Saturday, April 3, 1886. 
Mr. Landrey's motion in the Dominion 
House of Commons to censure the Govern¬ 
ment for hauling "Riel has been defeated by 
94 majority—146 against 52—a very emphatic 
indorsement of the Government. Consider¬ 
able race bitterness still exhibited. Members 
for the French sections, who voted against 
the motion, blacklisted at home. 
The deficit in the Dominion income for the 
present year is estimated, by the Finance 
Minister, at *1,450,000, owing to the cost of 
putting down the Riel rebellion. Besides giv¬ 
ing largo land grants, the Government ad¬ 
vanced most of the money for budding the 
Canada Pacific Railway, taking its own land- 
grants as security. This laud it is now about 
to release, so as to enable the road to sell or 
otherwise raise money on it, and thus it will 
he able to pay $20,000,000 of its indebtedness 
to the Government by July 1.Ameri¬ 
can fish masters are chartering Canadian 
vessels to transport fishermen hired in Canada 
to their vessels beyond the three-mill limit. 
The cruiser Lansdowne has warned oil" a 
number of Yankee vessels that ventured with¬ 
in the “tabooed” league.The Northern 
I J . R. R has. at last,, deposited with a St. Paul 
bank $1,173,383 survey fees for its lauds in 
Dakota. After the lands have been surveyed 
the title will pass from the Government to the 
roads, and the land can be taxed. To avoid 
local taxes, all the land-grant, railroads have 
for years allowed their la ml to remain unsur¬ 
veyed and the titles to rest in the Government 
until the lauds were actually sold. Congress 
and a late decision ol" the D". 8. Supreme Court 
have stopped this tu x shirking trick ........ 
The inhabitants of Western Kansas claim 
theirs is the richest part of the State, and that 
the capital being hundreds of miles away, aud 
all the State institutions along the Missouri 
border, their section is deprived of its due 
share of advantages: hence they are talking 
about making it a separate State. 
.Senator Sabin (Mina.) introduced a bill 
last Wednesday to declare forfeited to the 
United States ail lands granted to any State or 
corporation to aid in the construction of rail¬ 
roads, that have not been earned by the con¬ 
struction of the roads.Senator 
Vance |N. C.l is opposed to “official immortal¬ 
ity 1 ' and wants the abolit ion of tjjp Civil Ser¬ 
vice Commission, and “Civil Service” tenure 
of office. He is backed up by tens of thousands 
of “outs” who want to get “in,” as well as by 
their friends, “practical politicians,” “line 
political workers,” etc., etc. Early Civil Ser¬ 
vice rigor seems to be relaxing—just a trifle 
now. with a tendency to more... 
_The House Committee on Rivers and liar- 
hoi’s wants an appropriation of $15,164,200 
for improvements in navigable waters. 
Some of the places to be “improved” wouldn’t 
float a pleasure shell. The Senate is bound 
to make additions, to be allowed or cut down 
by a conference committee. Of the 15 meni- 
liers of the Cora, on R. and H.. one is from N. 
Y.; one from Pa.; and one from Mass.; of 
the other 12. five are from the West and seven 
from the South. The W. and S. “go in,” in 
a big-handed way, for generous appropria¬ 
tions. The Mississippi claims $3,S00,o00; and 
the Missouri and Ohio, $1,200,600.. Sheridan, 
like Logan, favors an increase of the army. 
“The savings on transportation bills in bring 
ing troops from a distance to quell Indian out¬ 
breaks” would nearly pay for the increase. . 
.The Pension Bill calls for $75,000,000 
— $15,000,000 more than last year. The pres¬ 
ent pension outlay would be nearly doubled, 
if all the pension' bills now before Congress 
were passed.. Mrs. Warner objects to 
the seizure of property by the sheriff, in ac¬ 
cordance with the late judgments against her 
husband. Warner has disappeared with all 
the “portable property,” and the rest is in the 
name of his wife—an “innocent holder”. 
