AWAY WITH THEM. * J>vy No More Indirect Texet—Necessities Not Luxuries. Queer reports have gone out from ■Washington lately. Democrats sent there to lift the heavy tax burden off the shoulders of the masses are said to be seriously considering the placing of hew duties that will rest almost entirely upon the shoulders of farmers, laborers and mechanics. It is estimated that a tax of 10 cents per pack on playing cards will yield a revenue of $1,600,000; that a tax of one cent on each package of proprietary medicine will produce $4,500,000; tfeat an increase of the tax on cigarettes from 50 cents to $1 per 1,000 will add 81.500,000. Estimates have also been made of the rev-" enue that would come from increasing the tax on whisky and from placing a tax upon leaf tobacco. .Nine-tenths of all such taxes are pfid by people who work for a living ajsd whose incomes are less than $4 a day. It is not to the point to say that

these articles are luxuries or are even unnecessary and harmful. The fact is that the workingman now •’Uses them / and would continue to use them to about the same extent even if the proposed taxes be imposed. He etfnsiders it his privilege vto dose up with proprietary medicinhs* to play cards, to chew and smoko* tobacco and to drink wjiisky. These are a part of his personal liberties. It is to maintain them intact that he votes the democratic ticket He did not vote for the sub-committee on internal revenue to act as a monitor over his affairs. Nor, in fact does this committee intend these taxes for disciplinary purposes. Why, then, levy any more taxes upon consumption—taxes which always bear heayily upon the comparatively poor and compel individuals to pay, not in proDortion to their ability, but to their needs. It is scarcely possible to lay an indirect tax that will not be paid by the already over-taxed poor consumer. It is entirely possible to lay a direct tax that will not touch the ordinary wage earner, but will compel the now exempted millionaire to contribute a moiety of his immense income lo the support of the government that protects his possessions. A tax on legacies; a tax on the incomes of corporations that partake of the nature of monopolies, or even the inquisitorial tax or. individual incomes are preferable by far to any indirect tax. Any or all of these can be levied and ^made to yield an immense income without taxing over and over again the same persons who are now taxed almost out of house and home. But aside from this double taxation of the masses and -the practical exemption of the rich under indirect‘taxation, there are other important reasons why we should change to direct taxation as rapidly, as possible. All of M the revenue from a direct tax goes to \the support of the government An indirect tax usually puts more in the pockets of private individuals and corporations than • into the gove-pment vaults. Thus the import duty of onehsjlf cent per pound on refined sugar has taxed the American people to the extent of $20,000,000 a year. The duty of $13.44 per ton on steel rails has drained about $60,000,000 from the people .during the last three years. In neither case has the government received any benefit from these indirect . taxes. When a person pays a direct tax he realizes that he is paying a tax and he keeps his eye on the government to see if it heeds all of the revenue collected and does not waste any of it Indirect taxes are not seen or felt when paid and the payer of them does not concern himself about the use to which they are put They thus drain away his substance and weaken and deaden his feeling of responsibility as a citizen. It is no part of the business of democrats to levy new indirect taxes, or even to spend time discussing taxes that are better adapted for instruments of extortion in the hands of tnonarchs than as revenue measures in a repub- * lie, where every voter should be made to feel in part responsible for every act of government Byron W. Holt.

THE MERCILESS SUGAR TRUST. No Chairman Wilson Should Have Left Bonus at All for It. 4 The ways and means committee proposes tb reduce the duty on refined sugar from % to M cent per pound. This practically says to the trust: “Hereafter you will be permitted to take only $10,000,000 instead of $20,000,000 per annum from the pockets of the people.” If any duty is to be left on sugar it should be levied equally on raw and refined. This would turn the revenue collected into the United States treasury and'not into the bulging pockets of the trust In discussing the “prospects of the sugar trust,” the Journal of Commerce and the Commercial Bulletin, the greatest commercial daily in this country, said on December 9th: “Gentlemen interested in the refining of sugar have made through newspaper interviews two predictions of the course they and their associates would take if the sugar duty were reduced as the Wilson bill proposes. One gentleman predicts the closing of the refineries; the other, without going into details of explanation, announces that no foreign sugar is to be admitted; the refiners will make prices that will prevent this. “We have no doubt that the latter statement is much nearer the truth than the former. There is already considerable capital invested in re fineries, and we have no idea that this will be abandoned. The profits of the refiners are such that they ean reduce prices a good deal without reducing their Profits below figures with which most ,— business men would be satisfied. Of ^ course, they will endeavox to reduce prices without redi cing th8h profits, aid, like many other manufacturers, they are announcing that if they continue in business they will make heavy reductions in wages. The truth is that, as business men, they will get their labor as cheap as they can whatever the duty on sugar may he; they ill pay the wages that the condition e labor market compels them to p*»y, and if their protection were increased four-fold they would aot on tliat account raise wages; and their

protection might be removed entirely without compelling them, or perhaps without allowing them, to reduce wages. Wh. ther the condition of the labor market will enable the refiners |o reduce w ages remains to be seen; it depends upon many things besides the duties on raw and refined sugars. “When %he Wilson bill was promulgated it waii promptly announced that a reduction of the present duty would be disastrous to the refining industry, because that was now paying only 7 per cent on its preferred and 12 per cent, on its common stock. Most of the productive interests of this country would regard themselves as in a thoroughly vigorous condition if they could pay 7 per cent on the preferred stock and have enough profit left to divide 12 per cent on the common stock, even supposing that the preferred and common stock represented the actual investment of capital in the business. But we apprehend that no one will seriously deny that the sugar refineries

are equalized at three times the value of their^lants. They may reckon their gopfftHll and various other intangible assets as worth millions of dollars, and there may be some dispute about the propriety of capitalizing these so-called properties; but probably no one will pretend that the visible investments of the sugar trust are worth more than one-third the sum at which the trust is capitalized. On the actual invest* ment, then, the trust may be deemed to be earning 21 per cent on its preferred and 3d per cent on its common stock, and these profits might be very much reduced without tempting any of | the sugar refiners to withdraw their capital and put it into any other inI d us try.' - “As the government needs additionalrevenue, we should have been glad to see a duty of say 25 per cent ad valorem, or, as now proposed by Mr. Harter, one cent per pound, levied on all sugars, raw and refined. The refiners would then have had an amount of protection measured by the extent to which refining abroad adds to the value of the sugar, llut the dividends paid on an extremely inflated stock prove that on the score of profits the trust has no claim upon the consideration of congress. Certainly from no other point of view has it any claim upon the sympathies of congress or the people even, if sympathies were a proper foundation for a tax law. Neither capital nor labor has ever received the slightest consideration from the trust, and. we see no reason why the trust should be treated with a mercy it has known nothing of vphen dealing with others. It is willing now to shield itself behind its employes, as to. whose constant employment at remunerative wages it seems solicitous. But no humane considerations have detered the trust from shutting down refineries in the interest of its absolute controrof the market It has always been perfectly willing to render capital profitless and labor unemployed if necessary to tighten its grip upon the market and enable it .to earn such profits as only lottery managers are familiar with. It has crushed the capitalists whom it could not force into alliance with itself, and its solicitude for the welfare of the American workingman has been limited strictly to political emergencies. “A significant response to the complaint that the reduction of the duty on refined sugar would ruin the refining industry, is the fact that within a short period a new refining company witft a capital of a million dollars and a refinery in Yonkers will put a thousand barrels of sugar a day on the market. It is seldom that capitalists put a million dollars into an enterprise just as it is about to be ruined by adverse legislation.” * THE DIFFERENCE.

Ad Valorem and Specific Doties Defined. Under an ad valorem tariff our customs officials must watch for undervaluation frauds. Under specific duties the people cannot escape being robbed whether they watch or not. Specific duties group a number of articles together and charge as much upon the cheaper as upon the more costly. The poor family gets the worst of the deal right along. When a tariff of specific duties is framed the lobbyist is on hand to have classifications arranged so that his protected infant shall have prohibitive rates under cover of apparently low rates on articles which are little used i or which need no protection. While the lobbyist is at work the foreign manufacturer and the importer are not asleep. They modify their goods a little, change the style of packing and employ various arts to slip into the j most advantageous classifications. | Sometimes they succeed, often they fail. But when they do succeed they make fortunes. While the ad valorem system may permit John Wanamaker to import undervalued ribbons and trimmings, the specific system is a born fraud In the one there is some risk of fraud, increasing rapidly as the rate is made higher and decreasing * rapidly as the rate is reformed, while- in the other is a certain fraud, constantly acting. Chairman Wilson’s preference for ad valorem duties is democatic. The party always preferred them and its great reform achievement of 1846 was founded upon that principle. — St. Louis Republic. Tariff Bill JProsgects. There seems to be no room for doubt that the business men of the country, irrespective of party, are anxious to have the bill passed and put in operation as soon a.s may be consistent with proper deliberation and attention to harmony of detail. If the republicans as politicians really think that the bill will be injurious to the country, they must think that it will be injurious to sstbe party resiponsible for it Therefore they ought to be entirely willing to see it put in operation as soon as possible, so that its effects might be seen before the congressional elections next November. Hence there is ground for the hope that they will not lend their aid to any faction of the majority which may attempt to emasculate the bill.-*-’ Chicago Herald. *

