One reason why Kansas City cannot
convict a train robber is that it is the
home Of the Kansas City Star and

morals Of the community to such an
extent that great rascals become
heroes. These papers had better keep
their rascals at home, or the pen will
get them.

How to Breed Deficits

A deficit threatens the British gov
eminent, and it is proposed to impose
an import tax on sugar, grain, -four and
meal. This illustrates the difference
between free-trade theory and practice,
and also the difference between the
protection principle and the tariff.fo
revenue-only idea. Under the Dingley
law duties are imposed mainly on ar
ticles of foreign manufacture that come
into competition with the products of
our own labor. Under the English sys-
tenn duties are imposed mainly on ar
ticles not produced In England, but
which every Englishman must have.
In England everybody knows "who
pays the tax."-Chicago Inter Ocean.

Less than sixty days remain Of the
current fiscal year of the Government
business Of the United States. From the
evidences at hand 1t IL plain that this
fiscal year will be one of the most i'm
portant In the history Of the Govern
ment, Notwithstanding the fact that a
portion Of the time was covered by con-
ditions of war existing between our
country and Spain. 1t Is a marvellous
testimonial to the powers Of the Ameri-
can people In their trade and Industrial
pursuits that they have been able to
carry on a war with foreign foe, pay
all the expenses incident to that war.
and not only maintain treasury over
flowing with gold, but at the same time
afford conditions In our domestic rela-
tons under which there has been a
marvellous increase at home and in
foreign trade. Evidence Is being pro-
duced by the daily reports Of the news
papers and the commercial agencies
going to show how handsomely indus
trial conditions are improving, wages
advancing and trade and commerce
among our own people returning to the
high standard which was set under the
Mckinley protective tariff law of 1890.
Unless all signs fail, the trade and
business results Of the current year
will far surpass those Of the banner
year 1892, and this result in the face of
conditions of war.

One of the most interesting docu-

years rs the report Of the review of the
worlds commerce for 1893, as prepared
by the Bureau of Foreign Commerce
of the State Department. In his letter
transmitting this publication Secretary

This is the prosperity that was prom
Used. These are the better times to
which the policy Of the Republican
party was dedicated in 1896. But they
have by no means reached their maxi
mum, as capital is all the time going
into new enterprises and employing
more hands; the area of productive in
dustry is increasing; the markets for
American wares are growing more nu-
merous and varied. We ought to grow
richer and buster for years to come,
and will undoubtedly do so If the peo-
pie in their wisdom are content to sus-
tain the policies at Washington out of
which this prosperity has streamed,
and to frown down all rash economic
experiments. however alluring they
may be, which are proposed to make a
good thing better. = San Francisco
