York and over a74 in London is much to be regretted With the improved conditions of business and the active demand for the metal, beth here and in Europe, in cleo tricai, ship building and other work, rise in price was to be expected.
 Until quite recently the improve ment was natural and legitimate one, and the prod could derive only benefit from 1t. Now, however, the spsculators have taken hold, and the intention is said to be to force the quotations up to 20 cents, which is quite possible under pres ent conditions. The inevitable re- suit will be to cur,ail consumption and to turn manufacturers to other metals wherever they can possibly be used. Moreover, there will be a general opening up of old mines which have been abandoned as un- profitable and an exploitation of new ones, which will be sure to in crease production to point beyond the real demand. The inevitable reaction will be disastrous to specu- lation and injurious to investors in new and old mines, which cannot be worke ed at a profit under ordinary conditions. The moderate advances Justified by trade conditions would have eneHted our mines far more than any temporary advantage thsy may gain from the present wild specuIation.-M. & 4. Journal

WOMAN'S RIGHTS.

Poor old Arizona, the natural home of the bachelor, is again being flooded with woman's rights litera- ture and the legislature and other congregation of helpless people are Icing besiegrd by fema'e orators. But it was ever thus; only the truly wise can keep their troubles to themselves.
 The women who unsex themselves and tramp through the country leeturlng people how to protect the home, would be of great deal more service to humanity if they would look after their own homes and make them comfortable aId habit able. The trouble with most of these women in pants Is that home is the last place on earth that could help them Their temper and peculiar ways would break up any home aud drive the most submi>- sive of husbands into haunts of dis sipation, insane asvlums, or in o premature graves. The mothers of George Washington, Abraham Lin- coin and Ulysses Grant were never known to abandon their own homes and hearths in seach of notoriety, ciattering about woman suffrage and the preservation of the home. The best women that ever lived the women we most respect and revere-have happy families and homes of their own.

THOUGHTFUL people in Great Bri- tain are seriously questioning whe- ther, after all, the Protictive system of the United States has not some very positive advantagesovsr British Free Trade. Looking at the years record for this country they find a startling disparity in the fiscal showing. They find that for the full calendar year 1898 the United States has considerably surpassed Great Britain in the gross volume of export trade, the total for our conn try being &1, ,254,925,1 ,169, against $1,166,953,96O for Great Britain, and that instead of debt balarce of more than a billion and quater dollars this Protected nation of ours shows a favorable credit balance of S621, ,260.635. Adding the British deficit and the American surplus together, it is found that the margin between the net trade exhibits of the two countries is $1 ,857 ,327 ,660. It an enormous sum, but it is the correct measure of the difference be- tween the commercial losses of Great Britain under Free-Trade and the commercial gains of the Unittd d States under Protection for the year 1898.

FREE TRADERS will readily ac- count for the swollen volume of agricultural experts on the hypo- thesis that the world needed our food products and was compelled to buy them. But what will they say of the $398,OO0,O00 worth of manufactured articles which the world bought of us during 1882 How will they make this fact 1t their theory that Protection in creases the cost of production and hence debars our manufacturers from successful competition in the worlds market? They cannot make the fact and the theory fit; there fore, the theory is worthiess. Their better plan would be |, adopt the frank acknowledgement of the Lon don "7imes' regarding the all-con- qusring progress of American manu- featuring industry-i. e., that it is, the result of ''intelligent labor highly paid" The triumph of the Protectinn principle has never been more briefly or more truthfulIy stated than in th.se four words.

 Take walk through any of oul cemeteries and you will see that even the fool passeth away. Here is the last resting place of the man who blew in an empty gun; there the woman who lighted the fire with kerosene, grass carpeted mound covers the grave of the man who took the mule by the tail. The monument to the boy who didn't know it was loaded, is greatly over shadowed by that of the man who jumped from the train to save a ten yards walk. Side by side the aesthetic creature who kept her corsets laced to the last hole and wore low uecked dresses in winter and the intelligent idiot who rode a bicycle nine or ten miles in ten minutes; beneath the mound of yellow clay rest the colk headed chappie who sucked death from the luscious cigarette in a few sweet moments; while beneath the weeping willow, gathered in a tin pail, rests in peace the battered re. mains of the aeronaut. Here re- poses the doctor who took his own madeleine. Down in the potter field with his tees sticking out to the cold blasts of winter and the blistering rays of the summer sun, are stretched the remains Of the ed itor, while the broken bones of the man who refused to pay for his pa per are pitted in the corner of fence

would give should be ayailed of.
