THE NEW INSPECTION.

Secretary RUsK will deserve credit
for his efforts to open any foreign doors
to American meat, whether he fully sue
ceeds or not. France and Germany have
made the claim that American pork is
apt to be diseased, and is sent abroad
without sufficient inspection, the nom
inal reason for its exclusion from their
markets. 1t has been believed to be
rather pretext than the real ground of
objection. The tests Secretary RUSK
has been having made at Chicago OF
late afford reason to believe that there
has been more basis than supposed for
the nominal objection. Pork is eaten
raw, or but partially cooked. in Ger
many far more than in the United
States, and the trichin9 have con-
sequently more opportunities for their
bad work, as thorough cooking destroys
their vitality. The Chicago investi-
cations are conducted by experts with
microscopes, and the peStiferous germ
is found easily to evade the superficial
scrutiny. The system now being inau-
gurated is expected to be so thorough
that the foreign authorities will find no
room for objection to the condition of
the importations. The most rigid in
quisitors there are to be challenged to
find any trichin3 in the pork sent over
under this inspection. This is a matter
of considerable Importance to the hog
growers, as the loss to the trade is esJi
mated as high as S50,000,0O0 year. Peo-
pie in France and Germany have profit
ed largely. by this exclusion of the
American pork. They want protection
for their own pockets more than for the
stomachs of the consumers. 1t is not eX-
pected they will be convinced that
the American article is fit for use in
their countries. These are not the
growers alone. A class of dealers have
done good deal Of business of late in
buying the high grade pork of England,
shipped to that country from the United
States, and made of American hogs.
The figures grow on the passage from
s to II cents in this country to 20 and
40 when the consumer in Germany is
reached. The profit is divided between
the English and German parties. The
consumers are the main sufferers, and
American hogs damaged by having to
steal in at the back door. as it were.
The American hog should be allowed to
travel on his merits, which will open
all doors to him.
All the beef sent abroad also is to
have tie tag of the official inspection
attached, and that is to be as good as
American gold abroad.

If the recollection is not at fault, the
MCKINLEY people talked great deal
at one time about the reduction of
taxes on tobacco and liquors, if not the
entire abolition Of the internal revenue
system, in order to reduce that annoy
ing surplus in the treasury. Some Re-
publican national platform alluded TO
contingency when this should he the
mode of action. 1t was the theory of
the Democrats that, as these are luxu-
ries, they can stand taxation, and that it
would be better to let them contribute
literally to the government expenses,
and lift the burdens from the essentials
of common life. The Republicans,
however, did not materially reduce the
taxation of liquors and tobacco, but did
add to the cost of most of the necessa-
ries of life, and sought to sweeten the
dose with cheap sugars. 1t is now pro-
posed to increase the internal revenue
duties to relieve the void they have in
duced in the treasury. Perhaps, how
ever, should they again have the power,
they could avoid this by increased du-
ties on the things the common people
most use. The convention in Ohio that
nominated MCKINLEY the other day
indicated its purpose to contend for a
measure that will still further add to
the cost of all WOODEN goods. 1t is in
timated by an authority, also, that it
may be necessary to double the duty on
tin plate.
Canada has the past week been forced
to conform its tariff in some respects to
that of this country. 1t has put raw
sugar on the free, list with some reserva-
tions in favor of the refners. This is
expected 10 cause loss to the revenues
of S3,500,0 and as they have no such
surplus, it is necessary to fill the gap in
some way. This is to be done by raising
the taxes on wines, liquors and tobacco.
The policy over there is to make the
luXuries bear the burdens, and let the
necessaries of life be as cheap as pos
sible. Then they supplement this by
greater economy in and cutting down
the public expenditures. They do not
quite adopt the Republican plan of the
last congress, to break all the records iii
the history of the government in the
magnitude of the expenditures. The
Canadians make the best showing in the
matter,
St. Paul daily globe., 1891-06-29

