the policy pursued in the case of sugar.
1t says that ''in the whole range of
agricultural products there is not an
other one which, to the whole country,
would be SO fair as a bounty on sheep
raising: nor one that could be dis
tributed direct to the growers with so
little expense to the general govern
ment. by the employment OF local
agencies under the care Of the several
states. This would leave every breeder
to raise the sheep best adapted to his
purpose and locality"
Where is there any gap in that? The
case has all the claims that can be had
for the sugar industry. That had the
protection of tariff in all its history,
extending to the early periods. Like
wool, it was guarded by tariff barriers
from foreign competition. but it failed
to expand with the development of the
country to even in any considerable
measure meet the needs of the country.
SO with WOOL 1t had the tariff bulwark,
but its development was utterly mad
adequate. In the case of sugar
the policy of stimulation by tar
if has been abandoned and bounty
substituted. The principle is the same
as in the tariff, but the application more
direct and honest. If it is right to pay
the sugar growers in Louisiana, Cali
forma or Vermont two cents a pound
on their product, why should not the
wool grower be compensated out of the
treasury if he fails to receive salts
factory profit on his product? There is
likely to be difficulty in persuading the
Ohio wool grower that he is not as wor-
thy an object of government benefaction
as the sugar grower.

AILGOEs ABROAD.

The tin mines in California from
which the ore is being mined are owned
by capitalists from England and Wales
entirely. They claim to have bonanza,
and are in glow of enthusiasm over 1t.
That is evident from the statements OF
the circular they issue to their stock
holders. This asserts that metallic tin
can be produced from the ore of their
mines at S135 per ton, and be sold at
S475 a ton. At this rate the output of
the lode alone from which ore is now
being taken will afford a yearly profit
Of g, 1901 "nearly double the profit
of all the mines Of Cornwall" Probably
some allowance may be made for the en-
thusiasm of men who have stocks
to put on the market; still,
they should be satisfied without
asking the people OF this country to pay
$50 a ton more for their ore in a couple of
years, to add that much to the profits of
the mine owners. There is not an
American among all the officers of the
company, and all the profits of the rich
mines will be taken over the water. The
workmen will not share them, and the
cheapest labor possible will be en-
pIoycd. Tin has been on the free list,
and no tariff is needed for the develop
ment of these mines. But the MCKIN-
LEY act provides that after July l, 1898,
there shall be duty Of four cents 2
pound on block tin. The only parties
benefited by this duty will be English
capitalists, and the American consumers
viii pay the bill.

A RIGHTEOTs REVOLT.

The waiter girls in the hotel at COrt-
land, Ny, have struck for their rights.
The management promulgated new
rule which forbade their cOnversing
with the guests. They stood 1t for one
day, and then they found it unbearable
and went out in body.
A walters lot is not a happy one, but
it has its consultations. The male wait
er's consolation is his tips. The female
walters consolation is be joshed by the
Grummers. There is no use in drum
mer's going to hotel unless he can
talk to the waiter girls as he eats his
meals. He might better sleep in a hay
NOW. There is 10 pleasure or hope of
progress in being a waiter girl unless
she can exchange the compliments of
the season with the drummers. She
might better hire out for general house
work.
'Ah, there, MARY" "Still here, CAR
REP" These and similar witticisms are
as exhilarating champagne to the cult
ured travelling man, as he tueks his
napkin under his chin. Flows times.
CHARLIE?" There's dance tonight,
HARRY" These and similar witicisms
are as pleasant as her stiff starched skirt
and SUSIE KIRwIN apron to the maid
who hands him the bill of fare and
stands knocking her tray against her
knees while ne analyses its possibili-
ties.
The young women at Cortland did
right TO strike. Waiting without con-
YersatiOn is indeed uncomfortable.

ALLIANCE FIGHTS.
McAllister Expelled and Macune
Gets Slugged.

