WANTS FREE SALT,

Mr.. Vest argued in favor OF free salt, q
natural proouct which was found in in.
exhaus;ible quantities in every country
in the world aud in almost every State
in the Union. He had seen deposit OF
rock salt in Louisiana which would sup.
ply this world and five WORLDS like it for
an il|imttable time. Why, then, he
asked, should English sals be taxed
when the dairymen aud the pork pack.
ers and the beef packers would use it.
no mater what the duty was.
Mr. Cullom argued against striking out
the proviso in the paragraph, and said
that he had written to pork packer in
his State inquiring whether the general
provision (section 24) would allow a
drawback ia that business, and that the
reply was that it would not. The ex.
port trade, he said, demanded foreign
salt He had been always in favor of
protection even in the matter OF salt, but
this was not q question OF protection to
American salt. 1t was rather a question
OF protection TO the American export
meat business. Mr.. stockbridge argued
against striking ont tho provision. lie
said that in the past FIVE years nearly
100000 had been paidin drawbacks to
the packers Of the country. Michigan

During temporary suspension Of the
tariff bill a resolution was offered by Mr..
Teller and offered to the Committee on
Contingent Expenses for the payment Of
clerks 10 Senators and OF session CON.
mittee clerks during the coming recess.
The tariff bill was again taken up and
the discussion on the salt paragraph con.
tinued. 10 the course Of it Mr.. Allison
stated that eleven million barrels OF
American salt had been sold last year
in the United States and only one aud a
half million barrels Of Liverpool salt
that the use Of the latter was plainly ar
English prejudice. r.

manifested a prediction for the stage.
Perhaps this is natural, in view of the
fact that until two years ago her mother
took her everywhere with her Miss
Russell, while ION the road" would not
consent TO a separation from her baby.
Everything was done first for the com
fort and safety Of the child, and after
that for The mother. Then came a per
manent engagement in New York, and
the little ono was placed in the charge
Of the Sisters Of the Sacred Heart acad-
emy.
Miss Russell visits her twice every
week. and as often as the rules of the in
stitution permit she takes the child
home. On such occasions all things are
subject to the tyranny Of Baby Lillian,
and the mother has more than once kept
the stage waiting because she would not
leave home before sleep had touched the
eyelds Of her daughter. Lillian is not
satisfied with these vacations unless she
has been taken to at least two matinees.

Tens Of thousands of pounds OF capital
have to be sunk ere a single I'll ton gun
can be manufactured. A particular
reason for its being costly to make is that
its production consumes great amount
of time. To build such gun takes as
long as to build first class cruiser. Yet
another reason lies in the fact that there
are many and inevitable failures, which
entail great waste Of labor, if not cf ma
terial.
The III ton guns, without their mount
ings. cannot be produced or sold to the
government for much less than e15, ,000
apiece. the 67 ton guns for less than
about so, 800 or the 40 ton guns for less
than sc, 800, and the expense Of firing
these guns, apart from the wear and tear
Of the weapons. mountings and ships.
may be judged from the amount of pow
der and the weight Of projectile used.
In the case Of the III ton gun the full
powder charge is $50 pounds of slow
burning cocoa or $50 pounds Of West
phalian brown prism, and the prOjectile
weighs 500 pounds.
III TIC tt@ct oi tllt % tO'l Sill lut luAl
powder charge Of slow burning cocoa is
$50 pounds, while the projectile is Of
1850 pounds weight. In the case Of tho
20 ton gun the full charge Of brown
prisnatic powder is 295 pounds, and the
projectile weighs IA pounds. The esti-
mated cost Of one round from the largest
gun is about $50. from the second about
$50 and from the smallest about $50;
but this is the cost of powder, cartridge

SALINGER'S GREAT TALK.
He Tells Plain Truths About the
Ring at the Big Avenue
House Meeting.

Between six and eight hundred persons
thronGed the main hall in the Avenue
House last evening at the Republican
and Citizens Mass Meeting. Considering
the miserable storm the attendance was
something that surprised even the man
ayers Of the meeting themselves. The
Avenue House is within stones throw
Of the Court House, where another storm
has been raging for many months.

