two burning issues, the fires uf which
hare by no means been quenched by
the agreement of 1893. A glance at the
Monthly journal. issued by the society,
serves only TO show that the engineers
arc still opposed 10 the introduction OF
the piece work system, and that they
are constantly setting themselves
against the custom, which is evidently
growing. of putting haudy-men" to
watch automatic machinery. In q series
OF articles recently published In the
Manchester Evening News lJanuary
10th, Goth, Feb. I'd. 9th, 16thl, have
given reason to believe that In taking
this course they are on lines which
must inevitably land them In further
disaster. At the rick OF appearing to
he unduly assertive, venture to quote
one or two sentences from those articles.
They are as follows: at is useless for
us to blind ourselves to the fact that
between the engineers and their em-
ployers another test either OF strength
or diplomacy is inevitatle.
What are the engineers going to fight
about? For the right To handle i'm
proved machinery? They have already
lost this battle, and il they should
ever be 80 ill-advised rs TO enter upon
an Jther conflict Tor the purpose Of re-
versing the verdict of 1898. venture to
prophesy that they will be worse beaten
than they were then. Time and science
are against them. The only issue upon
which they can win is the one of wages.

the imposition OF any duty under
section 5 of the Dingley act is slap
in the face OF the country for which 1t
is intended. The effect OF Secretary
Cages order was taken by Russia TO
mean that; and, as diplomatic as Ian.
guage may be, hostility has been aroused
from which we may severely suffer.
The Republican party is caught in Its
own trap. No nation in Europe is
better able, or has the same incentive
on account OF its Infant industries, "
to engage in tariff war than Russia.
Vague mutterings are already heard
from ether nations. Austria, Germany,
and Holland may retaliate. Russia has
set the example; jealous nations will
profit it they can.
Tho injustice OF tho fifth section lies
in denying us benefits freely offered.
The proteotionist deploies the natural
advantages of soil and climate or the
skill of honest labor which Providence
has created outside of tina limits OF the
Constitution (which may or may not
be In the PhilippinesI, and sets up
barrier to prevent their enjoyment. If
O nation has not those advantages, but
taxes itself to offer its neighbors some
thing cheaper than they can make
it themselves, Immediately the pro-
tectionist - who believes that the
foreigner pays the tax-taxes his own
country SO much more, to prevent the
gift. From the earliest times tribute
from foreign nation was supposed to
be advantageous. 1t remains for the
latter-duy protectionist to show US,
under section 5 OF the Dingley act,
that 1t is an. injury and ruin.
In former days, political power and
marriage relations were the basis OF in
ternational alliance. Now trade and
commerce form the foundation of almost
all of our treaties and conventions.
This strife of arms once occupied Kings
and rulers. Now the keen rivalry Of
trade stimulates the people of all
nations. A retaiatury tariff is de-
claration of industrial war, wherein by
manning ourselves we seek to injure
others; and victory brings Us neither
profit nor glory.

such ezportation, which enables A 10
sell in the homo mail et at q tax of
LIS an equivalent portion of the sugar
produced by him "a In excess Of his
quota.
80. The maximum prices fixed by
the Minister OF Finance are always
practically reached by the trade, and
are such as to give very large profit
to the producer, particularly in those
provinces where. owing TO better
economic condition of the population,
the demand for sugar exceeds the local
supply from the stock entitled to with
drawal for consumption at a single tax.
The ability OF the producers OF sugar
in certain regions to obtain higher
prices than those obtained in other
regions gives rise to the arrangement
mentioned in paragraph 4.
sc. While it could not be, directly
inferred from the wording of the statute
itself chat the government, in arranging
its system of sugar taxation, contem-
plated an encouragement to export, this
object is clearly expressed in the in
struotions issued in pursuance of the
statute By the minister of finance,
wherein this arrangement is expressly
declared to be maze in order to facili-
tate the expectation of the surpluses to
foreign countries. tFitle D, Art. H.,

bonus from some source to those who
export sugar, there can be no doubt. :"

the prices of domestic sugar are uni
versally higher than the prices of re.
ported sugar.

The work of compiling the figures re-
turned to the State Census bureau by
the enumerators from the various
counties OF the State is gong ahead as
rapidly as possible, and it is expected
that the complete returns will be given

the officials engaged in this work are
reticent about the result it has been
ascertained, however. that, in addition
to Washington, Prince Georges and
Montgomery counties, Dorchester will
gain an additional member of the
House of Delegates. Washington, Mont.
gouiery and Prince Georges counties
were accredited with the additional
gain by the Federal census, while Dor
chester county did not show the re-
quired number OF inhabitants to secure
additional representation. Under the
Federal census Kent county showed an
increase in population. but under the
State cersuss it is said that this in
crease has not been discovered st.
Mays, Charles, Kent and Anne Arun
del counties, which under the Federal
census would he accredited increased
representation, will not be given this
increase under the State enum ration.
