Look to the Next Legislature.

Look to the Next Legislature.
What happened in the last legisla-
ture two years ago, may be repeated in
the next. In the last legislature there
was a private organization to defeat
every measure Of law having for its OBJ
ject any interference with the liquor
traffic. This fact came out plainly in
the anti-prohibition convention, Ga new
name taken by the liquor dealers asso-
ciation) which assembled in State con-
vention at Madison few weeks ago,
numbering, it was reported, two hundred
members. A member Of this conven-
ton, who was member of the State
legislature from Dodge county two
years ago, stated that the liquor dealers
had paid attendants on the legislature
during the session, whose business was
to organize opposition to vote against
any enactments intended to interfere
with the liquor business. He further
stated that these lobbyists succeeded in
securing So members Of the legislature
to pledge their influence to defeat all
legislation interfering with the liquor
trade, and that they were successful in
their object. Having accomplished
their purpose in the last legislature, the
same may be tried again in the next.
If the statement Of the Hon. gentleman
from Dodge county be true; Che is a
sound Democrat and an earnest friend
of the saloon interest) then it would
seem an intelligent people cannot be
satisfied to have the State legislature
controlled by the liquor interest.

The Free Trade Period of 1886
to 1861 Contrasted with the
Protective Tariff Period
from 1861 to 1886.

EXTRACTS from Hon. VIM. McIkinley's speech at
Atlanta, Ga.)
In 1860 we had I63, 900, 900 acres of
improved land, while in 1880 we had
287, 100000, an increase of Is per
cent In 1860 our farms were val
ued at $500, 900, 900. In 1880 the
value had leaped to $40, Io7, 900, 900,
an increase of over 800 per cent.
1860 we raised I73,ooo,ooo bushels
of wheat; in 1880, 4o8,ooo,ooo. In
1860 We raised $4,000 bushels
of corn; in 1880, I,7I7,ooo 900 bush
els. In 1860 we produced 5000, 900
bales OF cotton; in 1880, 7,ooo,ooo
bales, an increase of 40 per cent.
In 1860 we manufactured cotton
| goods to the value of SII5,68I,774;
in 1880 the value reached $2II ,ooo,-
900, an increase of upward Of 50 per
cent. In 1860 we manufactured of
WOODEN goods $6I, 900; in 1886,
267,ooo,ooo, an increase Of 333 per
cent. In 1860 we produced o,ooo,-
900 pounds of wool; in 1880, $780,
100000 pounds, an increase of near
ly 800 per cent. In 1860 we mined
I5,ooo,oo tons Of coal, in 1880, TO-
900, 900 tons. an increase of over 400
per cent. In 1860 we made o87,o
tons of pig iron; in 1886, 3,835,ooo
tons. In 1860 we manufactured
235,ooo tons of railroad iron, and in
1880, 100000 tons. In 1860 our
aggregate of National wealth was
| $I6,I5e,ooo, 900; in 1880 it was $43,-
900, 900, 900. From I848 to 1860,
during the low tariff period, there
was but single year in which we
exported in excess of what we i'm
|ported. The balance of trade during
the twelve Of the thirteen years was
against us. Our people were drained
of their money to pay for foreign
purchases. We sent abroad over
and above our sales, $500, 2I6, 161.
This vast sum was drawn from the
United States, from its business,
from the channels of trade, which
would have been better employed in
productive enterprises and thus sup
piled our wants for which we were
compelled to go abroad. During the
last thirteen years, under a protec-
tive tariff, there was but one year
that the balance of trade was against
US. For twelve years we sold to our
foreign customers in excess Of what
we bought from them, the sum of
SI,oI2,o5o,755. Your contrast makes
an interesting exhibit of the work un-
der the two systems. You need not
be told that the government and the
people are most prosperous whose
balance of trade is in their favor.
The government is like the citizen.
indeed it is but an aggregation of
citizens, and when the citizen buys
more than he sells he is soon con
scious that his years business has not
been a success. Our wealth in
creases $751;, 100000 every year,
while the increase of France is $375.-
100000, Great Britain, s3a5,ooo,ooo,
and Germany 100000, 900. The
total carrying capacity Of all the yes
sells entered and cleared from Amer

the Landlord In Cuba.

The proprietario is as hard upon his

This landlord lives his little s~pendthrst

Wound Tn the Wood business. 4.

When ] began steamboating, along
back in 1915, the wood boat business was
n big feature Of river traffic. At that
time there were no less than seventy-iiv
boats running that carried nothing but
cordwood, and their owners, with few
exceptions, became opulent. All of the
cordwood then came from along the
banks Of the Illinois, upper and lower
Mississippi river, and it required a small
army OF men TO handle the business.
For many years the receipts did not fall
below 60, 900 to 10000 cords annually.
When coal came into general use il cur.
tailed the traffic, and the fact that the
river country was denuded of wood far
back from the river wound up the wood
business, SO that now there are not moro
than three or four boats engaged in the
traflic.-Globe Democrat Interview.
