Dix Discusses Tariff.

Troy, n. Y, November 4.-John A.
Dix, addressing the Democratic mass
meeting In st. Joseph's Hall tonight.
appealed to the people to help to put
an end to the infamous system Of over
taxation which has become burden
through the exactions of the Payne
Aldrich bill and to the extravaganza
of the national and State govern
Inents."
Mr. Dix devoted the greater part Of
his speech to discussion Of the tariff.
and in conclusion pledged himself and
his associates to do their utmost to
give the people OF the state a, an ,o eco
"Under the lead of taxation imposed
uponus by the recently revised tariff.
said Mr.. Dix, we have reached
point where our opponents realize that
conditions must be changed. They now
suggest that there should be a re-
vision, thereby admitting the failure
OF the one SO recently made by them,
and they ask that the opportunity OF
revising the tariff should be again
entrusted to them.
Il would remind you that in the last
national campaign they were entrusted
with power only because of their eX-
pressed and explicit promise to give
tariff, and they have absolutely failed
to make such revision.
They have squarely broken the

Is revision which is satisfactory only
to the special Interests OF the coun-
country is the only party which can
be entrusted to make an honest and
downward revision OF the tariff
Our opponents have had their OPP
portunity and have missed It. They
have been weighed in the balance and
found wanting"

be toward Rostand: whether the
young man would spout passages

FIRST TRANSATLANTIC STEAMER
New York World.


When Senator Hughes OF Colorado
repeated the familiar story that the
first steamship 10 cross the Atlantic
brought to thiSucountry a book proving
the impossibility Of vessel driven by
steam power crossing the sea he start
ed discussion that is likely TO be con-
tinued for a long time outside the Sem
ate chamber. Local pride prompted
Senator Bacon Of Georgia to sta te that
the first vessel 10 cross the Atlantic
under steam sailed from the United
states to Europe, not the other way,
and that II started from Savannah. No
doubt he had In mind the Savannah. q
ship OF $50 tons. with length of 100
feet, which I'm 1919 crossed from Savan-
nah to Liverpool in twenty-five days,
partly under sail power and partly I'M
der steam power She was a saii-ship,
equipped with small engines, but when
the wind was fair or the seas too rough
the paddle-wheels we're removed and
slowed on deck. Therefore II was in.
correct to say that the Savannah pro-
ceeded under steam from the United
states to Europe. Senator Money I'm
turn corrected Senator Bacon by stat
ing that the first steam vessel 10 cross
the Atlantic was the Great Western,
which sailed from Charleston to Bristol.
IL would be interesting to know where
he got his information. The first trans
atlantic record for a steamship Is
usually assigned to the Sirius which
started from England April 4. 1893. and
arrived i'm New York I'm the evening Of
April %. The Great Western which
started a few days after the Sirius. was
only seventeen hours behind IL in reach
ing New York. Both carried sails and
used them, but they Travelled under
steam all the way. After all, Senator
Hughes was probably right. although
the legend about the book disproving
the value OF steam power on the ocean
needs To he verified Just the same.
IL Is a good story.

THE DRINK BILL.

There has been considerable discus
sion as to whether the agitation for
temperance in this country has, or has
not resulted In a decrease In the cbn-
sumption Of intoxicants, The year 1907
showed that there was, up till then.
no falling off In the Nations drink bill,
but the following two years have
shown marked decrease. In two
years the population increased, the
New York World says. by 2.14s,s6e,
but the money spent upon alcoholic
drinks fell off sil0,1s5,eOO. That this
was not an economic after effect OF the
panic may be taken for granted since
tea. coffee and cocoa established In
1909 a record.
The figures, as given by the National
Grocer, are as follows;
The per-capita use OF spirits In
1909 was the smallest since 1900 OF
beer since 1905. OF both there was
