THE complaint Of the rich subsidy beg
gafs is i.ot that the transportation facili-
ties are not sufficient to bring commodi.
ties into this country. They claim that
the difficulty is ia returning goods to
South America ia exchange. They do
not explain why the unsubsidized
ships-the ocean steamer tramp"
aud sailing vessels-which bring
South American goods here cannot
care goods in return on similar terms.
II there could be any healthy trade any
exchange Of commodities it could be con.
Quoted on the basis Of fair exchange.
If the trade must be bought by addi-
tional taxes on the people II is not
healthy or desirable trade. 1t is pre-
posterous to attempt to overcome pro
hbitive tariff law with subsidy-paying
ship law. It would be an attempt TO pay
for a trade which is not wanted.

The Trotting Season Of 1889.

New York Herald.
The trotting season Of 1889 is destined
to be memorable for the number Of
records made low down in the teens. But
the sensational achievements have been
in the three year.old class. When the
season opened the best performance by a
trotter Of that age was the mile in 2.1S
made by Sable Wilkes two years ago.
Yet this record is now lowered Six
seconds by Axtelrs Terre Haute achieve

old. Sunol, has gone under the wire in
2l34. Guy has trotted in 210R and
Belle Hamlin in 2 12-the forner the
only trotter that has beaten, and the
latter the only one that has equalled
Axtell's time this season. But, all things
considered, the honors Of the year hav,
been carried off by the three year. olds.

Governor Jacksons investigation into
the matter Of state taxation has brought
out facts which strike him, as they will
others, as odious anomalies. He finds,
for example, that two railroads that have
about fifty miles only OF mileage in Della
ware pay that state taxes to an amount
exceeding the whole amount the State Of
Maryland receives from all the hundreds
of miles Of railroads in its border. on
its scanty mileage In Delaware the B.
and o. paws taxes aggregating about
S25, 600, while on its incomparably larger
property in Maryland it pays but $2S, 600.

port Of 1887 collects million of dollars
in taxes upon railroad property Penn

upon railroads, while Maryland gets ia
