SUB-TREASURY FOR MERCHANTS,

It was stated at the custom house
recently that there Is now owing to
the government on duties on goods
held in bonded warehouses, $21, 654,-
020.O3. This is the estimate made on
the LIST of April. In January the
amount was $21, $50, 1904
This condition of affairs is due to
the repeal of the old warehouse law.
Under its provisions importers were
only allowed to leave merchandise in
warehouses for year. After that Z
penalty of 10 per cent of the duty was
levied in addition to the tariff.
The penalty clause has been stricken
from the law, and now merchants can
leave their goods in bond for three
years. After that if not released
they are classed as unclaimed and sold
by the government.
BY placing the average duties on all
this merchandise at 40 per cent it is
estimated that sos, 900. 600 worth Of
foreign products are held in reserve to
b placed on sale when the market for
them is favorable. New York Press.

He WOULD HAVE NO SHOW.

The Farmers Tribune suggests de-
bate between Secretary Morton and
some Nebraska farmer, the subject to
be the alliance demands. We raise
the point that it would not be fair for
the secretary. He would stand no
show whatever. The farmer would
have his political hide on the fence to
dry before the secretary could
catch the speakers eye. What
such men as Secretary Nor
ton and Grover Cleveland don't
know about the farmers needs and
wants and ills, would make a large
volume, very large volume, large
enough for Cleveland to sit down on
without humping his head. How can
they be expected to know anything?
They believe thai wealth is produced
by the men who accumulate it. Never
mixing with the farmer they know
nothing about his condition. The
circle they move in is fine haired and
wealthy. They take it for granted
that as this is true, the farmers
are also well to do. They are
wise in their own conceit. They are
like the fool who is wiser in his own
conceit than the seven men who can
give reason" They're on top; the
farmer is at the bottom. The farmer
knows which side of his bread is but.
tered-that is, some of them do-and
conspicuous among these is the
Nebraska farmer. No, it would be
insulting the intelligence of the farm
| or to yoke him in debate on these
questions with the secretary. Let us
not humiliate him.

IT SEEMS to be the object of the
banks, just now, to encourage lack
of confidence in the financial situa-
ton. AS confidence comprises about
three-fourths of their capital and is
not so easily restored as shaken, they
may have cause to regret 1t IN the
future. The people are growing tired
of system they can't depend upon,
and it is only matter of time when
they will wipe out the whole thing.

Cardinal Gibbons on Sunday
Opening Of the Fair.

Cardinal James Gibbons, Archbish-
| op of Baltimore and primate Of the
Roman Catholic Church in the United
I States, says in regard to the proposed
closing OF the Worlds Fair on Sunday.
"W hen the question was first brought
up, gave it as my opinion that it
would not be advisable to close the
Fair for the entile Sunday favored
opening it Sunday afternoon for many
good reasons, which TO Catholics are
very strong and we'll founded. In the
first place we would not 60 as far as
the upholders of the Puritan Sunday,
much as condemn the lax observance
of the day in European countries.
We believe the Lords Day to be not
only day of rest and religious obser-
vance, but a day il, which innocent
recreation is allowable. fla visit to
the Fair comes within that limit, the
recreatiOns on Sunday afternoons can
not be considered desecration of Sun
day. Having performed the religious
duties required of them in the morn
ing. our Catholic people are free then
to spend the day in such recreation as
become the Sunday.
Moreover, in view of the fact that
mans thousands of visitors to the
Fair must be of the class who paw no
respect to the religious character of
Sunday, it seems matter of common
prudence to provide them with q
means of spending the day innocently,
instead of leaving them to their own
inclinations and the numero ous TENN
tations certain to be placed in their
way. Then again, it is real hard
ship to deprive so many thousands of
honest working eople of their only
opportunity to see the Fair. These
and o her leasons lead me to believe
that the Fair should be opened Sun
day afternoon, and that mO:e evil will
result from Sunday closing than from
the opening. have just sent paper
on this matter to a congress at Chica-
go ofpromoters of Sunday observance.
In it is presented the true Catholic
view of Sunday, and the reason for it's
careful observance.
"So long as all are agreed that one
day out of the seven must be devoted
to rest, aud so long as the great Chris
tian world is bent ON making SUNDAY
that day, it viii be social and econ
omic impossibility to destroy this re-
.isions character Of Sunday or to
change to another day"

The United States Government has
got to increase its revenue in some
way. One way would be to nut about
IA tariff of | J cents per pound on SUI
gar. and do away with the bounty
system. which is in direct conflict
with the principles of Democracy
There is no tax that would be so
equally divided among the people as
small tariff tax on sugar, and be-
sides it would make capital disposed
to invest in sugar manufacture, ana in
this way the producers of cane and
beet sugar.would oe increased.-Town
