The county court at its last
session employed an agent to fund
$4,000 of Benton township bonds,
and allowed the agent s65 for lith-
ographing the bonds. At the time
another individual was in town
who would have done the Iitho-
graphing for nothing and would
have given a bonus of S35 for the
privilege of funding the bonds.
The economical management of
the court in not making known
the fact that bonds were to be
funded, cost the county just 500.

RECIPROCITY AND ITS FRUITS.

The reciprocity agreement between
France and the United States, recently
signed by President CArpot, is based on
the reciprocity provision OF the Mckinley
law, which repealed the revenue duties on
raw sugar. France. like Germany, PRO-
duces beet sugar.
Both France and Germany owe the estab-
lishment of this valuable industry 10 the
first Napoleon. whose capaciou as, practical
mind achieved victories in peace as well as
war. France, like Germany, saw that she
must make concessions in return for the
free privileges of our great market for
sugar or lose that market by discrimi-
nsting duty against French beet sugar
The American products admitted under
the French minimum tariff duties are
canned meats, fresh and dried table fruits,
except raisIns; rough-hewn or sawn TIM
Der; wood paving blocks; staye wood for
casks; hops, pears and compressed apples
The government of Nicaragua has re-
moved ali tariff duties from thirty-foar
principal articles OF American prod
and manufacture. In the agricultural
line these thirty-four articles include
wheat, corn, oats, rye, hay, beans, pota-
toes and many manufactured articles de-
rived from agricultural products, such as
cornmeal, starch, cotton seed oil. bran,

get rid of these embarrassing stocks Of sill
yer coins held by the bank of France"
Germany and Roumania have already
disposed of large portion OF their silver,
the one at loss of 10 per cent. and the
other at a loss of 25 per cent; and another
great empire, Austria Hungary, is max
ing preparations for melting down its sill
yer coins at q loss of 20 per cent. OF
course they would be glad to sell the rest
of it at the small loss Of per cent. Mr..
Leech says:
II our minis should Be opened to the free
coinage OF silver, under existing conditions, the
stocks OF silver would move TO this country
solely because they could be converted, at the
highest market price. into our legal tender
money. which could in turn be converted into
gold at par; but the moment our currency
reached a silver basis, when our legal tender
paper money could only BE- exchanged Tor silver

WHEAT AND tOTTON.

The Northwest is prosperous. Mime
sofa and the Dakotas contributed about
100, 100000 bushels of wheat to the crop of
GOO, 0O0, 900 bushels the country produced
last year. This, with the 120, 000, 900 BUSH
els of oats, the. $4,000, 600 bushels of corn,
the 10000, 600 bushels of barley, in addition
to the rye. potatoes, fax, hay and cattle,
and the return to the farmers of Mime
sofa and the Dakotas from the crops of
1891 was about $50 000, 900, after deduct
ing what they needed for home use and
for this years seeding. As the farmers in
Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas were equally
successful the six states known as the
Northwest are the richer today by $780,
100000, probably, than they were in 1850.
The South on the other hand is poor be-
cause of its immense overproduction of
cotton. Last year the South raised 9,0O0,-
600 bales, and 1000, 600 bales more than
the world wants. The price has fallen
from 10 cents to 5ls IN Texas, and the sur
plus is piled up around the stations with
no one to buy it.
The cotton merchants are ruined; the
farmers have no corn, and the South is
sad. but wisely proposes next year to raise
less cotton and more sugar, rice and corn.

etc. In the lumber line rough and fin
ished wood for building purposes, agri-
cultural tools, wagons, carts, etc., are in
cluded. Iron and steel for railroad and
bridge purposes, barbed wire, mining and
agricultural machinery, and lightning
rods are among the metal manufactures to
be admitted free of duty. The Mckinley
law admits free of duty raw sugar, molas-
ses, coffee and other tropical products
which the soil OF the United States cannot
supply to our people.
The Democratic tariff reformers" in
congress denounce This reciprocity under
the Nick inley tariff as a humbEg, and
propose to take the tariff duties from iron,
lumber, wool, salt. ETC., and put them
upon sugar, molasses, coffee, ETC.. for
revenue only"

RETALIATION AGAINST CANADA,

The abolition of the bonding privilege
which allows goods destined for Canada to
pass through the United States without
duties, and vice versa, would touch Cam
ada ION the raw" for 1t would injure the
Dominion far more than the United States.
The Canada Southern connection between
the New York Central at Suspension
Bridge and the Michigan Central at De-
troit would be the heaviest sufferer; but
that line is very largely owned by Cana
dians and Englishmen. and while it is an
important link in the Vanderbilt system,
the Lake Shore and its Nickel Plate ten
der could handle the Vanderbilt traffic.
The Grand Trunk road is a Canadian En-
glish corporation, and its business be-
tween sarnia and Chicago would be an
initiated.
If the provisions of the interstate COM
merce railway act were inforced by con
gress against the Canadian Pacific railway
that corporation would be bankrupt in
month. That railway now enjoys the
privilege of participating in the trans
continental business between Boston and
New York on the one hand and San Fran
cisco on the other, and is about to build an
extension southwark from Regina in Man
itoba to ST. Paul IN order TO intercept the
transcontinental traffic between St. Paul
and Chicago on the one hand and the Pa
cihc slope on the other. The Canadian
Pacific is not subject to the provisions of
our interstate commerce law. and by rea-
son of that act is permitted to secure 8
large transcontinentsl traffic which other
wise would be handled by the railroad
lines on this side Of the border.
The loss of this vast traffic would make
the Canadian Pacific railroad sick unto
death

Emperor William of Germany has for
many years suffered from disease of the
ear. 1t appears to be conceded that it
indicates. with the frequent discharges
from the ear, deep-seated liberation,
which has caused carries of the bones of
the skull. The excruciating pain which
William suffers indicates that the infiam-
nation Is going deeper and becoming
more virulent The disease il incurable,
and the most serious results may be
expected. The kaiser's recent extrava-
gances and alterations are attributed to
the effect of the disease on his brain.
In Berlin, so it is said. this condition of
the emperor is well understood, and all
his eccentricities and vagaries are ascribed
to it. Most of the strange things ne has
done or said are reported to have accom-
panied or followed paroIysm of pain.
Frederick William the Fourth, the
brother of the emperor's grandfather,
suffered from the same scrofulous sffec-
ii, n of the ear, which finally affected his
brain, reduced him to imbecility and made
a regency nece sary.

BATTLE. FRIDAY. MARCH a5.
A STEP FURTHER.

Mayor Ronald has gone a step further
in the direction of arbitrary power. He
has requested the designations of Police
Commissioners Guy, Ledgerwood and
Stone. If these gentlemen refuse to re-
sign he will doubtless remove them from
Office, finding his supposed authority for
so doing in the section of the charter
which he quotes in justification Of his re-
moval of Chief Rogers.
OF course, if the mayors Interpretation
of the charter is correct, the whole system
of government through commissions has
fallen fiat, the checks and balances intro
duced in the city government by the max
ers of the charter are of no account, and
the charter itself is about as meaningless
a document a, could well be imagined.
If the police commissioners permit
themselves to be removed, the mayor will
doubtless turn his attention to the other
boards and will undertake to remove every
obstacle to the building up of complete
Democratic machine.
