Gov. Mckinley is seeking the presi-
dency almost wholly on his record as a
high protectioulst. N0twithstanding the
fact that the tariff that bears his name
was condemned by an overwhelming ma
jority OF the people as soon as there was
a chance TO get an expression Of public
opinion IN regard TO it, Gov. Mckinley
and his friends persist IN thinking there
is a popular demand TO have that tariff
re-enacted. We think they are mistaken.
and that at the coming national election
ct viii De shown they are.
Let us look at the exports of our man
ufactured goods and at the revenues under
the two tarifls-the Mckinley tarln and
the Wilson tariff. The figures snow that
under the Wilson tariff our exports Of
manufactured goods have been much
greater than they were under the Nc
Kinley tariff. OF our manufactured goods
We exported last February si7.265. l6i
worth. and for January and February
our exports of this class of
goods amounted to S3j.0000lO. II there
should be no falling of before the end
Of next December the amount of such
exports would reach $2l5.oOO.o0O for the
year. The amount Of these exports in the
first year of the Wilson tariff was $780,
10000. In no year Of the Mckinley tariff
did they reach SlSlOO0,O00. DO not these
figures present an object lesson for wage
earners? If the Wilson tariff enables us
IN e..
of the world. is it not the tariff for tile
wage earners? 1t certainly is, because
the more manufactured goods we can
sell in neutral markets. the more work
there is for wage earners TO do
Now about the revenues, Let us COM
pare the customs receipts during the last
nineteen months of the Mckinley tariff
with the receipts during the first nine
teen months of the Wilson tariff The
amount received under the Mckinley tariff
during the time specified was S22i. AS. 165,
while the amount received under the
Wilson tariff in the same number OF
months was S257, G59. 273 Here is shown a
difference Of So. $4,000 in favor Of the VIII
son tariff.
If Gov. Mckinley should be the repub-
lican candidate for President, he will
not find much to aid him in the tariff
which bears his name, when it is COM
pared with the Wilson tariff. The results
of both tariffs would be fully explained,
and the people would be quick to see
that the Wilson tariff is the better for
the wage Garner, the manufacturer and
the country

The Black Plague.

Dispatches tell OF the prevalence of the
dreaded black plague in one or two cities
Of China. and all ships from the orient are
now held in strictest quarantine at the
western gateway to this country. Up to
March 20 there had been 1854 deaths in
Hong Kong since Jan. /, and other cases
are reported from Singapore

denies. 1t devastated the whole Roman
empire in the sixth century and in the
fourteenth century it did dreadful work
upon the population of Europe during the
reign OF what is known in history as the
Black Death.
1t is rare that less than sixty per cent.
Of those attacked die. Often the rate is
ninety per cent The plague. which so de-
vastated the nations of Europe during
the reign Of the Black Death, was a very
malignant kind of contagious fever, which,
like most of the infectious fevers, was at
tended with terrible achings in the joints
and glandular swellings, usually in the
neck, groins or arm pits. The reason for
terming the infection the black plague is
because of the peculiar development of
the disease on the third or fourth day
when great black spots appear on the
skin. due to subcutaneous hemorrhages
Bleeding often takes place from the nose

occurs, however, before any of these
marked symptoms are apparent. The dis

A good deal has been said in congress
lately about the postofice establishment
and the mails. But most of it has been
of a political nature. There are several
thousand postoffices in the country, and
the politicians are anxious to keep them
on the patronage string. But little has
been said about reforms in the service
that are really needed. One needed re-
form has to do with the registered mail
That something is wrong with that branch
of the service is shown in the fact that
four years ago the annual number of par
GELS transmitted through the registered
mail was more than 100000, while last
year the total number was about Il Co.,
600, Notwithstanding a reduction of the
fee from 10 to cents. People are using
the registered mail less frequently. They
desire a safe system Of transmitting
money and other valuabIes, and the reg
istered mail does not give it.
When there is mail robbery, the first
pouches attacked are those containing
registered parcels. The registry is an ad-
vertisement that they contain valuables.
Though the parcels are in the govern
ments care. it does not hold itself re-
sponsible for their safe delivery. When
a mail car is burned and its contents de-
stroyed, the loss of registered parcels must
fall on the senders, Notwithstanding the
government has accepted fee for which
a private corporation would be glad to
guarantee safe delivery All that the gov
eminent does for the fee is to record the
transit of the package, which record the
sender cares nothing about.
In Great Britain the registry fee is 4
cents, and the parcel is insured for the
value of its contents up to sl0 BY pay
ing few cents more. up to % cents, the
parcel may be insured for additional
amounts. up to $3.50. Some other Euro.
pean countries insure registered mail. The
third assistant postmaster general of this
country, in his last two annual reports
has recommended that this governmen,
insure registered packages up TO $40. Blu,
no action looking to the carrying out OF
the recommendation has been taken by
congress. Some years ago a Postmaster
General advised that the system be i'm.

not done to make it more business-lixe.