THE FARMING WORLD. HOW TO CUT PORK. A DUptm Which Will Be of Help to the . Inexperienced. There are many ways of cutting and curing pork. The mode to he pursued depends largely upon the use for which it is intended and the different markets to which it is to be sent. Sometimes the hip bone in hams is removed at the socket and sometimes it is left untouched, while the shank is left Ion# to the hock joint, or cut up close to the ham. The shoulder may be cut square back of the shoulder-blade and neck, or trimmed oil! rounding at the upper part The bacon pieces may extend from the ham to the shoulder or the flank may be separated from the back. Sometimes the tips of the ribs are left in. The side containing the bone is called mess pork. Without the bone it is called clear pork. The accompanying diagram will doubtless be of assistance in enabling the inexperienced to master the process. The head should first be cut off and the carcass divided inhalves by splitting the backbone9 lengthwise'-. The shoulders and hams, 1 and 2, should be taken out. The rump piece, S, 7 and 9, can either be salted or used fresh; 4, 5 and 6, the “mess” pork,. are good for chops, cutlets or roasts, or the ribs may be removed and the whole side, including 8, may be turned into

HOW TO CUT. oacon. The lower part, 8, is the portion most highly esteemed for bacon. It should be cut in long strips, convenient for smoking. The head should be split down, and the jowels, II, salted or smoked. The remainder of the head, with .the ears ano feet, may be pickled. To cure pork put an inch layer of salt in the bottom of a barrel and then pack in a layer of pork as solidly and as closely as possible, with the rind next to the staves of the barrel. Put a layer of .salt on top of the pork, then pork again," and so on until the barrel is full. Then place on top of all a board cut nearly to fit inside the barrel. Weight it down with a heavy stone, (hen fill up with a brine of cold water containing all the salt it will hold in solution. _ Pork must never be packed until it is entirely free from all animal heat, nor must a barrel or cask be used that has ever held anything else. The best quality of salt should be used in the proportion «>f fifty pounds to a barrel. If a little saltpetre is added the pork will harden and assume a reddish tint. The parts destined for hams or bacon should be salted by themselves. This curing should be sufficient to season them only, as if too much salt is used the flavor is affected. To make a pickle for 100 pounds of ham or bacon take four gallons of water, six pounds of salt, two and a half ounces of saltpetre, one andJo half pounds of granulated sugar. Boil, skim, and use when cold. J.-" For dry salting the proportions are a pound of brawn sugar to four pounds of salt;- The hams should be rubbed daily for ten days ^with the preparation, after which they are ready for smoking. The meat should be hung up so as to dry thorouglily before smoking is' attempted^ Six days of consecutive smoking in a dark house is sufficient. Corncobs, green hickory or sugar maple chips are good for smoking. Some people prefer hardwood sawdust The pieces should then be hung in a dark, dry place, of even temperature.

Euectrigitt is actively engaged, every day, in taking away employment for light and medium horses. Yet soine men go on breeding such, with a mistaken notion that there is yet an active demand for them. If one has plenty of yard room, where the cattle can keep clean and dry, we think it a good plan to turn them out for awhile every pleasant day. Exercise, fresh aii^afad sunlight help wonderfully toward Keeping them well and hearty. > The best permanent pastures are obtained on land that are comparatively low—not wet Higher locations are better fitted for temporary grass growths as it is difficult to secure a permanent sod there, one that will live and thrive season after season. The manure from different kinds of stock, fed in different ways, will be widely different in quality. It is a good plan to have a manure pit so arranged that all can be thrown in together and thoroughly mixed before being put out to the field i The sheep farmer who puts his dependence in the best breed rather than In the tariff, and goes ahead to produce a valuable mutton carcass and a good fleece of wool, is’ pretty sure to come out all right. Politics and legislative aid are pretty poor things for a farmer to build his hopes on. PerhapS' you do not think it best to keep your stock indoors all the time throughout the winter. But at least bear in mind that exposure to storms and sudden changes in temperature cannot fail be very detrimental. Pay attention to this and put them under cover when the need appears.

But the same end can be accomplished more quickly, more surely, and with a better final outcome by the introduction of new and better Hood The best result comes from a combination of all these things..—Prairie Fafiner. ?
