RAISING MULES IN GEORGIA.
The News and many other papers
have frequently called the attention
of oor farmers to the importance of
noting their own mules and horses,
»nd we are pleased to learn that
■took raising is making some pro
gr«M in the State. Georgia pays
hundreds of thousands of dollars
every year to Tennessee anil Ken
tacky stock farmers for mules,
which can be raised in this State
cheaper than on the high priced blue
grass lands. Mr. W. J. Northern,
president of the State Agricultural
Society, thinka the farmers of Geor
*gia are beginning to realize this
and that there will be moro
raised in Georgia hereafter, i
Brunswick Journal says;
Some time ago the Journal men
tioned the fact that Mr. J- B.
Warner, of Greeno county, bad
in Florida a car load of mules of
own raising. This was probably
lirst round lot of mules ever
in Greeue county for the market.
the contrary, Greene Ido all
other counties in the State,
thousands of dollars annually
Tennessee and Kentucky mules.
»Ve are glad to note an
interest that is being manifested
stock raising in Georgia. The
intelligent and thoughtful farmers
the State are giving the
their attention, and all that
tried it so far have prospered.
Among the most prominent
stances of men who have been
cessful in this line is Mnj^-'W.
Wilkins, of Burk county He
over ?30.000 invested m fine
and is greatly eneourifced with
experience so far. He took
premiums at the Piedmont
tion, at Atlanta, last fall.
It is said that moles are raiaOvl
Liberty oounty at a cost of $25
which would co*C from $125 to
if brought from Kentucky or
ucssee.
This portion of tho country is
oulisriy adapted for i aiding stock
almost every description and is
tined to bscome u great stock
mg country. Instead of
money out of the State for
•took will be raised here and
elsewhere. Tile climate is so
here that stock is ersily kept
tbiough tbe winter with little
nml tbe grass grows all the
toned.

Have been practicing rnedi line fifteen
years, end of all the medicines I have
ever seen for the bowols Dr. Bigger*’
Huckleberry Cordiel is b? fm the b^ct,
j 9.—I am a tariff reform Democrat,
and have been studying tariff for
many years in all of its phases
There is ranch I may understand
; and more that I don’t, and there is
j one be pleased thing I to want hear to from know and stall
you an ex
planation of it. We Democrats con
tend that by reduciug the taiiff on
several articles we will have less
surplus in the Treasury. Yet, recoi
Jecting that the receiptsjore tariff, now will very-
large with tho present not
the reduction on the articles mes
tioned cause of them a greater the exportation people of
and sale to
this country with a necessary in
crease of the ^surplus fond f True,
by doing this the foreign macufactu
rer pays it uml not the consumer,
yet how does it tally with some ex
pressions I have hoard from protni
nent Democrats T Ixouirek.”
To this the Courier Journal to
plies as follows;
We do not think that the rcduc
tions proposed by the Mills Bill
would linvc the effset of increasing
the revenue derived from tho imper
tatiou of any article of consequence,
if upon any at all. The reductions
are not radical, and would not stirnu
late such an increase in imports as
would augment the customs revc
nues by moro than it lessened them.
Most assuredly tho general result of
all tho redactions proposed would be
a largo diminution of the revenues
derived from duties on imports.
The present tariff is so high that cn
most articles the i-.ew rate agreed
upon by the framers of the Mills
Bill would be practically protective
against any such flood of imports as
our correspondent Bcems to antici
pate.
Besides, he appears to hive forgot
ten the important additions which
the b'll makes to tho free list. These
will ereato big holes in tho surplus,
without any possibility of pouring
anything back into the Treasury
through tho same holes.
But suppose that “Inquirer’s”
fears should be well founded, and
that instead of reducing the Treasu
ry receipts the loner duties should
increase them, that would not be
such an unfortunate thing as he evi
dently considers it. In the first
place, while ruoie money would he
paid into tho Treasury than is even
now unnecessarily paid, a great deal
more tnon.y would remain in the
pockets of tho people than they are
allowed to retain under tho existing
tariff, and thus relieve the country
of tho danger of congestion which
the present situation threatens. Our
correspondent will understand this
when he recalls the fact that now
for every dollar of tariff taxes that
goes into the Treasury five dollars
go into the pockets of private iudi
vate individuals and corporations,
while with duties low enough to
stimulate such an increased impor
tatiou ns to augment the present
customs receipts consumers would
get their goods correspondingly
cheaper, while tho taxes which they
paid cn those goods would go to
the Government instead of into the
safes of subsidized corporations and
“Ousts. 11 And such a result would
warrant another and immediate en
largemeut of the free list for the re
t j lIC {j oU tbe unnecessary surplus,
am ] consequently a further corres
pouJilliJ benefit to the people by
au additional lightening of taxa
tioc.
But Inquirer is very far afield
when ho declares that the foreign
manufacturer pays tho duties on im
ports. No more radical error could
mislead the student of tho tariff
question. The consumer, and the
consumer alone, pays the tarifl tax
