is region of small farms, the average
being less than seventy acres. Some of
them may be owned by new settlers or
those so accustomed to good crops that
they made no provision for failure. and
are now somewhat short of supplies.
The state could better afford to furnish
them relief than to have appeals go
abroad, as the exaggerations doimmense
damage to the country without distinc-
ton of locality. Emigrants are not
likely to come to a state reported on
the verge of famine. There should be,
now that the state machine is inaugu-
rated, some channels of relief for all
such cases, and not allow them to be
paraded abroad, to the detriment Of the
entire state.

day in which he likened the negro to
Samson, and told the members of his
race to secure homes in the South and
West and prepare to stay in them. even

With Winchester rifles. The negro was
learning the lesson of organization from
The socialist and the ITiShman, and
twenty years from now would not be

he concluded, ''has been building for
the whites long enough. 1t is time to
build for himself. He cannot be eXter-
minated or inundated. He is the
blood and bones of the nation, and if
undisturbed will do no harm, but if

negroes to strike back when they were
assaulted. or their wives and daughters
wronged and inSulted. The civil rights
bill, be said, had always proved fail

from either party was promises at cleo

that the idea of hiring men to bring IN
dear goods will not work. The influence
of the conference is wanted to enable
steamship companies to obtain from
congress subsidies for opening lines to
the South American countries. This is
the only way for Mr.. BLAINE and the
prOtectiOnists to effect anything with
out endangering their Chinese wall. To
eoncede freer commercial relations with
South America would be an admission
that the Democrats are right in urging
a general tariff reduction. This subsidy
would be paying people to bring goods
in the face of tariff designed to keep
them out. No very valuable extension
OF commerce could be had in this way.

NEW NEWSPAPER BUILDINGS.

Western enterprise is infectious. The
East is catching it. In fact, it has al
ready spread from ST. Paul to New
York. Inspired by the GLOBES ex-
ample in building the first decent news
paper Office in the country. two of New
YOrk's greatest newspapers, the Times
and the World, have been encouraged
to build mansions for themselves worthy
OF the inmates. The Times has just oc-
cupied the magnificent new quarters
which 1t literally built over its own
head, while the World has Just laid
with imposing ceremonies the corner
stone of an edifice that is to be the pride
of the metropolis. Those superb pict-
ureS of the GLOBE building which hang
in the editorial rooms Of the Times and
the World doubtless suggested to their
prOprietOrS the necessity for following
the spirit of Western enterprise. We
are also gratified that our missionary
labOrs in newspaper building have
borne fruit right here at home. Our
neighbor, the Pioneer Press, is hanging
window curtains and hopping the floors
of its splendid new building prepara-
tory TO moving in. Thus the good work
goes, and we hope to see the day when
every newspaper in the land viii be as
comfortably housed as ourselves.