Herbert Potts, Spencer Weart nd Alder
man Max Salinger discussed the issues
Of the campaign in exceedingly lively
manner. r. "A. Williams presided The
hall was decorated with national celors
Mr.. McEwan compared himself to
Truth, and Colonel Wanser to Mercy and
Justice in the present county political
tableaux. He did not believe the present
contest was between parties. 10 be sue
cessful the anti-Ring element must be
largely supported by the Democracy.
He said it was the duty of American citi-
zens to hand down to theie children a
government sustained by pure ballot
box His allusion to the discovery of Z. 600
fraudulent ballots in the recent investi-
cation OF ballots cast at the last election
provoked the widest applause.

Wonderful Lack of.
knowledge Of That Tax
Campaign Flyer.

Mr.. John EdelsteiD, president of the
Board Of Finance, was busily engaged in
perusing THE JERSEY CITY NEWS last
evening when I approached him in re-
gard to the wonderful disquisition upon
the condition OF the city's finances which
he delivered at the meeting Of the Board
on Tuesday evening. He greeted me COR
daily and asked me what ne could do for
me. ''Mr- President" began, II am in
formed that the Board of Finance does
not propose to confirm the assessment
books until after election. and then you
propose to increase the tax rate or the
valuation. Is there any truth in that
statement?o
"No, sir, no. siri'' replied MIR. Edel-
stein emphatically, there Is no truth
whatever in the statement"
When will the books be confirmed
them" asked.
We'll, as to that don't know exactly.
We will have a meeting some time this
week for the purpose of examining them
but when it will be confirmed / don't
know"
THOSE FAKE RAILROAD TAXES
II understand that the railroad taxes
have been apportioned among the cities
entitled to them, Mr.. President" said,
land that Jersey City's share is $3.50 000
instead of the $685., 900 which your Board
placed in your budget. Now how do you
propose to provide for this deficiency of
sos, ,00O?r
II can't answer that question until /
see the comptroller replied the diplo-
matte president. THE comptroller can
tell YOU better Than I can.v
How do you propose to provide for the
deficiency In the Street Cleaning Depart
ment as pointed out IN the JERSEY CRY
NEWS this EVENING"
'We expect that it will cost less to
clean the streets this year than it did last
year"
'.But upon what do you base that ex-
pectation?"
WHERE IS THAT BETTER CONDITION.
why upon the fact that the streets
are in better condition this year than
they were last year.
s.ffow about the appropriation for
elections, will there notbea large defici-
iency in that item. Mr.. Presidents"
I'VE could not figure what the election
would cost on account of the Ballot Re
form law, we had no idea what it would
cost, so we had nothing to figure on, p was
the Bunsbian answer of the Financeer.
How does it happen, Mr.. President
again ventured, that the Sic, 900 bonds
which were ordered issued for the repairs
to the public schools were not included in
the budgetY"
Because we could not issue bonds
until the money was spent, and the
money was not spent until after the tax
levy was made"
What about the deficieeey in the pub
lie library accounJ?n
'sAll can say about the public library
appropriations Is that the appropriation of
SO 200 was satisfactory to DR.. Gordon. !"
This closed our conversation, and with
mutual assurances of our distinguished
consideration we separated.

CONTROL
10 TAX BILLS UNTIL AFTER ELECTION.
Finance Commissioner Edelstefn's boast
In his letter of the reduction in the tax
tion in the city debt The tax rate last
year was S2S per 81 900 on valuation OF
SIT, 100000. The tax rate this year has
been reduced to s26. 40 per $1,000 but the
valuations are sure to go up TO $T9 000, 600.
and as the assessors books are not to be
confirmed by the Board Of Finance till
after election, the chances are that the
valuations will amount 60 $S5 000, 600. The
Board of Finance met on Tuesday ever
ing for the ostensible purpose of confirm
ing the books, and the Ring Republican,
paper sent out great shout under big
display headings, an evening or two ago,
that the financial department of the city
was SO proud of it's record that the tax
ton. But the Board of Finance failed
to confirm the assessors books, and the
tax bills are to be prudently withheld till
after election. Last year the tax bills
were kept back till after election, and
there was great howl of indignation all
around when they reached the hands of
those who had to pay them. The same
policy Isl being pursued this year. The
Ring knows ifthe bills were sent out now
the outraged taxpayers would vote to a
man against its longer continuance in
power, and it has decided not TO take the
risk. So a story that the valuation books
would not balance was cooked up to ex-
plain the failure to confirm the books,
and the financiers went to their homes.
Tne Board of Finance will not meet again
until next week, and the bills cannot 60
out until it has confirmed the assessors
valuations.
