A Pointer.

There is a practical as well as polit-
ical recognition of the value of tariff re-
form on the part Of the astute people Of
New England in the effort of its capital
lists to obtain control of the coal proper
ties in Nova Scotia. They are so well
satisfied that our customs taxation Of
raw materials will be abandoned that
they are substantially betting thei1
money on the eventuality. With chear
coal and iron ore assured to them, the
abandoned furnaces in the east might re-
light their fires.
The abolition of coal tariffs on the
part of the United States and of Canada
would not be the one sided transaction
which the opponents of such Legislation
affect to believe. The loss of a market
for soft coal in New England, if thai
should result, would be made good by
the gain of new markets in lower Can
ada, whose natural source of supply i.
from the coal bearing regions in the
United States adjacent to the lakes.
It is a pleasure to note the alacrity
with which farseeing business men ars
preparing to adjust their business to the
promises set forth in the Democratic
platform, upon the faith Of which thai
party has been brought back to power
With the tariff reformed, the navigation
laws repealed and readjustment Of the
financial policy of the government with
a view to the encouragement rather thar
the embarrassment Of the business of the
whole country, nothing could prevent
the United States from taking the frst
place among the nations in the race fol
industrial and commercial supremacy.

Pittsburg Capitalists Have Become Inter

PTTTsBURG, March IA project, hav-
ing for its object the construction and
equipment with private capital the long
talked of ship canal between Lake Erie
and the Ohio river, is receiving the seri-
rious consideration of well known local
capitalists as well as financiers from
other large business centers. The first
practical move toward carrying out this
immense project will be started March
20 at meeting held in the chamber of
commerce rooms. There will be pres
ent at this meeting many of the finan-
ciers who have expressed willingness
TO invest in the enterprise, and the
probability is that at the meeting the
preliminary steps toward the organiza-
ton of the company will be taken.
The enterprise will involve the expen-
diture of $.7,000,0O0. Two routes for
the canal have been surveyed by the
authority of the state, but the apathy
and indifference of the legislature, be-
yond the point Of favorable recommen-
dation has led those who have foreseen
the great advantages of such water
way between the great lakes and the
gulf of Mexico to the organization OF a
private corporation, concerning which
much encouragement is already at
hand.

Protsc,Irs I,arbnrl.m In Germany.

The wise efforts of Chancellor Caprivi
and of the ministers Of the car to miti-
gate the tariff systems Of their respect
i've countries by means Of commercial
treaty are threatened with defeat by the
agrarian interests of Germany. 1t is a
fact that Germany is incapable Of pro-
ducing sufficient bread and meat for her
teeming millions, and hence the duties
on the necessaries of living are griev-
ous burden to the German masses. The
popular discontents caused by this sys-
tenn have much to do in recruiting the
ranks of the socialists and other enemies
of the German government. If the corn
laws Of Germany should be moderated,
Russia in ordinary seasons would be able
to supply the German people with an
abundance of cheap food.
But an agricultural congress now in
session in Berlin and composed of dele
gates from all portions Of the empire
has sent deputation to Emperor Will
liam with protest against a CONNER
cial treaty that would bring Russian
products into competition with the prod
ucts of Germany. The evasive answer
of the emperor indicates that he is by nc
means convinced of the truth of the as
sertion that this treaty would ruin the
German farmers, much as he may feel
the weight of the political influence Of
the agricultural interests. He very
plainly intimated to the deputation that
the internal peace of the empire is quite
as necessary to agricultural prosperity
as are high duties on wheat and pork.
While reduced duties would give the
Germans cheaper food, and thus greatly
repress the hostility to the government,
Russia would afford large market fol-
many German manufactures Notwith-
standing the enormous duties on agricul-
tural implements, Russian manufactur'
ers are unable to meet the scanty home
demand, which is supplied by Germany
and England and to a small extent by
the United States. From the prohibitory
duties the manufacturers of Russia, who
are mostly foreigners, realize enormous
profits, mainly at the expense of the ag
ricultural interests. Secure in their pro
lection against foreign competition, the
manufacturers at the same time neglect
all improvements in production.
In view Of these considerations tht
Russian government, to whom the agri
cultural interests exceed all others in i'm
portance, has readily entered into thu
negotiation Of a commercial treaty will
Germany to provide for lower duties
upon German manufactures and upo1
Russian breadstuffs and provisions. Th'
advantage of such an arrangement tt
both countries is manifest, but class in
terests in Germany may prove NOR,
powerful than considerations for th'
general welfare. In this political juno
ture the votes Of the agrarian represent
atives in the reichstag are needed by
the government for the army bill. Thi
question once settled, Chancellor Capriv
could deal more resolutely with th'
duties on bread and meat. But with tn,
agrarian interests pressing him on on
side and the socialists pressing him OF
the other he is obliged to proceed will