have a moral slowed away in it some
where, but the difficulty in extricating
it spoils the effect. 1t is not believed
there is any eXigeney in mundane econ
omy requiring the wrecking of this
cherished story. 1t has been shown
that there are, or have been fishes, not
small-throated whales, quite equal to the
achievement. Instances in modern
times suggest its possibility. The great
animals OF some periods in the worlds
growth have passed away. Some may
have fingered in the water to the time of
JONAH. If there are difficulties
in accepting the narration literally
they are mastered in youth. Is
there occasion to renew them in later
years. There is spice of cruelty in
blighting the delight of the young per-
son, as the picture is pored over in the
catecilism of the men throwing JONAH
over to the waiting fish, by insisting that
it never happened. Then some would
lay the axe to the root of that umbra-
geous prodigy that grew in a night for
the benefit of JONAH. 1t is usually
easier to tear down than build. The
iconoclast rendS, or worse, emaciates to
disgust, with no substitutes. Moral, and
perhaps divine law should be invoked to
stay the ruthless and irreyerent hands.

A LOCAL NOVELIST.

One OF the books of the season is 'Di,'
novel by Squler L. Pierce, a well-known ST.
Paul lawyer. 1t is interesting to notice the
dual nature of the author-the keen. shrewd
man of law. and the tender, sympathetic nov
elist and the book betrays the one no less
than the other. 1t is a book of more than
ordinary merit though one cannot help
fancying that Mr. Pierce would be a BETTER
writer of sketches of life than of long stories
The most artistic part of the story deals with
the married life and divorce of Capt Schny-
der. a man whose title and ideas were gained
from rough life OH a canal boat The court
scene, especially, is worked out as no one
but lawyer could work it. The very obvi-
Gus moral is that most people marry on too
slightacquaintance, and some of the best
things yet written on the much-vexed mar
riage question are contained in ''Di.'' There
is not the slightest trace of criticism or SEN
satienalism, and some of the character
sketches, particularly that of Capt. Schnyder,
are excellent. Here and there is an unmis-
taxable allusion to local famous law suits.
and one cannot but recognize several st.
Paul people and incidents. The book is en-
tertaining and contains an element of orig
inality and of something more which gives
promise Of better work still from the author

THE GILLIAN WAR.

1t is not necessary to fully credit the
accounts Of the civil war in Chill pub
liShed the past day or two, to have little
sympathy with the party in possession
of the capital and executive machinery.
The predictions, however. that the
rebels will succeed do not seem to be
well based on present information. AS
in the last bellicose event in this coun-
try, the rebels are in the section nearest
the equator, the north there, and the
government controls the territory that
has the bulk of the population. e
would seem as if in all those Spanish
American countries people would be so
Injured to civil wars that they would not
mind them. A recent private letter
from friend in one of the chief cities
i'll that part of the world says the small
poX is having big run there, but the
revolution is good deal worse.

THE TWO METHODS.

The impending deficiency in the rev.
enues of the federal government di-
reefs attention again to the fiscal policy
OF the two parties which contested for
supremacy III 1888. For years the treas
ury has been Overfiowing with an an
nual surplus that ranged about a hun
dred million dollars. By universal con-
sent this condition was admitted to be
bad one, encouraging extravaganza and
corruption. In 1883 each party sub
mitted to the people the remedy for the
evil which it would apply if entrusted
with power. Both parties admitted that
the source of the surplus was in the
taxes derived from the tariff. The
Democrats proposed to reduce the taxa
tion which produced the surplus, accom-
panying it with reduced expenditures
of the government. The Republicans
proposed to reduce the surplus by so in
creaSing the taxes on imports as to
check them, thus diminishing the in
come from that source, while advocating
measures which would require large
expenditure of money. On this issue
mainly the parties went to the country,
and the Republicans won. They forth
with began to apply their remedy. The
so-called administrative bill was passed,
which taxed the packages goods were
enclosed in. and by other provisions
made the legal Importation of goods
difficult. The customs bill followed,
triply increasing duties. Partly be-
cause of the immense quantities of
goods brought in in anticipation of the
passage of the bill, but mainly be-
cause of the operations of the
law, the revenue from customs
has largely decreased. Assistant
United States Treasurer WALTERS
says 1--WE took in year ago from $780,
600 to $4,000 a day from Gus
toms. but now it never exceeds $4,000 a
day" The plan has worked success
fully in decreasing the income. The
details of the appropriation bills, carry
ing billion dollars, tell how the other
part of their scheme for reducing the
surplus has worked. The success of
the plan as whole has a complete If
unpleasant proof in the fact that the
treasury has reached that point where
1t will be unable to meet the expenses
SOf the government without the impair
ment of trust funds on which the stabil-
lty of our paper currency rests. The
voters will have an opportunity next
year to say whether they like the plan
or whether they will try the Democratic
method
St. Paul daily globe., 1891-06-29
OUTSIDE VIEWS.

