WOOD PULP AND PRINT
PAPER,

The Minneapolis Tribune has a cock
and-bull editorial on the paper and pulp
schedule of the tariff bill in which it
tells gruesome story, or repeats one
told elsewhere, about pulp and paper
trust having the inevitable Whitney at
its head, with Lamont and the presi-
dent as stockholders. which operates
mills in the Fox river valley in Wiscon-
sin. and which has taken care to see
that wood pulp and paper are sufficient
ly protected in the tariff bill. There is
the usual sheer at Democratic promise
and performance, and the character
isttcally mendacious insinuation that
the president is teatnering his own nest
at the expense both of his political
principles and the dear public who
make use Of pulp and paper. We heard
the same yarn when the coal schedule
was under the hammer, in which the
Whitney syndicate was pictured as op-
Grating in Nova Scotia.
The paper and pulp schedule has not
yet been reached by the senate, and
what they will do with the house sched-
ule the good Lord only knows, and all
others can only guess, but it is generally
understood that the president is fully as
disguised with what that wonderful
body has already done with the bill as
are the rest of the Democrats of the
country. If it Is true that the original
Wilson bill embodied what the presi-
dent deemed the best present tariff bill,
an examination of its paper schedule
and comparison of it with prior scned-
ules gives very emphatic lie to the
story which meets the editorial ap-
prevail of the Tribune.
The act of 1883 put tax of 10 per
cent on imports Of wood pulp. The act
of 1890, the Mckinley act, changed the
ad valorem to a specific duty ranging
from 81. so a ton on mechanically ground
pulp to Sc ton on unbleached aud 81
ton ON bleached chemical pulp. The
I'D valorem equivalents Of this were Is,
10 and 1O.5 per cent respectively. The

frequently until II or IL at night. Every
detail of the business is closely scruti-

attends to all the advertising.
The magnitude of this latter feature
alone can be better appreciated when it
is stated that Nine. Tale's advertising

any account in the United States where

the weekly and monthly publications.

THE CITY DEBT.

The Pioneer Press seems to be quite
disturbed over The fact brought out by
the GLOBE that Comptroller McCardy
furnished the figures concerning the
city debt which the mayor used in his
message. Here is its brilliant denial:
..I1et McCardy) furnished the items of
all the different kinds of outstanding
city obligations. INCLuRING THE TAX
CERTIFICATES. But heidid not add the
latter into the amount of the public
this"
Now will the p. P. stand up and
answer few questions?
Is not an outstanding city obliga-
ton" debt?
If there are different kinds of out
standing city obligations" why should
one kind" be called debt and the other
moi?
Ii MIR. McCardy ''included the tax
levy certificates" in the figures given
Mayor Smith, did he not concede that
they formed one of the "kinds" of ''out-
standing city obligations.
1t McCardy did not add one of the
"kinds Of outstanding city obligations"
into the amount of the public debt, /"
does it follow that the "kind" of debt he
omits is not debt?
Is tlIe city debt composed of what the
city actually owes, or what Mr.. Nc
Cardy, according to his within, adds into
the column of figures he calls the debt?
Ii McCardy can raise or diminish the
city debt by addition or satisfaction
why not have him substract the whole
debt?
Ii the city gives a bond for twenty
years and note for six or twelve
months is not the note debt as much
as the bond?
Ii tax certificates do not make debt
because they are short time city notes.
why not take up all our bonds with tax
certificates, and have no debt at all?
If the comptroller is justified in lying
about the city debt to the extent of
S2.00O.000 in tax certificates, would it
not be just as correct to issue additional
tax certificates and lie IS. 600, 900 more,
by saying there is no city debt what
ever?
In another part of the article from
which we have quoted the P. P says
that McCardy explained ''that the tax
certificates for 1893 had been provided
Tor: that is, that they would be paid out
OF the tax receipts OF 1884,
Stand up once more, p. P.
If a corporation gives its note and pro-
vides the means to pay it. does it cease
to owe the debt before it has actually
paid the note?
If providing the means to pay note
settles the debt. why not have Mr.. Nc
Cardy repudia.e all the outstanding
notes of the city because he has ar
ranged to get the money to meet them
when due?
Between the P. P. and McCardy the
city debt ought to be sponged off the
slate before shutdown.

had, with singular inconsistency, pat
the product Of labor on the tax list and
left labor itself on the free list. En-
ployers in the lumber, as in all other in
dustrles, bought their labor in free
trade market and sold the product of
their free labor in a carefully and suffi-
GENTLY protected market. Wages did
not fall, therefore, under the reduction
of the Mckinley act, because they were
already 0na levelfiXed by free compe-
titien. This will be the case now.
Wages will be controlled by the same
operative causes that have always pre-
vailed under protection. and when two
men are after the one job wages will be
low, and when two jobs are after the
one man they will be high. and that is
all there is to it.

PITTsBURG. Pa, May a5. 1884,
Hon. lgnatius Donnelly. ST. Paul,
MIMI: have laid down the Repre-
sentative" after reading your leading
articles signed Il. d." under headings
of "PaternaliSm' and ''Woif Bounties' -
L must confess that | am bewildered
l am at a loss to account for the pro-
duction (from the brain and pen of a
man of your seeming ability and sim
certify. as evidenced in your debate
with Mr.. SimmS) of such mass of
glazing absurdities. I confess to such
feeling. mingled with disgust and
contemplate units me to formulate a re-
ply that would tend to convince you of
your absurd ideas of the duties of gov
eminent to the people.
Take your attempt to ridicule the
writer in the st. Paul GLOBE article on
Paternalism, in which you advise the
GLOBE to remove "Dahomeny." You
quote from the GLOBE two incidents,
one of two children committing suicide
to relieve their mother of their support :;
the other suicide of an editor, teacher
and writer, who hangs himself with 81
cents in his pocket, etc. Then your
very touching little stories of the rab-
bit and rattle snakes. and money
lenders. etc.-Mr. Donnelly, will you
allow me, man who is himself Dor
rover, and not money lender, to say
to you in all sincerity. that at the age of
three score years. based upon my own
experience, observation and study, in
my opinion, of all the evils, sufferings
and distress that the money lenders
have entailed upon the borrowers, they
are small compared with the evils and
logical effect produced upon the very
class for whose benefits they are pro-
fessedly intended, as is the teaching
ineulcated) in the two articles under
consideration. If it were possible for
me to use any arguments to convince
you of the truth of this statement, l
would gladly do so. but l seem to be
forestaIled from making any effort to
prove to you that this is so. from the
conviction that man of your sensibil-
bility must be fully persuaded of the
facts Yourself. This forces the convic-
ton home to my mind that you are sim.
ply playing upon the ignorant preju.
dlceS OF your readers for the doodle"
there is in it.
This precludes the idea of any effort
whatever to convince man against his
will, especially if that will is governed
by spirit of avarice. Let me ask you

SECRETARY MORTON has happy
faculty OF putting SO sharp point to

is not with him in his alteration of sill
yer.. The secretary puts the silver
Question tersely thus: II cannot see
how the American people will find it
easier to secure silver when they desire
itat Sl.29 than they can now at 81 cents
an ounce. The great misfortune among
our Populist friends is that they too
often talk about per capita circulation
when they are thinking of per capita
distribution. They seem to confound
the universal desire for more money
with demand for more money. The
former seems common to all humanity
the latter can only be made by, those
who have something of value which
they wish to exchange for money. The
man who sells products buys money,
and the man who buys products sells
money, and each man desires the best
