The condition of General Smith ought
rtt present to satisfy the peaceful
"aunties" who have so persistently
criticised his methods of dealing' with
the dusky fiends of the Philippines.
The Cat Out of the Bag.
PnoFESson bigelow, or
Boston, has discovered the
cause of the difference In
temperature of the hot and
cold seasons, and has cheerfully made
Unown the results of hla Investigations.
His explanation Is as follows:
The hot s-eason Is Inaugurated by a
targe nn-.i ot high pre.ure over the At
'antlo. Tin: tendency of thu. little wind
n motion In this area Is from southeast
o southwest, extending Its ntmosphere
jver the country. This large area of high
pressure Is attended by a corresponding
low-pressure movement north of this
area, and which proceeds in whirls of
wind eastward. As this cooler, northern
current is, howexer, relatively feeble. It
J.i not sulllclent to disturb the area of
high pressure, and It continues to pile
lp, ns It were, lnyer after layer of hot
olr above the earth's surface. These lay
ers continue to pile up as long as the
lurge area of high pressure persists, and
to we have a long and exceptional season
of hot weather.
The converse of this takes placo when
only a small area of high pressure is
formed over tho Atlantic. For this area
Is attended by a correspondingly strong
movement of low pressure to the north.
This strong and cool northern current
rushes in and prevents tho formation of
hot layers over tho country. The stag
nant air Is swept out and tho space re
filled by cooler air. Then we have a cool
season. It Is, therefore, tho size of the
area of high pressure which makes the
9lfferenco between -a hot and a cold sea
ion. A largo area, hot weather; small
irea, cool summer.
The statement of Professor Bigelow
ertalnly simplifies matters. All that Is
ecessary now Is for some scientist to
iggest tho best methods of regulating
le "pressure," and the bureaus In
.ture will be able to furnish at will
.i article in the way of weather that
innot fall to please everybody.
The last four years of Democratic
ale left the country plunged In disaster
nd almost despair, but after six years
of Republican rule, tralllc is so con
gested that the greatest railroad sys
tems in the world cannot handle it.
A Big Mexican Project.
RECENT Issue of the Mexi
can Journal of Commerce
gives details of an Interest-
JTjL
t ing economic experiment
bout to be undertaken in President
Diaz's domain. An Incorporation
known us the Mexican-Asiatic com-
pany has recently secured from the
Mexican Rovernment two valuable
concessions. Tho first elves It the
right to run a line of steamships be
tween the west coast of Mexico and
Asia and Its Islands and the Hawaiian
Islands. Also a lino of coastwise
steamers operating on the west coast
of Mexico. The concessionaires have
a year from tho present time In which
to get both lines In operation but ex
pect to have them in operation some
time In the fall of the present year.
T&ielr vessels will carry passengers
nml-frclglit as common carriers destined-to
nil Asiatic and Mexican ports.
The steamers will be of adequate size
for the business und of good class.
Tho second part of the concession gives
tho concessionaires the right to take
all products o( the sea, excepting
pearls, from six different zones on Iho
west coast of Mexico with an aggre
gate coast lino of something like 1,600
miles. Tho companies expect to dis
tribute ulong the coast a number of
Chinese, fishermen and the shipment
will bo made mostly to China, where
thero Is a large market for dried and
cured llsli,
But from an American standpoint
the most Interesting feature of this
enterprise Is the declared purpose of
Its'pr'oniotera to Import Aslatlo labor
Into Mexico. One. of these presents his
arguificn& 'llius; '"If production In
Mexico were Intended only for con
BinnBUon, Within Mexico, there would
, probably be enough Mexican laborers
to answer the demands of such pro
duction, at the present state of the
consuming power of the nutlon, but
the condition here a not such, und
there has come to Mexico foreign skill
and capital, which arc producing not
for Mexican consumption; this foreign
power of consumption la unlimited, and
' eo may tilt- production of these forclen
persons In Mexico bo unljmllod, buL
for one thing, that Is that the labot
Is not here to meet their prospects.
These foreigners bring cnpltnl runl
skill, but they do not bring Inbor. They
depend upon the cdttntry In which they
Invest their money, und to which they
"pply their skill, to meet them with.
labor. That labor Is not here to meet
them, and It tins long been obvious,
Hint unless labor were obtainable from
some foreign source the Incoming to
Mexico of foreign skill und capital
to engnge In development, enterprises
must cense, and the progress and
movement of tho country receive a
check from which It could recover only
by tho slow process of Increase of la
borers through birth.
