corresponding reduction in the
price of home produced articles. The re-
duction in the tariff on Nova Scotia coal
permitted it to come into the New Eng
land markets 3J cents a ton cheaper than
it came in under the Mckinley law, and,
as a consequence, the West Virginia coal
could no longer compete with it and was
forced to seek a market in the West,
which resulted in the precipitation of a
coal war and a reduction in the wages of
coal miners.

Mr. Neufeid Deaf to the Message That He Was
Nominated for Alderman.

One Of tho candidates for Alderman on tho
Tammany ticket is Emil Neufeld of POT Stanton
street. Mr.. Neufeld. who is n Hungarian and an
orthodox Hebrew OF the old school. had an un.
pleasant time learning of his nomination. On
the day when it was decided that he should have
the nomination two OF his friends. Morris Cukor
and Assemblyman benjamin Hoffman,. went TO
his house to tell him OF 1t. There they learned
that he was at the synagoguc OF the Hungarian
Congregation Ohab Zcdck. in Norfolk street. on.
gagged in prayer. They went to tho synagogue
and inquired for Mr.. Ncufcld.
At that particular time Ncufcld was engaged
in performing the Shemanesra, one OF the re.
ouiremcnts OF which rite is that during tho
prayer. which lasts half an hour. the worshipper
is not permitted to speak or even to lit his eyes,
lest his contemplation Of the attributes OF the
