THE STATE FAIR.

The GLOBE understands that there is
some opposition among oar legisl atorS
to All appropriation for the state agri-
cultural society. This is a farmers
concern, and the claim is made that its
annual meetings have been perverted
from their proper purpose. WILLIAM
X. MERRIAM, WILLIAM NJ. BUSHNELL.
and FRANCIS Il. CLARKE are hon
orable and able men, but they
can hardly be classed as farmers
with any sort of accuracy, and the fact
OF their election to the presidency of
the society has suggested to the gran
gers that they are not in the enterprise
They say that the annual fair is nOlh
ing but racing week, with some iakes
and merry-go-rounds for side-shows.
They think that it should be made
something different. They want it 10
encourage the farming interest, and
give it place where it can at once see
and be seen. There is something in all
this. The racing feature of the fair has
been made little too prominent. Now
that we have our driving club, this part
might be Subordinated somewhat. If
the legislature is not confident that this
will be done, it might couple its appro-
priation with some conditions to this ef-
feet. Bnt the fair itself must be pre-
served. 1t is one of the most important
things OF the year. Preserve the fair,
and preserve it by making IT farmers
fair. Elect farmer secretary. Iden-
tify it with the farmer and his interest,
and it will be success. Separate it
from the farmer and it Will be a failure.

GIVE THE FOOL A SHOW

When two or three men meet on a
street corner nowadays they say one to
the other: "rmes are terribly hard
We have a granger legislature. and it is
driving capital from the state. We
shall all be ruined unless it adiournS
and that right soon
This is stuff and nonsense. The
GLOBE challenges anybody to name a
single bill which has been enacted or is
likely to be enacted by the present
legislature that is inimical to the inter
ests of any honest class in the com
munity. There never sat body in the
chambers of the capitol so conservative
III action and SO honorable in its inten-
lions as it is.
If there is any criticism to be made on
ii. it is this: 1t is So timid that ii is
pr0crastinating. 1t seems afraid to pass
laws, lest they should prove unwise
ones. This is a pardonable fault. The
fewer laws we have. the better.
There have been good many foolish
and some trivial measures introduced
i'll the house and senate. But what
harm does this do? Has not the fool
iiE III ~ Uc llcdIu Ill our lcpISldliNe Halls.
The GLOBE rather gucSSeS so. That is
the glory of our institutions. They give
every man chance.
There are some people who think
that they can tell fool when they see
him. But they usually belong to the
noble army Of idiots themselves. The
fools of to-day may be the philosophers
of tomorrow. PRiAM used to shed sad
paternal tears over his lunatic daughter,
Miss CAssANDRA. But it turned cut
that she knew several important things
very accurately. JOIN Blown was
hung because he was fool enough to
think that slavery could be destroyed.
But ULYSSES 5. GRANT and WILLIAM
I. SHERMAN, who subsequently went
into the same business, made quite a
name for themselves.
Stand aside. Wiseacres of the street
corner. and let the fool have a show. lie
may not be pretty to look at. but per
haps he has more sense than he seems
to. The railroads and the money loan
crS pay large salaries. but they have
not corralled all the wisdom there is in
the community.

SOME FREE TRADERS.

