has been with the growth of wealth a

Talking on Tariff to Farmers.

At the Dansville, N. Y, fair D. M.
Harter. of Ohio, made an address to the
farmers on the subject of tariff reform.
in the course of which he made the fol-
lowing points that were applauded:
That any tariff was wrong and rob-
berry: that it took from the consumer
more than five times over what was re-
quired for government expenditures;
that legislation favoring SO called pro-
tective tariff was unconstitutional: that
the present protection system was a
Chinese exclusion theory, while low tar
if was truly American, as Il measure of
the largest liberty. and Livingston coun-
ty farmers would take their choice be-
tween Chinese and American theories

Miss Jessie Langford is the only IL

She lives at Duluth and owns small
yacht. She stood Il special examination
before the Duluth board. and was given
a daylight license as special pilot to navi-

she can box the compass readily. and
stood the rigid examination better than

raised against such honorable names as

has been the case from the remotest days.
But farmers. if they are to be successful.

Canal Projects in France.

There are now under consideration
two projects, which if carried out will
have an immense effect on the trade Of
France. The first is the project Of
making Paris into port by canalizing
the Seine, SO that sea going vessels can
make the passage from Havre to Paris.
The second proposal is for the construc-
ton of canal to connect the Mediter-
ranean with the bay of Biscay, with the
intention Of intercepting great part of
the shipping which at present passes
through the straits of Gibraltar.

they can be managed successfully and

have been expended on them within the

We protest against the proposed

The fourth volu ne of the transactions
of the Kansas State Historical Society
has been issued, {; book Of $40. pages.
The volume includes the fifth and sixth
biennial reports Of the society, before
issued in pam phlet form, and shows the
business of the society and its accessions
during aperiod of four years, lSS6-lS9O,
thus containing Il permanent record Of
the work of the society for that period.
The book also contains the addresses
delivered before the society at the annu-
al meetings, from 1886 to 1890 Besides
half of the volume is occupied with the
official correspondence pertaining to the
Office Of governor of Kansas Territory
during the latter part of Gov. Shannon's
administration ia 1856, and of Gov.
Geary's administration from September
8, 1856, to March 10, 1857, including the
official executive minutes kept 10y Gov.
Geary. These documents relate to a
considerable portion of the most STIR
ring period of Kansas territorial hsto-
ry. They have been gather ed by Secre-
tary Adams from congressional dOcu-
ments published about that period.
These documents have hitherto lain hid
den from the general public. and much
of what they contain will be found TO be
new to students of Kansas history. The
book has IN alphabetical index of sixty
pages, pointing to every subject and al
most overy name contained in it; also a
chronological index to the contents of
the public documents. AS book of
historical reference, it is one of great
value.

The Farmers Alliance has scared most
of the public men. They all want to be
accounted a friend of the farmer, and
such as hold farms are pointing to their
horny hands and talking about crops
upon every public occasion. Many of
them have been brought up on farms.

THE DUTY OF FARMERS.

They Have Become tho Nero vassals Of
Railroad Potentates and Must Act.
We approve Of farmers organizing for
mutual benefit and believe they have
the means Of relief in the ballot box.
Everybody knows that the farmers
throughout the land are impoverished
and distressed, not through those calam-
tiles of nature against which human
prudence is unable to guard, but by a
quarter of century Of unwise class
legislation. They have formed alliances
none too soon for the safety and perpetu-
alton Of republican government. The
tributes of revenue taxation, supple
mented by excessive railway charges.
exactions of unlawful trusts and COM
binations, and the operations of specula-
tors to produce, are rapidly reducing
them to condition bordering on pau
perism.
The railroads are capitalized on Il basis
of two. three or four dollars for every
one actually paid in, and can make re-
turns to the holders of their securities
only by charging nearly ali The profits
Of the producers crop for its transporta-
ton to market BY sundry devices
stocks and bonds are issued to amounts
often aggregating more than four times

may have been given to the company by

and by town, county or state subscrip-
tons. Then under the delusive resigna-
ton of syndicate Of European-Ameri-
can bankers are paid commissions Of
per cent. for scattering large portion
of these securities all over Europe. The
European holders thereupon send proxies
to Wall street bankers with instructions
to select a $4,000, $4,000 or even a
100000 year president, whose ability
will enable him to obtain labor at star
walton wages and squeeze large divi-
dends out of the farmers.
The toilers Of the earth have become
the mere vassals Of the railway poten-
tates, and the victims of the political
leaders Of both parties, who are affiliated
with and serve them. The farmers al
iances have sprung. like Jonah's gourd.
out of the ground in single night.
Their aggression into the realm of poll
tics will not be for day, nor pitilessly
repressed. In the eyes Of humanity and
of religion the farmer is exercising
sacred right which should be guarded
and enforced by all the power of the
government. The poor and the pros
porous are equals before the polls. where
the farmer will appear IN the grandeur
of his misery and the rich in the petit
ness of his folly. The meeting in this
city is a step in the right direction. and
we trust it will rebound to the benefit of
every farmer in Colorado. Field

Avoids the Connaught Party.

Avoids the Connaught Party.
The duke and duchess of Connaught
were actually snubbed by a high Canadian
official. Premier MERCER has caused a
hutter in society by his course. Since the
advent of the royal party in Montreal he
has studiously avoided them. He was one
OF the guests invited to meet them at din
ner on Monday evening at Sir George
Stephens, but preferred to preside at the
distribution Of prizes to the scholars of
the night schools and was again absent the
day following, although specially invited
to the excursion down the Lachine
Rapids. Mercier's radical friends
are delighted and say his atti-
tude is perfectly consistent with his demo-
cratic and republican ideas, but society,
especially among the English element, is
highly lncensed and indignant that thu
soldier son of the queen and bis Prussiar
princess should have been sighted. 81,
George Stephens does not care to speak of
the incident. He admits that Mercier was
not at the dinner Monday evening, but be-
lieves that he sent an apology, although he
had not seen it. MERCER himself is, be-.
sides, engaged in el%ectioneering in some
backwoods district, and cannot be reached
to get his version Of the affair. Henry
Stairns, speaker of the legislative councils
and political supporter of Mercier, who
was at the dinner, is at a loss to account
for the premier's studied neglect of royolty.

KILLED BY INDIANS.

Northern Cheyennes.
Representative Carter, of Montana, has
received a telegram from Hon. Joe Scott,
OF Miles City, announcing that a MIR. Fer
euson, a prominent stock raiser near the
Northern Cheyenne Indian agency. had
bean killed by the Indians; that the Indians
we're apprehensive of arrest and were get
ting readyto go on the war.path; settlers
were leaving the vicinity and seeking
refuge in the distant towns. Mr.. Scott
asked that the war department furnish
troops to protect protect property aud life
and to arrest che guilty Indians. Repre-
sentative Carter and Senator Sanders went
to the war department and laid the case
before the secretary and urged
that troops be sent Immediately from Gus
ter and keogh TO the reservation. The
secretary promised to give the matter his
early attention. There has been ill feeling
between settlers and Indians for years.
These Indians were once removed to In
dian territory, but cut loose in 1888 and
went across country to their old reserva-
ton, where they were located by executive
order. During their absence white settlers
went on the reservation, and have never
removed, and the title is Still in dispute.
Carter has been urging the Indian bureau
to take some steps toward the removal of
the Indians or take some decisive action in
the case. 1t is expected that some out
rage would follow the present relations,
which would spur the government to take
some action. The Indian bureau is now
in correspondence with the war depart
ment in reference to the northern Chey-
ennes and the protection of people living
near the reservation.
