The Sugar Interest.

Washington, 49, Sugar refners sre
irving to counterfeit the evident tendency
TO terminate the reciprocity treaty with
Hawaii. Chairman Williams, of the
foreign affairs committee, to-day, received
an official letter from representatives of
1.-THE sugar refners, asking hearing for
their Joint committee. As the subject
was closed at the last session Williams
was unable to give favorable reply.
but informed the committee that he
would lay the matter before the foreign
affairs committee next Friday, and en-
deavor to obtain definite expression.
A representative of the sugar interest
who is stationed in Washington to watch
Legislation, said to-day that be had in.
formed his clients there would un-
doubtedly be q general revision Of the
sugar tariff satisfactory to the sugar
interest this session.
Washington, 49, Secretary Folger
has addressed a letter to the collector of
customs at New York, on Hawaiian su-
gar. The following is q copy: I have
considered the appeal Of Watyer, Tael
% Co., from your assessment of duty on
certain sugar, imported by them from
Hawaiian Islands. After reciting their
protest, the secretary says: The treaty re-
ferred to guarantees free importation in
ports of the United States, Of Muscavado,
brown and ell other kinds OF sugar,
meaning thereby grades of sugar kereto-
fore commonly imported from the Ha-
waiian Islands, and down in the markets
of San Francisco and Portland at the
time the treaty was passed on Sandwich
Hand sugar. Samples OF the imports-
ton have been submitted to officers of
customs of San Francisco and Portland,
who declare it to be the grade OF sugar
which was commonly imported from
the Hawaiian Islands prior TO the adop-
ton of the treaty. This sugar is unrefned
and was manufactured by the vacuum
process. and ia Of quite q high grade.
Assuming that the question involved is
one Of fact, the weight of evidence sub
mitted is in favor Of the appellant, such
sugar having been imported from the
Hiwaiian Islands, both before and since
the adoption Of the treaty in large guam
titles, the appeal is in sustained and you
are directed TO reliquidate the entry free
Of duty.

Some persons have remarked that if
Pierce county accepts the island road
and bridge and the ferries are taken
too, the proceeds derived therefrom
would support the road, but the pro.
ceeds would not begin to support it,
and never has and never will, unless
more ferriage is charged to which
Red Wing would object. 1t is very
we'll for those to talk in favor of this
road who own no land. what 90 they
care for the taxes or those who are
directly interested in the road. Per-
haps Pierce county thinks that this is
source of great revenue through
her wood trade. Very well. Is there
any wood man who has got rich at the
business Red Wing is poor mar
ket. The present year is the only
time that wood men made more than
expenses, and the coming season
shows signs of low prices, as coal is
moving into Red Wing very rapidly.
We emphatically say that the wood
trade has not paid our people, but has
benefited Red Wing by furnishing fuel
very cheap. And we igain say, let
those who are the most benefited pay
for and support the road

PROPOSED CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT

In accordance with the provisions
of the law, two proposed amendments
to the constitution OF Wisconsin will
be submitted to the qualified electors
of this State for ratification or rejec-
ton at the general election to be held
in November next, one of which pro-
vides for the registration of electors
in incorporated cities and villages and
the other for biennial general cleo
tions.
The proposition providing for the
registration of voters was prompted,
we believe. by decision of the SUI
preme Court denying the province OF
the legislature to abridge the right OF
suffrage guaranteed by the constitu'
ton by requiring registration. The
ratification of this proposed amend
ment will tend TO throw an additional
safeguard around the ballot-box, the
purity of which should be an object
of the greatest solicitude and care,
and the advantages to be gained
thereby will more than compensate for
the slight inconvenience of registra-
ton.
The idea of biennial general cleo.
tions was doubtless suggested by that
of biennial sessions of the legislature
and we think is a wise proposition.
As national, State, legislative and
county officers are hereafter to De
elected for a term Of two or more
wears, biennial elections will be an
Improvement upon the present meth
odd. Under the proposed amendment,
county, legislative and State officers,
congressman and Presidential Eiec'
tors could be voted for upon the same
ticket and thus the actual expense OF
campaigns and elections reduced al
least one-half.

BIENNIAL. LEGISLATIVE SESSIONS

Under the amendment to the con-
stitution of this State ratified by the
people at the last general election,
regular sessions of the Legislature will
hereafter be held biennially only, the
first session under the new dispense
ton to be held in 1888, commencing
on the second day in January, at noon.
Senators are TO be elected for four
years instead of for two years as here
tofore, and Members of the Assembly
for two years instead of for but one
wear. We are firm in the belief that
the change from annual to biennial
sessions of the Senate and Assembly
is in the line of progression, and that
by the election of proper persons to
represent them in the legislature the
people will greatly reduce the immense
cost of making their laws, besides Sc
curing for the statutes greater stabili-
ty and consequently greater famil-
ldTlly. Iuo LOO LIcuuCut Oppoi euhiOy
heretofore afforded for change has
prompted the enactment and amend
ment of many laws wholly unnecessary
that would have been far less likely to
successfully run the gauntlet of a BIZ
ennial session. Among the worst
curses that affiict the people is an ex-
cess of superfuous legislation which
it appears to us that biennial sessions
will tend TO decrease. The worse than
useless, class. and vicious legislation
constantly being added to our cumber-
some statutes can be checked only by
the election to the legislature of those
who stand committed to the interests
of the people-of those who will adj
vocate, support and defend the rights
of the many as against privileges for
the few

FeilOw TeacherSi-H is with pleas
ure that present this topic for your
discussion, because it seems to me
that this branch is more neglected in
our country schools. than other study
which can show so many just claims
to Importance and usefulness.
Any study that is so well adapted to
fit pupils for after life as book-keep-
ing is, should have prominent place
in our schools. OF what use is it to
take up the time of a pupil in work
that will be of no use to him in after
life! Take for instance the young
man who has studied Latin and Greek,
and after finishing his education, he
enters store or some other place of
business, will his languages be of any
service to hint | fancy not, Sup
pose that he ventures quotation, he is
only laughed at for airing his knowl-
edge; and if he has acquired this i1Se-
less knowledge by the neglect of more
practical education, his employer will
soon let him know of 1t, to his disad-
vantage
AS bookkeeping is the faithful and
systematic record of business transac.
tions, it follows that any person should
be able to keep written statement,
or record of his business. How many
quarrels and lawsuits arise, on ac-
count OF the absence OF any record of
transactions, which was trusted to the
memory, and IL has proved treacher-
Gus.
Then again, great many of our
school houses are crowded, or else are
not properly seated. This gives very
poor chance for instruction in writ

the same time the pupil is learning
the principles of the science.
Most of the pupils who attend our
country schools especially, are limited
to about four months schooling in
each year, and cannot attend regular
ly even that length of time, In view
of these facts, does 1t not appear to
