Personal Notes.
Hon. III. K. Low, acting United States
consul at Managua, has been seriously
sick for several days with fever OF ma
larial type. He is now improving and ap-
parently out of danger
Mr.. Low has received orders from the
state department. at Washington to send
by steamer to San Francisco, in charge Of
some reliable person, Edward Sprecker
Of Richview, Ills. who attempted suicide
here about three months ago. Sprecker
has nearly recovered from his injuries.
Mr. DeSavigney of st. Paul has pur-
chased, for q company of Minnesota citi-
Gems, young coffee estate in the depart
ment Of Notega. The price paid was about
$1,000 In gold. The estate contains about
$50 acres of improved lands, the trees upon
1t being four years old. Those should be
in full bearing In 1893, producing from
$4,000 to 10000 pounds Of coffee.
General Duarte, governor Of Bluefelds,
has returned to Managua on leave of alb
sence. He will not probably return to
Bluefelds as governor. General Pablo
Reyes, who Is acting governor in General
Duarte's place, will probably be appointed
to succeed him.

Chester Donaldson, who represents that
he has been teaching q private military

prevent all jewing il price, detect all shoddy and
adultnrated articles, exposing the deceitful person
and prevent buyers, who are not expert Judges Of
articles from being imposed upon in quality or
price. It would be less expensive as it would
abolsh commercial drummers, concentrate the
wholesale trade in each political division, reducing
clerks and salaries. It would be the sub-treasury
plan Of the Farmers Alliance, modified so as not
to be class legislation and made local option so it
could be applied to small communities and would
not require the education and conversion of the
entire United States before any community could
have the benefits Of an improved system, many
prudent men would vote for the plan of local op-|
ton who would not favor one that would be arbi-I
trary blythe national government, but would favor
la small experiment in which the political patro-|
mage of the federal government was not increased.
The custom of most reformers of wanting all
reforms only national issues, is like a general of
an army of raw recruits engaging in al
|pitched battle against a strong and we'll disciplined
command instead drilling and disciplining his men
by engaging in ~skirmishes and minor battles to|
familiarize the men with their duties. A war is
IN progress between the laborers, who are the
wealth producers of the country and the greed for
great wealth in individuals and corporations and
it is a maxim in war to cut off an enemies rations
and destroy his resources. We submit that the
enemies rations are the great profits made in
Finance, Commerce and Manufacturing and that
this system will greatly reduce or destroy
them.
1t would be possible to exercise a much better
control Of railways without owning them as the
government would be the main shipper of
freights.
The outlay for government agents in foreign
would be nominal as United States con-
suls could perform the duties and they are already
paid salaries.
Also another economy in government could be
introduced by employing the greater part of the
navy in commerce in time Of peace by building
a large proportion of fast cruisers that could be
employed in carrying mails and commerce, dispen-
sing with subsidies to private steamship lines,
and enable the nation to rennodolize an immense
navy on short notice yet selfsupporting when not
engaged in active warfare.
After the system was adopted by the entire ma
ton it would be possible to abolish all custom
house officials as the government itself would be
the wholesale purchaser and importer of foreign
made goods. But although it would abolish the
tariff laws and the revenue therefrom it would
furnish a very equitable means of taxation, by
adding the required per cent of profit in trade,
would be a just system of taxation as could not be
shifted from one class or occupation to another.
Also Individual purchases are generally in proper
ton to income or ability to pay taxes. Under our
present tariff tax system it is possible to cripple
or destroy an industry by fixing tariffs, rates and
in the confusion of theories thereupon the guilty
