every dealer knows that much less

pingIerired RecInrocItr.

Not enough attention is being given to
reciprocity as it has been Dlngleyized In
the proposed tariff bill. 1t is a great scheme
for bringing the foreign nations to their
senses with a round turn, and forcing them
to grant concessions TO Americans with
something to sell. Nominally it is found
ed upon the base that Mr.. Blaine buhded.
But the chances are that Mr.. Blaine would
not recognize the scheme If he could see
II. Mr.. Blaines ex-prlvate secretary ex-
presses the opinion that If that states
man were in the flesh, and were to have
the reciprocity feature of the Dingley bill
read to him, he would smash another hat
upon the committees table, as he did in
the Senate committees room when the
Mckinley bill was under consideration.
Mr.. Blaine made his strong pull In the
way of reciprocity on sugar, making that
article free when imported from those su-
gar producing countries which favored
American products-fiour, and other arti-
Giles. Mr.. Dingley proposes a little some
thing in the sugar line himself. But his
magnanimity halts at a reduction Of per
cent. in the duty!
hostility to the American hog Chairman
Dingley says. Stop that sort of thing,
and let our hog products come in under
favorable conditions, and we will make
it all right with you by reducing the tariff

than one pint from 28 to q cents per dozen

over themselves to take up such a liberal
offer. To France, Chairman Dingley
says, Lower your rates for us, and we
will reduce the rate on chickie from 8 to
cents a pound, and on crude tartar from
IL to cent pound. Spain is offered an
inducement to enter reciprocity arrange
ments in the information that asses skins
will be Put on the free list when imported
from such countries as have entered into
the spirit of Mr.. Dingley's arrangement
and removed a considerable part or the
whole of the duties from American pro-
ducts.
As is pretty well known, reciprocity is a
Blaine idea. Since Mr.. Blaine is dead
probably his ex-private secretary is the
most competent person to say what Mr.
Blaine's opinion would have been with re-
gard to the principle as it has been Ding
leyized. Hence we quote him again:
There never was a more absurd legis,a-
tive proposition offered in the United
States, or elsewhere on earth, than the rec
iprocity section of this tariff bill. But it
is the natural result of the policy of the
committee. Most of the members have
no knowledge of the subject. and they
have persistently declined to receive in

The outlook for a peaceful settlement
of the Cretan difficulty is not encourage
ing. In our dispatches this morning, EN-
peror Francis Joseph of Austria, in his
address from the throne, is quoted as say
ing that he believes the action of the
powers in regard to Greece has a tendency
toward peace, and that he hopes that the
Cretan difficulty will soon be satisfactorily
settled. He is by no means certain, how
ever, that the difficulty will be amicably
adjusted.
And there are good reasons for the
doubt which crops out in his address.
There is mot entire harmony among the
powers At any moment there may be a
rupture in their relations. Great Britain
is not in accord with the announced policy
to coerce Greece, and there is some doubt
as to what the attitude of France and
Italy would be if Great Britain should in
sist upon policy different from that
which Germany and Russia favor.
Greece could not comply with the de-
mand Of the powers if she were disposed
to do so without a revolution. Her peo-
pie insist that she shall maintain the posi-
ton she has taken.
1t Is said that it would take 5000 troops
to bring the Cretans to terms is they
should finally refuse the autonomy offered
them. There are 10000 of them who are wei
armed, and they are well acquainted with
the country. 1t is doubtful if 25,OOo troops
could successfully occupy the island.
But where are the $4,000 troops to como
from? According to the agreement of the
powers each one of them landed GOO sol
diers for the purpose of maintaining the
peace of the island Neither England.
France nor Italy is disposed to increase
her quota. In fact, no one of them feels
IL would be wise to do so because in each
one of these countries there is a strong
public sentiment against any attempt to
force the Cretans to remain subjects of
Turkey. Even Germany refuses to in
crease her quota of troops. and the pow
ers refuse to allow Russia alone 10 I'M
dertake the occupation of the island.
All that can be done by means of diplo-
macy will be done to find a satisfactory
solution of the difficulty. 1t is thought
that no aggressive action will be taken
for at least a week by any one OF the inter-
ested parties, and in that time IT is hoped
that a peaceful way out of the difficulty
viii be found The hope however.

