REFORM MAAING PROGRESS.

The refoRm movement in Russia is
making steady progress and what has
already been accomplished through per-
sistent popular agitation would have
been thought utterly impossible a year
ago. 1t has taken a great deal of pres
sure on the part of the advocates of a
change in governmental policies to in
duce the czar to free himself from the
domination of the reactionaries and
listen to the appeals of his people, but
he has made the departure and 1t can
very safely be predicted that the new
order of things which he has sanctioned
will stand permanently for it will make
for domestic peace, which is the present
most urgent requirement of the empire.
With peace at home assured the gov
ernment will be relieved of the neces-
sity of keeping its home garrisons filed
with troops and can reinforce it's armies
in Manchuria If determined to carry on
the war to the bitter end.
Having a short time ago granted re-
ligious freedom, the czar has now re-
moved the political restrictions in
Poland and the Baltic provinces, some,
thing that the people of those parts of
Russia have been long asking for. The
importance Of this concession is very
great and will have q quieting effect
upon large element of the population
which has been sorely oppressed and
which recently has shown a vigorous
manifestation of it's resentment These
steps in the modification of autocratiC
rule and the removal of bureaucratic
despotism will have the commentator
of the civilized world and will assure
to the government a larger measure OF
popular loyalty and devotion, while pro
noting the nations industrial develop
ment and general welfare.

HARDsHIPs OF PROSPERITY.
PessImistic Observation on Condi-
lions Generally Cheering.


Philadelphia Ledger
Prosperity is not universally pervasive;
1t is an indication of the general tone Of
the economic body: II means In a general
way, health, though some of the members
are stagnant. Capital has courage and
confidence to undertake enterprises which
are begun only in fair weather: the investor
has faith. and will let the capitalist have
the money FOR his enterprises on easy
terms; more men are employed, and the
merchant sells more goods to the workers;
the manufacturers make more goods and
call for more raw materials the producers,
when the demand is brisk, suddenly find
themselves in a position to sell at higher
price; when the higher prices are charged
the group in the community which is de-
scribed by the word labor" is confronting
a rising instead of a falling wage.
1t thus happens that, as a rule, what we
call prosperity is generally accompanied by
a time of high prices for commodities,
though II is not at all certain that high
prices themselves make prosperity If
labor can get an increase of wages large
! enough to overcome the higher prices of
the necessaries of life, it may be said to
enjoy that much prosperlty'in addition to
the largely increased chance of steady en-
class Of the community prosperity has a
hollow sound and may actually mean in
creased hardship. The laborers may in
certain trades, by means OF unions, force
up their wages artifically and maintain
them for a long time but that vast army of
persons who may be fairly well described
as salary workers, as distinguished from
wage-earners, have no such recourse
The economic term, 'immobility," applies
to them and to their condition. 1t Is a
well-known law in the economic world that
the increase in wages lags a long way
after increase of prospertay. In the case
| of the salaried employees country may
pass through several eras-from prosperity
to stagnation and to prosperity again-and
| the salaries of clerks, schoolteachers, pro-
| fessors in colleges and the like usually
remain at or near the same level To this
| great army must be added the persons OF
| small fixed income derived from invest
| ments in mortgages, bonds annuities and
| other funds. These people are at a great
| disadvantage, because, with the develop
| ment OF the country and the increase of
stored capital, their incomes actually tend
| to shrink because of the falling rate OF
interest.
What is to be done about It? Nobody
| knows. The labor unions-the organized
| workers-seem to be able to enforce their
demands for a share of prosperity when II
comes, but the salaried people and others
in that class dread real prosperity-the in
crease of the price of living-as much as
the capitalist breads the hard times When
the economic universe is to be adjusted
according to the sublimated equities which
the Jealous reformers of all sorts promise
to usher in, the persons with the fixed in
| comes ought to demand a hearing.

IGNoRING rRE PAc1FIo COAST.

complaint comes from the Pacific
coast that that section is being ignored
by the isthmian commission in the mat
ter of obtaining supplies for the canal.
The San francisco Chronicle says that
there is not only constant fight with
other departments of the government
to get opportunity for Pacific coast bid
ders to compete, but there has been
trouble with the commission itself. This
is said to have come about since the
commission was reorganized. That pa
per very quietly says that as the peo-
pie of the coast are taxed equally with
those of other sections for the building
of the canal they are entitled to an
even chance with other parts of the
country to make some money by fur
nishing any commodities which they
can supply as cheaply as anybody and
it suggests that there is a deliberate
intention to favor the east at the ex-
pense of the coast.
While this seems improbable it is
manifestly the plain duty of the rep
resentatives of the coast in congress
to see that that section has fair and
even chance In the competition for fur
nishing canal supplies. In this matter
there should be no favoritism shown to
any part of the country. The manu-
facturers Of every section should be
given an opportunity to submit bids on
what the commission will have to buy.
Any partiality or discrimination will
inevitably cause complaint and dissat.
isfactlon, the effect of which must be
more or less embarrassing to the work
of the commission. The construction
of the Panama canal is great national
work toward which aIf the people con.
tribute and therefore all sections should
have an even chance of sharing in the
money to be expended by the govern
ment in the enterprise. If the manu-
facturers of the Pacific coast can fur
nish equally as good and as cheap sup
plies as those of the east they should
be given the opportunity to do so. II
It be a fact that that section is being
ignored by the commission we think
it can be confidently assumed that sucf
course will not be approved by either
President Roosevelt or Secretary Taft.
