Tlie treas- '" ury surplus troubles Mr. Ii)iie terribly, 'S dsnd he urgej the- necessity of an immediate ;& reaucuen ei me revenue, out seems te have small hepe that this can be accem- ? pllshed because public men are timid about undertaking a reduction. 1 here is a geed deal in this, and the half-hearted way in which many public men talk and act shows that they are mere afraid of of fending the protection sentiment than of failing In their duty a3 legislators. Colonel Payne suggests as a way out of the ditll culty that the surplus should be spent en forts and ships; asserting that we need both badly, but this would be only a temporary expedient, for the surplus would seen gie us all the defenses needed, and then we would have te leek around for sonie ether holes te sink the money in. Ne doubt plenty of them would be found, but soenei or later the people would call a halt In this system of taxation beyond the needs of the government and return of the surplus through government works. IVrhaps by that tlme the growth of our foreign com merce will have rendered protection un necessary. The Heuse ei Cengres. This Congress adjourns for the holidays, with nethipg accomplished in a political gftjV way and nothing premised for the two remaining months of its existence. It lu3 been a largely Democratic Heuse, which has been geed te the country but net te itself. The Democratic majority has been tee large and tee badly led te have bjeu able te unify the party as it should have done. If the president had net been a firm in wUl- .i pel ey ,the pai ty would net be in its present fair condition. There lias bcennnem"M ingress with the aptitude te lead a majerit) . Mr. Itaudall's power te in the lead of a minority. Mr. Mor rison could lead but a faction. Mr. Car lisle, commanding the applause of all par ties, lacked obviously a leader's aggressie force. The president, alone of all the men who are te settle its affairs at Washington, premises the capacity of a great party leader. He lias the force, intelligence and pesitive will that are needed, with the magnanimity that is essential; and the tnist of the party is that he can command the following of the coming Heuse which is Democratic b less than a score and which cannot divide its Democratic strength. "With a clesei icsi ensibility fixed upon every Democratic member the probability of united actieu is increased and it needs but the hand of a wise leader te inake the smal ler Democratic foieeof the coining Heuse mere valuable te the patty than the strength of this one has been. J'lilliitlelplila'i Filler. The Republican city leaders and eity or ganizations In Philadelphia have united upon Edwin II. I'itler for mayor, who was presented by the Union Lcague as one of the half-dozen citizens of the town decent enough for the receipt of its support, and who has been accepted by the party leaden ai the one least decent, fet their support. Mr. Filler Is therefore a remaifeable man, and with all this Uepubllcan unanim ity in his te. ir he w 11 no doubt be the next mayor of the town. It would be a pity net te gle a chance for the exposition of the quality of a mayor he commands the support of the diverse elements of Philadelphia Republicanism. Philadelphia is a Republican town and Tiller's fitness te be Us mayor, wheu ull Its Republicans agree upon him, is net te be nt present challenged. The test of the pudding will be In the eating thereof . It 3 net every puddiug or every man who turns out te be ns gfted as everybody thinks he leeks te be, and Tltler may be of this seit.and thete llve Republican leader, of umllssembled rascality, may knew it. Hut we hope otherwise, since I'itler is te be mayor, fei Philadelphia is our town and we wish for it geed. There has cerlaluly been a wonderful cutting down of mayoralty timber In getting this straight stick and it ought te turn out te be a sound piece, though of ceurse net the tough hickeiy that would have ceme out of a Democratic forest. pL ,, no ciiristinas Carels. j-uowuceuiraiionor se much shopping into the weeks before Christmas, has come tt) make Christmas present buying a very laborious and unpleasant undertaking.

This is the tlme when peeple of nieder. ate means most frequently break the com mandment against covetousness. They de net se often wish for things beyond their means with a purely selfish motive, but they wish they could afford te gle ether people handsome pi esents. Xew net many of them step te think of the matter from the point of the friends who would receive the gifts. The exchange must be of near ly equal value, or some ene will feel hurt that his gift has been se completely over shadowed by what he has received.

