In the interest of the public,
which is greatly Inconvenience,
wish to call the attention of the
mayor and council to two things
which are positive nuIsanCes: LIST,
The blocking up the sidewalks on
both side of SOledad street by
crowds of men to such an extent as
to almost render it impossible even
to elbow ones way through these
crowds. Secondly, the hitching OF
horses and vehicles OF all sorts on
both sides OF the street, for hours
together. Soledad is a narrow
street and it has street car track
along it, so that these horses and
vehicles, hitched on both sides, eff
fectually blocks up the street. An
ordinance should prohibit the
hitching of horses and vehicles on
that portion of Soledad between
Houston and Commerce, and the
police should make the crowds on
the street "move on" as is done in
other cities. NERBUM SAP.

Baron de Courbel, the new
French am bassador to London, is
not noble by birth, but by merit.
His father was a collector in the
little country town of Courcel, who
transacted much Of the family
business of the Talleys and Peri
cords. The son was fortunate
enough when young man to gain
the patronage of the great chief of
that house, and accompanied him
to London on a diplomatic mis-
sion. Thus he enjoyed the best di-
plomatic schooling and when he
was appointed as French ambas-
sador in Berlin, one of the first
visits he paid was to the Prussian
representatives Of the Talleyrand
family, whose marriage settlement
he reminded him, had been draw n
up by his father. The Berlin post
is the most delicate in all the dip
lomatic service of France, but Bar
on de Courcel was a complete sue
cess in the German capital. Bis
marck had the highest opinion Of
his ability; more recently the
Baron earned fresh distinction as
the president OF the Behring Sea
Arbitration Tribunal, which sat in
Paris. Although he has been sup
posed not to love this country over
much, he displayed on that occa-
sion an impartiality which quite
satisfied the English representa-
tives. He has this additional
claim to our hospitable doors, that
he speaks English perfectly, and is
very agreeable in society. He has
been a Chevalier of the Legion OF
Honour.

The absurdity is In the writer of

THE FARMERS EGGS.
HOW The M,KlNLEY TARIFF HAS EN-
RlcHsD HIS BASKET.

Large Importations of Foreign Eggs Were
Checked - Over Sc, 600 Saved to
American Producers Yearly-Eggs From
All Parts of the World.
Produce from foreign farms is to be
admitted free of duty into the United
States, causing greater competition, more
stuff in the markets and consequently
lower prices. Manufactured goods from
foreign countries are to come in greater
quantities, and many of our mills must
be closed or run on part time. This will
lessen the demand for farm produce.
The people who have been working in
the mills will have less money to spend,
and with the markets glutted with for
eign farm stuffs prices will be very low.
The American farmer must be prepared.
Let us first take a look into his egg
basket. Good eggs, fresh from the farm,
have been selling during the last three
or four years, until the fear of free trade
recently settled upon the country, for
much more money than they brought five
and ten years ago. There was a reason
for this, and farmers should ponder over
the reason. The free trade people say
that farmers have not received any pro-
lection from the Mckinley tariff. We
say they have, and we are going to show
the farmers how they were protected.
why there was a better demand for their
eggs and why they were sold for higher
prices.
Let us look back for a period of 10
years-from 1888 to 1893. Between 1888
and 1890 there was no tariff upon eggs.
The hen product of the American farmer,
raised by the American farmers wife,
was sold in the American markets in
open competition with the eggs laid by
hens in Canada, in Austria, Belgium,
China, Denmark, France, Germany, Eng
land, Scotland, Italy, Japan, Mexico, the
Netherlands and Cuba. This will be
surprise to many farmers, but it is q
fact nevertheless.
In case there should be any doubt
about the matter we give for a year be
fore the Mckinley tariff put any duty
upon eggs to protect the American farm
er the imports of eggs by countries dur
ing the year ending June 80, 1889:

New Atlantic Cable.

