THE Taxed FARMER.
A Few Facts fer Prctectionists to Consider
In the Agricultural Regions.


If any faimer i'm the Northwest
believes in The system that comrels
him to pay protection on everything
and protects him ON nothing. let him
consider thoroughly. the following
pithy article. from the n. Y. World,
and ask himself. in seriousness, is
there any justice in it!
Under this protective tariff the
farmer rises in the morning. puts on
his common flannel shirt. taxed 81
per cent; his coat, taxed SIS per cent;
shoes, taxed IS per cent; hat. taxed
So per cent; takes the water from
u bucket taxed IS per cent; and
washes his face in tin bowl taxed
SIS per cent; dries it with a cheap
cotton towel taxed As per cent. He
sits down to his humble meal and eats
from plate taxed so per cent; with
knife and fork taxed IS per cent;
drinks his coffee with sugar taxed IS
per cent; seasons his food with salt
taxed 50 per cent; pepper taxed 81 per
cent. lie looks around on his wife
and children, all taxed in the same
way; and after breakfast he takes a
chew of tobacco taxed 100 per cent;
OF lights his cigar, taxed ITO per
cent; and even the sunlight from
heaven that shines into his humble
dwelling. must come through window
glass taxed SIS per cent; and yet he is
told he lives in the freest govern
| ment under the heavens. Then he
starts to his days work: puts the
bride, taxed So per cent: on his
| ho, Sc, and takes his horse that has
been sLod, the nails used in shoing
taxed SIS per cent. driven by Il
hammer taxed 90 per cent. and
bitches him TO pillow taxed As per
cent, with chains taxed SIS per cent;
and after the days labor is closed and
his family all gathered around. the
farmer reads a chapter form his Bible
tdNCu - ICl NCuess tAO AAOSAo wv" -
and prays to God on an humble carpet
taxed 81 FER cent; then he rests his
| weary limbs ON sheet taxed As per
cent, and covers himself up with a
blanket which has paid 81 per cent.
"Nor do these grasping manufac-
turers stop here, but even the broom
which his good wife sweeps the floor
with. is taxed 30 per cent. and the
cooking utensils used in preparing
her husbands frugal meal are taxed
40 per cent, and the soda used to
tighten his bread is taxed so per cent.
She sits down to her sewing with
her needle, taxed Is per cent. and a
spool of thread, taxed a per cent.
to make a calico dress. taxed 55 per
cent; or, if she wishes to knit warm
socks to protect her husband and
children from the bitter cold. she
uses yarn taxed 80 per cent, and thus
daily and hourly must the hard earn
ings of the laborer go to satisfy the
manufacturer and add to his ill-gotten
wealth.

Col. Winn's Report.

Col Vim, the city engineer. obtained
good deal of interesting information APP
parently about sewerage matters during
his visit to Memphis, Norfolk and Charles
ton. In view of the fact that he does not
speak out emphatically in favor Of any one
Of the systems which he investigated, his
rer ort of the result Of his observations will
be looked for with good deal of interest.
Doubtless he saw much to commend and
some things that did not meet with his APP
prevail.
liz may be considered settled that this
city is to have a sewerage system for getting
rid of the drainage from houses. OF
course the city council has not decided the
matter, but it is taking such steps as to leave
no doubt that it will decide it in the affirma-
tive as soon as il is III a position to do so.
It yet lacks information abo ut the cost Of a
sewerage system, and it is not prepared to
say what system would best answer the
needs of this city.
There is one thing that has cropped out in
the councils action thus far that is common
dable, and that is determination to adopt
no system about the success of which there
is hny doubt. 1t is to be hoped that it will
stick TO this determination. The amount
that will have TO be expended is quite large,
and the city cannot afford to spend $500, 900
or more for a sewerage system that will
not lie satisfactory and that will have to
have expensive changes made in it. 1t is
highly important that no mistakes be made
in the outset. and it is gratifying that the
council seems 10 be so carefully guarding
against mistakes.

Southern Railroad Deals.

The suit Of Nicholas Thouran and Will
lam Barr, Of Philadelphia, to have the lease
OF the East Tennessee, Virginia aud Geor-
gia railroad to the Richmond and Danvllle
annulled, is the occasion of some rather
startling articles in the Philadelphia news
papers respecting the intentions of the Wall
street mllionaires who have obtained con-
troll of the Richmond Terminal, the Rich
mond and Danville, the East Tennessee,
Virginia and Georgia, and the Georgia Cen
trail railroads
MesSrs. ThOuran and Barr are stock
holders in the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia, and the suit which they have
begun will oe heard at Knoxville, Tenn, on
Nov. 16. They are doubtless the parties
who are inspiring the articles in the PLila-
delphia newspapers What they say about
the plans of the Wall street syndicate, and
the effect of these plans upon the prosperity
of the south, may be true, but it would
be a mistake doubtless to suppose
that they are anxious to protect
the interests of the south, or any
part of it. What they desire to do, proba-
bly,, is to create a public sentiment in the
south that will assist them in forcing the
Wall street syndicate into paying them their
price for their East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia holdings. They pretend, of course
that if the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia is run in connection with the Rich
mond and Danville, ms, cad of in competi-
ton with it, the development of the terri
tory tributary to the former will be re-
tarded. They also say that it is the purpose
of the Wall street syndicate in question to
get possession of the Western and Norfolk,
the Louisville and Nashville, the Plant sys-
TEN, and the Atlantic Coast Line, and thus
make an immense combination of railroads,
that will virtually give them the control of
OF the industrial interests of the whoe
south.
This is an immense scheme. and it may be
carried OFT Whether the south would be
injured or benefited if it were,
is a question that cannot be answered
off hand. If such large monopoly vera
permitted to makeits own freight rates, the
chances are that there would be a great
deal of complai hing in tue south, but it
would not be permitted to. do that, and,
besides, it would be to its interest to pro-
mote the prosperity of the south in every
possible way, because III proportion as the
south increased in wealth, its property
would increase in value.
1t will hardly doto accept the statements
and predictions of Messrs. Thouron and
Barr without question. They are Interested
parties, and do not look at the situation
with unprecedented minds. The only thing
the south can do, however, if the immense
deal that is predicted is made, is to hope for
the best. She hasn't the power nor the
money to prevent the proposed consolida-
tion
