age OF the bill. MORRILL, could say to
his sugar makers that he had the bounty
for them put in. and it was not his fault
that it was thrown out III con-
ference. But when the conference
committee reached this point and
were about to throw it out, the
other Vermont senator, EDMUNDs,
dropped little missive in, to the effect
that if the maple sugar clause were
dropped his vote would be against the
tariff bill. Maple sugar was then safe.
This was the Job to secure the vote of
one state. 1t is Illustrative of the
method by which the tariff was con-
structed. All those who had local in
terests to be promoted, or selfish schemes
that needed nOurishmeDt, made a pool,
and-ou of 1t came the measure that is
called the eXemplification of the pro-
tectlve policy. 1t could not be passed
unless the Republicans could hold their
vote solid. The Vermont senators are
counted the larger variety of statesmen
in the party and nearer to broad views
than the average. But they demanded

The question of annual sessions of
the legislature is being agitated lively.
The complaints are that there are too
many unjust laws lObbied through for
the purpose of money making, and for
which there is the greater inducement
because they cannot be changed for two
years, and more can be made out of
them thereby. 1t is believed that the
state would not be to any more expense
with annual sessions than now, and the
laws would be more understandable

thing to do.-Northfeld News.

WHERE 1T WOULD HELP.

The manufacturers iu the East very
naturally sign letters of approval of Mr..
BLAINE'S reciprocity. 1t promises a
considerable market for their goods, if
it comes to anything, but there is moth
ing of Importance in it fur the farmers.
Those Southern regions are agricultural
countries. Nearly all the farm products
they import have always come from this
country. No great addition to the de-
mand for them will be created by reel
procity. 1t would be worth vastly more
if the buttermakers of this country
could supply England with what it has
to bay abroad of dairy products. 1t is
estimated TO consume $50, 900, 900 of these
more than it produces, and not more
than One-tenth comes from the United
States. Reciprocity here would give
this country an enormous market for
dairy and farm products.

A MUNICIPAL ExPERINFENT.

The exp eriments made in the man
agement of always and street lines in
other parts of the world are usually of
interest, although the local conditions
may not make it possible to adopt their
desirable features. The zone system of
passenger tariffs in Hungary and Aus
trla, for instance, is great boon to the
people of those countries, but railroads
are not built there mainly to enrich
those who delude the confding first
parties out of their investments, and
then turn the swollen hose into the
fabrication that represents theoretical
OUTLAWS. Hence, it would De difficult in
this country to operate such enter
prlSeS on methods that would intro
duce the people as one of the benefi-
ciarY elements. Over III Toronto an in
tereSting experiment is being had in
the operation of its street railways. The
city government has leased them. and
Will run them under official machinery.
1t Is too new an experiment to show re-
suits, and no doubt there are prophetic
individuals in that community who are
quite sure that the city will make an ex-
pensive affair of it for the taxpayers.
Others believe it leads to the solution
of one of the troublesome municipal
problems. They insist that there will
be better and cheaper service and less
oppressive eXactions of the EMPLOYEES.
The occasion of the city taking
hold of it grew out of pop
ular agitation. The company was
requiring its employees to work
sixteen hours a day for the most meager
pay, and insisted that it could not af-
ford more decent treatment of them.
This led to popular feeling that the
city could do better, and as result the
company consented to lease the plant to
the city for term of years. The city
has reduced the fares and shortened the
hours of the men from sixteen to ten.
1t is not the policy in this country for
the governments to operate lines of bus
mess or engage in industries. but the
time may come when the protection of
the people VIII require the states or ma
ton to take possession of some of the
railways. The eXtravagant fallacies as
to the capital invested in them are OBJ
stacles i'll the way of popular prices
as the theaterS sometimes phrase it.

HOW 1T WAS WORKED.

