cause she has told everything she knows before she goes to bed.--C'incin- Commercial Tribune.
 MT Murphy says that Mayor McClel- Ian will be renOminated and reelected. Such result is not made more certain by the grossly exorbftant electric light ing contract which Mayor McClellan's administration has just made. Two years ago the Low administration re- fused to pay the price asked by the electric light monopoly and the ser vice has continued without a contract. It is estimated that the people of the
 city will be robbed of about $9,O0OO0O. and the newspapers which circulate most largely among the Tammany voters are charging the responsibility on Mayor McClellan.--Ha Times.
 The irrigation of our arid regions has commanded much attention, but the system may profitabIy be extend. ed far beyond them, though the under- standing of it's value is comparatively new to this part of the union, A few truck and other farmers in New York and neighboring states have tried it for years, and they have found that irrigation in the east is profitable. A gradually widening circle of agricultur- 1stS has been brought over to this view.
 1t is a little strange perhaps that our farmers generally did not take more rapidly to the idea, for they are only just beginning to repeat the experi- ence of farmers i'll France, Switzerland and Italy, where some of the irrigated districts have a larger annual rainfall than the Mississippi valley.-New York S71u

MONDAY, DECEMBER 5 1904.

It is mistaken love in the human family which aims only to make life easy and comfortable for children, to concentrate efforts upon providing for them rather than developing them, We talk about making our children in- dependent-meaning thereby leaving them fortune. Independence is never "a matter of dollars and cents but of character, which will enable them, to stand alone truly independent when our fostering care is withdrawn

As near as can be computed at this time the total vote in the last election was 12,821, ,Ss4; of this Roosevelt re- ceived 7,7o2, ,1so and Parker 5,119, ,7o4. It was a pretty poor showing for the democratic candidate and it tonly goes to show that the men who opposed Parker because of his unpopularity knew what they were talking about. He fell behind Roosevelt more than two millions, while Mckinley beat Bryan by only s59,984 in 1900.

PERJURY IN EVERY COURT.
Great Evil That Is Becoming Menace to Justice and Liberty in
 This Country.

An interesting contribution to the proof of the prevalence of perjury in court proceedings is furnished, says the Brooklyn Citizen, by recent story of the restitution of $55O to street railway company of this city by the priest of Polish church in Manhat- tan, acting on behalf of woman who confessed to him that she had ob- tained it as her share of a verdict in her suit for damages against the com pany by false testimony.
 According to the story, she testified falsely by the advice of her lawyer, who told her that if she presented nothing but the truth in court she could recover nothing. So she per- jured herself. Of course the priest could not be bound to reveal her identity and he did not, holding that he had done his full duty to both the woman and the company in securing the restitution of the money fraud ulently obtained.
 The story exemplifies the difficulties so often met with by the railroad com panies in answers to the frequent
 
 it goes, their complaints of the way in which many of them are worked up; a complaint that is also made by many lawyers, who say that per curious testimony is increasingly en- countered in the trial of cases, and particularly those in which the for eign element is concerned.
 This state of things is encouraged by the success which, as in the case cited, is secured by perjured testimony in the suits brought, but not by that alone. It receives it's chief encour- agement from the immunity from prosecution and punishment given to perjurers and suborners of perjury through the neglect of the authorities to follow up the evidence and the l clews that would often lead to the , conviction of the guilty. This preva- l lence of perjury is, indeed, a matter of such consequence to the commun- 1 ity-even more harmful, perhaps, than 1 murder-that it deserves the most ] vigorous and rigorous attention oi ] those who have the power to effect 8 l general reformation in it.

General business conditions continue to improve, says Banker Clews. Clearing house returns at leading cities last week showed an increase of over 50 per cent. Of course this was large ly due to speculation in New York; but Baltimore showed an increase of p per cent, Philadelphia 13 per cent. Chi eago 12 per cent Boston 30 per cent and New Orleans 26 per cent. Reports from all sections of the country show similar gains in cleargngs, which, be- yond question, tell the story of busi- ness improvement. Further proof is afforded in railroad earnings. twenty one roads reporting an increase of Ia per sent in the third week of Noyem, Der. Traffic managers tell us that their roads are again likely to be over taxed with traffic, and are urging car and locomotive works to hasten delIy, cries of newly placed orders for rolling stock. Our railroads are once more heavy buyers of iron and steel pro, ducts, and are chiefly responsible for the latest boom 1n iron and steel. Heavy advances have already taken place in prices of many products, the effect of which is to create a buyers panic and another spasmodic boom in the steel issues on the stock exchange. Nor is this all. The chief4base of pres. ent improvement is in the profitable harvest Secretary Wilson, of the de- partment of agriculture, tells Us that our cotton crop will reach a value of 600 millions, our corn crop value Of 1000 millions, our wheat and hay crops value of 1000 millions, and all our farm products combined total value of 4,9O0 millions, compared with 4,49O millions last year This is an in crease of $40, GOO, or nearly 10 pel cent, in the value of our agricultural products within one year. Surely the American farmer is more than ordinari, Fly prosperous.

The publishers of the United States believe that the donations for the pur- pose of erecting buildings to be used for library purposes. made by Andrew Carnegie, has laid the foundation for one of the most profitable trusts that has had an existence in the history of merchandising. 1t is not known just what the total of NIrl Carnegie's dona- tions is, but the people of the various towns have agreed to raise 10 per. cent per annum of each separate donation, the amount so raised to be devoted to library work. The cost of care, light, heat, incidentals and administration accounts for considerable portion of this sum, but nevertheless the market for books is better than it ever has been, Because the market is better the. publishers have concluded that they cannot afford to offer former in, ducements to the libraries. The dis counts on copyrighted books have va ried, and it may be that 30 per cent has been a fair average Now the publishers have combined and agreed that not more than 10 per cent discount is to be allowed to 3 library, and that any dealer giving more than the 10 per cent discount is to be blacklisted. The intention of the publishers is to derive few hundred additional from cities that have been given libraries by MT Carnegie each year. They will mulct all cities in proportion to their exer, tions to build Up library.
