county may come into possession of
her just revenue by such benefits al are
here mentioned, viz:
THE increase in license of 80 mer-
chants; the detection of SO merchants
who have not been paying county
license; the detection of 90 others who
have not been paying county license.
IF conditions like these are found

Preparing yiolets for Winter Blooming

From the Ladies' Home Journal.
To grow violets for winter blooming
it is by far best to plant them where
they are to remain. The frames may be
placed about them later. Pick off every
bud that forms, and remove the run
ners. and do not force them by giving
fertilizers. The ground in which they
are planted should be light and mel
low and only ordinarily rich. What is
wanted is sturdy, healthy growth rath-
er than a luxuriant one. Shower th,a
plants frequently to keep down the red
spider, unless they are where 4hey Will
get the benefit of dews and rains. Put
the frames about them in October, but
do not cover the plants until cold
weather comes. At that time it may be
well to fertilize the soil somewhat.
Bank up we'll about the frames. and

The bill making an appropriation
for and directing the warden of The
state pcnitentiary to establish a
twine- making industry and work the
convicts, has passed both houses
and become law. This is doubt
less a good law and will work many
of our convicts on material that
will not come in competition with
free labor in the state. Now we be-
lieve it would be a good plan to pro-
vide for the balance of the convicts
by letting them out to the various
counties of the state and putting
them to work on the public roads.
Experience has demonstrated that
they must have something to do.
In few years the roads of the
state could be greatly improved by
this labor. Who knows, the present
legislature may pass bill of merit
yet before it adjourns.

FRENCH PRESIDENT DEAD.

FRANCOIS FELIX FAURE,
- President of the French Re
L public, died suddenly of apo
plexy Feb 10. NJ. Faure sprang
from the working people of France.
His father was a cabinet maker. He
was an educated and patriotic CHI
zen, and the worry and trials of his
position seemed to wear on him.
President Faure was earnest, zeal
Gus and honest in his discharge of
duties. He was stricken with apo
plexy and lived only a few hours.
He realized that death was rapidly
approaching, and, calling his family
and the attaches of his household
around him, babe them all an afec
tionate farewell, and asked forgive
ness for any hasty words he might
have spoken.

The Supreme Court of Kansas has
upheld the legality of the special
session. The trouble seems to have
been, not that the Governor did not
have the power to call the session,
but with the people of Kansas-that
they should so far forget themselves
as to, in moment of blindness in
4aced by political excitement, elect
a man to the high place of Governor
who was so narrow as to be willing
to prostitute his constitutional rights
for selfish motives and political spoil.

RECEIPTS FROM CUSTOMS.

neSe ISuTeS speak IOI themselves
but we call attention to the fact
that during Garfeld's and Arthur's
administration the Morrill, Tariff was
IN operation when in 1888 a reduct
ion of Tariff of about 20 per cent. was
made, this being in force during
Cleveland's first term. The McKir-
ley bill was in operation in 1890 and
1891, under Harrison. The Wilson
German Tariff was in force in 1894
and 1895 during Cleveland's last
term, and the Dingley Tariff in 1897
and 1898 under Mckinley.
1t will be noticed that the custom
duties fell off 500, 74o, 25S during
the two years of Cleveland's fist
term with the reduced Tariff Of
1883, as compared with those of
Garfield and Arthur They in
creased S74,8I7,S27 under Harrison
and the Mckinley Tariff, as com

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY "a, 1899
QUESTIONS ANSWERED.
Ge ting Rid of Surplus Products
Revenues and Expenditures I'm
der Protection and Free Trade.
From the American Economist.

EDITOR AMERICAN ECONOMIST;
The following pertinent ques-
IL tons, which Minnesota read
err of the Economist asks, we take
pleasure in answering:
QUESTION lis American machinery (farm)
sold cheaper in foreign markets than to Amerl-
can consumersI
ANSWER: Manufacturers in all
countries frequently sent their sur
plus products to foreign markets
and sell them at less prices than the
same products are or could be prof
itably sold at home, and even some
times at less than the cost of prod
uction. This is done both in coun-
tries where there is high Tariff,
and also where there is low Tariff
or Freetrade. Sometimes this is
done for the purpose of destroying
competition IN the foreign markets.
In countries where wages are low
and products are cheaply made, the
producers, by sending their surplus
to other countries and selling them
temporarily at a loss, soon drive
foreign producers out of the busin-
ess, and when they thus get control
of the foreign market they put the
prices up so as to secure a good
profit. English manufacturers fire.
quenuly do this when we have low
Tariff and thus ruin industries in
this country. Producers sometimes
export their surplus products with
out profit rather than close their
factories and discharge their hands,
as they might be compelled to do if
there was no foreign market. The
manufacturers Of farm machinery
may do this in some instances, al
though that is not the rule, as they
generally export their goods with
the purpose Of building up profit
able foreign trade.
QUESTION 2.-How does the monthly revenue
produced by the Dingley bill compare with that
of the Wison-Gorman bill, and what would be
the probable effects under normal conditlonsT
ANSWER: A few facts will answer
this question. Previous to 1883 we
had the Morrill, Tariff, fully Protect
i've. In 1883 the Tariff was re-
duced and we had lower duties un-
til the Mckinley bill became a law
in 1890, The Wilson-Gorman bill
came into force February I, 1894
and the Dinsley bill July "a, 1897.
As matter of business policy when
new party is coming into power,
if it fayors a high Tariff, the i'm
ports will greatly increase before
the new Tariff goes into operation.
On the other hand if a party that
favors a low Tariff is successful, the
imports will be held back, SO as to
come in under the lower duties;
hence the first and last years of an
administration of either party do
not indicate so truly the workings
of the Tariff as do the two interme-
diate years. The following table
gives the receipts from customeS for
the central years of each of the last
five administrations except the
present, which would make a better
showing if we could have 1899 in
place of 1897;
