Prosperity for All.

The editorial writer of the Gratiot
Journal in last issue said that "the
prosperity of the country had not
reached the middle and lower classes
of society,"" and then proceeded to get
off canned article on trusts. The
Journal writer knows, If he has given
the matter any attention, that even
Ithaca factories are running on fuller
time than they were during the last
administration. There isn't farmer
in the vicinity of Ithaca that isn't
getting more for his cattle, sheep and
other stock. There isn't working
man in the country that can't get
work If he wants it, and at good wages.
The iron mines, the iron mills are hus-
Ting their hardest, something they
weren't doing in 1896. Think Of 1t!
Big factories refusing orders because
they are already filled up for three
years to come, with their mills run
ming on double time, and then have
some one here yell out that the mid
die and lower classes are not feeling
the better times.-St. Louis (Mich)
Republican-Leader.

the years from 1893 to 1896, overpro-
duction would be a reality. But indus
trial activity, with the increased work
and wages which it means for every
body, brings also increased consump-
tion on the part OF everybody. AS we
produce more and have, thefore, more
of the wherewithal to buy, the more
numerous are our wants and the great
er our demands for the products OF
other workers.
The economic system is a system OF
interdependence. The market for the
increased product in any one industry
is at hand in the increased demands of
the workers in every other industry.
Furthermore, If, instead of having
more Of the luxuries OF life, we pre-
fer to lay up money, there are the
worlds markets to take the surplus
products which we don't want for our
selves. Our increased and increasing
foreign trade shows that we are taking
advantage of them.
In any case, so long as human nature
Is what it is; so long as the more we
can have the more we want, there will
be no overproduction. In free-trade
days we have more than once suffered
from underconsumption, but we have
never yet had case OF overproduction,
and we are not likely to have such n
case.

A Destructive Remedy.

Since the election of Mckinley pro-
duction has Increased at such rate
that the per capita consumption in
1899 will probably be more than double
that of the disastrous years under
Cleveland. We can only maintain this
rate of consumption by keeping our
mills employed, and that can only be
done by preventing the encroachments
of foreigners, who are constantly try
ing to break into and break down our
market If we dispense with protec-
ton we simply invite Germany and
other countries where capital has been
effectively organized to drive our in
dustries to the wall. No sane people
will take such a risk. If the trusts
become oppressive the American peo-
pie will take them in hand and regu-
late them, but they will not commit
the blunder of destroying the manu-
featuring industries of the country in
senseless effort to avert an evil which
may be remedied by resort to sensi-
BILE methods.-San Francisco Chroni-

Prosperity and Education.

From all over the country there are
reports that the enrollments at public
and private schools, from the primary
grades to the universities. are larger
this year than ever before. Some in
crease might have been expected as a
result of the steady growth of popula-
ton, but the marked gain noted this
season is much more largely due to the
general prosperity of the country. Thus
the good times that have resulted from
wise national policies, from large crops
and from good markets not only bring
employment to all who seek 1t, not only
afford good investments for all who
have money to invest, not only increase
the earning power of both labor and
capital and contribute to the comforts
and necessities of daily life, but they
open the way for more liberal educa-
ton. Children who had been forced to
earn something for the family are re-
leased from their employment and sent
to school. Young men and young
women who have had but limited op-
portunities for higher education now
find themselves able to attend the col
leges and universities. The benefits of
prosperity are incalculable, but among
them one of the greatest is along edu-
cational lines.-Kansas City Journal.

Arc There Any SO blind?

