From the foregoing 1t is seen that while there were 6. 6.75S applicants for license in 1892, the bounty was paid only to 3,4cl producers in 1893, of whom 2.817 made sugar from the maple sap. The bulk of the payments were made to the southern producers of cane sugar. The six beet sugar factories procured an average of nearly s9O, ,OO0 each, the 6S5 cane sugar producers averaged nearly sl4,0O0 each, the three sorghum producers averaged So, ,6O0, each, while the 2,sl7 makers of maple sugar got less than $22 each, but Vermont took more than half of the total maple sugar share, s3s. .225.23.

Trouble That Life Insurance Conn
 Panies Have with Small Policy
 Holders.
 From the New York suul
 ''It Is a mistake" |" said an officer of big insuraIcs company, "to suppose that the insurance conpsniss are slow about taking big risks on individuals. Ths contrary Is the fact. No insurance company prefers the small risks. It the co1pAny is sAtis- fed that the applicant is not sEindler it would rsther insure him for one hundred thousand dollars than for any sum below that figure. Of course hs might be run over and killed five minutes after the poll cy was written, tut the companies figure on all thoss things. Ths average man might say that one hundred thcusAnd dol lars worth Of Iisk oz a single life wss enormous, but thtre's more money in it thsn there is h one hundred one thousand dollar risks. If a company oould get enough one hundred thousand dollar risks It would make enormous profits. The ex- pense of writing 8 one thousand dollar policy Is slmost as great es the expense of writing the bigger one. l. costs ten dol lars to write a one thousand dollar policy. and only fifteen dollars to write enc hundred thousand dollar policy. Yet see what the premiums or the latter are com pared with those on the former.
 The cost of book-keep'ng on the small policies is out Of proportion tO the income derived from them Ton take a small paid up policy on enc thousand dollars that hss lapsed. That Is one of the most annoying things The insurance man en- counters The policy holder has Fsid in sixty-sevsn dollars, and gets paid up pol icy for sixty-two dollars under the rule that after three yesrs the policy cannot fsil altogether. The carrying of that small amount on cur books is Hn internal nuisance. Any company would rather give tha man sn tx.ension of three years on the original one th0ussnd dcllars than to have 10 carry that item Of sixty. two dollars on its books in3ehnitely.

A NATIONAL TOPIC.

N
 Philosophers, statesmen, yeomen, pie beians, aristocrats, men laden with dollars and the care of dollars and men whose sole ambition is to be burdened with dollars, be 1t paper currency or hard cash, have had the gold and silver question before their minds in the last six months as never be- fore in the nations history. More reams of paper have been written on the subject during this period than were ever used in preparing Yale prizs orstions and essays, and even the published articles on the sub ject must surpsss the fsbled mountains of rejected manuscripts in the editorial waste baskets of the lordly monthly magazines of the country. The tide of opinion has ct last set definitely and overwhelmingly in this country in favor of the ''gold cure" as related to national finances. Silver as basis for the circulating medium is ''not in it." Mexioo's deprecieted silver money Is pointed at as a glaring and convincing ob ject lesson. And Mexico's case is surely 8 warning, for, as said an ex-New Hsvsner who was recently here from O journey through that country, its silver dol lars count legs than halves when paying for anything that Is imported. Surely this is an age of object lessons in this free, great and glorious republic. If the present bad, inglorious depreciation of the white metal in comparison with the infex- ible, unvarying standard of gold, isn't con vincing, there must bs an obtuseness or blindness that Is incurable. For honest doubters there Is sympathy, but for owners of silver mines and their mouthpieces in Congress there Is no salvation at present in the view of the nation at large, and only fighting chance for redemption In 8 gent cultivation of their talents in other avenues of public endeavor. The nation has not yet been plunged into asanguinary conflict where gore runs bridle deep, nor has the east been scared out of it's boois. The east seems to have stood the panic re- son has been, as 1t were, bit of retribu- tive justice. The nations credit, after the bawlipg of the silver champions in Congress is over, will come forth unim- paired, and sound, ell-balsnced judg- ment will prevail in the end, but peace and prosperity and the revival of business,- the return of confidence to the myriad of American manufactories whose prosperity and in many instances their very life de- pends upon proteetion,-will only be as- sursd upon the basis of & we'll regulated protective tariff which secures work and a high standard of wages for American workingmen. The protective plank In the platform of the Republican party shiner more prominently and brilliantly than ever in this time of shut downs and lack of
 work for multitudes of men. It stands ss beacon light pointing out the true path to return to ''good times" If major. ity of the American workingmen want Democracy and free trade standard of
 low wages on the footing of the European
 toilers, then let them stick to the princi ples of the Democratic platform, for that
 Is where they will surely bs landed.