A new telegraph cable is now
being laid from Waterv.lle, Ireland,
to Novia Scotia. The entire cable
will be about 1000 miles long. The
Faraday, not being large enough to
carry the whole cable, will drop the
shore sections, about 500 miles,
fret, and then lay the deep sea
cable, which is smaller than the
shore ends. The cable is guaranteed
to afford 33s per cent improvement
in speed over the other cables in use
by The Commercial Company. This

cents per dozen on foreign eggs so as to
protect the farmers egg basket. ana tnis
protection began on Oct. 8, 1890. IL
made a difference at once. we
6nd that we imported nearly soo,ooo
dozen foreign eggs less that year than In
1889. when there was no protection. But
look back al the figures for the next
three ~years-for 1891, 1892 n 1898. In
1891 we bought nearly 7,0O0,0U dozen
foreign eggs less than in 1890 even,
nearly II, 900, 900 dozen less in le92, ano
nearly 10, 200, 900 dozen less IN 1898.
1t is thus clear that the longer we a
protection, the better it was for the
American farmers egg basket. Each sue
ceeding year we bought fewer foreign
ggs In 1898 we paid to foreign farmers
less than S4O0. 900, and we used to pay
over s., SOC, 600 every year for foreign
eggs when there was no protection. The
result was that we only bought eggs,
and not nearly so many Of them, from
Canada, and from China for the Chinese
Ia California. But we bought none from
Austria or Belgium, France, Germany,
England, Scotland, Italy or the Neither
lands. Protection kept the European
eggs exclusively out of the country, and
almost entirely gave the American mar
ket to American farmers.
Most of the foreign eggs that we have
imported came from Canada, and now
that there is to be no more protection
for American eggs we must again expect
to pay out millions of dollars every year
for foreign eggs. 1t may be asked why
the American farmers cannot sell their
eggs in Canada. There are two reasons
why they cannot. There are but half a
dozen small markets in that country, with
atotal population only one-fourth as large
as New York city. This is one reason.
The other reason is that Canada pro-
tects her farmers by a tax of 5 cents per
dozen upon American eggs, so as to pre-
vent American farmers from selling
there. The Mckinley tariff protected
our farmers, but the free trade Wilson
tariff does not. The free trade tariff
1 throws the American markets open free
to tho Canadian farmers, while the Ca
nadians tax the American farmers. The
Canadians protect themselves, but the
Wilson bill of the Democratic party will
not protect the American farmers egg
basket. CHARLES K. BUCKLAND.

This is a remarkable exhibit. We find
during the eight years, from 1893 to 1890.
when we had free trade in eggs, that we
imported on an average more than u.s.
500.0 600 dozen eggs every year; over 1884,

This was the result of free trade in
eggs. 1t was quite important. In that
one year alone-1SS9-we bought from
foreign countries almost 16, 000, 900 dozen
eggs and paid to foreign farmers almost
Q ,420, 900. This represented over Is
cents for each dozen of the foreign eggs.
This money might much better have
been paid to American farmers and given
to their wives and daughters, who take
care of the poultry, instead of sending it
to Europe, to Canada, to Mexico or to
China. Such a large quantity, nearly
10000, 900 dozen of eggs in a year, over
1888, 900 dozen a month, over 100000
dozen a week. nearly 10000 dozen of for
eign eggs a day in our markets, had a
visible effect upon our supply. 1t glutted
our markets and cheapened the price for
American eggs.
But it is not only the farmers who are
the losers. They must remember that,
too, because it is important. Where
most of the foreign eggs are received and
sold there must be less demand for
American eggs, and farmers living nea
those markets must sell their eggs else
where. This forces an extra supply into
other towns. With a large lot of for
eign eggs in the markets of New York
and Boston, the farmers of New York
state and of Massachusetts, must sell in
some other state farther west or south
into Pennsylvania, for instance. Then
the Pennsylvania farmer is forced to sell
some of his eggs in Ohio, and the Ohio
man has to go to Chicago, and the Hi
nois farmer gets into the market of the
Nebraska man.
This is how free trade in eggs works.
1t creates too large a supply in some
markets, and our farmers have to find
other markets where there are no for
eign eggs. and thus compete Nth one an
other.
Let us now see to what extent the Nc
Kinley tariff, by putting a duty on eggs,
has protected the American farmers egg
basket, whether or not it checked the
importation Of foreign eggs. Here are
the figures for IL years:
