Concerning Free Potatoes.


One Of the features of the Mills bill which is
exciting great dissatisfaction among the farm
of the States ac iacens to Canada is that it
puts potatoes on the free list.
Under the tariff, "a it exists, u duty of 10
cents per bushel of sixty pounds ia levied on i'm
ported potatoes. The Mills bill makes the
chance In a manner evidently designed to escape
notice. Potatoes are not mentioned in it by
NAME but it omits the provision relating to
shem in the tariff bill of 1888 and simply puts
on the free list bulbs and bubous roots, not
medicinal" Potatoes dubious roots not
medicinal. AT the Same time a good round pro-
tective duty is maintained on the Caroinian and
Georgia farmers peanuts.
1t is noteworthy that in copies of the Mills
distribution in the State OF New York and
doubtless in other Northern States, this clause
concerning dubious roots not medicinal" in the
free list, is carefully omitted and consequently
the Democratic papers have been stoutly deny.
ing the charge in regard TO free potatoes.
The effect of such provision would be felt
even by farmers in this State as it would in
vite heavy importations and tend to lower the
price throughout the country, potatoes being
one of the great crops Of Canada. Potatoes are
also imported from Europe, and potatoes from
Holland were sold In this city during the past
winter They are brought over as ballast fire.

The speech Of Mr.. Ed Gould in the opera

Mr.. Gould, who speaks for the labo. oreauiza-

idol, and they propose to elect q Legislature
that will send him to the United States Senate
IN place OF Dan Voorhees,. Afterwsrd they in

Gould assured his auditors that the Democratic
candidates for the Legislature in this district
are pledged to this programme, and that a vote

There is also large increase of revenue. But
more important and more interesting result is
great Improvement IN the public morals. The
low eroeeeries are closed. There is universal
testimony that police business is vastly &c
creased in the smaller towns and villages, and
with it drinking and drunkenness. This effect
Is not so apparent in the larger cities, but this

The News from Maine.

Great interest was expressed concerning the
returns from Maine last night, both by Repub-
leans and Dem ocrats, although the latter bad
their hopes held within bounds by recalling the
poor showing they made in Vermont week ago.
The Republicans were not disturbed. nor did
they count upon al unusual list Of gains. No
predictions made yesterday or early in the
evening touched the Blaine mark OF four years
ago. 1t was felt by the Republicans that if
moderate gains over the vote Of 1856
were secured they would be sufficient
to indicate the forthcoming victory for their
party throughout the country. But last night
everybody wanted to be kept advised as TO the
run of the returns. and as early az 7:30 o'clock
