The American Hog Again.

Nt the demand Of the farming inter-
rsts of France the French chamber of
deputies has passed a bin largely in
creasing the duties on hog products
importcd into France from the United
states. To get full-grown live Ameri-
con hog into France (of the quad
rupcdal Variety under the new bill a
duty Of $40 will have to be paid here
AFTER. Sucking pigs can he admitted
on payment of 90 cents apiece and the
duties on pork meats and lard will be
in proportion. In explaining the pro-
visions of the bill Premier Meline
frankly informed the deputies that 1t
was a measure prompted solely by the
necessities of French agriculture, which,
I'm tho matter of pork products, could
not withstand the present competition.
What steps the government at Wash
inGton will take in the matter are not
known. but it obviously is not in "A
position to take exception to France s
action. With the French people as with
our own the tariff question is simply
matter of bookkeeping. on one side
of every rate of tariff duty are certain
debts. while on the other are certain
credits. The permanence of the rate
depends upon the accuracy With which
the account is kept and also upon the
nature of the balance. France has
elected in this new bill to subordinate
the interests of the large body of con-
sumers TO those of the small body of
agriculturists engaged in the raising
of pork The decision may be wise Oh
1t may not. Time will tell, and in the
meanwhile what we lose i'm France
must be made up elsewhere, as it can
be by shreWd neeotiation
