pie? Certainly not. Just give him
80 per cent.
OF couure having gone thus far, the.
wire man should not be neglected.
He should have at least 60 per cent
The figures are Hypothetical. of
course, but that is the manner in
which the benefits of protection are
handed out. They begin with 10 per
cent to cover the difference in the
cost of labor between this and for
eign countries, and end with 60 per
cent by the time the manufactured
article reaches the stage where the
people purchase it. A1ji in many,
cases the amount is much higher. s
But we are not done with the iron
question. After the wire man, we
come to the nail man. Having gone
so far in distributing benefits he must
not be left to the tender mercies of
the cheap labor of Europe. He is a
pun chaser Of wire and must pay the
60 per cent. Can they, in common
justice, give him less than 70 per
cent?
But we come now to another man
who has not been so we'll treated.
Theoretically he is beneficiary of
the protective tariff, but actually he
is it's victim.
We refer to the man who. drives
tine nails.
He must buy the nails and pay the
20 per cent but he gets no protection
whatever. The nail drivers of Europe
yes, and of Asia, too-may flock here
in hordes to compete with him, and
that paternal government which has
looked SO carefully after the interests
of the others, gives him nothing to
either reimburse or protect him. II
the nail driver of Europe-or Asia
has ew dollars in his pocket-even
of borrowed money-he is permitted
to land, and then to compete with the
nail driver at home. And If the nail
driver. at home complains. he is told
he is not only unpatriotic but wrong.
for this system of taxation is Great
ing wonderful prosperity, In WHICH
he is considerably allowed to share
and he must not lay too much stress
upon the fact that there are one mil
lion. men ont OF work in the United
States today, for that is only due tc
temporary lull in our prosperity,
which lull was caused by the panic,
and which panic was caused by too
much prosperity.
The thousands of articles of iron
and steel which are produced from
iron ore are affected in the same
way. In each step taken in their
manufacture something is added to
the tax the people pay. hTe actual
beneficiaries, formerly somewhat
numerous, are now, in this trust rid
den country, but handful of men
And the tax reaches everywhere, like
the overflowing river which pene'
trates to every nook and Granny OF
an inundated country. Every article
used for convenience, decoration OF
utility, is taxed. 1t adds to the cost
of the home, the business building
and their furnishings, of railroads ant
bridges, of the farmers tools, i'm
plements and fences. For the en-
richment of select and privileged
few every article of commerce is tax
ed, from the pins in an infants
swadling clothes to the nails in a
coffin.

grees to cut and feed corn and did
not let his cows lessen their milk pro-
duction. In fact, they increased from
fiyesto six cans. A near neighbor, on
the contrary, who was without soiling
crops, dropped to only one can per
day, forty quarts. making it unpro-
fitable for him to spend time to go
with it to the railroad, some seven
miles distant, and thus his income
from the dairy was cut off. 1t is not
surprising that he felt very poor the
rest of the season and doubted wheth-
ier farming paid. With the present
prices for almost all products, there
isgno reason why farming should not
pay. if the farmer raises largely what
he feeds. Farm Journal.

STRANGE YARNS

yacht come away with praise FOR he-
designer and builders. There has
never been yacht seen in this city
that could compare with the new ves-
seq either In lines OF strength and
beauty OF construction.
A story published yesterday after
noon by one OF the local papers has
caused a good deal OF laughter among
the yachtsmen OF the city. In this
yarn. which must have been written
by some one who never saw afkhir
or yacht except from shore. Il is-stat-
ed that the new vessel viii be MUNICH

Then the writer goes on TO say that
II viii be very dangerous TO launch
her in this manner. rs she may cap
size.
The idea OF the masts. which weigh
nothing as compared with the big cast
iron keel. causing such a vessel TO
capsize, is what strikes the funny
bone.
In relation TO the date OF launching,
the new yacht should be in the water
before April l. The race for the
Transpaeific trophy will start from
San Pedro on June II and Il win take
fully a month to get the little vessel

for the contest.
II has been decided, as the result OF
letters which have been received from
the designer OF the YES

low wooden masts and spars. These
will be ordered today by cable from

There have been gifts made OF koa
for the rail. the skyIights. the stem
and the cOmpanionway Of the new
yacht but no provision for the use
of this wood in the cabin has been
made. 1t would seem a shame. n.
when there is so much OF this wood
here that would improve the looks OF
the vessel immensely, the use OF Il

last little set-to over A. NJ. Brown.
AS matters stand now Olson is still

to decide whether the head OF a de-

whom he pleases and fire whom he
will.
This was the one matter of moment
at last nights meeting. the other be-
ing an intimation on the part of Chair
man Hustace that there was some
thing going on in connection with the
road work in Eva that would stand
investigation. During the meeting
Hustace entered into no particulars OF
what the monkey business he referred
to might be and he declined TO be more
specific after the adjournment.

Both lawyers then told how very
hard they were working for their
salaries. while Cathcart repeated that
he wanted a deputy who would BE- IN

entitled to it. He limited az a court

Hustace thought that as Cathcart

from the Attorney General there was
no good reason FOR upsettinx the
plans Of the Board. "As a matter o.
fact we have great confidence in Mr.

communication from the County
Attorney was read, notifying the
Board that he had appointed Fred w.
Milverton as his deputy.
Lest there be any misunderstand-
ing I wish 10 inform the Board that
since the first day of January 1 have
refused to recognize Mr.. Olson as my
deputy" said Cathcart, after once
stating that he did not wish to say
anything.
Well. Mr.. Cathcart, the Board has
already taken up this matter and re-
fuses to recognize your dismissal Of
Mr.. Olson. he is still the deputy"
said Hustace.
Il only wanted to say that I do not
recognize Mr.. Olson. that is all. Your
opinion Of law and mine 1 know are
different. 1 don't want TO have any
argument about it." Cathcart thought
this would settle the matter and it
did for a few minutes until Harvey
brought the matted up again. Harvey
read the Law ON the subject and want
ed TO know what the Board was going
TO do about It.
Hustace explained that the matter
was settled by Mr.. Olson's retention in
Office This Board has refused TO
recognize the new deputy, therefore
Mr. Milverton does not exist"
Cathcart objected TO any reference
to Olson's dismissal" stating that IL
was a regular resignation. He review
