An effort will be made to secure the
repeal Of the law fixing the price of
reservation lands at 1915 Der acre.
The Justice of this demand cannot he
denied. In no othter case have the
settlers been required to reimburse
to the general government the
sum paid out for public domain.
This purchase was made just as the
Louisiana purchase and the Alaska
purchase were made. 1t was never
suggested that the settlers should re-
turn the purchase prices of these terri
tories. What more justice is there in
the exaction from the settlers on the
coded Nez Perez lands than there
would be tor similar methods in other
cases.

1t is observable that the tax levies

they were last year. There have been
changes in the revenue laws of the

to reduce the revenues and the fines

The article copied from the London
Financial News shows clearly the
effect of the democratic tariff legisla-
ton on the business interests of the
country. Our import trade is increas-
ing. We buy wool and woolens, and
worsteds, and oundry other articles, till
as the News states, "Practically every
penny that was subscribed here toward
the recent American loan has been
got back" That is to say, that sthe
democratic policy, having depleted
the treasury by reduction of tariff
duties to Il degree that forced the gov
eminent to borrow 100000, 900. of
which England loaned the greater
part, now, 10y forcing the American
people to buy woolens aud worsteds,
restores to England the amount bor-
rowed and yet still owes the borrowed
sum. We borrow Sl00,00O,OOO to pre-
serve the national credit. Then inn,
port 500, 900, 600 worth of goods that
we could have manufactured at home
under policy of adequate protection.
On the other hand our export trade
has fallen off. The News saws, eve
have paid less for American wheat,
flour, bacon, hams, cheese, tallow and
cotton, to mention only those articles
in which the contraction is most ap.

democratic policy, are buying largely
of English woolens and worsteds that
we ought to be making at home, and
are selling less of our own export pro

in the Same manner. BY the repeal of
the reciprocity treaties we have lost
