THE NEW TARIFF MEASURE.
The completed tariff bill has been re
ported by the sub committee of the house
to the full waja and manj committee.
An almoRt inconceivable amount of work
baa been performed in the prepiration of
this great measure, which will be of vi
tal intereHt to the farmer as Tell as the
manufacturer.
Tho dutj on wool ia increased slightly,
man ilia, eisul and jute are placed on the
free list as demanded by the farmers, who
wanted cheap twiue. The duty on sugar
has been reduced one-half, with tin wiae
provision added that in case any foreign
country shall place an export duty on
the sugar shipped from that country to
this then tho duty is to be doubled here
tnereby preventing the (Julian sugar
raisers from bein the gainers at our ex
pense as the coffee planters of Br izill were
a few year ago. It was a well known
fact that coffee could not be raised in
Unit.-d States and In order to cheapen it
to the consumer a high tariff that had
had been levied was entirely removed.
but ins tend of chcupenincr, coffee advan
ced on awuutof the export duty which
W-ts levied at once ly tlv countries, who
furnished us with that necesry commo
dity.
The duty on common cotton goods is
reduced on cotton warp nn-1 worsted dreaa
goods iu order to increase manufactures
in thoso lines here which are at present
largely supplied through foreign factories.
A bounty of per pound is given fr
th production of silk cocoons in this
country. Nickel ore is placed on the free
list. Pig iron is unchanged.' Loss ate
placed on the free list while a duty of
fifty cents per thousand ia levied on saw
ed lumber.
The tax on liquors remains unchanged
while the tobacco tax it? reduced one half.
For the especial lienefit of the farmers
ft large increase is made on imported
farm products, partieultily such as come
from Canada to compete with our runn
ers. In this respect the bill is conspic
uously a ftvmer'8 bill. The d uty on eggs
is increased t 5 cnt per dozen; oats 15
cents; buck wheat 1 5 cents; barley 30 cents;
hops 15 cents per pound; hay 4 per ton,
etc.
It ia estimated that the changes in in
ternal taxes will reduce revenue about
$12,000,000: on sugar and molasses about
$28,000,000; on woolen goods on account
of the increase of duties which vail re
duce imports. Sl0.000.00O; on other
changeB in duties $5,000,000. About
t54.000.0C0 in all. The friA lint
J F
agreed upon by republican menu ers. will
not vary materially from that of th
senate bill. While art goes on the free
list, it is strictly limited to paintings,
the hand work of an artist and sculptor.
the handwork of any sculptor. Bronzes
and other 6uch things us require machin
ery in their manufacture are not included
in this clause. One of the things placed
on the free list is books and music for
the blind, printed with raised letters.
This new measure having the solid
l eupport of the republican members of the
ways and means committee will soou be
come the law of the land. The free list
which is a long one will be mentioned
tomorrow.
There are twenty-sven states whose
constitutions forbid the legislature to
license lotteries, leaving fifteen states de
pendent for protection upon the intelli
gence and morality of the people. There
are fortunately but few spots where the
T.ouisina hvdra headed monster stand
much show.

General Clinton B. Fisk believes in
telling tun truth even in a joko. He said
to a Sunday school the other day: "Some
of you boys may le presidents of the
United States jome day, but not if you

Concession and compromise appear to
be the charactietic features of local polit
cal diplomacy.
