Senator EIklns, shipping BIm.

AIE Vi liz AA0oN kRA@N1N
to be presented to the next Con-
gress is that which Senator Elkins
has prepared in accordance with the
clause of the Republican platform
which declares: I'VE favor the res
toration of discriminating duties FOR
the upbuilding Of our merchant
marine, and for the protection Of our
shipping in the foreign carrying
trade" Senator Elkins bill pro
vides for 10 per cent additional
tariff duty on all goods imported 10
foreign vessels. 49,.
The first effect of such a measure
would be an increase Of revenue by
not less than $50. 600 900, and posi-
bly, by as much as 500. ooo,a year.
This increase, however, would be Of
but temporary duration, though it
would be for long enough to help us
out oil the quagmire of deficit in which
we now are foundering, and for the
hereafter a judicious revision of tariff
on the line of protection will prevent
our again falling into the mire OF dis
aster.
The second, and more important
effect, would be a revival of the almost
lost American industry of shipbuild-
ing. There hardly is an industry that
would not be benefited by such re-
vival. Wood, coal. flax, hemp, rosin,
pitch, paint, all go into the construc-
ton of the commonest tramp steam
er;" the higher grades of vessels are
fitted with plush, silks, and fine linen
in their cabins, and glass and china
are required for the table service.
The crews eat meat and bread, and
so do the men who build the ships.
Millions upon millions year that
now are spent abroad will be spent in
the United States when our exports
and imports are conveyed in Ameri
can built ships.
1t is estimated by experts that the
people OF the United States yearly pay
$500, 900, 900 to foreign shipowners
for freight and passenger transporta-
ton. To this vast sum is to be added
the gains by the employment of
American labor in the building of
American ships. Some years must
elapse after the passage Of Senator
Elkins' well-devised bill before the
full measure of its benehcent effect is
realized But from the first day of
its adoption there will be a quicken
ing of American industry, and in
crease of the American wage fund,
diminution OF the American payments
to foreign shipowners, and a revival
of the American ambition fol; naval
supremacy. 1t is a terrific, though
unexaggerated, statement that the
$500, 900, 900 paid yearly to foreign
ers for the transportation of American
freight and passengers is not far from
half as much again-as the average
of our national revenue from tariffs,
and not very far short of two thirds OF
the average revenue of the govern
ment from all sources. And it is in
reality needless and criminal yearly
expectation of gold.-Chicago Inter
Ocean.

A Word to Farmers by Farmer.

10 the EultOr OF the Herald.
Knowing that the Herald is read by
a great many of the farmers of this
section, l ask for little space to call
their attention to few facts. Farm
ers are in the habit of complaining
that they are not fairly treated in the
way of taxation; that they have to
pay taxes on their mortgaged farms,
while others are permitted to deduct
their Indebtedness. At this time l
will not stop to argue the case. We
all know Just what the cause of COM
plant is. Now for the remedy. The
Republicans in their state platform
declare for equality in taxation. That
party will control the next session of
the Legislature. What are the FARM
ers going to do about it? If they ask
for nothing they will get just what
they ask, and that is all they will get.
No matter how we'll that body is dis
posed, nothing will be done unless
farmers unite in sending some one
there to look after their cause. All
other classes will have some one on
the ground tolook after their interests.
True a majority of the members may
be farmers, but some concerted action.
is necessary, We must unite our
efforts if we would accomplish any
thing The task is a difficult one,
but it is not hopeless. The Grange
organization it seems to the would be
the proper party to lead, but so few
of our farmers interest themselves
enough to connect themselves with
any of the Oranges that those outside
the order will have to help. Can we
not have a meeting of the farmers and
arrange to take some step to secure
the legislation which we need? 1t is
time that we we're at work. Should
the farmers decide to hold an institute
this tall something might be done at
that time. Growing will do no good.
Work will win every time. Get to-
gether and talk. business and unite on
some plan. FARMER.
The President has appointed John
II. Rogers, of Arkansas, United States
district judge for the western district

It was young Mr.. Kilduff who spoke,
and he addressed Miss Mullins, at the
same time placing his arm round her
waist and attempting to deposit a kiss
upon her lips.
This was all proper enough, for the
two were engaged and had been be-
trothed for year, but the girl evaded
the salute, disengaged herself from his
embrace and stood apart.
II am not your queen !" she replied,
with stately if not regal dignity.
"Why, what's up, Carrier" asked the
young man in surprise.
"You have no right to speak to me
like that, she protested.
II am very sorry, dearest. But don't
understand.
"You call me your queen. You have
often called me that, but am not. l
have read that when Queen Victoria ap-
pears in the drawing room it is no un-
common thing to see her display tens Of
thousands Of pounds worth Of jewelry.
How much do ! display? Not even an
engagement ring
And she held out her ringless fingers
for Mr.. Kilduff's inspection.
He caught hold Of the extended hand,
and this time he got his kiss. for he re-
piled:
IT can't give you as many jewels as
Queen Victoria wears, but my queen
shall have a diamond ring tomorrow. :"
