other interests, it proceeds to suggest
method that will avert threatened
evils. The salient features of the
measure are: The appropriation of
100000 to carry on the campaign.
One-half of this sum is to be used in
1896 and the other next year. Any
person who permits the weed to re-
main on any land in his control is to
be punished by a fine of from $40 to
$500. If the owner fails to destroy
the thistles after being notified of
their presence the. local authorities
are to enter upon the land and do so,
the expense being charged as tax
upon the land and collected the same
as other taxes are. The overseers of
highways are charged with the duties
of destroying the thistles that may
be found along the roads and to
watch for any growing on private
lands within their districts. All
thistles are to be destroyed before
the seed natures. The expense of
this work is to he paid out of the
county funds, but the county is to
be reimbursed out of the 100000 ap-
propriated. All the necessary legal
to accomplish the end de-
sired is set forth in full in the bill
and it is supposed to be guarded at
avery point.

The Minneapolis Times very APPLY
ikens the Democratic party to a GER
tain man, who, on the pretense OF
wanting to buy several barrels of gin,
insisted on sampling each of the diff
ferent brands innumerable times be-
fore he made his choice. This he kept
up for several days until the whole
sale dealer tired of such procedure
and insisted that the prospective Gus
toner make his choice and place his
order at once. The would-be pur-
chaser thereupon produced half
pint flask from his pocket and asked
the dealer to fill it for him, and allow
him the usual 60 days in which to
pay the bill. The dealer didn't give
him time not even enough to get to
the door unassisted. 1.-The Times says
the Democratic party, after clamoring
for all kinds of reform at wholesale,
takes out Of Mr. Carlisle's pocket a
little bit of a currency bill and wants
it passed; and on this little two-cent

Complaints are often made against
the amount OF annual salary paid to
prominent officials in the u. S. Gov
eminent. Those who find fault with
the present allowance, will, no doubt
be more embittered than ever, when
an increase of salary is granted to our
foreign ministers, says the Princeton
Union. irst-class missions, as
France, England, Germany and Rus
STA, pay all annual salary az $l7 500,
yet every minister in later years has
returned poorer than he went. These
men have not been extravaganza, nor
a,e our present ministers of that
type. They are simply forced into
expenditures beyond their salary linn
it by the customs and usages of tie
aristocratic countries i'll which they
are stationed. There is not much
mercy shown foreign diplomat as
far as money is concerned. The one
single item of rent is usually 1000
per mouth for man who has fam
lily, and everything else required is in
about the same outrageous proper
ton. If our would-be economists can
see some method by which our peo-
Pile can regulate these conditions in
other countries, then we could con-
sistently call for a reduction of salar-
les. AS it now stands, an increase is
demanded and should be forthcom-
ing, that our ministers may hold
themselves in keeping with the re-
1uirements of their official positions.

Another fact is exident, namely: that
there is no money in the treasury
of the railroad company with which
to meet this demand. Thus an i'm
portant matter presents itself to
Congress for consideration and dis
position. The debt is secured by q
lien on the property of the company,
subject to certain prior obligations of
about the same amount. To forclose
the Government must first satisfy
the demands Of preferred creditors
making the property in question cost
us about 66,OOO,OOO, which amount is
more than it's market value. But if
the Government should take it at
any figure, and attempt to operate it
as a federal enterprise, such policy
would certainly be contrary to funda
mental principles and to well-estab-
presidents and practices. The ex-
perience of foreign nations in this
matter has not been such as to justify
the theory that this departure would
be advantageous to the people gener-
ally. Another solution of the prob
EN- presents itself and we think it
worthy of consideration It is to ex-
end the time on as favorable terms
Is possible. This would give the

WHEAT AND COTTON GOODS.

In the March number of the
Bankers Magazine in an article by
Mr.. Worthington G. Ford, of the
bureau of statistics, the opinion
is expressed that it is doubtful
whether the American farmer
will ever regain control of the
wheat markets Of the world, in
view of the small cost Of produc-
ing wheat in Argentina. Wheat is
produced in that country at a
cost Of 40 cents a bushel, which
is supposed to be less than in
Russia or in any other country in
the world. The advantage OF
our farmers in the past was in
having a fertile virgin soil, cost
ing little and easy to cultivate.
This advantage they no longer
possess in any large degree. In
Argentina, however, wheat
growers still possess it and will
continue to possess it for many
years 20 come, since the supply
of wheat-growing land there is
pIdCGlcdlly llll1ulUdulS.
The American farmer may, un-
der exceptional circumstances
when, for example, the Argen-
tine crop is short-still find sale
for his grain at a paying price,
but his monopoly is gone. It is
difficult to see how he can re-
duce his expenses sufficiently tc
make wheat in average years a
paying crop. Petroleum and
wool are other products over
which we have similarly lost con
troll.
1t is in a time of depression,
says Mr.. Ford that a country
"realizes it's industrial position.
When profits are brought down
to the lowest possible figure, then
production goes inevitably in the
long run to the section best
fitted for producing cheaply. An
illustration Of this principle is
seen in ':the tendency of the cot
ton industry to remove South
ward," and it is pointed out that
the nearness of the South to
Central and South America gives
it ~''whatsare considered the nat
ural markets of the United
States" The same saving of
freight charges that takes cotton
mills to the cotton fields will at
tend the carriage of Southern
cotton from the mills to their
patrons in Latin America. Both
in their manufacture and in their
sale Southern cotton must pos
sess a decisive advantage.

The Tax is Coming IN Fast.

WASHINGTON. March ga
The income tax is coming in
faster than was expected. It was
said by its enemies that it would
be levied on and paid by a few
people. The facts ascertained to-
day do not bear out such assump-
tions. Of course no very large
returns are yet in, but sufficient
has been done to justify the
statement, there is no comfort for
the enemies of the measure. One
Of their strongest arguments has
been that particular sections
would bear the burden of the
tax. The received returns show
the falsity of this assumption.
The early payers are from differ
ent sections and nothing indi-
Gates that the burden will not be
born uniformly in various parts
Of the Union. It is true that the
larger tax payers, everywhere
as a rule, are holding back wait
ing for the Supreme Court to
pronounce upon the constitu-
tionality of the law. They are
making a possibly dangerous
mistake. If the law is upheld,
they will have postponed pay
ment for nothing and risked the
payment of a penalty. If the re-
turns are not received before
April 10th, the penalty will have
to be paid. If they reach here
on the eve Of expiration of the
limit, it will be impossible to in
sure absolute correctness. The
officials will do their best, but
many errors will naturally CREEP
in if business is held back to the
last moment.
It can be stated with some as
surance that the income tax in
spectors will not be appointed il
block as was thought probable
last week, but will be designated
one at a time, carefully, to avoie
making mistakes as to the men

NAL climate with the advantages
of cheaper living expenses, less
legislative interference with Ia
Dor and capital and comparative
freedomfrom strikes and other la
Dor troubles. The South is already
in practical control of the mar
ket for the lines Of cotton goods
which she manufactures, and
there is no reason why she may
not engage successfully in the

The difficulties which stand in
the way of that achievement are
entirely accidental, while the ad-

was given; but all Of Anderson's

room were destroyed. This is

Anderson has been thus robbed;
but this time the culprit's neck
would pay the penalty. for arson,
