The Behring Sea Question.

Very few people have followed the
details of the diplomatic controversy
about the seal fishery in the Behrng
Sea. in which a great deal of ability
has been shown upon both sides.
The correspondence is very long and
clever, and there is undoubtedly
some question of the exact extent Of
our purchase from Russia and OF our
rights. But nothing has occurred to
show that it is not a question when
should be submitted to arbitration.
Nobody in this country or in England
wants to fight about it, and if the
clever negotiators cannot reach a
conclusion, they can agree to aTbi-
trate, and with the approval of both
countries.
War with England was long a
trump card in American politics, but

Protection and Foreign Commerce.

The Springfield Republican tried
recently to demonstrate that protect
ion was running our foreign COM
merce, and only succeeded in show
ing that the annual average of our
foreign trade in the years $4,000
under a Free Trade Tariff SOTO, 1928,
600, or $40. 90 per capita, and that
during the period $4,000, under
high protection, the average was ST,
455,62o 900, or S24.3o per capa.
The FreeTrader seems totally in
capable of comprehending how this
can be. He sits in his silent sanCtum
far removed from the rude industrial
throng, and reasons thus:"A protect
i've tariff curtails imports of foreign
goods. Hence the aggregate of i'm
ports and exports must be diminished
in proportion. I care nothing about
your facts or figures. My reason
tells me that my position is sound,
and vulgar statistical reports, de-
scriptive of unesthetic bales, boxes
and barrels shall not shake down my
theory.
He cannot see that before we buy
from other countries we must have
the money to pay for our purchases,
Why does not Ireland, which has no
restrictive tariff, import more than it
does? A glance at the impoverished
Irish tenant farmer, and the still
more impoverished Irish laborer,
solves the riddle. Put more money
andinto the pockets ofthese Irishmen
their purchases from abroad would
grow in spite of any tariff. So with
the people of the United States. They
had become so impoverished under
the free trade tariff before the war

wheat abroad. You reason that our
additional purchases from abroad
will increase the consumptive capac-
ity of foreign countries, and in this
way will create a greater demand
for American food products. Letus
examine this notion carefully.
When you turn a British working
man into a consumer of wheat by
setting him at work making goods
for the American market, do not
think that yon have turned him into
"a consumer Of American wheat.
Statistics show that such a one
buys on the average only four Or five
dollars wsrth-not of American
wheat but of all kinds of American
agricultural products These goods
which he makes in England when
imported into this country, prevent
the employment of an American
workingman, at making similar
goods who with his family would
consume several hundred dollars
worth of American farm products.
Besides, your policy be disadvant-
ageous to the farmer in another way.
Men must live somehow. The work
ingman who is to be driven from
making manufactured goods is no
exception. He will cast about for
other employment, and in getting it
will probably displace a brother work
ingman whe, in turn, will seek for
employment, only to displace some
one else before he can get It. Every
one knows what a disastrous effect
upon wages such searching for en-
ployment must have. But let US not
turn aside from our investigation of
the effect on the farmer.
Displacement Of labor in the man
ufacturing industries must ultimate
ly result in some of the laborers be-
ing forced on to the land for liv-
ing. That is, in addition to curtail-
ing the market for wheat, your poll
cy would increase the number of
wheat growers. Overproduction is
the curse of American agriculture,
and unless the American farmer has
lost his proverbial good sense you
will fail to infict upon him policy
that would thus doubly aggravate
his existing difficulties. American

The sentiment now existing among
Democrats may be judged by the
action Of Representative Enloe, Of
Tennessee, who has introduced a
resolution in the House reciting the
action Of the British Government
and declaring that this action is in
derogation of the dignity of the
United States, and providing that q
copy Of this resolution shall be sent
to the British Government. Gener-
al Hooker, one of the oldest Demo
cratic members Of the House Com
mittee on Foreign Affairs, says:
"Mr, Blaine will come out all right.
| have great confidence in him. j
differ with him in politics, but have
great confidence in his ability to
manage anything he undertakes"
The House Committee on the
Worlds Fair have agreed upon re-
port which favors more care in the
expenditure of money by the com
mission and a reduction in the num-
Der as we'll as the salaries Of the en-
ployes. Everything in connection
with the exposition is moving along
nicely and points to a general sue
cess.
Postmaster General Wanamaker
has, at the direction Of the president
abolished the Post Office at Cathar-

he was compelled to under the pres

There is an interesting rumor here
that the pins are being set up to

WASHINGTON LETTER.

