LANSING, Oct. 12-By decree OF the
Michigan supreme court hecounty of Bay
10 required to pay the state a claim Of long
standing for back taxes and other pur-
poses amounting to about $4,000. The
case was an important one. not only on ac-
count of the large amount involved, but
because Of the points OF law which were
raised, the constitutionality of several tax
laws Of the state and other statutes being
questioned. One Of the chief points raised
by the county was the right OF the state
to order the militia to Quell riot and
charge the expense OF calling out the
troops to the county where the riot oc'

American farmers are beginning to
look with little anxiety along the

imports Of Canadian farm products are
increasing. From an official report just

EXPORTS TO EURoPl


1t seems that during 1895 we sold to
European countries $7s, 1895, $50 worth
less of our American products and man
ufactures than we did during the fiscal
year ending June 30, 1894. In the 1895
year we spent over ssS, 800, 900 more
money in European countries, and they
spent s72, 100000 less money in this
country. We certainly bought more
from them, but instead of their return
ing the compliment, they bought less
from us. Our loss for the years deal
under the German tariff, which is only
the first step toward free trade, exceeded
S160, 100000 Thus another free trade
theory is smashed.

BUYING AND SELLING.

Another Free Trade Theory Smashed to
Smithereens.
One Of the greatest of the free trade
warcries has always been that "if we
did not buy we could not sell, >" mean
ing that if we manufactured in our own
country all the goods required for our
own market without importing any from
foreign countries, then foreign countries
would not buy any Of our farm products
or domestic manufactures. Many peo-
pie have been foolish enough to believe
this theory. Now let us look at the
facts.
Taking the statistics of our import
and export trade for the fiscal years end
ing June 80, 1894-5, as supplied by the
bureau of statistics of the treasury de-
partment, we find that our imports from
European countries during the two years
were as follows:

1t appears that during the 1896 year,
since the German tariff went into effect,
we bought from European countries for
eign goods worth $SS. sos, 977 more
than we bought in 1894. Having in
creased our purchases by this large sum
of money in a single year we naturally
turn to the figures of our exports, ex-

our sales of American goods by about
the same amount of money, but what

The Contented Javans.

The people live great deal In public,
and the poorer classes, instead OF eat
ing their meals Mt home, as In the man
ner Of the unsociable Hindu, seem
usually to breakfast and dine at one OF
the itInerant cookshops to be found at
every street corner. More exclusive
people may be seen buying the small
packets Of curry and rice wrapped In
fresh plantain leaves. and pinned with
bamboo splinters, which are intended
for home consumption.
To stroll down village street and
watch the culinary operations In pro-
gress at wayside eating shops was an
unfailing source Of amusement-and
very clean and nppetizing they looked,
though the smell was occasionally some
what trying to the European nose. The
Javans. like all rice-enting people, are
fond OF pungent. and evil-smelling
sauces, and equivalents Of the Burman
