Free-trade attorneys, British and
American, persistently seek the support
of farmers By holding out the promise
of enlarged foreign markets for the pro-
ducts OF the farm as the result Of en-
grating the Cobden policy into our Ma
tional legislation.
The hollowness Of such promise be-
comes apparent when it : remembered
that not only is the quantity of farm
products which foreigners will consume
limited, but tina: the privilege of sup
plying this is contested by other far
mers "ho are in position to crowd PR
ces below the cost of production in this
country. Take the case Of wheat, which
is the chief article Of exDort from grain
raising farms. Last year the wheat
shipped abroad as grain and flour
amounted to ABOUT $1,000. 900 bushels.
OF this nearly tour-fifths went TO West
ern Europe-oyer 55,2S9,5S4 bushels
Of it to Great Britain, which was less
than the average sold there for the pc ST
eighteen years Such falling off in the
quantity sold to our British customers
is not the result of our inability to sup
ply their needs, but of the fact that
wheat raisers from other countries were
on hand as competitors ready to sell for
less price than American wheat rails
ers could afford to take for their grain.
While the quantity of American wheat
sold to Great Britain fell oft from over
ninety million bushels in 1887, to fifty
five and quarter million bushels in 1889
the quantity supplied by Russiaincreased
nearly fourfold in the same time-that
is to say, from i0,354.G0 bushels in
1887. TO 39.S00,S72 bushels in 1890.
Not because the United States had not
the wheat to sell. but because wheat
could be bought cheaper from Russia
than America. Consumers were too hard
pressed by poverty to give heed to theo-
ries Of reciprocity in commerce. They
bought their bread of those who sold
cheapest, and as the Russian serf works
for less money than has to be paid the
American farm laborer, not only have
prices been hammered down, but Rus
sian wheat-supplemented BY more than
sixteen million bushels from India in
lSs9-has been crowding the American
product from the markets Of Western
Europe.
This is the unequal contest to which
free-tade attorneys urge the American
farmer In pursuit Of the phantom of
a foreign market in which he can sell
only at a loss, they ask him to cripple
the resources of that home market which
now consumes nine tenths OF all farm
products. and which will. if adequately
protected against underpaid foreign la
Dor, in the near future supply American
for all that the Ameri-
can farmer has TO sell

prison at Auburn, Wednesday morning
Of last week. This il the first execution
BY electricity aud although undoubted-
~ painless there was a question among
attending physicians whether death was
instantaneous or lie was not extinct till
the current was turned on the second
time. There is no doubt but that a
certain amount Of electricity will kill
instantly. and this point determined
will make it the most humane capital
punishment. The breaking rope and
slipping moose too often lends the hor-
rible TO hanging, and more certain
method will be relief.

The friends of the Atlanta (Ga.) Uni
versity have made an appeal to the
public for aid to enable the institution
to continue it's work during the coming
year. Because of the presence of few
white pupils in the college, children of
instructors, the State of Georgia has
withdrawn it's annual appropriation of
$4,000, the trustees having nobly re-.
fused to violate agreements made in the
foundation of the university by recog-
nizing any color line in the admission of
students. AS it has no endowment and
must depend almost wholly on volun-
tary contributions the loss of this appro-
priation seriously cripples it. 1t has
over 600 students and is doing splen-
did work, but to continue it will require
about $4,000. This small sum ought to
be speedily forthcoming. Contribu-
tons should be sent to William Lloyd
Garrison, No. 1872 Federal street, Bos-
ton. The appeal is signed by Phillips
Brooks, Brooke Herfo,d, Ednah D..
Cheney, and other well-known phi!an-
thrOpists.

SATURDAY, MAY II, 1890.

The doctrine of states-rights received
in the Iowa "orininal package" case a
more decided jolt that in even the
Maggie case. The Supreme Court of the
lutte States decided that state cannot
prohibit, within its own borders, the
sale of spurious liquors in the original
packages, and among the triumphs of
King. Alcohol must now be enumerated
his victory over the ancient Democratic
doctrine of states-rights. Once b4fore
in notable instance, the passage of the
Fugitive Slavelaw the theory of state
Sovereignty was set aside, and the states
at once retaliated, or adopted measures
for self-protection by their personal
Liberty" bills, 50 that outside of pro.
voking an immense amount of wrathful
feeling, the Fugitive Slave Bill was an
immense failure. Itremains to be seen
whether or not the above decision will
provoke similar outbreak of resistance
to an enactment and whether the Inter-
state Commerce Bill will share the fate
of the Fugitive Slave Bill. That it will
now suffer the anathemas of the prohi-
bitionists is self-evident, but their oppo-
sition will amount to but little since
their hostility to the Republican party,
and subservien to the Democracy was
made 80 manifest in recent campaigns.
The decision was concurred in by all the
Democratic members of the Supreme
Court and it virtually renders prohibi-
ton impossible in any state. The devo-
tees of whiskey can purchase their ''tor-
iginal packages" and drink their con-
tents without any regard whatever for
what the prohibitionists may think, do
or say. Original packages will be put
up in such shape that all from the rich
est to The poorest may have their wants
. supplied. The ''blind tigers" and dives
can flourish as dispensers of original
packages in the most prohibitionist
communities and political campaign
cannot be based upon this question un-
less it takes in the entire United States.
This is the DILEMMA ofthe prohibitionist;
that of the Democracy is no less per-
picking. They must abandon states
rights and affront the South, or abandon
whiskey and affront the saloon. But
states-rights is mere theory the
saloon is potent condition, and the
nomination of Horace Greeley will ever
be an illustration of the rapidity with
which the Democracy can abandon it's
cardinal principles when condition
confronts it. The conclusion will easily
be reached, the states are sovereign,
but whiskey is more so.
