We note that the Illinois Press Associa- ton has taken a strong and decided stand against the onerovs tarif on wood pulp and white paper. and declares that the Paper Trust has robbed consumers of this country of at least five million dol lars per annum. over and above a fair profit on the articles imported. As The Sentinel well says. ''ths newspapers of the country'would indeed be blind to their own interests if they did not unite in protesting against any continuance of this abomination. The National Publish ers' Committee Is actively demanding that wood pulp be put on the free list and that the duty on print paper be reduced. Ev- cry editors association in the country ought to reiterate the demand. and see that it's sentiments are known to our Senators and Representatives in Con- gress." This is a subject which affects readers as well as the publishers through out the country, and We agree with The Sentinel that there Is no reason why this outrageous system of robbery should con- unue. It is Q system by which and un- der which all the people are taxed for the bensft of few. and the press of the country should unite in the demand for the removal of the taritf.

GOING TO RAISE CHICKENS.

Mayor Harrison. of Chicago, wants to get out of politics and begin life anew out in the country on a poultry farm. That would be nice for a weary and disgusted politician. He can lie under the shade of the tomato trees and listen to the hens cackling their lays. or laying their cackles. or whatever they do, while the roosters roost in the martin-gourds. and the little ducks duck themselves in the milk cans. and all will be riotousiy and riproriously joyful. The gentle billy goats will supply him with fresh butter, and the idyilie donkey will droon him to rest, while the gobbler gohbles up the careless straddle-bugs. and the peacock cocks his starboard eye at his hen. who is combing her back hair on,a mulberry vine.
 And think of the pleasure 1t will afford the ex-Mayor to watch the mild-eyed calves climbing the wire fence to find their nursing bottles. while their mothers pick early peas for dinner and fan the microbes from their jackets with their caudaa appendages. while they chew their gum in uninterrupted content. And when the little chickens come out of the in- oubators. it will be an unslloyed pleasure to our ex-Mayor to grabble grubworms for his foster children and give them paregoric and syrup of figs. while the hens get or in a fence corner and rest from their labors. Verify. Mir. Harrison has expressed a sensible desire, and his bucoiio friends ought to send him a sup ply of egg seed and chicken perambu- iaters. 50 that he may be thoroughly pre- pared for his venture into fowlology.

TO RELIEVE THE BRONX.
IT IS PROPOSED TO PURCHASE THE NEW
YORK AND WESTMINSTER
WATERWORKS

Albany March 11-Assemblyman Seymour. of
New-York introduced a bill to-day the recon-
mendaton of Water Commissioner Dougherty. of
New-York which will enable the city to purchase
the plant of the New-York and Westchester Water
Company. Mr.. Dougherty. in a letter TO George L.
Rives the Corporation Counsel of New-York eX-
plains that purpose of the bill is relieve the
need of water of the people of the Twenty-fourth
Ward Of the city of New-York. He said that in
this part of The Bronx the inhabitants pay
ing extravagant water rates. although the service
was sadly inadequate.
The bill is drawn the lines of the act which
enabled the old city of Brooklyn 10 acquire the
plant of the Long Island Water Supply Company.
Mr. Dougherty also recommended the enactment
of a general act which would permit New-York to
acquire other private water supply plants, but
waived this measure for the Seymour bill.
