nuch that is entitled to credit. Nebras
lea nver had a more faithful or energetic

JScial life Mr. Lieese has made many warm
friends, and necessarily many enemies

nearly a year and is now too low to make

INDIAN DEPREDATION CLAIMS.
li a ia ee.
A goo. I many people on the Nebraska
and Dakota f. ontiers are sending to
eViishingtou tin ir claims against the
government for losses incurred as a re
su t ol the Imli i: outbreak. They are
calling f r immediate action upon them,
which is not possible until congress shall
make provision for their payment.
Tlie general government is undoubted
ly liable lor every dollar of loss that can
be traced to the ac ion of the Iudians.
Tiiis statement applies not only to
I roperty s'olen snd destroyed by the
ruls'-dns, but also to stock that may
have been lost as a result of tie
panic caused by tlie uprising. The gov
eminent must also return to the state
money xpended by them in defending
their citizens.
While this question of liability is
clear, the method of enforcing prompt
payment is not. Previous claims have
Iain in the interior department for years
before adjustment. Senator Paddock is
endeavoring to secure legislation to pro
vide ' for the prompt consideration of
such matters. If he succeeds in dt i-cso
f before congress adjourns it will be pos
sible for nil persons having just claims
against the government to get their dues
within a short time.
In the meantime they can only file
their claims and cultivate the virtue c.f
patience.
A PRACTICAL LESSON ON "WHO
PAYS THE TARIFF"
Mr. Jerry Heagerty arrived home from
C in ad a today " where be bought 1,000
bushels of potatoes for the Oswego
market. The average price paid was 40
cents a bushel. The duty upon the po
tatoes is 25 cents a bushel snd the freight
15 cents a bushel. The potatoes will re
tail for about 85 cents a bushel. Who
pays tne duty, tax and freight! The
Canadian farmer, Mr. Heagerty, er the
consumer? Oswego Palladium.
This is indeed a "practical less
and no republican can ask for a better
one. Potatoes are worth 80 cents or
more in Oswego. This is the market
place. If the price was any less in Os
wego Mr. Heagerty would not be fool
enough to go to Canada to buy, but
would buy at home. The Canadian
must sell to Mr. Heagerty for so low a
ptic: that including the duty of 25 cents
and the freight of 15 cents, they will
cost Mr. Heagerty in Osweeo no more
than he can buy for at home. So the
Canadian deducts the duty, 25 cents and
the freight. 15 cents and sell for the
balance of what is left of the price of a
bushel of potatoes in Oswego. 13 it not
clear that the Canada farmer pays the
duty? And if there was no duty the
Canada farmer would ship his potatoes
to Oswego aud get the full market price
in Oswego, less the freight, 15 cents, or
70 cents per bushel, in which case he
would save the 25 cents duty for himself,
wouldn't hef U there .nybody no dull
hec.tn tee that neit'ier the customer
nor Mr. Ileagerty wou!d get them iinj
cheapcr if there vra no duty, but that
the (;n nil in farmer w ould nave the duty
an I get ju-it 2-" rent- per bushel more it, cau not hut comprehend One demo

Onk of the results of the hdz.ard-iikc

governors, in NthrHska three. The leg
isiatures of .Mon'ana and Colorado are
each engaged l an intense struggle to
ascertain "who is who and wliHt is

The moral is plain, agriculture and

decreased since we withdrew protection

An exchakce has this to sav of I rIv
and th 1 pw tariff law-
The absurdity of the reports indnstri-
ously circulated through BritUh channels
in rega-d to the attitude of the govern-
ments of Europe toward our newtariff
law has been haunilv illustrated bv the
la.test advices from Italy, which stands
forth in the importance of its trade with
the United States of all the nations of
Europe. Recently we were gravely in
formed that the Italian government was
so disph ased with the new law that they
would decline to send any exhibits to
the Columbian Fair in 1893, and w uld
adopt other equally terrible acts of re
prisal.
It turns out, however, that the gov-
ernment Commissions appointed to in I
yeetigate and report on the probable ef- I
fects of the bill has but recently com-
pb ted its task, aud the report shows that I
under the new tariff about forty eight I
percent of the Italian exports to the
Lnited States are admitted free of duty j
thirty-six per cent at a reduced duty, I
twelve per cent at the old rate, while the
duty is increaied on less than tour per I

ating the protective principle
The policy of reciprocity under certain
favorable conditions of rau'nal exchaasre
without competition is the logical out-
g owth of this broad application of the
protective idea and in perfect harmony
with its central purpose. The American
people are willing that it be judged by
its fruits.
