Why Increase the Coal Duty?

Under the existing tariff bituminous
coal pays 40 cents ton. The Dingley
bill proposes to make this IS cents. In
1856 the imports of bituminous coal
into the United States were 1,24S, 835
tons. The exports were 2,246,284. The
figures for Canada were: Imported from
Nova Scotia. New Brunswick, etc.,
1873. 404 tons; from Quebec, Ontario,
ETC., 1887; from British Columbia,
6a7, 257; exports to these three divisions
respectively, Alb tons, 1871. 1909 and
1904. Canada now proposes in case the
Dingley rate is imposed to retaliate by
q high duty on our coal. which will
certainly not stimulate exports Here
is an export business worth twice as
much as the corresponding import bust
ness. and it is proposed to run the risk

Germany Not Friendly.

German hostility to this country
has gone so far that the Prussian Fed
Grafton of Manufacturers has made a
sharp protest against sending German
exhibits to the Philadelphia CONNER
cial museums. Attention is also called
to the fact that Germany exacts tariff
dues on supplies forwarded to our con-
sular agents in that country, although
such articles are admitted into the
United States free of duty. These are
minor matters and scarcely worth so
much as formal protest, but they in
dictate bad feeling, and do not promote
international comfy. It is not too
much to say that Germany is the least
friendly nation, if not positively the
most unfriendly, toward this country
now in existence. That fact does not
mean war by any means, but it does
mean that we must watch her care
fully and be always prepared to take
care of ourselves in commercial way,
if not in a belligerent one.

THAT ENDLESS PIN QUESTION.

VIII" has not heard the question:
"What becomes al pins" Millions
oi them are made in Il year: millions
arr sold, and yrt the supply no more
than Keeps rar" with the demand,
which ~ccin- CROWN" .norrmnrl~lv all
the time. Ey Il computation made in
London, ten Years ago, il wa> shown
that at that TIM tllr weekly produc-
ti"n 81 pins i'll Great Britain was $50,
o10.0OO, OF which l00.o0O,0O0 or con
>idcrably more than half, we've made
in Birmingham. Then 120,000,000
We're made in France, and 120,000,O00
in Germany, Holland and Belgium
Since that time the production OF pins
has increased largely. The biggest
pin manufacturing city in the world
Is Birmingham, where 81 10000 pins.
on the average, are manufactured
every working day. The other pin
factories in England together, turn out
about l9O00,0O0 pins daily. The
daily output OF pins in France exceed
20,O0o,UO, and Germany and other
countries in Europe manufacture
about 100000 more daily, the total
production of pins being e6,000,000
every day, or Coz, OO0,OOO week, in
Europe. This is, of course, exclusive
OF the pin factories in the United
States, which number forty-fivc, hav-
ing capital of 100000 giving en-
ployment to 1000 person, and turning
out in year pins to the value of ST.
100000. 1t is calculated that only
per cent. of the pins manufactured are
worn out or broken. The other 80
per cent. are lost, but what becomes of
them, where they go, and who get
them, or why some of them are not
afterwards discovered and again put
to use, are mysteries. At the rate at
which pins are manufactured and the
rate at which they are lost every third
person in Europe and North America
must lost pin day, and it is to be
inferred, through the statisticians take
no account of this, but there is some
pin-losing going on, too, in South
America, Asia, and Africa, though
tourists in the dark continent aver
that the garniture there is such that
the use of pins is indispensable.
Pins are made of copper and zinc
wire. The metal is cast into ingots,
which are rolled into sheets after hav-
ing been annealed several times.
Afterward the sheets are cut into
strips so fine as to resemble wire and
then by machinery the wires are cut
and afterward the pins are pointed
and headed. After the completion of
this process the impurities are worn
off in arevolving iron barrel filled with
sawdust and then the pins are put in
a preparation of tin and are polished
by the friction of sawdust to the point
of resemblance to the pins of COM
merce. The process is by no means
complicated, but much ingenuity is
required, for the competition in pin
making is considerable and the
margin of profit from pin manu-
facture is therefore not so large as to
permit the successful operation of any
factory not utilizing the most recent
improvements.

In the Thurston county Superior
Court last week, q Judgment was
rendered by Judge Aver in behalf of
Douglas Young, the Seattle account
ant, by which that worthy is awarded
from the State the full amount OF
$500 claimed for exporting books a
couple of years ago. The legislature
at the session of 1895 passed an ap-
preparation bill allowing Mr.. Young
$40 day for his services to the State
in that engagement, but this sum was
not satisfactory to the claimant. He
subsequently brought suit against the
State for $40 per day, with the result
herein recorded.

ALL things crumble in the lapse of
time - even the firm foundation of
Populistic reform. In January the
great exponent of Populism in Wash
ington refuses to ride to the capitol
building with the outgoing Governor
to attend his own inaugural, because
forsooth he must demonstrate to the
plain common people that he is one
of them-they cannot ride, neither
will he. And the p. C. p. cry with one
voice, "Lo! he is one of us, Great is
Reform!" Four moons have waxed
and waned, and this reformer takes a
junketing trip in special car, "to
which no objection is made if a man
keeps his head" is the only whisper
that rises from the Populistic ranks

fail to see that, even assuming that
imports do not fall off, it is hardly
worth while for the sake Of paltry
