That NNnnd ORDINANCE.

The wood ordinance recently passed
by the common Council has not only
engendered a good deal of dissatis-
faction, but is evidently proving
injurious to our city. There undoubt-
eddy are many laws necessary in the
large cities which the wants of a
small city do not demand, and among
them is the one regulating the meas
urement and sale of lirewood. The
larger buyers here regard the passage
of the ordinance as meddlesome
interference with their private bust
ness affairs not warranted by any
public requirement, and the seller
considers the inspectors fee he is
made to pay as an imposition to which
he will not submit as long as there
are other markets for his wood. There
is quite a feeling in the city against
the ordinance, which found express
sion yesterday in the form of the
following petition, quite generally
signed, for its repeal:
To The Honorable, the Common Coun.
ell of the City of River Falls:-
We, the undersigned, voters and
Taxpayers Of the City of River Falls,
most respectfully represent to your
Honorable body that we believe the
enforcement of City Ordinance No.
%, passed Jan. 5, approved Jan. 8 and
published Jan. 7, 1886, regulating the
measurement and sale of firewood,
commonly known as "the wood ordi-
naace,' is proving seriously detri-
mental TO the business interests Of
our city, its eXacti0ns and annoy
ances being such as to turn the wood
/ trade, which has hitherto formed an
| important factor in traffic here, into
other channels, without in any per-
ceptible degree benefiting our people
as individuals.
Believing that the interests of the
city would be best subserved by the
repeal of the ordinance in question,
we most earnestly petition you to
rescind the same at the earliest time
practicable.
The circulation of this petition was
commenced yesterday afternoon, and
this morning about one hundred names
appeared thereon, with more to follow.
The Milwaukee journal, in discus
sing the question of Protection VS..
Revenue. tersely sums up the matter
as follows:
''There is as much difference he
tween a revenue tariff and "a protective
tariff as there is between legitimate
taxation and highway robbery. The
best protective tariff is prOhibitOry
tariff upon the products or mauufac-
lures which this country can produce
or manufacture. The best revenue
tariff is tariff upon products exclu-
sively Of other countries, and for
which there is demand ia this. The
protect )nists favor free trade in aTti-
cles upon which revenue would be
greatest, and favor high tariff upon
articles which can be as cheaply pro-
duced at home as abroad. to the end
that prices may be increased and their
profits multiplied.
a revision of the tariff upon a non.
protective basis would increase the
revenues while decreasing the tax
burden upon the people.
