What the Farmers Demand.

SPRINGFIELD. ILL.,, Nov. 22.-The
Farmers Mutual Benefit association
agreed to resolutions demanding n re-
vision of the patent laws. the aboli-
ton OF the national banking system;
that the circulating medium be con-
flned to gold, silver and copper coins
and United States treasury notes, ia
voring loaning money by the national
government to citizens in sums not ex-
ceeding vi, 900 to any person and prop
erly secured at interest not exceeding
per cent per annum; favoring the
issue and sale at par of United States
bonds Of $40, 500, $50 and 800 bear
ing per cent interest and redeemable
at the option OF the holders and gov
eminent. The resolutions further de-
mand the regulation of corporations by
law favor the election of president, vice
president and United States senators by
popular vote; oppose civil service laws
and fix the tenure in Office of United
States Judges not to exceed nine years.
The election of postmasters and rail-
road and warehouse commissioners by
popular vote is also urged Pensions
TO soldiers and sailors are approved
and the revision of government officials
salaries is recommended as is also the
reduction OF taxation on necessaries
and conveniences, and the regulation
OF immigration and manufacture of
adulterated foods. The resolutions
conclude by making provision for the
establishment of a national organiza-
ton to attend the coming sessions of
the legislatures throughout the coun-
try in the interest of farmers organ
izations and calling upon representa-
tives of the organization to keep aloof
from both parties.

Increased Postal Reuenues.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 24.-.An in
crease of at least 10 per cent in the
postal revenues" said Third Assistant
Postmaster General Hazen, who has
charge of the issue and manufacture of
postage stamps. will be apparent in
my report, which will be submitted TO
the postmaster general in few DAYS.
There has been marked increase of
business at thirty of the principal
offices in the United States, but was
astonished at the decreased revenues
manifested in their accounts received
from the postoffice at Kansas City, Mo,
and Minneapolis and ST. Paul. Hith-
erto these three offices have kept up
well together due in great meas
ure to the maintenance of a real estate
boom in the respective places. Now,
however, there seems to be a collapse
in that line, as is evinced by the fall
ing of in the postal receipts in the
three cities. comparison made be-
tween the north and south and west
shows that these sections are keeping
pretty close together. one of the phe-
nomenal cities in point of receipts being
Rochester N. Y. Probably the fact
that this town is the center of immense
seed interests may account for the in
creased business, and when the figures
are published they will seem almost
marvellous. One city where there has
been noticeable decrease in postal
revenue is New Orleans, which has
been materially affected by the anti
lottery law. Upwards of 81 900 have
been cut off every month since the
passage of the bill by congress, and
the Office has been recently reorgan-
lied and the force reduced by the re-
tirement of nine men. The money
order business too, has fallen off very
perceptibly and the receipts of the
New Orleans postoffice have been cur
tailed at least one-third from what
they were last year by the action takep
against the lottery people"

Tho savage was thunderstruck and
thought, are the white men mad? so he
said: "What you say is absurd; in this
country food is meant to eat and houses
to live in, and while there is enough Of
both nobody lacks them. AS for work,
we build our huts and kill our game, but
it is only in time of plenty that there is

found in tho beet grown in Germany
and Franco, the greatest beet sugar
producing countries in the world. 1t
has been ascertained at the depart
ment of agriculture that these expert
ments are being made at the agricul-

giving satisfactory results. 1t is be-
lieved that should the products of the

COMPARATIVE anatomists tell us
that in an age long past men worked
their ears back and forth like the
horse, or that other animal, the horses
half-brother. And they even go SO
far to prove the theory that they point
out the shrunken remains OF once
powerful ear muscles that were used
for that purpose. 1t is not strictly
necessary to go TO such an extreme to
show the certain connection OF some
men with the animal creation, for
there are those. even now, who can
wag their ears in way that would
excite the envy OF the longe st-ear
mule living.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-Postal tel
egraphy will occupy large portion of
Postmaster General Wanamaker's an
nual report. He will urge it with
earnestness and present it in new
light. The postmaster general is study
ing the question of parcel post SINH
lar to that in use in England and on
the continent At present the postal
services of this country carries pack
ages of only four pounds weight, while
under the international postal treaty
packages are taken from this to other
countries which are eleven pounds in
weight. The postmaster general be-
lieves that we should carry packages
to the weight at least of eleven pounds:
and that in connection with the postal
service there should be parcel postal
service, so that quite all of the express
small packages at present may be car
ried ut fourth-class postal rates. The
express companies will fight this prop
osition bitterly, because it means an
immense curtailment of their business
and the merchants in small cities will
oppose 1T on the ground that it will
give the merchants in large cities an
advantage and that customers through
out the country will order goods from
large merchants. The farmers alli-
ance and labor unions will back up the
proposition for a parcel post and will
also demand that the express COM
panies be placed under the provisions
of the interstate commerce law

That this can never be done with safe

Postal Savings Banks.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.-Postmasto,.
General Wanamaker has much faith in
postal savings banks and he will give
evidence of it in his forthcoming an
nual report. He believes that one of
the secrets OF the causes of there not
being money in circulation lies in the
TACT that in many sections of the conn
try millions of dollars are secreted nm
der carpets, in bed clothing and else
where or buried in the ground by per-
sons who are afraid of the stability of
the banking institutions or who. hay
ing nut few dollars, are timid about
opening accounts of deposit with
banks. Mr.. Wanamakcr saws he will
not advocate system of postal saw
lngs banks which will be in the way of
private institutions, but on the contra
ny they will be help TO bankers. He
lhlnks the establishment of postal saw
lngs banks will prove great BLESSING
10 the poor people who have never
learned the fact that there is more in
saving than in making money ana the
latter generally requires the ability.
ne believes that it will educate people
INTO the wisdom of saving by means of
banks and especially get them into the
habit OF making deposits. The banks
are TO established if Mr.. Wanamaker's
recommendations are carried ont nj
post Offices for small places and not
where they will compete with any
character of savings institution like
Guiding loan associations. The local
