THE Chicago Post has found a new
worry. 1t is that the Vice President is too
much of nonenity, and it thinks there
should be a Constitutional amendment to
put him in the Cabinet, and give him a
place in the Administration. The Post
should study the formation of our Coy
eminent and acquire a little knowledge
There is nothing TO prevent the President
from inviting the Vice-President to be-
come one of his Constitutional advisors
and TO a seat in the Cabinet meetings. The
President can call him in and ask his ad-
vice at any time he wishes, but so far no
President has thought of doing this He
would be out of place in the Cabinet, for
the reason that he has no official power,
and whatever he said would be purely
advisory, without his being able to put it
into effect, since he has no Department.
The members of the Cabinet can give i'm
mediate effect to any action of the Ad-
ministration through their great official
force, but the Vice-President has nobody
he can direct to do anything but one Sec
rotary and the Caterer of the Senate
restaurant. He has almost no power in
the Senate, and can not influence its de-
alterations nor course of business in the
least. These are under complete control
of the Steering Committee of the party
which chances to have a majority in that
body. When the Democrats are in power
q few Democratic Senators direct what
shall or shall not be done, and vice-versa
when. as now. the Republicans hold the
reins. All that the Vice-President has to
do Ii to look dignified and put motions.
Anything more than that the Senators will
not tolerate. John Quincy Adams used to
call the VicePresident His Superfuity,"
and he remains SO to this day.

Our trade with Mexico is increasing at
most astonishing rate. We are now fur
nishing Mexico with about 60 per cent.
of the total value of all the goods she i'm
ports and taking about so per cent of
what she exports. Our exports to Mex
leo have grown up from S2,012, 1921 in
1850 to S42,257, JOG in 1903, and in the
same time her exports to US have risen
from s5575,20O to $41,313.711. Iron, steel
and machinery form large part OF our
exports; breadstuffs, vehicles and chemi-
Gals show large increase. Copper and
vegetable fbers form a large item of our
imports from Mexico. and next comes sisal
grass, hides and skins.

SILVER seems obstinately determined to
cover her prophetic friends with confu-
sion. In spite of the spreading disuse of
it as money. it will persist in advancing in
price. The Director of the Mint receives
offers for the sale Of silver on Monday
and Tuesday of each week, and last
Thursday the lowest that was offered him
was at Co.'s, with some at G0.5S. the
highest price yet reached. 1t will take but
a rise of little more than 500 to carry
it past the coming value for the Philip
pines. when it becomes useless to coin it,
because it will be at once taken up for
bullion. The explanation is that China
has been recently buying good deal Of
silver, also France for use in IndO- China.
