SOME CHEAPESED NEcEssARrEs.

MS - ING "ol tue NeW OTk
Herald, one of the most bitter op-
ponents of the new tariff bill, is
compelled to speak of it since its
enactment into a law::-
Among the benefits of the new
tariff law is the reduction in duties
on hats, fiannels, shawls, and blank
cts. These necessaries of life were
enormously taxed under the Nc
kinley act. Cheap foreign fan
nels, hats, shawls and blankets
were practically prohibited. the tax
on them being heavier, according
to their value, than the tax on the
Emore expansive articles Of thessme
classes.
In 1898 the tax on fiannels valued
at 30 cents pound was SIS per cent.
Only $50 worth of these cheap goods
was imported. Flannels worth on
the average 80 cents a pound paid q
tax at the rate of 1884 per cent.
The value of the imports of these
flannels in that year was 1851. The
tax on fannels at 4s cents was 1881
per cent. Flannels worth 95 cents
pound paid tax of 964 per cent.
and the imports were worth s75,-
343.
The cheapest blankets, worth 80.
"a and 4S cents pound, paid taxes
at the rates of SS4, 100 and 1O4 per
cent. respectively. Blankets worth
95 cents paid tax rate of 81 per
cent.
The cheapest shawls imported,
worth 35 cents pound, were taxed
at 1904 per cent. the dearest, worth
s1.14, paid sst per cent.
The tax on the cheapest hats was
Sc, 1864 and l044 per cent. Ofthe
cheapest only $5.35 worth was i'm
ported in 1898, and on these tax
of s4.5s was paid. The dearest
hats paid a tax of s74 per cent.
This inequality of taxation was
due to the specific duty on the
pound. The Mckinley tax on these
articles was mixed, part specific and
part ad valorem. For example, the
tax on the cheppest shawls import
ed was 3s4 cents q pound and 40
per cent. on the value. The tax on
the high priced shawls was A cents
a pound and so per cent. The very
cheapest shawls were absolutely
prohibited by the Mckinley act.
The tax on shawls worth 35 cents
pound was heavier in proportion to
their value than the tax on shawls
worth s1.14 a pound.
The new law which goes into ef-
feet January 1st, 1895, as to wool
len goods, corrects this inequality.
The duty on these articles is based
entirely Oh their value. Under the
new law hats, shawls, Aannels and
blankets that cost the most will pay
the highest rates of duty. The
cheapest will be taxed at 25 per
cent, the next at 30 per cent. and
the dearest at 35 per cent. and 40
per cent.
Under the old law a cheap shawl
bought in Germany for so cents
would have cost 1925 with the
duties added. Under the new law
it will cost 67t cents, or little
more than one-half.

of Cards.

Yesterday quarrel over a game OF
cards at Odous' winery, near Spsdra.
resulted in TITO killing of a Mexican
called Christobal, and the probably
fatal stabbing of Frenchman known
as Charley.
The men we're friendly at first, but
there was some squabbe over gallon
OF wine, and from words they came to
blows. There was regular fisticuff
fight. in which the com batants edged
out of doors and rolled around on the
ground, filling the air with opprobious
epithets. Both were pretty e-aiu nm.
ished, and the fight ended tor the time
being.
The quarrel was renewed again, and
Christobal got the Frenchman down
and stabbed him in the abdomen, in.
fiicting a terrible wound. Christobal
ran into the winery and WAS followed by
the wounded man. who pulled reyol.
YER ard shot Christobal. The wound
proved to be fatal one, and the Mexi-
can died in little while.
After shooting, Charley the French
man collapsed, and it was found that
his injuries are very serious, and no,
much hope was felt last night that he
would live.
Coroner Gates was notified, and placed
the matter in the hands of the local JUS
tlce OF the peace, with directions to hin
to hold the inquest last night.

Among the offenses covered by the min

down the rate OF wage OF its own motion

This means increasing tumult

has been the boast of the apostles of the
law that every wrong must have a
remedy. But experience is showing US
that under existing industrial conditions
and the combination OF capital, the law
provides no remedy to labor against en-
croachment upon its right to a fair
share OF the wealth it creates. Either
we must rectiiy this wrong by supply
ing q lawful remedy to which labor can
appeal, or there will be no peace in the
