The Rifles Enjoying Themselves.

The Rifles are in clover at Oak Bluffs,
Mass. They have taken the place by
storm, and the residents Of the resort are
completely daft over the handsome Wash
ington boys. Saturday morning, on the
verandas of the Sea View House large
crowd assembled to witness the mock
trial of Mr.. J. Boyer. Lieutenant Hay
and Judge Brown, Chief Justice of the
island, represented the prosecution and
defense respectively. Boyer was con-
demned to be shot.
Instead of the usual Saturday dress
parade the boys gave a mock one, and
each member tired to outdo the other in
grOtesNueness.

THE TARIFF AND THE FARMERS.

The farmers of this country have 10 pur.
chase all manufactured goods which they
consume, the people who manufacture
have to purchase all the food which they
consume. The farmer must get fair prices
for what he raises, or else he will have
little or nothing wherewith to buy manu-
featured goods, howsoever CHEAP" In the
sense of slow priced" free trade policy
might make them. On the other hand,
the manufacturer and his operatives must
get fair prices for their products or else
they Will have little wherewith to buy the
products of the farm. The prosperity of
the manufacturer must go hand in hand
with that of the farmer.-Chicago Inter
Ocean.
The ergo of the Inter Ocean from this
hackneyed truism is, that therefore the far.
mer must be taxed to enable the manufac.
turer to pay him fair price for his pro.
ducts; and the manufacturer must be
taxed TO enable the farmer to pay ham a
fair price for his wares.
This is the economic principle exempli
fed In the case of the two smart yankee
boys who were locked up one day in room
by themselves and made five dollars
apiece by shopping jack.knives. Farmer
Hodge pays manufacturer Jones five dol
lars profit on his wares to enable manufac
turer Jones to pay farmer Hodge five
dollars profit on his wheat and pork. Far
mer Hodge is richer by five dollars ant
manufacturer Jones Is richer by five dollars
from the transaction, exactly as each of the
smart boys aforementioned was richer from
the day transaction in jack-knives.
Common sense naturally steps in ant
says, as neither sides really makes anything
by the transaction, and the levy and col
lection of the tax involves heavy outsid,
expense, why not dispense with the ia!
entirely?
Fact, however, goes further, and demol
ishes the ergo drawn by the Inter Oced'
from the truism, by showing that the la
Is wholly one-sided, and that the farme
alone pays, while the manufacturer enjoy
all the advantages and pays no tax in re
turn. The case is like this: The staple

THE SHERIPP'S PAY.

The festive Norton has written letter
to the Republican, in which he says the
sheriff has received $10,8SO57 for earning
$7,201.s3 This statement is very fairly
analysed by the Republican, the result show
ing that Mr.. Morrissey receives as his
share (or salary, which is nominally So OOO)
the extravagent sum of $1,27374. This
may be big pile for Doc Norton, but is
pretty mean pay for any man tit to be
sheriff of La Sale county.
The Republican pointedly asks the ques-

The facts are, the salary has been cut

towns as did other sheriffs; and his travel

was In 1878, with more travelling to do. II
is notorious that the sheriff has not help

has said so, and the grand juries have said

What may be the RESULT

The annual report of Secretary Dillon of
the American Flint Glass Workers Union
shows a total membership of 5,697. OF
this number 1884 are locked out by the
strike, 448 are idle from other causes, and
2,9l5 still employed. In the whole trade
only eighty. three non union men were re.
ported. The President of the Window

report, says the window.gla industry has

In 1880 there were GAO pots, and In 1888
there are 1,l4S. Last year there were over
1 100000 boxes of window. glass imported,
and In October and November there were
over 100000 boxes, of the average value of
$1.15 box, laid down in New York.
About one,third of the glass consumed In
this country is imported, and the imports
Increase every year, while the fires In
America get shorter almost every year.
This is attributed by the workers to the
fact that steamships, telegraph, railroads,
&c, have so reduced time and distance that
glass produced anywhere in the world can
be laid down In New York City In less than
twenty days, freight rates from Liverpool
and Antwerp being as cheap as rail rates
from Pittsburg to New York City. The