People talk iippantly and inaccurate
~ aboutthe Democratic party and the
tariff reformerS being in favor Of free
trade. The term causes no shock, and
those to whom it is applied seldom care
to quarrel with the designation. In the
earlier time some people gained polit-
cal strength by claims to the exclusive
right TO the championship of free speech
ana free soil. They were catchy teams,
and free trade may yet come into the
category. Il has no rasping sound to it
now. Those who believe in it as the
ideal condition permeate more than one
political party, but few believe in its
present practicabi!ity The govern
ment must have revenue. and there
IS no other feasible method Of obtain
ing it but by duties. There, are, how
ever, elected to the next congress Il
few individuals who would abol-
ish custom houses and raise the gov
ernmeht revenue from other sources.
ItWould not be surprising that here and
there person aYowing such views
should be elected III states like Texas
or North Dakota, but it is very Signifi-
cant TACT that the only known unquali-
fed free traders elected to the next
house are from manufacturing districts
in the East. The most notable OF these
is THOMAS l.. JOHNSON, of Cleveland.
@. That city has been hotbcd of ultra
protection sentiment, and one of the
hycliest manufacturing points in the
country. JOHNSON is himself prom
inent iron manufacturer and owner OF
street railways. He is a free trader
with no reservations or limitations.
Cleveland is usually about 5000 Repub-
lican. and JOHNSON was first nominated
for congress in 1888. Under the free
trade imputation the Republicans eX-
pected to pile an enormous vote against
him. lie was frank i'll his declaration
that he would clean out every sign of
tariff. He made a remarkable run, COM
ing within 800 votes OF an election. Last
fall he was the choice of his party again
and elected by 5000 majority as an un-
mitigated free trader. WARNER, in the
Eleventh district of New York. was
elected as the embodiment of similar
views. There need be no apprehension.
however, that the coming congress will
cut of the great source of government
revenue. Free trade Will not come while
there are 800, 100000 Of annual eXpendi-
lures to be met.

A BOTCHED LAW.

AS those who have been so urgent for
d copyright law come TO look over the
measure that was passed and approved,
they feel out of humOr at the result.
The original and commendable first
object was to protect authors abroad
from having their books stolen and
reprinted in this country, without any
advantage to them. The protection was
not out Of consideration for the foreign
writer's, but to enable American authors
to find reciprocity in other lands. The
main purpose was to prevent the reprint
in England of American books without
recompense to the writer, just as Eng
fish works are published in this country.
1t was for the benefit of American
authors, not publishers; but as it has
become a law the advantage in it
accrues mainly to the publishers,
and is not quite satisfactory to
them. All the mechanical work must
be done in this country, and the appear
ance Of the work must be on the same
day in both countries. to secure the pro-
lection. A slight disagreement wit h the
American publisher loses the English
dQlltOl dli luC duf dutdSGS vi tllG INV,
and his book can be reprinted by any
body. 1t is already insisted in England
that the same eXactions shall be en-
forced there. American books must be
entirely manufactured there to have the
copyright benefit.
The publishers have no great reason
for dissatisfaction; but they do not like
the permission for any person to import
for use. not for sale, two copies of the
foreign edition of the work of an author
of another country. Still. about all the
advantage of the act will come to the
publishers. The most Objectionable
feature is the prohibition upon the inn
portation Of the foreign print, even by
paying the p per cent duty, Persons
may prefer the original publication. but
they are virtually compelled 10 take the
home reprint. The thing is a good deal
of botch.

THE POSTAL SUBSIDY.

| hder our new shipping law the gov
ernment will recompense those Ameri-
can ship owners whom the Mckinney
law threatened to drive out of the bust
ness. Uncle Sam pays for the freight
which they do not carry.-PittSburg
Dispatch.
The senate postal subsidy bill would
make the bounty about $1,000 a round
trip for an American-buIlt steamer
carrying the mails between PHILADELPHIA
and Liverpool at the highest contract
rate that could be allowed. -PhiIadel-
phia Record.
\ single English mail line from Van
cOuver 20 Australia is to receive 81. 050.-
900 a year. This is the sort of subsidy
which steamers carrying the American
flag have 10 meet on the Pacific, and
which the shipping bill proposes to rem
edy.-Philadelphia Press.
The animus of the supporters of the
bill was shown in the refusal to admit
the clause giving American merchants
the right to buy ships where they could
buy them the cheapest. The kind of
Fostering of commerce that arbitrarily
increases the cost of doing business is
not new one in this country, and it is
deceitful and corrupt One.-New York

does not provide for any general system
of subsidies. 1t merely authorizes con
tracts for CARRYING foreign mails on

country's commercial interests, or. in
other words, to facilitate the extension

pie are decidedly in favor of that sort of
legisiatiOn.-St. Louis Globe-D Democrat.
The mail subsidy scheme is less OBJ
noXlous than the general shipping sub
sidy bill, because it will take less
money from the treasury, and the evil
consequences of the measure will not
be so tar-reaching. 1t will be in effect
