Hard Road to Travel.

Senator Sherman, who has done as
much as any other man to burden the
farmers by his adroit work in behalf of
bankers and capitalists, talking to a
reporter for New York paper, said !:
"The rise of the Farmers Alliance
is due to the fact that the farmers have
had hard road to travel of late. Ag-
riculture has been wonderfully pushed
and developed of late in India, in
Australia, in South America, and in
deed in ali paris of the world. Be
sides, methods of farming have been SO
improved, that any farmer can now
produce as much with one hour'a labor
as few years ago he could have pro-
duced with three. Consequently prices
have fallen, as they always do when
competition increases and methods of
production are improved And this
is what the farmers of the United
States have felt all through. Abso
lutely, their condition has been i'm
proving instead Of growing worse.
whether or not the success of the
Farmers Alliance will result in the
enactment Of what is called Farmers
Alliance measures in the next Con-
gress, depends upon too many contin-
gencies to make any prediction worth
anything. They say that about fifty
members of the next House, either Al
lance men or indorsed by the Alliance,
have been elected directly upon that
issue. They will undoubtedly do all
in their power to achieve the ends they
aim at How they will go about it, 1
cannot say. They may fern third
party or they may coalesce with the
Republicans. If they adopt the latter
alternative, the Democratic majority
in the House would soon disappear.
They may possibly, through combi-
nation with either the Republicans or
the Democrats, manage to frame some
measures in such a way as to secure
the necessary support in the Senate.
"The measures, however, for which
the Farmers Alliance are calling are
measures which cannot possibly sue
ceed. Every country which has ever
tried to get along with fiat money has
gone to the wall. 4 country is on the
road to ruin whenever it issues more
paper money than it needs or more
than has solid cash basis behind it.
There is no objection to larger cir
culating medium provided it is re-
deemable in gold and silver coin. We
have learned that all other currency is
a failure During the war we had to
issue paper. It was an imperative
necessity, and I voted for the bill.
After while the value Of the money
began to decline until it was worth
only 40 cents on the dollar. We had
great struggle to get back to par,
but when we reached that point pros
perity was as. ured.

Gvilising Africa.

1t seems that many disgraceful
scenes marked the passage of Stanley
and his men through the wilis of the
Dark Continent, but few civilized hu
man beings can conceive of the horri
BILE crime, substantiated by several
witnesses, which is laid at the door OF
Lieut. Jameson, one of the young En-
glishmen in command Of the reer col
umn of the exploring party. Even
the wild sayages we're shocked at the
barbarity Of these meh and revolted
against them.
Stanley's Zanzibari servant, Sahleb
Ben Osmary, handed the following
signed statement to the Times New
York correspondent regarding the
cannibal incident: Jameson asked
l1amadi whether cannibalism was a
fact Hamadi replying, Yes Jane
son gave him cloth to purchase slave.
Hamadi procured girl, but fatty re-
fused to obey James N IS order to hand
her over to the cannibals. The Zan-
zibaris expressed their disgust by 60
ing away. jameson himself took her
by the wrist and handed her to the
cannibals, who stabbed her, cut her
quivering flesh, toasted it ON sticks
and ate it. During the whole perfor
nance Jameson sat skeiching. He
was accompanied by his boy, Mafelia,
Hamadi, and Zanzibaris.
After finishing six sketches of the
cannibals slaughtering the victim and
preparing the meat, he went into
his tent and painted them in water
colors. He seems to have been led to
commit this crime through heartless
and morbid curiosity.

