SANITATION AND HUMAN LIFE.

Nowadays Cities Are Nearly as
Healthy the Country.
In recent letter on what sanitation
has done for human life Prof. Brewer,
of Yale university, said that no one
doubts that human life has been pro-
ICnged by the application of science
in the last so years. How much mathe-
matically this amounts to in years, In
per cent, is an unanswerable question.
We can never have the data in figures.
Even if we had our vital statistics COM
piled for that period men would differ
as to the relative values of the several
factors of this problem. Our great
cities would not eXist-they could not
exist-without the aids of science. We
have had the ancient Egyptian and
Greek and Roman civilizations, which
were pagan. and later Christian civiliZa-
ton, and all were powerleSs to convert
practices. Between the epidemics that
ragged from time to time and the high
death rate in the best years, the popula-
ton of Europe as a whole probably
scarcely increased at all for 1000 or
200 years. This century came in with
out a single city in Christendom with
"
but $4,000; London and the suburbs,
in 1901, S64,s45. The other great cities
had less than 100000. Great cities
could not endure then. First, the peo-
ple could not he fed. Then. most of the
food had to be produced within 20 miles
of the place of consumption. Science
has now made it possible to transport
food half way around the globe and
has discovered new methods of preser-
yation as well. City population was not
elf-perpetuating. Man died off: the
death rate was continually high and
from time to time there was death by
pestilence. Even where there were
sewers they were to drain the ground of
water rather than to carry away sewage.
Now cities are made nearly as healthy
as the country-Scientifc and Mining

No such Word as Economy In the Re

NO SuCn NCE0 n0 economy IN the ne

Instead of saying one word upon the
necessity of economy in his message
to congress, President Mckinley en-
couraged the very extravaganza that

He declares at the start that eve

not only for the ordinary expenses Of
the government. but for the prompt
payment of liberal pensions"
The cost of pensions has increased
SOS, o00. 900 in ten years. This is the
full amount of the deficiency for the
current year. In other words, II con-
gress, 81 years after the close of the
war, had put reasonable limit upon
pensions-as Gen. Grant and President
Garfield both declared it should do
the present tariff bill, even after the
income tax had been pullified, would
have yielded revenue enough.
Our pension list of $14o,0oo,ooo now
exceeds the total of the combined
military pension lists of Europe. II has
more than doubled since 1886. 1t costs
more than some of the greatest stand
ing armies in Europe.
Was there any necessity, outside OF
the old soldier demagogy, for the
president to lug in a reference to "the
prompt payment of liberal pensions"
in the face of yawning deficit in the
reyenues?-N. Y. World.

WOOLLY QUESTIONS.
some Things for Mr.. DIngley to Ac-
count For.

count For.
Mr.. Dingley has some hard things to
say, in his report on the tariff bill, about
spectators importing WOOL" into
whose pockets, he says, the money
enormous wool tax his bill provides
for) will be turned that should go into
the treasury. In this connection we
have fair question to ask of the chair
man of the ways and means committee,
who is himself interested in wooden
manufacture. He is said, by Washing
ton correspondents, to be 'touchy''
about this fact, but it is fact. Through
his family, if not directly, he is inter-
ested in a wooden mill at Lewiston. Has
that mill been stocking up with a years
supply of free wool, and will it buy
every pound of free wool it can get hold
of before the Dinglcy tax goes into eff
feet? Will it, in Mr.. Dingley's words,
turn into it's own pockets and those of
the Dingley family the money which, he
says, ought to go into the treasury ?
On this we have to say that, if the Ding
ley mill is not doing this, it Is not doing
what all the other mills are doing. Ii
its manager is not taking every bale of
free wool he can put his hands on he is
incompetent, and should be discharged.
If the Dingley mill is not getting its
wool free while it can it will have to go
out of business. There is nothing wrong
about importing wool in advance of the
duty. What is wrong is to get up in
congress and condemn, with great show
of virtuous indignation, the thing which
you are doing yourself.-N. Y. Post.

OPINIONS AND POINTERS.

The Fifty-fifth congress cannot
make itself popular by applying the gag
rule and passing appropriations at the
rate of $45o.Oo0 a minute.-St. Paul
Globe.
The wooden manufacturers want
to reduce the Dingley rate on raw wool
ore-half. The wool growers want to
double it. Here's a pretty row.-Utica
Observer.
The term most often applied to
the Mckinley bin by its opponents was
ubiquitous" The favorite adjective of
the critics of the Dingley bill is bar
barous."-Buffalo Times.
The new tariff bill will increase
the duties by sir 49,, SGT. and will swell
the profits of the beneficiaries by as
much as the combinations can squeeze
out of the people.-St. Louis Republic.
The Dingley bill has done more
in three days to reconstruct and
strengthen the democratic party than
all the thermometers and conciliators
and managers could have done in year.
Baltimore News.
The Mckinley tariff was intro
duced as a measure to reduce the rev.
enues, which had been redundant, and
it had that effect, while now. when the
revenues are regarded as insufficient,
it is proposed to reenact substantially
the same tariff in order to increase