.. .Reduction iu public debt during March is 
estimated at *14.250,000.A half-mi'lion- 
dollar hotel will soon be erected in Kausas 
City. Phew!.The Western Silk Asso¬ 
ciation in session, Wednesday, at Chicago, is 
to order an advance of 20 per cent, in manu¬ 
factured silk—it is- said. The American Silk 
Association, representing Eastern manufac¬ 
turers, have formed a union with the Western 
men “to control the entire silk-producing in¬ 
dustries of thp country.”... ; - 
.. .Truly tropical rains early in the week in 
Alabama, Georgia, La., Tennessee, very 
heavy rains also in adjacent States—eight in¬ 
ches in two days were common iu the Gulf 
States, and ten inches, in three. Hillsides 
badly “washed” aud gullied; growing crops 
and garden track greatly injured, or ruined 
in many places; rivers booming or flooding 
bottom lands; many mills and buildings near 
water-courses wrecked or engulfed or swept 
away; considerable loss of fences, stacked 
crops and live stock. Tornadoes, thunder 
showers, cloud bursts aud local winds-storms 
reported. Melting snows, ice gorges and 
heavy rains arc also booming rivers in -New 
England, especially in Me., N. H. and Xt. 
Much property destroyed. The West, too, is 
suffering from or threatened with floods...... 
..The whole surface of Lake 
Michigan is rising at. the rate of four inches 
per j T ear: surface now two-and-one-half feet 
higher than it was seven years ago Chicago 
likely to la* submerged, to the exceeding 
great joy of St. Louis....The Bureau of 
Statistics reports that the total values of our 
exports during the twelve months ended 
February 28, 1886, were $003,723,574, and 
during the proceeding 12 months $748,003,261, 
a decrease of $84,270,027. The total values of 
the imports for the twelve months ended Feb¬ 
ruary 28. 1886, were $007,711,701— and for the 
preceding twelve mouths $604,489,440, an in¬ 
crease of $4,222,201, a total difference of $87,- 
501,888 between our exports aud imports this 
year and last, against this year, Small won¬ 
der that while we imported gold from Eu¬ 
rope last year, we are sending millions of it 
abroad now; nearly the whole ^difference d 
due to a decrease in our exports of agricultur¬ 
al produce. 
_A great Are at Key West, Fla., has burned 
up most of that little wooden, rock-based, sea¬ 
girt town; 4,500 inhabitants homeless mostly 
“patriotic” Cuban oigar-and-eignrette makers, 
the principal part of the population of the 
broad-veranded, palm aml-palmetto-shaded 
place. Total loss about $1,500,000: famine 
staring the employment-less population grim¬ 
ly in the face...*. 
.What little chance Eads 1 ship-railway 
had ever had has been killed l>y the publica¬ 
tion of his “jug-handled” concession from 
Mexico. The United States is to guarantee 
an annual income of $2,600,000; Mexico half 
as much. The U. S. is to pay cash; M. in 20 
year bonds. “Americans” must pay freight 
in gold; Mexicans in silver, Mexican govern¬ 
ment vessels etc., etc., to be carried free; 
those of the U. S. to pay 75 per cent, of reg¬ 
ular rates. The U. S. can’t use the road at 
all at any time without, the consent of M.; 
M. can sire aud appropriate the road in cer¬ 
tain contingencies. In return for these “con¬ 
cessions” the U. S. becomes liable for $87,000,- 
000, without any security, aud all litigation 
must be carried on iu Mexican courts! — 
_Of the Bell Telephone Company’s capital 
of $10,000,000, only $3,000,000 arc p’aid up: on 
this the dividends last year amounted to 
$1,500,000! The company convened at Bos¬ 
ton the other day, and all were cheerful. 
The Pan-Electric scandal is still being venti¬ 
lated at Washington, and the disclosures of 
greed, cunning, trickery and unsempulousness 
continues. Because one of these companies 
is as bad as the other is no reason why the 
public should allow itself to be oppressed or 
swindled by either.General Master 
Workman Powderley, bead-chief of the 
Knights of Labor, is very sick at his home in 
Scranton, Pa., where he called Wednesday on 
his way to St. Louis from his conference with 
Jar Gould here. He is troubled with sleep¬ 
lessness, a sore chest and symptoms of typhoid 
fever. He has also quinsy, toils and fractured 
ribs. Absolute rest aud no worry prescribed. 
He lias been “winning golden opinions from 
all sorts and eomlitions of men.”.. 
