A New Way of Calculation.

Some of the arguments of our protec-
ton brethren remind us of the new
species of arithmetic they have developed
down in the Argentine Republic. That
country is making great efforts to adver-
tise itself, and especially boasts of the
growth of its foreign commerce, taking
pride in the fact that it's exports always
exceed its imports. Gold is at a high
premium there, and it has just been dis
covered that the Argentine statisticians
calculate their imports on a gold basis
and their exports on paper basis. AS
their paper dollar is at 80 per cent. dis
count, the exports on the face of the re-
turns are always greatly in excess of the
imports, while in reality the reverse is
the case.
Protectionists adopt an equally spe-
cious method in speaking of the pros
perity of this country. AS the total
wealth has unquestionably increased
they strike an average, and that makes
very fine showing, but they forget to
state that the Accommodations have been
in certain districts and for the benefit of
certain classes.
The average of the manufacturer and
mill owner and others who are protected
is on gold basis. The farmer and la
borer get paper dollar average, whose
face value represents three or four times
what they actually have.-Louisville
Courier-J Journal.

The DUTY on Potatoes,

Mr.. John W. Woodside, of Philadel-
phia, appeared before the committee of
ways and means during the tariff hear
ings. He thought the duty on potatoes
should be raised from Is cents to %
cents per bushel Fifteen cents bushel
for potatoes means 40 per cent. ad va
loren, so that 25 cents a b1lshel would
mean 663 per cent. ad valorem. With
potatoes there is always either feast or
famine. When the crop in this coun-
try is good one no potatoes are inn
ported. On the other hand, when the
crop is total or partial failure, as-oc-
casionally happens, prices are sufficiently
high to be remunerative at home without
any duty to enhance them. Potatoes
are largely used by the poorer classes.
Dear food for such persons" seems to
be favorite motto with the high tariff
party.

Efforts Made to- Secure a Pardon for
Montana Prisoner.
WASHINGTON, Special Telegram
The persistency, tears and pieadings of the
mother and two sisters of man now in the
Montana penitentiary have moved the
hearts OF high officials here to interfere in
his behalf The mans name is Rowand.
About two years ago he was convicted OF
murder in the second degree and sentenced
to life imprisonment. A brother OF Gov.
ToOle was his attorney, and all that could
be done at law was done to save him. He
came from Quebec, of good ancestry, and
his family was wealthy. He was and is
still q subject of the queen. AS soon as he
was imprisoned his mother and two sisters
began the weary work of seeking a
pardon for him. The governor Of
Montana was said to have been
disposed to exercise clemency, but the
board of pardons of the state refused. The
mother went to Ottawa and there laid ht r
case before the Canadian premier. He be-
came interested and at length wrote to Sir
Julian Pauncefote, the British minister
here, asking him to intercede on behalf of
Rowand. The mother and daughters ar
rived here some days ago. They saw Sir
Julian and, with tears, laid their case be-
fore him. He responded and wIote Secre-
tary Blaine asking as an international
courtesy that he use his influence to secure
the pardon. The letter was taken to the
state department by the mother, and in re-
sponse to the request Secretary Blaine has
written the board of pardons of Montana,
asking if, as courtesy between nations, a
pardon cannot be granted to young Row
and. Mrs. Rowand and her daughters are
still here anxiously waiting to know THERE

That He Is a Prevaricator.
KANSAS CITY, Special.-A lively personal
encounter between Maj. William Warner
of this city and w. E. Greyston of Spring
field, Mo-, occurred in Justice Warthen's
court to-day. The two gentlemen are op-
posing counsel i'll the Wrightman murder
case, Maj. Warner representing Detective
Sherman, the defendant, and Greyston is
representing the prosecution. 1t was at the
preliminary examination. The case had
been closed and the question had been
raised as to what disposition should be
made of the bones of the alleged
murdered man and the other evil
dence that had been submitted. Maj
Warner insisted that they should be allowed
to remain with the officers of the law. Mr..
Greyston insinuated that the officers were
not honest. Maj. Warner said the gentle
man was mistaken, and Mr.. Greyston called
him liar. The major advanced toward
Greyston, when the latter thrust his hand
into his hip pocket and was about to draw
a revolver when the major pounced upon
him and forced him to the floor in corner.
With his hand on Greyston's throat, the
major was heard to say: "If you attempt
to draw that revolver I'll break your neck"
The combatants were finally separated. No
blood was spilled.
