There i-au la- no doubt tint tin- Kn rojuMii war will have a blighting el' foi't upon tlio reu'inios of tin' Uniti'd States. Outsido of tlio Postal Sen ice tho custom hoiisi's provide nearly one half of the Treasury's receipts. Willi our foreign commerce interrupted, tarill taxes must dwindle, and immediate provision must be made for funds. High taxes we have always with us, flnil they are busier loday than the ma chine guns of Belgium ami (lermany. To meet the situation, they piopose new and burdensome levies upon tea and coffee and the vexatious use of stamps. Because a disarrangement of trade that probably will be only temporary has "arisen, thoy are eager to fasten upon a peoplo at peace burdens which novel have'been thought of except as meas ures of war. In the nature of things, the existing dilliculties cannot last. Either (Jreat Britain and Prance combined will clear the seas and open up trade, or (lor many will do so. One of tho other of these mighty forces must soon gain the mastery, and in either event a way will be found to restore the ocean channels lo American commerce. The very nee epsities of n continent In arms will givo a wonderful impetus to our ex ports and in due season enrich us with imports greater than ever before. Our revenue shortage is for the mo ment only. It is an inconvenience, but it ought not be made a calamity. The Treasury should be supplied by bond sales, which will take care of them selves. Taxes needlessly imposed at this time will last for years after the shortage now forseen shall have passed away, and they will beget extravn gaiice, speculation and error.

Tho voters gave those engngei in tho liquor Iiiih'hil'ss plenty of tiuii to plan for going into other oecupn tions and the people plenty of time ti adjust themselves to new eoudituuis. If the liquor men are right in theii contention that Prohibition hurts busi i.pss, then the eities of West Virginia should bo about re.idy for a reeeher ship. If these liquor dealers are right the eities of that State should evei now be disastrously quiet. i'2idcntl, tho I'outrary is true. Take the eity of Wheeling, for in stance.

(New York Press.) The closing of a Pennsylvania hosiery factory; within a week because Its liusi' uess has been lost to foreign competi tors emphasizes pointedly the effect of tho new Tariff on cotton knit goods. A liumlre.il employes, chielly girls, havo been thrown out of work. Thoy and the families dependent upon them have no prospect of earning a livelihood un less they aro so fortunate ns to push their way into new occupations in spite of tho ovorcrowiled labor mnrket. The recent failure of n New York manufacturer of cotton knit goods re veals the same crippling of the indus try through tho lowered Tariff. Im ports of hoisery In May, 1!MI, exceeded those of n year ago by f7S,liL'0, or nearly Ilo per cent., ami Imports of oth er cotton knit goods increased by f222, 172, or moro than 71." per cent. Here lie tho seeds of more than ojie failure. Parallel inroads havo been made into other industries. Many imports entered for immediate consumption wero f.'!7, .'lt,8(il, or almost .'l!J per cent, greate) than in HU.'I; and withdrawals from the warehouso for consumption also rose In value. Of these imports foodstuffs part lyor wholly manufactured nniouuted to $i,2:i:i,GU7, or.S4 per cent, more than 1 1. 1D1H, and manufacturers ready for con sumption to .",t71,2:!0, or llfl per cent more than in 1IMI. These statements spell success for the foreign manufac turer and failure for the American. Tho slackening in American mnnufac ture is further indicated by a falling of from the record of n year ago of $i,S20, 101, or almost 21 per cent., in exports ol foodstuffs partly or wholly niuiiufactui ed and of 1,C!l!V18, or 21 per cent., ii exports of manufacturers ready for con sumption. The total exports of domes tic merchandise declined ,f:i;!,.'i0.'t,l)s2, oi 21 per cent., so that an excess of ex ports over imports of $(50,-:1,700 i May, 111 Kl, became an excess of import amounting to t2,170,s!KI in May, 101 1. All of this shifting of trade too place under peace conditions. It is tin fortunate that the Tariff has left the. way open for further demoralisation o our manufacturers now that the threa: of war cripples our customers uliroui ami has iii-ide our competitors douhh eager to dump thoir goods upon out market in return for re.ulv cash. THE COUNTY FAIR SEASON. (Courier-Journal.) The county fairs are in progre tliioughout Kentucky and the list oi fair dates appearing daily in the ('our ier-.lourual shows that the number i lar'o. In some respects this is not a gmn ear for county fairs. The drouth tha l.as prevail ed in many portions of the tato lias interfered .seriously with tin products of farm and garden. Because of this condition some of the fairs ha ueen called oil' and a few association' li.ie suspended operations permanent l Vexertheless the fairs that have been held so far, judging from the newspt per reports, have not been lacking eith i-r in attractions or attendance. Bvery county in the State should os tablish and support a fair, am it khoulu no a real fair ami not a mere median, for the exhibition of freaks ami fakes ami tho exploitation of cati-li-peuu schemes. It is possible in any eouuH in Kentucky to get together a credii able display of livestock, agricultural products and other substantial features of an e.xlubtion of tho kind. The ques tion is merely oiio of raising the re quired capital and devoting the neces sary time and energy to tho enterprise. As a tulo, the fairs that have failed are those which have been permitted to degenerate. Unless a fair Hi a going ami growing institution the public m very likely to lose interest In It and public approval and support are es sential to success. Tho county fair that is well sustain ed is a factor for progress. It gives impetus ami encouragement to human endeavor and it is primarily valuable as an object lesson of the results ol intelligent toil. It can mid should be made a most powerful force for rural betterment and rural prosperity. A METHODIST BISHOP "CANED. Bishop Win. A.
