AMONG FARMERS.

Should winter set in without rain there
will be great distress in this county for
lack OF water.
Dennis Sheehy OF Maple Grove has
sold his farm consisting OF 80 acres to
John Hogan. Mr.. Sheehy will continue
to reside for some time in Maple Grove.
And still the proofs roll in that Mani.
towoc county is prosperous. Stephen
Shunln OF Gibson brought 3 quantity
OF clover seed to the city this week which
he sold to Torrison & Co. and received for
his load the nice sum Of $3.50.
The action of the county board in de-
feating the resolution Bppropriating $50
for the farmers institute occasions con-
siderable surprise from the fact that a
large majority OF the board are farmers.
1t would seem likewise thet majority
OF the farmers OF the county would find
Manitowoc the most convenient assem-
bling point. What was it which prompt
ed the action?
B. Morris OF Centerville had a patch
OF land of one-half acre which had grown
into Canada thistles. So as TO fight the
thistles he decided to plant it to some
thing which would require cultivation
and consequently put in beans. From
the half acre he raised 20 bushels of beans
which he sold at 1.35 per bushel, thus
making S27 on what might be called an
abandoned piece of land.
The Smallsy Manufacturing Co. has
made Mapltowoc known throughout tie
country by means Of it's exhibit at the
Worlds Far. It has earned Its reward,
likewise, in increased trade and very fav-
orable mention by all the agricultural
papers throughout the country. And
now the announcement comes that it has
won a triple first premium viz: First
premium on its ensilage feed cutters;
first on its hand feed cutters and first on
its root cutters. That is glory enough
for one year and is worth at least $4,000
to the company. 1t must not be f,rgot-
ten that these awards were won in com.
petition with the world.

AN article in the June number o. The
Forum by Judge Cooley on the Hawaiian
question makes interesting reading at
this time. At that time there was no
reason for perverting the facts, and 1t is
reasonable to believe the distinguished
jurist would not misstate questions OF
facts to gain point. Although mention
of the interference of Minister Stevens is
Incidental to the line OF his discussion
the fact is stated unreservedly that the
revolution was successful because of the
presence of the United States marines
1t was given out by the parties who exc
cuted the coup d. etat that the people OF
the island favored the revolution, but
these very people asked that the q. S
marines be present to protect life and
property. The judge very pertinently
asks protection against whom?" It does
seem that it was protection Of themselves
from themselves if the islanders favored
the revolution as was claimed.

THERE is probability that congress at
its next session will provide for the i'm
position of an income tax. There can be
no doubt that the more direct tax is the
more just it will be and the more unpop-
ular. The trainers OF the constitution
evidently thought direct taxation unwise
and to be resorted to only on e1traordi-
nary occasions. II an income tax is to be
regarded as direct tax it will be unequal
in its operations ps it is the population
OF state, and not its wealth, which Is to
determine its proportionate share. Ne
vada would contribute but very little OF
the sum total raised by means of this tax.

The criticisms offered upon E. C. Wall
because OF his protesting against an n
crease OF the tax upon beer are wholly I'M
justitiable. Beer now pays tax o. one
dollar per barrel which sells for S6, thus
making a tax Of Is per cent. Besides this
the retail dealer pays government and
local tax. 1t would seem that what
beer pays now Is much beyond what it in
justice should if its mapufacture at all is
to be recognized. 1t would be far more
creditable for the government TO prohibit
its manufacture than to recognize it and
then seek to destroy it by taxation. II it
is move In the interests of temperance
there are many malt and distilled liquids
which should be dealt with before beer Is
reached.
