tariff, this principle is entirely disregarded
A revenue tariff imposes no burdens upon
the people, except to pay the expenses OF the
government, avoiding, as far as possible, the
operation OF the present system, which imposes
double tax; the duties upon foreign imports
alone going into the treasury, while there is
another tax in the higher prices Of our own
manufactures, which makes up the enormous
profit OF the manufacturers This is as much
a tax on the people as though it was levied d.
rectly upon their property, and then paid from
Intentional treasury in the form of bounty
with this advantage in the last method, that it
would then fall upon each according to his

There are millions of women, earning
now a scanty subsistence by the needle in
both the old world and the new, who will
be thrown out Of employment by this
sel0in9 machine. What lies before them?
The work they have dope is done by a
thing of iron and wood IL one tenth Of the
price they now find too bw for more than
bare subsistence! Fold alas is made no

dying agony as they drop away by famine,
will be an accompaniment of the praises of
the admiring crowds that wonder at the
Heac mdchine.
There Is onIYppe remedy 10 this tenden-
cy ofmodern civilization. Bread must be
cheapened by some means in proportion to
other articles. Science must be directed to
agriculture Machines must here come
to the aid of the poor as they have hereto
fore alder the rich. With every invention
that cuts downin the laborer's wages, there
must be one that cnts down in proportion
the price ofhis daily bread. Until this is
done he has no hopes. Until this is done,
invention and science are the greatest en-
emieS he has.
The triumph of civiization-the solu-
ton ofthe great problem whetherthe world
can grow better or happier can never be
complete until this point is attained We
believe we stand on the verge Of some great
discovery in the APPLICATION of the great
modern wonderworker, Electricity or Gal
vanism, to agriculture AID animal life, that
will produce this result The man that
achieves the discovery will be almost a

by the Governor, to say that the inSinua-

then left the house, aud told SwiSher to

The money article of the New York
News. mentions a fact winch must be eX-
tremely interesting TO the cotton growers of
Louisiana and Mississippi In three
years, commencing with 1885, thirty mil
lions Of dollars, procured from New York
and London, were put into the cotton
banks, which all failed. In three years
$55,000,000 of actual money were poured
over the virgin soil Of those two States,
bringing into cultivation vast tracts otland
and doubling the crops between 1886 and
40; since when the purchase of land in
that region has been very small, and of
course the crop has scarcely increaScd.--
The present year, the crop, with the most
favorable weather, Is greater than ever. yet
IN those States, with The natural increase
of slaves, it has only been 100000 bales
creates than in 1910, and not so great as
in 1912. This is a very pregnant fact,
and it should have its full weight with the
trade, Ii shows that the great movements
OF 1885 8 have Just now produced their
maxim results, and that the vastly acceie-
rated productions in 1S364U have just
now been overtaken by consumption,
which is heuceforlh likely TO keep pace
with production The planting sections
have, therefore, in all probability cycle
OF prosperous years before them"
There is M quack reasoning in this.
Ii is far deduction from well known facts
and taken in connection with the activ-
ity Of the cotton manufacture in Britain
and in this country-.an activity which is
based on real demand--aud consequently
is permanent, the anticipation Of the able
writer ofthe article quoted, canuot fail TO
