no eAILuRe OF LIE TARlFF.
Important Lesson Taught by the
Dingley Law.


The partisan critics OF the Dingley
tariff law. by shutting their eyes TO
every fact and consideration initiating
against their positions, succeed in con-
yincing themselves that the present
deficit Is a permanent one, and that the
new rates forbid the hope of increased
revenue. Some have actually suggested
that the president ought in his coming
message 10 favor revision by congress Of
certain Dingley schedules. But the
claim OF the republican leaders that the
deficiency is due solely 10 anticipatory
importations. finds striking, though in
direct, confederation In the latest state
ment touching our international trade
relations. The low-tariff explanation OF
the figures in question will be studied
with considerable curiosity
tits shown that our total expectations
during the months of August. Septem-
Der and October exceed by about 90 per
cent. those OF the corresponding months
of the preceding year under the Wilson
law. The cry that the Dingley law
would close the foreign markets against
as is refuted by the statistics showing a
marked increase in our sales In every
country Of Importance that has pro-
tested against our new schedules. The
detailed statements is extremely instruc-
tive, but IL can only be referred to here.
Thus Germany, as Is well known, has
been greatly exercised over the alleged
disastrous operation Of the new tariff.
Our exports TO her markets during Au-
gust and September were $19.133, s07, as
against ST., 415,s5i in the corresponding
period OF last year. The increase in our
sales to Great Britain amounts to over
s5,000,000, that In our sales 20 France
TO over $7,O0OOO0, while our sales to
Italy, Belgium and Austria all exhibit
n similarly marked increase. At the
same time there has been an equally
marked decrease in each case in our
purchases.
What is the meaning Of these facts
In the first place, it is plain that the
Dingley law has not led TO our exclusion
from any foreign markets. True, there
IS still agitation in favor of retaliatory
measures, but no one seriously believes
that IL will end in anything but smoke.
The second and equally important les
son Is that the reduction In imports can
not possibly be permanent We are in
deed az present the great creditor Of the
world, but IL is folly to imagine that all
industrial countries viii go on buying
twice the amount OF their sales and set
tie the balance in our favor in gold.
There is bound TO be an increase In our
purchases, and this means more rev
enue TO the treasury. The Dingley law
does insure MS against an adverse bal
ance of trade, but II does not and can
not prevent the government from re.
nlizing adequate revenue from foreign
imports.-Chicago Post.

The showing Of Ss.14i,s deficit in
the government debt statement for the
month Of October is iubilantly accepted
b. the opponents of the Dingley law
as cumulative evidence Of the failure OF
the act as revenue producer But the
officials themselves are inclined 90 quite
the contrary view. The country is rap
idly coming TO the end OF that surplus
stock OF foreign products imported dur
ing the closing days OF the Wilson laws
operation. and normal conditions will
soon be restored. Under such conditions
the collections from customs will be
very largely increased, and IL is now cs-
timatcd that the Increased receipts from
sugar and wool alone will be sufficient

Three New York Roads to Follow the Con-
 soIidated-It Means n Fight Against the
 Trolley Around Gotham.
 New York; May 2S.-The successful experiments of the New York, New Ha- ven and Hartford railroad with the third rail system of electricity have caused the managers of several other railroads In this vicinity to turn their attention to the new motive power. Close upon the Manhattan company, whose plans were detailed last week, come the Erie, Pennsylvania and Long Island railroads, all of which are pre- pairing to take early action.
 The Pennsylvania company already has an experimental line in operation near Philadelphia, although 1t Is not third rail system. The intention of the management Is to follow this up by equippng some of its suburban lines in the neighborhood of New York Trolleys now gridiron the entire ter ritory within few miles of Jersey City and all of the trunk lines have been losing business. The intention now Is to meet the foe on their owr ground the Long Island Railroad con- pany, whose lines pierce Brooklyn at several points and form an intricate network in the suburbs within a radius of twenty-five miles.

 With the exception of $20,000 be- queathed to Butler Ward and few other minor bequests, aggregating not more than $15,000 the entire estate was left to Yale university MT. Ward has retained as his attorney in the case William c. Watson of Batavia, while Hon. Wilson s. Bissell of Buffalo, ex- postmaster general, will appear in the case as the attorney for Yale universi- ty. The contest, it is said, will be made on the ground that at the time MT. Lamson executed the will he was of unsound mind.

are still in demand in northern mar

more satisfaction and comfort than
this one.......One of Ocala's fair

r. X. Terry is. the champion cane
grower of Marion county, as that gen.
tleman has informed US that he, Mr..
T., has just finished grinding cane,
and that many of the stalks averaged
twenty-six to twenty-eight joints, and
that in several instances eight stalks
weighing pounds would grind out
AZ gallont of juice after the top had
been taken off. He says he counted
a number of stalks that contained
thirty joints, and which ground out
five pints of pure juice. Is there any
thing in Marion county that can beat
this?

Never Cuts the Performance.


1t is the custom with many shows
to cut the night performance, that is
omit many of the acts, in order to get
through early and hasten the tearing
down and departure for the next town.
The Great Wallace Show guarantees
never to do this. Mr.. Wallace is a
most conscientious Snowman; he as
serts that money received at night is
worth as much on the dollar as the
day money. and that his patrons are
entitled to just as much for it; he
maintains that he has no right to give
them any less. Plenty of men are
employed to tear down rapidly enough
when the show is out, without having
to pull the canvass down on the heads
OF the spectators. VIII exhibit al

Where is Aver?
To the Editor of the Banner;

To the Editor of the Banner:
The railroad commissioners met
yesterday in Micanopy promptly at
10 a. m, aud many vegetable growers
from Tacoma, Reddick, Mcintosh,
LIVINGSTON aud other places were there
and you can tell the Tue. that
Aver was there. The ball opened by
MIR. Allen, of Mcintosh, reading and
submitting a carefully prepared and
able protest against the present high
rates. Captain Light, of Reddick,
| followed with few facts and figures
backed by clear-cEt arguments. Mr.,
Barlow, of Tacoma, produced ac-
counts Of sales for twelve years back,
showing that freights then were only
about half of what they are now, al
though ear lots are now shipped where
few crates were then. DIR. l.. Mont.
gomery made several speeches and
brought out some grand points and
valuable suggestions, but the Hon
Alfred Aver, of Mcintosh, made III,
speecb of the day, and some think OF
his life. He tore open the veil of Their
temple and gave the commissioners a
rasping that they will never forget
tell you, he made the fur fly, and yet
his manners were so courteous, his
language so polite, and his eloquence
at times so great that no exceptions
could be taken at what he said, and
the commissioners took their medi-
cine like little men, and even thanked
him for it. During his ten minutes
talk the hall was so quiet that the
drop of a pin could have been heard
aud everyone present held their
breath in deepest silence. Every man
in Florida ought to read that speech.
The stenographer took it and the r.
&c can get it, but will it publish it?
No, for it is not built that way.
