FICTDAY, JANUaKY 10, 1806 mujaaigF.-. J—ii—slil 1—i&L"g now Utah is Cleveland ha nation to that vini y i effect a state, President issued his proclaim! Saturday. *T The republican <g*ngre»s up to t1io present time has done nothing for the people. But they are still tinkering with she tariff. Andrew Carnfuie lias declared for arbitration ir. the Venezuelan dispute. lie gets? in too late for the j ru.nuing. He fehould have stood for arbitration in the Homestead dispute! three years ago, j - Town and county orders arc Being floated. The aufairs of both are ! governed strictly by republican oflicjals. Orders sell at a discount. Is it any wouder that the wheels ol pro'gre6s have stopped. Under ttie fee and salary law the state officials /will receive salaries without fees, i Under the new law the secretary bf state will receive ^$6,500 a year, the auditor $7,500, treasurer $6,500, the attorney-general $7,500 and the clerk of the appellate and supreme courts $5,000. "■ ■ h Those who beard Hon. James A. Demen way in the campaign of 1894 when beta!tacked the administration of Cleveland so bitterly for issuing bonds in time of peace niay be surprised to.head that lion. James A. U emeu way voted on last ’Saturday' for a bill the express purpose being to Issue bonds. It is another of ‘h.ose before and after acts.—Tell City News.

GoVf.HNOK MATTtBUWS* Speech &t Philadelphia showed him to be an enthusiastic disciple of Mu. roe. He is opposed to the encroachmente of any Of the European powers upon the’ soil of this hemisphere. A recent statement that he was willing:,to recognize the Sqhonibourgk line, made by au Indianapolircorrespondent to , pne ot the metroiitan papers, was an inju^ike, lie is all right upon all public questions including free silver "~""coinag?, unless he has changed of late.—Evansville Courier. ®ls furnishing am estimate of the j military strengtlWf th» stat'e, Governor Matthews shows that the Indiana militia consists ot some 30Q0 ablecbotlied me.n~'wbo can be made avail-' able on a moment’s notice armed with repeating rifles of the latest pahfceru. The artillery companies, however, are pot provided with the, latest field pieces. Within thirty davs the stale could furnish at le&dt 40,000 men to the government, well officered and equipped fin everything except in’ artillerv arms, which the government would have to furnish. Tije editor of the Press bowls about j publishing names of persons who are aided by the various township trustees, and seek- to make political ■'capital out ot the same. Well, for mercy sake, Willie, if you derive any comfort out of it keep up your best licks. By referring to last weeks Princeton leader he will fiud a long list of names published and the amounts received and more than that j the publishers w ill receive pay for the work. This is lone in a number of ooitnties in Indiana. There is no shame attached to it whatever. The editor of the Press can make a tew dollars extra in ihie way also.

Tan coupty printing for the coming year will probably cost three times as much during the year as the preceding year. The contract price for the year ending January 12. 118B6. is $073. There Is no definite sum named : for the coming year. And if there was more than one bidder for the ,work wy are not j aware of the fact. Another question that the' editor of the Pres* should answer: “was it ever advertised?”— Democrat. Tint Democrat knows very well that the i cMiuty printing will not.cost three times !as t much as it did last year. Burford, having a I lump contract with our commissioners seut I the worst stuff he had in stock down hereaud i the county officers rebelled. The near con- ' tract was made with the understanding that j the best grade oi paper was to be furnished | and the material that fails to give satisfaction is to be returned. The editor ,of Tuk I Democrat knows the schedule for next year I is a fair one and that it is no more than right, j that the work which can be done at home at a reasonable figure shou!| rome to this town. What hurts is the fact that Tub Democrat will not do the work —Pete rateu repress. The editor of Tuk Df.m^isat knows that the schedule is higher thau that of previous years. The editor of the Press knows also thjt it is higher than the schedule contract of 1893 For years the bids have been received on Thursday of the December term of commissioners' eoupt, but upon this occasion the conynict was made on Monday. If tue editor of the Press was notified that a contract would be let oyMonday' morning, the editor oC^The Democrat should also havb-^been notified that a bid would be received. Rut the Demo- j crat received no notice of the letting, j It it was advertised that a contract | would be let will the editor give the date it appeared ? We have no griev-! ance \^tuU'ever,j and are perfectly con-1 tented that the editor of the Press receive ail the patronage possible, hut I at the same time all bidders should j have a chance at the work. The! prices to be paid are higher than tor- \ merly aud the editor will nut deny i'. i If the editor will compare the present i schedule with that of 1$93 arid note the difference l^e may understand thl difference between the t wo schedules*! of prices. The books are open for] inspection.

