MANY Won't SEE IT THAT WAY.-An
exchange says: ''The publisher of news
paper has one thing to sell and one thing
to rent. He has the newspaper to sell, and
the space in the columns to rent. Can any
one inform Us why be should be expected
to give away either one or the other? He
can do it if he chooses, ard he does, as a
matter Of practical fact, furnish great
deal of space rent free But it does not
follow that he ought to be expected to do
it. 1t ought to be recognized as contribu-
ton exactly as would the giving away of
sugar or coffee by the groceryman. But,
strange to say, it is not looked upon in that
light at all, yet everybody knows that the
existence Of newspaper depends as much
on the lent of its space AID the sale of the
paper rs the mel chaai's success depends OLE
selling his goods irstead Of giving them

When the extreme taxes were placed on
the necessaries of life-on clothing, fuel,
and tools-they were excused by men like
Mr.. Morrill,, chairman of the Senate Fin
ance Committee, and other responsible
Spokesman of the Republican party, only
on the plea of the dire necessities of war;
and the most explicit pledges were given
that when the stress CT conflict had passed
they would be repealed straightway.
But instead of repeating the war taxes
the Republicans proceed to increase them,
not for war but for the pampering of
monopoly. Richmond Times.

Second. The importance of scientific ed
ucation to the farmer-in the relations Of
chemistry and geology to the soil, atmos
phere and the vegetable kingdom-I com
mend to your earnest attention. BY the
aid of chemical analysis ascertain what the
plant cats, and from what sources its food
must be derived. With these two factors
in the problem ascertained, it's solution is
simple.
But urge the Importance of education
upon you, young gentlemen, for your
political protection and salvation.
Flocking, each by himself. the farmer is
the easy prey Of the political schemer. With
every class Of the community, lawyers,
doctors, merchants and mechanics, organi-
zed for their self-protection, the farmer
alone is unable to combine to resist the as
saults upon his interests. AS the conserva-
tive force in the State, he is rooted to the
soil around and about which are all his
cliued, can run away with his land 1t is
his life. and with it and on it he must re-
main until death.
You have beard of late years something
said of "Cout-house Clicks" What does
it mean ? If anything, that political power
has been transferred from the country to
the Courthouse and why? Because edu-
cation among our farmers has been neglect
ed. But show me a community where in-
telligence and the higher education prevail
among the yeomanry of a country, and it
will not be difficult to point you to people
whose public sentiment is dictated and con-
trolled, not by few in the towns, but by
the voice of the whole people.
How was it 80 years ago? Go with me
a moment to see that old Virginia farmer

Should this hope prove erroneous
both parties recognize 1t to be their
duty to inform Alexander that an
attack upon one would be regarded
as an attack upon both. The publ
cation of the treaty IS considered as
warning TO Russia and those who
have been trying to divide Germany
and Austria. 1t is understood that
Italy in 1887 accepted all the stjpu-
lations of the treaty, both in an active

auHrare Ia ENGLAND.

Prior to 1882 the suffrage in Eng
land was very limited. In that year
it was much extended under the
ministry of Lord Grey. Lord Grey's
famous reform bill admitted the
s'middle class" to suffrage, but left
the working class" out. In 1867 IN
der Lord Derby, q second enlarge
ment of the sugrage was enacted,
enfranchised all male hou5eholders
in boroughs who paid poor rates and
all dodgers paying not less than &lO
q year rent; aud in COUNTIES all per-
sons of property of the clear annual
rent of f5 and all oceupiers OF lands
and tenements paying fl2 a year.
In Scotland the conditions were
made very nearly the same. In Ire
land this bill left the county fran-
ehise at f12 and reduced the borough
franchise from Is to G4.
Voting by ballot was enacted un-
der Gladstone in 1872 In 1885
Gladstone passed another reform
bill which threw open the franchise
TO the working class in the boroughs
and the agricultural class in the
counties and enlarge the suffrage by
at least 100000 votes. There are
Sstill some classes that cannot vote in
England. but the property or rent
paying requirement is SO small that
the agricultural laborers or working
people generally now have the cleo
tive franchise.

The reasons given for the removal
OF Fort Candy are thus explained:
Col Perry says Fort Candy is now
four miles distant from the Colum
bia river, owing TO the changing of
the current, and it is impossible to
defend the rivers from the present
site of the fort. 1t Is OF difficult ac-
cess and costs $4,000 annually to
maintain communication with Astor

pliss are the highest on the Pacific,
