calamity, the CHOLERA, the. people
hardly know what is best to be done,
and rely greatly upon the advice OF
our medical men. Clean up" says
the newspapers.
The cleanest cities in the world are
not exempt from this dread malady.
Yet clean up is q good move; but how
can you make clean city without q

streets and back yards, disinfect the
vaults, and yet the daily deposit of
40, 900 people Is 9 fearful item to deal
with. Our river, creek and bitches
are the emptying conduits tor world
of filth because we have no sewerage,
but if cholera was produced by filth 1t
would be with us every day in tie
year.
1t may not bs a scientific view
of the matter, but the cholera
is maTehing army which neither
wlp4a nor currents can stop
mNchipg In parallel columns, and
passing. over areas of more or less ex-
tent, and consuming q certain space
OF time to complete its passage. This
invisible wave may have reached US
already, or it may be passing to the
right or left, and it only requires the
Importation of q single victim to de-
velOp the disease. 1t does not spread
from victim to victim, but will appeari

once, without personal con tact, AMI
there will be no cholera unless q cafe

keep out cholera than the waliAfg up
of the privy vaults which is asanitary
mistake. Our deep black soH is q first

sinks and vaults are pest breeding
spots and incapable of safe sanitation.
The true theory is, individual sani-

Water 1t seems to be admitted is
the dangerous medium for co mmu.
nicatipg the disease, but il is not
commended that the water must be inn
pure. the soldiers who csmped at the

tariff than on the tools of farmers
and mechanics. IL is against pub
lie policy to tax the implements Of
industries where it is possible to
avoid it. The farmers and mechan-
les Of this country pay a heavy tax
on every tool they use, where in
common justice to our productive
labor there should not be a cent OF
duty levied on the implements OF
any trade.
While it is not desirable at pres
ent to attempt to force the reduc-
ton of the tariff on manufactured
goods below the revenue-producing
basis as a general thing, these tools
furnish an exceptional case. The
implements Of the farmer and the
mechanic should be forced to the
free list. This will involve no loss
of revenue worth mentioning, but
in the course of a few years it will
cheaper these tools and greatly in
crease their consumption, under the
well-known law that the use Of i'm
plements Of production increases in
proportion to the ease with which
they can be obtained. The removal
of the taxes from such implements
as ploughs, harrows and hoes, saws,
ayes, AYES htt roweis and other
mechanics tools, will benefit our
most deserving workers, as well as
our manufacturers, who are now in
position to control the trade OF
the world. They have learned to
swim, and if they fear to take the
plunge it is only because they believe
the water is cold. Once showed in
to it, they will delight IN 1T.
American implements of this kind
displace others wherever they are
pushed in foreign markets. Under
present conditions only an accident
al surplus is disposed of abroad
the object being to hold up prices al
home. Thus our workers pay more
for American goods than foreigners
do. By putting them on the free
list our manufacturers will be conf
PEELED to do a legitimate business
relying on American enterprise in
stead of hoping to sell exclusive ii
cornered market. 1t will double
our foreign trade in agricultural
implements and mechanics tools in
side of five years, and result in sat-
isfactory relations between the
manufacturer and the user at home
By all means let bill for an un'
taxed plough go to the Senate
that Western Republican Senators
go on record.

Tariff Revision.

I'm the preparation Of the first of
its bills relating to the tariff, says
the New York Times, the Ways and
Means Committee proposed changes
in accord with the principle that
should govern sensible and fair
revision of the present tariff laws.
Taking an important schedule-one
which affects the cost of the cloth
ing of every citizen-the committee
proposed the removal of the duties
OH the raw material, wool, and the
reduction of the duties on the man
ufactured product, wooden goods, to
moderate rates. Upon some classes
of these WOODEN goods the duties
have been increased by law until
they are enormous. The committee
has cut off those parts of these du-
ties which were avowedly imposed
as compensation to the manufacturer
for the duties on wool which is his
raw material, and has also reduced
the remaining parts until they are
even lower than the uniform rate
imposed in the Mills bill.
This was good beginning. The
bill is a logical and honest measure
for the reform of the tariff. It
strikes at legislation which has
largely increased the cost of wooden
clothing in this country, reduced
the number of sheep in American
pastures, and hampered American
manufacturers by many restric-
tons. There is no one in the Unit
ed States who would not be benefit
ed by the considerable reduction of
the cost of wooden clothing which
would be caused by the removal of
the taxes on wool and large reduc-
ton of the duties on goods.

An Example in Tariff Taxes

AS an example is always better
than an argument will present to
the readers an actual transaction
under the Mckinley bill which has
been furnished me through the
kindness of friend in New York.
He says under date of Feb. II:
II received shipment this week
from Manchester containing a num-
Der of cases of dress good, mostly
all wool, and some wooden and
worsted cloths, also some cotton
warp dress goods. Entered value,
$2,83l; packing is accountable for
$40 of this, the value of the cloth
being 1852. Ipaid $2,62l.O5 du-
ty. Ofcourse the consumers, public
at large, will eventually pay this"
Let us study this concrete EXAM
pie for moment.
|. We see that cloth and dress
goods Of the value Of $2,812 cost
the importer $5,233.05, which sum
he must get back from the cousum-
ers of the goods, with his profit up
on the transaction.
II. The goods imported are
among the necessaries in our coun-
try and climates and not the mere
Injuries of those who are rich OF
extrayagant.
III. The farmer or the laborer
buy these goods for his wife and
children and believes when he puts
down on the store counter dollar
of his earnings that he is getting a
dollars worth of goods, when, in
fact, he is paying more than half
of the money for the tax and the
profits Of the tax of several middle
80
men that have been wrapped up in
the goods.
~. These goods are also largely
made in this country. They would
not be imported unless they could
be sold here, for cost and tax, and
a fair profit on both. Except for
the tax we could buy them for the
cost and fair profit on it. The
tariff tax, which the Government
mixes with them before it allows
them to pass into the clothing of
the people, thus more than doubles
their cost, and at the same time in.
creases by a like amount the price
at which similar homemade goods
can be sold to the people. This last
is the purpose for which it is levied
V. The labor cost of producing
these goods in this country is moi
more than 20 per cent. greater than
the labor cost in Manchester, and
but for a tariff on wool that actual.
ly depresses the value Of our native
wool and increases the cost of the
foreign woods needed for mingling
with our native grades to make
these goods, the cost of material
would be the same in both countries
VI. Let the farmer and laborer
now sit down and figure out to his
satisfaction, If he can, why a law
of Congress should be made to COM
pei him to give two bushels Of his
wheat or two days Of his labor for
the same quantity Of necessary
goods that he could, but for such a