Strikes here and there all over the country 
are still “the order of the day.” That on the 
“Gould railroad system” still continues stub¬ 
bornly. Early iu't.he week Master Workman 
Powderly, of the Knights of Labor, held an 
amicable conference with Jay Gould in this 
city, aud it. seemed agreed that arbitrators 
should be appointed to settle the matter. Or¬ 
ders were sent at once for resumption of 
work. Next day Gould declared that he had 
been misunderstood, and those of the men who 
had gone to work again “knocked off,” The 
same thing has been repeated since then, 
owing to another “misunderstanding.” The 
men refuse to return to work unless all are 
permitted to go back; the railroad officials 
will not permit, the return of ringleaders or of 
those who have damaged property. A 
large number of freight t rains are running on 
all the roads in charge of new hands. Strike ,-s 
starving, exasperated and “ugly”—ready for 
violence to property and “scabs.” Militia 
gone to Parsons, Kans., and Fort Worth, 
Texas, where the roads are blocked, armed 
strikers massed and serious trouble feared. 
The commerce and trade of the whole country 
are sutt'eriug; those of the tributary regions, 
of course, most severely; hopes of early settle¬ 
ment.; fears of much bloodshed, great, trouble 
and considerable delay.. 
Transcontinental rates arc still being cut, 
passenger rates down to $6, last Wednesday, 
from tbeMississppi to the Pacific. Freight rates 
still “ruinously” low; though the Union Pa¬ 
cific refuses to take first-class freight below 
$1.05 per 100 pounds, to San Francisco Other 
roads cut that classmucb lower, and all knock 
down rates on other classes. A settlement 
perhaps in May—then the Canadian Pacific 
will be open aud claim a bite of the cherry... 
A bill introduced in Congress by Represent¬ 
ative John J. O’Neil, of Missouri, Chairman of 
the Committee on Labor, provides for the 
voluntary submission of disputes between rail¬ 
roads engaged in interstate commerce and 
their employ 6s to boards of arbitration, the 
members of which are to to chosen one by the 
employers, one by the mmloy&t, and a third 
by the two first, chosen. These arbitrators are 
to have the powers and pay of United States 
commissioners, being empowered to subpoena 
witnesses, aud compel them to answer under 
oath, and their salaries are to be paid by the 
Government. The bill in its present shape 
seems to have no compulsory features except 
what are included in the giant of commission¬ 
ers' powers to the arbitrators. Much opposit¬ 
ion is displayed, and many emasculating 
“amendments” are being pressed. Several 
States are also legislating with regard to ar¬ 
bitration between employers and employes— 
After two years’ trial, we unhesitatingly 
pronounce the Boss Zinc and Leather Col¬ 
lar Pad, the only durable and successful one 
that we have ever used, it retains its shape, is 
cooling, prevents chafing, aud thereby keeps 
the horses' necks clean and healthy. Hiram

The West is the great hog-paeking section 
of the country, the number packed each year 
elsewhere being comparatively small. The 
packing year is divided into two sections—the 
summer, from March 1 to Nov. 1; aud the 
winter, from November 1 to March 1. Sum¬ 
mer packing first acquired importance in 1872, 
when 505,000 hogs were packed. Since then 
the business in the eight months has steadily 
increased, ns may be seen by the following 
table, for which, with most of the other infor¬ 
mation here given, we are indebted to the 
careful compilations ot the Cincinnati Price-

Last summer there was a gain in the num¬ 
ber packed each month except August, the 
heaviest inrush of hogs being in October, as 
growers were frightened by the prevalence of 
nog cholera, especially In Mo., Kans. and 
NcIi. The approximate number of hogs 
packed in the 12 great Western packing States 
was:—

The total number of hogs packed during the 
Winter is equivalent to 6,121, 037 of the aver¬ 
age weight, of the Winter ol’ 1684-85, making 
the decrease equal to 339,203 hogs, or 5},, per 
cent. The following table of the number 
packed in the 12 States in the four winter

pared with List year—which would mean 
something over half a million in number. 
These exhibits indicate the larger decrease to 
be west of the Mississippi River—the average 
for Iowa. Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska be¬ 
ing 84, and for the other States 94. 
Editor Murray (whose forecasts generally 
approximate facts) is convinced that, in spite 
of these figures compiled from his reports, the 
ekauces favor a supply of hogs available for 
the coming Summer fully equal to last year’s 
number, especially if growers should, later in 
the season see reasons lor holding back their 
stock for November or later packing. Since 
March 1, the number of hogs sold is somewhat 
larger than iu the corresponding period last 
year. ___
