Olympia seems to be full Of wise people,
judging from the steady stream of callers
at the parlors of the celebrated New York
optician, Prof. f. D. Seward, now at the
Olympia hotel. His careful, scientific
tests, and the splendid success he has
achieved in accurately adapting his fine
lenses to the eyes of scores of ladies and
gentlemen who are troubled with defective
eyesight, cause a repetition of his expert
ence in the large cities of the east and all
the cities that he has visited on the Pacific
coast.
In addition to the large number of prom
inent citizens Of Olympia who have called
to have glasses adjusted, many have come
from surrounding points. Letters of gratl-
tude are being received daily showing the
satisfactory results Of the work on the
coast.
Those intending to consult Prof. Seward
should do so without delay as he intends
to close his office in this city IN about two
weeks in order to give some time to Ia
coma, Spokane Falls and Helena, Mont,
on the return trip to New York. Prof.
Seward is not quack doctor but an expert
Optician whose reputation extends from
the Atlantic to the Pacific and stands
second to none.

LAST year the Canadian government
got up a scheme for inducing people to
leave this country and settle in its north
western provinces, especially in tine great
grain growing province of Manitoba; and
il is declared in an official report that the
scheme met with success as soon as it vas
put in operation. Agent Webster, of
the Csnsdisn department of agriculture,
found that lots of American farmers
were ready to hitch up their wagons,
drive across the frontier, take up land in
Manitoba or Assinibols, and enjoy the
Superior advantages that are there to be
obtained on easy terms Several hundreds
of them migrated from the Dakotas to
the Winnipeg region last year. leaving
the star-spsngled banner behind them;
and Agent Webster reported that Others
were ready to follow in the wake of the
pioneers. The Cansdisn depsrtmet OF
agriculture is so well pleased with the
news that it has authorized Webster to
extend his operations this year, and to
supervise the march of the Americans
into the western provinces of the New
Dominion. We learn by dispatch from
Ottawa that he is about to undertake the
campaign of the exodus, which is to be
begun in Michigan and Minnesota. but
may be extended to yet other states, and
that he expects toincrease the population
of Canada to the extent that he will de-
crease that of the United States.

Exporting Apples.

During the year just past about 600,-
600 barrels of apples were received in
Liverpool from the United States and
Canada. by far the larger part being
from the United States. Our exports
were the largest on record. During the
fiscal year 1891, before last years crop
came on the market, we exported apples,
green and dried, to the value of nearly
$500, 900, and if any apples came into the
country from abroad, the fact is not
mentioned in the government reports.
Even before the present law was
passed no mention was made in the re-
ports of any imports of apples. How
ever, something had to be done to make
the farmers think that they too are get
ting some of the benefits of the protec-
tive system. Hence the Mckinleyites
took apples from the free list and made
them dutiable at twenty-five cents a
bushel. This transparent humbug may
deceive such farmers as want to be de-
ceived. Certainly no one can be taken
in by it who knows that we import no
apples, but export them in considerable
quantities.
And what is true of the duty on APP
aples is also true of nearly all other
products of the farm. Farmers can get
no direct help from protection, because
their own products go into foreign mar
kets and offer successful competition
! there with all the world.

able at the same rate when imported
from the United States as when i'm
ported from other countries.
The only reason conceivable for in
Guiding these products in the ''reci-
procity" treaty was doubtless to create a
favorable impression here by large
showing. This is nothing but 'bun-
combe," pure and simple. The failure
on the part of. Mr.. Blaine TO secure a
more favorable treaty was not his fault.
He has been hampered by the limitations
imposed by the reciprocity" act. This
latest example of its work shows, as has
often been asserted in these columns.
that as means for increasing our trade
abroad the reciprocity law is failure.
What our secretary of state needs is a
greater list of articles on which to make
trades.-New York Commercial Bulle.

Though pig iron shows a steady fall in
price, steel rails have remained constant
at $50 per ION. In the report on the
cost of producing iron and steel products
in the United States, for which investi-
cations were made in 1899, the commits
sioner of labor says: The department
has been positively informed relative to
the cost of making steel rails in several
of the very largest establishments in the
United States, and there is no shadow of
doubt in the mind of the writer that
in these establishments the actual cost
of standard steel rails is, and has been
for some time, within few cents of S22
per ton"
The recent heavy reductions made in
wages by the Steel Rail trust and the
fall in price of BeSsemer pig iron from
an average of 1855 per ton in 1889,
when the commissioner gathered his
statistics, to an average of $685. per
ton in 1891, have greatly reduced the
cost of producing steel rails. The pres
ent cost to the trust is not over $50 per
ton. For every ton of steel rails sold by
the members of the trust they have
made profit Of $40. In 1891 the trust
produced 1865 tons of steel rails.
| The profits therefore We're not far
from 100000. Doubtless these large
profits have enabled Mr. Carnegie's
mills to declare over 8, 900 600 in divi-
dends, just as they did in 1880.

STEEL RAIL TRUST PROFITS.
How Beautifully the Latest Combina

How Beautifully the Latest Combina-
ton Has Operated.
Early in 1891 the Steel Rail trust
clinched its grip upon the market for
steel rails by the consolidation of the
two mills at Scranton, Pa. Previous to
this time, though both mills were men,
bers of the trust, one of them was in the
habit of cutting prices on favorable oc-
casions. Their consolidation under one
management removed this disturbing
influence. No better illustration of the
control which the trust has over produc-
ton and prices can be given than the
average monthly prices of steel rails in
1891. As computed by the American
Iron and Steel association, the average
prices of Bessemer pig iron and steel
rails at the mills in Pennsylvania have
been as follows:

As tending to show the facility with
which tin plate of American manufac-
ture can be procured by those having
need for it in their business we quote
the following letter from well known
Albany firm i'll reply o an inquiry made
by US:
ALBANY, Feb. 2.
DEAR SIR-In reply to your request
in regard to American tin plate would
FAY that our experience was very unsat-
isfactory.
I'VE ordered five boxes of American
bright IA by 20 plate as sample order
of an agent of Ely & Williams. He said
it would be ready for delivery about
thirty days thence. This was, we think,
the latter part of March or the fore part
Of April, but after several inquiries of
their agent (when he came to Albany he
said he was surprised that we did not
receive the tin; but after giving up all
hope of ever getting the tin it came to
hand on Nov IA, 1891. This we presume
was special delivery, SO we have not
taken the chance of being placed in such
position again by waiting six months
for goods.
| Hoping you will not have any such
delay as we have had in getting any
plate of American product, we are yours.

Tariff Is but Slightly Lower.
Now that the president has proclaimed

many il all its details, there is sufficient
material at hand to fairly estimate its
value. In consideration for the free
entry into the United States of raw
sugar grown in Germany, the imports
of which in 1891 amounted to $12 ,S91,-
$50, this treaty agrees to admit free or
at reduced rates the following list of
articles. To show the reductions made
we give the old duties and the value of
the various products affected which We're
exported to Germany in 1891:
