Suppose you could got from Prov
incetown to San Francisco by rail for
$lO, to Chicago for $lO, to Omaha for
$10? A letter eoxts no more whether
it is bound for one place or the other.
What it may lose on the long haul it
makes up on the short. Why cannot
transportation companies do the same?
Why not buy railway tickets as you
do postage stamps? Does all this seem
absurd? 'Jet a European country has
adopted a similar plan, and it is spread
ing throughout continental Europe.
The change to which I refer is a
novel system of railway charges which
is in operation in Hungary. The experi
ment, though radical, has apparently
lx en successful. Passenger rates on a
majority of the Hungarian roada are
no longer based upon the cost of serv
ice, or upon what the traffic will bear,
or oven upon the mileage. The rate*
arc regulated according to the “sona
system.” This system has been advo
cated by economists in Austria and
Germany for some years, but none of
the railroad companies was inclined to
take it up. The state railroads pf Hun
gary, however, hud been doing badly
under the old system; the earnings
fell from $1,300a mile in 188?to$l,0u0
in 1888, and the government felt that
matters could not be worse than they
wore.
The zone system of charges is based
upon the theory that there are two
classes of passenger traffic which can
bo increased in volume—the passen
gers traveling a very short distance
and those going a very long distance.
The former are generally provided for
on railroads by commutation rates;
the latter have uot received atteultai
heretofore. A further point advanced
by the advocates of the zone system is
tliut where the cars are not occupied
to their full capacity an iucreaaa of
traffic necessitates only an infinitesi
mal increase of expenses. The advo*
cates of the system, therefore, pro
posed three zones- a short one, a long
oue and a medium one. The Hon
garian imilrouda extended the idea
somewhat by imuiug two classes of
tickets, those for zones and those for
short distances. In the latter clam
were two tickets, one carrying tha
holder to the next station, and sold for
five cents, seven and a half eenta and
fifteen cents for third, second and first
class, and another carrying the holder
to the second station for seven and a
half, eleven and twenty cents for the
three classes, respectively.
These tickets are good between any
two contiguous stations without
to the actual distance, and are sola in
bulk at 6 and 10 per c*ent. discount.
The zones are fourteen in number, the
circles being drawn about ten miles
apart. The fourteenth zone includes
all distances of 140 miles and over.
The rate tor the first sons is vary low
—less than seven tenths of s cent s
mile for the lowest class, and on* and
six-tenths cents for first elsss express
—and Increases more than in propor
tion to the distance through the dif
ferent zones until the rate el the four
teenth ranges from one cent to two
and oue-hulf cents ]>er mile for the 140
miles. Beyond this the ratß again de
creases, owing to the fact that any ad
ditional distance is uot charged for.
Thus u trip of several hundred miles
may be made for the same prioe as one
of 140.
This innovation went into effect
Aug. 1, 1889, and was introduced on
the state lines—about one half of the
total mileage of the country. Two
private companies have aince adopted
the zone system. During the first
month of the new taritf the number
of passengers carried on the state
lines was increased half a million and
the passenger receipts were increased
about SIOO,OOO. -
From the report of the Austro Hun
garian minister of commerce it ap
Jiears that the passenger receipts of
the Hungarian railways for 188$ were
(18,153,105 fiorius, an increase of nearly
a million of florins over those of 1881
—this in the face of s reduction of
rates equal to more than 90 per cent.
The new lysteui was in affect during
only five months of 1880. This extra
ordinary reduction and extraordinary
increase have excited the amazement
of the rail way world. Several foreign
railways have sent representatives to
Hungary to examine into the results
of the change and report on them

