PROTECTION FOR FARMERS.

PROTECTION FOR FARMERS
 It has been the custom of the free traders
 to loudly and emphatically assert that the
 farmers of the West and South are in favor
 of free trade. and that 1t is decidedly for their
 interest to be so. Of course there is no way
 of telling how many free traders there are
 among these farmers, but the indications are
 that they are not as numerous as the free
 trade orators and writers would have us be-
 isve. One of the indications of the state of
 feeling concerning free trade among the
 western farmers is the result in the special
 election which has just been held in Kansas
 to fill the vacancy caused by the death of
 Representative Haskell. The Republican candidate was elected by gain of over five
 thousand in sparsely settled district over
 the result at the preceding contest, and the issue was made on the tariff. The Greenback and Democratic candidate espoused the cause of free trade and the Republican that Of pro- lection, and there was thorough discussion of the issue, with the result that the Kansas farmers declared strongly in favor of protec- tion.
 The assertion that free trade would be splendid thing for the farmers of this coun- try is not borne out by the facts. The history of protection in this country shows that farmers have as much interest as any body in encouraging manufacturing. report from the Agricultural department contains 8 com parison showing how manufactures affect the farming interests. This comparison shows that there is Gin every State, without
 1ol. 0e land in that portion of each State which makes the largest value of the products of manufacturing industry.'' In this State, for instance. the csnsus shows that the value of the manufactured products of three manufacturing counties" was in 1880 over $122, 900, 900. In these counties the average value of farm lands was $71 s4 per acre. In the five other counties, where the total value Of manufactured pro- ducts was only $63. 900, 900, the value of farm lands was $34 68 per acre. In Ken lucky the difference was even greater. In ten counties, where the average value of per county, was five millions and half, the average value of farm lands was $36 AS per acre; while in the other 107 counties where the average of manufactures per county, was about $15O. GOO, the average value of farm lands was only SIP. 14 per acre. In West Virginia two counties turned out $11, ,2O7, ,0OO worth of manufactures, and farm land was worth $48.87 per acre. The total value of manufactures in the ffty-two other counties was only $11, ,659, 900, and farm land in them was worth an average of $12.18 per acre.
 These facts speak fer themselves. It is worth great deal to the farmer to have his market near, and every manufacturing center | makes 6 market for the farmer. The farmer | who votes for free trade votes- against his | own interest, and we believe that most of | them know this. |

A Most Remarkable Case of Suspended
 Animation in lhe West.
 ILeadville (coll Correspondence Boaton Postl
 One of the most extraordinary eases of suspended animation in human being ever heard of is now puzzlipg two leading physi- clans of this city. They have been treating the case for the past two months, but they are as far from efecting cure to-day as they were at the beginning. They have exhausted all the ancient and modern methods of re- suscitation, but they might as well have been working upon 6 mummy or an image. The subject is boy about eight years of age, who resides with his parents in the vicinity of Carbonate Hill. The father is 8 miner 8 strong, robust man, who never suffered day of severe sickness in the thirty-seven years of his life-and the mother is a healthy woman. Both are Germans, and, besides the little patient whose ailrnent is mystifying the physicians, have two other children, boy five years of age and an infant in arms. These two children are healthy and have suf- fered from no other sickness than the ills of childhood.
 ''1t is the most remarkable case of sus- pended animation have ever seen or heard of," said one of the medical gentlemen '.In all my experience in Europe and America never heard of anything like it. Two months age was called to visit boy nearly

It is said that the Empress of Austria has purchased font of type and press in or- der that she may print a collection of her own writings. This is going farther than the Queen of England did, and it is to be hoped that the Empress Of Austria's "writings'' are worth the trouble she takes for them. It is not hard to believe thet they are better than those of the Queen of England.