The Hiurr.ent a mail gets bilious h«* becomes Irresponsible, anil being Irresponsible is liable- to do and say naughty things that cooler judgment would' not permit. The Democrat need j have no fear, -republicans - will take rare 01 tiie county without dirticuliy.—Detersbuig Dress. From recent “events tin? taxpayers are fast finding out to their sorrow that the “republicans will take- care j ot the countv without. difficulty.”! The republican party has fastened its claws on the tax-payers aud the county in fine style. Fdtr instance: county orders are float intN^od at a discount and the county debt increased to oyer $60.U00. IBooks a little bilious tor the tax-payers, doesn’t it? Ox December the 3uih, the Board of Commissioners let the contract lor furnishing the stationery to Warrick county for the coining y ar to Win. B. Burford <k Co. for ^J77.— Boonvllle Enquirer._. ■*“ It is different in Pike county. There is no watPof telling just what the stationery will cost the taxpayers of the county. The editor of the Petersburg Press amj the Seniiufcl printing company joined aud made a contract on the schedule plan higher than that made for a number of years. Pike county paid $575 last year.

NATIONAL REVENUES.! =» -' THERE WILL BE NO DEFICIT THE PRESENT f SCAL YEAR. Wilson Tariff Raim Enough Money to Meet Expense* of Government — It Is Now In Order For Republican Editor* , to Denounce Democratic Cheeseparing, j ‘‘Unless sometliing very unexpected happens,” writes Worthington C. Ford , to Bradstreet’s, “there will be no deficit1 in the national revenues in the year end- j ing June 30. f896. ” Air. Ford is the j first real statistician the treasury depart-1 ment has ever had. Hitherto th)it-pffice ■ was a sort of harbor of refuge fdr sbnae^ faithful worker iu the parties amid the ! lower ranks. Figures were grouped in j bald reports in a perfunctory way, as if j the “statistician” felt that he most: make some kind of a showing of work i to justify his office to the public that j paid him a salary, but that, since he' had the office for work already done, as ; little labor as possible should be per-! formed by him. But Mr. Ford brings to j his office the training and the instinct! of the statistician. He goes to his work S con am ore, and he has established among j all students of trade movements a repu-1 tation for accuracy that gives his state- j ment, quoted above, a credit independ- j ent of the reasons on which he bases! and with which he follows and supports his assertion. T$e two chief sources of federal revenue are sugar duties and internal taxes. Two factors may affect the sugar revenue, a decrease iu the domestic supply, j Owing to therwithdrawal of bounties, ! and an increase in price, editing iu a | diminished consumption. Making allowance for possible fluctuation, he expects ; an importation of at least 3,000,000,- j 000,000 pounds, which, if the import i price remains the same—below 3 cents —will produce a revenue of $31,000,000. The customs, aside from sugar, show an increase. The first four months of the new fiscal year show a customs revenue as large as was that of the same period in 1893, when the total, omitting sugar, was $177,000,000. “With some confidence therefore, ” he says, “I place the customs revenue fur 1890 at $ 190,000,000. ” Turning to the other source dt income, the internal revenue taxes, especially those on liquors, Mr. Ford dow not ex pint much increase from the advance of the tax on distilled J enirit^. .; Sufficient time has not elapsed j to enable a correct measurmiieut ot the ' effects of that increase to* made; The

