The Wilson Laws Failures.

Now that we are about to bid adieu
to the Wilson law it may not be I'M
interesting to point out some OF its
failures since it is impossible to say any
thing good in taking leave ola measure
which has brought such distress 10 the
country and the treasury. The deficit
of 1925, 900 which it had made up to the
time of McKinley's Inauguration has
been somewhat reduced by the enor-
NOUS importations of the past three
months which we're made in order to
escape duties under the new tariff law.
Notwithstanding the increase of re-
ceipts by reason of this flood of impor-
tation since the inauguration of
President Mckinley, the customs, in
ternal revenue and total receipts under
this law have been much less than in
the corresponding months of the history
of the Mckinley law. This is especially
interesting and important because OF
the statements made from time to
time by the democrats to the effect
that the Wilson law was more success
full as a revenue producer than the
Mckinley law. The absolute falsity of
this statement is shown by the official
figures covering the receipts OF the
Wilson law from the beginning of it's
operations down to the present time
and comparing those with the receipts
under the Mckinley law in the cores
ponding months of it's existence. The
Wilson law has now been in operation
thirty-four months. In those thirty
four months the customs receipts
aggregated 1857 ,465, 248, while i'll the
first thirty-four months of the Mckinley
law the customs receipts were $548,
49,, 414. The internal revenue receipts
under the Wilson law in it's first thirty
four months were 1892, 722, 453, and in
the first thirty -four months of the
Mckinley law were $433, 782, 45S. The
total receipts under the Wilson law in
it's first thirty four months, ending
June 80, 1897, amount to 1901, 200, 652,
while the Mckinley law in it's first
thirty -four months produced $1,04l,-
O48,667 balance of more than $l37,-
100000 in favor of the Mckinley law.

IT is rumored that Mr.. Bryan will
find himself so busy in Nebraska dur
ing the coming campaign that he will
not have time to go to Ohio for those
speeches which be promised. The fact
is, the Ohio convention gave William
j. cold shoulder by emitting to do
anything for him except to give him
" three cheers" when his name was
brought to the front. Whether Ohio is
tired of Bryan, or Bryan is tired of
Ohio, is little uncertain, but there is,
nevertheless. possibility that they
may not pull together in harmony this
fall

A STAMP tax upon stocks and bonds
is one of the latest additions to the
tariff bill and one which will be most
popular with the people. 1t was Of
fered by the republicans in the closing
DAYS of the discussion upon that meas
ure and promptly adopted. 1t is be-
lieved that by this process $12,O0O,OOO
or $l3,OOO,OOO per annum will be added
to the revenues of the government, most
of which will be collected from the
class of people who make business OF
dealing in stocks and bonds and other
securities of this character.

THE statements Of the fiscal year
lust ended show that the agricultural
element of the country has enjoyed
greatly improved condition during the
past year, while other statements re-
ceived are equally gratifying as to the
prospects for the coming year. The
expectations of breadstuffs during the
year ending June 80, 1897, amounted
to $3.50, 1888, 1928 in value, against $136,
846,8 45 in the fiscal year ending June
80, 1896, and O,967,758 in the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1895. This is an
increase Of $53, 100000 in the pockets
of the farmers for the year just ended
for breadstuffs alone, as compared with
the preceding year, and an increase OF
$79,OOO,OO0 compared with the year
1895. The expectations of cattle for
he fiscal year just ended amounted to
out 100000 more than in the pre-
ng year. Fresh beef increased
100000, hams $3,000,O00.

a number of the old soldier bows are
expecting to go to Chicago tomorrow
Thursday to attend the Logan day
exercises The local post of the G.. A.
r. has been notified that arrangements
have been made to place the visiting
delegations at the head of the marching
columns. The statue of Logan is on
the Lake front park.
The Grand Army of the Republic will
have the right of the line in the parade,
posts and comrades from other de-
partments leading. The visiting com
rades will form on Michigan avenue,
between Twelfth and Fourteenth
streets, the right resting on Twelfth
street. Posts of the department of
Illinois will form in numerical order
on Michigan avenue, the right resting
on Fourteenth street. Every comrade
is asked andurged to appear in uniform.
Those who cannot procure uniforms
should wear dark clothing, with black
hats.
All should report at the points desig-
mated not later than . o'clock. The
column is expected to march at 2:30
p. m. sharp.
The march will be directly north on
Michigan avenue, past the monument,
where the column will be reviewed by
the president of the United States and
other distinguished officials and citi.
zens. When the head of the column
reaches Randolph street, the Grand
Army will take position on the cas-,
side of Michigan avenue, where it viii

signed under some arrangement to
announced in the Chicago papers on

The work upon the tariff bill IN con-
ference has been as unsatisfactory to
the trusts as was that Of the house and
senate. Every step in the framing of
this bill has shown determination on
the part of those in charge of it to
avoid the mistakes which the demo
Gratis made in the framing of their tariff
bill and by which that party gave to
the trusts, and especially the sugar
trust, such enormous advantages. OF
course the democrats have tried to
make it appear that the republicans
were laying themselves liable to as
grave charges as were successfully
made against their own party and tariff
bill, but have failed in SHAT attempt,
and there is good reason to assert that
the new bill when it gets upon the
statute books will be less satisfactory
to the trusts than any measure enacted
in many years.

