THE DEFICIENCY rARIFF.

The government treasury closed the fiscal year June 30 with deQoit of about $iS,000,000, It would have been greater If special effort had not been made in all the departments to make a good showing by deferring payments that must be made later. It is estimat- ed that If things had been allowed to take their natural course the deficit would have been $50O0O,O0O And if the Wilson bill had become law as 1t passed the house the government would now be about s65, OOO, 900 behind.
 The deficit of $4S,OOO,cOO is one of the blessings of free trade which we heard so much about just before and just after the last presidential election. We are not hearing much about them now, What we are hearing about now is the grand work of the high flnanciers in repairing some of the damage done by Democratic misgovernment and in- cidentally making profit of a few mill lions for themselves out of the opera ton. The indications now are that they may be called on to step into the breach again to save the country and line their own pockets. If they are we shall hear more about 1t, for 1t will be harder to save the country the next time and will cost more.
 All of which teaches that there are worse things than a tariff that pro- duces enough revenue to run the coun- try. And yet some of the fantastic Democrats say that protection as an issue Is played out. They will know better by and by The people are per- ceiving that protection by tariff is bet ter and cheaper than protection by a syndicate of high financiers.

A London paper says that for the last eighteen years the Rev, osbert Mor- daunt, an Anglican clergyman, has been the proprietor of the public house at Hampton Lucy, in Warwickshire. When entering his parish, he had to decide between one of two courses. either to abolish the public house altogether, and thus leave the parishioners to procure indifferent or bad drink at the nearest point or through the grocer, or to try personally the experiment of supplying the community with good, wholesome beer at a properly conducted establish ment under the charge of a salaried manager where the sale of intoxicants to those who had already had enough was prohibited. He courageously took the latter course, in spite of the opposi- ton and criticism he could not hope to escape when entering upon such an un- usual clerical undertaking. MT. Mor- daunt showed further his excellent com mon sense by making the business pay a reasonable amount, the profits being devoted to local charities and works, according to the Scandinavian system. The results, it is claimed, have thor oughly justified the experiment. The inhabitants of Hampton Lucy obtain good and reasonably priced beer, drunk enness is prevented, and the parish ben efited by the proceeds of the undertak- inc

Civil administration of the National Weather bureau has been cheaper than military administration. The expendi- lures for four years under civilian con- srol and direction were about $3, 100000 tor which appropriations of $5,632,953 were made. Out of $S7S,439 appropriated for the present year only $S35,0o0 was expended, leaving a surplus of about S43,000. The comparison in favor of civilian control is striking. The aver age cost per year for ten years under ahe war department was $924.661; for -four years of civil management the average was $849, 9,523.

Senator Dubois says that his testing promise to Mrs. Carlisle to lead a rninuet at her home in Washington in aid of a monument fund nearly ruined his political prospects at home. The opposition papers in Idaho charged him with shamefuIly neglecting the rights of his constituents for the frivolities of society, and a Populist convention passed resolution denouncing him and his minuet. Altogether he had a hard time of it, and one newspaper remarked: :: If they will try Dubois on the lariat polka or pocatello reel he will per- form much more satisfactorily.

A Great RIeaaing.

That the removal of the duty from
wool has proved a great blessing Is
shown conclusively by the large in
crease in the quantity imported. In
the seven months ending July, 1894, the
imports of raw wool were 86,9O7, ,704
pounds, valued at 81, ,O2O, ,669; In the cor
responding seven months under the
new tariff the imports were 141 ,762, ,99S
pounds, valued at $40, ,O63, t51. Moreover,
during the first period were 26,2T2, $3.50
pounds, consisting OF coarse carpet
wool, valued at g., POS ,62s, leaving only
1O,635, ,O44, valued at 81 ,s15, ,O4t, of cloth
ing wool, while during the latter period
the wool that was to be made into
clothing was 81, 7,667, ,0l0 pounds, valued
at t13,99O,745. 1t needs no argument
TO show under which condition of af.

immense Increase In Customs Collections
Under the Reform TarIh.
The import business still continues
large and the rush at the custom house
is constantly increasing. Collector Kill
breth's big force Of deputies and clerks
have all they can do to handle the en-
tries. The enemies Of tariff reform,
however, declare that they see nothing
to surprise them in these facts. They
say that It is natural sequence that
the reduction of the tariff should in
crease the volume Of imports. But they
say that the government must sustain
itself, and that the Wilson bill will not
bring sufficient revenue. To these gen
tlemen Cashier Northrup, Of the custom
house, has the following answer TO
make:
THE custom house at the port OF
New York collects about so per cent. of
the revenue from imports of the entire
United States. The collections here
are increasing to such an extent that
there is every promise that the Wilson
bill will furnish as much il not more
revenue than did the Mckinley bill
The last three months have been ex-
tremely encouraging, and comparison
between them and the corresponding
months of 1894 may open the eyes Of
some Of the gentlemen OF the opposi.
ton.
"For instance, the collections at this
port during July, 1894, were t6,218,-
1921, and those for July, 1895, were
$4,000, ,666.66. In August past we col
lected 0,872, ,07s.4l, and in August,
1894, the collections were Ss.7SO, 715. IS.
1.-THE Wilson bill went into effect on
August 2S 1894. The revenues collected
for the month following were so,741,-
4O4.s2. The opposition asserted that
there was nothing to be surprised at In
the fact that the receipts increased
t1,OOO,OOO over the preceding month.
They asserted that importers had pur-
posely held back their entries in order
to take advantage of tariff reduction.
That is probably true, but the imports
for September, 1895, show a revenue of
90, ,s34, ,O72. Sc, an increase OF s92, ,667.74." )"
Mr.. Northrup, at the request Of the
World, has prepared the following in
teresting table comparing the customs
receipts at the port Of New York for
twelve months Of 1s93-lSO4 under the
Mckinley bill with the corresponding
months Of ls94-1S95, during the last
ten months of which the Wilson bill
was in force. 1t is as follows:

