QUESTION FOR cUMMINs.

said that the railroads should pay their
share of the taxes. Governor Shaw
and Judge Hubbard and other railroad
attorneys say the same thing. Cover
nor Shaw goes step further and says
the railroads now pay p,ore than their
share. What the people would like to
know is this: Does A. b. Cummins
think the railroads pay their share of
thee taxes?" MIR. Cummins does not
dare to answer this question. If he
says yes, the farmers will not vote for
him, if he says no, tie railroads will
work against him. So he thinks he can
fool the people by saying: The rail
roads should ray their share of the
taxes and if you think l have sense
enough, courage enough, ETC., why vote
for me, and if not, why vote against
me-" Now, it is not question of sense
or courage. There are other men that
have an much sense or courage as he
has, and yet cater to the railroads. If
A. b. Cummins will write letter
answering the question and say which
side Of the fence he is on the News will

The bureau of statistics has recently
published some figures showing the
manner and extent to which our reci-
procity treaties have affected trade in
the past. From 1866 to 1865 we had
reciprocity with Canada, and the result
was that between 1852 and 1856 our ex-
ports to Canada increased from $40, $780,.
900 to $29 ,025, 900 and our imports from
SIS, 469, 1000 to $2l ,277 900. In 1867, after
the termination of the treaty, the ex-
ports fell to $2l ,O20 900, and the imports,
which had reached $3.50, 1854 900 in 1865,
fell to $25, 044, 900. The results of the
treaty with Hawaii, WHICH endured from
1876 to 1898, were very similar. In
1874, before the treaty went into opera.
ton, our exports to Hawaii were valued
at $6l4, 1928, our imports from these
islands at 81 ,Ol7: 900. But in 1877 our
exports increased to ST. ,273, 1000 and our
imports to So, 100000. From September,
1891, to September, 1894, we also had
reciprocity with Porto Rico and Cuba.
In 1889 our exports to those islands
amounted to$l3,9 l6, 900 and our imports
to $50 ,s3S, 1000. In the first year of the
treaty imports increased to $sl, $4,000,
and exports to 500, $780, 900. On the ter
mlnation of the treaty both exports and
imports fell within year to the level
of the years prior to the treaty.

The supreme court has ruled that
police officers, constables and detectives
cannot receive witness fees in addition
to their salaries for testifying before
grand juries, district court, or even IN
justice court, unless the court so orders.
This will no doubt remedy an existing
evil in some localities, but in others it
will not only work wrong to peace
officers who get little enough pay for
their disagreeable duties, but will no
doubt cause them to relax to some de-
gree their vigilance in capturing crlmi-
nails, since they will receive no more if
they capture them than If they do not.
The question has two sides to it, and
the provision "unless the court so
orders" should be carefully and wisely
used wherever and whenever it will pro-
mote peace and justice.
