FARMERS ON THE TARIFF.
Effect Of Free Trade Upon Wool
and Gram.

The INTER OCEAN met and cOnversed |
with two well.informcd farmers recently
on the tariff questionable. James II.
Matthews of Lnrimore and Col. y. p.
Merrick OF this county. Col. Merrick
was Oh his way back from New York,
and we asked him what the people of
that state thought OF Cleveland's mes
sage.
THAT message" replied Col. Mcrrick,
twill give New York to the Republicans.
1t IS claimed that the farmers will be
benefited by free trade. Well. that doc.
trine is not accepted BY the New YORK
farmers. The nearer this country comes
to tariff for revenue only the worse off
the New York farmers become. They
never .aw such prosperity as they en-
joyed during the days Of high protec.
ton. I am an old New York farmer
myself. I can remember the effect Of
removing the tariff from barley in 1857.
Barley was worth g. per bushsl. and the
farmers were making money. The tariff
was removed and the price dropped ut
once to 81 25 and continued to 60 down.
This was caused by the great flood Of
Canadian barley which came over the
line when the duty was removed. Not
withstandlng the increased demand and
the many new uses Cor barley in this
country since then, the price has never
reached u really profitable point for the
farmer, and it never will while tho great
region north Of us is permitted to pour
their products in upon us FREQ Of duty.
II the people OF the United States are
to be deprived OF the benefit Of protcc-
ton, they must get ready for hard times
and a long period Of depression, and the
farmers will suffer with the rest. Many
of them can't see it now, but they vii!
see it then"
Mr.. Matthews spoke Of the evil effects
Of tariff tinkering Us follows: II haye
five or SIX thousand sheep in Colorado.
They cost me, to begin with, $3.50 per
head. The first two years their wool
netted me 33i per cent. Then congress
began to tinker with the tariff. Sheep
declined; wool went down. In 1856
could not have sold my sheep for @l.75
apiece, and At this valuation their wool
did not net ME more than ten per cent
profit. Last year the price Of sheep had
not improved; neither had wool. bave
not yet sold my 1887 clip, because there
is no profit in it. Congress continues to
tinker with the tariff and the sheep in.
terest continues 10 decline. Cleyeland's
message has made the situation worse.
I don't know weere it will end. Where
made money under protective laws
that gave promise Of standing perma-
nently, shall lose money by reason OF
the constant attacks which are being
made upon those laws"

terprising Newburgher has one Of the

world for the raising Of cattle. Itis 25
miles in length and five miles wide The
ranch 10 on the Mouse river, and in the

about 3 o'clock, I chatted with the
Governor. who was in the midst Of
ladies and gentlemen in the parlor and

not be attached that he had partaken
of any intoxicant, and the statement
that he was drunk is cruelty slanderous.

above. Respectfully,

Snow in the Arctic Regions.
lFrederick Schwatka.

When the snow block is cut out from
the trench it is about the size Of large
pillow, but Of course rectangular on
any section. Running knife over
side it will crumble off in sandy mass,
like scraping lump of white sugar,
and not in thin, plastic slice like the
snow in our own zone when treated in
the same way. This soft, plastic char
acter of the snow is, I think, practic-
ally unknown in the Arctic country, it
being there of such firm, solid char
acter that when snow block is held
clear of the ground and struck with
knife it will give forth for some seconds
a clear, metallic, musical ring, nearly
as pronounced as striking suspended
bar of tempered steel. Leaving out
glass and the metals, recall nothing
now more resonant than the compacted
snow of the Arctic.
This snow, too, is as porous as lump
of white sugar, and while it is hardly
right to say that it freely admits the
air, vet when the snow house is closed
by putting up the block of snow which
forms the door there is enough air per-
meating it, porous walls to give ample
ventilation to the people inside. I have
:o1,& l11l r.
house wall on the inside have its flame
visibly DETECTED by the incoming air,
a strong wind blowing on the outside
at the same time. In fact, the solid
snow block, from six inches to foot
in thickness, is seldom considered suf6-
cient protection in the intense cold Of
tho Arctic winter, and all properly con-
structed snow houses have an extra foot
of loose snow thrown over the block
work to keep out the cold. -

CONCERNING PHYSICIANS.
The State Board of Medical Examiners and
the Need of New Legislation to Ex-
tend Its Powers.
Especial to News and Courier.

COLUMBIA, August 2l.-It will be
remembered that at the meeting last
winter. of the State board Of medical
examiners application for a license to
practice medicine in this State was
made by J. R. Robbs, native of this
State, who received his medical educa-
ton in some other State. The applicant
was duly examined and the license re-
fused by the State board of examiners.
Mr.. Robbs then went to the Supreme
Court with an application fol. a writ Of
mandamus. The Judgment of the
Court Chief Justice Simpson dissenting)
was that the mandamus be refused on
the ground that the State board of
medical examiners has NO jurisdiction
in Mr.. Robbs's case, who, being resi-
dent of the Safe and having registered
in the clerks office, needed no license
from the board Of examiners to enable
him to practice his profession.
The substance of the decision of the
Supreme Court in this matter is that
the persons who can be licensed to
practice medicine in this State may be
divided into three classes:
l. A citizen or resident of this State.
2. The graduate of any medical COL
lege in this State, whether citizen or
resident of any other State.
3. Persons coming to the State with
diploma from a college out of this
State.
To obtain license in the first class
the person must b. of good moral char
acter, have attended two full courses of
instruction and graduated at some
medical school of the United States or
some foreign country. and must pro-
duce certificate Of qualification from
some physician Of standing, or from
three citizens, that he has practiced
medicine for ten years.
TO obtain license for persons coming
under the second class, a graduate of a
medical college in this State whether
citizen or not, the applicant must pro-
duce the proof of graduation in
medical college of this State.
The Supreme Court decides that
under the law the State board of medi-
cal examiners has no discretion, except
as to the third class.-that is, persons
coming to this State" with diploma
obtained in another State. The words,
"Coming to this State" are decided not
to refer to citizen of this State who
may have been absent for years and
been educated in some other State and
country.
The decision decidedly curtails the
jurisdiction OF the examining board. A
meeting of this board was called to-day,
but, a quorum not being present, moth
ing could be done. The board is in
need of new legislation, and it is proba-
BILE that at the next session of the
General Assembly they will adopt the
law Of Virginia or Alabama.

Mercie's Equestrian Statue OF Lee.
Baltimore SUM-

RICHMOND, Va, August 20.-Mer-
cie's model Of the. equestrian statue Of
Gen. Robert E. Lee, which is to be
erected here, was unlocked to-day and
placed upon pedestal in the Senate
chamber. The Lee Monument Asso-
citation have accepted the model, and
express themselves as pleased with it
far beyond their expectations. There
is nothing stiff or constrained in either
the horse or rider. The former seems
to have been reined in while at walk,
its neck curved and head turned
slightly to the left. The rider is sitting
erect in the saddle, bare-headed, with
his right shoulder slightly thrown
back, the right hand hanging by his
side, grasping the hat and acknowl-
edging the salutation of the troops
around him. Governor Lee, when
asked his opinion of the model, said it
is very satisfactory; that he had seen
General Lee in that position and look
ing in that way great many times;
that there were some slight modifica-
tons about the rider, to which the at
tention of the artist would be called.
He thought the feet Of the rider might
be closer to the horse, and perhaps the
collar of the coat might be turned down
on the left side of the neck as well as
on the right side. These questions, he
said, should be submitted to the scuip-
tor; that the collar had evidently been
turned up in order to make an irregular
line, and to prevent the coat looking
too precise and trim at the neck.
