Bounties on Agricultural Exports.


BOunties on Agricultural Exports.
The state grange of Pennsylvania by
unanimous vote, on Dec. 10, 1896, adopted
the report of its legislative committee,
to the effect that 1t is the governments
duty and best policy, so long as it adj
heres to protectonism, to pay export
bounties on all American agricultural
products shipped abroad. The commit
tees report dwels at length upon the
depression in prices of agricultural pro-
ducts, and say it is inconceivable how
any measure of protection offering
tariff on imports can avail in the slight
est degree to benefit the grower of those
crops of which a surplus is produced for
export, and the prices of which are nee
essarily made in the markets of the
world where they are and must continue
to be disposed of.
Since a protective tariff will not help the
farmers. and the grange proposes plainly
and bluntly that a bounty on exports
shall be paid. 1--WE have a right to demand
that the same proportion Of advantage
shall be given to the agricultural industry
that is accorded by the law to any other
in this broad land" says the report And
in so far as the matter of right is con-
eerned, the report is emnently correct.
1T is utterly impossible to effect rem
edy by any tariff, no matter how high,
upon the staple crops" continues the re-
port; but "a bounty on exports could not
fail to raise the price of such products
in the home market to the extent of that
export bounty"
The plan may be very slluring
to the members of the state
grange of Pennsylvania. Bus there
are pointed questions to be asked with
regard to it. The most important ques-
ton is, Where is the money to come
from to pay export bounties on agricul-
tural products?
The statistical abstract of the United
States for 1895, issued by the treasury de-
partment, shows that last year &c per
cent. of the total exports were agricul-
tural products. The total exports amount
ed to $751;, 6O6, 1888, hence the value of ag-
ricultural products exported was nearly
$5S9OO0. 600. It shows also that the aver
age ad valorem rate of duty on dutiable
articles alone was 40.1s per cent, while
the average rate on gross importations
free and dutfable, was 2O.67 per cent. I'VE
have a right to demand that the same
proportion of advantages shall be given
the agricultural industry as is accorded
by the law to any other industry in this
broad land" says the Pennsylvania state
grange. The protective rate under the
present tariff bill, it appears. is 4O.1s per
cent. Would the grange demand bounty
| Of 40.1S per cent. upon agricultural ex-
ports, or would 1t be satisfied with the
average rate upon the gross importations?
In either case, as can be seen, it would
! take millions upon millions of dollars to
! pay the bounty. Where would the money
! come from?

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-fonr
hours; a sediment or settling indicates
an unhealthy condition of the kid
neys. When urine stains linen it is
positive evidence of kidney trouble.
Too frequent desire to urlnate or pain
in the back, is also convincing proof
that the kidneys and bladder are out
of order.

SO often expressed, that DIR. Kilmer's

How a Donkey Found a Mine.

The history of mine discoveries in
the West is full of strange and ms
ing incidents. Many of the most ceIs-
brated mines or lodges have been
found by accident. Some of these ac-
cidental discoveries are .laughable in
the extreme. One of them occurred
in connection with the discovery of
one Of the richest mines in the C1ur
d'Alene country in Idaho. In this
case a common donkey or jackass or
"burro" as one chooses to term it,
was credited with the finding of the
mine.
The Norther Pacific Railways finely
illustrated tourest book Wonderland
'97. has chapter on mining in the
West, in which the incident alluded
to is given. It shows how, from slight
or trivial things, great results may
flow. There are also articles on Vel
lowstone Park, Alaska, cattle raising
etc. By sending six cents in postage

ratiye, and valuable as a school text

The London Times on Mckinley.

4Ae AV4uVA AlWeS On mcAl0ley.
London, June THE Times com
menting editorially this morning in a
rather sarcastic vein upon Secretary
Cages recent declaration as TO the
currency, says:
''Six months have passed since Mr..
Mckinley was elected, yet nothing
has been done to redeem the pledges
to which the business world attached
the chief Importance. The uneasi-
ness Of the business community seems
to have made itself felt in official cir
cles, with the result that we have
Mr.. Cages statements, which are not
much in themselves, but have a
soothing effect on Wall street. 1t is
unfortunate, however, that Mr.. Nc
Kinley has no convictions favorable
to a gold currency, and Secretary
Gage, though sincere, cannot go fas-
ter than the president. AS q matter
of fact, the Wolcott bimetallic mis-
sion is nothing but device for post
poning unwelcome decisions. To
outside observers the government Of
the United States appears to be run
ming grave risks with q wonderfully
light heart. It will not need long
continued drain Of gold to bring the
American treasury face to face with
the necessity Of another loan. Presi-
dent Mckinley thinks that every
thing can be remedied by high
tariff. If the proposed duties fail to
bring prosperity, his natural impulse
will be to raise them still higher, and
any display of strength by the silver
ties will serve to delay still longer the
currency reform desired by the Eas-
tern states"
