Salt. and the Tariff.
FDIroR OF THE PALLADIuM :.

EDITOR OF THE PALLADIUM
l rejoice to sec that your paper I
is open-te the discussion Of that
important question, The Tariff"
which so materially affects the sew
eral Industries Of our county. Il
do not, however, propose to be
come at this tine a party in the
discussion ] would chiefly call
attention to some of the statements
Of 'volo" in your paper of jam
airy Fl, in relation to the article OF
salt. I observe, first, that salt is q
commodity from which the general
effects Of the protective policy can
not be satisfactorily illustrated
Its price is sometimes affected by
State legislation, especially where
the salt springs are subject to the
control of the State, and by other
causes.
1t is we'll known that David
Wells, special Commissioner OF In
ternal Revenue, is a decided oppo-
nent Of the protective policy. Yet
he says, in his Report Of 1869, that
it is "difflcult to trace any definite
or constant connection between the
prices Of the imported article,
(salt, and the duties that may be
imposed upon it," He then sub
sinas s .aae!e Of reRR rc SIX e. and r}h ss
rates OF duty thereon. from Is4I,
when it was free Of duty, until
1862" That Report shows the
average prices, as follows:
ls41, Duty free -. Price, bushel, 90 cts.
1865, about ~, 32lz
1857, Duty ah;ut ~ bu +" Is "
1851, 4c g 81
1857 1857 July july, % about 7s4o bu. : 20 :"
From the above it will be seen,
that under the duty of s cents per
bushel imposed by the Tariff 81
1912, the price was 4 cents bush
ell less than in 1e4l, when salt was
free Of duty, and that under Folks
low tariff of q cents per bushel,
the price was 324 cents do not
refer to these facts to prove that
the price was reduced by the in
crease Of duty, but merely TO show
that salt is not an article by which
the operation of protective tariff
can be satisfactorily ties ted.
If "Volo" is of different opin
ion. will he tell US why the price
from 1916 to 1856 was u cents s
bushel higher, under the reduced
duty Of p cents, than when The
duty was 8 cents 81
l have not seen his previous ar
ticles but | judge from hastJ
perusal OF the one before me, tina
he draws his facts(?) and argu
ments from Free Trade authority
which is that of American import
ers leagued with British merchant
and m manufacturers, whose MILLION
are increased in proportion as pro
lection is withdrawn from domestic
manufactures or in other words
in proportion as we are made de
pendent upon foreign labor for tn
necessaries of life. Three times
since the war of 1915, has GU
country been plunged into th
"lowest deep" Of commercial EN-
barrassment, and its ind ustry pros
trated, by the policy recommends
to Us by British statesmen and
seems as if many of our own eli:
zens need one more experiment t
convince them that their theory {

YOUNG Prussian officer who doubted the
love of his atiianced bride, requested after the
battle OF Gravelotte, one of his friends at home
to inform the young lady that he (the oaicer)
was among the killed, and to report to him how
she would receive the news. The friend COM
piled with the officers request, but the letter
which was to convey the report of the young La
dy demennor brought to the officer the terrible
news of her death, the young girl having com
mtted suicide the night after his friends sad
communication. The young officer was SO i'm
pressed with the catastrophe, and felt so much
aggrieyed at the death of his fair young bctroth-
matte asylum, and his case is pronounced hope
less.

was stalwart young rustic, who was known as
a formidable operator in a free fight. His bride
was blooming and beautiful country girl, only
sixteen years of age, and the twain were at a
party where u number of young folks of both

ALWAYS WRoNG.-Dnring the ten years which
they have surrendered TO the Republicans, says
an exchange the Democracy were as bitterly
denunciatory of the Republican party as now.
Since it is conceced that the Republican party
was right during those ten years, isn't it proba-
bly, just as right now ? And since the Democ-
racy were conlessedly wrong during those ten
years, isn't it probable that they are just as
wrong now

Completion and Test of the Longest
Bridge on the American Continent.
ST. LOUIS, May ga dispatch from st.
Charles, Missouri, says the excursion party,
numbering nearly three hundred, which
left St. Louis this morning, has just passed
successfully over the most magnificent
bridge on this continent. The test of the
strength of this bridge was a severe one. 1t
was made with eight locomotives and nine
teen cars crowded with people, all being on
the bridge at once. The total weight is
estimated at nine hundred tons. The citi
zens of st. Charles and the surrounding
country received che party, and are cele-
brating the event with great enthusiasm.
The extreme length of this bridge and ap-
proaches is $50 feet; of the bridge proper
PIG feet The number of spans is seven,
ranging from 305 to 322 feet in length All
the piers rest on solid rock, and range in
height from rs to l45 feet, according to the
depth of rock under the river. This bridge
was begun on September IA, 1868. under the
charge of Captain G.. Shaler Smith, chief
engineer; Joseph Sherrard, chief assistant
engineer; c. c. Ucrenstell, general super
intendent.
The bridge is owned by company, and
is leased by the North Missouri Railroad
Company at an annual rental of $780,
Its completion will enable the road TO
shorten the time three hours between here
and Ottumwa, Iowa.

barreled gun, heavily loaded. and with a
revolver. The citizen inquired why he
came at that time, afoot and so armed.
Minis replied that he had had a difficulty
with James McClapahan, that his mare had
escaped, and that his two friends were to
bring her to him at Bellevue that evening.
He remained with the citizen until about
two o'clock, and then left afoot. The citi-
zen knew nothing of the murder; indeed,
we at Bellevue did not hear of it until ten
o'clock of that day. This citizens name,
from prudential motives, has not been given
U.S. Thus has Minis fastened the deed upon
himself, by his own acts and acknowledge
ments. ...
The two friends have not been seen in the
neighborhoOd of Bellevue, and it is quite
probable that, with the true honor of
thieves, they have deserted Minis.