"To meet this condition, Mexico has
tried to secure labor from various
quarters of the world. Italians from
southern Italy have been Imported;
Portuguese have been brought thither,
but both without success. F.fforts
have been made to get colonies heto
from the East Indies, but the govern
ment of Lord Curzon refused to per
mit the laborers to leave India, for
other than British colonies. The gov
ernment of Japan has been besought,
only to give tho reply that Japan Is
directing her emigration to Formosa
and cannot permit It to move to Mexi
co In any numbers. The Japanese,
however, come from a temperate cli
mate and are not suitable to the trop
ics; at least, not so well suited us tho
Chinese. The latter Is a tropical man,
and he Is, above all, the laborer best
fitted to work In tropical Mexico." In
short, the purpose of this new devel
opment company is to "coollelze" the
Industry of Mexico.
"We have no doubt that the need In
Mexico of men who will work steadily
and be manageable Is very great. But
we fear that It will be hard to keep
these Chinese on the Mexican side of
the border; and most nssuredly they
are not wanted In the United States.
In Uncle Sams' treasury gold is now
accumulated to the snug sum of JjGI,
391,00.1. This Is more than half the gold
supply of the country. It Is, in all
probability, the largest amount of gold
ever stored away. In the history ot the
world. A statistician declares that It Is
moie by a hundred millions than all the
gold In the British Isles, Is nearly as
much as all the gold In France, and
about three-quarters of the amount In
Germany. This shows the wisdom of
the Republican sound money policy.
Cab Charges In Germany.
VISITORS to New. York who
have come in contact with
New York cab drivers will
be interested In what a Lon
don correspondent of the Sun has to
say about cab charges In Europe.
Even In Scranton this subject will have
Interest. In most of the countries of
Europe, while cab charges are nominal
ly lower than In the United States, the
drivers, by one method or another,
manage to extort from the uninitiated
traveler a liberal overcharge. It has
remained for Germany to provide a
system under which the tourist Is as
sured of absolute protection. This Is
the correspondent's description of It:
"The visitor to Berlin with baggage
will probably have his first experience
with an exact duplicate of the London
four-wheeler, which passes under the
name of a 'gepack' drosky, or baggage
cab, capable of carrying things on the
roof. If he has no heavy baggage
there are three classes of cabs to
choose from; the flrst-clas drosky,
which is like a New York hack, with
side doors and folding leather top, but
only one horse; the second-class dros
ky, a smaller, dirtier vehicle, with a
very poor horse; the taxometer drosky,
so named be'eause of the machine which
It carries for measuring fares. The
taxometer Is a duplicate of the French
flacro In appearance, with no side
doors, a top over the back only, a large
seat behind and a small folding ledge
In front. These three classes of ve
hicles can bo distinguished by a glance
at the drivers' hats. The first-class
drosky drivers wear black enameled
plug hats with a silver band. The sec
ond class have the same hats, but very
faded looking, with gold bands. The
taxometers all wear white enameled
plug hats with black bands.
"The little machine from which the
taxometer cabs take their name can do
everything but think. It Is a combi
nation of cyclometer, adding machine,
timekeeper and lightning calculator.
The machines are placed on the seat to
tho right of the driver and present to
tho traveler a round dial, about a foot
In diameter, on which appear various
sets of figures which peep through lit
tle luunil holes. Tho largest figures are
for the class of tax to bo collected.
First class, a figure 1, In red, Is for
ono or two persons. Second class, fig
ure L', In blue, Is for three or more per
sons, Flguro 3, in black, Is for out
side the city limits or after midnight.
A full explanation of what all the fig
ures mean Is printed underneath. Chil
dren do not count.
"The taxometer Is worked by a stud
on tho hub ot the rear wheel. Every
time this wheel makes a complete revo
lution It clicks just like a cyclometer.
How much It multiplies before It
reaches the smaller figures on tho face
of the taxometer depends on which of
the larger figures, J, 2, 3, has been set
by tho driver. The smaller figures
show the amount of money that Is to
be paid. Everything begins nt 00 pfen
nings, or 12 cents, which Is the smallest
charge for any distance, How far you
can travel for this 12 cents depends on
tha tnx number set by the lurge fig
urcs, und tho DO pfennigs will not ad
vance to 60 until this Initial distance
has been covered.
"For first tux this distance Is about
1,100 yards; for second tax about three
quartets as far, and for third tax a lit
tle more than half, As soon as this Ini
tial distance has been covered tho tax
ometer begins to advance, 10 pfennigs
at a time, far every additional 500 yards
for first tax, and for shorter distances
In proportion for tho other tuxes. As
long us you drive, this cash register Is
continually before you und you cun
tell at uny moment how much you
have spent up to that time. If you
stop during a journey, to make a pur
chase in u shop, for Instance, tho clock
work part, of tho taxometer goes on
and charges you so much a minute for
uniting for you. If you pasB beyond
the city limits, the tux In altered to
No. 3 nnd the pfennigs pllo Up a. little'
faster, If you havo pieces of baggage
to be carried on the sent beside the
driver, the taxometer charges so much
for each of them on a separate dial
and presents the whole bill at tho end
of the Journey. There can be no dis
putes about the rate of faro or the dis
tance or the time. You bcc to It that
the proper tax number Is set when you
get In, and what you have to pay when
you get out Is a mathematical, cer
tainty. "These droskys stund on side Btrccts
or drive slowly along looking for trade.
