Definition of Term
Prosperity.
INCOME OF LABOR is LESS
This Is Claimed by Statement Issued
From Minority Party Headquarters
Quotations From Massachusetts, Bu-
reau Of Labor Report for 1901.

Chairman Griggs. of the Democratic
Congressional committee. has. issued q
statement supporting to show that the
income of labor under present conditions
is less than in 1897, by reason of the in
creased price of commodities. He gives
a list of articles, claiming that a given
sum will purchase less OF them now than
four years ago.
"The workingmen of the country are
hearing nothing from the Republicans
now" says Mr.. Griggs, except the cry
of prosperity and the full dinner pail
This Republican cry is fallacious and
misleading, and If any man with liked
income will sit down and figure for ff-
teen minutes, he will find 1t is so.
Prosperity. eh? what's prosperity?
When times are truly prosperous prices
of everything are usually high, but
wages are correspondingly so. They
keep pace with high prices of necessa-
ries and luxuries Of life, and the high
prices are not felt by the man with a
fixed income. When a man has money
in his pocket to buy what he needs he
does not ask the price; he buys 1t. When
he has no money, low price does not
interest him. because he can't buy 1t.
Prosperity means harmony between
prices and wages. We have no such
harmony. therefore. our present pros
perity' is more apparent than real.

wages or salary, has been having his

COMMERCE WITH
THE PHILIPPINES

from China in 1899, but later the trade
seems to have been diverted 10 the Brit
ish East Indies, which furnished 63 per
cent in 1901
''fmportations of iron and steel and
their finished forms aggregated the sum
of s2,032,946 in 1901 as compared with
81 ,45l $50 in 1900 and 1892, 730 in 1879.
In 1901 the United Kingdom supplied Sc
per cent and the United States and Ger
many each q per cent 1t Is notable
that agricultural machinery and imple-
ments constituted but small part OF
these figures.
The Filipinos are naturally inclined
to music, and quite a demand has sprung
up for musical Instruments; for in
stance, in 1899 but s1.5e0 was expended
for piano fortes, in 1900 this had in
creased to sS,31e. and in 1901 to S22.OoS.
Germany furnishing about one-half.
with the hest of natural facilities
for rice culture the importations are
constantly increasing. Two crops of rice
may be raised each year. but the crude
methods employed and the lack of work
men where so much manual labor is
done. rendered the production of more
than one crop iInhpssible, and that at
pTeSeHl lOO ilSut ioi HohiS hSSSS
sites.
Nearly half million dollars worth
of vegetables were imported in 1901,
mostly from China. 1t is thought that
when the natives come into small hold
:ngs of land the raising of vegetables
for their own use and for the local mar
kets will obyiate the necessity of large
importations of such as potatoes, onions
and others. A bureau of agriculture
has been established, having under it's
supervision experimental farms and sta
tions. which will aid in this direction.
Wines. sparkling liquors, and cor
dials to the amount of nearly S350,00o
were imported in 1901. Spain furnishing
AZ per cent. France IS per cent, and the
United States S per cent. 1t is thought
that California will be able to supply
the bulk of wines used in the Archi-
pelago.

WHISKY IN TABLETS.
Bartender Says He Can Solidify Staple
and Not Spoil It.

BINGHAMToN. n. Y, Sept. THE
Compressed Spirits and Chemical Com
pany is the name of firm Incorporated
in Binghamton to put up whisky and
other spirits in small tablets. The tab
lets are the invention of H. Charles
odenbaugh. head bartender at the Ben
net, in this city. The company has been
incorporated with capital stock of
500, 900.
Odenbaugh claims for his invention
that it will be of great use in the med
icaI world. He says his tablet combines
all of the properties of pure whisky in
a solid form, and that by dissolving a
tablet in water the very best kind of
whisky is produced. The process used
in solidifying the whisky is to be pat
ented.
1t is said that the internal revenue tax
and all, State licenses will be avoided
by the use of the tablet. 1t is not a
spirit: it is stimulant and taxable
no more than is cocaine or morphine.

and furnishes the United States about
cne-half of the latter's supply.
1T seems probable that the United
States will soon secure its own hemp
from the Philippines by direct shipment,
as the change made affecting export
duty presents advantages to American
importers of which they will naturally
avail themselves. a divergence of the
bulk or OF large part of this trade to
the United lates viii doubtless have
a tendency TO increase exchanges of
other commodities.
Exports of hemp have increased
largely since ;he Spanish American war.
the quantity for 1901 being in excess of
1899 nearly so per cent. and of 1900 40
per cent, and in value nearly 100 per
cent and 90 per cent, respectively. This
y de difference in value would seem to
indicate q great depreciation in the
selling price OF hemp, but it must be
remembered that owing to the effect of
the war the price of hemp was greatly
inflated. and the demand for 1t for some
time after the war was in excess of the
supply. With the return of peace and
the increased output the price has mai
urallv again become normal
Tobacco was next in value as an eX-
port in 1901. showing healthy increase
which promises to continue. Sugar ex>
ports for 1901 show an increased valua-
tion of about $780, 600 more than the
previous year. The development and
prosperity of the sugar industry viii
depend to great extent upon the adop-
ton of modern economical methods OF
reduction. OF the s2,50O,OOo worth ex,
ported in 1901 Japan took 40 per cent.
90 pcr cent was shipped to Hongkong
and thence probably reexported, ana II
per cent went directly to the United
States. Copra is the next most impor-
tant article of export.
Plenty of Straw Goods.
among other exports of Importance
may be mentioned manufactured straw
goods, including hats. which go prin-
cipally to the United States and France;
mother of pearl. nearly all of which goes
to British East Indies. copal to the Uni
ted Kingdom and British East Indies,
and hides of cattle to British East Indies
and Hongkong.
"The exports of these commodities
have not yet reached great proportions,
but they are growing rapidly, and will
in time become quite important sources
of revenue. Coffee was formerly ex-
ported to some extent, but at present
not more than enough for home con-
sumption is produced: revival of this
industry is predicted. provided the trees
can be protected against the ravages
of an insect that caused planters to
abandon coffee raising just when it was
otherwise beginning to pay. In the flora
of the Philippines only is found the ia
nous Ylangylang tree. from whose flow
ers the delicate perfume of the same
name is extracted. This essence forms

LoNDoN's NEW THEATERs.

