WHEAT AND wool brought better prices
before the war than they do now. The tar
iff before the war was low; now it is high.
Wheat and wool are staple agricultural
pro lucts Judging from these indisputable
facts, high tariff is not conduciveto the
interests of the farmers; and the proof that
it is not is strengthened by this other fact
that the price of farm lands is not az high
now as it was when a low tariff WAS in op.

with them. A few years ago for one Sen
ator to have told another he did not believe
him, and that he came into the Senate full
of whisky, disgrecing himself and the Sen
ate, would have provoked other than
wordy re,ort Bat the straDgest thing about
this change is the fact that not only the
proyocation, but the avowed willingness to
afford personal satisfaction for Senatorial H.
sults, now come from the North. Mr.. Blair,
of New Hampshire, announced, short time
ago, after making an insultiog remark to
Mr.. Butler, of South Carolina, his willing
ness to accept challenge from the latter
gentleman, and MIR. Mitchell of Oregon,

TaE REPUBLICAN protectionist5 in their
spesches and letters to Southern farmers
Law great stress upon the alleged benefits
conferred by high tariff upon farmers by
meaus of the home industries it stimulates,
and the home market it thereby affords the
farmers for their products. Well, an ounce
of patent fact is worth ton of unsuhstant
ated assertion Connecticut, in proportion
to its siza is the greatest manufacturing
State 10 the country; and yet the census re
port shows that the profits of the farmers Of
that S ate are decreasing yearly, and that
those farmers, like their fellows 10 Virginia,
are growing poorer as thsy grow older. But
the lesson OF the tariff is even palmer here
in Virginia. Tue protective tariff has been
in operation ever sinca the close ofthe war /;
but the industries of the State that are now
prote tod are not "a numerous nor as profit
able as they ware before that time, and The
farmers thank their stars if at the close of
the year they can make both ends meet !"

Causes of Hay Fever.

Hay fever is now in order; but it is not
hay fever at all in most cases. Intelligent
physicians have found that the varieties
Of this fever are scores, if not hundreds
in number. The pollen of orchard grass
is one of the most common irritants. pro-
ducing violent sneezing and cxpectoration
for hours and days. 1t can be at once
cured by the use of witch hazel extract
snuffed up the nostrils. But these grasses
affect some people So the flying pollen
of willow trees effect others. Jimsen
weed has its victims, and so have many
other common plants. A German scien-
tific journal reports that the pollen of the
palm tree is exceedingly irritating to the
nose, throat, eyes and stomach. It's we'll
for hay fever patients to note that the
stomach can suffer from the same cause
that affects their other organs. The battle
between the vegetable and animal king
doms is unceasing.

Got a Shaking Up.

The train from Bay Ridge which reach
ed here last night about nine O. clock, con-
sisting of some six coaches, all filled TO
the very platforms gave the passengers a
considerable shaking up upon its ar
rival at the depot by humping up against
another locomotive standing upon the
track. There was considerable confusion
and excitement among the women and
children, at the time, which was soon al
layed when the nature of the accident was
made known and it was learned that no
one was hurt. 1t is a remarkable fact,
and one worthy of note and speaks well for
the management of this road, that not a
single accidet has occurred to jar the
nerves of the most sensitive person, dur
ing this whole season, IN which some
IL, 600 persons have been carried to and
from Bay Ridge. Every precaution has
been taken by Superintendent Brown fol
the safety of passengers and to him alone
can he attributed the excellent transpor.
tation facilities that have been afforded
our citizens this season.

Willing TO Pay for the Picking But
Not the Eating.

Daniel Carroll, farmer at Thomas

to get good sum in return from the COM
mission merchant TO whom the melons
were consigned. He was staggered when
he heard from the merchant in that city
who informed him that the receipts from
the sale Of the fruit amounted to $14 less
than the freight bill, and the former was
politely asked to forward that amount
The Georgia man replied that he was viii.
ling to pay for the picking of the melons,
but he positively refused to pay Philadel-
phians for eating them.

Market Pilferers.

Persons attending our market on Satur
day nights, which is usually crowded,
should be on the alert for sneak thieves
who saunter about watching their oppor
tuniiy to snatch anything that may come
in their way. On last Saturday night,
while lady was making some purchases,
one of these sneak thieves snatched and
ran off with her ribbon sash. Another
lady who had made purchase of some
meat laid her basket down near by while
she settled with the butcher, when
one of these sneak thieves took from her
basket the steak that she had the moment
before placed there. The police should
be on the alert for this crafty set who
loiter about our market on Saturday
nightsand make an example of one or two
of them, which no doubt would deter
others in their thieving propensity.
