NEW YORK, Sept. S5.-George 81 uce
Cortelyor. Secretary of the Treasury.
In an al iress at the formal opening of
the new Wanamaker store in Astor
place last night declared that the Amer
lean wage-earners are the best paid
men and women in the world. and that
we have every reason to be proud OF
the American pay roll. because 1t has
no equal anywhere on earth.
Mr. Cortelyou was presented by John
Wanamaker. who said II gave him
pleasure to introduce a man who was
worker rather than a talker.
Mr. Cortelyou IN responding said IN
part:
New York has grown so big IN
everything-in wealth. in manufacture,
IN trade, in buildings, and, better still.
In those enterprises which have for
their end the moral uplift of the citi-
zen-that those New Workers. who. like
myself. are absent long enough to note
the tremendous changes may well mar

SHORT WEIGHTS COMMON
AMONG SMALL GROGERS
". &. Haskell

That short weights among a certain
class Of small grocers dong business In
this city is a common practice, and
enc from which the poorer classes suffer
most. and which demands constant
watching on the part Of inspectors. is
the declaration made by Col. W. c. Has
kell, Sealer OF Weights and Measures.
in his annual report to the Commits
sioners. He says that many OF the
frauds thus practiced are found in the
manipulation OF a certain automatic
computing scale extensively used in
Washington.
Similar practices are in vogue in the
sale OF coal in small quantities BY coal
peddlers. who sell 10 the poor. who
purchase in the smallest quantities. In
these sales the inspectors have found
that those least able TO bear the loss
are cheated in short weight Short
measure by produce hucksters and re-
tail dealers in the produce market has
attracted the attention OF inspectors.
Numerous prosecutions and convictions
have been brought to remedy these dis
r0nest practices.

BLACK MESA NATIONAL
 FOREST IS EXTENDED

WASHINGTON. July 22.-An addi- tion containing 554 .240 acres has been made to Black Mesa National Forest in Arizona by a proclamation signed by the president on July 12, 1907. The total area of that forest is now 2,5S4,- 4S0 acres.
 The addition lies in narrow strip along the northern boundary of the forest, extending west from the New Mexico line to Chayes Pass, and is in Apache, Navajo and Coconino coun- ties
 The northern portion of the Black Mesa National Forest includes prac- tically all of the pine timber on the north slope of the White range, east of the Mogollon Mesa and inn mediately north of the White Noun tain Apache Indian reservation. The timber on the addition consists of juniper, pinon and yellow pine.
 The enlargement of the Black Mesa National Forest has been deemed nee essary to protect the irrigated lands in the vicinity of Springersville, Fay Tor and Snowflake. The timber cover affords protection to part of the wat ershed of the Little Colorado river. The development of any lands suited to agriculture in the Black Mesa For est will not be hindered in the least, for such land is open to homestead application to the Forest Service; as to mineral claims. their location and development are no more restricted than claims on the public domain.

dom, s39.94 for France and s2215 for German This makes 1t clear that her business is in an undeveloped condition; but it is developing rapidly.
 She is making a more and more ef- fective use of credit, and her money per capita has increased 2S per cent in three years i. e., from S324 in 1902 to $4.15 in 1905. Most every year she imports gold on balance Tn 1902 she imported a net amount of i29,- 76S,357 yen (49.S cents), of which 3.470.567 yen came from the United States. From 1902 to 1905 her total stock of gold rose from $62, 500 900 to s69 300. .000-a gain of 11.6 per cent. Her monetary system is evidently not as strong as those of the four great nations of the world even if her small volume of money Is not counted against is. Its comparative weak ness lies in the small percentage of gold to other money.
 December 31st, 1905, her total stock of money consisting of S69 ,900,- 900 in gold, $43.300. 900 in silver and s155. .769, BPS in bank notes. The pro- portion of gold to total stock of money is therefore only 25.9 per cent, against 43.9 per cent for France, 47.0 per cent for the United States, 5S.2 per cent for Germany and CPS per cent for Great Briton. More over, her other money is increasing faster than her gold. From 1902 to 1905 her gold per capita increased from $1.31 only to $137, while her other money increased from S1.93 to s2.7S per capita. However, allow ance must be made for the fact that the smaller a nations volume of bus mess and stock of money the less chance there is for it's silver and pa per money to becqne inflated. All forms of Japanese money are main tained on a strict parity; and it is quiet possible that her favorable bal ance of trade may enable her to in- crease her proportion of gold when the necessit. arises.
 In spite of this weak feature of her monetary system, her banking sys- tenn seems to be stronger than ours. On Dec. 31. 1905, the total deposits of all her banks were 1,435, ,306, 1903 yen, while their cash was 222,316,95S yen. Hence the percentage of cash to deposits was 1855 per cent, and of that amount 140,160,514 was in gold and was held by the Bank of Japan. That constitutes alnl;Dst the entire stock of gold in the country, and the fact that the banks hold it all as reserve puts them in a very strong position. Nov. 12. 1906. the percent age of lawful reserve money to de- posits in all our national banks was only 1885, notwithstanding that the national banks carry such a large part of the cash reserves of all our banks. It is clear that. Japan's bank ing system is very strong; and it is also clear that as a nation she is laying solid foundations for future commercial and political greatness.

JAPAN'S STRENGTH.
Her industrial and Military Power will
 Not Be a Menace for Decades.
(Statist.l

(Statist)
 While 1t is true that the talk of war with Japan may be dismissed as a product of yellow journalism, yet in view of the fact that Japan is bound to become an important factor in the worlds international trade it is of interest to see just where her indus trial strength lies. In general it lies in the thoroughness, conservatism and physical endurance of her peo- pie: but in addition to that it lies in their strong feeling of nationalism. The whole nation is for every man, and every man is for the whole na- ton. Fair competition between a Japanese citizen and a foreigner in any territory which Japan either owns or controls is made just as near ly impossible as the Japanese govern ment and people can make it.
 No matter where a Japanese citi- zen is. he is working for the inter ests of Japan and is supported as far as possible by his government and people. So far as possible his gov ernment aids him in securing capital and in getting @ foothOld, and he in turn is for Japan as against the rest of the world. The evidence is that Japan is looking far into the future with a view to getting greater prac- ticaI control of business wherever large colonies of Japanese are To- cated, getting greater wealth and re- sources to build up her industrial and military power. and more territory 1 for her population to expand in. These characteristics make Japan a | source of danger to every other na- l ton exactly in proportion as such na- tiOns contain Japanese population. But in spite of her effective and in, sidiols methods of aggrandizement she will not be a menace to any of i the greatest nations of the world for many decades. because her trade, re. sources and financial power are not sufficiently developed. This is clear. 1 ly shown by her monetary system. 1 The amount of money in circulation l is a pretty fair index to a nation business development, because the more business that is done the more money it akes to do it, i. e.. after al. l lowing for the use made of credit ia. cilities. The amount of money in cir. culatiOn in Japan is only S415 per capita, against S32O2 for the United States, $1S.O2 for the United Kind
