SIMILAR TO ARMY SALARIES.

One of the most troublesome ques-
tons before the board considering the
reorganization of the personnel of the
navy relates to the matter of pay al
lowances under the proposed amalga-
nation of the engineer corps with the
line of the navy. The matter was re-
ferred to a subcommittee consisting of
Commander J. N. Hemphill, Lieutenant
A. S. Key and Passed Assistant En-
gineer w. NJ Mcfarland. This com
mittee reported in favor of the adop-
tiontion of army pay for the reorganiz-
ed line and the recommendation has
been practically adopted by the board.
Under the proposed plan of pay, officers
of the grade of rear admiral, who now
get $4,000 while at sea, will be given
$500, the pay of major general, with
whom they rank; commodores will get
the pay of brigadier generals, $500;
captains the pay of colonies, $500;
commanders, that of lieutenant CO.
lonels, $4,000; lieutenant commanders,
that of majors, $500: lieutenants, that
of captains, $4,000; lieutenants junior
grade, that Of first lieutenants, 81, 800;

JAPAN'S TRADE.

In spite of the fact that the market

that Investigations completed at the
Finance Department and published in
the Hochi show that the foreign trade
Of Japan has steadily increased this
year, the figures for the past 10 months
exceeding 3O9,171, 500 yen. Last year
the exports for the same period aggre-
gated 90,So2,732 yen in value, but this
year the amount increased to 131 1872,
200 yen: while imports for this year
amounted to S,O39, 3O6 yen, against
143, AIS. $40 yen for the previous year,
making a total for the two items of
234 ,326,311 yen and 300, III 500 yen re-
spectively. Thus there was an increase
of 74,S45, 1875 yen, of which 4O,279, 46S

THE TARIFF,

The Denver Republican has re-
ceived a letter from a wall known
mining engineer VIII i. o en- route
to the klondyke gold fields. Among
other things this genjl.man SAYS:
A Canadian custom house officer
mas pushed past US, taking with hin
four deputies. lie is to be assisted by
% mounted police 10 collecting dues.
averaging $50 from all miners outfits.
1t seems hard as many will be forced
to return. This las been done to force
the men who plan coming to buy their
outLts 10 Victoria instead OF Seattle,
Portland OF San Francisco.
Ihls engineer apparently thinks
that he has made a great discovery
when he declares that the object OF the
Canadian tariff is to force mel who
propose to 80 to Canada to engage in
mining or other business to purchase
their outfits 10 Canada instead Of the
United States. or course that is it's
object just as it is the object of Ameri.
can tariff laws to compel Americans
and all who come to this country TO
purchase their outfits of AL kinds q the
United States. It il called e~ncourap-
ing Infant indu %nrief," "preserving
the nome market" and the like. In
this country those who favor such a
policy claims that it makes things
cheaper than they would be under a
policy of a tariff for venue only.
though Americans in Canada find
that 1t does not work that way there.
That it does not may be accounted for
by the difference Of climatic condi-
lions that exist in Our Lady Of
Shows.
Why should this mining engineer
express any surprise that the tariff
works as it does in Canada? Surely
he must have sadly neglected to study
the political issue that has been fore
most in his own country to be so iR-
norant as to the effect of tariffs and
their object.
1t is not improbaf le the experience
OF American tariff iu Canada will
cause them to fully realize the bale
1ul e1ects o. our own prohibitive tariff
policy II it does this then the thous-
ands of Americans who are focking
to the kiondyke gold fields will come
back as propagandists of a freer and
more liberal tariff policy in the United
States.-Salt Lake Herald.

CONGRESS OF FARMERS.
New Officers Elected - Important
Amendment to Constitution.


st. Paul, Mimi, Sept. 2.-The farm
ers' national congress Wednesday
morning postponed the election of Off
GERS to hear q paper by f. w. Randall,
secretary of the Minnesota Agricultural
society, on the causes of failure and
success In state fairs. Among other
things he counted state management
and ownership of grounds as essential
to success; also impartial award of
premiums and prompt payment of
same; comprehensive line of exhibits,
strcng amusements, exclusive of all
gambling, and generous local support.
The election of officers followed. Ex-
Gov. w. b. Hoard, of Wisconsin, was
chosen president by vote of 176 to ca
for b. +. Clayton, the present incum-
bent, and S5h for Secretary Stahl.
John M. Stahl was reelected secretary
and n. G. Spalding, of New York, was
made treasurer by reclamation.
st. Paul, Mimi, Sept. 3.-The morn
ing session of the farmers convention
Thursday was given over to choice of
place for next meeting, first vice presi-
dent and action on more resolutions.
Fort Worth, Tex, was chosen almost
without opposition for the next place of
meeting. l.. III. Maxwell, of Louisi-
ana, was chosen for vice president.
An amendment to the constitution
was adopted intended to broaden the
scope of the organization. All institu-
tions and organizations interested in
agriculture may hereafter be repre-
sented by delegates to this Farmers ma
tional congress. A resolution favoring
the government ownership of railroads
was overwhelmingly defeated, receiv-
ing only five or six affirmative votes. A
resolution urging congress to hurry
work on the harbors of refuge on the
great lakes went through without OPP
position.
At the afternoon session a resolution
favoring silver was after debate re-
jected. Adverse report of the commit
tee on resolutions was adopted with
reference to the following subjects:
Government ownership of railroads, the
initiative and referendum, income tax,
and resolution declaring against COR
porate ownership of land for specu-
lative purposes. Resolutions were
adopted as follows: Commencing the
secretary of agriculture for his efforts
in behalf of the dairy industry; favor
ing the grading of butter for export;
favoring reduction of all official sal
aries; providing for committee to re-
port to the next congress a plan for
cooperation between the states for the
prevention of contagious diseases
among domestic animals.