TiiERUisa turau of statistic In Wash ington and Senater Geerge, of Mississippi, has maile an effort te get a little information out of It. lie wanted te knew hew the wealth of the country was distributed, and whether the lncreased value of agricultural land had come "through the Increase of population or the intrinsic value of the land ItseU." Fortunately that redoubtable statis tician Edwara Atkinson happened te be In Washington and came te the rescue of the chief of the bureau with a vast quantity of interesting information. He tells us that though we are the richest country In the world, the value of our accumulated capital, Including railroads, factories, mines, ceeds, dwellings Ac, is only equal te the wealth produced in tw e and a halt years and that we are only that far ahead of the wolf at the deer. UesayB that the productive caplclty of each factory operative Is from fifty te two hun dred pr cent, greater than It was In 1SC0, ew Ing te Improved machinery. " InvenUen has reduced the capital and increased the product advanced the wagea and reduced the cost of labor." Mr. Atkinson lays It down as a demonstrated general fact that in the country factory labor produces much mere new than In lM : that the laborers are mere highly paid, and that at the eaine time their wages will buy them mere, dollar for dOilir, of what they consume, than In 1-60 or at any subneriuent period. His arguments are tmed n the census of Ks), and after a careful Investigation of the number em pleyed In various occupations for gatn, he lludH tfiat net mere than ten per cent, of all who de the work el the country can have accumulated any considerable amount of property, upon the inceme et which they could te auy great extent depend without working fur a living themselves. After an elaborate aeries of comparlxens of prices in 1S60 and 1S0, he reaches the conclusion that the werklngmen of the country were never se well etrai they are at this time. He also Hsys that the power of capital te secure Inceme has been diminished seventy-Uve percent, in twenty-live years, yet the pro duct has Increased se rapidly that the -We of the capitalist Is as large, In fact, as it was In IsiV). He seema te prove that a skilled lulierer can procure from eighty te ene hundred ier cent, mere for a year's work than he could In IsOe, and n common laborer from forty te fltty percent, mere, and se reaches a conclu sion directly at variance with that of Henry Geerge, for he says : ' While the rich may have grown no poorer the peer have steadily become richer." He attributes the depres sion we have Just passed through te the adjustment el capital and labor tonewcondl tenewcondl tonewcendl tIons,aud te the result of speculative railway building.

Through the Clinch mountains the rend will pis by Moccasin Gap, the enlv pis In the range for 100 mlk , nnd the route w ill then lie directly through what the general declares Is a marvelously rich coal field, Uve or six horizontal seauis of great thickness lying one abive the ether in the hills that rise en each side of the re.il. Much of this is coking coal of the best 'polity for Iren working, vvhlle there is also a very large supply ei goei cannei coal. At Ashland there are nt present 1- Mast furnaces in operation, and 3., mere in the adjacent district. General Wilder says tbee turnaces have long been starving en inferior grades of ores, Lake Superior and ether, for which they bsve been pivln S- 3 ten. When the t.ew line 1 completed the best quality ere Irem the Cranberry seam will be delivered there for $. 50 a tun, and already eilers have been made te take 1, V, 000 tens annually. It will thus be possible, says General Wilder, te minnfacturothe best grades of steel as cheaply us the inferior grades are new nis.de further s-euth. The ero and coal beds are se situated that trains carrying ere northward te the existing fur nace region w 111 come back laden with coal, and a great Iren working Industry will be created all along the route. Anether advantage that will accrue from the opening up of the coal flel is is thatc.innel vJ, which new costs 511 In ?ew- 'ierfc, will then be deliverable here, aud pretitabl v se, at SS. Te show the advantage te the districts allected, General Wilder mentioned that the railway company made n greater nreht en freight and passenger carriage from a tiugie iron working centre in southeastern Tennts see, with only two furnaces and a population efA'l0i than from the whole town or l.xiug l.xiug ten, Ky , with a pnpu'atlen of . wa The profit te the firmers is immense, for the men engaged in tbee works always spend their money freely and never trouble te raise anv thing for their en consumption, se th'at every chicken or sweet potato brought te market In such neighborhoods has an assured value.
