+. GETTING WORSE.

| S. far this fiscal year the expen.
ditures of the treasury exceed the
receipts by $14,OO0,0O0. And in
this is not included thousands Of
items which will, at the end Of
the fiscal year, show a state OF at.
fairs exceedingly sorry, notwith-
standing the fact that the govern
ment has already borrowed $780,
600, 900 and must at once secure
another loan. And all of this is
due to Cleveland and Wilson and
the Wilson-Gorman farcical tariff
bill.
The tariff is but tax.
The expense of the government
must be paid from the money re-
ceived for taxes, the same as the
expenses of Orange or Durham
county are paid. Any fool should
have sense enough to know that it
is necessary to levy enough tax to
pay the running expenses OF a
city, a county, a state or a nation
al government. 1t is on the same
principle that if a man works for
ten dollars a week, and that is all
his income, and it so happens
that his expenses are twelve dol
lars a week, he is simply running
in debt every day he lives. To
pay his debt, his credit being coed,
he floats his note Tor bond but by
discounting his paper he finds
that he has incurred a larger debt
than he paid.
Now, does it not look reasonable
that that man, if he had any
sense at all, would cut down his
expenses, which he could do, and
which the government can do, to
a figure below his income, and
thus have a surplus rather than
find himself hopelessly involved
in debt. Or, if he chose to con.
tinue the expenditure of twelve
dollars a week, if he cared any
thing for his credit, he would
make arrangements and see to it
that his income was at least as
great as his expenditures.
But the obstinate Mr.. Cleveland,
because he sanctioned the Wilson
bill, proposes to uphold it no mat
ter if the country becomes bank
rupt. The howl of the democrat
ic party was for a tariff for reve-
nue. only" and in its anxiety to
catch votes and pose as a great
reformer, it gave US a law which
falls far short of yielding sufficient
revenue, and then in the stupidity
and imbecility Of its obstinacy re-
fuses to acknowledge its inca
pability Of running the govern
ment.
1t is for this reason, as will be
shown in 1896, that the cake of
the democratic party is all dough.

GOOD ADIICE, But

In one Of Esop's fables we read
Of whore a wolf had fallen into d
well, and a clerical looking fox
happening to. come along. the
wolf applied to him for help. The
iex told him that he should have
known better than to be around
the we'll, but in this case he would
assist him Whereupon he hand,
ed him a tract, which advised all
wolves to be good.
We are forcibly reminded Of
the above by the long letter sent
by Hector D. Lane, president Of
the American Cotton Growers As
ISOLATION, in which he offers a
great amount of fatherly advice;
concluding it as follows:

1t is all very well to sit back in
the presidents office and give adj
vice to the farmers. 1t really
sounds nice to read the advice
which is: Don't sell your cotton;
hold it till the price comes up"
That is what Lane recommends,
and that is logical.
ofcourse. Don't sell anything.
Take your cotton and tobacco, in
fact all your crop which is not
perishable, and put it away in

spinners are bound to have it

SLEEPING CAR RIGHTS.
When the Company Is Responsible for a
Travellers Losses

When the Company Is Responsible for n
Travellers Losses.
Charles Peak rode from Oakland,
Cal, to Los Angeles, in a Pullman
sleeping car. Before he went to bed,
about midnight, he went to the smok-
ing room, and there found the porter
sound asleep. He occupied a lower
berth, and put his coat and waistcoat
in the unoccupied berth above him.
When he got up in the morning they
were gone He sued the company,
and San Francisco justice gave him
verdict. The company contended
that it was absolved from response
bility by its notice on the back of the
berth check, which says: Baggage,
wearing apparel, money, jewelry, or
other valuables taken into the car
will be entirely at the owners risk"
The justice held that this notice was
not sufficient, and that the company
must be responsible for the clothes a
passenger actually wore, otherwise
the whole scheme of the sleeping car
failed. The justice said:
at is enough to say, upon the evil
dence in the case, that If this colOred
porter had done his duty the loss of
this coat and vest could never have
happened. It is uncontroverted evil
dence that this porter was dead asleep
about midnight of the night in ques-
ton, in the smoking room of the car,
out of sight of the aisle of the car and
everything which might go on in the
various sections of the car opening
upon the aisle.
81 am prepared to hold that the
proof of the loss alone of the wearing
apparel of passenger in a sleeping
car like this in the night time is
enough to make the defendant liable,
in the absence of any showing on the
part of the defendant that its servants
did their duty to the fullest extent
AS q matter of law, there is no pre-
sumption that they did. All parts OF
the sleeping car-that is, all parts
not occupied by other passengers
should be safe for the passenger to de-
post any article of personal property
in or on. which he usually wears on
his person, or with his person, such
ss a coat, cane, an umbrella or hat.

THE SNOW BLANKET.
why 1t Is SO Valuable In Protecting the

why 1t Is SO valuable In Protecting the
Fields From Cold.
The value of mantle of snow in
protecting vegetation in the fields in
winter if fully understood in farming
districts, and the cause of the protect
i've effect of the snow is an interesting
subject of scientific inquiry.
In Germany, where, as the Youths
Companion says, no such subject is
ever allowed to escape investigation,
DIR. Abels has recently made some inn
tportant observations on the thermal
properties of snow. He has found
that the looser the snow the greater
its power to protect the ground be-
meath from the effects OF external
changes of temperature.
Snow generally offers about four
times as much resistance to such
changes as sheet of ice of the same
thickness offers. When snow be-
comes closely packed, therefore, 1T is
less effective as protection to plant
life than when it lies loosely upon
the surface.
Other experiments show that while
a blanket of snow protects the ground
beneath from the chilly effects of the
winter atmosphere, yet the surface o.
the snow itself, especially in clear
weather, is colder than the air, sc
that snow tends to lower the temper
