The depressioa in the uricea of agricul

and a b toyint and hopeful tone was

'have been in some degree checked
by the, surprising and very nnLtvora

ing to know that these did not (row ia
any degree out of the financial relatione
of London with onr people, or out rf any
discredit attached to oar swurrtiea held

ar.d Mexico, burn of close neighborhood
and strengthened by many considerations
of intimate intercourse and reciprocal

creased benefit to both nations. The in
tercourse of tbe two countries by rail,
already great, is making constant growth.
The established lines and those recently
projected add to the intimacy of traffic
and otfer new channels of access to fresh
areas of demand and sunp'y. The im
portance of the Mexican raiiway system
will be further enhanced to a degree al
most impossible to forecast if it should

Tbe cordial character of onr relations
with Spain, the President says, warrants
the hope that by the continuance of the
methods of friendly negotiatioa msch
may be accomplished in the direction of
and adjtistmentof the pending question
and of the increase of our trade. TLe
extent and development of our trade
with the Island cf Cuba invent the com
mercial relations of the United States
and Spain with a peculiar importance. It
ia not doubted that a special arrangement
in regard to commerce, based upon the
reciprocity provision of tbe recent Tariff
act, would operate most beneficially for
both governments. This subject is now
receiving attention.
From the time of my induction into
ollice the duty of using every power and
influence given by law to the Executive
iJepartrrent for the development ot larger
markets for our products, and esttecially
our farm prodacts, has been kept con
stantly ia mind, aad no effort ba beea
or wiil be spared to promote that end.
We are under no disadvantage ia any
foreign market except that we pay our
workmen and workwomen better wasjes t

better relativelv to tbe eos of the

and does not impair either the comity
due to other powers or what is known as
the "favored nation cUnee," so generally
found in commercial treaties. What is
given to one for aa adequate agreed con
sideration connot be claimed by another
freely. The state of the revenues waa
such that we could dispense with any

great advantages. It expresses ia advance
the cuodest ol Congress to reciprocity ar
rangements affecting these - prod'K'ta
which most otherwise have been delayed
and Bcsxrertained antil such treaty was
ratiflex! by the Senate and the necessary
legislation enacted by CoDgress. E x peri
ence has shown that some treaties look

cure a two-thirds vote ia tbe Senate fcr

that stage, have for years awaited the
concurrence of the House and Senate iu

as were necessary to give tfect to their

Houses ia advance ia a distinct and defi

shall be agreed upon, as on equivalent
for osr cpneession, a proclamation of that
fact completes the transaction, and, in
the meantime, our own people have free

The indications thus fargivea are very
hopeful of early and favorable action by

intrusted to it care. A very substantial
improvement ia the market prices of the
leading farm products during the year is j
noticed. The pnee of wheat advanced
from cents in October, 1-S3,to J!.
in (ctober, I SCO ; corn from 31 cents to
")0 cents; oats from 10', cents U4; cents,
and barley from ii.5 cents to 7 cents.
Meats snows a substantial but not so
large an increase. The export trade in
increase. The export trade ia beef and
dairy products was very largely increas
ed, the increase ia tbe article of butter
alone being from 1. 5,504,375 pounds to
-T,74a,042 pounds, and the total increase
ia the value of meat and dairy prodacts
exported being SU.OOO.OOO. This trade,
so directly helpful to the farmer, it is be
lieved wiil be yet further and very largely
increased when the system of inspection

ty law is brought fully into operation.
The Civil Service law has, the Presi
dent says, been executd with fidelity

been increasing satisfa.'torily. The Presi
dect congratulates Congress and the
ccantrv upon the passage at the Srt ses-
sioa of the Fifty-first Congress of aa na-
usnal number of laws or high import
ance. The rtsu'ts of this legislation will
he the quickening and eolargeu-ent of

ment and better wages for our woiking
people. .

ditions throrrg?lout the country have, the
President say shown market! improve

ing of the business prosperity, says the
production of pig iron, always a good
gauge of the general prosperity, U show a
by a recent census bulietia to have been
li! per cent, greater in 1&0 than in 1-S ,
and the production of steel -V rer tent,
greater. Mining in coal has had no limi
tation except that reuniting from deficient

is that labor is everywhere fully employ

a smaller number of employes affected

The bnstueM of this meeting, as state-1

all the members attacluid their signature
hea Giles D. Pierce laid before the
Coaiaiissioa a printed copy of the major
ity report, which is signed by Messrs.
Piercy, Martin, Wherry, Tags-art and
Rhone.
This report is alj.-esse.l to tbe Senate
aad House of Representatives of the
Common wealth of Pennsylvania, and
contains a complete explanation of the
act to be submitted to the Legislature by
the Commission, and in its opening state
ment says :
" We have coafiaed our efforts to tbe
revisiua of our local tax laws, without
disturbing our present system of State
revenues, for prudential reasons, stated
in the general report of the Commission
The press annual earning or income
from trades, professions, occupations or
iaveRta.ent of money or capital, not in
exce of 100 for each natural person,
shall constitute Class 5, this constituting
a section in theclassirijatioaof property
for taxation.
This sectioa coald subject incomes to
the same rate of taxation as property.
The mere advanced student of the sub
ject of fixation believe that ttrtaxAtioa
of incomes wi.l be the only source of
public revenue in the future. However,
Ui is we believe, that our present taxiag
machinery is not adapted to the thor
systeru, nor do we believe that public
sentiment is now ready for such a sweep
ing reform. We thick it more prudent
to make it auxiliary to a general proper
ty tax until the people become familiar
with it.
Experience has showa that it is well
nih as dirhcult to mike a perfect eqaali- j
ution of values oa real estate as it U to
seccrti a fail and fair return of pars jaal
