Rid of Emin Pasha.


Rid of Emtn Pasha.
LONDON, April 1.-THE real trouble
with Emin is that those who are so
anxious to get him safely back to Afri-
can wilds have encountered unexpected
difficulties. Since he was not COM
PLEASANT enough to die when he could
have done so most conveniently TO many
concerned, the grand object with one
clique has been to stop his mouth from
speaking and his pen from telling awlS-
ward tales.
From present indications he has raised
his price and will not depart at any
thing like the sum agreed upon some
months since. He would be more or less
than human if he failed to contrast the
honors showered upon Stanley and the
golden harvest which awaits the Ameri-
can explorer in the greatest cities, the
tributes from learning and beauty, and
the applause of nations that he can find
no time to visit with his own lot.
Snubbed and held in check as he has
been, and fighting to avoid being hus-
tied OIL to the wilderness whence he has
Just emerged, and feels confident he will
never be permitted to emerge again,
small blame will attach to him, every
one, will say, if he has struck for at
least taste Of the good things of this
life

TRENTON, N. J., April ff.--The Joint,
committee of members Of the state
board of agriculture and both houses of
the legislature, to remedy present agri-
cultural depression in New Jersey, have
agreed on a memorial to congress, set
ting forth the most prominent griev-
ances that require National legislation
as remedy. The memorial insists on
the demonetization of silver as one of
the causes of depression. Ii also in
weighs against the opening up of further
public lands to be given away TO foreign
syndicates and immigrants, while there
are still plenty of farms in the east to he
cultivated. The memorial opposes irri-
cation by the government for the pur-
pose of helping western farms, and asks
congress to turn its attention for awhile
to farms in the east Trusts are con-
demned, as are the concerns which con-
troll the western beef and similar in
dustries The evils of adulterated food
and its dangerous competition with
honest farm products is set forth. Dis
elimination in favor of the western and
southern farmer in the matter of freight
rates is also referred to.

Nine Moscow students have written
long letter to The London Daily Tele-
graph, protesting against the condemna-
ton of their movements by that paper.
The writers assert that the government
prescribes examinations which present
difficulties impossible for the students TO
overcome, the object being to prevent
them from securing degrees.
They further declare that with the
same intention the students are allowed
the greatest freedom, the police of the
university towns conniving at gambling
dissipation and other immoral practices
among them The agitation, it is fur
ther stated, is further directed towards
securing justice for the Jews, who are
excluded from the universities. The let
ter asks The Telegraph to plead the cause
of the students when they are in Siberia,

Tho South Penn.

Tho sale Of the South Penn railroad
makes it reasonable to suppose that
somebody has some use for 1t. The &C.
cepted theory is that it was bought for
the Philadelphia ( Reading, and will be
completed to Pittsburgh or to u point
near that city, where it will connect with
a road controlled by Andrew Carnegie.
Since the completion Of the South
Penn is something which the Pennsyl-
vania has set it's mind on preventing,
and since many law suits arc pending
against tho South Penn, it will probably
DO some time before trims over the new
ROAD will be running into Pittsburgh.
Once upon atime Wheeling was led to
expect some benefits from tho South
Penn, but fortunately Wheeling did not
tie up her talents in napkin and wait
for the South Penn to come along.
