from two to three feet wire. the sos was
sent out ahead. A number, thinking to
save time. took advantage of this. only
to be sidetracked at Silver Spring and
see the o'clock train go by over half
an hour late. The next day, Tuesday, De-
cember 3, after a similar wait in line, and
the same old jam, the sos was again sent
out ahead. without even the opening of a
gate or the cali for the train A few
who had made their way through other
gates caught this train and were fortu-
nate enough to get through without being
side-traCked, The regular O'Clock train,
however, on the same day. scheduled to
make the first stop at Forest Glen. was

The fact is brought home to them every

The fact Is brought home to them every
market day, and, in connection with other
displeasing symptoms of our financial sit
uation, it is calculated to lead to much
serious thought. Meats, vegetables, fruits
and nearly everything that is meant for
the table have been rising in price in re-
cent months. The advance has been insidi
ously gradual in most cases, but the pro-
cess has been no less grindingly effective.
and with ANY interruption of earning
power by reason of strikes. or a recession
In the tide of business real suffering must
result to many classes of the people.
The cause of this state of affairs should
be made the subject of study by some
young man who desires doctors degree
for treatise on economics. We cannot
pretend to diagnose the case, which has
the appearance of being far from simple.
For good while past gold has been taken
from the earth in such quantities that
prices have been generally rising by rea-
son OF the abundance of money. Prices are
always high on the mere question OF de-
mand and supply alta time Of great indus
trial prosperity. A protective tariff demon
strably shelters sellers, SO that they can
exact greater profits than they could get
in an open market at the worlds levels.
This Is shown clearly by the fact that a
large and profitable export trade in many
lines Of products now carried on with
customers who pay less than we are
obliged to pay the same dealers for the
same products in this country. In addition
to all this. as affecting green produce par
ucularly, the season has not been propi-
tious and supplies are everywhere scarce.
Butter, eggs. milk and meats, in company
with vegetables, have risen to heights sug-
gestive of the greenback prices during and
after the war.
There are some who give little thought
to these things SO long as money is plenty
and employment Is good. Many more,
however, reflect upon the situation far