LONDON. Sept. 7-Sir Charles Wynd-
hams new theater will be opened at the
end of the year. 1t will be three-tier
house. without columns, and one OF the
hanGsomest in the West End. There will
be an unusually spacious royal box.
which will communicate with fine
room for the Kings use.
Another suburban theater at Ham
mersmith will be ready at the end OF
the year. 1t will be capable of accom-
modating 1900 people, and will be fitted
with sliding roof. The architect for
both the above theaters holds commits
sions for four new West End playhouses.
for which he thinks there Is plenty of
room. now that the Opera Comique. the
Olympic. and the Globe are being de-
molished, and it Is probable that the
Lyccum will meet the same fate.
This proves that the enormous in
crease in suburban theaters does not in
jure those of the West End, but, on the
contrary, benefits them in the way of

viously been nontheatergoers into a

Earnings Also Given.
This report also contains table OF
the earnings of the head of family and

expenditures of 152 heads of families.
The average weekly wage Of ia family
heads Is shown to be s13.75. In the
other thirty-eight cases, the average
weekly wage amounts to :l1.31. the total
yearly earnings of the head averaging
for the 152 families 1894. In twenty
one Instances the earnings Of the head
exceeded the amount expended. In four
instances, the accounts balance, and in
127 instances, however. about four
ffths OF the entire number. the earnings
of the head were insufficient to meet the
family expenditure.
Does this look like prosperity for
the workingmen? 1t must be remem-
bered also that these figures were COM
piled In 1901. and the report issued
early this year. The prices on all these

AMTI-INCOME TAX LEAGUE.
Revolt Against Heavy Burden in Eng

LONDON. Sept. THE revolt against
the income tax is at last beginning to
take practical shape. An anti-income
tax league is being organized under in
fluential auspices.
Inasmuch as the onnosition to the in
come tax is strongest among the union
lists. it is probable the government will
soon realize, without the lesson Of more
bye elections. that the only hope OF re-
tanning the unionists' support will be to
grant substantial reduction Of the
present crushing burdens in the next
budget.

NEW INSANITY CURE.
Wards Island On. W Physicians Are
Trying the Effects of Various
CoIors on Their Patients.

A new cure for insanity is being
tested by Drs. Bond and Monette on
Wards island. The color cure is a
treatment new to alienists, but one
that promises to become very SUCCESS
full, for, so far, great many of the
patients taken to the color ward have
been cured. DR.. Dent, superintendent
of the woman's hospital on the island.
directed that a ward be set aside for
the color treatment, and be fitted with
all that the experiment required.
In this new treatment only the pri-
mary colors are employed, but so COM
pletely is a patient surrounded by an
atmosphere of a particular color,
deemed best by the physicians for his
particular mania, that the vibrations
must act upon him. The rooms of this
ward are small, and the furniture con-
sists of an iron bed and a chair The
walls are painted = vivid color. the
bed and chair colored to correspond
with the walls, and the L. hit sits into
the room through shade of the same
color is created.
When one of the patients suffers from
acute mania the room that is painted
black. very dungeon of room, falls
to her lot. This complete darkness and
the silence of the place seldom fail to
have some effect On the patient. As
matter of fact. it tends to soothe

Griswo1d promptly doubled the
blacks reward. and went his way to
begin a series of metamorphoses.
The series began in a pawnshop next
door to the saloon which had sedueed
the detective. Here he made a
change of clothing from top to toe,
bought a handbag much too large to
be filed with the cast-off garments
of the deck hand. and sailed forth
to seek a BARRIERS shop of Clearly
promise.
The shop and its bathroom made
the next step in the series; and from
thence Griswold went uptown to an
Quitting establishment of the bet
ter sort. and made another complete
change; made it with such ample
provision for the future that he was
obliged to purchase two travelling
cases to hold the overflow. Here he
explained that he was just up from
a fever district, and begged the OPP
portunity TO burn all the cast-off
clothing in the furnace of the steam
heating plant. 1t was given him, and
when a cab was called to take him to
the hotel, no one who had known
him in New Orleans, or on the main
deck of the Belle Julie,' would have
recognized the clean-shaven, WELL
dressed young man who had tossed
his travelling up to the driver
and gave the terse order: sTo the
Marlborough"
No one, 1 say; and yet it must have
been the very irony of fate which
sent to him the very cabman who
had so lately assisted him in the
hazardous escape on the levee. For,
among all those who were most near
~ concerned, surely none but the
sharp-eyed little. Irishman would
have penetrated his disguise-as he
did.
's'Tis the divil's own self he is"
muttered the sharp-eyed one on the
short drive to the hotel. There's
nothing left av him but thin eyes,
and that cut on his forrud, and his
manner of sp'akin'. But thin I'd
swear to if I'd live to be as old as
Father Administered his sowl."
