Dust for the Farmers' Hyes

When Mr.. Dingley and the Hanna
campaign contributors announce that
the farmers Of the country are to be
protected from foreign competition by
a return to Mckinley duties" the repe-
tition of a hoary false pretense so wear
les the farmers that they are almost
too tired to smile at the humor of pro-
tecting them from the competition of
people who are their chief customers.
Last year our farmers exported $685.
000. 900 worth of cotton, wheat, corn, pro-
visions and other products, every dol
lar of which was necessarily sold In open
market, in competition with the like
products of the world. while our i'm
ports have been merely fragmentary.
The treasury statistics show that in ten
years since 1886 our farmers have ex-
ported nearly 81. 900, ,000, 900 worth of their
staples, bearing the burden of pracN-
cally the whole carrying trade of the
country. The treasury statistics also
show that each average family of these
producers now has an annual toll Of
$34. so in cash taken from its product by
the federal government alone-the same
government which II now to be used as
a means of giving campaign contrlbu-
tors license to take all they can grab of
the rest!
Mr.. Dingley seems now fully and deep
ly persuaded that he Is statesman
and diplomat, at whose convenience
black will grow white and the most in
credulous will believe the incredible.
This Is curious delusion. 1t will be re-
moved later on, and the farmers will do
their share towards removing it.-New

THE CITY COUNCIL TODAY
A Number Of Important Matters to Be
Considered
The New Boiler Inspection Ordinance-The
nsyor and the Board Of Health Ap-
pointed-UnempIoy eds Relief

The meeting Of the city council to-
day promises to be an interesting one
Councilman Baker will introduce the
ordinance prepared last week providing
for the inspection of steam boilers and
the appointment of board of engineers
and boiler inspector. There is likely to
be debate on the measure, and much
opposition to the salaries proposed
$3.50 for the inspector, and $10O for the
deputy. AS the expense is Increased by
the addition of one man, any way,even IL
the measure passes, the salaries will
probably be cut to $100 and SIS, re-
spectively. Councilman Baker will also
ask that another name be substituted on
the board of engineers in place of Nc
Aleer, who was recommended for the
place. as that gentleman is in his en-
ploy, and he does not wish to have any,
one on the board who is in any way con-
nected with him or his establishment,
as it would give grounds for criticism.
The mayor will also probably send in
message returning without approval
the ordinance providing for the appoint
ment of members of the board of health
by the city council There is a
4dCStiOh do " WnttucT the ordnance
can be passed over the veto. While the
ordinance passed the council by unani-
nous vote, Mr.. Nickel afterwards
stated that he voted for it under mis-
understanding, and tried to secure a
reconsideration, but was unsuccessful
President Silver also explained his vote
ir sarcastic vein, and 1t has since been
ascertained that the action of the coun-
ell was taken without any consultation
with it's presiding officers commit
tee of the board of health will also be
on hand to enter their protest against
the reflection cast upon them by the
councils action, and 1t Is expected that
their arguments will have considerable
weight. There was some talk about the
city hall the latter part Of the week
that at least one of the councilmen, now
that the true inwardness of the whole
matter had been shown up as a pollti-
cal scheme pure and simple and an eff
fort to secure patronage to pay off po-
litical debts, would not vote to pass the
ordinance over the veto. Should there
be three votes against the ordinance it
would fail, as 1t requires three-fourths
vote to pass over a veto any measure
which requires two-thirds vote to pass
in the first instance.
A message will also probably be sent
In by the mayor in regard to taking
some measures for the relief of the un-
employed, and asking that some pro-
vision be made for securing the use of
Hazards pavilion for the mass meeting
on Wednesday night.

Unbalanced by Drink

A telephone message to the police sta
tion yesterday afternoon asked that an
officer be sent at once to TIE Hamilton,
a boarding house on Sixth street oppo-
site Central park, that a crazy man was
terrorizing the inmates. On arrival 1t
was found that young man. who gave
his name as William Howard, was walk
ing about in the yard, muttering and
gesticulating. Howard has been room
ing at the house for some time, being
here from the east for his health, and Of
late has been drinking heavily, SO much
so that he was in condition bordering
on delirium tremens.
To the officer Howard said that he was
tired of life and had resolved to commit
suicide. His statements were rambling
and incoherent. and 1t was deemed. best
to take him to the receiving hospital for
treatment. DR.. Hagan attended him
and administered sedatives, with the
result that by evening Howard had so
far recovered that he was allowed to go
home.
