Twelve hundred year for the four rooms, 9"

Hcnen,l Mem Yn-t-

! A great many New Workers, who appear
/ 10 have a contract for doing all the taking
/ for their city, pretend to believe that New
! York viii finally get the fair. Their opin-
ion is based upon the belief that before long
Chicago will be willing to admit that she
cannot raise money enough to make the
/ fair a success.
There is a pretty strong probability that
| they will be disappointed. Chicago has
satisfied the committee Of the House which
has charge # the fair bill that she
has the necessary financial resources,
! and if the committee is satisfied there
will be no difficulty in getting
congress 10 enact the necessary legislation.
1t is true that Mr. Medill, the editor of the
Chicago Tribune, says that Chicago cannot
raise the amount of money reeded for the
fair, but it is probable that he intended to
be understood that New York, and other
cities which have extensive trade relations
with Chicago. would be asked to lend her
helping hand. There are committees now
at work soliciting subscriptions from rail-
roads and manufacturers in different parts
of the country, and there is no d1ubt that
they will succeed in raising a very large
sum.
Chicago man stated in Philadelphia a
few days ago that European syndicate,
which included some of the weathiest
bankers of England and France, was ready
to take controlling interest in the fair if
it were made stock concern. He said
that a representative of the Rothchilds was
now IN this country for the purpose of
purchasing the stock. The syndicate, he
said, was satisfied that the fair would be
paying institution, and was anxious there
fore to invest in it. Although one of the
Rothschilds is in this country, it is probable
that there is no truth in the foregoing
story.
1t is certain that Chicago isn't going to
give up her hold upon the fair if she can
help doing 50. She will make extraordinary
exertions to provide the amount OF money
that is needed, and if she fails to get it she
will go to congress for help. Before it will
be clearly known whether she is able to
meet the financial responsibility she has
assumed the preparations for the fair will
be far advanced, and if it then becomes
apparent that the fair will he failure
without government aid, congress, to save
the national honor, will vote her all the
money she wants. There is every proba-
bility, therefore, that the fair will be in

q Snecimen Contest

There is no doubt that most of the con-
tested election cases from the south are not
genuine contests. The contestants are re
publicans, and there is good ground for be-
lieving that they began contests not because
they had any grounds for doing so, but be-
cause they believed the republican ma iority
would seat them without regard to tie evil
dence, provided they could make out some
sort of case. The other day Mr.. Cate of
Arkansas was unseated, although it was
shown that he had a clear majority over
his opponent of 1000
Gen. Chalmers of Mississippi is contesting
the seat of Representative Morgan Of that
state. The elections committee was ready
to hear argument the other day, and Mr..
Morgan said that he was willing to concede
to Chalmers every vote he claimed, and to
strike out every one of his own votes that
was contested, and also to let the committee
decide the contest at once. His propo-
sition was so fair that even tie
republicans of the committee could not see
how to avoid accepting it. Mr.. Chalmers
objected, however, for the reason that Mr..
Morgan would still have had $500 major
ity. Mr.. Chalmers asked for time to get I'D
new evidence, and 1t would not he sur
prising II it would be granted him. Indeed,
IL is not improbable that no will be given

Oklahoma for the Blacks.

very interesting state of affairs exists
with regard to Oklahoma. A plan is on
foot to place that territory in the complete
control of colored people. 1t originated in
Graham county. Kansas, last year, where
secret society, called the First Grand indie
pendent Brotherhood, was organized, its
members being colored men, its object be-
ing the advancement of the colored race
and the future control of Oklahoma by that
race. The oath which the members take
binds them to oppose the white race,
and pledges them to politically aid people of
negro blood, and to assist each other in the
courts as against the whites.
But little Importance was attached to the
movement at first. butsit has spread until
similar societies have been organized in
seven cities of Kansas and in three towns
of Oklahoma, and in the meantime there
has been pretty steady flow of emigra-
ton to Oklahoma, until now the population
of that territory is said to be composed of
about $4,000 whites and 1900 or 90 OO
blacks. By the first of August next the
colored leaders expect the black population
to be not less than 10000. and they are TAX
ing steps to have every Office filled by col
ored men. E. c. McCabe of Kansas
is an applicant for the territorial
governorship, and he is backed by such
cllored men as Bruce, Pinchback and
Lynch. In case he cannot get the governor
snip, he is supposed to be willing to accept
the seer etaryship of the territory, aud if he
is not appointed to either Office, there will
1t is said, be political uprising among the
colored people Of the northern states against
the Republican party. McCabe is the only
negro ever elected to a state office in the
north. He was elected state auditor of
Kanses, but fell behind his party ticket
10000 votes in that republican stronghold.
President Harrison does not know what to
do in the matter. If he appoints McCabe,
the white inhabitants of Oklahoma will
be highly indignant. One of them,
| former Iowa republican, said a
few days ago that he would not give
| cents for Mr.. McCabe's life if he were
| appointed governor, and that the colored
| people would have to fight before they cap
tured Oklahoma. Besides displeasing these
people by the appointment. the President
would displease thousands of white repub-
hcans all over the country; and, on the
| other hand, the threat Of the colored people,
in case McCabe is not appointed, is ever
before him. 1t is strictly republican af-
| fair, however, and the democrats can afford
to stand off and watch matters
Oklahoma may furnish material for a
| great deal of discussion before long. If the
| colored people should gain absolute control
of its affair thew woud have an opn0r
tunity of showing how they could govern
| themselves. The scheme may be blown
higher than kite in few months, but just
now it seems to be worth while to keep an
eye upon it.

