The disastrous termination of several
Arctic expeditions does not appear TO de-
ter men from wishing TO expose them
selves TO tine well-known dangers OF the
Polar regions in order to enjoy the adyen-
lures there offered or to discover the
secrets which are there locked in eternal
ice and snow. The cable has already an
nOunced that four Arctic expeditions
viii leave Germany next winter or spring,
and it is probable that other similar expe-
dltions will leave other countries.
1t does seem that enough has been
learned about Arctic exploration and the
dangers attending it to convince scien-
titic men, and adventures as well, that
future explorations, If they are to be ex-
pected TO achieve any very great degree
Of success, must be conducted very differ
emily from those Of the past.
Many plans have been proposed for
reaching the North Pole and for thor
oughly exploring the Arctic regions. 1t
seems to be conceded that no single party
can reasonably expect to be successful.
To accomplish these objects an elaborate
campaign must be planned with view
to the overcoming of such enemies or OBJ
staeles as distance, ice, snow, water,
cold, hunger, etc. Not only must science
and invention and large means be at the
disposal of the commander in such cam
paign, but he should be aided by suffi-
cient number-prObably not less than
2OO-of men qualified, physically and
mentally as well as by special training,
for the service. His outfit of ships, boats,
equipments and material should be more
elaborate and complete than has been that
of any previous expedition, and provision
should be made for very frequent, if not
constant, communication between the COM
mander and every detached portion Of his
command, as we'll as with the base of sup
plies outside the region of perpetual ice.
1t may take millions to prosecute such
campaign and bring it to a successful
termination. 1t is believed that the OBJ
stacles in the way of reaching the pole it.
self are not absolutely insurmountable.
The whole civilized world would take an
intense interest in such an expedition as
is here suggested, but the sending of small
parties, poorly equipped and not supplied
with proper means of communication
and relief, will be looked upon as invita-
tiOns TO fresh disasters.

Neal Fields Easily Earned Fee.

From the COHrier-,i0NrndJ.
Neal Fields, you viii remember, was in the
Chancery Court Clerks Office with Steve
Chipley. Constant communication with mem
beers OF the bar gave him good idea Of law
aud he resolved to go West and adopt the
practice. He arrived at Albuquerque one
night, and next day was engaged in a murder
case, which at that time was attracting at
tention all over the Territory.
Among the many ranchmen was a burly old
fellow named Carter, who STYLED hmself
"king," and was a terror for miles around
Carter had small regard for the property
Of other people, ana made a specially Of
claiming all the cattle that stfayed upon his
pastures. Other ranchman were afraid to
demonstrate with him personally, and were
forced 10 resort TO the courts. A Kentucky
attorney named Ilagan was in Carriers EN-
plOy, and was usually successful
A fatal shooting ARRAY occurred on the
streets OF Albuquerque one night. Not long
afterward Carter was lodged in tail and
charged with murder. He had killed fellow
ranchman for iriillng insult, ant the specta-
tors loudly proclaimed that il WAS in cold
blood. That night there were rumors of mob
vengeance, and the prison was placed under
heavy guard.

visit Carter. At FIRST he heeitated: he had

Collector Hedden and the Rice
Question.

| 1t seems that the broken rice question
is not yet finally setted. A dispatch which
we publish this morning indicates that
the newly-appointed Collector at New
York, Mr.. Hedden, has determined to
give the rice importers a chance to show
! that broken rice is, in fact, graduated
rice, and as such, is required to pay a
duty OF only 20 per cent. ad valorem.
Ever since the enactment Of the present
tariff law there has been trouble about
the duty to be paid on broken rice. The
beer brewers, who exert a very powerful
influence in commercial and political
circles, have insisted that broken rice
should be olassed as graduated rice. The
rice planters have shown that broken rice
and graduated rice are two very differ
ent articles of commerce, and that a
fair construction of the law requires
broken rice to pay a duty Of PIC. per
pound-the duty that whole rice is re-
quired to pay.
A moments consideration will show
that any other construction OF the law
would be damaging 10 the rice planters.
If broken rice should be admitted at the
30 per cent. adj valorem duty the market
for whole rice would be greatly injured
Broken rice would be imported in i'm
mense quantities, and would be mixed
with whole rice. The mixture would be
almost as acceptable to a large GLASS of
consumers as the best quality OF rice, and
it could be put on the market at much
less price than the best rice. The broken
rice would also be sold TO consumers IN
mixed at price that would greatly in
terfere with the sale of whole rice.
The brewers purchase the broken rice
for brewing purposes. 1t is very natural
that they should want to get it as cheaply
as possible. The interests of the rice
planters are Of little consequence to them.
The planters have the law on their side,
and the brewers have the political influ-
ence. That is about the way the matter
has stood all along.
A month or more ago the entire ques-
ton was heard by Assistant Secretary OF
the Treasury, Mr.. Fairchild. His decision
practically left the final settlement OF the
question with Mr.. McMullen, the APP
praiser Of The New York custom house.
Mr.. McMullen held that broken rice was
not granulated rice, and hence must pay
duty Of 2Ac. per pound.
Is the new Collector about to reverse
the decision of the appraiser? The in
duenQe 81 of the rice planters is very
small in New York. How great
the influence Of the brewers in that
city is it is not difficult to
guess. 1t would be unjust, of course, to
suggest that Collector Hedden would at
tempt to nullify the letter or the spirit of
the tariff law, but it must be admitted
that it looks as if he had yielded to power
full influences in consenting to reopen
this broken rice question.