The passage in the senate between
PLUMB. of Kansas. and the Verm ont
senators, one of the last days of the late
session, threw some light upon the infiu-
ences that inspire the formation of not
only protective tariffs. but most of the
legislation for the advantage of classes
or individuals at the expense of the
masses. PLUMB wanted to add to the
agricultural appropriation bill a pro-
vision for free alcohol in the manufact-
ure of sugar from sorghum. Objection
was made by Senator MORRILL,. of Yer
mont, and this made PLUME hot at once.
He discoursed i'll pointed and pun
gent way about the characteristics of
some of MoRRILL's constituents. who
had hands out to take in all the
good things and kicked when
small benefit was wanted in the
West. The instance was cited of the
maple sugar bounty of two cents
pound for the almost exclusive benefit
of Vermont, The demand for it came
from the senators from that state. The
provision was so absurd that there was
no serious thought with the Republican
senators of putting it into the bill. But
an appeal was made 20 them on the basis
of personal favor to MORRILL,. To add
it would aid his reelection, and this
was done on the agreement that it
should be terown out before final pass

1t might be supposed that they had all
fallen into the hands of the owners of
tin mines abroad and were sealed up to
prevent competition, or that the ore had
proved so difficult to work as to be I'M
profitable, or still of an impracticable
quality.
Then the tin plate factories that were
to bob up at Pittsburg. Chicago, st.
Louis and score of other places, show
a strange dilatorineSs, in view of the 20
per cent protection. 1t is true that the
duty is not in force quite yet, but the
price OF tin plate has gone up Is to 20
per cent in anticipation. This has ad-
vanced the price of canned meats and
some vegetables. Perhaps still higher
duties are needed to stimulate the cap
ltal that aches for this investment. Con-
sumers are paying more for most varie-
ties of tinware, but it is not because any
workmen on this side of the water have
been benefited. If the tariff is doing
good for any, it must be the manufact-
urers over in Wales.

SOME TIN DRUBS.

MOODY has gone out of the senate,
and has so entrenched himself in the
affections of the president that it will be
difficult for him to escape some office.
But the people are not alike attracted TO
him. Moody is responsible for the duty
of four cents pound to be imposed on
tin ore. He alleged vision in his mind
that there was much tin that might be
mined in this country if the owners of
the mines could be shielded from the
products of the tin mines three or four
thousand miles away. There was tin
IN the Black Hills of richness and ease
of production surprising all prece
dents. Tin mines also threatened to
unfold themselves IN half a dozen
other parts of the country, but it
is said to be very volatile
metal in its early stages, and it is
to be feared that it has all blown away.
Little is heard of late about tin mines.

A REFORM AGENCY.

There is hesitancy to disturb the reg
ulation in Massachusetts that has been
in operation in the large cities the past
year. requiring those who drink in pub
lie places to take their rations sitting at
table. 1t is found that in eight months
under this regulation the arrests
for drunkenness have been 1883 less
than in the same period before. If
this is an attested fact, and fairly
attributed to the operation of the
CHAIR system, it is matter of interest
in the effort to minify the evils of in
ordinate drinking. Expert evidence
will be necessary before it is deter
mined just what Is the philosophy in
volved. Some had presaged that the
comfort of the sitting posture and the
smaller duty required of the legs
would induce more liberal indulgence.
The disposition of the fiery element
to make lite early assaults upon
the lower limbs was taken as
tending to put hasty trouble in the way
of perpendicular drinking. The table
environment was opposed, as tending TO
greater inebriety. If the figures are to
confute that theory, they must indicate
the processes. Does the consumer be-
come so full that he is indisposed to
activity and does not go out into the
view of the police, or does the more
gradual absorption reduce the tangllng
effects? Before the chair is made a
great reformation agency, it should be
ascertained how the sales compare under
the two systems. Yet it is stated that
i'll the cafes and beer houses abroad,
where the sitting posture is prevalent,
drunkenness is comparatively infre-
quent. Such Quietude and decorum are
observed that women frequent the
places. The temperance reformer may
profitably inquire if the chair is real

CoIors on the Stage

No society woman studies the becom-

and such eminent artistes as Modjeska

ing with the greatest discrimination.
The former considers that the
color in question should be used
below the face when it is desirable
to subdue the complexion, while if one
has a naturally pale skin, red. worn
above the face, will lend it rosy and
becoming tinge. Patti insists that no
woman past her first youth should wear
the, to her, Objectionable color, and the
advice of one who has preserved her
youthful appearance so wonderfully
well is certainly worth following.
