A Handsome Tribute.

The following from Judge Brewer
will be read with pardonable pride by
all Kansas:
"In my boyhood's geography Kan,
sas was put down as part of the
Great American Desert, and yet she
has made the wilderness bud and bios
som as the rose. This year out from
her plains she has wrested 280.000,-
900 bushels of corn and 35,G00,O 600
bushels of wheat, and half the sod
within her borders has never yet been
turned. But grander far than any ma
terial development has been the path
way which she has lined with school
house and church. Go where you will
through her borders, and there stands
before you the open door of the school,
house, in whose portal is the ever
present Yankee school marin, ,priestess
of virtue and prophecies of knowledge
and glory; while the spires of her
thousands churches attest the uni
versal faith in him fer whose worship
our fathers crossed the sea. 1t is not
that in the past of his state every
Kansan glories, and in its future be-
lieves. This is the home of the mod
ern pilgrim. Here is the real Puritan
Plymouth Rock which has been mov-
ed from Massachusetts to Kansas, and
from this state henceforth shall flow
the ideas to rule the continent. It is
honor enough to have lived in Kansas
and been part of her history; and
though my work be in Washington, l
shall continue to write my name,
with gratitude and pride, of Leaven-
worth, Kansas.

A Farmers Market.

In an article on recent efforts of
Sweden to establish commercial re
lations with India Kuhlow's. says
German merchants '.should take his
well-devised scheme of the Swedish
Export Union as an example, espec-
tally as We have now at command a
double steam connection with India
(from Hamburg and Bremen) whilst
Sweden has first to establish such q
connection"
The article that Kuhlow's puts first
in Importance as an exportable pro-
duct is ghee, melted unsalted butter.
The importation of this article has
greatly increased. "From the 1st of
April to the 3Oth of June of this year
it amounted to 1,02s,O44 lbs, of a
value of 37s, ,o52 rupees, against 1885,
s32 lbs. value 26O, 1853 rupees in the
corresponding period of last year, and
579, 1886 lbs, value 2lO, ,lOs rupees in
the same months of 1897" or at the
rate of about two thousand tons q
year.
1t is said that it is important that
the dairies making ghee for use
among Brahmins should be inspect
ed by Brahmin, that he might GER
tify to the purity of the product Our
dairy products do not find an outlet in
the Indian market and if we wanted a
Brahmin to inspect our dairies we
would have to import him in an En-
glish ship through England and the
ghee would return by the same route.
In the mean time cur farmers are
urged to believe that It is the Tariff
which hinders their exporting some
thing besides wheat and that any at

a smart confidence man in Baltimore has
been victimizing the grave and dignified
United States Senators. Within the
past three weeks this man, who goes by
the name of VIM. Duvall, has been writ
ing to different senators, informing him
that the first born son in his family has
Just been named after them, enclosing a
copy of the baptismal certificate. The
letter also states that he has been so I'M
fortunate as to break leg, and that fell
low workmen have gotten up an enter
tainment for his benefit and asks if the
senator addressed would be SO kind as to
take the enclosed five tickets at dollar
each and remit to him.
Senator Henderson. who had received
such a note from Duvall, had seen a
similar note, sent to another senator.
He investigated the matter and found
that the senators were being victimized
According to the certificates Of baptism
which have been uncovered the following
senators have been worked: Dolph
Evarts, Higgins, Carlisle, Paddock
Squire, Wolcott, Edmunds, Sanderson
Pettigrew, Power, Stanford, Sawyer
Stockbridge, Blair, Hoar, Hale, Wash
burn, Vest and Hiscock.
There are those about the senate who
say that there are several other newly
born Duvalls, among them: John Sher-
man Duvall, Matthew Stanley Quay
Duvall and Arthur German Duvall
But the gentlemen thus honered insist
that they have not been called on. 1t is
understood that several of the senators
besides sending the S. asked for also
sent the little one a silver mug, spoon
or some other token Of regard. The
vice president did not escape. There is
Levi Morton Duvall and he or his
father owns nice silver cup appropri.
ately inscribed. It is probable proceed.
ings will be instituted against Duvall
notwithstanding the great size Of his
family and the added disability Of {

Chinese Exclusion Act.

WASHINGTON, -. u, Dec. ZZ.-tO or
some time past it has been the practice
of the Treasury department to return to
China, at government expence, all the
Chinese laborers convicted of entering
our territory in violation of the Chinese
exclusion act. This ruling applied to all
Cinnamon smuggIed over the Mexican
and Canadian borders, as well as to
those coming direct from China. A
recent decision by Judge Maxey, of the
United States District Court, for the
Western district Of Texas, however, will
if sustained, compel a radical modifca-
ton Of this practice. 1t is in effect that
the government has no right under the
law to send to China the Chinese labor
ers who enter the United States from
contiguous countries, unless evidence is
produced that they came direct from
China; or, in other words, that the Ian
guage OF the law authorizing their re-
turn ''to the country from whence they
come, should in such cases be construed
to mean the contiguous country, and
not China" In the case in question
two Chinaman who had been convicted
before the United States Commissioners
OF unlawfully entering the United
States from Mexico, were ordered to be
deported to China at the government
expense, Their counsel applied to
Judge Maxey for writ of habeas corpus
aud after hearing the evidence he order
ed their release from custody on the
ground that the Commissioner had ex-
ceeded his authority in ordering them
sent back to China. He held that they
would lawfully be sent to Mexico and
nowhere else.