When a drosky Is disengaged n little
red sign with tho word 'Frel' on It
announces the fact and the position of
this sign disconnects tho taxometer
from the cyclometer on the hub ot Iho
wheel, so that In a drosky running
round In senrch of fares the taxometer
does not register and must be at zero.
Tho moment you step Into the vehicle
this littles red sign Is pushed down out
of sight and tho tax flguro Is set ac
cording to tho number of .people get
ting Into the vehicle. The same motion
that sets the figures starts tho clock
work that registers stoppages. You
may be certain that you will get your
full distance for the first 50 pfennigs
from the place where the little red
'Frel' sign Is pushed down. When you
stop to go Into a shop nnd leave the
drosky empty, a little green sign Is
pulled up which notifies the public
that the vehicle Is engaged. The mo
ment the little red sign Is pulled up
again the whole mechanism goes back
to zero. These taxometer cabs are In
use In all the principal cities of Ger
many." Good corn nnd wheat crops mean big
Republican majorities. President Har
rison In his second race gained in nearly
every city and town, but lost In all
wheat-growing sections, and these de
feated his re-election. Singularly
enough both crop and prices were poor,
the all-world crop being exceptionally
large. Sixty cent wheat was then for
the first time a novelty. Corn prices
were likewise very low, so low as to
cause many to use it for fuel. The
Republican party believes In good prices
and1 Its Interests run In the same
direction,
The revolutionists at Barcelona who
profess to be fighting for liberty and a
betterment of conditions generally, ap
pear to have been more bloodthirsty
and cruel than their former oppressors
when allowed free hand over the cap
tured city. Unless the accounts of the
surrender of Barcelona have been very
much exaggerated, the future of the
country If left to the revolutionists Is
not promising.
Judge Pennypacker will not falter on
any of the leading Issues of the day,
and especially will he stand up for his
party In s acquisition of the territory
of Alaska, Hawaii, Porto Rico and the
Philippines. He knows that under the
aegis of the American flag the Ignorant,
pitiable, half-civilized- creatures of the
Philippines will be raised to a high
level of citizenship.
Stripped of unnecessary verbiage
the three "issues" declared by the
Democratic congressman are:
Subordination of American interests
to foreign ones.
Enactment of cumulative and there
fore superfluous anti-trust legislation.
Resumption of tariff tinkering.
,,
General Urlbe-Urlbe, of the revolu
tionary party, exhibits symptoms of
cold feet at a nattier unexpected period
In the campaign.
-President Castro has evidently de
cided that the time is near when a
foielgn tour will be the best thing for
his health.
If the Individual who predicts a hot
September falls, weather prophets in
general might as well retire from busi
ness. OUR FOREIGN TBADE.
Tho Pittsburg Dispatch says; "James
Ilees & Sons recently shipped a new boat
to South America, and they are building
another for the soma country. The boats
wro built hero nnd shipped in pieces to
that country, where they aro put togeth
er and mudo ready for servlco on the
Mugdalena liver. As soon as the Insur
rection in Colombia is over Rees & Sons
expect to get contracts for a number of
boats. Tho firm In question nns probably
built more steamboats for South America
than any other in the world."
Our exports In May, 1M2, were J102.621,
031, exceeding our Imports of $73,OS!,0&7. by
$20,0.tl,!UI, or in other words wo gained
J27.000.C0O. approximately In national
wealth In thut ono month, against a na
tional loss in .May, 1S93 (Democratic), of
$G,Ki!),880 for excess of Imports. This en
titles Republican policies to a credit of
VB.931.SSfl tor May, 1WI2, over May, 193.
"Tho fact that new avenues huvo been
opened up for the output of American
factories, workihops, mills, fields and
farms cannot bo successfully contested."
Now York Times (Democratic).
Tho following figures of tho baluuco of
trade for ono month May each, of tho
four Democratic ypiirs,'JS93-lS97, compared
with tho four Republican years, 1S9S-1S01,
amply certify to tho vulue of Republican
control;
Imports exceed. Exports exceed.

Imports rushed to avoid tariff,
Excess of imports Is national loss. Ex
cess of exports Is national gain.
Another evidence In Republican favor
Is tho fuct that our exports of manufac
tories for tho llscnl year Just clohed, were
1M,000,000, over 1S90 (Democratic).
Tho following compuilson of our exports
