The Balance of Trade Economists.
A favored theory with the school of
absolute protectionists is that large ex-
ports and small imports give prosperity
to country. Their reasoning is speci-
GUS but calculated to mIslead and capt.
vate multltudes. A country which ex
ports largely of its products aud se-
ceives pay for Its goods has the balance
of trade in its favor while the balance
of trade Is against that country which
imports the products of foreign ma
tiOns. In the former case the excess
of exports over imports Is paid in gold,
which adds TO the volume of money
in the country and enriches it by that
amount; in the latter the excess OF
imports over exports takes gold out OF
the country to balance accounts and
dlminishes the volume TO that extent.
If wealth is money, then surely the
| protectionists have strong argument.
But mere money is not wealth. II
Is only measure of values and a
medium Of exchange, and is worth
only what 1t will purchase. The hoard
ing up of great quantities of gold does
not make u state rich. Texas was nc
better oil under Gov. Roberts, when
the famous leash balance" was
lying in the treasury, than to.
day, with barely enough to pay
current expenses. The sending o
gold out of country does not impov
erish II IL fair equivalent of ware,
and merchandise is received in return
nor does the importation of gold en-
rich state which sends out the wortl
of that gold in the products ofits farm
or factories. The fact is easily sup
ported by statistics that those coun
tries are invariably the most prosper

poor, unprogressive, illiterate and de-
caying.
Nevertheless, say the protectionists,
we must hold to our exclusive tariff,
which, by crippling commerce, and
keeping out foreign goods, enables us
to export more than we import. We
ought 10 get rich, and we are getting
rich, but IL is not because we sell more
than We buy. II 1t were that way,
this country would prove an extraor-
binary exception TO the rule which the
list Of states just quoted shows to pre-

nearly all his life. He is respected by
all who know him. In the year
1851, the year in which Blaine was
married, Mulligan became bookkeeper
for Jacob StanNood, a business man
of 3ufialo, and Mrs. Blaine's brother.
1t was this Jacob StanwoOd that gave
Blaine his start in life by advancing
him the money to buy an interest in
the Kennebec Journal. Blaine and
Mulligan thrown together in this
way, became warm friends. In 1865
MuIligan was clerk for sugar REIN
ing company in which Warren Fisher,
Jr., and Eben Stanwood, another
brother of Mrs. Blaine's were part
ders. Mulligan was held in such high
esteem that Warren Fisher, ST., a
wealthy retired merchant made him
one of his trustees, and he manages
the estate to this day and attends TO
other trusts of like character.

To the Editor of the Gazette;
AS the time draweth nigh for the

few suggestions to that honorable
body. In the first place, an endless
number of committees ought to be APP
pointed. There ought to be committee
to give some attention to Judge Hood
and tell him just when and where to
make his decisions in favor of morality
and in the interest of the "best citi-
zens." Then another COM
mittee to take charge OF
Sheriff Maddox and give him to
few hints about enforcing the law and
selecting jurors. The latter should al
ways be selected from the "best citi-
zens, as they pay all the taxes and are
entitled To all the fees.
Then a committee on newspapers
should be appointed; for, as q general
rule, newspaper men do not know how
TO conduct public journal and ought
to be taught by law and order com.
mittee. In fact, committees are good
things and cost nothing; besides, they
