The Exeter Advocate, 1893-12-28, Page 345.,Ttrx, Abuoratt,. SANDE12S & DYER,'1'r'ops, THURSDAY. December 28, 1893 T"IIE AMERICAN TARIFF BILL• There is great; cacit mCet in Wash- ington just now over the monthly re - pert of the Committee on Ways and. Means, That report was prepared by ex -Speaker Reed°, and presented just before the adjoin nment of Congress for the Christmas holidays. It has thrown a bernbshell into the Democratic iiaaaks, many of whom are about to withdraw their support if the Wilson ta'rif'f bill should. pass. As we hinted in, a previous number of this journal, the Wilson Bill is specially obnoxious,. tothe manufacturers who are backed by the millionaires of the United States Those' man'ufaeturcrs are formingc themselves into a league to defeat, if possible, the passage through (:oiinress of the Wilson tariff in its present shape. The minorityreport vigorously oppos es anything like the admission of Ca- nadian products into the U. S. free of. duty -particularly coal. It contends that Nova Scotia coal, if admitted free, would compete disastrously with the mines of Pennsylyania and Virginia to- the injury of railroad companies. Ie. the minority report it is contended that, • ° while the Wilson Bill professes to raise ilii a revenue, its effect would be to 'owe) se the U. S. revenue by $74,000,000--- le 74,000,000—,., whereas the revenue of 1893 was only two million dollars over and -above m v ' sunning expenses; and while the pro- f., µ posed tariff pretends to give protection, ;it really destroys it in . every, ,possible' way. It is quite evident from the re v' portpresented by the n inority that one of the chief objections to theWilsou tariff is the proposal to admit Canadian coal free of duty—as they fear keen Competition from Nova Scotia ` mines in the East, and also from the immense coal deposits of Canada on the Pacific coast which, they say, are capable of ... supplying the whole of the north-west- ern states. We fear that there is little s prospect of obtaining reciprocal favors in tariff arrangements: from our Amer lean cousins, as theirolio first and •n y, r. to tat e�care�of•nuznber"one. I well, however, to know -and the Americans` are beginning to find that, out -that we in Canada can live without the United States, -and that even when we had a reciprocity treaty our neighbors were more the gainers. thereby than we in Canada. Since that time, howeyer, we have grown with our growth and have by giant strides attained the proportions of ea- tioual manhood. AA' 0I'HER SURPLUS. It must be gratifying to our cou servative friends to learn from the published aeeounts of the Dominion that there, is a substant1al surplus of revenue over and above' the expendi •tare for the "fiscal year, ending June �=8Oth The Hon. Mr. Foston is to be coli eatulated on his financial a.bilitl-. and ,ells success Int carrying' out the govern- f went promise of reducing the annual ° I expenditure, The blue book shows a ' surplus of revenue over elfpeuditure. for the last, financial year to be '$1,85'1, 555, This speaks well for Canada; for ,.•'" while in Great Britain there is a heavy' defeat for which the present Chancel- lor of Exchequer proposes increased taxation,—and while in the United s es States there is a shortage of $28,000,- i 28,000,i : 000 in the year's operations, -we ie �. under a r - �,nada good financial ili� 1 �,.tiaage. i,e ,. nt can 'oaisc of considerable 1 sue ,b a co sae able sur- �� ' plus. And when the ,Cabinet at Ottawa tbrings before Parliament the proposed' e modification of the tariff to meet the exigences of the different classes ill the community, it will be found that the changes contemplated will be more than met by the prosperous Condition ' sif our finances. • News of the Week in Brief.

A Variety of Poultry 'Which Returns a Fair Profit.., Talking with Mr. Nesmith a few weeks iago about the egg season, he send he breed- wished he had had twico as many 'breed- ing pens of Plymouth Rocks; that he had sold more than twice as many of their eggs as of any other variety and couldn't keep up with his orders for them. "In fact," said he, "I've a, good mind to keep nothing but Plynaouth Rocks hereafter. Everybody wants them, and the kind that . everybody wants ie the kind to keep," The foregoing is from 'the- pen ` of a contributor to Farm Poultry, who gives his own experience as follows: We have kept seven varieties of purebreds ,an out place this season and have been aware that the call for Plymouth Rook eggs was very loud, but were hardly pre- pared to give them such an astonishing lead as a comparative table of the sea• son's orders gives them. We began shipping eggs March 1 and shut down July 1, shipping in the four months over 800 sittings, as follows: Total sitting shipped. Barred Plymouth Rooks..... ....... ........ 2.83 White PlymouthRocks 81 Light Brahmas ` 12 Black Langshans 11, White Wyandottes 51 Silver Wyandottes 5f Golden Wyandottes 44 And that shows the Barred Plymoutl Rocks to be more than twice as popular as any other variety we have offered. We were surprised' that the Light Brahmas should have come second or the list, but perhaps they would nol have done so if we had not had twc large orders for 'them from California one of 12 and the other of 15 sittings, subtracting which: would put Light Brahmas in fourth place. White Wyandottes should be in seconc place, and would be easily if we had beer able to fill the orders sunt us. . We re turned the money for some 30 sittings of that variety, and 15 to 20 more sitting. 'were transferred toother varieties whey the eustomers were told they would hay( to wait five or six weeks for the eggs we being sold that much ahead on thal variety most of the season.'