A dispatch to the World from North
Dakota says:
.Settlers on the border 'of the Sioux
Reservation bring stories of the arm
ing of Indians, which are borne out by
Joseph Buckley, who speaks their
language. Buckley came in today,

ton will shortly GO on the war path,
and that they have got possession of
Clusters rifes, which the United
States have never found. Local
hardware men have in the last few
DAYS sold their entire stocks of anu
milton to the Indians. The Indians
say if they are unsuccessful in the
raid they will get double rations, and
they have nothing to lose.
Citizens here and settlers who are
unprotected believe Gen. Ruger and
the Indian authorities are harboring a
feelisg of false security, and that when
TOD late the number of troops at Fort
Lincoln will be Increased The mayor
of Mandan has called r.eeting, and
the War department will be asked to
furnish citizens with guns, if not with
soldiers Many settlers between Man
dan and the reservation are abandon
ing their farms and ranches because
of lack of protection afforded them by
the government. The most conserva.
tive feel gloomy at the outlook.

A Pittsbury dispatch says:

Republicans Grabbing Everything.
IEeom the Raltin,ore Sun !

From the BdtLtnso1e Sun.J
One of the results of the recent cleo
ton will be that every Democrat in
any Office which yields respectable
salary or is of any kind of Importance
will have to go. There are several
diplomatic and consular positions of
the higher grades yet filed by Demo
Gratis, and also several postmasters in
large cities, particularly in the South.
They are all marked, aud however
much Mr.. Harrison would like to
keep efficient men in place. he will n t
be able to close his ears to the shrieks
of the wounded from the late battle
field. Rumor is busy with the name
of Congressman Adams, of Chicago,
for minister to China, vice DENLY, the
Indiana Democrat, whom Harrison
has not recalled because of personal
friendship. General DENLY is said to
be perfectly willing to come home, and
Congressman Hit, whose influence
with Secretary Blaine is said to be all
powerful, is urging. it is said, that MIR.
Adams succeed him.

QUAY'S RISE AND FALL,
HOW he WAS REWARDED FOR Pc
LITIOAL DISCRETION.
He Commenced His Career as Business
Politician" and Never Refused to Sell
Out His Friends to Benefit Himself.

He Commenced His Career as Business
Politician" and Never Refused to Sell
Out His Friends to Benefit Himself.
The "Man About Town" for the
New York Star gives this interesting
bit of Qray's history:
The first hard blow the Camerons
struck Curtin was in Turing QUAY
from him-the same Quay; for Mat
thew Stanley, even at that time, had
begun to show those marked peculiari
ties of character which have since
made him chairman of the Republican
National Committee, but failed to get
him "a Governor of his own" in Penn
sylvania. In 1858 Quay was elected
Prothonotary in Beaver county, and
in 1880 went into the legislature. His
energy and shrewdness then brought
him to the notice of Gov. Curtin, who,
at the expiration of the session, made
him his private secretary. After the
famous meeting of Governors at
Washington in 1862, Curtin appoint
ed Quay ss State agent at Washing
ton. In everything he was Curtin's
man. Everything he had he owed to
Curtin, and he seemed to be the most
loyal henchman the Governor had and
the Camerons, already jealous of Cur
tins power and popularity, noticed his
activity. At the close of the war he
went back to the legislature, and was
a candidate for Speaker, backed by
the Curtin faction. To carry out their
own schemes the Camerons found it
necessary to defeat Quay. Simon
Cameron was candidate for the Uni
ted States Senate, and it was not policy
to have any serious split in the party.
Don Cameron wss managing his
fathers canvass.
Go up to Mr.. Quay's room and
see what he will be satisfied with" he
said to his fathers private secretary,
now one of the best known political
writers of Pennsylvania. The young
man obeyed orders.
"Did Mr. Cameron send you to
me?' said young Quay.
"He did, said the messenger.
Quay smoked a moment in silence,
and then said: "Tell Mr.. Cameron
that want eight appointments. and
that l will have to talk With him."
"D-n the fellow. like his impu-
dence," said Don when Quay's mes
sage was reported to him. "I'll give
them"
With that Cameron went to Quay's
roora himself What passed between
them no one knows, but Mr.. Quay
got complimentary vote for Speaker,
got hia eight appointments, and from
that time on was one of the most loyal
adherents of the clan Cameron. All
of which, as the story goes, is one of
the reasons why Ex-Governor Curtin
looks with satisfaction upon the second
downfall of his old private secretary.
