RECIPROCITY QUESTION IN ENGLAND. PispatcheH from Kiitfland indicate-that the iSrili.-h overiuncnt is somewhat disturbed, in regard to the reciprocity policy whieh the United States has inaugurated The fact that the commercial treaty between the United States and Bra zil will admit cotton manufactures from this country into Brazil, at rates of duty 25 per cent less than thoj?e imposed upon similar joods Merit from Great Britain, seems to .have Htirred Lancashire profoundly British dispatches state that Kntf land sends every ywir to Brazil about 31,2.7),(K) worth, and that more than $12,."(),XX) worth of this ajjfjreate represents the value of cotton tfoods alone. Urgent eltorts are beimr made, according to re cent dispatches, t induce the British Ministry to take some steps for the protection of the trade of that country with Brazil, particu larly in the" matter of cotton 4xis. The diftic.tiltv is to see what lie.s within the power of the British Government to do. Its policy al ready admits free of duty a lare Bilill C 1)1 Life t A JUI UlUlt ,ivjui.v-io Brazil, and the necessities of the f revenue affect in a peculiar decree the possibilities of modifi'm- the present system, even if it could be done with advantage as respects any important Brazilian product But Brazil has scarcely any impor tant product to sell upon which the British irovernmeiit now im poses any duty whatever. Coffee and cocoa are the only dutiable products imported from Brazil by Great Britain to any extent, and of these British supplies are mainly from other countries. Xor is it practicable for Great Britain, in harmony with its long established commercial policy, to threaten the imposition of any duties upon pro ducts from Brazil alone, while simi lar products from other countries are admitted free of duty. New York Daily Commercial Bulletin. UNDERGROUND TRAVEL BY THE GREA1HEAD SYSTEM. The cars are supplied with longi tudinal seats, lit by electricty, and luxuriously cushioned, the pas sengers facing each other. The lo comotive is an electric motor, pick ing up its electricity from a central rail through which the electric cur rent is conducted by a copper wire; and inasmuch as, for each track, there is a separate tunnel only a trifle larger than the train (which fills almost the whole of the annual space, only at stations) each train acts as a piston, driving out, from station to station, the air through which the preceding train passed. The stations are connected with the open air and are not more than three-quarters of a mile apart; any foul air which gathers in the tunnel is thus expelled by each passing train. Indeed, the air in the tunnel is of a more equable temperature, and is kept more constantly moved and freshened, than the air on the surface; and frequently on dark and murky days it has been noticed that air and atmosphere, strange as it ma3- appear, are far more pleasant in the tunnel than on the street surface. Simon Sterene in the August Forum. The July report of the statistician or U. S. department of agriculture, devoted to areas and conditions of growing crops, places the United States acreage of corn, compared with (100) last year, at 108.3, potatoes 102.3, tobacco 102.6, As to condition July 1, compwred with the average crop for ten years. past, corn is esti mated at 92.8 per cent; wheat 94.1 rye 93.9; oats 87.0; barley 90.9; potatoes- 95.3; tobacco 91.1; clover 89.3; timothy 87.4; and pasture 92.3. The average weight of fleece from this year's wool clip is 4.9 pounds. Gen eral improvement is reported in the crop conditions of all Europe coun tries except Russia. In India both the area and the yield are slightly less than was expected two months Senator Peffek should take a day off and correct the statistics that he uses in his calamity peeches. There are not .),000,(XX) mortgaged homes in the United State", as he asserts. The total number, according tothe census rc turns. is o.ily 2.2T)O.O00. or less than one-third of his estimate, and it is absurd for him to go on inaKing such a misrepresentation.

On Friday the Temescal tin mines shipped to the American Tin Plate Company of St. Uoiiis .JS.OOO pounds of pig tin produced, smelted ami refined at Temescal. That company now has orders on hand from newly formed tin plate companies in the United States for over tfJOO.OOU worth of block tin, and is running d.iy and night with three shifts of men to meet the demand. What will our democratic a muirwumo friends say to th id Will they still insist that we cannot and will not make tin plate 1.1 U United States, and that we ought continue, as heretofore, tilling tl Welshmen's pockets at prices whit they name'r Will they claim now that the I-leKinley bill is a mei empty form of words, or that it wi not foster and encourag at leai one domestic industry? It must I borne in mind that nineteen tons ( block tin mean at least tons tin plate, the tin being only about per cent of the so called tin plat Six hundred tons of tiu plate is m t very much, but it will be enough to disprove the free trade assertion that tin plate in marketable quanti ties is not made in the United States. This shipment, too, is only a single one, and will be followed by others just as fast as the ore can be mined and milled. The Temes cal company expects within sixty davs to be smelting from four to six tons of block tin per day, and to increase the output far beyond tliat within a short time. We are going through just the same experience with tin as we had with steel rails, with wire nails, with cotton fabrics, and with every kind of manufacture that a protec tive tariff has encouraged. We were met with the same derision, the same slanders and falsehoods and the same predictions of failure, but all these industries have suc ceeded, and tin plate making will do the same. San Francisco Chronicle. IX "The Boston Transcript" some one tells what the present leading authors of the country were doing in lSoo. Mr. Howells was setting type in his father's printing