Corn Conditions.

The weather bureaus weekly
summary of crop conditions:
Recent rains have improved late
corn in portions of Nebraska, Kan
sas, Oklahoma and Missouri, but
the early crop was practically ru-
med before the rains came. In
Iowa the crop has sustained less
injury than in the before mention
ed States, and the rainfall has been
copious and we'll distributed. In
the great corn States east of the
Mississippi river, except over nor
thern Illinois, drouth and excess
sive heat have continued with dis
astrous effects upon corn, which is
now in a critical condition. In
Michigan, and generally through
out the middle Atlantic States and
New England the corn crop is in
fine condition.

WHAT is A JUST WAGE?

Determination of wages is no doubt
difficult subject A contemporary
quite correctly says this on the sub
ject:
What is a just wage? In other
words, what is just price for labor?
Economists have been trying to an
swer it ever since the science of po-
litical economy was first formulated
They are no nearer a solution now
than they were when they began. In
Fall River, Mass, We find one capt.
talist advancing wages and declaring
that his markets warrant it, while
other manufacturers engaged ia the
same business say that their markets
do not warrant it. All admit that
wages deserve to be gagged according
to the condition of business, but no.
body is agreed as to what the real con-
ditions are.
When expert manufacturers thus
disagree as to the condition Of indus
try it is hardly to be wondered at that
some workingmen are ready to declare
tnat just wages are tne WOSt you can
force the manufacturer to pay" and
sometimes we are almost tempted to
fall back upon what is known as the
Iron law of wages" which is that the
minimum of wages is the least that
a laborer will consent to take above
what makes 1t futile to engage in pro-
ductive industry. 1t has sometimes
been alleged that this minimum is
what the employer is always. striving
to enforce.
This question of what are just
wages is difficult to solve. Every labor
reformer and every philosopher has his
own views, and all are working for a
olution.-Pennsylva Grit.

SPANS MINING INDUSTRIES.

The great magnitude of SPANS min
ing industries Is best illustrated by
the fact that the industry provides one
third Of the total exports of the coun-
try.
The gross value of minerals pro-
duced in Spain in 1899 was the largest
yet recorded, and amounted to $33,430,-
900, an excess of over $2,500,000 over
the previous year.
The mines actually being worked in
Spain cover an area of about $50, 900
acres, and the total extent of mines
included in concessions already granted
amount to nearly 100000 ceres. The
growing interest in the mining indus
try may be judged from the fact that
during the year 1899 new mines
amounting to 169,441 acres were
marked out, and at the end Of that year
1885 petitions for mining rights re-
NAMED to be examined and acted upon.
While in Madrid l was told by the
authorities that still greater activity
prevailed during the year 1900 and
that new concessions are constantly
being asked.-Mining and Metallurgy.

We hear from Washington that
American statesmen are busying them
selves with great world problems,
to the exclusion of American problems.
If this were true it would be deplor-
able, for we have plenty of home prob
lens which are vastly more important
to us than any world problems" But
1t is not true. A glance over the list
of some fifteen world problems" dis
closes the fact that most of them ars
petty and even contemplate as COM
pared with home problems which our
statesmen are trying to ignore. 1t dis
closes the fact also that the most i'm
portant Of all the so-called world prob
lens are really domestic ones in so far
as we are specially concerned in them

May Prove a boomerang.

New York Evening Post: The latest
shift of the Observation-Disclosures" fac
ton in the Republican party is to sug-
gest that all. questions of revision Of

ments, be turned over to commission,
which is to report to congress in 1902
or 1908. Even tariff commission has
its dangers for the monopolists. 1t
will have to grant hearings and to
bring out facts. The result may be
to kindle, instead of to smother, pop
ular agitation, and even to convert the
commission itself, rs the tariff COM

southern states IS the proportion OF
