Burdens of the Tariff.

In the making of the tariff law,
one would naturally suppose that
those least able to bear the burdens
of taxation would not be discrimi-
mated against in favor of those best
able to pay the tax involved in any
tariff levy. But what are the
factse" asks a writer in the COM
noner.
The man who imports $1,000
worth of diamonds pays tax of but
5000 per cent. If he imported
thousand shirts worth dollar each
he would have to leave at the Gus
toms house and tack onto his SELL
ing prices $601.60-60.16 per cent
If he decided that he would bring
In $1,000 worth of champagne, one
Of the items upon which there is a
large increase, the tax levied by the
tariff Is $500. If he brought in
$1,000 worth of blankets he would
pey q tariff tax of S1,645.42.
If he brought in $1,000 worth OF
paintings and statuary, all be would
have to pay as customs duties would
be 5000, but if it were sugar he
would pay s7SS.7o tax on $1,000
worth.
If he brought in $1,000 worth OF
iewelry he would have to pay S6u9
tariff tax, but if he brought in ST.
900 worth of wool dress goods ne
would pay s1.O50.92 tariff.
If he imported a $4,000 auto
mobile the tariff takers would re-
,iere him of s2,250. If it were s5,-
900 worth Of yarns the tariff tax
would be $500.
If the importation were S5,OO0
worth of furs the tariff tax would
be $3.50 but if it were s6,O0O'worth
of clothing that tax would be S4'-
$50.
If some New York Millionaire
brinss in a 100000 ocean-going
yacht the tariff woulI be $4,000,
but If the importation were stock
ings the tariff collected would be
ss7,s5O.

Country vs.. City Life.

Country life has its drawbacks, but
it has its great advantages which
overcome them. True, those who
live in tie country are "Rubes and
Farmers" and "hayseeis" to the
cigarette smokers in town, but the
boast of the business men in the
world today is that they were born
in q farm. Take away the surround
ing evils that beset the young men or
women on the threshold of lite,s
Journey in the city, and substitute
the helpful influence of nature, and
you fortify them for the sterner
walks in life. The few things when
they do not know about table etl-
uuette and when it is proper to leave
two visiting cards and when but one
they will catch onto much quicker
than city boys and girls will learn
to property stroke the furance or
make good bread. No hoy or girl
need be ashamed of living on the
farm, for if they have taken adVah'
tage of what it has offered they are
we'll fortified for after life.

Pcary seems to have thought great
deal of him and was unstinted in
his praise of his successful rival.

most complimentary terms. He said:

Slick Tariff Trick.

The Commoner says the casual
Investigator of the new tariff law
will find apparent reason for con-
graduation when he inspects the
lumber schedule thereof. Apparent
ly there is total reduction Of IA
per cent on the entire schedule, but,
if he probes deeper he will find the
fraud. When railroads desire to
raise rates that Will certai'.y be
followed BY a protest they do it in
directly, by changing the classifi-
cation. The tariff makers follow
the same process. Timbers of vary
ing sizes make up the building we
erect. Under the Dingley law these
bore a duty Of cent cubic foot
on timber. hewn, sided or squar-
ed" The new law apparently re-
duces this rate SO per cent by max
ing the duty a half cent, but
and here's the joker; the new par
agraph reads: Timber, hewn, sid
ed or squared otherwise than by
saving" the last four words being
new matter. AS cold matter OF
fact these timbers are not heWn
sided or squared in any other way
than by saving. Hewing is a back
number method in numbering. BY
the Interpolation of the four words,
OTHERWISE than by saving" squar-
ed timber Is put in the boards
classification, where the rate is an
equivalent of so per cent raise over
the old rate.
