Hioh Pressure Gas.

In many European cities extensive
use Is being made Of high-pressure gas
lamDs for street lighting, and to some
extent the lamps are displacing cleo
tri ity. They are furnished with IN
verted mantle burners, and in Berlin
the gas is supplied through Name
shcim steel pipe. In some of the sys-
TENS the air is compressed. and In one
case pure oxygen is supplied to the
consumers. In London type of lamp
called self intensifying" is employed
the air being compressed by utilizing
the heat of the products of combustion
to operate neat engine. In Vienna
arc lights are used to illuminate a
park above the trees and gas lamps
are employed below. In connection
with these lamps various automatic
lighting and extinguishing devices are
In use. and much taste is displayed In
the forms and arrangement of their
supports.

The republican notional platform

"In all tariff legislation, the true

tanned by the imposition of such
duties as will equal the difference be-
tween the cost of production at home
and abroad, together with reason
able profit to American industries" {
As pointed out by Senator Craw-
ford, the testimony before the ways
and means committee of the house
showed concusively that the average
wages paid in the lumber industry in
Canada are not only lower, but actu-
ally higher, than those paid in the
Uuittd States. Since the cost of pro.
duction of lumber consists almost
entirely of wages, this means that the
cost of production of lumber is less in
the United States than Canada, and
enough less TO assure the American
manufacturer a reasonable profit
According to the rule laid down by
republican platform, lumber should
be on the free list

CONGRESS proposes to place tariff
of 10 cents a pound on tea When il
is remembered that the annual con
sumption of tea in this country is
placed at l0),00O000 it will be seen
that the article would prove quite a
revenue producer. But it is tax
that all would be called upon to pay
alike, the rich and the poor, and the
25 cent tea of the poor man would
pay as much tax as the 81 90 tea OF
the near rich, or the $500 tea of those
who claim to have been created from
superior quality of dirt. 1t would
be method of raising tax to sup
port the government without compel
ing the heavy property interests to
bear their just proportion, which
seems to be the desire of congress, as
we'll as to allow some interests to levy
tribute upon the people.

In the last ten years the bank de-
posits in this state have increased
from S7,OO0OO0 to S70,0O0,000 And
the best part of it is that this great
increase is distributed among the
people. In manufacturing and
wholesaling districts an increase in
bank deposits does not mean much
to the masses, but here in South Da.
kota it means that the producing
classes have enjoyed prosperity.

THE senate finance committee, in

farmer knows that rye is important
just think what would have happen

had been left out of the schedule