The Republican politicians in Mime
sofa are organizing low tariff clubs
throughout the state to counteract the
detection of tariff reformerS from that
party. The object is to keep the tariff
reform element of the party in line.
Some cf them have been carried away
with more or less violence by the
Farmers Alliance third party move
ment, and others are in danger of drift
ing quietly over the line into the Demo
cratic party. The politicians see the
necessity Of doing something to coun-
teract this. and so are organizing a Re-
publican free trade party as an annex to
the Mckinley wing, which comprises
the great proportion OF the Republican
host. This is one of the amusing cpl
SOdeS of politicS.-PittSburg Post.
With Minneapolis in the field and San
Francisco anxious TO be honored, Chi
cagO will find three foes who may unite
j. in a combination. offensive and defenS-
i've, which will deprive Chicago of the
necessary votes to secure the conven-
ton. In this event Omaha occupies the
strategic point. The other cities will
readily agree upon Omaha if their own
chances are less encouraging, with the
hope and expectation of entertaining
the assembly politicians at future date.
-OuldDd DcC.
The project to unite Minneapolis and
st. Paul under single municipality ar
rouses some sarcastic remarks from
eastern journals. Nevertheless it is
clearly the course which an ambitious
and progressive community like that
making up the population of the two
cities would pursue. The cities are
closely adjacent, identical in interests.
and their common progress will be best
subserved by uniting under single
government. With consolidation the
energy now spent in jealousies and
quarrelS will be directed toward their
mutual progress. The thinly-settled
space between them would be quickly
filed by manufactures and residences,
and the united city would take its prop
er rank as one of the leading centers of
trade and enterprise in the countrv.-
ST. Joseph Gazette.
st. Paul and Minneapolis people have
taken to Dragging about what they are
pleased to term their ''lacustrine ad-
juncts." This is the boom term for
lakes. and the query arises, If the little
puddIes which serve as lakes up that
way are thus grandiloquently referred
to, what resources would the English
language afford for the relatively ade-
quate designation of Milwaukee's Lake
Michigan? 1t is much to be feared that
the Twin Cityites would injure their in
teilects in trying to think up some word
suitable for the occasion if ST. Paul or
Minneapolis had Lake Michigan at its
doors. "Lacustrine adjunctsp' Haw!

substantial verify. 1t is probably of
as much concern to the individ-
uals themselves as to the party
at large. 1t is highly improbable
that Gov. HILL expects to be a candi-
date in any serious way before the ma
tlonal convention, but he is credited
with the ambition to do very forcible
suggesting. He may deem it wise. if
not personally SO inclined, for the state
to present the name of its ex-president,
If it appears that the drift of party sen-
timent in the other states is very deci-
sively in that direction. 1t may. perhaps,
be discovered that, if the local dissen-
sions render it advisable to leave New
York, they will look West for their man,
and the friends Of Mr.. CLEVELAND will
do the selecting. Except CAss in 1S4S
and DOUGLAS in 1860, the Democrats
have not had candidate in the West
since the JackSOnian era.

1t looks very much as if, after the
able Republican journals who are so
concerned for fear that Grover Cleve-
land shall be the next Democratic can
didate for the presidency, have spent
the coming year in demonstrating by
accumulated evidence that Mr.. Cleve-
lands nomination is impossible, the
Democratic convention will hold its ses-
sion and put Mr.. Cleveland On the
course by acclamatiOn.-BoSto Herald
Qnd.)
We do not take very much stock in
the frantic editorials that some of the
papers of the state, whose first Obliga-
ton seems to be to Mr.. Cleveland rather
than the party, are printing about the
third party and its danger TO the De-
mocracy. The old party has passed
through many worse storms than any
which now confront t,and the apparent
fright with which some newspapers are
seized generally comes from people who
feel the sand slipping from under their

Gov. David L. Hill is a very strong
