nTariff Reform"

IF there is any public man in this
country who gives positive evidence
Of ignorance OH the question of tariff,
that man is Grover Cleyeland. Like
the parrot that was taught to say
"the tariff is tax" he is constantly
declaring himself Ill favor of tariff
reform" with as little idea as to what
the expression means, as the parrot
that declared the tariff to be tax.
He reminds us of the old fellow down
in New Hampshire, Democrat OF
the most pronounced stamp, who, in
making a speech at a country school,!
house in 1874, when Clay and FIRE.
linghuysen were the Wing candidates
for president and vice-president, and
Polk and Dallas were the Democratic
candidates This moss-covered and
rock-bound" New Hampshire Demo-
Graf could see nothing but ruin to The
country in case OF Clay's election,
and closed his speech with these
words of warning: "My friends,
should Henry Clay be elected and
the Wing party come into power
again, then, say, sdag.troid to all
our liberties! and the old fellow sat
down in the midst of immense APP
plause. Until the day of his death he
declared that his speech was what
carried New Hampshire for Polk and
Dallas. Perhaps it was, but Cleve-
lands "tariff REFORM will never
elect him president again.

English Capital.

st. Paul Financial News: In
new country like ours, with vast I'M
developed resources, capital is always
desirable, no matter where it comes
from. The advantage of this is east
ly seen in New England States,
whence much OF the capital employed
in the West has come from. Not
only have the citizens of that section
been benefited, but also the whole
West. In like manner would the
West continue to be benefited by an
uninterrupted flow of English money.
AS the West has made five dollars for
every one sent from New England, so
would it in the case of English gold
They would, of course, take out Of
the country good deal of money IN
the shape of dividends and interest,
but In the meantime the presence of
and the employment Of their capital
would increase not only the value of
the balance of the realty holdings,
but would distribute wages into a
thousand different channels. In the
meantime the American capital
which is thus released will find other
opportunities for re-lnvestment, and
be employed in the development of
other resources which otherwise there
would not be enough capital to de-
velop. The foreigners will never sue
coed in getting the best of us at this
rate

Flax Culture.

Since the Irvine trust was organized
and the price of binding Irvine ad-
vanced to exorbitant rates, much in
terest has been manifested in the Gull
ture of flax and the manufacturing of
Irvine from it. In various towns OF
this state efforts are being made to
establish factories for the manufac-
ture of flax twlne, it having been
demonstrated that it can be made to
answer the purpose of binding grain
quite as we'll as the twlns which has
| been IN common use, and be fur
nished at very much lower rates.
Secretary Archer, Of the st. Paul
Linseed Oil company says that with
machinery in operation In the North
western flax growing area a very
great stimulus would be necessarily
given to the cultivation of fax. AT
present most Of the flax is grown for
the seed; the stalks are for the cattle
or are burned, and a small percentage
OF them are made into tow at the few
tow mills in Minnesota and the Da-
kotas. Machinery has now been in
vented for retting the straw, which
does away with the old process, and
that which took formerly some days
to accomplish is now done in few
| hours.
| The farmer needs a machine to pull
up the flax by the roots, as the best
| fiber is near the roots. Mr.. Archer
thinks that as flax binding Irvine
may oe considered an assured fact,
there will he no lack of inventions to
enable the farmer to expedite the
harvest and prepare his fiber for the
factory in the cheapest manner.
Aside from binding Irvine the first
crop could be made to play useful
part in the production of raw ma
terial for linen manufacturing. A
coarse linen factory has been started
near Hastings in Dakota county,
which may be the nucleus of grea:
manufacturing interest and every Ell.
enlargement should be given to the
enterprise.

Brooklyn IN. " is called the City
of Churches, and, if the Eagle of that
city Is correct in Its statements, it
may be very properly called the City
of Church Mortgages. That paper
says 800 of the 81 churches in Brook
Ign and Kings county are equipped "
with mortgages, amounting to the
neat little sum of 1888, 253, the order
of the equipment being in the larger
denominations as follows: Congre-
gational churches, $751;, 1857; Lutheran
$751; 13; Reformed, 1926, 800; Baptist,
$685., $50; Presbyterian, $3s9, 500; Pro-
tsstant Episcopal, SAIL 400; Metho-
dis, $4l5, 1892; Roman Catholic, 81, 49,
pol. On these mortgages the Eagle
says the churches are paying $4,000 a
year in interest, while first and last
they have paid 81 200, 900, or sufficient
to build five first-class churches.

Let Agents Alone.

Agents, like angels, are of two
kinds-goOd and bad-and it often
takes all expert to determine TO which
class a given individual belongs, says
the Goodhue Co. Teacher. On account
Of this difficulty and because there
were so many wolves in sleeps
clothing, we have done our best to
head agents out of and away from
Goodhue county. Hence, but few
districts in this county have been
swindied by agents recently; but how
ever diligent we may be in guarding
against sharpers, once in while
they will get in and swindle some
districts before We hear of it Things
that are worthless are sometimes
bought; and things of some value are
bought when not needed or are
bought at extravagant prices. / hap

thousands Of dollars have been ex-
pended III the purchase of worthless
trash. Before purchasing any schoo:
supplies let us consider carefully
First-Is this something really

Second-Is il the thing we NOW

And everything needed for schools

us let agents severely alone.

The elevated railroads of New York
city have carried 100000 more passen-
gers in 1889 than they did in 1888. The
travel across Brooklyn bridge is increas-
ing at the rate of several thousand a
month. Cars and trains in the city are
so crowded morning and evening that it
is breathless scramble to get seat, or
even a strap to hang up by. Two OF
three facts are very apparent: The tun-
mel under the Hudson will have to be
finished to accommodate the increased
rush of travel, another bridge must be
built between New York and Brooklyn,
farther up the sound, and genuine
rapid transit, one capable of accommo-
dating all the travel, must be had from
the Battery to Harlem. The trains OF
the New York Central now go into the
city to Forty street under Park
avenue. Why should they not extend
in the same way to the Battery?

Fifteenth Year.

On this day Of all days-Christmas,
1889 - the MORRIS TRIBUNE COM
mences Its fifteenth year. 1t is its
birthday anniversary, and in view OF
its success in the past, and its pros
poets for the future, we feel a good
deal clated. The liberal patronage
given the TRIBUNE by the people of
Stevens county has been such i'll the
past that we shall renew our energies
and efforts IN the future in behalf of
what we believe to be for their best
interests; never neglecting an oppor-
tunity to say good word for Stevens
county-the best county Of the best
state in the Union.
Before closing this short article we
wish to express the hope that the
present Christmas will be a merry
and happy one to all our patrons. In
the language of Rip Van Wrinkle,
"Here's to your very good health
and your family's II may you lIYe

1t may seem surprising, but 1t is neverthe-
less true, that the cutting of evergreens for
Christmas trees is doing serious damage to
the forests in some sections. This wholesale
destruction of valuable young trees is becom-
ing painfully apparent in the gradual wiping
out of woodland in some of the most pictur-
esque portions of the Catskill and Adiron-
dack mountains, and many of the trout
streams are drying up. Even small forests
help to serve as reservoirs to water, for I'M
der the trees the ground is apt to be less
spongy, thereby retaining for u time water
from rainfalls, and later on allowing it to es-
cape in tiny rivulets as feeders to brooks, big
and small.
