FARMERS.
Their Mission a High and
Noble One.
THE COOPERATION MOVEMENT
Trained Leaders Demandsd-Bac-
calaureate Sermon at the Mas
saohusetts College.

AMHERST, Mass, June 15.--The bac-
calaureatc sermon before the graduating 2
class at the Massachusetts, Agricultural
college was delivered to day by Pro-
icssor G. 5. Walker, Tho topic was tho
"Duty of the Educated Farmer"
Professor Walker said; "Heretoforc
in all parts Of the world the farmer has
been no match for his adversary. Hlo
has never held his own against soldier or
priest, against politician or statesman.
In ancient times lac was q slave. in the
middle ages u serf. In the nineteenth
century he is slave. serf, peasant or
proprietor, according to location.
American farmers, as a class, are face to
face with crisis, They have subducd
n continent, and furnished raw material
Tor our factories, bread for our .oper-
ntive, and manhood for our civilization.
They have sustained the national credit
with their hard-earned dollars, rescued
endangered liberty with their conscien-
tious ballots, and defended time and
again the stars and stripes with their
loyal blood. Vigorous in body, strong
In character, striking in individuality,
lovers Of home, massive in common
sense, fertile In resources, devout be
levers In providence, the farmers of
America will never allow themselves 10
be overwhelmed by the fate that sunk
tho tlllcrs of the soil In India, in Egypt,
and In Europe. From all parts of this
land the farmers are coming together.
Organization and cooperation are won.
deTitil ideas that have awakened
them AS never before. They are grasp
ing hands with grip that means some.
thing, comparing ways and means, and
uniting upon tie ends to be gained,
and they demand for themselves and
their children an education equal 10
the nest. They insist upon q fair share
OF the profits of American industry,
claiming that no state can long exist in
which the tillers nj the soil bear most OF
the burdens and share hut little Of the
blessings of adva ncing civilization. But
they are In danger Of making mistakes
in the struggle uhat may turn buck the
pro iross OF the movement. They de
mand leaders. To supply this demand
u the imperative duty OF the educated
farmer. What socver OF bodily vigor, OF
mental power and OF moral heroism the
educated farmers have acquired from
ancestors. college or university, they
will need that they may consecrate e
themselves to the great work oi
trenRthening their brathren, the farm
ers Of America, so that they shall ever
remain the immovabio foundation oi
this, the ouiy republic whose empire
has not been rapidly undermined"

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
A Lively Debate on the Ii.
cense Bill.
ADDRESS BY Mr.. GLADSTONE
Goschen Hits the Statesman Hard
and the Latter Retorts--
The Vote.

LONDON June l3.--The debate on the
licensing bill was continued In the com
mons this evening. There was u long
discussion on the proposal to apply the
compensation fund to education. Glad.
stone made vigorous speech. Tho
opponents of the bill, he said, consid
cred 1t distinctly a retrograde step in
social reform. The public house values
had already risen through tho prospects
caused by the measure, and the moment
1t became law every public
house in the country would be
regarded as worth more than It's
market price. The bill would establish
the principle that Licenses might be
bought UP 10y money from the public
taxes at prices virtually fixed by the
license-holders, The amendment that
the legal powers of the magistrates re-
main intact was merely delusiye In the
face OF tho entire character OF the bill,
The amendment really means the en-
dowment of n gigantic interest at the
expense Of the public purse. II would
entirely paralyzc all hope of etiecting
u reduction in tho number Of public
houses, without a ruinous cost to
the country.
Goschen charged that the response.
bility for enhanced value Of the public
houses rested greatly with Gladstone,
who had, he said, laid down the doc
trine Of compensation.
Gladstone retorted that he never spoke
on the subject, except In connection
with local option and the extinction OF
the public houses.
Goschen quoted John Bright as to the
injustice of canoelling licenses without
giving compen sation, and declared tina,
the ianatical opposition to the bill was
due TO jealousy,
Sir George Trevellyn characterized the
bill As the worst proposal OF the kind
ever submitted to parliament and n
severe blow to the cause Of temperance.
Finally, after long debate, the
cloture was adopted. and Aoland's pro-
posal rejecteu-2I5 to 243.
The announcement of the tiglres was
recorded with great applause BY the OPP
position, who regarded the cutting
down of the government: sjorty as a
distinct victory for them. II 10 reported
that II Smith resigns his seat in the
cabinet lie will be succeeded by Lord
Harrington, and that sir Henry james
will succeed Matthews as hoine secre-

THE CIVIL SERVICE.
Report of the Investigating

LYMAN'S ACTION INEICUSABLE

Milwaukee Postoffice.

WAsHINGros, June i3.-The house
committee on reform In the civil service,
which conducted the Investigation into
the charges against the civil service
commission, held a meeting to-day and
agreed upon a report. The COMMITTEES
say; ''We find that Commissioners
Ralston and Thompson have discharged
their duties with entire fidelity and in
pgrity, but that the official conduct of
Commissioner Lyman has been cbarac-
terized by laxity OF discipline in his ad-

ton Is completed"
Tie committee submitted a resolution
that u COPY OF the report and testimony
be submitted to the president
Regarding the case of Alexander
Campbell, Commissioner Lyman $
brot her-in-law, the committee says; at
is clear that Campbell copied the quos-
tons Furnished Flynn, who gave instrnc-
;ions to persons desiring examinations,
and that the questions were not obsolete.
Campbell should have been dismissed.
His retention indicated n gross laxity in
discipline and his promotion would
seeu hot To have been doiensible. he
committee can hot accept as satisfactory
the anSwers OF Messrs. Obefly. Lyman
and Doyle that they believed tie ques-
lions to he Obsolete. The omission TO
ascertain the truth was as reprehensible
ats to have disregarded II after IL had
been ascertained.
"1he commission does not believe
that Commissioners Roosevelt and
Thompson are deserving OF ceu.ure Tor
siot having taken action in the Campbell
matter when their attention was called
20 II. There was "A concurrency of state
ment to them that the matter had been
fully investigated, anu in not taking
further action the commission think
they were thoroughly justified"
Respecting the course of tho com
mission in the case OF Shiuy, the Mil
wsukce postsfiice employe. who was dis
charged by ex-Postnaster Paul Tor ex
posing frauds, the commission says: 1T
WAS apparent to the civil service COM
mission that Shiiy was being
punished Tor disclosing the truth, and
they ieit II their duty to aid him
by Their influence In securing employ
ment, and thereupou recomm m"nded
him for appointment in the census
office. The committee Is unable to hnii
anything TO criticise in that behalf. The
tigatlon of the alleged Irregular
ties in the Milwaukee postotiiCr. con-
ducted by Doyle and Webster, disclosed
an utter disregard of the civil service
law in that office. The failure to submit
the result OF that Investigation to the
president indicates u disinclinution To
discharge an obvious duty, and for that
reason we would subject the com mmision-
ers to censure. On the reortanlzatinn
of the com mission by the appointment

uarities OF the Milwaukee postoih "a
