PROHIBIT SHODDY.
Whatever else may be done with
the tariff question at the session of
congress beginning, the first thing
should be the amending of the pres-
sent law so that the importation of
snoctdy aBd rags will be absolutely
prohibited. This, even without a
tariff on wool, would be of great
benefit, enhancing the value of wool,
and at the same time giving the peo
pie better clothing.
Coupled with this should be an
other law, compelling all goods con
taining shoddy to be plainly marked.
both while in the bolt and after be
ing made up into clothing. The
people have a right to know what
they are buying. If to these laws
can be added a reasonable tariff on
wool, it would be of immense bene
fit to that industry.
From present appearances it is
not probable, however, that anything
will be done at this session of con
gress. It seems to be considered
certain by leading politicians that
McKinley will call an extra session
of congress soon after his inaugura
tion, for the purpose of revising the
tariff, and until that time there is
but little prospect of any change in
the tariff laws.
ington and some other ptates con
cerning the payment of taxes. The
system is based upon the theory that
by dividing the debt it becomes
easier to pay, and hence the law has
in those states provided that half the
taxes may be paid in the spring and
half in the fall. We believe the sys
tem is a" good one, and that the de
linquent roll would be much smaller
if the taxes could be paid in install
ments. Wherever the system has
been ' adopted it ha3 produced good
results, and there is no reason why it
should not have the same result here.
Quite a number of our exchanges
do not seem to realize that the elec
tion is over, but keep whacking awav
at Bryan as though he was still in
sight. As a matter of fact he is
buried under an avalanche, of nearly
a million votes, and his political re
mains, just now could not be reached
with a dynamite gun. The country
has had Its. fill of elections for a
while, and will appreciate a rest.

According to the latest Cuba dis
patches, Weyler has at last found
Maceo, his army being surrounded
by that of the insurgents. Of course
the next thing in order for the
doughty- captain-general to do is to
present Maceo with that mortal blow
he has been carrying concealed about
hU person so long. Beinforcements
are being sent from Havana, but in
.the meanwhile the insuigents are
making it so interesting for that city
that but little aid from it can be ex
pected by Weyler or anybody else:
It has plenty of work to do in keep
ing the insurgents out of its suburbs.
It seems probable that Spain will
take, and be glad to take, less than
the $100,000,000 offered her for
Cuba, and that before long Cuba
will be, so to speak, among the rem

counter. Spain missed a splendid Br eakfaSt FOOd,

General Rugcr, of the department
of the East, says in his annual report
that the present military force of the
nation is inadequate as a reliable
basis in the event of war with a mari
Urne power, and he deems it esDeei-
ally desirable that slate artillery or
ganizations should be drilled for sea
coast defensive purposes. His
suggestion is that action be had to
induce in each state in which there
i are seacoast defensive works the
designation of a regiment or of cer
tain companies of state troops as
heavy artillery, without abando
merit necessarily of their instructions
in geneial as infantry. General Ru
ger adds: "Practice has been had
by some,: and is in progress by
others, of the garrisons of heavy ai
tillery with the new; high-power guns
and mortars at the stations where
they are in position. Such practipe
Ms been generally satisfactorily in
result. It has demonstrated that
facility in operating the appliances
for use of such guns is readily ac
quired by the men of the batteries,
when intelligently directed." These
suggestions are practical and worthy
of the attention of the military au
thorities of states having seacoast
defenses. From present indications
Oregon will in due time be one of
these, the preliminary work on the
fortifications at Fort Stevens being
now in progress.