urebs at ONO Stntc fuir.
Columbus, o., Sept. 4.-Presdent Nc
Kinley and party arrived at ten a. m.
Friday us guests of the Ohio state
board of agriculture. They were given
n hearty reception at the depot and
along the route to the Great Southern
hotel. In the afternoon they were es-
corted by the military to the state fair
grounds. 1t is variously estimated that
between $4,000 and 100000 people were
gathered on the grounds to greet the
president, but only u fraction OF this
number were able to hear the brief
speech which he delivered. 1t was
school children's day at the fair, and
thousands of little folks were scat
tered through the crowd. President
Mckinley directed his remarks in part
to them. He said in part:
"If had been asked to select greeting
most agreeable to myself 1t would be that
greeting which the committee has prepared
of the children of the schools OF the state
assembled on these grounds. The presence
OF 10000 school children commands our af-
lection and inspires our hope, and con-
graduate the children of Ohio that they

the state. No other state has higher
common school advantages than the state
of Ohio. And II Is gratifying to know that
a half a million children every day in our
state crowd the docrsteps OF our public
schools In thirst for knowledge to fit them
for the grave and responsible duties Of life.
There Is one thing of which the United
States can proudly boast, and that Is our
great public school system, where the boys
and girls from every walk OF life assemble
I'm fun equality and enjoy equally with all
their fellows the advantages of instruction.
I congratulate you all for that. am glad
to meet these school children here to-day
Chldren's day 1t Is to you now, but in a
little while 1T win be citizens day with all
of you. Upon you in little while will rest
the duty as well as the responsibility OF
carrying on the great political fabric es-
tablished by your fathers and bearing the
glorious old banner they have so proudly
borne in the past. God bless the school
children of Ohio. God bless the school chill
dren Of America, and guide them to intel
ligence and virtue and morality and pa
triotism, and with these elements DOM
inating our citizenship our institutions are
safe and our republic may be glorious for
ever" lGreat applause.
At the conclusion of the presidents
speech he was the recipient of an ova-
ton from the school children and as
sembled multitude. Brief speeches
were also made by Secretary Alger and
Senator Hanna. After driving over the
grounds the presidentialparty returned
to the hotel. In the evening compile
mentary dinner was given by the state
board of agriculture to President Nc

FUSION IN NEBRASKA.
Three state Conventions Unite ON o.
Single Ticket.

Lincoln, Neb., Sept. 3.-As predicted
at the start by the party leaders, the
three parties, democratic, populist and
silver republican, joined hands in flu
sion and the ticket placed in the field
is: For supreme judge, John j. Sulli-
van (dem.), Columbus; for one state
university regent, +. Won Forell, of
Kearney (pop); for the other regent,
George L. REMOVER, of Wisner (silver
rep.).
Many delegates maintain that the fu-
sion was perfectly harmonious, while
there are others who claim that there
may yet be dissension on the silver re-
publican side, as about one-third of
those delegates went home before flu
sion was effected. For awhile in the
three conventions Thursday morning
it looked rather precarious for har-
mony, and it was not until the an
nouncement that the democrats had
agreed with the silver republicans to
substitute John j. Sullivan for w. ii.
Thompson that signs of fusion began to
appear. Even then it was not until
Judge Neville urged the endorsements
of Mr.. Sullivan that the populists gave
in. At noon the agreement to fuse was
finally reached and the rest of the pro-
ceedings were of short duration. 1t be-
came very evident near the close of the
convention that neither Scott, Neville
nor Thompson could be nominated by
any two of the conventions, and the
maneuver of the democrats in substi-
tuting Sullivan was considered n coup
d'etat that cut short what might have
resulted in long-drawn, knotty con-
vention, full of fight and ultimately sep
arating the three parties so widely that
fusion would have been an unknown
condition for years to come. This is
the opinion freely expressed on every
hand. There were Is counties unrep-
resented in the populist convention and
about the same number absent from the
other gatherings.
Lincoln, Neb., Sept. 3.-The confer
ence committee of the populists, silver
republicans and democratic conven-
tons, after holding sessions that lasted
until three o'clock Thursday morning
anu iuilihS W aBiSc upon ~ ti'hS', 'hh'c
the following report to the three con-
yentions:
1--WE recommend that the three conven-
lions meet separately and ballot for judge.
All nominations shall be presented TO the
three conventions and balloting shall con-
tnue until one man shall receive a major
ity OF two conventions Each ballot shall
be announced to each of tho other con-
ventions before another ballot Is taken.
The regents shall DO given to the parties
which do not secure the Judge"
The report was adopted by the demo-
cratic convention, but the committee
was not discharged.
The populists adopted the cottage
home for their party emblem, the same
symbol as that of the populists Of Colo
RADIO. The silver republicans adopted
the liberty bell with crack in it.
