THE TARIFF. QUHSTT4IH OHCE-ji
As published in our dispatches from
Washington Saturday morning, the
treasury department has finally - ren
dered a decision in the matter of bro
ken rice in answer to the argument
made before it seme days ago by re
presentatives of the brewing and rice
growing interests, which decision
modifies the present rulings on this
point.
- The questioQ of tike duty on rice
has been gone 'ever so often of late
that it is scarcely necessary to giv it
again. - .-
The planters, , importers and brews
ers were all interested in this ques
tion, and argued the case before the,
treasury -officials.
The planers insisted that the -so
called broken rice was rice or tssimis
lated to rice, and Should pay the full
duty.
The brewers were desirous of iihv
porting the 'broken or granulated
rice under a 'lower rate of 4Uity fori
" As they were etrong and inSuenMI
earnest efforts wore made to arrange
a compromise'between them and the
planters.
The -bcewere didjnot want to use or
sell the rice; as food, but as mash for
their 'beer; the planters, on their
part, fa ad no desire to interfere with
the business'of the brewers, desiring
only to prevent rice being imported
in opposition to that they produced
without paying the proper duty, by
giving the cereal another, name and
calling it "broken."
ELECTIONS TO-DAY. .
Political elections take place today
in New York, , Virginia, .Iowa, and
several other States, but '
Only in the two first named'New
York and Virginia, will the result be
regarded with significance.
Y In Virginia, if the election results
in the triumph of : the Democratic
State ticket, and the control of the
Legislature,
It will free that State from' the un
holy, co-alition which resulted in
W. C. Cameron in the gubernatorial
caair, ana mlly . Manone in tne Un

the representatives of the opposing
interests, and efforts were made to
arrange a compromise, but the terms
could not beagreed upon.
The difiSoulty was to fix a standard
of "broken or granulated" rice, pay
ing the lower duty.
The Ranters wanted the standard
made what is known as No. 3 in the
New Orleans market; ; the brewers
wanted to accept the cargo on the
Elba, about which the case arose.
So after ail the rice growers, who
are generally clamorous "free trad
era" on everything else but rice and
sugar, wanted more protection" on
rice. J
They want free iron, free boots,
shoes and hats, but
They want protected rice.
Even the News and Courier, the
champion free trade 'organ of the
South Atlantic States, wants protect
ed rice.
We remember the fable in the
spelling book, where the farmer call
ed upon a lawyer to inform him that
an ox had been gored.
We remember, too, that the lawyer
changed his opinion of the law mate
rially after he learned whose ox had
suffered.

charge; and he was released. When
Lazier got out of the jail doors he was
met by Annie JL. Mellen, or Mrs. A.
F. Lazier, the prisoner's former wife,
who had been divorced from him in
Virginia. With her was Lazier's lifcs

was an affecting one. The former J
wife had seen in the newspaper dis
patches of her former husband's
troubles, and had as soon as possible
come to his assistance. After some
conversatioq the past acts were for
given, a marriage license was obtain
ed, and the long-estranged couple
were reunited.
