COUNTY AFFAIRS.

We publish herewith partial exhibit
of the county fin ,nces, as shown in the
clerks office at the end of the fiscal year,
March LIST, 1884. It will be seen that the
Indebtedness of the county, less the
amount of cash and other assets, has been
reduced the past year. When We take
into consideration the value of the county
property as here set forth, it will be seen
that the county is practically out Of debt.
While the figures as here shown may
place the value of the property at high
figures, it is certainly worth as much as
the net indebtedness

81 The bill increasing the boundaries Of
the park ON the south and east has passed
the senate. While we cannot say it will
affect the Clarke's Fork mines, We have
been opposed to the extension of the park
for several reasons. First, it is of no
benefit to the park. Second, it will afford
no protection to game as claimed. Third,
while it may not affect mines already
located, it may take in region in which
mines will be found. We have been
assured that it does not effect the Clarke's
Fork mines. OF that we shall be pleased,
but on general principles, besides the
above, We are opposed to the extension.

II do not believe can afford to take
paper this year. Times are dull and
money scarce" This is a remark we
heard a gentleman make, but on reflec-
ton he thought better Of it. The fact is
you cannot afford to do without tn home
paper. In no way can you invest such
an amount of money and get value re-
eeived. In no way can you put into the
hands of your family such an amount of
interesting and valuable educational mat
ter, than that derived from your home
paper. Withoutit you do not know what
is going on around you. We venture the
assertion that every one who takes his
home paper sees something in it, worth
many times more than the price paid for
it. Tie managers of paper makes it
their business to Gull out for you the
news and information which most di-
rectly interests you. They keep you
posted on the markets, on the new in
dustries spridging up around you; of the
changes and developments taking place
which are suggestive of the progress and
growth Of your immediate neighborhood
and county. They direct you to profita-
bic pursuits, post you where you can get
better prices for produce; where you can
buy cheaper, tell you where you can get
what you want; make your wants known
90 that other people may know. They
are an index of the enterprise and
thrift of your country. Besides all
these things of local importance, the
knowledge of which is essential to you;
they give you the news from all parts of
the world; they give you the thoughts
and expressions of the wisest men of the
age. They are educators in the highest
sense of the word. 1t is not only your
privilege but your duty to become sub
scribers. They are not objects of your
charity. but your best friends, and you
cannot afford to drive them from your
door.

marty would be found to favor annexation.
The average American would not object to
tho acquisition of additional territory,
unless it were coupled with conditions
that would shock his sense of right and
justice.
Slavery still fingers in Cuba, and Of
course. no slave territory can be annexed
to tho United States. There must be
freedom and equality Of rights and privi-
lcges in Cuba before she can become a
state of this union. The reconstruction
of tho local governments of Cuba upon
the basis of impartial suffrage would be
task worthy of tae highest statcsmanship
of the age. Some of our wise men of the
democratic persuasion are sorcly perplcxod
over tho surplus revenue derived from
duties on imports. The purchase of Cuba
would relieve them from all embarrass-
mcnt on this question. II would take all
the surplus that is likely to accumulate in
the noxt ten years to pay for so valuable
n piece of territory.

THERE were few people in the coun-
try some two years ago-among them
Mr.. Perry Belmont-who supposed that
q man by tho name of Shipherd had
induced Mr.. Blaine, while secretary of
state, to assist him in prosecuting a claim
against Peru. Mr.. Belmont had the
misfortune to move an investigation, and
tho whole correspondence, together with
Mr.. Blaine's testimony and that of Mr..
Shipherd, was laid before tho house
committee on foreign affairs. There was
roar of laughter from one end of the
country to the other at Mr.. Belmont's
discontinue, but mp to this day the New
York Times seems to be under the inn
preston that Mr.. Blaine and Mr.. Ship
herd were engaged in some sort of n
scheme to swindlo Peru. If the Times
will send reporter to interview Mr..
Belmont it may get some accurate in
formation on the matter.

While tho Morrison tariff bill was
under consideration in tho house of
representative IL was asserted from day
to day that tho chief opponents Of u re-
duction of the tariff were the manu-
faCturors, who have accumulated great
fortunes under the protective system.
The developments of the last two months
show that it is not the manufacturers,
but the laboring people, who arc most
earnestly protesting against free trade.
Tho democratic statesmen who have
heretofore leaned to the free trade side
have been frightened nearly out Of their
wits by the tremendous uprising of the
reduction of duties.
If the democratic national convention
had been held in April it would have
declared for tariff for revenue only
with substantial unanimity. During the
past three months the party leaders have
heard from the working people oil this
question, and now they will be glad to
compromise on resolution declaring for
ian equalization Of tho burdens Of tax
alton" in very general way. Only q
few hot-heads like Watterson insist upon
positive demand for the reduction of the
tariff. Gen. Butler knows moro about the
feeling of the organized labor unions upon
this question than any other man in the
country, and he is doing all that he can
to prevent the convention from making a
declaration that will convert them all in
ardent supporters of Mr.. Blaine.
The committee on resolutions has q
most diff cult TASK to perform. To frame
resolution that will satisfy the working
pc ,ple without alternating the so-called
"revenue reformers" will exhaust tho
possibilities of the English language.
There is no danger of the free traders
bolting the ticket but they do not caro-
to be made ridiculous in the eyes of all
men, and for this reason they will hold
out for o saving clause to cover their re-
treat from an untenable position.

AN exodus has begun from Marseilles
and Tulon, which can hardly fail to carry
the cholera to other cities. People are
fleeing from the pestilcnce, and some Of
them will, in all probability, take the
germs of the disease with them. Paris is
becoming greatly alarmed and there is a
great rush to the seaside. Should the
pestilence reach Paris it will certainly
put check on the tide of travel that is
now moving across the ocean to Europe.

that $50 delegates voted in favor Of 1t is

OF tho unit rule had not been recon-