The Fatal Mint Julep.
From the Boston Record.

The Boston man WAS driving along a forest
road in Alabama, when he came to a coy
log cabin by the wayside. IN whose door 1t a
plump and hearty darkey. The pine trees
behind which the sun was sinking. framed in
the little plot that the negro cultivated, and
around the cabin there was growing, in the
loveliest profusion, quantity of mint. The
Boston man was in the habit of carving re-
freshments with him, and the sight OF the
nOdding paradise of mint about the cottage
suggested beautiful thoughts to him. He
stopped, alighted, and joined the darkey on
the doorstep.
would you like to take drink with me?"
said the Boston man.
Boss, don kyah eff dew" said the darkev.
The Boston man went to HIS buggy and
brought two bottles. There was brandy in
one and rum In the other, and there was some
sugar in a little box.
whats your name, my manP Julius?
Well julius, why don't you make mint
julepg" SAID the white man.
"Wot mought dat be, boss?" asked the negro
"Pick me some nice, tender sprlgs of that
mint and bring me some cold water and III
show YOU"
The negro brought about half a bushel of
beautiful mint and a bucket of cool water
from his well. The white man mixed two
drinks in two big tin cups, and tenderly in :
terspersed little of the mint in them. Then
the two discussed the beverages, and the
darkey's eyes cleaned. After a while the
Boston man drove on.
Three months afterwards he came back to
the same cabin. He noticed with tender con-
Germ that the mint seemed to have been strip
ped from the darkey's yard as by n tornado,
and the place looked forlorn and gloomy. The
pine trees sighed mOurnfully as he drove up.
In the door sat negro, but not his negro. 1t
was detected and tattered old man who
answered the call.
"Ah! where is my friend julius, who lived
IN this cabin three months ago2"
"PO' Julius am gone, san" said the old
negro.
"What. not dead?"
Eyes, sab"
what was the matter with him?v
"Oh, OATS the sorrowful part Of it, sab.

Preparing for a Reform of the Tariff.

Preparing for Reform of the Tariff.
The circular letter of the Secretary of
the Treasury relative to the substitution
of specific for ad valOrem duties, which
was published several days ago, and
which is being sent to leading importers
and representatives of various industries
throughout the country, indicates pretty
clearly that the administration expects
that the tariff issue will occupy large
part Of the attention of Congress next
winter. The Secretary of the Treasury
is, therefore, collecting information
which, at the proper time, he will submit
to Congress.
He had not been long at the head of the
Treasury Department when he discovered
that the government was being defrauded
out OF many millions Of dollars annually.
The system OF undertaking goods had
become so perfect that those who were
chiefly concerned in it felt secure against
detection. Some were detected, however,
andWithin the last month a millionaire
rmpeBtaf has been sent to prison for
term of years.
ButlSbcretary Manning in sending out
his circular has something more in view
I than getting expressions OF opinion rela-
the, TO the advisability of abollshing the
systemOf ad valorem duties and substi-
I tuting for it the specific system. He
clearly has in mind the increasing de-
maud for a reduction of the tariff, and he
expects that the replies to his circular
? leteertwill enable him to furnish Congress-
with Information relative to the tariff.
\ much limOre valuable and more to the
point, than that which was furnished by
the tariff commission. 1t will probably
not be denied that the results of the work
| Of that commission were not very use
full, although the government paid very
extrayagant price Tor them. The COM
mission presented a great mass of facts
and opinions, which few took the trouble
| TO examine, and those who did examine
/ them were so completely at a loss to under
stand them that they asked no one to fol-
/ low their example.
/ AS the information which the Secretary
! Of the Treasury is collecting VIII be con-
! fined TO replies to a few questions that
! cover the whole subject under cOnsidera-
4 ton, and as il viii be TO the point and
will be furnished by those who are quail
fed to furnish facts or express opinions.
it is probable that it will afford Congress
a starting point in the work Of reforming
the tariff.
II Is probable that if the work Of re.
forming the tariff is once begun IL will
not be stopped as soon as one abuse has
been corrected. The demand that under
valuations shall not be permitted is not
greater than that the duties shall be re.
/ duced.
4 Secretary Manning could not have
adopted better mode and a better time
than he has for calling attention 20 the
necessity Of reforming the tariff. Import
ers who have suffered on account Of the
lately discovered frauds are willing Ia
talk freely, and the country is forced Ia
recognize that there is need for reform
where there is 80 much crookeduess and
complaint.