Senator VmTi Vlni.
Senator Vest sums up the tenners 1
troubles thus: Overproduction, scarcity
of the circulating medium, combinations
between speculators In grain options and
tariff taxation. While the protection
ists say that a prime solution is the ffi
versiiicetion of industries by fostering
manufactures, he says: "One cause be
yond question of the present conditions is
the fact that we have abnormally and un
naturally stimulated manufactures at
the exjiense of agriculture and com
merce.”
But he has very general sympathy in
the following: Another cause of the un
fortunate aspect of the agricultural
question is the insufficient quantity of
money now ip circulation. Eux uumr
y&nrx me money power has controlled
tho finances with the dominant idea
always active of making tho circulating
medium smaller In order to increase its
purchasing jiower and thereby adding to
incomes. Silver, which has been de
gntdisi by the same influences, should lie
fully remonetized and placed upon the
same basis with gold ss s money metal.
If this is done it will go fur towards re
lieving the fanner from his present diffi
culties.
With other misfortunes, agriculture
has bean the victim of that most un
worthy mass of speculators—the gam
blers in grain options—whose business
directly preys upon the farmer. An ex
ample of their disastrous work was aeon
tn 1884, when the entire wheat crop of
the United States amounted to 360,000,-
080 bushels, and the limited supply in
dneed many ]x>raoiui to enter the market
with the expectation that the prioe of
wheat would certainly go up. In order
to secure the margins a combination was
made at Chicago, which decreased the
price from ninety-six cents to sixty-five
cents per bushel in a few days, and the
result was a loss of many millions, uot
only to speculators, for whom there can
be little commiseration, but to the fann
er* who raised the wheat.
Th« Ratio of Gold to Mllvor.
We have two distinct bases for our
currency, of different intriusic value.
The gold dollar and the silver dollar are
declared by statute to t>e equally the
unit of value, and to lie equally valuable;
yet everybody knows that this is a fic
tion. Moreover, all experience shows
that there cannot be, for any consider
able length of time, a constant ratio be
tween the exchangeable values of gold
and silver. The statutory ratio is 1 to 10;
that is to say, the law fixes the weight of
a silver dollar at 16 times thut of a gold
dollar. The real ratio uf their values in
the world's commerce is about 1 to ill) at
tins time, ami may be, five years hence,
t to 80, for aught we know, or 1 to 12.
it> ancient Egypt the ruler fixed it at 1
16 24; throughout the east in the Fifth
century H varied from 1 to 6 to 1 to 8;
Herodotus states it as 1 to 18; in tho time
of Plato and Xenophon, iu Greece, it was
1 to 10; this was about the ratio in'
Europe in the Hixteonth century, though
it w«e at times Itollor Ito 12. In the
Eighteenth century it became abort 1 to
14, aiui in tire earlier part of tha present
oeutury it stood 1 to 16 or 1 to IS*.
These facta show the absolute ten possi
bility of fixing by law a ratio which
ilutll correspond continuously to tliat
fixed by the law of supply and demand.

NEW JERSEY FARMERS.
Point* C'ull4-*i from Thtlr Ur< rut Pi otcut
In tho Hiiapo of a >I« morlul.
The cry of difctnss is so great in New
Jersey that Governor Abliett suggested
last January a joint committee of the
legislature and some well informed agri
culturists. The state board of agricul
ture selected a committee, and the legis
lature appointed another. These had
several meetings with the governor.
Questions were sent out and many an
swers returned. The committee sent a
mernitrial to congress. They said:
Among the causes leading to the de
pression of farming are:
Demonetization of silver not enough
money for tlie business needs of the
country Jn circulation among the, people.
Greater favors given for booming biisi
ness than are extended to the producing
classes.
Subsidizing the great railroad corpora
tions with grants of public lands, which
lands are offered ip foreign countries at
low prices, anil the unwarranted induce
ments thrown out to foreign immigrants
to occupy and homestead said lands,
causing an overproduction of agricul
tural cropa This, with tho low freight
rates to the seaboard granted by the
trunk line roads, has reduced our eastern
farming to "a well nigh profitless con
dition, ulthough we have the markets at
our door.
No American vessels to transport our
products to other countries.
Immense shipments of western lieef to
our market by western beef and cattle
kings. The failure of the interstate com
merce law to afford relief to our farm
ers. The complaint is nearly unanimous
that the railroads charge oil the product
of this state altogether out of proportion
to charges on the same articles from hun
dreds, and even a thousand miles, distant
to the same markets. This of count
puts all articles thus discriminated
against in this stute nearly, if not quite,
beyond profitable production.
Gambling in the necessaries of life
trusts and bank lnonopoly, receive theii
reprobation. They do not wish govern
ment money spent to irrigate desert
lands when there is so much good land
unused in the east, and such a tendency
exists to give away the public domain tc
corporations and foreign syndicates.
This has gone so far that “the children
and grandchildren of tho men and wo
men who gave their lives and property
during the war to save the country arc.
or soon will lie, deprived of any share in
that domain at government prices. We
usk that congress tom their attention foi
a while to tho east anil aid in developing
and filling up this section of our common
country, and when this will hold no
more, our children—the overflow from
America instead of from Europe—will
have some virgin land left to homestead
and settle upon.”
I>ulry Farming; In Kantem StulcM.
Nothing can show more clearly the
situation of the dairy fanus of the ext
ern states than the following. Mr.
[lodge, of the United States department
of agriculture, in his report for 1880
says: “Farm lands in New York have
depreciated 113 per cent, in value in ten
years—Bo per cent, of the farms in the
state are m<>rtgaged, averaging 00J per
cent, of their estimated valuation.” This
was the situation in New York, the
greatest dairy state of the Union. What
is it now? A correspondent of The Iron
Ago of April 10, 1890, writes from Sara
toga as follows:
“Sales of farming lands under fore
closures are numerous in Central New
York. The number of these sales this
year is unprecedented. Fanners are
leaving their fanns, and more are giv
iug up the life altogether than are set
tling on new ones. There is not only no
money any longer in the business—there
does not seem to lie even a living.
Many farmers in this section do not in
tend to plant this y ear. They run behind
tho best way they cun manage it. A
farmer with his place free and clear is
more than likely after paying his farm
luuids to Ik) in debt after harvest. Many
foreclosure sides of farming lands will
take place before the year is out.”
What is true of New York is true of
all the other eastern dairy states.

