Ye correspondent has always be lieved in foreign missionary work. But now , something else comes up. When people become so wrapped up in other amusements that they have no respect for the dead and when people have no respect for the dead they have no respect for the living then there is no self respect for themselves. It seems that there is ignorance abroad .some where. This was proven Saturday afternoon when the little child of Harvey Newland's was laid to rest in Sparks cemetery ( after a short illness ) , and a bill game started and continued throughout i H evening.

A. MELTEXDORFF , by : iated April 4 , iPor. 13 i Americans to Pay the Tariff Tas For Foreigners. A STRANGE PROPOSITION , Imports of Raw Materials to Be Free , So the Trusts Can Sell Cheaper Abroad Than Hero Protectionists Evidently at Their Wits' End id i Foreign Markets. * * The strange economic theories of Sec retary Shaw will soon not be of much consequence , for after ilarch 4 lie will sink into political desuetude. But as showing1 the perplexed condition of the stand pat mind in seeking to escape 8t the inevitable tariff reform his proposition ' osition to create three free trade zones , i two of which are to be located on the ' , ' Atlantic .coast and one on the gulf coast , 'where manufactories may be es tablished and allowed touse free raw material for products to be sold abroad , is remarkable. These free trade zonea would be for -the advantage of for eigners , so that American products could be sold to them cheaper than to our own people , for the full tariff rates are to be paid by the American consumer whether manufactured in the zones or elsewhere. As the tariff on actual imports aver ages over GO per cent and on some articles is over 100 per .cent and this high protection to the trusts and com bines has had considerable to do with trust high prices and the greatly in creased cost of living , very naturally It costs much more to manufacture here : than In such low tariff countries as England and Belgium and else where , where the cost of living is much cheaper. The absurdity of the Shaw plan is evident from the fact that the wages paid to labor In the free trade zones must be just as high as are paid to those working in the tariff territory of the balance of the United States. for it would cost the workmen there as much as elsewhere. Everj'thing used ; or consumed in the zones by the workers there would pay the present high rates of duty , and only the raw materials _ imported for manufacturing would be free. The important fact that this Shaw plan brings out is that the protection- Ii ists acknowledge that the present high tariff is too great a burden for our manufacturers of products for export to bear and that as the retaliative tar iffs of other countries become opera tive against our exports it must end in so decreasing their volume as to 1A virtually be destructive of our foreign trade in manufactured articles. The trust barons , who are now so highly protected , may obtain still high er rates under the proposed maximum and minimum tariff , which would give them a further mouopolj- the home market and would surely result In still higher prices for manufactured prod ucts , because even the little competi tion from abroad which we now en joy would be effectually cut off. That would increase the cost of living still more and make it more difficult to compete in foreign countries with our products , and apparently the plan is to overcome the partial annihilation of our foreign trade that the prohibitive tariff of other countries is likely to cause. As Secretary Shaw is high in the councils of the stand patters , his new plan is perhaps a scheme of the protectionists xto add to the tariff taxes * the American people now pay by creating free zones for the benefit of the trusts aud tlis foreigner and maximum rates for. us. It b r--so ' evi dent that under the Shaw plan , instead of the foreigner paying the taxasthe protectionists have tried to make us believe he does , the American people not only pay the tariff tax , but the ex pense of keeping up the fi'ee zones and the increased profits on trust products which the tariff protects them In charging in the home market. Does not all thfs indicate that the protec tive system is breaking down of its own weight and that its votaries are at their wits' end to continue plans to keep their hold on foreign markets , which they find slipping away from them through the retaliation of other countries against our high tariff ? How long will the people continue to submit to this trust and corporation plunder ing under foe guise of law ? FOB SAL.E' . Fruit and shade trees of all kinds , and small fruit , shrubs and flowers.
