REVENUE, TAXATION AND PER.
PLEXITY

The high tariff jlnGoea are in a
quandary. The high taxation they
have instituted is rising up like the
kind Of demon that, when raised, the
enChanter cannot lay sgain. A crisis
is arising that they cannot meet, and
only tariff reformers can tell how IL
should be met. At the beginning Of
the year $l94, 100000 Of per cents
were drawing interest, now only ST.
OOo,0O0, snd by June next every bond
OF them will have been called in.
There are no other bonds that can be
called in for some years, and the pre-.
MUM upon those Is too high TO make
II p,ssib'e to buy them in the open
market. The revenue that has been
paying off bonds will therefore roll In
millions to the Treasury, where there
, is no power to expend II. The Secre-
tary Of the Treasury's last report
showed that, st the end OF last year,
the debt bad In ten months
been reduced 1854, S47,9i7; at that
rate next year will bring a surplus OF
$l07, 100000, for which there are no
appropriations and without them the
money cannot be expended, To keep
accumu atirg ouch a surplus is impos-
sible; 10 stop the accumulation the
tariff must be reduced, and there is
where The high tariff jiogoes are at
their wits end. 10 allow the money
to lie id'e would DO a COZ traction Of
100000 a month instead Of the ex-
pansion Of slO0OQOOO month from
the bond calls. Can the business Of

depression, bear ouch a strain Con-
gress would not provide for what is

A Beautiful and AccOmp Iished Girl
In Prison for FOFkerY.

BURLINGTON, W., November H.
The trial OF Miss Jennie Sexton, who
was arrested for forging orders on the
Burlington Savings Bank in the name
OF Millionaire John L. Mason, was
postponed today to allow her counsel
time to prepare his case. In default
OF bail she was committed to Jail.
Mr.. Mason and the prisoner had an
interview today, in which che asked
him to stand by her, but he refused to
do 30. Miss Sexton now charges that
she was betrayed by Mason when
she was only - years Of age; that she
has continued to meet him by ap.
pointment up to the present time !;
that che has letters from him making
appointments and showing their rela.
tions to each other. Msson insists that
1t is a case of blackmail. Mason is a
director OF the Central Vermont rail
rosd, a stakeholder In the Burlington
Bank, and is one OF the most promi-
nent men in the county. Miss Sexton
is accomplishtd and beautiful.

city retained lis old exiortione. At
last, however, New Orleans hes be.
Gene aroused. The coal has been
put on the teirapin's back, and the
creature moves. In other wordP,
high charges have made such inIolds
upon its commerce that that city at
length recognizes The necessity Of
change. The New Orleans Times de-
clsTes thai the spirit Of reform hiss
found entrance, and that the healthy
growth OF other cities has aroused the
people TO vigorous action. I'VE see

has suffered every infliction that New
Orleans has met with, almost doubling
her population in the last few years
and opening new career OF prosperity
for herself; and 20 OF Nashville, Au-
gusta, Dallfs ard score of others"
The Times goes on to say: This
city has moi advanced relatively as
rapidly IS most Of her neigbboIe, be-
cause che hfa clung to old lido s, TO old
methods and systems not suited to the
times; because she has never shown a
proper spirit in r6forming abuses and

II is doubtful whether ever greater
commercial mistake was made than
that Of the dairymen's war upon oleo-
margarine, The discussion in Con-
gTess put that article on q far higher
pinnacle than it had previously at
tanned The testimony of experts
showed the material to be a whole
some food, and the prejudice against
IL YVES In great measure done away.
Sold rs butter II is fraud, but it is
obtaining standing that makes such
tricks no lOugtr necessary. Brddslreefs
states that Washington accounts ex-
prets the expectation that the tax
upon 1t will reach from 81 ,00O,C to
$l,600,000 annual revenue, and adds:
"The very enactment OF the bill was,
indeed, but recognition Of the fact
that the new food product had come
TO stay" Already the Boston papers
are publishing market reports giving
the comparative prices OF oleomaTga-
rine and butter. In these reports the
price OF the best butter is quoted at
"a to 20 cents, while the best cleo can
be had for II cents. The long and the
shot Of the matter lie, that the people
are discovering that good oltomarga-
Iine lie better than bad butter, and the
agitation against II last year extended
that conviction, and now tho lately
desplsed oleomargarine has become q
respectable article Of commerce.

Randall and Carlisle.

WASHINGTON, November 17.-There
is rumor that, with Morrison out of
the way, Mr.. Randall aud Mr.. Carlisle
may be able to agree ON tariff bill in
the Fittieth Congress. OF course this
looks little absurd, but, after all, it
Is not improbable. Carlisle and Ran
dali are both men of ability, who are
able to rise above mere personal
views, and yield more or less OF their
own desires for the sake Of party har-
mony and party success Randall is
not willing to yield his vital principles
OF adjustment Of the necessary tariff
30 as to protect the industries that
most need protection, but Carlisle
is quite willing to take whatever can
be had by way Of compromise, es-
peclally since he has looked over the
iield and seen the renewed evidence
OF growth Of protection ideas in the
South.

branch OF Congress will be less, the
