The United States is now the
worlds greatest producer and ex.
porter of meats, which form one ol
the most important features OF our
export trade. In 1887 the total ex.
portation Of provisions and live ami.
mails was $102,774,91O, and in 1899
their total was $2O7, los, ,637, having
thus doubled meantime, and forming
in 1899 17.2 per cent OF the total ex-
ports OF that year. And all this un-
der a protective tariff.

The Pioneer Press says the com
plaint of Capt. Crenshaw, who died
in Atlanta a few days ago, that he
had received but little treatment at
the general hospital in San Francisco
while suffering from a serious gun
shot wound, proves to have been un-
warranted. 1t develops that Cren-
shaw was addicted to the use of NOR
phine, and because the drug was de-
MED him he doubles imagined that
he was not being we'll treated, not
withstanding the fact that two
nurses we're in constant attendance.
And bang goes another campaign

In two years of the Cleveland Ad-
ministration, 1894-95, we exported
$151, ,199,O92 more gold than we i'm
ported. In two years OF the McKin-
Icy Administration we imported
$141, ,7O3, ,3O9 more gold than we ex-
ported. The difference to the coun.
try, in the two periods, was $292,-
902, ,401 in favor of Mckinley. This
doesn't include his billion-dollar

The Ship Subsidy Grab.

In Mondays issue Of the New York
Evening Post appears the results of an
exhaustive inquiry made by that paper
into the origin, scope and Objects of the
Ship Subsidy bill now pending in the
United States Senate. The result is
that economists, merchants, lawyers,
editors, irrespective Of party, unite in
condemning the Ship Subsidy bill as a
job rs dangerous as it is useless.
In the heading of the article, the
subsidy grab is aptly described as "A
Trust, of Trusts. by Trusts, for
Trusts" And it is shown up as an
attempt to take hundreds OF millions
from the taxpayers, chiefly for the
benefit OF few rich corporations. 80
far as the bill itself goes" says tho
Evening Post editorially. land not
withstanding the specious amendments
proposed, we believe that every un-
biased reader, after reviewing the facts
and figures given, will agree with US
in condemning II wholly on many
grounds. 1t will neither help Ameri-
can export trade, nor give US the mer-
chant marine we ought to lave; 1t will
neither raise for US race Of American
sailors, nor provide warships in time
of need. Upon the other. hand, 1t will
turn over to number of already
wealthy corDorations many millions of
dollars yearly for generation to come,
thus creating a fund from which may
be expected to spring fine crop Of
corruption and scandal. The Pacific
Mail subsidy lesson ought not to be so
soon forgotten. The honest sentiment
Of the country.a as reaected in the many
interviews we print with thinking men,
shows clearly that the measure is
deemed not only useless, but q real
danger to the public welfafe.''
1t would be we'll II the Post article
could be printed in pamphlet form for
general distribution. 1t Is too long for
any except the large newspapers to
print in full, and it is SO complete
that it is not capable OF condensation
without the danger Of impairment. 1t
is the most effective arrangement OF
the offensive subsidy grab ever pre-.
scented.

Attention is called to q pertinent
subject, and one that demands atten.
ton in Delaware and elsewhere, by the
Springfield, Mass, Republican, 10 an
editorial on the continued unabatement
of the deforestation of our county
hillsides.
The trail Of the portable saw mill is
over the land, says the Republican,
gaunt, lean, stump marked acres in
place Of graceful, wooded slopes. And
it is not always full .grown timber that
is sacrificed. Word comes from Wen
dell in Franklin county that the pretty
tract OF young timber at the baptist
Four Corners is being slaughter
There is SO little timber on the ten
acres that it will not pay to employ a
portable mill, but the logs will be
hauled to the mill on the farm lately
sold by John Wilson Walker Of this
city. This is the last bit of anything
fit to cut on the old Worcester. Troy
State road between New Salem and
Greenfield, indeed probably on the
whole length, with few exceptions. The
same is true of the road from Wendell
Athol. These two roads run alo ng
the height of land dividing the Millers
River and the Swift River water sheds.
There are now but nine houses occu-
pied between Millers Falls and the New
Salem line, outside of Wendell village,
distance of twelve miles, Only two
places are worked as farms to any es.
tent. This was formerly, before this
complete deforestation, the wealthy
part Of the town. This vitality concerns
those who live in the valleys of these
streams, as the denuded sources OF the
streams soUu and rapidly diminish the
water supply along the whole course.
Indeed, the same thing is being done
over the whole State. 1t would seem a
wise provision for the next Legislature
to set some limit to the size Of the trees
which may be out, as our neighbor
States have found necessary to do Id
self-defence from the greed of lumber.

Good Advice From Mr.. Cleveland.


The Atlanta, Ga, journal, owned by
former Secretary of the Interior HIoke
Smith, in its issue OF Monday last
printed the following interview by one
OF its correspondents with ex.Presidont
Grover Cleveland, at Princeton, N. j..
''In my opinion the great need Of tho
Democratic party Is return TO first
principles. The Democratic rarty has
not been fatally disorganized, but it
sadly needs rehabilitation on purely
Democratic lines.

wandered off after strange gods. A
large mass Of Democratic voters saw
this before the last election. Thoy

came to vote they said This Ia not

las see II, it Is the duty Of Demo-
Gratis everywhere to aid in the re-
Mobilization OF the party. There are

necessity Of a return TO Democratic
doctrines In the South, but they are
not so general as would like to see. :"

ship and with Populist as its caudi-
date for President. In 1892, the Demo-
cratic party, in campaign conducted
along the lines defined by Mr.. Cleve-
land in the interview above quoted,
carried the country against both the
Republicans and the Populists.
In view Of these facts and conditions,
therefore, We feel absolutely sure in
making the assertion that no Democrat
in all the country will dissent from
the sound Democratic views expressed
by Mr.. Cleveland in the Atlanta Jour-
nal interview.
An Associated Press dispatch from
Princeton, N. j., last night stated that
Mr.. Cleveland had expressed his hearty
Endorsement of the views Of former
President Harrison upon expansion, as
outlined in speech by the latter in
Ann Aroor, Mich.

speech ins some Of the papers," said
Mr.. Cleveland, land regard it as the
best deliverence yet made on the sub

that those who deIire to acquaint
themselves with the precise question

The total vote Of the State of New

as officially declared, was as follows:
Mckinley, Republican, 1921, g92: BRYAN.
Democrat, SIS, 1856 :Woolley, Pl ohibition,

Malloney, Socialist Labor, IL. 622; Nc.

plurality In 1896, 29s, 400; McKInley's
majority in 1896, 2l5,S00.
These figures show the decline Of
Mckinley, in public estimation, from
1886 to 1900. And they go to prove
that had the Democratic party sense
enough to repudiate Organism and
Populism it would have carried the
country at the last election, beyond

The suggestion advanced In the
Senate to amend the Hay. Paunoefote
Treaty by abrogating the provisions Of
the Clsyton-Bulwer Treaty recalls an
interesting political episode in this
State. John M. Clayton, after his re-
tirement from the cabinet upop the
death of President Taylor, was living
quietly at his Delaware home, when
the treaty was rudely assailed in the
Senate. he resolved to return to that
body and defend II, and made his
campaign in 1862. At that time the
Presidential election was held on the
fret Tuesday in November and the
State election Gu the next. But while
the Democrats carried the State for
Pierce and King, Clayton carried the
Legislature one week later, through the
effect of his wonderful personality, and
was sent back to the Senate, where he
successfully defended the treaty. He
died in 1856. Whether there will be
enough OF his friends in the Senate to
protect the Clayton Bulwer treaty re.
mains to be ssen.