Col. Livingston's

Col. Livingston's Warehouse Plan,
In a recent interview Col Livingston, the
president of the farmers alliance in this
state, outlined a plan for federal aid TO
farmers which is virtually that which is
contained in bill introduced iato the SEN
ate by Senator Vance few days ago, and
to which attention has been called by the
MORNING News. 1t is in effect that the
government shall establish ware
houses in each county producing
annually crops worth not less than $500, 900.
and shall receive into these
warehouses the crops of the farmers, who
shall receive 50 per cent. of the market
value of them in treasury notes, and shall
have the privilege of selling the whole, or
any part, of them at any time they may
desire to do SO, paying back the money they
have received as their sales are made. Col.
Livingston is of the opinion that this plan
for aiding the farmers would be worth a
thousand times more to them than any re-
form that might be made in the tariff.
This plan for aiding the farmers is so i'm
mense in its proportions that the average
man is hardly able to comprehend it fully
unless it is very carefully and fully ex-
planned. Col. Livingston proposes to travel
over the state and explain it to the farmers,
at the same time calling their attention to
the Importance of supporting for congress
only those candidates who will pledge them
selves to support it, or something like it, in
congress.
The MORNING News is certainly in favor
of extending help to the farmers in any
legitimate and proper way in which they
can be helped. At first thought it does
not appear that this warehouse plan is a
practical one. Col. Livingston, however,
may be able to show that it is. In his tour
through the state he will come into contact
with great many very intelligent men,
who will ask him searching ques-
tions with respect to it. They
will not willingly admit that
it promises them mora relief for their pres
ent burdens than tariff reform, but doubt
less they are ready to listen and be con.
WINGED.
Col. Livingston thinks that If the whisky
product can be kept in bonded warehouses
the cotton crop, or the wheat or corn crop,
can also His illustration is not happy
one, however. for the reason that the con-
ditions attending the production and
ownership of whisky are altogether differ
emit from those attending production and
ownership of cotton and other crops. Col.
Livingston also thinks that the warehouse
plan will put an end to speculation in farm
products. The reasoning by which he
reaches that conclusion is not entirely sat-
isfactory. There are years when specula-
ton is beneficial to the farmers, partlcu-
larly cotton farmers. If it had not been
for speculation in cotton futures the prices
of cotton this year would have been doubt
less considerably below those which have
prevailed. The result of Col. Livingston's
tour through the state will be looked for
with considerable interest.

WHERE POOR TOBACCO GOES.

pean h arket.
From the Cincinnati TInles-Star.

From the Cincinnati Tines-Stdr.
A reporter strolled into one of the big to-
bacco warehouses on Front street yesterday
afternoon and watched the employees handle
the big hogsheads of tobacco. There were
hundreds OF the heavy hogsheads, each filed
with 1,500 pounds of tobacco.
How are the sales:" was asked of one of the
statesmen.
Very fair" said he. ''but not SO good as
they frequently are at this season of the year.
You see the workmen re-hooping the hogs
heads. Well, they have to do that with all of
them
''Whyf" was asked.
Because replied he, when the stock
comes into the warehouse it is hooped up so
close that it cannot be gotten at by the buyer,
consequently in order that samples may be had
from the center of the stock we have to take
away the hoops and remove the slaves of the
hogshead. Yes. it necessitates great deal of
trouble, but then it must be done"
Where do the poorer grades of stock got"
1t IS made into smoking tobacco and ex-
ported. Near all of our inferior grades of
stock are made into smoking tobacco and sent
