k7MC AHAutAS1l 0y01&ANH1s
The publication of druggists reports
in North Dakota show that that state has
suffered an epidemic of nearly every ma
lady known to mankind and is probably
still suffering. The following from tile
Bismarck Tribune aptly illustrates the
abuse of the affidavit system OF dispens-
ing liquor in some instances in that
state, and is Of some special interest as
showing the amount Of Affections one poor
man bore up under with with the aid Of
wliskey:
On Monday, Oct. 2d, j. 7. Morgan OBJ
tanned one-half pint of whiskey for rheu-
matism. This stimulent scenes to have
been to much for him, for the day follow
ing he got another half pint for the
cramps. No sooner had he banished the
cramps by the use Of wliskey-than his
old enemy, rheumatism, appeared again,
so on the 4th, he got s ounces OF whisky
for rheumatism. He wasn't able to get
out the 5th, but on the 9th. he came a
running-calling three times early in
the day Tor stomach difficulty, later for
dysentary, and finally for cranps-a quart
for the first two complaints, and 8 oun-
ces for the later. On the eth he had the
collie, which seems to have lasted for q
couple Of days. probably fell in with a
friend similarly effected, or possibly went
over to Moorllead put on Tuesday diar-
rllea got him again, and he got six oun-
ces. I'm Wednesday rhuemRtisnl troubled
him and he got 8 ounces. Thursday an
unlocked for ailment took possession of
him. Being diagnosed, it was declared
to be neuralgia. and Morgan tried little
whisEey-fye ounces. Cramps took
possession of him again or the 18th, but
required only five ounces Of chain light
ming this time. Saturday, the l4tl,,
must have been a stormy possible
the walks were slippery and he may
have fallen and sprained joint some-
where about his body. Anyhow he got
5 ounces Of whisky for liniment. He
was evidently too lame to get out on Sun
day. but he took cold just tho same and
Monday obtained half pint of plain
every day cold cure. Tuesday ounces
for rheumatism, and Wednesday genuine
stomach ache induced him to try another
half pint. On the 10th for liniment. on
the goth for rheumatism and on the 2lst
for colds. His throat bothered him on the
25th, and lie got 12 ounces. rather a larger
dose than usual. His throat bothered
him again the next day and lie had to
have six ounces for gargle. He seems
to have strained himself somehow, for on
the same day he got 8 ounces more for
inflammation. On the 2sth rheumatism
had to be treated in the morning and
collie in the afternoon.

SOLID EiRures.

Sioux Falls Argus Leader:-A great
deal is being said just now about the
prostration to the industries Of the coun-
try which would come from q lowering
OF the tariff duties. To the political
economist this claim is absurd. But 1t
ought to be equally absurd also to all
who examine the following figures:
In 1885 the Bureau of Statistics Mt
Washington made thorough canvass of
all the people in the country engaged in
gainful occupations and also of all those
engaged in occupations which can and
those which cannot be subjected to for
eign competition. 1t found that the
whole number engaged in gainful occu-
pations was 1899, ,O99, divided as follows:
Agriculture 7,670.4a3. manufactures.
mechanics and mining 3,s37,ll2, pro-
fessiOnal and personal 4,1Tl,23S, trade
and transportation 1,Sl0.255. Leaving
out of account the last two classes which
cannot of course be directly protected,
the statisticians found that the people
engaged in gainful occupations which
cannot be subjected to foreign COM
petition number 16,564.9l4 and those
which can be so subjected number S27 1874.
That is to say all the people who could
under absolute free trade be brought in
to competition at home with foreign
producers are only 40 per cent OF oil the
working population.
At the same time Professor Simon
Newcomb of tho government naval
observatory independently examined the
field and he found that the number sub
ject to foreign competition was 905,5S5
or 5.2 per cent. These figures are COM
piled by two statistical authorities of
unimpeachable impartiality and scientif-
ic reliability. While their percentages
differ slightly they are practically to-
gether and it may be taken as a fact That
the protected industries of the country
directly employ only 5 per cent OF the
working population. All people, pro-
tectionists as well as free traders, admit
that the tariff is In effect a bounty paid
by the non-protectel to the protected to
enable the latter to continue business.
Ninety-five per cent Of the working peo-
pie OF the land are therefore compelled to
pay 5 per cent bonus to keep them at
work. The exports on both sides agree
that the Mckinley law imposes an
average duty OF Sc per cent on all Imports.
Evei admitting for argument that this
is evenly divided between consumer and
producer, and that fact could be ty no
means substantiate. the 95 per cent pay
to the per cent an average bonus OF 26
per cent on all the goods produced by the
latter.
Does anyone believe that this can hem
eft the nation at large? Does anyone
believe that the five per cent can confer
any benefit sufficiently large torepay the
ninety-fve per cent for this great bonus? ?
1t is easy to show that the great majority
of protected industries could successfully
maintain themselves in free competition
with the world. But suppose they
couldn't, would not the ninety-fiye per
cent who receive no governmental benefit
be better off il they saved the twenty-six
per cent bonus even though the five per
cent were driven to the wall?

ago 1t was announced that the Phila
aelphis was to leave here, and about the
same time the captain of the British ship
Champion stated that his vessel was about
30 leave on . two weeks cruise, ostensibly
60 look over the route of the proposed
Pacific cable. On the day following this
announcement petition was circulated
BY the British residents asking that the
Champion remain.
The petitioners professed to be In fear Of
trouble IL they were left without armed
protection. The Champions commander
agreed TO remain In port. whereupon Ad-
miral Walker announced that he had
changed his mind about sailing with the
Philadelphia Snd that he, too, would TO-
main in port. This unexpected change in
Che plans Of the naval commanders caused
unusual comment. The Royalists pro-
fessed to believe that had the Philadelphia
left, there would have been an uprising