Tho last legislature granted the Far

purchases instead of having to deal on
time The Farmers’ Alliance has made
a large deal. They have invested in a
large tract of phosphate lands In Flor

exponents of political probabilities with
out encountering a leading article, the
burden of which is the Farmers’ Alliance.

England loans Irish farmers $50,000,-

CONCERNING HOBBIES.
Good llitkulta froru (he* Ottfar Wilde Furor,
and lbv4*ii from tho Dude.
The natural tendency to run after
fads is a constant source of ridicule,
and if it were not for the constant in
fluence of such ridicule society would
be kept in a state of absurd extremes
by the freaks of fashion. As it is,
these fads often subserve useful ends
and on the whole do good. They ac
centuate ideas, and by their very exag
geration are educational in effect
A few years ago Oscar Wilde came
among us with his Little Lord Fauut
leroy hair and knee breeches. His
dress was grotesque, his manner
open to criticism in many ways, and
intellectually he was little better than
a pretender. The furor over him was
one of the most absurd fads that ever
swept the public from moorings of
common sense. But even that fad had
its uses. The fellow provided himself
with a small quantity of Buskin’s
ideas of art, more especially in their
application to household adornment.
A great many people with more money
than culture listened to his sugges
tions, or, more likely still, received
them through what might be called
atmospheric pressure. The assult was
wholesome. Some American crudities
were eliminated. A little more atten
tion is now paid to harmouy in color
and the other rudimentary principles
of decorative art. This country is no
doubt better for that visitation, even
though it did serve to expose our peo
ple to ridicule.
There is no end of fun made of the
dude. lie is u preposterous specimen
of humuuity, but he is less harmful
than the old fashioned prodigal son.
Better that his father's surplus money
should be squandered on clothes than
on whisky, and the general influence
is far less harmful. The average young
American is not iu much danger of
being too genteel. On the contrary,
he can stand a good deal more of it
and still not have his manliness im
paired.
Tho dude is not ouly an improve
ment on the prodigal son, but from
him goes out a general influence that
makes for refinement off manners. He
is an exaggeration, and when toned
down to reason is a gentleman. The
influence that goes out from dissipa
tion iu high life is altogether had and
pernicious.
In the constant shifting of the sands
of fashion the greguriousness of hu
man nature seeks for itself new chan
nels from time to time, and it is no lit
tle comfort to know that tho foibles of
fashion have their bright side, their
redeeming qualities. Much as could
be said with fairness ugainst'the folly
of fads, they are not without their
defensible qualities.—Chicago Inter
Ocean.
A Hi i d Caught by a Claui.
Harvey Cook, of Saratoga Lake, tells'
the following story:
“I have lived on these waters, so to
speak, for fifty-four years, but I never
before saw anything like wind I saw a
few days ago. I was moving along
the shore of the iuke when 1 saw u
sand snipe, or ‘tip up.’ as the boys call
them, standing at the wuter's edge,
and struggling as if its feet were in a
trap.
“Soon the bird arose a little way iu
tho air and flew us fur as the road,
where it fell and fluttered os though
calling on me, os on un old friend, for
help.
“When I reached the spot I saw that
oue of tho bird's feet was clasped by a
large fresh water clam, but before 1
could render aid the bird again with a
great effort arose into the air and made
a few wild circles, unfortunately over
the lake, but the clam held on, and in
a minute more both were iu the water.
“After a brief, fluttering resistance
tho poor sand snipe succumbed to the
weight of the clinging clam and was
drowned.”—Harrisburg Telegraph.

Some day the "bttod shirt.” with it*

white silk not take its place? Or, in
deed, why should all colors he left to
the feinulc sex? Between the gaudy
and the tasteful there is a great differ

ideas a little too far. He had sense at
the bottom of them. We will coiue to
