The silver statesmen who visited .Japan last summer ought to make a. nepoit before the departure of Mr. Bryan for Mexico, and thus enable him to advise the Mexicans how to escape that horrible fatality which has drawn the most intelligent nations of the earth away from the fluctuating silver standard.

A ton of cancelled farm mortgagee is proposed as an interesting exhibit for the Trans-Mississippi Fxposition. The farmers of the entire Mississippi Valley could easily arrange this, but wouldu t t it be pretty hard on Mr. Bryan, right in his own State and under the shadow of his own editorial sanctum?

And now comes the second step, in the effect of the new tariff, the improvement in wages. The first improvement under a protective tariff of course would be that restating to the number of people employed as soon as the new law 'whs assured. This was for it will be remembered that there was a. marked increase in the number of people employed, even before the Dingley bill went upon the statute books. The second step' in the result of the measure is inoreased wages and that is now beginning to make itself apparent, Notices have been posted in The Mahoning Valley, in Ohio, announcing an increase of twenty per cent, in wages among the limestone operatives of that section, reports come from the iron mines of Michigan and Pennsyl\nania that wages there are to be increased ten per cent, on January first, while large numbers of manufacturing establishments in various parts of the country have already announced an increase in wages. It will be a Merry Christmas and a Haippy New Year to millions in the United States to whom the holiday season brought little of b. ' Witness in former years.
