rHE DINGLEY BILL.

We have long been trying TO get some
Dingleyite to tell Us exactly chen the
famous tariff for revenue is going to
produce revenue, and We at first
thought that the Tribune's elaborate
article on the subject on Thursday
would give rs a definite dase; but It
miserably fails Us. November was to
be a great revenue mouth, but all that
is now claimed for it is that it will pro-
duee ''almost" enough TO meet the
months expenses. Not a deficit, you
observe-that is q hateful Word-but
almost enough. Then we read on and
find that therefs stair ground for hope"
that sby the end Of the year" the Ding
ley tariff elegantly called By the Trib-
une Hthe revenue bill'1 viii sbegin to
return enough to meet current expen-
ditures at the ordinary rate This
looks encouraging, but We are instantly
reminded that sthe disbursements in
January" are usually larger than in
most months so there viii be mo Oe-
casiOn for disappointment" il there is
q deficit in January. too. There the
matter is left hanging, and We are as
much in the dark as ever as to when
the revenue is to begin. Mr.. Mckinley
told rs on March 4 that We were 70
have sufficient revenue without delay,
hindrance, or PostPonement." The de
fcit for the fiscal year to date is 49,
100000, and there viii be no occasion
for disappointment, the Tribune says,
if It amounts TO s50.OO0.OOO By the end
Of January. The bigger the deficit, the
more cheerful" the republicans. With
the finances in such q snarl it Is certain
that the country would not dare put
incompetent democrats in charge

May Raise a aIunetary barrier.

May hais6 Monetary Barrier.
The Vienna correspondent Of the
London Times telegraphing with ref
erence to the statement made by Count
GOluchOwski, the Austro- Hungarian
foreign minister, in his recent address
to the delegations, when he appealed to
all Europe to unite against the "de-
structiVe competition now carried on
against US by transcOntinental coun-
tries" gives the opinion of an "excep-
tiOnally competent and well-informed
friend" that since Lord Salisbury's re-
lection Of the proposals Of the Wolcott
monetary commission, the trade barrier
between the European and American
continents is "likely to be forestslled
by a monetary barrier raised by Amer
lea, which would hasten the advent of
American prepOnderance."
The authority cited by the CORE
spondent of the Times predicts "the
adoption Of the silver dollar as the
standard coin from the North Pole to
Patagonia, which would be a powerful
lever in the realization Of the Pan
American programme Of the politicians
Of the United States"

The St Louis Journal II Agriculture
ia an editorial suggests that oHicial
inertia IS the explanatiOn @ The fail
ure Of congress to provide herstolors
for postal savings banks in the United
States. It says.
She agitation In favor Of the estab-
Hshmsnt Of postal savings banks in
this country is gaining force a3d vol
unae daily aud viii continue 70 do 50
until the national government reeog-
nizes their need and bosfs to the pub
lie viii There Is no questioning the
advantages conferred upon the work
ing classes BY savings banks. but on
-cioIdom is always slow TO follow public
opinion in matters where changes in
governmental methods are concerned.
It either shrinls from the performance
OF new duties, shfrks the action neces-
sary to the establishment Of machinery
for new departments, or fears to antaR-
onize vested interests. That nothing
but good would accrue from giving the
public increased facilities for investing
their savings is shown by the results
in other countries where the plan has
been in force for some years"
When 70 the inertia Of ofncialdom
there is added apathy on the part Of
the people improvement is impossible
One Of the strongest reasons Why
postal savings banks have not been es-
tablished is that the people have not
made their desire for such q system
manifest. The greatest hope for the
success Of the present agitation for
postal savings banks lies in the fact
that the people are giving expression
to the desire for such repositories.
Labor organizations in great numbers
have passed resolutions asking congress
for postal banks. The farmers con-
gress has taken similar action. No
other proposition before the American
people has been 50 widely and so fsv-
orably commented on within the last
six months by the press Of al parts Of
the United States, and especially by
what is known as the country press.
Voters By thousands have signed Pc
titiOns asking for postal banks. All
this has a meaning, and one that can
not fail Of being understood by those
in power at Washington. When the
people make themselves heard in favor
Of q proposition as they are doing in
this case official inertia must make way
for official acquiescenee with the popu-
lar will That which the people want
from their representatives they can
secure if they viii but make their
wishes known. With a continuation of
expression in favor Of postal
savings banks the establish ment Of the
system at an early date is a certainty.

Irrigation conventions are becoming
frequent in the vest. There cannot be
too many Of them, IL they are properly
maussed- They are educating the peO-
PIE respecting an important subject
a vast area ia the west depends on
Irrigation for its prosperity, and there
are thousands OF opportunities, even Ia
localities with ample rainfall, for farm
srs to make sure Of crops on limited
areas in dry years BY small irrigation
plants. The irrigation movement viii
gain impetus every year for long time
to come, and bitches, before long, viii
De familiar objects TO thousands Of
people who. few years ago, knew
nothing about irrigation except what
they might have vaguely CLEANED from
reading OF il in distant lands, without
any notion that they would themselves
cultivate irrigated farms.
As the state irrigation convention at
lawrence some interesting speeches
and addresses were delivered. The
most instructive to the general reader
was presented by President Diesem on
the subject Of individual irrigation
plants. Mr.. Diesem says there are 200
such plants in Finney county. The de-
scriptions which ne gave Of the results
obtained by the owners Of some Of these
small plants oughtstO be read by every
farmer who sufferers occasionally from
crop failures in dry seasons, and who
is IN position to obtain water to irri-
gate q small section OF his farm. This
applies not only to the farmer in the
arid and semi-arid regions. where crops
are more likely to fail than to yield
hountifully without irrigation, but also
to farmers in the richest agricultural
sections Of the country. Illinois and
Missouri farmers recently have suffer
ed experiences from drought which
have shown them what great advantage
they could have derived from the pos
session Of deep wells and ample reser-
voirs and facilities for pouring water
over a limited area Of fruit and vege-
table ground.
Irrigation on q small scale has been
tried in Illinois with great successor
the gardens Of the insane asylum at
Kankakee, and wherever these small
irrigation plants exist, IN Kansas or
elsewhere, they stand as object lessons
to show what a great protection they
afford 20 the farmer against the COM
plete loss of all his crops from dry
seasons They cost comparatively little,
and they are absolute guarantees to
their possessors Of a good living from
the proceeds of the farm every year,
regardless Of the rainfall. They put
the farmer in position to hold a large
surplus of the staple crops he raises in
good years, aud they equalize the con-
ditiOns Of farming so that he need not
sacrifice big crops at low prices one
year and have nothing to sell in the
years Of higher prices.
There ought to be thousands of small
irrigation plants where there are hund-
reds now, and whatever may be the de-
velopments Of the near future in the
way Of state or corporation projects
for irrigation the enterprising farmer
with windmill or a jumbo pump or
small individual ditch will go on de-
mOnstrating the great value of a small
patch of irrigated ground.-Kansas
