nearly 800 millions of dollars worth OF
products ON their hands, per year, that
they could not sell. 1t means, there
fore, lower prices for farmers goods
il means ruination of American farm
ers.
The shutting out of British goods
from the American market would not
only destroy the expectation OF agrl-
cultural products from this country,
but il would also cause Tie farmers
to pay still higher prices for tho wool
ems, glass, leather, and other manuiac

more at the mercy Of home manulac-

The question is simply that if the
people of this country will not take

then the people Of that island can moi

To Lose the British Market Would b,
Disastrous to American Farmers.

The following item, from Il late
associated press dispatch, relates to a
discussion in the British parliament
regarding the Republican Mckinley
robber tariff bill, which has passed
one house of congress:
Mr. Charles Vincent, member for Cen
trail Sheffield, called the attention of the
House to the fact that the House of Rep
rcsentativcs at Washington had passed n
bill providing for enhanced prohibitory
duties on cutlery, tin plates, iron hoops,
and other articles of British export. He
asked whether the English government
having regard for the disastrous effect
which the Senate's approval must have
upon Sheffield the Midlands, South
Wales, and Belfast, would adhere to
their view that the free import system of
the United Kingdom precluded an in
struction to the British Minister at
Washington TO represent to the United
States Government the injury that such
legislature would do to the industry of u
friendly power which in 1899 gave free
market to G95,000,000 worth of COM
peting American goods.
The above extract is apt to make
the protection men shout ont joyfully,
and extoll the benefits to be derived
from the Mckinley bill. They will
state how they are bringing foreign
nations under subsection by refusing
to take the goods manufactured by them
because placing II prohibitory tariff
OH foreign goods has the tendency to
prevent such from being shipped to
this country.
To the thinking farmer the question
has far more serious aspect. 1t
means disaster to the agriculturists.
Mr.. Vincent states that England fur
nished free market to 800, 100000
worth of American goods. In Amer
lean money the above sum nearly
amounts to Sl75,00O,0O0. Most of
this large sum represents agricultural
products-the surplus OF the Ameri-
can farmers, and which they were I'M
able to sell in this country.
Now if a tariff is placed so high as
to prevent the importation of British
goods, then the British people will be
unable to purchase the surplus farm
products of American farmers. They
are not able to buy what wheat, oats,
corn, -four, cotton, dairy products ETC.,
they need and pay cash for them. No
country in the world can do so. The
only way that they can buy American
products is by exchanging their sur
plus manufactures for them. To shut
out British goods from the American
market, will cause American agricul-
tural products 10 be shut out from the
British markets, and the result would
be that American farmers would have

The Telegraphs of the World

Sixty.one per cent of the telegraph
lines of the world are owned and OPP
Grated by the governments. OF the
sum total of lines, those in the United
States constitute more than 30 pei
cent. Leaving this country out OF
consideration, about SO per cent OF
the remainder is under the control OF
governments or, leaving the United
States and Canada out, fully 90 pei
per cent is owned by governments
There are at least 100000 miles OF
wires in use in the world.
Tariffs vary greatly. In North
America the body Of the message only
is charged for in other countries tho
address, or signature, or both are toll
able. In the United States the toll
ranges from % cents to 81 for &c
words, according to the distance in
the Argentine Republic it is 40 cents
for 10 words, and 20 cents for each
additional 10 words In Denmark
and in Sweden and Norway, 1874
cents for 10 words, and 1.34 cents for
each additional word in Ecuador, 20
cents for 10 words; in Egypt, 49.6
cents for 10 words; in Germany, 4
cents per word, the minimum being
IA cents per message; in the United
Kingdom, sixpence for II words in
the Cape colonies, one shilling for 10
words, and sixpence for each addition
al five words or part thereof; in

In New Zealand messages are classiG-
ed as urgent, ordinary, and delayed,
the rates being respectively two shill-
ings, one shilling, and sixpence for
10 words, with halfpenny for each
additional word.
In mileage, relative number of of
fees, popular use of the telegraph
and cost of sending message, we are
not in advance of leading countries,
and we are even behind some of the
inferior ones. Within the years 1870
SO the increase in population in Eng
land has been Is per cent, the increase
in the number of letters carried 20 per
cent, and the increase in the number
of kilograms 455 per cent. In popu-
lation has been 90 per cent, and the
rumber of messages $50 per cent. In
the ratio of increase of messages to in
crease Of population the English have
beaten us three to one.--Bronson G.

REPLY TO Mr.. T. MAY.

EDITOR BULLETIN
In spite of the saying, the better
the day, the better the deed, Mr..
T. May has not succeeded in pro-
ducing logical reply to my letter
of Thursday by waiting till Sunday
to write it. 1t makes no attempt to
reconcile the usurpation of the Pres
ident' chair by Mr.. Macintosh with
the Charter of the Board of Trus-
tees. 1t simply alleges without any
evidence: (l), That the President
refused to perform his duty. and
(2), That the President disobeyed
the Court. The second assertion
cannot be true, because the Court,
in deciding that the President was
obliged to call meeting under the
circumstances, denied having any
jurisdiction over the private affairs
of the Board; the first will be sup
posed to be fact by those only
who are of opinion that Mr.. May
knows the Bishops duty better than
he knows it himself. Until it is
proved by competent authority that
the Bishops conception of his duty
is erroneous, it is somewhat pre-
mature for Mr.. May TO offer his
services as Episcopal instructor. No
doubt it is kindly meant, and, under
80 enlightened teacher, could
hardly fail to make progress in the
lesson he is 80 anxious should
learn. But somehow this anxiety
for my education connects itself in
my mind with proverb about glass
houses aud stOne-throwing,