-present, fact is that the receipts are not what they were under the old taxi If , legislation hostile to use of liquor does ; not interfere more than usual, he ex- J pectsj^au income of f ^5,000,000 ‘ from : that source, whilo the taxes from fer-! men tod liquor and tobacco will chahge 1 but little. The revenue from these two sources, with the $ 16,000,000 from incidentals, will bring the receipts up to $351,OO0,OUG, a sum that will bo ample „for the normal expenditures of the government. The “normal” is the amount1 expended before the hifty-firet congress, j began the experiment of decreasing rev- ! enue and increasing expenditure, the j result of which will discourage its successor, the Fifty-fourth, from attempt-! ing its repetition. Mr, Ford is 'cruolly indifferent to the 1 feelings of those Republican editors who | have strained their voices in denunciation of the ‘‘tariff for deficit ODly,” in . this demonstration that it will,with the I other taxes, provide a sufheient-revenue. j There seems nothing left for them to do \ now but to denounce the cheeseparing policy that proposes to muke’this something less tlian ‘‘a billion dollar” country, and to insist that the magnificent ; scale of expenditures inaugurated by thfp congress presided over by Mr. Reed add*, directed, in its economies, by Mr. Me- ; Kihley, shall be maintained ifi the “interests of labor and morality.”—St. Paul Globe.” A Steady Increase of Revenue. The people of the country will be j gratified to find that the usual deficit of : the last year or so in the revenues of the j country is omitted in the statement of the national treasury for the month of September. Instead of a deficiency there. is a surplus of $3,175,040. j True, a surplus may not appear in; the statement for October, but tlie generally improved midi t ion of the country gives a steady increase of revenue, ! and it may now be accepted that we are oupho threshold of paying our way in the administration of the government j But for the defeat of the income tax feature of the new tariff law, the revenues would today be more than ampld for all the expenditures of the government Time has thus vindicated the statesmanship that conceived and enact- j ed the Wilson tariff.—Philadelphia Times.

Republican Estimate of Quay. Quay is credited in Washington with scheming to be restored to his former place as chairman of the Republican ua tional couunit&e., and the same influeuoes which drove him oat,before are opposing his candidacy now. He was forced to resign his chairmanship in 1892 because his record and political methods were a bigger load than the t Republican party could safely carry, and he is the same Quay now that he was then, as his management of the reCent, campaign, in Pennsylvania proves, j He stands in the popular estimation today, even more clearly than before, as the type of the unscrupulous wire puller j and politician, and the Republican j party will commit itself to |iis methods if he becomes manager of its campaign. —Springfield Republican. Why Hatting* May Not Fight. Governor Hastings may not make a9 fight against Quay for a place on the Republican national delegation from Pkunsylvania, far the reason, according . to Ihe Harrisburg correspondent of the j Philadelphia Times, that such a fight, although ostensibly for himself, “would be a battle only fur Warwick, Martin and Magee." j

*, RESULT OF THE WILSON TARIFF. Good Eflfeot of Democratic LtftoWion on the Country. At the risk of infringing on their pa- j tience we must again ask. What have \ our high tariff friends to say now of the effect of the W’ilsou bill on the mann- i factoring business of this country? Are j they still'of the opinion that American ! mills and factories will not be able to meet European competition in their home territory? The new law has been in force about a year, and what is the result? The cotton mills of New Eng-; land and the south are all runn ing. The j weekly output of our-iron furiiaees has ! for ja couple of months been la ger than j ft/wSs'alKany period under th.> McKinley bill. ^The Hour mills of the country,; are busier now than they ever were ben fore. Our woodworking estabi i stun puts are behind in their work, and steelj manufacturers have onlers enot gh ahead ; to keep them busy for morn hs. The! same is true of our woolen milis, tobao- j co factories and manufacturing establishments generally. Trade has been stimulated, and manufacturers are exceptionally busy in j consequence. They have been able to meet European competition, uc only in the United Spates, but in ott er countries as well, and even in Europe. Our exports of manufactures have been increasing steadily for several months, i The only exception was in Jun . They ; were smaller that month than in May, | but larger than in any other : •ionth of ! the year. They were larger, too, than in 5 June, 1894. From a little over $12,- ’ 000,000 in February—about the same as in the corresponding month of hist year—they have increased x steadily j month, by month, not counting May, j when our foreign trade was so excep- i tionally heavy that increase in the sue- j ceeding month could not be looked for. j Our manufacturers certainly have no ] reason to,complain bf the results of Democratic legislation on tha tariff. They have been benefited, and so have their customers and the country iiygen- ] eraL—^t. Louis Republic. ’ *