Ten thousand dollars paid to work
ing men and women by four Xenia fac
tories last Saturday. THE butcher,
the baker and the candlestick maker;
the dry goods dealer and the grocer;
the clothier, the shoe dealer and the
printer; and every line of trade, and
the landlord, each got part of this
money. Within a few hours it had
passed from hand to hand and had
bought the necessaries of life to make
home comforta and happy. This is
what internal industries do for ma
ton. This is what the Republican
party has long and bravely fought for
protection to American industries. Is
there a man or woman in our COM
munity so blind as to not see that
these should be fostered?-Xenia (O)

DISADVANTAGE OF PoLlrENEss
On Hamburg Street Cars It Il Uu&iss TO
Surrender . Seat to O Lady. 4


Surrender . Seat to q Lady. 4
An American who has just returned1
from a summer trip to Europe says he
found 1t more difficult to be polite In
the city Of Hamburg than In any other
place in Europe. There the most chiv-
alrous man has to think twice before
giving up his seat in car to a lady
as he may be turned off the car for his
politeness. 1t seems that the Ham
burg trolley will seat, according to
size, twenty to twenty-eight persons,
ten to fourteen on each side. In addi-
ton, four persons are allowed on the
front and five persons on the back
platform. When the car is full the
conductor hangs out a sign .Besetzt"
which means occupied" and it is alb
solutely forbidden to take ON another
passenger until someone gets off the
car. Sometimes, while the conductor
is in front collecting fares lady will
step on the car, which is already ''occu-
pied" As there is no conductor on
hand to prevent her, the lady steps in
side, and the gentleman who may offer
her seat comes out and takes his
stand on the platform. When the con-
ductor, after going his rounds, returns
to his post, he promptly requests the
gentleman to step Off the car, as he
has forfeited his seat and the car is
fully occupied Should he refuse to
leave the car he is put off. The polidl
men on the streets are instructed TO
watch the cars sharply, ana II they
find n car carrying even one more pas
senger than is the proper complement,
the conductor is fined II cents, which
is paid to charity fund of the street
railway company.

Kipling's story, "Ths Man Who

parallel in central Africa, where
romance as weird and bloody as any

officers, dreaming of great empires

mutiny and murdered their command

dered by the native soldiery on whom
they counted for the arms that could
win their kingdoms. To make tttins

Howline Not Popular.

Mr.. Bryan is against trusts, but he

throttle them were he elected presi-
dent. And it may be necessary for him
to outline a policy before the people

Truth AS to Trusts.

Mr.. Oxnard's statement that trusts
are the result of competition which has
taken business beyond paying point
is certainly the truth as applied to
most cases. Combinations are the law
of present day tendencies, and it is
only natural that when competition so
reduced profits that there was nothing
left for the producer, combination
should step in to prevent such
slaughter. This does not justify such
combinations, but merely explains
them. 1t also indicates the foolish
ness of connecting these results with
the tariff. The greater trusts now in
the United States were formed under
the German Wilson tariff system. The
greatest trusts in all history have been
formed IN other countries at other
times and under nothing in the shape
of a protective tariff system.-Peoria

Underconsumption Caused Our Troubles
In Free Trade Times.

In Free Trade Times.
Some of the free traders, like Mr..
Bryan and Mr.. Belmont, are still talk
ing about the burdens" OF the people.
Other free traders, who have sense
enough to know that the people can't
be fooled with any claptrap about bur
dens" when they are in the widst of
such prosperity as exists today, when
work is seeking the worker and when
the Saturday night wage is larger than
it has ever been before, are looking
about for some more available weapon
to use against the protective tariff. The
bugaboo they present is overproduction.
This is a more subtle argument than
that of the burden criers, but not
more sound. Facts are quite as strong
against it. Farmers, manufacturers
and merchants all find a strong and
steady demand for all their wares, and
the prices are good. The demand 70,
labor is unusually good, and is on the
Increase. These are not the signs of
overproduction. People don't go on
buying after they have had enough,
and employers don't continue to hire
more laborers when they have products
enough on hand to satisfy existing de-
mands.
The chances are that the free traders
are not at all sincere in their cry
against overproduction; but, If they
are, it is only further evidence of their
inter inability to understand economic
principles. If the American people con-
sumed no more in times of industrial
activity, such as the present, than in
times of industrial depression, such as