Much of the land along the Mississippi
river which is in danger from the food,
and which will be overlooked If the levees
yield to the food, is the finest and richest
cotton land in the world. 1t is in Arkan-
sas, Mississippi and Louisiana. Some of It
is under water at present, but the pro-
portion is small. Should a considerable
area Of these cotton lands be flooded, the
effect upon the next cotton crop might be

Everybody on the floor of the Senate to-
day was laughing over the funny recep-
ton the two Montana senators had at the
hands of their former colleague. now Sec
rotary of State, says the Washington let
ter of the Chicago Tribune. They went up
yesterday afternoon to recommend a man
for a consulship. Senator Carter was the
spokesman. He presented the applicants
claims in the usual fashion, while his col
league, Senator Lee Mantle, not being a
real republican now, preserved a diplo-
matte silence At the conclusion of Car
ter's Grafton Secretary Sherman electrified
the trio from Montana by stretching
out his hand to the smooth-faced, youth
ful-lool1ing Senator Mantle, and saying:
1T seems to me 1 have seen your face
before. l must have met you some place
At any rate, / shall be glad to consider
your application for the consulate at Car
diff when we get around to it, and will
certainly remember the warm recommend
alton of your senator"
The Secretary of State had forgotten his
former colleague entirely, and it was nee
essary for Senator Carter to press the
real applicant to the front and introduce
him to the secretary, at the same time
explaining that the smooth-faced young
gentleman was Senator Mantle of Mon

Cousin Osborne.

The disappointment of Cousin William
Mckinley Osborne is very keen. He wasn't
happy until he received the appointment
of consul general to London, and he isn't
happy now that he has received it. Gen.
Osborne is a cousin of the President, and
the President has a cousinly affection for
him. While the campaign was in progress
the President told Cousin Osborne that he
should have the London consul general
ship, which was supposed to be the latest
place in the Presidents gift
Immediately after the Inauguration he
was extremely restless and nervous ur-
til the coveted appointment was made. He
had not thought it necessary to inquire
about the income of the office. 1t had
been common talk for years that it paid
anywhere from $4,000 to $4,000 annually.
But when Cousin Osborne got his appoint
ment he was anxious to know just what
he was going to get out of the office, and
he went to the state department for in
formation. There he learned that by or
der of President Cleveland Secretary
Olney had cut down the income of the Of
flee to about $4,000 a year. This had been
done at the request of American mer-
chants, who felt that it was unjust that
they should pay such enormous fees as
had been charged them.
Now Cousin Osborne is interviewing sem
ators with the hope of having the fees
restored. He will interview in vain. The
fees will never be restored. and as 1t will
take about all that Cousin Osborne will
get out of the office to live in any sort of
style in London he will return home, after
four years of office holding, no better off
financially than he is at present.
1t is sad that Cousin Osbornes dream of
wealth should have been so fieeting, and
it is sadder still that few sympathize with
him in his disappointment.

not because capital saw great profit in
them, but because the manufacturers of
mill machinery wanted an outlet for their
surplus machinery. They had encouraged
the building Of southern mills.
This same practical mill man said fur
Their, that one great advantage New Eng
land possessed over the south for the
manufacture of fine cotton goods was a
moist climate. a climate Of that kind is
absolutely necessary for success in the
manufacture of fine cotton goods.
But are there not localities in the south
which have a moist climate-localties
which are admirably situated for cotton
manufacturing? Such localities are found
all along the coast. The climate of this
city Is so moist as to attract general at
tention.
We are inclined to doubt the statement
that the building of cotton mills in the
south has passed the boom" period. All
the indications are that more mills viii

last ten. Only a few days ago we an
nounced in our dispatches that contracts

taken into consideration in order to reach
a satisfactory conclusion in respect to this
matter. 1t is that the south is not in debt,
and is gradually reaching a point at which
she will have money 10 invest in factories.
She will naturally invest st in factories
for the manufacture of her great product.
Therefore not only New England capital,
but also southern capital will be employed
in cotton manufacturing in the south.
The practical New England cotton man
ufacturer, quoted in this article. is no
doubt sincere, but it seems to US that the
facts are against him. There is a strong
and growing belief in both the north and
