THE WORLDS FAIR.
Opposition Of The Illinois Board Of ASri-
culture to The Lake-FrOlt Site.

SPRINGFIELD Qll.). July 22,-One OF the
features of the special session of the Him
ois Legislature will be the aggressive part
to be played by the Illinois State Board of
Agriculture. A committee from that board
will present to the General Assembly the
views of the agriculturists on the Worlds
Fair site. 1t has been known all along that
the State Board is bitterly opposed to the
lake front, holding that no matter how that
site may be improved it will be entirely in
adequate to accommodate the agricultural
exhibits such an occasion will call forth.
Secretary Garrard said last night:
We insist and every STATE Board OF Agricult.
ure In tue Union will insist with US, that the
agricultural exhibits must not be embarrassed
In such manner as to impair a successful expo
SitiOn. We do not desire TO dictate 10 The Dlrec-
tors where they shall hold or select the site, but
we have the right to insist that the site shall be
one that will supply every demand for space.
-Four hundred acres would not be iu excess for
agricultural exhibits at the Worlds Fair; two
hundred acres viii be the minimum which will
accommodate the States of this Union. CalifOr-
MIA alone asks for forty acres for Its agri-
cultural, fruit and vintage exhibit, and will
probably not be satisfied Win less than fifteen
or twenty. The State of Illinois will want forty.
The demands OF the State Board are 10 be OBJ
served. Other States Will want five, ten or fif-
teen acres each All told, the States cannot get
along with less than 200 acres, and il is abso-
lutely Impossible 10 give 1t with the lake front
d
size which places the agricultural exhibits a mile
away from the other principal features. In my
opinion, in case the lake front is selected as SITE
the Illinois BOatd OF Agriculture VIII drop the
subject entirely and not make any exhibit. OF
course, however, II the next regular session OF
the Legislature makes an appropriation ana In
stIucts us TO make an exhibit we will carry out
the provisions of Tie law. But this is opinion,
II The lake front Is selected the agricultural
boards OF the country VIII regard the Worlds
Fair In advance as failure and abstain from
any attempt at successful exhibits OF the agri-
cultural products OF the country.

change. The weeks arrivals were $3.50
tons, all from the Coast collleries. A local
circular says:
The arrivals keep pace with the consumption,
although the imports from foreign sources are
merely nominal The better grades for house
uses are in very light supply, hence every vessel
teams form on the day OF arrival, awaiting their
turn for delivery. Retailers being aware OF the
principal source of supply being closed, seem

main firm, the --latest quoted rates show an I'M
provement, notwithstanding wheat charters for
the incoming crop show an advance.
The imports at San Francisco during the
first six months of 1890 were S24,609, 600 in
merchandise and 81, 125, 200 in specie. Dur
ing the first six months of 1889 they were
S27, 145, 300 In merchandise and 81 ,663. 600 in
specie. These specie imports are by water
and do not include the very large imports
of Mexican dollars by rail.
The trade of the port of New York for
the half year just closed was as follows:
Exports of merchandise, S16S, 379, 900; I'M
ports of merchandise. $3.50. 1879, 600; exports
of specie, $4,000, 900; imports of specie,
S7,51S, 600.
Lumber is in good demand and firm, but
lumber freighIs are weaker, due to the
steadily increasing tonnage list bound TO
northern ports seeking such engagements.

TARIFF LEGISLATION.
An Endorsement Of Blaine'S Views on
Reciprocity Measures.

New YORK, July 22.-An Ellsworth (Me.)
special says: Senator Eugene Hale, one of
Blaine's stanchest supporters, who is now
home here, in an interview ON the tariff is
sue said:
II is the duty OF the Republican Senate to
stick 10 the bill until 1t Is completed and passed.
IL Will not necessarily be the Mckinley bill, but
IL Will retain all It's good features. A proposition
which Will be debated and passed upon by the
Senate will be Que to secure a foothold in the
South and Central American nations ana get
their markets for our goods. This does not IN
any way interrupt the working of the protective
system. nor Is 1t Inconsistent with a protective
tariff. Free.iraders are very fond OF declaring
that the statement made by Blaine, and, SO far
as can be judged by his messages, approved by
the President, involved free trade or reciprocity
THIS i has no foundation whatever. pro.

take control OF our markets and drive out our
labor. The situation in Central and South
America Is precisely opposite. They furnish
products which we do not sup ply and which we
need We produce and manufact ure things they
need, and which they cannot produce. Their
market Is largely in the hands OF Great Britain
and france, and the money which we pay for
their products goes to these countries. Instead
OF paying Tor their products In money which
goes TO Europe, we ought to give in exchange
our goods. We ought by treaty or by legislation

Taxing the question OF sugar alone, my i'm
preston is that movement should now be
made with reference to sugar, not involving IL
with the wool question. Blaine is right In say.
Ing that II we give South America, Cuba and
Porto Rico an open market for sugar without
terms being imposed, we shall have no hold on
those countries to induce them to let our prod
ncts enter freely into their ports. believe 1t TO
be fact that preparations tending to negotia-
lions with some OF those counties Which would
have resulted in reciprocity fell to the ground in
the winter, because The representatives of those

free sugar without being asked for anything In

from such policy ought TO be paid for by their

cultural implements manufactured all over the

NATURALIZATION.

The Alien Mill Oiled to Grind With Less
Friction.
A nice point in naturalization matters
has just been decided by Judge Wallace.
The State law r-ovides that an alien must
have resided not only the five years in the
United States, but one year in this State.
The Judge holds differently. He says that
all citizenship laws are enacted by Con-
gress, and cannot, therefore, be restricted,
modified or qualified by any other legisla-
ton. The Federal statutes contain no pro-
vision whatever for years residence in
any particular State. If the fact of five
years residence in the United States can
be established that is enough.
