CHANCE FOR THEM.

Some of the protection organs are
shocked at the alleged discovery of a
scheme to be worked by the English ex-
hibitors at the worlds fair, that threat
ems to puncture their fabric and COM
bine business with politics. If they
are correct, it is a dreadful conspiracy,
and should be shOtted with diplomatic
reproach in advance, so to speak. One
of the eXasperated Nc Kinleyites rises
up, with the red currents rushing to
the face, and calculates, at is a Schem e
worthy of the English wing of the free
trade Democratic party, designed to
work marvellous results for the Demo
Gratis, the Farmers Alliance, the free
silver coinage men, the Frohibi-
tiOnists, and all organizations, fac
lions and cliQues that oppose the
Republican party" This is outra-
geouS. Some way should be devi sed
to head off those hateful Britishers who
are coming over to pander TO all the fac
lions opposed to the Republican party
and expose it to the popular wrath. But
what is their bastard scheme? This is
il, in all its hideOus proportions: These
English exhibitors are to attach to their
goods two lists of prices. the first the
one for which they are sold in England,
the other the English price with the
American tariff duty added. Could
anything be more monstrous? Still. it
might be supposed that this would af-
ford Just the opportunity wanted to
show how protection benefits the
consumer. The theory is that pro-
lection induces such competition
among the home manufacturers
as to reduce prices to low points, II
not down to the foreign figures. Here
is chance to put the free traders and
tariff reformerS to their stumpS. The
American goods will appear in the
vicinity of the same qualities made
abroad. They can have price lists. too,
aud show that they are sold well down
to the foreign figures. If it is found
that they are made about as eheaply in
this country as claimed, the tables Will
be turned on those daStardly English
exhibitors and conspiratOrS, and they
will be fOiIed in their game to build up
the Democratic party, the Alliance,
Prohibitionists and all other factions at
the expense of the Republican party &.
Then they will have the outlaws.

THE STATE BUILDING.

"There is no cavil as to the need of
a generous sum of money to give the
state showing at the Chicago fair to
compare favorably with the other
Western states, but somewhat of an ex-
aggerated idea appears to obtain as to
the scope of the state building. Some
suppose that it will contain most of the
exhibit of the state. This is not the
fact, of course. All the articles in
tended for the exhibit and which come
within the range of any sort of awards
must appear in their proper class In the
main building. Otherwise there would
be but a confused aggregation of small
fairs. The state building should be for
use rather than display, but should be
made reasonably attractive. AS a
structure it will be, so overshadowed
by the vast and magnificent buildings as
to cut no figule. it's needed, however,
as headquarters and depot for the
Minnesota visitors, and incidentally it
can be made valuable in advertising the
chief productions and resources of the
state. 1t should be taStefully decked
with the various elements that give peO-
pie pleasant impressions of tae state. 1t
should be an educational and missionary
dispensary for the outside world, giving
adequate conceptions of its productions,
resources and unsurpassed natural feat
ures. A good deal of space will be
needed for this, but the building itself
should not be allowed to absorb any
great portion Of the state appropriation.

WHERE TO SELL.

AS the harvest progresses the aggre-
gate production of wheat in the country
is being pushed up among the larger
figures. A round $4,000, 900 bushels is
not now regarded as eXtravagant. The
surplus that can be spared for the
hungry over the water is moderately
put at 200,000,000 bushels. The -four
from this would furnish several large
lOaves of bread for every human being
on the face of the earth. 1t is com
puted that to haul it East by rail would
take 300, 900 ears, or about seventy trains
of forty cars each for every day in the
year, Sunday excepted. While it will
not all go East by rail, it will afford
big and profitable business for the rail
roads. A stimulus will be given all
lines of business activity. and a period
OF great prosperity may be looked for,
because there are people over in
Europe who need all this surplus on
account of the failure of their crops,
and will buy it unlese speculation puts
the figure so high that they are con-
PEELED to grub along on cheaper and
poorer StuffS. Let the wheat grower
watch his retreating product, and see
how much of it goes to any of the mar
kets that the little reciprocity scheme
has been worked with of late. But for
the hunger in Europe, where would the
grain grower look for any market for
his big crop that would afford remuner-
alive figures? If it were not a matter
of necessity, IN view OF an unusual
shortage in their crops, the European
countries would take less than
usual Of American breadStuffs. Other
available supplies would have the pref
eTence. But they are the natural Gus
toners of the American farmer and
worth UNNECESSARILY more than all the
semi-ciYiliZed imitation republics to the
south ever can be. Their trade cannot
be had without exchange of products.
No European people are going to buy
breadstuffS over this side and pay in
goldJ if they can get them elsewhere and
pay in their own manufactures. 1t was
not a specially good time to sell farm
products 10 Great Britain, yet last year
England and ireland bought of the
United States S117, 326. 912 of provisions,
and the total sales Of products to Eng
land alone were 1886, 920, 665, while this
country took in return but s167,O4O,O53,
leaving balance in our favor OF nearly
S2OO,0OO,OOO. 1t is computed that in
twenty years England has paid the
United States S3,OOO,OOO, GOO, the vast
majority OF which was for farm prod
ucts. The South and Central Ameri-
can regions last year took of these less
than slO,00O,OO0. 1t is fortuitous oc-
currence that there is such a great de-
mand for breadstuffS in Europe this
year. But that is the direction of the
markets to be fostered and encouraged.

Mortimer's SwindIe Develops in
Bad Shape.


CHICAGO, Aug. 14.-Postofice In
specto1 Stuart was in receipt of many
letters to-day which show that the Ma
tlonalCapitalSa Savings, Building and Loan
association was even greater SWlndle
than at first supposed. Daniel Kouns,a
Leeds, To-, farmer writes that not only
did the association succeed in getting
him to purchase stock, but it got the
deed of his farm as we'll. He says:
II bought ten shares OF stock,
for which | expected loan. |
paidd three months dues in advance,
$40 for appraising my property. and So
receipt, but they wrote that L could not
get a loan, as the abstract sent them
of the deed did not show owned the
land. [ sent them the deed and they
now have it. Please send it back"
A man in Lewistown, Pa, represent
ing a large number of people, who
formed a syndicate to purchase shares
in the association, writes that the syn
dictate invested i'll titty-two shares,
which were paid for IN full. Before
investing, however," says the Lewis
town man, 1--WE were very cautious and
went to the auditor general. who looked
up the incorporation papers of the as

Another victim named f. r. Muse, in
Pleasantvile, KY, says he was the agent
of the association, and sent large sums
to Mortimer, which he collected from
subscribers to the stock. For this he is
individually responsible, land is ruined
