A. W. CUNNINGHAM. Reporter.

Humboldt stole a march on the
weather prophet this year and held
her celebration on the 3rd. As re-
suit she had an almost perfect day in
which to celebrate. The wind was
somewhat annoying but it tempered
the heat of the snu, and so was not
out of place. The people began COM
ing in early in the morning and did
not stop until dusk. The parade
came off on time and was the best
ever seen in this county. Nearly
every business house in town had a
float in line and many of them were
highly artistic. J. Barrachman had
an old log cabin representing "Home
Sweet Home" that attracted the at
tention of all. Tholen & Achter, s. G.
Brett, Cunningham q Son, b. S,
Smith, E. II. Leitzback, H. Bragg,
Coan & Kinney, The Racket, o. H.
Brown, each had floats. Geo. Hettin-
ger placed five of his st. Bernard
dogs on a wagon and appeared to have
a cage full of lions. The bicyclists
were out. in full force with their wheels
prettily decorated and the Cuban ar
my was there. Ex-senator Martin
was unable to come but his place was
filled admirably. The bicycle races
were somewhat disastrous to the
Humboldt boys, hut they wanted to
be polite anyway. Bert GOshOrn of

that the first Year of the presidential

lied by the expectation to Europe of

EFree traders who expected support
for their peculiar views from the Eng
lish statistician, Mulhall, will be disap-
pointed to know that he has taken pains
to point out the fact that the eXporta-
tons of the United States have in
creased three times as fast as has her
population during the protective tariff
period. Mr.. Mulhall shows in n recently
published article that while the in
crease in population in the past 20 years
has been IS per cent, the increase in the
value of expectations has been 175 per
cent, and practically all that under a
high protective tariff.

UThe recent visit OF Sir Wilfrid
Laurier to Washington in behalf Of
closer relations between the United
States and Canada is another evidence
that the'"protests" against our tariff

gained standing in the eyes Of other
countries by protecting our own, de-
spite the fact that numerous protests
against the act were presented during
its consideration.

of the coming year to meet running
expenses. 1.-The enormous stock OF
sugar, wool and other articles which
had been brought into the country be-
fore the new law went into effect" said
Mr.. Howell, talking 20 your corre-
spondent, will have been pretty well
used up by the end of the present year,
and the importatons will be resumed.
When this is done think the earnings
of the new law will be very satisfac-
tory. We are now getting $25,0000,000
a month, and the revenue from sugar
alone will be about 100000 while the
increase from other sources will also be
very considerable. SO, it seems to me,
that congress when it looks over the
field and sees what the new law has
done, and what it is likely to do in the
near future, will have no occasion to
regret its action or to enter upon any
further revenue legislation at present

not yet made good their "bluff" to ex-

creased 25 per cent. since the enactment

has been followed by reduction Of o5
per cent. in our importations from those

TIf there was any state in the union
in which the free silver and calamity
cry have been effective in the past few
years it is Kansas. The people of that
state have evidently seen the fallacy of

as result place the state again in the

those low tariff advocates who were ex-

phere with groans about increased
prices TO find that the net average in
crease in prices of articles affected by
