THE NEW TARIFF BILL.

The new tariff bill which is now being
framed by the Ways and Means Commit
tee is rapidly reaching stage of compile
ton. 1t will certainly be ready before
the extra session of Congress is called by
President elect Mckinley, which will
be about the middle of March. From
what we can learn, the new tariff meas
ure will be thoroughly protective but at
the same time conservative and satistac-
tory. The object of the Republican men,
bers of the committee is to construct a
bill that will protect all classes of Amerl-
can industries and furnish enough revenue
to defray the expenses of the government
and leave surplus for reducing the pub
lie debt. 1t has been clearly Gemorstra-
ted that the Wilson German bill as a rev.
enue producer is a complete failure. The
first twenty-nine months of its operations
resulted in deficiency of Sl26,57I lSS. %;
that. is, the expenditures of the national
government exceeded the revenues derlv-
ed from the Wilson bill to the foregoing
named amount. The indications are
that as long as the Wilson bill is in force a
deficiency will continue to embarrass the
government. Therefore no delay should be
exercised in the enactment Of q new tariff
law

IT is now positively announced that
leading Silver Senatols-Jones, of Arkan-
sas; Morgan, of Alabama; Bacon, Of
Georgia and number of Representa-
lives, will not subscribe to or aid in tech
nicalities to prevent the Republicans from
carrying out their policy as outlined in
the Presidential campaign. THIS is very
sensible course to pursue. If the financial
and tariff policies of the Republican party
are for the good of the country no man
should obstruct those policies. If they
are not wise the only way to demonstrate
it will be by giving them fair trial.

The Augusta (Ga. )Chronicle says: "A
writer in the New York Press tells some
interesting anecdotes Of Mr.. Brush of cleo
trio fame and fortune. At one time the
poor inventor offered his whole plant for
800. 1t was scornfully refrsed. The
50, 500 invested at that time would have
later earned $4,000. Two old maids
who noticed the genius of Brush mortgaged
their property for $4,000 and took stock
for it. They realized presently an income
of $4,000 month. Brush, we are told,
WAS too poor to pay the fees of his patent
lawyer. They amounted to $1,000, and
the inventor wanted to pay in stock of
company. This the lawyer declined at first
but eventually, finding it impossible for
Brush to pay in any other way, consented
to accept the stock which he carelessly toss
ed into his safe and forgot all about it. In
due time it was fished out and the lawyer
became rich on it. He lives in a palace
in Detroit. The history of the world is full
of just such lost and gained opportunities.

The American Apple Abroad.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 12.-The
American apple made a great market for
itself abroad last year. Our Consul Gen
eral at Frankfort says that the victory has
been one of superior quality rather than
cheapness; and the German agricultural
papers make the astonishing statement
that no less than 5000, 900 double centners
of our apples-more than twenty times the
import of any previous season-came into
the German Empire last year. The Con-
sul-General thinks this gain of great
market may be made permanent if ship
pers are careful of their quality
Consul Monaghan, at Chemnits, says
the whole empire is alarmed by the apple
imports, and that the keeping qualities of
the best winter variety astonished the Ger
man growers. Even from England, where
the American apple is well known, there is
surprise at the great volume of recent i'm.
ports, Consul Meeker, at Bradford send
ing the State Department newspaper ex-
tracts indicating that they have actually
glutted the rnarket.-New York Sun.

a dispatch from Cuba says that Captain
General Weyler has donated TO the public
treasury the sum of 100000 francs out
of his private funds toward defraying the
expenses of the Spanish government in
prosecuting the war. If his financial as
sistance is no more effective than his mil
1tary efforts towards suppressing the in
surrection, his money will be thrown
away.

MARsHAL MARTINEZ CAMros, former
Captain General Of Cuba, has announced
his willingness to resume command of the
island if he could thereby aid in bringing
about a speedy conclusion of the war. He
could do SO by exercising good, common
sense and recognizing the fact that Spain
cannot retain control of Cuba. As soon
as this is realized by Spain the war will
come to termination, and not till then.

THEnew tariff bill will stop the impor-
tation of hay from Canada, which is now
disastrously competing with the hay OF
our section. 1t will also keep Canadian
lumber out of our markets and make the
lumber business of this section active and
profitable again. Mexican and Canadian
cattle will also be excluded from our mar
kets by duty that will protect our home
cattle raisers.

IT will be gratifying to office-seekers to
know that President Cleveland has con-
Guided to make no further extensions Of
the civil service system during his admin
istration. The statement has been made
on the authority of President Proctor, Of
the Civil Service Commission. A few
more extensions of the system would
make the old Democratic doctrine, ''to
the victors belong the spoils," thing Of
the past.

One of the latest devices for running a
sewing machine or other light machinery
is a series of gear-wheels in casing, a steel
spring being coiled on the shaft Of the larg-
est wheel, the winding being done by
means of level extending in front of the
machine on the end of which is seat for
the operator, theaction of rising and sitting
down winding the spring, the mechanism
being controlled by brake on the fly
wheel.