EXPORT OF MANUFACTURES. Free Raw Materials Have K abled Us to Sell Iu Furejgn -Mar], ets. Thfe exports of mauufae ,md gi>xls from the United States for the first tgglit months of 1695 wore of t ie value of $129,440,864 as against $1 l8,000r000 in' the corresponding mouths o 1894. At! this rate the exports of the mtire year Would ;*u nut to $194,500 000, again of $17,000,000 over the. previous year. J This is about £ 1J ,000,000 more than the i exports of, any previous y< r. Iu 1892 ( our exports of ynuiuf actum goods were , only lo.Ol per cent of our ttrtul exports, j Last year they were 23.14 per cent, , This year s exports shov a largo increase in agricultural implements, ma-' chiuery, chemicals, locomot vcs, sewing machines, Ixxjta and shoes, refined min- i oral oil and manufacturers of tobacco. The increase in the exports of locomotives approximates 200 per cent. In some of the articles the exports us yet are small, but the figures show a handsome percentage of* growth. Iii others the exports run up toinauy millions. The protectionists have a good deal i to say about the increase of imports and the falling off of agricultural exports, , wbieh last is duo to short crops, but are discreetly silent with reference to the ; increase of our manufacturing exports. ; Which demonstrates the ability of many , manufacturers that are highly protected to Compete in the marktts£uf the world. This ability has been'strengthened greatly bjr the* new tariff, u&ieh has given our manufactnrerl-4meaper materials The manufacturers themselves are com jug to a realization of the need of wider markets. To secure these rficre is necessary than cheap production. 51 any of our consuls report that what is chiefly i needed is a more careful study of the ' needs of foreign markets, so as to pro- j dace goods that are adapted to the tastes and habits of those who consume them. —Louisville Courier-Journal. * - ----- I Manufacturers- May Have a Word to Say. j One of the effects of free trade in wool is witnessed iu the exportation of j considerable quantities of the American j •dip, says the Philadelphia Record, j “Under McKinleyism American manu-: fact brers could not import the best va-j rieties of foreign wool, while American j wool was kept out of foreign markets, i But now there is no doubt that foreign ! manufacturers will become acquainted with the good qualities of many varieties of American wooL At the same time. American manufacturers will continue under free trade to import the fin- • eat foreign fleeces. Should the wool du-; lids be restored they will stop importing all" but the coarsest class, and a: large part of their manufacturing will stop with it. It is a significant fact that the, manufacturers ue not, asking, for a revival of the wool duties. After a while they will summon up sufficient resolution to protest against a policy which threatens so muc h detriment to j theif interests.

The Stronghold of Democracy. Ex-Governor Campbell of Ohio, in one of his late utterance, declares that the Democratic party in Ohio ia making j great gains in the country as distinguished from the cities. The country has always been the reliance of Democ- j racy. Pennsylvania it* a Democratic! state on a full poll of her voters if the Republican majorities in Philadelphia and Pittsburg be excluded from the count.—Philadelphia H cord. Hot • Word'For t .»• Soldier. Although it is SO ears since the war, the Boston Transcript (Rep.) finds occasion to note that the Massachusetts | Republican platform m ade no mention of the yeteruu soldi As and sailors of the rebelliou. It is a “singular omission,” The Transcript thinks. Take Notice, Faelt John! The iron furnaces of the United States j ere now turning out 50,000 tons a week more than their weekly output last October. John Sherman should make a ante of this. —Boston H*rak£
