EMERSON ON NEWSPAPERS.
Views of the Philosopher on the Every
Day Educator.
From the Eeso York World.

From the Ne,c York World
In his book of conversations with Emer.
son Mr.. Woodbury. reports the seer as saying
that newspapers have done much to alb
breviate expression, and 30 to improve
style"
"This is "a hard saying" for the accept
ance OF those small essayists and other
superior persons who decry the newspapers
for one of their most frequent complaints is
that the newspaper writer, in the haste in
cid ant to bis work, disoards the graces of
rhetoric and misleads the popular taste
with crude thought and unpublished utter
ance.
But Emerson was right and the superior
persons are wrong. The influences of
newspapers upon style has been good. not
bad. II has done much, as Emerson says,
''to abbrevIate utterance." but that is not
the whole of the service. IL has taught the
value Of simplicity in expression, Of direct
ness in style and Of clear thinking as the
condition of clear writing 1t has made
men understand the advantage Of saying
what is to be said aud then stopping. IL
has banished the exordium and the perora-
ton from literature.
The assumption that the higher kind Of
newspaper writing Is hasty and sltpshod is
unfounded. The newspaper writer writes
RAPIDLY, but his mind has been trained to
think rapidly and TO give quick formulation
to thought. His art is akin TO that OF the
extemporaneous orator.
In minor reporting, done by novices, the
style is often faulty and the diction some
times bad especially where there Is not
time for editorial revision but the editori u
writing and the more carefully done news
and special articles Of any great modern
newspaper will compare very favorably in
deed with the book and magazine literature
of our time, in point Of vigor and correct
ness of form.
1t is fortunate that this is SO, because the
newspapers are now the chief teachers of
the people in this as in other matters. They
are much more widely read than any other
form OF literature, and are In fact the only
literature read at all by the majority of the
people
In this particular the tendency of the
newspapers is to grow steadily better. They
more aud more insist upon the best educa-
tIonal qualifications on the part of their
writers. They more and more seek TO en-
list scholarship and culture in their service,
and men of the highest literary qualiica-
tious are more aud more inclined to seek
newspaper utterance as that which gives
largest power and influence to the messages
they bear.
n Emerson had come to manhood in our
day he would have found his true vocation
in a newspaper Office. 1t is pity that he
did not have that opportunity to reach
hundreds of thousands with a wisdom which
was uttered onlyto q chosen few.

THAT EMERGENCY RATE.

To the Editor OF the Eagle.
Doubtless ''Kanzan" is correct when
he states ''lf our farmers were full hand
ed enough to carry this corn crop and
feed it to hogs we would not be in any
distress. The disease is not too much low
pric ed corn, but too few hogs and too
little capital to handle our crop" Indeed
we do not know a single farmer. ground
down as he NAV be by trusts" "cor-
ners' and railroad corporations, VINO
would not agree with the above PROPOSE
ton. If all of us had as much money
as we wanted we would not care what
prices or rates railroads made on corn.
But here is the rub. There are a good
many farmers in Kansas who do not
have all the money they want, who do
not have ell the money they need to
live and educate their children, who are
not full handed enough to carry their
corn crop and feed it to hogs there
fore 1t il is exactly this condition that
needs relief. And if the temporary re-
lief OF low rates for transportation were
given, perhaps the farmers would be-
come ''full handed enough" to buy hogs
next year and handle their crops. 1t
seems weak logic, or railroad logic, TO
say that because farmers can't have last
ing rellef, therefore they shall have no
relief. Certainly more money and well
to do and well doing farmers are wanted,
but since we don't have enough of these.
let US give those we have all the relief
we can.
But we are told "the emergency rate
has never been of any real benefit to the

great grain depots of the world
nix the price OF grain,' says
kanzan. Well, Chicago is one of
those depots, and it pays today
20 cents for corn from Kansas as well as
fer corn from Illinois. Now if the rate
70 haul Kansas corn to market was re-
duced 10 cents a bushel, would that

Chicago, while Illinois corn brings -

drop from 90 cents TO 10 cents in day.
because Kansas got cheaper rates: We
think not. Kansas is a great state, but
not yet great enough TO flood the market

SOME AMERICAN EXPORTS.

American Mail and Export Journal.
| There were exported from the port OF
New York during the month of Decem-
ber 800 cases of books, valued at $3S, 1856
Among the countries which received
them are: British Australasia, Central
America, Cuba, British possessions in
Africa, Argentine Republic, British West
| Indies, British East Indies, China, New
foundland, United States of Colombia,
England, Scotland, Germany, Belgium,
Holland, Mexico, Japan, Portuguese pos
sessions in Africa, San Domingo. Brazil,
Chill, Ecuador, France, Siberia, Nova
Scotia, New Zealand, Peru, Italy, Uru-
quay, British Guiana, Danish West
Indies, Siam, Venezuela, Russia and