Gets Slugged.
STARKVILLE, Miss, Aug. &c. The
State Alliance to-day unanimously
adopted articles of impeachment
against Assistant State Treasurer W. L.
McAllister. He was charged with
conduct unbecoming an officer of the
Alliance; also adopted resolution con-
demning W. r. HAIL. also a resolution
fully indorsing Ocala platform. Quite
a number of prominent MiSSissippians
are present. MeAlllSter was expelled
by the Alliance because of his Opposl-
ton to the SubtreaSury scheme and ex-
posure of the official corruption OF G. w.
Macune.
DURANT, Miss. Aug. 26.-W. s. Nc
Allister, eX-Alliance lecturer, and DR..
c. W. Macune, editor of the National
Alliance organ at Washington. arrived
here this evening from StarkVille. In
the the hotel corridor MeAllister, after
considerable Worry in endeavoring to
provoke a quarrel with Macune, finally
struck him two or three heavy blows
about the face, dazing the doctor so
badly that he scarcely made any de-
tense before they were separated.
McAllister claims that Macune had a
great deal to do with the summary
treatment melted out 10 him by the AL
lance to-day by whispering it around
in secret caucus of Alliance members
that he (McAllister) was bought
up by Wall street, and was eXerting his
influence to destroy the Alliance. Nc
Allister states that DR.. Macune sold out
to Pat Calhoun last year in the Georgia
senatorial contest for $1,000, and that
Macune had robbed the Texas Alliance
of $4,000 or more while manager Of the
Texas Alliance exchange.

A WOOL nouNTY Also.

A trade journal published in the in
terest of the wool manufacturers eX-
plains why the increased duty on wool
failed to meet the expectations of the
wool growers in Ohio, and how far it is
operative in causing the prices to fall
two to four cents per pound. Without
repeating the familiar facts cited, the
view of the protective duty from the
manufacturers side is indicated in the
statement that the theory of the higher
duty is 'arrant nonsense" In the light
of the figures that have followed the
higher rates, it is easy for the wool
grower to agree with the allegation of
the trade sheet, but it propounds a mode
of relief that from the MCKINLEY
standpoint has pertinency and force.
1t does not believe in the gen.
eral policy of bounties, but sees
in this matter of wool growing an eX-
ceptiOnal case for the application OF

CHICAGO, Aug. 26.-The Pacific Short
Line will be offered for sale at public
auction next Tuesday under foreclosure
proceedings by order of the United
States circuit court. 1t is expected that
there will be a sharp contest for the
possession of the property, as several
companies are known to have had a COW
etous eye upon it for some time, and
will make the most of this opportunity
to secure it. Among the bidders, it is
understood, will be the Chicago, Mil
waukee & st. Paul, the Chicago &
Northwestern and the Illinois Central
companies, besides syndicates of the
original stockholders.
In railroad circles much interest has
been manifested in the Pacific short
line project from the first. 1t was orig
inally an Illinois Central scheme, but
was abandoned by that company and
afterwards taken up by the Wyoming
Improvement company. The intention
was to build line frem Sioux City to
Ogden, paralleling the Union Pacific
and shortening the distance by several
hundred miles from the Missouri river
to the Pacific coast. Sioux City men
added S1,000,000 to the amount that was
put into the enterprise by Eastern
capitalists. The whole line was sur
veyed and laid out, three different COM
panles were Incorporated and $50 miles
of the road, between Sioux City and
O'Neill. Neb.. were constructed and
put into operation.
The enterprise looked promising until
the financial panic Oh last fall. after
which the outlook was changed. Jay
Gould had gobbled the Union Pacific
and was understood to be hand in glove
with Huntington, who controls the Cen
trail Pacific. The latter road, which is
the only outlet from Ogden to the Pa
cific coast, was in hostile hands, and the
Pacific Short Line people decided that
it would be folly to complete their line
under the circumstances. The property
was allowed to go into the hands OF a
receiver, and is now to be sold by order
of the court. The Illinois Central is
said to be in actual POSSESSION OF the
road, and can thereby gain access to the
Black Hills territory. Ii it should fall
into the hands of the Chicago IL North
western it may ultimately be completed
to Ogden, if not actually extended to
the Pacific coast. The Chicago, MilWau-
kee d st. Paul would like to control the
line because it traverses rich agricul-
turaI section and taps the Wyoming oil
and coal fields, inSuring a prohtable
source of revenue to the company that
operates it.