psMocRArio SUCCESS.
Significance OF the Recent Victory In In
dianapoiIs


Following general democratic sue
cess in the town elections of Connecti-
cut comes a democratic triumph of
great significance.
indianapolis is in Marion county, In
diana. This county in 1899 gave
Cleveland about nine hundred votes
more than Harrison, but at the sue
ceeding municipal election the repub-
licans chose their candidate for mayor
by very large majority. The charter
election this year was conducted with
great vigor. Friends of Gen. Harrison
insisted that there must be republican
success in order to present his name at
the national nominating convention
with the eclat that. would come from
decided home support. The republican
candidate had not been friendly to Mr..
Harrison, but the matter had been
smoothed over and the ex-president
himself had made a declaration in IA
vor OF the candidacy OF the republican
nominee. Harrison himself was an
early voter. The result, as necessarily
admitted by republican journals, was
the worst overthrow in city election
ever recorded in the history of Indian
apolis. The democrats triumphantly
electiug their candidate for the mayor
atty, Mr.. Tsggart, who is also chair
man of the state democratic committee,
have made a net gain Of eight thousand.
Democratic success was not confined to
the head of the ticket. 1t included
wide sweep in the wards, making the
municipal body Overwhelmingly demo-
cratic.
These are but forerunners of the
sweeping democratic victories that are
TO be recorded everywhere this fall.
The period OF depression is passed. The
people discern that the panic resulting
in low commercial conditions was not
chargeable upon the administration in
power at Washington, but upon the
party which passed the Sherman and
Mckinley laws. The encouragement TO
democracy In 1894 is removed. Democrats
are reasserting themselves everywhere.
II they shall carry New York this fall,
backing it with success elsewhere,
their triumph in the presidential cleo
tion in 1895 will be assured. Chicago

WHEAT EXPORTS.
Improving Conditions Under the Wilson
Law.

Improving Conditions Under the Wilson
A high tariff contemporary claims
that Europe bought more "high-priced
wheat from us under the Mckinley
law than low-priced wheat under the
Wilson law"
Yes, IL did In 1892 because of crop
shortages that year and the year be-
fore In Europe. Crop damages were so
great that some of the European couB-
tries suspended their duties on grain
and otherwise favored by legislation
the import of American wheat But
McKinleyism couldn't help our farmers
after that. Not only did our wheat
exports fall of In 1898 over forty mil.
lion bushels, but the price per bushel
fell twenty per cent
Instead of recovering the lost ground
in the next year Of McKinleyism,
wheat continued to fall In price. Not
until the Wilson bill had taken effect
was any Improvement perceptiblo.
The average export price of No. 2 red
wheat has been higher this year than
at any time since Europe's crop short
age in 1892 The average for the year
has also been higher than during the
corresponding period of last year un-
der the Mckinley bill.
When we compare quantities we find
that up to the lst of August about
two million three hundred thousand
bushels more were exported than dur
ing the corresponding period OF last
year. Our crop shortage this year in
winter wheat cut down exports consid-
ably until the spring wheat crop was
harvested, but since the middle Of Sep
tember they have exceeded last years
exports We are ahead now OF 1894
and are likely to make gains every
week for several months over the year
1893 as we'll as last year. Wheat is
higher now than it was year ago and
as high as It was in October, 1893.
There is this difference, however.

years ago was downward it is now up

This shows we imported less wooden
manufactures the first year of the Will
son law than we did, with one excep-
ton, in the yesrs 1856 to 1894. Yet the
consumption Of woolen goods largely
increased, because cheapness always in
creases consumption, and woolens are
much cheaper now than they have ever
been before. This increased consump-
ton has been met by American mills,
And not by foreigners What else
could have become of the immense in
crease of our imports of clothing woods.
which is one of the results of free wooli
Speaking Of the general condition of
the trade, the Boston Commercial Bull
letin, inclined toward McKinleyism,
puts the sales of wool in the Boston
market last week at 8,526,0 pounds,
and for the three weeks at 80, ,000, 900
pounds, which is the largest amount Of
wool ever sold in the Boston market for
the same period. Says The Bulletin:
The business transacted during the past
week has been large, and compares favorably
with that Of last week, which was the heaviest
In the history OF the trade For the three
weeks that have just closed there has been
more wool sold for actual consumption that at
any other similar period in the market Man.
ufacturers have been the largest bhyers. OF
the total Of sales reported, over 100000
pounds were Of American growth.
This is sufficient to demonstrate that
the woolen industry, instead of being
ruined by the Wilson tariff, has been
largely benefited. In few years,
should the woolen schedule remain un-
disturbed, our manufacturers. will not
only supply the home market with fine
woolens, hitherto imported. but will
