What Is Thought Of Blaine's Scheme.

In commenting on Blaine's new
scheme for distributing the whisky
tax, the Chicago Times says: In real
ity it is another device of protection
ism striving to prevent any reduction
or modification of the damnable
tariff exactions. Nothing lets 60 its
grip on the throat of victim so m
willingly as licensed robbery.
A Washington correspondent tele-
graphs: Judge Lowrey of Fort
Wayne, who has been taking an act
i've part In Carlisle's canvass, said
Blaine's proposition was intolerable,
IT was the very quintessence of Fed
eralism and Capitalization. There
would soon cease to be local self
government If the states were to
abolish their own taxation and look
TO the general government for their
revenues. III the revenues were too
large, the only thing to do was to re-
duce taxation"
A prominent treasury official said
of the plan: 1T is the last resource
of the high tariff men to avoid the
necessity of reducing taxes. If it is
immoral to abolish the tax on whisky.
then let the government reduce the
taxes on some other things"
Judge Murphy was also opposed to
the plan, partly because of its cen
tralizing tendency, and partly be-
cause of the excuse it offered for
keeping up the tariff. Blaine's prop
osition was the original Pennsyl-
vania proposition with only a little
different form.
Other Democrats spoken to express
ed opposition to this new device in
favor of protection and centralization.
Judge Buckner of Missouri, thinks
it is worth while to undertake to de-
wise some way to dispose of the sur
plus revenue. So long as there is a
public debt it should be applied to
the payment of that debt. He re-
CARDS the plan suggested by Mr..
Blaine as only little more objectional
than that proposed by Wharton Bar
ker. 1t would continue in existence
an army OF gaugers and other inter
nal revenue officers, of whom the
southern states complain because OF
their interference in the elections.
Judge Buckner thinks it would he
better to take the tax off the manu-.
facture of whisky and put it on the
consumption of that article by In
creasing it on license. This would
require comparatively few officers fol
collecting the revenue.

The Sunday law is inforced after a
peculiar fashion in Walla Walla.
Seven of the twenty-six saloons of
that city openly violate the law and
every Monday they go before the
local court and pay the penalty, with
costs, making $3.50 each. This
money goes into the territorial school
fund.

Sheriff, the Prussian.
L. III

Another assisted emigrant has
reached this country in the person of a
beefy, leather-headed prize fighter named
William Sheriff, alias 1.-The Prussian. y
Mr.. Arthur Chambers has him in charge
and is exhibiting him in his Philadelphia
saloon. Mr.. Sheriff is an ugly looking
bull dog. He weighs 100 pounds. but he
will fight at ten stone. Mr.. Chambers
assures the world that his imported Sing.
ger can be matched to fight ANYBODY for
from $1,000 to $4,000, within six
weeks after articles are signed. Mr..
Chambers is particularly anxious to
get up mauling match with Mr..
Mitchell, of England, who is now soiourn-
ing in this country. ''That sport.'' saws
Mr.. Chambers, "challenged Sheriff Ia
fight, and then left England for this aour5
try before Sheriff could get at him. sThe
Prussian'felt that he wac wropged, and has
come across to have a go at Mitchell ON
this side if we can get them close enough
together on the sod without newspaper
talk" Mr.. Sheriff is the kind of emigrant
that we don't care about welcoming "a
this country. 1t is to be hoped thar he
will fall into the haads of a real Sheriff
before many days. He seems to passess
qualities which would adorn and beautify
a workhOuse,