OUGHTTOREAD THE TRIBUNE

ROSWELL G. HORR sings first tenor
in the choir of protectiOnism, and he
had a chance to show off his voice at the
Blue Grass palace in Iowa the other
day. Sometimes protection orators de-
claim that the tariff is the greatest of
national blessings because it makes
everything dear. This was the tune
BENJAMIN HARRISON, the sweet singer
from Indiana, sang recently as he went
on his way to Bennington. High prices
mean big wages. said ne, and we must
preserve the manhood and the dignity
OF American labor.
Sometimes protection orators declaim
that the tariff is the greatest of bless
ingS because it makes everything cheap.
This was the Annie Rooney that the
Michigan vocalist warbled at the Blue
Grass palace on Monday. If you want
to get the necessarieS of life for nothing,
tax them as heavily as you can, said he.
The weightier the tax, the lower the
prices, and the more the comforts for
the poor and struggling.
Nobody answered Mr.. HARRISON
back. because it is not polite to rattle
his eXcellency the president. But a
young farmer from Grant township
asked Mr. HoRR.i if the tariff made things
cheap, why sugar had fallen so per cent
since it had been on the free list. The
telegraphic dispatches report that the
great orator became terribly confused,
and that his notes fell all odt of tune, to
the intense amusement and entertain
ment of his audience.
Mr.. HORR ought to read the Minneap
oils Tribune. 1t is never out of tune on
the tariff question. 1t has pitchfOrk
which it brought with it from the wheat
fields of North Dakota when it moved
into the city. Every morning the en-
the force on that valuable paper is
called into the Office, and made to strike
the key in unison and in the stricteSt
accord with the sound of the pitchfOrk.
No man in the body ever strikes false
note during the rest of the day because
in his ears rings the chime of the pitch
fork. The Tribune would have gone on
singing lst as sweetly at the blue grass
palace if a thousand young farmers from
Grant township had asked it imperti-
nent questions.
The GLOBE never knew the answer
to this problem about the sugar tariff
until il asked the Tribune about it. But
it knows it now. The reason why the
removal of the tariff reduced the price
of sugar, the Tribune says, is because
this country never produced enough
sugar to meet the demands of domestic
consumption; but if a commodity is
raised or manufactured in less quanti-
ties than equal the needs of the country,
the more tax you put on it the more you
reduce its price. This is as clear as
North Dakota mud, and if anybody does
not understand it he is a fool. Mr.. HORR
ought to subscribe for the Tribune.
Then in moments of difficulty, instead
of getting confused, he will talk all the
faster. and enlighten the public the way
our next minister to China is doing.

Dear Sir: Your editorial Of August p

being established in your city as might lead
the public 10 understand that it was an au-
thorized agency of the Leslie E. Kelley com
pany, of Dwight. Ill. You also quote Joseph

most earnest workers in this new system.
Permit us to say that Dr. Leslie E. Kelley 8
Chloride of Gold Remedies. including hypo-
dermic treatment, are not in use in any man
ner or by any institution, at present, in ST.
Paul. and that your reference to Joseph Me-
dill has been copied from an editorial in the
Chicago Tribune of Aug. Il, wherein the
words operating locality have been sub
stituted for Dwight The tendency of the
editorial in the GLOBE is certainly intended
to create a wrong impression, as neither Dr.
Leslie E Kelley or Joseph Medill have any
knowledge of the ST. Paul institution re-
ferred to- and there is no authority Whayever
for publishing anything that might mislead
the public as the st. Paul papers are doing.
