SUPERIOR TOOLS.


The superiority of American manu-
| featured tools, fittings and implements
is evidenced by the great demand for
them abroad.
We are prone to talk about the dura-
bility and other good qualities of the
foreign-made machinery, tools and
other manufactured articles and to
compare them with our home made
articles. Frequently the foreign made
article is given the preference in the
comparison, but in practical use the
! homemade article will nearly always
be found to lead.
The style and finish of the manu-
! featured product of this country is
| far in advance of that of any other
country in the world, and in the mat
ter of quality, prices compared, we will
be found producing the very best.
Europeans are not generally accus-
toned to that high degree of finish,
that extra polish, that Americans re-
quire to be given to the manufactured
product. They are content with the
rougher article, demanding only dura-
| Dtllly' anu pllGIl bhO IOuS H.
unfinised appearance for quality.
Commenting on the opportunities for
American make of tools and imple-
ments in foreign countries, Special
Agent to the Province of Burma brings
out in a practical manner the superior
quality and finish of our wares:
There is a good market for small
tools, axes, wrenches, augurs, chisels,
stock and dies, pipe cutters, etc. Amer
lean tools are we'll liked, and in some
lines are much preferred to the Eng
fish. The total import Of tools in
creased from $22,557 in 1912 to $40
463 in 1866, and the proportion from
America increased from 1868 to $6,157
The complaint about American tools
is that the cost is needlesssly raised
by unnecessary finish. For instance
merchant showed me two sets OF
stock and dies for threading small
bolts, one English and one American
The case containing the English sci
was of smooth plank, implanted. AS
such cases lie around in machine
shops and get oil, filings, ETC., on them
this was sufficient for the purpose
The American case was of sand-pa-
pered wood with two coats of varnish
streaked in imitation of the natura
grain and with printed trademark
neatly painted on the lid. The master
mechanic of a well-kept orderly Amer
lean machine shop would buy the fine
finished case and pay the extra price
without question. Here, however, i
the quality of the tools themselves arr
the same, the buyer prefers to keel
three rupees in his pocket rather thar
pay them out for varnfsh and gilt.
AK handles are another instance o.
this. The English ak handles are i'm
ported just as they come from the
lathe, while the American are carefully
sandpapered and oiled.
Electors, check valves, pipe fittings
especially brass fittings, were another
item that was called to my attention
The English check valves were as cast
7 with no machine work whatever excep

that absolutely necessary for the seat
ing threading. and shaping for the
wrench Some Of the American were
carefully finished and of course cost
more. These fittings are used in large
quantities around the oil works. and as
piping and fittings are always a large
item the managers, il they get good
valves, are not particular as to the fin
ish, and so buy the cheaper English
valves.
Quality and Finish Required.
Usually in catering to foreign
market, finish is very important, but
on such unitarian articles as those
mentioned for cheap country like
Burmah all unnecessary finish, which
Increases the selling price, actually re
tards the sale. Take a wood chisel, for
instance. the steel must be good and
the edge bright and sharp; but fur
nshed with a plain turned handle, if
thereby the cost is cents cheaper will
make much more salable chiscl than
one with a finely sandpapered, var
nshed handle that increases the cost
by cents.
/ 1t is a point worth noticing on this
market that as rule good steel is re-
| quired in tools, but any unnecessary
finish is drawback. In some in
stances a cheap article IS required
without regard to the quality. There
/ is insufficiency of labor in Burmah, and
every year 10000 natives of Madras
and other places come over and help
harvest the rice crop and then go back.
! The rice is cut by hand, with small
sickles. These the native buys at about
annas or IL cents apiece. They are
! of very cheap manufacture and dull
easily. A firm imported d few Ameri-
can made sickles as an experiment.
| These were of first class steel and
would last several seasons while cheap
sickles would hardly last to finish one
crop. The American make cost, how
ever, l rupee, or 32.4 cents, and was
unstable, as the native prefers to pay
II cents each year and then throw the
sickle away on leaving rather than pay
32.4 cents and have to carry it around
with him. Then the price, to him, is
excessive for as IL cents is nearly a
days wages, the difference between
II and 32.4 cents seems as large as the
difference between 81 and would to
an American laborer.

A Vicious System

Last Septembe Der the Treasury Depart
ment went to the relief of the money
market" by depositing SIG, 100000 of
the surplus in the Treasury in the
bank, aud since then $4,000 900 addi-
tional has been deposited. We do not
believe that the American people have
ever seriously reflected ON such sys-
tenn of finance as that. Suppose we
mad an incapable or a corrupt Secre-
tary OF the Treasury. He would be
powerful for graft. He could fix the
prices OF securities dealt in Wall street
and If he did not make billions it
would be because he ould be satisfied
with millions. We do not believe we
have ever had such Secretary of the
Treasury, and we hope no such man
will ever reach that position.
But the whole system is rotten. A
government is a robber to the amount
OF its surplus" though Gen. Fred
Grant very sagely opined that a sur
plus is much more agreeable thing
to have around the house than a de
ficit. The government is beggar and
mendlcant. 1t can have only what
It's citizens or its subjects bestow on it
IL is autocratic in that, by unjust sys-
TENS OF taxation lit makes A axpayt r
and b taXeater That is the bane OF
government-privilege, that lets I
ride in chaises and makes A walk.
A surplus is dishonest, immoral, il
legal, 1t leads to corruption and to
prodigality.
We know it is old fashioned and out
OF fashion to talk this sort of stuff, but
truth was ever old fashioned, and as a
general thing a most boorish and disa-
greeabIe guest. And yet it will be re-
called that Abraham had three guests
and Lot but two--a pronounced
triumph for truth. Lot was a tax
eater in Sodom Abraham was tax
payer in Canaan.
Perhaps it is natural for a Republi-
can Congress to stand pat on the tariff
but it is known of all men that the cur
rency needsa half sole and deal of
discretion taken from the Secretary of
the Treasury Washington Post.

Tue TAX missioner has busted
himself with the matter OF sheriff.
commissions and filed his petition in
the kanawha county circuit court. The
object OF the suit, says the Wheeling
Register, is to settle three disputed
points in the construction of certain
acts OF 1904 and 1905, all having bear
ing on sheriff7s fees. The contested
points are:
One. Who is entitled to the discoui t
paid during the discount period OF
October and November, the sheriff or
the taxpayer.
Two.Wh hat commission is the sheriff
eutitled to on taxes collected during
the discount months, % or 5 per cent.
Third. W no is entitled to the interest
on taASs collected after January /, the
sheriff Oh tAe fund for which the taxes
are levied.
AS the matter now stands, the sher-
IFS have the better of the argument,
settlements allowing them straight
commissions of per cent. Attorney
General Clark W.May gave an opinion
in which he held that the sheriffs were
entitled to per cent on all taxes col
lected but the two other points in dis
pute have never been passed upon.
The suit is Of interest to every tax
payer in the state. If the contention
of the commissioner is sustained, the
emoluments Of the sherihs will be ma
terially reduced and the taxpayers will
benefit thereby.
This will prove test case as neither
S de Will rest with decision from an
intermediate court. No doubt all the
yearly settlements between county
courts and sheriffs have been made but
If the tax commissioners side is sus.
tanned new sett lements may be dc
manded or adjustment can be made al
the next settlement.