office, and he has never been ashamed of it, either; it is twenty to one that he was an excellent compositor. Charles F:gbert Craddock roamed, a little child, upon the Tennessee mountains.. and Celia Thaxter gathered pimpernels upon the wind-swept Isles of Shoals. All these young people then and a little later, must have found very little inspiration for their baby geniuses in the current literature of that da', as this contributor gives an account of it; the idols of people were Fanny Fern and Fitz Greene Halleck and Timothy Tit- comb. Sentimental maidens pored over "Bittersweets" and "Godey's Lady's Book," and the general literary tone was decidedly weak. vast deal that was good had al ready appeared in I8.10, but the peo ple hardly knew it. As to the only great piece of fiction of the period, Uncle Tom's Cabin," people were divided between declaring that it was rubbish and asserting that it was the work of Henry Ward Beecher and not Mrs. St owe, because no woman could have had brains enough to write it! REFUTING A STANDARD DEMO CRATIC LIE. The Fifty-first Congress did not ppropriate "over a billion of dol lar." but iust exactly $988,410,129, or $170,446,209 more than the Fiftieth Congress. Of this excess $2.,321,- 907;was . for a pension dehciency which the Democrats of that lon trress dishonestly left unpaid; $23,- 007,343.58 was for postoftice bills, three-fourth of which will be re turned to the Treasury: $i,.J0i, 140 70;for the purhase of Indian lands that will sell for three times their cost; $14,042,344.00 was to meet con tracts for naval vessels heretofore authorized, and $72,088,330.99 to pay new pension under the new act authorized by the people in 1888. The balance went in census ex penses.harbor defenses and improve ments. and World's Fair appropri ations. As to tlie revenues. me were reduced, and unjust taxation was not continued. As we have al ready demonstrated in these columns, the people are enjoying under the McKinley bill a greater volume of trade than ever before, while they are paying less taxes. Inter Ocean. THE owners of Kentucky whisky owe Uncle Sam in round numbers $18,000,000 for taxes on whisky, which they will have to pay soon . . ., i r.: 1 1. ( ; in . if navment is i'X- i 1 1 i v ' - - . . . - . i tended. As Democrats have con tended that the Treasury was "hard up" they might be taken at their own word, and be asked to pay promptly. There is no reason why the payment of the tax should b Tncle Sam hsrve the benefit of the money and the Democratic party the benefit of the whisky. Inter Ocean. Sick or well, Bright' s discose or no disease, candidate or no candi date , Secretary or citizen, James G Blaine holds a bigger place in the popular heart of this country to day than any other living man. Globe Democrat. A K'EPI CTIOX of $1,500,000 in the public debt during July is all that can reasonably be asked, ami a great deal more than the democrats care to see. Ik Uncle Sam were to get into any trouble an army could be organized inj ten days from the ranks of the G. A. R. which, without a drill, could lick an- arni3' organ ized 011 this green earth. They art old and gra3'-headed, but they would be there all the same. Inter Ocean. KASTEWX democratic organs can continue to sneer about "the mort gaged west." "the corn burners." "grasshopper eaten," "cyclone swept," and all that, but don't for get to send along the thousand dollar bills to pay for the crops, and plenty of them. The grasshopper terms this year are C. O. D. F. O. B Til!-; appearance of Senator Boyn ter in Lincoln yesterday caused the World-Herald and a few others to thinks he was going to seize the governors chair and call a special session of the legislature, as Gov ernor Thayer was out of the state; but all of their scare and hurrah is blown to the wind as Lieutenant GovernorjTom Majors is at his home near Peru attending to his own business and as long as lie is in the state I'oynter or no one else can step over him ami call a special se. siou while the governor is Jaway from the state. Tom Majors is ex pected to be in Lincoln tomorrow to attend to some matters from the state and Senator Uoynter's guber national aspration will end. , WHV HE'S A PROTECTIONIST. Fix-Congress Perkins, of Kansas, states these clear and forcible rea sons for the faith that is in him: "I am a protectionist because I am an American. We should have free trade among ourselves because we honor one Hag and we are citi zens of a coinmon country. But the man who builds no houses here, who pavs no taxes here, who em ploys no laborers here, who does nothing to contribute' to our growth and to prosperity, who lives abroad bevond the the oceans, whence he desires to bring his products, either farm or manufactured, into this reat American market in competi tion with ours, he should pay for the privilege; and when he has paid for the privilege we will cover the money into the treasury of the United States, and with it we will cancel our obligations and carry on the concerns of government. And I would do this in the name of patriotism and my country because I believe it right." THERE is a parrot in St. Louis which exclaims, whenever a man enters the room: "You're drunk, sir, and had better go away. I don't want to see you till you're over it." People wonder how the bird catches on, but the explanation is simple: it doesn't know how to av anything else, and of course in making the remark to every man it frequently gets near home. One gentleman who. called thought it was the lady of the house speaking. uid rushed out of the parlor. She sat down to write a note of explana tion to him. when to her amazement servant brought her a note from the gentleman she was writing to, in which he stated that he acknowledged with humility that he had perhaps taken too much . . . . , 1 ... 1 1, ,1 wine witn ins uinner. om hoped on calling on her that she would not have detected it. As she had done so. however, he offered his most abject apologies and a prayer for forgiveness.
