The Failure of the Tea Tax.
From the New York Post Qnd.).

It Is conceivable that the failure to lay
the proposed tax on tea is connected with
the appearance OF a report from the de-
partment of agriculture concerning the
possibility OF growing the tea-plant In this
country Experiments have been In
progress some time IN South Carolina. bur
the results are not encouraging. The re-
port suggests that as the cost Of picking
a pound OF tea Is eight times as much la
Carolina as IN China, a. does not seem
practicable ito compete with the cheap
oriental labor" OF course "a duty OF 10
cents n pound might not overcome this
dimculty, hut II The duty were increased
60 dollar "a pound tea could no doubt
be- probably raised here. The plant can
be made 60 grow and the only trouble ~
the Industry. which IL undeniably an in
FAINT is TIE lack OF protection. Instead
OF wee - giving up the tea duty, pro-

which goes to show that the famous mil

made the affidavit says that in 1857 while
riding in the caboose of a freight train
She met Gould. They spent the time
roasting chestnuts over the stove, and
az that time she says he told her he was
married and had one child. Owing to her
friendship for Gould growing out Of the

Senator Harris was a thoroughly hon

had a frank honesty Of speech; he was
honest in purpose, and throughout his
long career there is no blot on the non

years service in the Senate he has died
a poor man. His long life and his splen-
did talents were given to the public veal.

by American citizens, in which case
they would not be entitled to damages.
1t also appeared that the vessels had
been greatly overyalued, certainly not
an uncommon thing under such cir
cumstances. Congress did right in re-
fusing to consent to that bargain and
prejudice is seen from the fact that the
agreement was defeated in a Demo-
cratic House by 142 nays to 113 yeas.
The result was that commission was
appointed and is now considering the
question and there is no question but
that its report will be approved and
the award be paid.
Great Britain's diplomats may have
been disappointed in not securing the
lump sum but that afforded no good
ground for England's neglect to patrol
Behring sea as she was bound by the
terms prescribed by the Paris tribunal
to do; nor did it warrant the con-
temptuous Indifference of the English
government to all our overtures for
another conference. Just what bearing

To Save the Seals.

Now that England has receded from
her arrogant attitude respecting the
sealing industry there is a reasonable
hope that new conference may estab-
lish such regulations as shall afford
adequate protection. II is a small part
of the original herd that remains to be
protected, however. and it will be no
easy matter to devise such regulations
as shall secure a long life to this in
dustry, which now amounts to little
owing to the almost complete extinc-
ton Of the animals.
II is estimated that from 1874 to 1895
the animals in the heru on the Pribylov
islands decreased from 100000 to 49,
900 and the number must now be still
less. / is evident that the regulations
prescribed by the Paris tribunal are ut
terly Inadequate. One restriction, that
prohibiting the use of firearms IN
Behring sea, is said by Henry w.
Elliott an expert who has twice taken
a census of the herd for our govern
ment, to have increased rather than di-
unfinished the slaughter The use of fire
arms he contended would have fright
ened the seals away from their feeding
grounds outside the protected zone Of
with the result that they would
| have sought shelter within that zone.
Now the silent spear is used with the
result that the slaughter is greater.
This same authority in a letter 70
Congressman Dingley under date Of
Dec. 10, 1884, concluded with the follow
ing: I'VE have before US just one
thing to do, in so far as this business
is concerned and that is to nrst make
a fair and honest attempt to enlist the
aid of Great Britain in uniting with Us
to save that life 4 the Pribylov islands
from the certain ruin now staring it ir
the face; then if we fail in that, repea
that law of 1S6S-1S10, which prevents
the killing of female seals on land il
Alaska or the waters adjacent thereto
SO that we at least can take what be-
longs to u.s." etc. We have made tn,
attempt to enlist the efforts of England
in the proposed work and if she ha.
really consented il a true spirit o
helpfulness some adequate regulation,

increased immensely. Within two years
of the coming in of the Democratic adj
ministration the bank clearlngs
throughout the country declined at the
rate of fifteen and half billions a
year During the Democratic adminis-
tration of our national affairs for four
years there was a loss to business as
compared to 1892 aggregating forty-two
billions of dollars!
No one can comprehend the magni-
tude of that loss and yet there are
Immediately. These unreasonable NOR
tails would have us understand that the
new tariff. although it is absolutely i'm
possible that it's full effects should be
enjoyed for nearly two years, is value
less unless il instantly restores the con-
ditions of 1892 Those people would ridi-
cule man for planting an apple tree
if he did not succeed in getting a full
harvest from ii the next season.
There is a degree of unreasonableness
in some minds that renders them i'm
pervious to the truth and incapable of
information. Some of these minds are
now engrossed in magnifying every
possible evil, declaring that unless our
new tariff shall effect an instant cure 1T
is vile nostrum. But the great ma
jority has no use for carpers Give il
a chance" is the motto of those who be-
lieve in fair play, and those who do are
at least ninety per cent of all.
