creased charges are not TO be applied
to silk fabrics. wheat, -four. tea, an
thracite coal and certain other articles
but the free list of imports is vir-
tually wiped out
It is to be expected naturally. that
the increased duties imposed on i'm
ports by Canada will bear heavily
upon the United States The rejection
of the Canadian reciprocity agree
ment by the voters of the Dominion
was equivalent to the serving of no.
tice that even reciprocal form Of
free trade was not approved there.
Nevertheless. the United States
went ahead>and gave TO Canada. with
out asking any concessions, everything
the Dominion would have received
from this country under the reciprocal
agreement. The reduction of the
tariff opened the markets of the United
States TO Canadian farmers and manu-
facturers. without opening Canadian
markets to Americans.
Now Canada raises the bars still
higher i'm a businosslike effort TO re-
coup lost revenues. The method that
is being pursued there would have
been the logical course for the United
States TO pursue. In fact. tariff in
crease would have been more logical
here than there.

Canada Increases Tariff
From the washington Pos)

If any further proof had been need
cd as TO the mistake made by the
United States government in relying
upon the income and war taxes to
make up the treasury deficit, Il is now
furnished by the Canadian govern
ment's action in prOclaiming a z 1-2
per cent increase to its general and
intermediate tariff rates.
Even the free trade influence Of
Great Britain has not been strong
enough TO blind Canada to the reve-
producing virtues of the tariff
With the mother country at war, Can
ada only now comes to the point Of
levying heavy war taxes, the major
portion of which fall upon imports.
A snarp contrast is furnished to the
action of the United States, which,
although at peace. levied war taxes
months ago to make up the deficit
from the tariff revenues.
Strangely enough. the direct taxes
levied in Canada arc quite similar TO
those levied in the United States. A
stamp tax is applied to business and
banking transactions, to railway and
steamship tickets. telegraph and cable
messages. and patent medicines.
The customs tariff increase. applied
Immediately, includes not merely the
Z IL per cent. increase on general i'm

districts. or the consolidation of dis
tricts. eXpedient, the Board shall sub
NIT the project to a meeting of resi-
dents of the districts affected and
then can submit the question of con
solidation or alteration to a special
election, at which every property tax
able. male or female, shall be privil-
eyed to vote. II a majority vote
against it, consolidation shall fail. In
event of districts voting for consolida-
tion, they can receive from the State
one-hfth of the cost of the new build
ing, providing. however. that no dis
trict shall receive more than $4,000
toward the cost of erecting new
school house The State appropria-
ton to assist i'm building new schools
in consolidated districts shall not ex-
ceed $4,000 in any one year. In event
of any consolidated district erecting
graded school it shall receive $1,000
from the State to assist in defraying
the cost. but the State is limited to
paying out more than $4,000 in any
year for this purpose.
An important feature OF the Dill IS
that empowering the local Board of
Education of any consolidated school
district TO arrange for the transporta-
tion of children to and from school,
free of cost to the pupils or their par
ents. This is designed 10 enable the
children to traverse without inconven-
ience the increased distances TO and
from school in case of a new school
house being erected in the center Of a
consolidated district.

Puzzled Democrats
From the Washington Evening Starr

No more entertaining story circu-
lated in the political world in the
autumn of 1855 than that relating to
famous editor and one of his fam
Gus contributors about an article
which had been requested and prom
ised, but had been delayed. The title
of this article was to be. "Why Am
a Democrat" II had been bespoken for
the spring of that year. The carly
autumn found the editor still without
the article. He wired complaining
of the delay, and speeding up his con-
tributor. and got this reply: little
now out-of-date. and impossible TO
me. Should be glad to send you some
thing under the title. Why Am |
Democrat? and would do so for moth
ing
Wonder was then active in the
minds of many old-fashioned Demo-
Gratis. They had worked hard to bring
Mr.. Cleveland into office. All had had
visions Of practical reward for their
labors. Many had been silver men
for years. nourishing distrust of Wall
Street And yet here was their man

ly. the question presented Itself:
"Why am / a Democrat"
There are men today calling them
selves Democrats quite as much puz-
zled. They worked hard to bring Mr..
Wilson into office on a platform
which where it has not been repudi-
ated has broken down. They declared
that protection produced the high cost
of living. and have found they were
deceived They declared the Republi-
cans had been wasting three hundred
millions year in appropriations. and
have found, to put II mildly, they were
mistaken. They proclaimed the JEFF
fersonian doctrine that the best gov
ernment governs least. They find
some of their leaders leading today
in the direction Of State socialism. and
centralized government far beyond
the aims or dreams of Alexander Ham
ilton.
The state of mind of these men Is
precisely that of the puzzled writer
of thirty years ago. If they are still
Democrats they want to know why
Old beliefs have been knocked into

A TINIE NOR PRECAUTION.

From the Milford Chronicle.
The local boards of health in Della
ware cannot be too careful at the pres
cnt time in watching for contagious
diseases. In several parts of the East
ern Shore of Maryland reports of
smallpox have been current. and II is
among the transitory class of the peo-
pie that the cases are reported as hav-
ing their origin. The negro travellers
are one source for the scattering of
the disease, and all physicians prac-
ticing their profession should be care
full TO report and have any suspicious
cases closely scrutinized. An epidemic
of smallpox will ruin the business OF

sity for being careful to keep the dis
ease from getting a foothold in Della

SYSTEM SHOULD BE ABOLISHED.

From the Georgetown Democrat.
One of the most important measures
for enactment into law now before
the Legislature and ono in which every
resident in this county is deeply in
terosted is the bill for the abolition Of
the tax collectors and the creation Of
the office of county receiver of taxes.
The records in the office of the clerk
of the peace prove conclusively that
the present method OF collecting taxes
should be abolished. for under the
present system II requires an eXpendi-
ture of about $4,000 to collect $780,
GOO. The lax methods employed by
the collectors result in the loss of
several thousands of dollars each year
because of their failure to make col
lections promptly.