The exports of stationery goods dur
ing December from New York were SS5
cases, valued at $45,346 The countries
of distribution included Cuba, British
West Indies, England, Norway, Central
America, Chill, France, Porto Rico,
United States of Colombia, Brazil, Scot
land. Spain, Haytl, Mexico, Germany,
New Zealand and Newfoundland.
The exports of paper passing out of
the port of New York for December
numbered in packages and cases SO, $50,
valued at $55,2S0. The countries to
which they were sent included Cuba.
British West Indies, Central America,
Hayti, Porto Rico, United States of Co
lombia, British Honduras, England,
Brazil. Danish West Indies, Mexico,
New Zealand and Germany.
The exports of rosin fell off somewhat
in December, but the total shipments in
that month from the port of New York
were 5,51O barrels, valued at S14, ,359.
Among the countries receiving this pro-
duct were United States of Columbia,
Cuba, Venezuela, Uruguay, Peru, French
West Indies and Scotland.
The value of our exports of agricul-
tural impliments for the first eleven
months of 1889 was 81, 247, ASS. For the
same period of 1888 it was So, ,634, ,412.
The increase was 81, 1864 ,046; a very good
showing.
The increase in values of our exports
of iron and steel and manufactures
thereof for eleven months of 1885, COM
pared with the same period for the year
preceding, was $2,347, ,097. Of this
amount, machinery, exclusive of sewing
machines, took up $2,54S. .429. This in-
dicates the growing demand for Ameri-
can machinery.
An increase of S1,000,O00 is noted in
the values of exports of the manufac-
lures of wood for the eleven months of
1880, ended with November last. House

BUTLER AGAINST CLEVELAND.

General Butler announces a startling
political discovery. He has found that
10000 votes cast for him in New York
city In 1884 were counted for Grover
Cleveland. He says he can prove this,
and declares that he will. But why
should he? What good will he accom-
plish? He cannot rectify the wrong
which he asserts was perpetrated. The
country has endured the infiiction of
Cleveland's administration, and is grad
uaily recovering from it. All intelligent
people know already that the presidency
was stolen for Mr.. Cleveland. And if
General Butler should establish what he
claims he would only furnish additional
evidence OF what is already proven. And
Democrats, who know how the presi-
dency was procured for Cleveland, claim
that it was all right, and they will con-
tinue to so claim, whatever the evidence
to the contrary. There are few inno-
cent Democrats who really believe that
Mr.. Cleveland was honestly and fairly
elected president. They are fast stuck
in this belief by prejudice, and are made
solid in it by ignorance. Nothing could
move them or phase them. They believe
because they believe. So where will
General Butler make any real profit by
carrying out his threat: He could not
obtain the satisfaction even Of making
Mr.. Cleveland uncomfortable. Nothing
could disturb his Stolidity,

SHALL WE MAKE OUR OWN sUGAR9

In the year 1888 the United States inn
ported about 2,521, 100000 pounds OF
sugar, the value Of which was estimated
at over $4,000, 900. There was manu-.
factured during that year in the southern
states about 275,0O0,000 pounds of cane
sugar.
Some of the leading sugar manufac-
turers of Louisiana claim that that state
alone is capable Of producing sugar
enough to supply the demand of the
United States. Within the last three or
four years successful experiments have
been made in the manufacture of sugar
from sorghum and from beets. A small
appropriation has been made by con-
gress to aid in the development Of the
sugar industry in this country.
Within the past two or three years
sugar mills have been erected at num-
Der of points in this state for the purpose
of experimenting with sorghum cane as
a sugar producing crop. Where proper
effort was put forth and the industry
conducted on strict business and in
dustrial principles, the efforts have been
successful to a highly satisfactory degree
and the work will be extended and pros
ecuted vigorously.
These experiments go to show that
under proper encouragement by the
government and the different states, the
manufacture of sugar in this country
can not only be made successful, but re-
munerative, SO that in few years we
could manufacture all the sugar
exports large quantities of sugar, more
than they consume, manufactured from
beets, and we have as good a soil and
climate for the cultivation of sugar
beets as they have in Germany, and the
success attending these experiments
show that good sugar can be made from
it.
From the situation as shown in the
foregoing it is clear that congress should
not repeal the present duties on sugar.
Let the duties remain and use them to
pay bounties to encourage the produce
ton of sugar at home. IL this is done,
in less than ten years, we will build up
sugar industry in this country that will
keep at home the $S0,000,000 that we
now pay for foreign sugar and we Will
reduce the cost of sugar to the consumer
from Six and eight cents pound-the
present price. to three or four cents
pound, and produce better quality of
sugar than we are buying of
foreign countries, and we will build up
an industry in the west and south that
will make all kinds of farming profitable
to the producers. Many believe that the
country has been suffering for the last
two or three years from over production
of farm products. Now, by diversifying
the products and letting a large number
of our farmers raise cane and beets, there |
will be less corn and wheat and other |
grains raised and the price of these pro-
ductf will be advanced sufficiently to |
give the farmers good profit.

ENGLANp's SILVER POLICY.

1t is learned, on what is said to be
the authority OF one of the governors of
the bank of England, that the story of
the banks determination to issue notes
based upon silver, has for its foundation
the fact that Mr.. GoSchen. the chancel-
lor OF the exchequer, has been urged to
introduce bill into parliament 10 pro-
vide for the coinage Of silver bullion. to
relieve British bankers and merchants
from embarrassments by the constantly
recurring scarcity of silver in shanghai
and other trading centers of China. For
several months past this scarcity of sill
yer has been more remarkable than at
any other period, especially as in ad-
dition TO the imports of this metal. \
noteworthy supply has long been OBJ
tanned from mines in the Chinese empire
itself. An increasing demand for the
