FRENCH OK GoRED.

the United States. France has made the
most stringent laws and regulations against
the importation Of American cattle, the
pretext being defective inspection On this
side. and consequent danger from disease:
the real reason, however, heiDg the sharp
competition our excellent beef makes for
the inferior native article, and the lessen
ing of profits for French ca,tle-raisers.
This action is virtually prohibitory, so far
as the Importation of American beef is
concerned, and the United States has
retaliated by interdicting the shipment of
French cattle for our ports. The first case
has arisen, and the French government has
entered protest.
Germany and Switzerland are in the
same box with France. These countriesalso
are named in the proclamation issued by
the President about six months ago, be-
cause they. too, Disseminated against Amer
lean cattle, and the retaliatory policy aG-
thorized by the tariff law of 1894 was put
in force. French cattle are Dotoriously af-
fiictcd with diseases of various kinds, and
yet the French government objects to u
rigid inspection of those intended for ex-
portation. though imposing ii upon foreign
becvcs. There is no other way than that
pursued by the President to bring the gov
ernments of Europe to realization of the
fact that fair exchange is no robbery and
tit for tat policy as well adapted to ma
tions as to individuals.

Prof. Dewar, in a lecture before tho

stated that from the carbiles prepared in

THE CHARITY SCHEDULE

Comparatively little difficulty has been
experienced by the conferees on the Dis
tnct appropriation bill in coming to an
agreement on most of the items in dispute
They appear, however, 10 have locked horns
over the charity schedule, and feeling
bound by the very positive expressions of
the respective branches of Congress on two
essentially 3ntagonistic propositions ii
looks as If there might be trouble to reach IL
proper understanding or compromise 1t
will be remembered of course, that thase
differet ccs are not simply as to aIn ants
appropriated. but that a prncip.. is III
volved in The manner of their ilistrihuti N.
The House of Representatives so strenuously
objected TO appropriations for individual
institutions that it rccommitted the bill ard
finally adopted clause appropriating a
lump sum and entrustng its disbursement
10 the District Commissioners. The Sen
ate reversed this aud reinser.ed the indi-
viduai schedule. Both House and Senateare
firm in their insistepcc upon their respect
i've action.
1t is not proposed at this stage of tile
proceedings TO DISCUSS the fnerltS OF eltiier
one of the policies, save to say that it does
not seem advisable to place any more power
or discretion in the hands of the local tri-
ocracy than is absolutely necessary. What
the people of the District are specially in
tcrested in is that none of the charitable
institutions shall be crippled in its opera,
tions for lack of support. Yet this will
surely be the result of deadlock ON this
part of the appropriation bill. The remain
ing days of the present session are but few.
If all the other appropriation bills are got
ten out of the way, and the District bill
should he the only cne pending, the con-
fcrces might throw the whole charity
schedule out rather than prolong the ses-
sion simply on its account.
In such a contingency the most de-
plorable results would lie sure to Happen
In fact. it is impossible to fcrcsce or fore
tell the misery which would follow in
the wake of failure to make appropriation
for the various charitable associations
and institutions enumerated in lhc Senate
amendment. Itisto be hoped thatsomc way
may he found outof the prcscnttangle and
that next winter may not impose heavier
burdens upon the people Of the District than
LEY are already compelled to carry.

A reference to the state

1t is easily possible for

conscience to swell its legit-

advertisers. by sending out
thousands of papers to

turnabIe, and which are in
fact returned, but neverthe-
less are included in what
purports to be an honest
statement of circulation.
Intelligent advertisers,
however. judge by results,
and bogus circulation don't
give them.
The family circulation of
The Times is many thou
sands in excess of any other
Washington paper and is
believed to be fully two
times that of its afternoon