The Wilson tariff was great blessing
to the people during the hard times. 1t
saved them many millions in taxes be-
cause it enabled them to purchase the
necessaries of life much more cheaply
than would have been possible had a
republican law been on the statute book
during the past three years. The deficit
is a terrible thing in the eyes of the adj
vocates of tariff robbery. but It helped
the people of the country to tide over q
most trying period of depression. and
they can hardly fail to remember it
gratefully when they are paying Ding
ley prices, which promise to be even
worse than the memorable Mckinley
prices. Yes, it was fortunte for the
people that they had the Wilson law
during the period of distress that fol-
lowed the precipitation of the panic of
'93. which was caused by republican leg
islation.-Binghamto IN. " Leader.

TnxIng NecensarIes.

If increased taxes upon the neces.
saries of life shall not bring with them
increased wages for labor the men who
are framing the new tariff are only SOW
ing the wind and will surely reap tho
whirlwind. The people of the country
will not submit to increased taxes upon
that which they must consume unless
they realize compensating increase
in the wages of labor. If in this regard
the new tariff shall fail the revolution
of million majority against the Nc
Einley bill in 1890 will be repeated
against the Dingley bill in 1898. We
beg the trainers of the new tariff bill to
read the impressive lessons of the past.
and TO remember that never in all the
history of this country were the people
so sensitive as to taxation end so in
ciined to revolutionary action as they
are to-day. a tariff that taxes the nee
essaries of life without increasing the
wages of labor To the full measure of the
increased exactions put into il must
provoke revolution. and another revoin-
ton against protective tariff wonId
doom protection to death from which
there could be no resurrection.--Phil-

a CUNNING DECEPTION.
8Oyv the DinEley Committee stuck I
the Trusts.

8Oyv the DinEley Committee stuck 20
the Trusts.
It viii be observed that the advocates
| of the Dingley bill are careful to speak
of the sugar differential as one-eighsh
OF cent pound, or 1914 cents per 10o
pounds. By the ''diiferential" is meant
the extra duty put on refined sugar for
the benefit of the sugar trust. Refined
sugar under the present law pays 12H
cents per hundred more duty than raw
sugar. But this means 1914 cents more
than raw sugar of the lowest as well
as the highest grade. This ''differen-
tial" ought not to have been in the bill.
II was put there by traitorous senator's
who called themselves democrats CO.
operating with the republicans. On ac-
count of it the republicans denounced
the bill as trust bill' because it had
cut down the Mckinley differential only
IS per cent.
In spite of their denunciation of the
trust bill of 1894, they are willing to ad-
init that their bill contains the same
differential as that of 1894. This, how
ever. is a deception. The differential is
larger in the Dingley bill, and those
who understand the subject know it.
The tax on raw sugar testing as de-
grees by the polariscope is one cent a
pound, or a dollar per 100. The tax on
1efned sugar is s1.s71a per 100 pounds,
or, in decimals, $1.s75. Thus refined
sugar is taxed seven-eighths of dollar
per 100 pounds more than raw sugar of
the lowest grade. Under the present
law 1t is only 1914 cents per 100 pounds,
iii addition to the 10 per cent. ad val
orem on raw sugar.
1t is true that the tax on raw sugar
in the Dingley bill is on q sliding scale.
For each degree over IS there is added a
tax of 3-100 of a cent a pound, so that
by the time we get to 100 degrees, the
tax amounts to $1.75 per 100 pounds,
and 1917 cents added to make the duty
on refined sugar $1.s75. But this takes
no account of the smaller tax on sugar
less than 100 degrees. In point of fact,
if we go back to 1890, when this sliding
scale was in use before, there was no
sugar imported testing 100 degrees, nor
yet any at 80 degrees. There was a
small quantity at 50 degrees, but all
imports above "a were comparatively
unimportant. On the other hand, there
were imported 35O,Ooo,OOO pounds test
ing 81 and IS degrees, and nearly 400,-
100000 pounds testing 90 degrees. Be-
low "a degrees the qualities imported
were smaller, but still considera BILE, ex-
tending all the way to and including
IS degrees. The rate then ranged from
$1.4o to S2.75 per 100 pounds, the latter
fer sugar testing 100 degrees, but the
average tax on the whole was about
two cents a pound, or about equal to
that imposed on sugar ut 90 degrees.
Let US apply this 90 degree test to
the differentials. Under the Dingley bill
sugar at 90 degrees pays $1.45 per 100
pounds. Taking this as an average,
and subtracting it from $1.s7A, we
have 42k cents per 100 as the true diff
ferential in favor of the trust.-Louis-
