Damage They DO Runs Into the Millions

The damage done 10 the sheep inter
csts by dogs is beyond comprehension.
The loss annually runs up into the mil
lions. That is. the direct loss. There
is another loss. indirect many farmers

countered so much opposition that they
have been repealed after being in force
only few months.
II seems TO us that dog law might
be passed that would be effective and
yet occasion no great opposition. PEG.
pie will keep dogs. But II is not ncces-
sary that they should keep large dogs
that Is, dogs large enough TO kill n
sheep. 4 law might be framed taxing
dogs above n certain weight. This
would be putting premium on small
dogs. and we are Of the opinion that
they would be more fashionable than
20 present. The weight could be put
at the point where the sheep industry
would be protected.
IL Is pity that the farmers must be
taxed millions Of dollars each year in
the way Of dead sheep that the rest Of
the community may have their house,
hold pets. We would like TO ask our
sheep raisers 70 give their experience
as TO sheep-kIling dogs. and the weight
at which the dogs become menace to
the sheep industry. Review.

BENEFITS OF RECIPROCITY.
foilcy which the Republicans Are
Pledged To Restore


Pledged To Restore
The unanimity of opinion on the part
of the business interests OF the country
in favor of reciprocity is very distaste-
fuI 10 the democratic papers. of course
they realize that their party made a
great mistake when it abropated that
profitable policy, and the only thing
they can find to say about it is that the
republicans are Inconsistent in advocate
ing 1t because il implies free trade. III
we obtain market for our surplus
products in foreign countries under
reciprocity treaties says one of them.
I'VE cannot in fairness. refuse to supDly
market for the surplus products Of
foreigners; and so republican dcclara-
ton IN favor of reciprocity is humbug,
or it is practically in advocacy of free
trade But this view OF the matter in
easy TO rcfutc. The meaning of free
trade is the unrestricted interchange Of
Industries, as well rs dissimilar prod
ucts. and reciprocity does not contcm-
plate anything of the kind II is mani
testify 10 the advantage OF the people OF
the United States 10 buy freely from
other countries such things as cannot
be produced at rome. and to- pay for
such things in the domestic commodi-
ties of which they have q surplus. This
IS good republican doctrine. and it is the
basis of the theory OF reciprocity.
There is no sacrifice of the principle
Of protection in the negotiation Of the
reciprocity treaties under the act OF
1890. They added nothing 20 the free
list that was not already here. but they
enlarged our foreign trade under con
ditions peculiarly favorable 20 our pro-
tected interests and TO our producers Of
all classes. Tea. coffee and hides had
been on the free list since s73. and tho
duty was removed from sugar and mo-
lasscs by the act Of 1890 The rcciproci
~ clause simply authorized the rein-
position Of duties upon these five com
modities when imported from countries
20 which our goods could not enter as
freely as those of other nations. THAI
IS to say, We did not make any new con.
cessions to foreign countries for the
purpose Of securing their trade. and did
not surrender any part Of our home
markets. but merely demanded from
them a fair return for the ADVANTAGE
which we had granted 10 them. The re-
suit was that they wholly removed or
largely reduced duties imposed by them
ON over 1000 articles of American pro-
ductions and manufacture. There was
no free trade iu that proceeding. II
was dot by an extension Of our free list.

When the weather is warm and fair the

Broken Promises.

Manufacturers who use alcohol in
the arts are up in arms over the failure
OF the government to rebate the tax as
crowded in the Wilson tariff law. The
section of the law provides that the in
ternai revenue tax of S2.35 a gallon on
alcohol shall he paid back to manufact-
urers upon proof being presented that
the alcohol is used for manufacturing
purposes. The law has now been i'm
force for twenty months and more. and
yet not one cent has been paid out
under this provision. This reputation
of an obligation is by instruction of
Secretary Curlisle, who has thus pre-
vented his deficit from being increased
by the addition of Ss.OOO,OOO. the total
amount OF rebate claims to date. II is

The rich were the Cruci6erB and muir
dererg Of the Lord OF Glory. do not
know Of o single passage Of Scripture
that commends the rich as such. Paul
says: "The love Of money is the root
Of all evil" James says: "DO not
rich men oppress you, and draw you
before the judgment sestsP DO they
not blaspheme that worthy name by
which ye are called P"-( james II, 8, ~
In verse 5, chapter II, he asks: "Hsth
God not chosen the poor Of this world
rich In faith, and heirs Of the kingdom
which he hath promised to them that
love himP Again the same Apostle
says: "Go to now, ye rich men; weep
and howl for your miserles that shall
come upon you. Your riches are cor
rupted, and your garments are moth
eaten. Your gold and silver Is cank-
cred, and the rust Of them shall be
witness against you, and shall eat your
flesh as it were fire. Ye have hesped
treasure together for the last days
Behold the hire of the laborers, who
have reaped down your fields, which iH
of you kept back by fraud, Crieth; and
the cries of them which have reaped
are entered into the ears Of the Lord
of gabaoth, Ye have lived In pleasure
on the earth, and been wanton; ye have
nournlshed your hearts as In q day Of
slaughter. Ye have condemned and
killed the just, and he doth not resist
you."-( james v, 81
What was true of the rich at the
time James wrote the above is equally
true now. No sin receives greater con
demnatlon In the Scriptures than tina
of usury (lnterest), and yet the money
power which is supporting Mckinley
and opposing Bryan is practicing ant
seeking to perpetuste one of the most
oppressive systems Of usury that the
