THE TWO TARIFF RILLS.

We devote the reading matter space on
the outside Of to-day's INDICATOR to a
comparative list of the tariff tax under the
Mckinley bill aud under the new Demo-
cratic tariff bill. As that portion of the
paper generally contains reading more suit
able to the ladies than to the politicians.
some of our readers may think the change
is made to rather dry reading. But there
are none to whom the new tariff bill is
more important than the women of this
country. It creates almost a revolution
in the prices of their clothing, and anything
about it ought to he as interesting to them
as to the men.
We publish it for another reason, and
that is that when people talk about the
merits of a law they ought to have a fair
opportunity to inform themselves before
talking. The list we give is official and
may be relied on. 1t is a record OF the first
serious break made III the high protection
system that has dosu, ated the people OF
this country for 1t years, and should be
studied.

A CHINESE BULL RUN.

If the accounts of the japanese victory
at Ping Yang in Korea, at daylight last
Saturday morning are correct. the Chinese
have had regular Bull Run. The japanese
General seems to have performed regular
Stonewall Jackson feat. He amused them
by diminishing in their front two days, and
then at dawn of the third appeared in full
force in their rear. The figures, however,
are truly oriental in their characteristic
Japanese claiming, with only loss Of
thirty killed, to have slain $500 Chinese,
wounded about 10000 and captured very
nearly the whole army Of 10000. II the
victory is as complete as it is represented,
Pekin, the capital of China, is in danger,
but those who remember that after the
"Bull Run" in Virginia, numbers won at
last, will not be SO hopeful for the japanese
as they seem to be for themselves.

At SEA.

The Republicans seem to be badly at sea
in this campaign. Hon. Jacob Yost is
canvassing the Virginia Tenth district
with laudations of the Mckinley bill, lam
entations over it's repeal, and promises that
it's ssblessings'' will lie restored if the Re
publicans are returned to power. In Hi
nois Senator CuiIom opened his campaign
last week in a speech protesting that the
Republicans have no idea of restoring the
Mckinley bill if they are returned to pow
CT, but Oh the contrary will, if given the
chance, have a new revision OF the tariff
beginning by reducing the tax on fifty-one
different articles below what it is in the
Democratic tariff Till. Mr.. CUllom under
stands the way the popular wind is blow
ing; Mr.. Y ost does not. 1t is as absolute
" impossible for the Republicans to carry
the next House of Representatives on a
promise, expressed OF implied, that the Me
Kinley bill shall be re-enacted, as it would
be to elect a legislature in Virginia on the
promise to False tue land tax from 40 cents
to 81 on the 500. The people know more
now Of tariff taxation and what it costs
them in dollars and cents, than they ever
knew in the history Of this country, and

The Key of the Maine Election.

(From the New York Herald, Sept 12th.)
But the apparent unanimity of Monday
vote-by which solid Republican State Sen
ate is returned, affords unique object lesson
of marvellous interest. No wonder if any
New England State should go solidly against
the Wilson tariff reform and for a revival OF
McKinleyism. For thirty-tWo years all tariff
legislation has been shaped especially for the
enrichment of New England at the expense
of almost every other section of the country.
The census statistics show that between 1880
and 1890, the wealth of New England in
creased S01 ,oGO, 900. But in the same period
the aggregate increase Of wealth Of New Jer-
sey, Indiana, South Carolina, Iowa, Alabama
and Nebraska was Gin all these States) only
S514 600 900, despite the fact that the popula-
ton of these states sums up more than twice
of all New England States. While the
wealth of Maine increased $13, $50, 3S5, the
wealth of West Virginia and Maryland
each increased only sS1 100000 There is
nothing strange, therefore, that highly
protected" New England State, which has
so long reaped annually mary millions OF
dollars exacted from less favored sister States
should be solid against progressive tariff
reform, which would equalize burdens and
gradually put an end to the stupendous rob
berry Of tariff taxation.

Feeding Wheat to Stock.
SOME INTERESTING EXPERIENCES IN TT

SOME INTERESTING EXPERIENCES IN IT,
A great deal of wheat was fed to cattle anc
hogs last year, but as such use of wheat was
regarded as exceptionable. little or no pains
was taken to note the comparative results.
AS a rule, however, the use of wheat was
deemed satisfactory at last years prices. The
Kansas State Agricultural Department has
recently set on foot an official investiga ton on
the subject Of wheat feeding. 1t is proposed
to show the quantity of wheat fed to farm an
imals iu Kansas last year and its proportion
of the entire crop, the numbnr of pounds of
live pork returned per bushel of wheat con-
sumed, its value as compared with corn, and
the cost per bu-hel of raising wheat and put
ting it in the bin when the yield is ten, fifteen
twenty, twenty-five, thirty and thirty-fv
bushels per acre respectively. This informa-
ton will be a matter of general interest.
(From the last Circular of the U. S. Depart
ment of Agricultural
"Wben wheat and corn are the same price
per bushel, it is preferable to feed wheat and
sell corn. First, because wheat weighs seven
per cent per bushel heavier than corn; Sc

his speeches in the House last winter were

THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE IN

It would be hard. we expect, for q Dem
crat-that is to say man who holds to
Democratic faith on public policies and
who understands the principles OF Democ-
racy-to withhold his vote from MI.
Tucker, the nominee OF his party i'll this

Whatever else Mr.. Tucker may have
been in his five years in congress, he has
certainly been Democrat of Democrats.
He has held well to the side of the
people. The bill which he framed doing
away with Federal interference with cleo
tions; the other bill which he framed max
ing U. s. Senators elective by the people
the two most prominent incidents of his
congressional life were essentially measures
of the people, The Wilson bill which was
another measure for and OF the people, re-
ceived his vote and support. Ills support
of the bill removing the tax from State
Banks was another peoples MEASURE
No man that we know of from the South

years attained the, prominence in the
House that Mr.. Tucker has achieved, anc
certainly no man has in his official position.

firing and unf. gging personal service. In
this last respect we know of no man, barr

Democratic idea that has been supreme IN

It is the idea that animates every individu

many good Democrats who have been active
in elections and see others get the recog,
milton that they thought they themselves
ought to have, get pretty warm over it and
say some hasty things, but it doesn t affect
their votes when election day comes. The
number of Democrats in this section who
have deserted from their party to get al
office, are very few indeed, and the number
who are ready to desert it because they
didn't get one are still fewer. There are
no truer Democrats to lie found anywhere
than those of Augusta.