Herbert Beals Hurt.

The following taken from Henne-
pin, ILL.,, paper will be of interest to
those who were acquainted with Her
bert Beals, who formerly lived here:
We are called upon this week to
record another accident to one Of our
citizens, which was of quite a serious
nature. Last Thursday morning while
Herbert Beales was at work at Dr.
Davis he was engaged upon scaffold,
and while working with his back to
the building the plank upon which he
was standing slipped, causing Mr..
Beals to first fall against the side OF
the house, and before he could regain
his equilibrium, he fell from there to
the ground, distance of between
seven and eight feet. He struck the
ground on his left shoulder, breaking
two of the bones of the shoulder. He
Immediately went to DR.. Nc Cormick's
Office and had the bones set and the
shoulder properly bandaged, and as a
matter of course time alone can &C.
complish the rest. 1t will keep him
from work for several weeks at best.
He is the same gentleman who was
thrown from a bicycle in 1893, and
severely injured about the head. The
first accident occurred while be was at
work on the addition to the court
house, and caused him the loss of
several weeks from his labor

THAT element Of the democratic
party which is opposed to the free and
unlimited coinage of silver finds much
encouragement in recent developments.
In every state where campaigns are in
prospect the gold democrats have or
ganized and will run separate tickets.
The developments which have attend
ed the preliminary organizations indi-
cate that they will rally to the gold
standard a much larger percentage OF
the democracy than they did III the
last falls campaign. In many counties
in Kentucky the attendance at the
gold democratic conventions was
larger and more enthusiastic than that
of the convention of the free-silver
wing of the democratic party.

The developments at the recent
populist convention make it perfectly
apparent that the day of fusion be-
tween populists and democrats is past.
That convention, which represented a
very large proportion of the populist
element of the United States, declared
definitely and vigorously against fur
Their fusion with the democratic party,
or any other party, and it will be
strong enough to control the delibera-
lions of the party in its national or
ganization in the future. This action
peels off, so to speak, with the populist
contingent of the democracy Of 1896,
and there is no prospect that the dem
ocrats will be able to substitute any
thing in it's place. With the loss of the
popuIist wing on the one side and the
gold democracy on the other, the dis
membered democracy will make but
little progress.

PRESIDENT Nc KINLEY'S PROPOSE
ton to send to congress a message
recommending legislation which should
enable him to appoint a currency COM
mission. has met with very favorable
comment from all parts of the country
and representatives of all parties. The
sentiment generally expressed is that
commission wisely chosen could
arrive at more accurate and correct
conclusions as to the legislation which
should be enacted than any committee
of congress would be likely to attain,
as it would be impossible to group into
a single committee of members of con-
gress, men as thoroughly familiar with
all branches of this subject as those
who could be selected from the bust
ness communities of the country by the

WE don't see any comment by Ham
Utley, Of Utley's Dollar Weekly, on the
fact that the farmers Of Nebraska, the
Dakotas, Kansas and Minnesota are
paying off their mortgages and debts
faster the past two or three years than
they have before in the ten or more
preceding ones. He has howled hard
times so much that one would think
that when even so small straw as
$18O,OOO,OO0 paid debts in that short
time would excite at least an explana-
ton of its falsity, as he probably be-
lieves it. Come, Ham, you are letting
an important opportunity slip by.

IT is still understood that MESA

IT is still understood that message
will be sent to congress as soon as the
tariff bill is out of the way asking that
the president be given authority to ap-
point a commission to consider the
currency question and frame measure
for a general currency law. The delay
in sending in this message has been
due to the fear that this action might
precipitate currency discussion and
thus delay action upon the tariff bill,
but there is reason to believe that the
message will be forthcoming as soon as
the tariff bill is disposed Of Whether
it will be possible to pass a measure OF
this character through the senate with
out very great delay is of course un-
certain, but if republican votes can
pass it it will become a law promptly.
It is felt that commission selected
from the best students of finance in
the country will be able to frame a
much more satisfactory currency meas
ure than would probably be prepared
by any general committee of congress,
which could not, of course, be made up
of men who have made lifelong study
of this complex and difficult subject.

Rhode opera House Filled Again Satur-
dav Night


dav Night.
The William Owen company is gone.
1t closed one of the most successful
weeks at the Rhode opera house which
has been the good fortune of any COM
pany here in long time. 1t may be
set down in truth that Kenosha is a
lover of the Shakespearean plays.
Hamlet was the bill for Saturday
night, and Notwithstanding the big
counter attraction at the Sanitarium
which took away many of those who
had been attending the plays during
the week, the house had its usual
crowd. The play was greatly enjoyed
and was very enthusiastically received.
At the end of one of the acts Mr.. Owen
was called before the curtain twice be-
fore the audience seemed satisfied and
ceased it's clamor. Mr.. Owen, as the
melancholy Dane, was splendid. His
work was of high order and satisfac-
tory in the extreme. Miss Ashton took
the part of Ophelia" admirably we'll,
while Miss Eytinge as the queen was
very good, also.
The company will be sure of a good
patronage at any time it ever returns
to this city.
