FL LITT PT RT t the Post-Ofice 8 Mall Matter, Park Row, New York. Sntered at New York as Second-Cii VOLUME 42 nea UNEVEN PROSPERITY. The striking anthracite miners claim that, t the 10 per cent. incrense in wages in 1900, they are worse of than they were before, the increase in wages being more than offset by the 20 per vent. Increase in the price of everything they have to buy with their wages. | There is a great deal of force in the argument. ‘TY are certainly paying more than a 20 per cent, advan for the meat they buy-—assuming tha: they are able to bny any—and, in general terms, prosperity means high prices, High prices, however, do not necessur' mean | prosperity all arourd. Unless there is a uniform and equitable distribution of the results of the prosperity It) means that those who get less than their share are—as in the case of the miners—actual sufferers by the pros perity to which their labors contribute. | Our prosperity 4s undoubted, but has it been uni-) formly distributed? Have the miners had their share of it? Have they had as much of it, for instance, as the ¢oal users of the Steel Trust, or as the magnates of the! Coal Trust, or as the prosperous beneficiaries of the! Sugar Trust or the Beef Combine? H ‘The Lesson of Exper ‘rom his retirement ex-/ i: Viceroy Nixon could easily furnish to the young King | . Alfonao an impressive lesson on the vanity of human | greatness. A GREAT KINO IN A REPUBLIC. Tn token of his love for the Republic and in memory of “the splendid and cordial reception” we gave his brother, .the Kaiser offers us a bronze statue of Frederick the Great. He suggests, and President Roosevelt agrees with him, that it is “especially appropriate that the statue |‘ should be erected in the city of Washington, the capital of the Republic.” Frederick was a fine example of king, but just why he should be an appropriate figure in bronze for the con- templation of free-born Americans !s pot quite clear at first. A little reflection, however, reveals some reasons. The monarch who planted his fron heel on Poland would | ‘ of course approve of all our Philippine processes, the water cure included. The man who wrote pages of cas- uistry to Voltaire might compose, a century later, a very persuasive state paper on “benevolent assimilation.” The king who waged relentless war on a weaker monarch, a woman at that, to deprive her of a rich province would undoubtedly approve Uncle Sam's Cuban conquest. So altogether the bronze presence of Frederick national capital may not be so inappropriate as would ap- pear. We can understand what the deuce he is doing in that galley. Striking High.—The Beef Trust extortion has at last) reached the rich, and it now touches the pocket of the| ® Patrons of the most expensive hotels and restaurants. ven the haughty clubs have had to bow to the Trust and advance prices, Shall we hear of revolts in the clubs or of mobs of swells storming the fashionable hotels kitchens? It is only on the east side that reslst- ance to tyranny takes the form of overt acts.
