ton they want abolished is the internal
They assert that it is necessary to keep
up the tariff of 1864, which was devised
chiefly for the benefit of certain manufac-
turing firms in the United States by
wrenching billion of dollars out of the
pockets of American consumers. Taxa
ton for the benefit Of a few individuals is
not needed by the Government, certainly.

GratuitOus BenevOlence.

No advance in duty was asked for by
the manufacturers; none is needed for
their protection, for they are amply able
to meet foreign competition, in spite of
the duties levied on their machinery, and
none is required for revenue. The propo-
sition of Mr.. Kelley's committee is simply
a gratuitOus piece of prOtectiOnist impu-
dence or ineXplicable fOOlishness.

Quite Natural.

The interests which furnished the funds
to insure a Republican majority in the
Forty-seventh Congress and to purchase
the Presidency for General Garfield, are
now at the capitol in the shape of a strong
lobby. They are accused by good Repub-
lican editors of attempting to bully Con-
gress. We suppose they want what was
promised them for their money in 1880.
And that is not very unnatural.

ed the scientific trial in preference to

On Euclid avenue, CIeveland's show

ing s., 200 a year, illuminate a space for
merly lit by seventy-five gas lamps cost
ing $1,000. As late as 1877 these lamps
cost s., 800, and it is significant of the ra-
pidity with which cheap light has come
that Cleveland now pays $4,000 for light
ing its streets against $4,000 in 1877,
although the population has risen $4,000
and the area increased fifteen square
miles. Cleveland offers a fair instance of
the cheapness at which the Brush light
can be furnished, the city paying fOrty-five
cents per night. Albany pays fifty, Balti-
more and New York seventy, Boston and
Buffalo sixty-fiVe.

The philosophy of Gambetta's political
creed is explained in the subjOined para
graph in his great speech delivered in the
Chambers February, 1915:
Il deny the absolute in all things, so
you may well imagine that / will not adj
nit il in politics. / am of a school that
believes only i'm relation, analysis and
observation; the examination of facts, the
comparison and combination of ideas; a
school that takes into account mediums,
races. tendencies, prejudices and antago-
nisms. Politics are not, nor can they be,
always the same.'

Jute Culture.

Col. COckren, before the Cotton Planters
Association at Little Rock last fall, made
the following reference to jute cultivation
i'm the South:
lin regard to jute, there is no longer
any doubt that it can be grown most
prOfitably i'm many parts of the South, and
especially in Louisiana; and what is
equally important is the fact that a COM
pany is now started in New Orleans for
the manipulation of the fibre into a manu-
featuring condition which has heretofore
been the great stumbling block in its pro-
ductiCn by planters.
when we think of six million bales of
our cotton, wrapped by fOrty-eght million
yards of foreign jute, costing nearly five
million dollars, all of which we could
keep at home by taking hold of this indus
try. il should urge us to examine into the
profits of jute culture, which, 1 understand,
far exceeds those of cotton, the particu-
lars concerning which can easily be had
by addressing Hon. W. II. Harris, State
Commissioner of Agriculture for Louisi-
ana. at Baton Rouge"

There is some misapprehensiOn in re-
gard to the donation of half a million dol
lars Tor the cotton centennial. Mr.. More
head says the National Cotton Planters
Association does not ask or require dol
lar for its use, or the use Of any of its Off
GERS, from the exposition fund. 1t has
ample means and resources Of its own for
all ordinary purposes. No Organiza-
ton in the United States can
bring such influences as theirs to
bear upon the legislative assemblies
Of the various cotton States and cities for
inducing complete exhibits by States and
counties and securing money contribu-
tons at the same time because of the now
acknowledged necessity Of more intimate
relations between planners and manufac-
turers of cotton and agricultural imple-
ments and machinery. They will COM
mand the support and interested co-opera-
tion Of these classes throughout the world.

The San Francisco Chronicle makes a
strong plea for the abolition of the tariff
on bituminous coal. Large quantities are
brought into San Francisco as ballast or
in lieu of ballast by vessels in the grain
export trade. The native supply of coal
in California and Oregon is scanty and in
adequate. Washington Territory supplies
the coast with what American coal it
uses, but is unequal to the demand. Great
Britain and Australia now bring to Cali
fOrnia and Oregon $50, 900 tons of bitumin-
Gus coal annually. which ismore than one
half of the total imports of coal into the
United States. The freight charges alone
make coal an expensive necessity for the
people of the Pacific States. The present
duty on bituminOus coal is seventy-ive
cents a ton. The commission propose a
reduction to fifty cents a ton.

4 protection organ, urging a customs
union with Hawaii, says the joint resOlu-
ton proposing such will have against it
all the influence which the Louisiana
sugar interest can command. Why
shouldn't the Louisiana sugar interest
oppose it, Were the country
under a revenue tariff it would
be wrong for the planters to clamOr for pro-
lection. But since protection is the object
ofthe tariff, why should Louisiana not have
as much of it as she can get? If Hawaii
was as skilled in manufactures as Penn
syIvania, and could lay them down cheaper
in san Francisco, the protection organ
would not be so unanimous for a customs
union. Not by a large majority.

Professor Sumner. of Yale, recently lee
tured in Chicago on free trade. In an in
terview he said: - Free trade will be pos
sible when we get the attention of the peO-
pie, and voters are educated up to the
issue. No doubt manufacturers are
strongly bound by common interests,
while free traders are consumers who
have no combination for defense. Politi-
cally, the manufacturers can approach
the Congressman representing their dis
trict. These men subscribe literally to
campaign expenses, and when the time
comes their prOteges know how to vote.
Here is a hard kind of opposition to CON-
bat. But as soon as the people under
stand the issue intelligently the prOtec-
ton on industries must go down. 1 have
always maintained that the policy of the
free trader was to go to the victims of pro-
lection. 1t is hard to argue with men
against their personal interests. The
slave-Owners are better off now, though
previous TO the war they would not have
listened to arguments against their inter-
ests. Free traders should therefore APP
proach farmers and consumers, whose in
terests are removed from protection, and
argue intelligently with Them"

Many additional particulars might

the trade OF all the upper part Of
