DEAR ARGUS: In reply to the DEM

former communication on "Cost of
Woolgrowing' and slurring the item
of $50 per month for board of herder,
we beg leave to say that we are ready
to pull the quill right off the top OF
our ear and "fgure on it."
A sheepherder's month is thirty
days.
By "board," in the article on wool
growing, we consolidated everything
ordinarily supplied a herder in the
care of his flock, and think our esti-
mate would be generally so under

NIT the following summary of sup

not an elaborate bill of fare, and
possibly not such as the editor of the
Democrat is used to, it is reasonably

WASHINGTON. Aug. 0.-Representa-

Cannon says: Mr.. Cleveland, by his
estimates, asked congress to appropriate

appropriated for such service s49O,66s,

OOO.OOO less than the president ssked.
A comparative statement OF the approp-
riations made at this congress for the
fiscal year ending June 10, next. with
the appropriations made at the first and
second sessions Of the fifty-first, shows
that the appropriations this year are
greater by s27 .62s5S6 than those made
by the first session Of the fifty first or
Reed congress.
The appropriations made this year
are So. .S35 ,9S4 less than those made at
the second session OF the last, or fifty

cred by the item for pensions. There
was an appropriation this year for pen
sions 81, ,099, ,504 less than was approp-
rated last year.
1t will be noticed therefore that the
appropriations this year, excepting pen
sions, are greater than the appropriations
made last year by s63.515 The total

A Test Of Civilization

One Of the principal tests by which
we may estimate the degree OF civiliza-
tion to which q nation has attained, is
its treatment Of woman. When man
was a savage. woman was no more than
a companion animal. When he attained
to the stage of a barbarian. and had
enough intelligence to abandon caves
and build for himself dwelling. woman
became the household drudge, doing the
heavy labor Of the field also, ana being
a chattle. disrosable at the pleasure of
her lord or master. Among the Greeks,
the Romans and the Jews, her condition
was somewhat improved, but polygamy
was awful. The Teutonic nations OF the
nineteenth century have placed her on
a higher plane, and she is accorded a
respect and Difference that excites the
astonishment Of Orientals. among many
Of whom woman is treated as being
without a mind 10 be cultivated or q
soul to be saved. 1t is. however. in our
own country that woman has attained
the position Of the beloved and honored
queen. In truth it may be said that
among the better classes. all things ex-
ist for woman. The railroads, especially,
take every means to provide for her
safety and her comfort. and IL she is
travelling alone. great pains are taken to
insure her pleasant journey. In this
respect, The Burlington takes the
lead. and the Burlington Route is wide
ly known Tor the courtesy Of officials and

The trustees of the first, second and terminal mortgage bonds are made defendants in the matter. The application calls for the appointment of special master by Judge Colt tc hear the facts aud take testimony In the case. When he has done this he will report his findings to the judge, who will make the final decision in the matter.

sWEETLAND IS ARRESTED.

 A Policeman Met the Army on its
 Arrival in New York and the Leader
 Was Locked Up at the Fremont sta-
 tion House.
 NEW YORK, May s.-Two men called at police headquarters this afternoon and made application for 8 permit for parade of the sixty Coxeyltes who were expected to arrive here from Connecticut this even ing. The Coxsy men wanted to march down to the headquarters of the peoples party at 50 East Tenth street. Superin- tendent Byrnes refused the permit, ss the six hours' notice required by law had not been given. Sweetland arrived with his sixty men near One Hundred and Sixty fourth street this evening and was inter- cepted by 6 policeman, who asked him what this meant. Swestlsnd replied:
 'It means an addition to Coxey's army"
 Have you got permit to travel through the city in marching order with your meni" asked the officer.
 ''No. I have not," replied Sweetland. "I did not know 1t was necessary. I cent Mir. Connors, my advance representative, to the city early this morning to arrange for my arrival and reception. I had ar ranged to meet him at One Hundred and Twenty ninth street and Third avenue"
 'I cannot help your arrangements, 1" said the policeman, with your advance agent. As you have no permit you will have to go to the station house. So roll up your flags and come along"
 Sweetland turned over his men to the command of Lieutenant Timothy Whalen with instructions to break ranks and make their way into the city as ordinary, free Americans. He then accompanied the policeman. Lieutenant Whslen and the men came struggling into the city in small squads. Sweetlsnd was locked up in Fremont station house.
 As the men came struggling across Har- lem bridge, which those leading the van reached about o'clock, they were met by Captain Connors, who told them they were to rendezvous at the headquarters of the peoples psrty on East Tenth street.
 When the news was brought by the ear lisst arrivals that Sweetland had been ar rested, howl of indignation was uttered by the assemblsge. It was half-psst eight o'clock when the roll of the Ooxeyites was called at the headquarters. All were given @ supper made up largely of bread and butter and coffee and frankforts- It was eaten with keen relish. The msn were given sleeping accommodations at the same place. They expect to resume their march to the national capitol on Thursday.
 Sweetland was bailed out about mid night by D Rousseau, who owns the cleo tricsl works at Railroad avenue and One Hundred and Thirty eighth street. Sweet land and his bondsman left the station. house together.

Rx.Speaker Reed Gives His Views o1
 the Amended Tariff Bill - Will
 Hardly Tend to Restore Confidence
 -The Senate Finance Committed
 Will Bear Watching.
 WASHINGTON, May S.-Ex Speaker Reed makes the following criticism upon the amended tariff bill: The presentation by the senate finance committee of eighty one pages of amendments, apparently more than 400 In number, is 6 delicate compli- ment to MT. Wilson and the house of rep resentstives. It virtually says that the houae bi'l was right, except on 400 or 500 points, and that the senate committee, sf. ter months work, find 400 mistakes in their own bill.
 This will hardly tend to- restore confi- denoe in the country, especially as every amendment smacks of either prior ignor- sncs or present barter. It seems impossi- ble that a document so constructed as to show traffic in every item should be psf- mitted to see daylight in one batch. It would have been wiser to have let the matter come before the country item by item rather than asglomerate the dread full total in one bunch.
 Evidently 1t will be the duty of the san- ate to fully investigate these proposed amendments, for when @ committee of finance refuses hearings because 1t knows intuitively all things, bu. finds by some kind of back stairs influence that 1t has made 400 mistakes, 1t is evident that that committee will bear watching.
