OVER THE SEA.
AND ENGLAND UNITING TO
SECURE AFRICAN TERRITORY,

Stanley Quoted as Saying that England's
Apathy Makes Him Very Weary-Emin
Pasha Has Information Which Would
Prove Sensational-Free Trade Losing
Ground.
During the debates on the East Africa
credits in the reichstag, Baron Won Mar.
schall explained that the mission Of Emin
Pasha in Africa on the part Of the Ger
mans would be confined to establishing
friendly relations with those tribes in the
interior who are within the German sphere
of interest, and to estimate the cost of
eventually forming some fortified stations
in the interior. In the negotiations with
England, regarding the boundaries of their
respective possessions. in Africa, the PEE
dominating wish of Germany was to
go hand in hand with England and to
cultivate the common interests of
both countries. The object was not to ac-
quire as much territory as possible, but to
keep together what was naturally con-
nected by o course of waterways, as a
means Of communication. On this point
Germany was prepared to come to an I'M
Outstanding with England. Gen. Won Ca
priv stated that though he had originally
warmly approved the colonial policy OF the
empire, he agreed with Prince Bismarck
that such a policy could only be main
tanned with the support Of the nation. AS
matters now stand the government cannot
retreat from its position in regard to colo
NAL affairs without the loss of honor and
money.

Mr.. Stanley, in an interview regarding

DARK OKLAHOMA.

Persons inclined to ''pish" at the
idea OF the negroes getting possession
OF Oklahoma as their own, will change
that tune before the year is out. The
society of the "First Grand Brother
hood" is already reality of formid-
able proportions and is growing, with
strong men and money behind it. Be-
fore the year is out they will have over
100, 600 negroes in Oklahoma against
10000 whites. They keep out of the
towns, which are settled by the
whites, who will be allowed to build
them up, so the negroes say, but in
due time they will be asked to move.
Already the negroes have secured a
section of land which is set apart for
a university, and Edwin p. McCabe is
reported as stating that william
Waldorf Aston has promised to endOw
it with 100000 as soon as the build
ings are up, and present United
States Senator will give $50, 900 toward
the buildings as soon as the territorial
government is established, which will
probably be within two weeks, the
President having urged Congress to
act speedily. Donations will be Sc
cured to put up buildings within the
year valued at 800, 900, and there will
be established the greatest negro uni

SUBSIDIES FOR FARMERS

Congressman Fthan, of Illinois,
who was placed on the merchant
marine committee Of the house against
| his WILL the business Of that COM
mittee being TO devise a system of
subsidies or bounties for building up
our merchant marine, method Of
promoting prosperity to which he is
utterly opposed, believing that If the
government is to go into this sort of
protection methods it would better
start with agriculture, which is now
languishing all over the West. He
has accordingly prepared resolution,
which will be pretty sure to attract
attention and which he will offer in
the house to-day if opportunity is
given him. Tie speaker has promised
him recognition for that purpose. The
resolution is as follows:
WHEREAS, The report Of the state
board Of agriculture Of the state of
Illinois for the year Of 1889 shows that
the total cost Of production of the
corn crop for the year 1889 in the state
of Illinois was sos, 279, SS2, and the
total value of the same was $5S, 1897 ,049,
making total loss on said corn crop
TO the farmers of Illinois of 50, 935, 1913;
and,
WHEREAS, Corn is now being con-
sumed in several states for fuel for
want of a remunerative market; and,
WHEREAS, Several bills have been
introduced in this congress to pay a
subsidy of 30 cents per registered ton
for every 1000 miles sailed by an
American vessel between any port of
the United States and any foreign
port, and between foreign ports, and
the same rate for fractions of less than
900 miles: and,
WHEREAS, Without the products of
the American farm subsidized ships
would be useless to American com
merce: therefore, be it
ResOlred, That the committee on
merchant marine and fisheries be and
they are hereby instructed to investi-
gate the facts set forth in this reSO-
luton and report to the house the adj
visibility of adding an amendment to
any bill that may be favOrably re-
ported to the house giving subsidies
to ships, to pay each farmer a reason
able subsidy or bounty for each buShel
Of corn produced, to the end that the
further production of corn may be
profitably engaged in by the farmer
and the subsidized ships may have
something to carry.

TANNER.

1t is some time since we have had
occasion TO refer TO the irrcpressiblc
Corporal Tanner. Backed by General
Alger, he has been enabled TO open as
fine an Office as there is in Washing
ton, in which pension and all other
kinds OF soldier claims are attended To
with promptness and dispatch" and
the business has already assumed such
proportions that the Corporal is
obliged to employ fifteen clerks, and,
what is better, is kept So closely tohis
business that he can seldom find even
a spare moment or two TO shoot OF
his dreadful mouth" Meantime the
question is often asked, as the prOtCgc
of General Alger, how does Tanner
stand with the administration? Is he
at peace with Harrison or at swords
point? On this head a Washington
correspondent, who waylaid him a
few days ago as he was stepping of a
train, on his return from Lancaster,
Pa, got him to open his mouth some
what in the old style. MOI said he.
Il have not suffered any in financial
point at least, by getting the cold
shoulder OF the administration. |
Just put ten more clerks to work, and
we have more than we can dO-must
put on still more clerks in a few days.
Last night, as | was going from my
hotel to the train at Lancaster, |
heard a good deal of cheering, and in
curing the cause learned that they
had had an election that day and that
the Democrats had carried the city by
300 majority, something that had not
happened for years, the majority al
ways being largely the other way. AS
| came through Harrisburg and Get
tysburg it was the same story: How
will it 90 in Indiana this fall? Why,
it will go about %, 900 majority for you
Democrats. The old soldiers will not
soon forget the campaign lies told
them during the fall Of 1888. No; |
will not go to Indiana to talk to the
old boys this fall, although | meant
and believed every word / told them
in 'SS, and they can be no more disap-
pointed than / am. But our time
will come. | did what l could during
the short time ! was commissioner,
but they cut me short"
The Corporal, in conclusion, thought
he should soon be able to ride in his
own carriage, with some who did their
best to kick him out of town, and
this will no doubt prove true If the
dependent pension bill passes, for this
would add 100000 claims, and the
Corporal, who has the confidence of
the old veterans, would doubtless get
the larger part Of their business.
