10, 900 The increase has been, in capt.
tai invested, S619 FAC. 900; in the
number of hands employed, 429, 224; in
the amount of wages paid out, 500, S94,
900: in the materials consumed, 1897,
coo, 600, and in the value of the product
turned out of 1913, 719. 600 There is over
80 per cent more capital invested in the
specified manufactures than there was
ten years ago; so per cent more hands
employed; over SO per cent more wages
paid out: over 30 per cent more material
consumed, and nearly so per cent greater
product.
1t is not believed that the growth of
these eleven industries has been eXcep-
tiOnaI: many new manufactures have
been established in the last decade, and
there are reasons for believing that the
cOuntry's whole system of industries has
shared the prosperity exhibited by the
eleven named. Assuming that this Is the
case, and making an estimate on the ba-
sis of the figures of 1885, we have the fol-
lowing exhibit of our manufactures for
1890: Capital invested. S4.1S5, 900, 600;
number of hands employed, 1850. 600;
wages paid per annum, S1.219, 600, 900:
value of materials used. S4,4l4, O00, 900;
value of product, Sc. 1919, 600 900.
1t is difficult to grasp the meaning of
these enormous figures; nevertheless they
give Us some idea of the marvellous
growth of the cOuntrys manufacturing
interests between 1880 and 1890, and they
show, further, how rapidly we are adj
vancing to the front of industrial indie
pendence under policy that secures our
home market to the product of our home

TARIFF REFORM RUN MAD.

The Democrats of the fifteenth Ohio
congressional district have just nominal
ed an individual named Harter, who in
his speech accepting the nomination,
said:
81 would abolish every custom house
IN the land. | would rather vote for the
establishment of an institution to speed
the cancer or field in which to propa-
gate cholera, or a school In which to
teach vice and crime, rather than to
vote for protective tariff of any kind. :"
The published account of the incident
also states that the declarations quoted
were uproriously applauded. Notwith-
standing the oft repeated declarations of
extreme protectionists that the tariff re-
formers were and are in fact free traders,
we had about concluded that the charge
was more matter of sentiment than of
fact; that in point of fact there is no
such thing as a free trade party in this
country. But if the incident quoted
above occurred as stated, declarations,
applause and all, it would seem that we
have been laboring under something of
delusion. However, it is comforting to
know that those who imbibe such eX-
IRENE ideas are not liable to occupy
positions where they can make practical
of their theories to the
country'S hurt.

HOG PRODUCTS AND ART.

The action Of the senate in restoring
the duty of 80 per cent on works of art
those made by Americans are entered
free of duty, mostly pictures made in
Paris by foreigners, has been generally
regretted. Although it cannot be pre-
tended that pictures are not articles of
| luxury. it is said they are also instrUl-
ments of education, duty on which is
an injury to the country by increasing
the cost of examples for imitation, and
| the greater number Of artists claim that
the duty does not, in fact, protect them
or in any manner add to the sale of their
pictures, so that the duty is merely a
revenue duty, and as such should not be
imposed by protectionistS.
Without investigating these claims, or
more than limiting at a doubt that either
great national school of art can be
built up or even maintained, or that a
general artistic taste can be developed
through the influence Of copyists, any
more than a Cooper, an Irving or
LOngfellOw is now possible in this coun-
try under the present administration of
college curriculums, it seems desirable
to call attention to the fact that France
has for long time Disseminated against
our hog products, the cheapest mode Of
marketing the western corn crop,
and is now, according to the following
dispatch, the New York Sun, propos-
ing to still further discriminate against
American products:
Compile Jouker de Careu declared that
the importation of American pork was
only another mode of importing American
corn, and French farmers could not main
tain themselves against ii. The prohibi-
ton Of pork was right and ought to be
maintained, and the duty on corn should
also be made prohibitive. NJ. Millaud
called attention to the fact that American
pork is only prohibited on the ground of
its alleged unhealthfulness. He declared
that this is merely pretext. Other mem
bers replied that it was all right, and that
the prohibition ought to be maintained
An article published in the Temps,
which is thought to reflect the views of
the government, suggests that there
might be circumstances under which it
might be desirable to withdraw the prohi-
bitiOn against pork.
viii not some Of the champions of the
farmers in Congressman they are there

that, like a greatly increased duty on
wine, for instance, viii by its operation
increase the profits of our California
vine growers and encourage a more gen
eral planting of grape vines? We men
ton the vine growing industry for the
reason that it represents the largest in
dustry providing export products to this
country from France, and which affords
the readiest item against which to put in
operation a reciprocal embargo to offset
that imposed upon our food staples.

ILLUSTRATED OKLAHOMA.

The first history of Oklahoma is being
written and the work will be sent to the
press in August. The first history is the
most important in that it contains the
germs of all that come after. The work
is being done by seemingly very compe-
tent hands in the person of Mrs. j. l..
Rock, of Guthrie, lady of considerable
literary and journalistic experience who
went into the territory with the very
first, and who has given Oklahoma, its
affairs and its people continuous and
conscientious study every day since.
The work has been endorsed by the gov
ernor and territorial officers. Hon. NJ.
w. Reynolds will contribute largely to
the work which is a guaranty of its fur
Their greater value. From the prospectus
we clip the following:
1.-The above mentioned work is now in
course Of preparation and will be issued
by the middle of August next. 1t will
be illustrated with portraits of prominent
persons-including President Harrison
who have taken an active part in open
ing and developing Oklahoma: also
scenes and views in different sections of
the territory at its opening to settlement.
The work will contain from $50 to 300
pages and "a portion will be bound in
cloth beautifully embossed in gold and
portion in heavy paper for distribution
i'll the northern and eastern states and
on railways The book is being care
fully prepared. and will prove reliable
in every particular. Every section of
the territory, including the new Indian
country; the Cherokee outlet and No
Mans Land, will be impartially dis
cussed. In brief while it will contain
historical matter of great value, in it
will be preserved many scenes and in
cidents that if not 50 preserved, in the
lapse of time would be lost-scenes and
incidents that will be read with a
peculiar interest by those that will sue