This is certainly the era of politi-
cal sensations, and this week has
produced two, the influence Of
which will be felt for many a day in
this country; and mayhap in Others
closely related to US in business.
The first was the attempt of Great
Britain, after having been fairly out
witted in diplomacy by Mr.. Blaine,
to use our Supreme Court for the
purpose Of opposing the executive
branch of our government, pro-
ceeding unparalleled and without
precedent in the international diplo-
matte annals of the world; and the
second was the passage of the free
silver coinage bill as a substitute for
the Senate Financial bill, in spite of
the determined efforts of Senators
Sherman, Allison, Evarts, Morrill,,
Aldrich and others, whose financial
sagacity has moulded the policy Of
the Republican party on money mat
tiers for more than decade.
It was evident several days ago
that silver was on top in the Senate,
and after the speech of Senator In
gals in favor of free coinage, which
was in many respects the ablest and
most brilliant ever delivered by that
extraordinarily brilliant man, no
power on earth could have stemmed
the tide. It was all in vain that
Senator German, the Democratic
leader, who probably regretted when
too late the part he and many mem.
bers of his party had taken in bring
ing about the present situation, at
tempted to stem the silver flood by
proposing an amendment which
would result in shutting out silver
produced in foreign countries. The
die was cast, and, as far as the Sen
ate can compel it to do SO, this coun-
try has thrown down the gauntlet to
the entire financial world, and pro-
poses to make silver the equal Of
gold in every respect in this country,
whatever may be the consequences.
Mr.. Blaine has a right to feel
proud of the sentiment which the
action of the British Government, in
attempting to ignore the executive
branch Of this Government by ap-
pealing to the United States Su
preme Court for help, has evoked.
It was the one thing needed to solid
ify American sentiment in support of
the stand taken by this administra
ton. To-day Congress is practical
ly unit in support of Mr.. Blaine,
whereas there had been disposition
previously among Democrats to sheer
at Mr.. Blaine's methods of conduct

Philosophy Of Increasing Imports IN
Order to Sell to Foreigners.


The "Reformer continually harps
upon the imposslbility Of selling
more Of our wheat, corn and meat
to England unless we buy more cot
ten cloth, wooleas and hardware
from England He therefore adv0-
Gates a reduction in the duty on
these things SO that more of them
will be imported His reason for
advocating this policy is that the
American farmer will then find a
more extended market abroad. Let
us talk with you a bit on this sub
ject, Mr.. Reformer.
OF course you will admit that if
we import goods they will not be
made here. The men employed in
making them under our present tar
if must 60 at something else. For
eign workmen, on the other hand,
will receive additional employment
in making goods for our increased
purchases. You must acknowledge
that this arrangement is more favor
able to foreign than to American la
Dor. But we also remember that
you expect your policy to more than
make up for this immediate draw
back, in benefits to the farmer to
come from extended foreign mar
kets for his produce. We shall try
to be fair with you and shall give
your position on this point respect
full and candid consideration.
If you believe that the mere fact
of our buying more Of English mill
owners will in itself induce English
grain merchants to buy more Amer
lean wheat, you are laboring under
a delusion. The grain merchant has
very little sentiment about him and
gets his wheat where he can get it
the cheapest. You have only to
glance at the record of England's
purchases of wheat in recent years
TO be convinced of this. Russia has
an almost prohibitive tariff, is an old
and always hated enemy of England
and buys only one-sixth as much
from England as we do; yet to-day
Russian wheat is in undisputed con-
troll of the English market, In 1889
according to the Statesman Year
Book" England bought only 1893
2l5o quarters of our wheat, and A.,
264,325 quarters from Russia.
These facts ought to convince you
that it is price alone which deter
mines the grain merchants pur-
chases, and that the only hope
American farmers can have of sell
ing more wheat to England is to sell
it more cheaply than the Russian Of
fers his wheat. You cannot dodge
this conclusion.
We apprehend, however, that your
central thought is that the farmer
need not depend on mere sentiment
for increased sales of American

Do Not Depend on Ore rrodust.

The farmer is certainly foolish in putt ting his eggs all in one basket; his de- pendence all on one thing or crop. It is true that specialists in stock growing, or breeding, often succeed, but it is certainly not as safe as giving about equal shares and care to most of the staples. The large stock feeder, for in- stance, who puts all his coin into stock at cents, then after feeding six months can get only cents, Is sadly left. We knew a man who planted ten acres in hops, during furry in high prices, and before his yard came into bearing hops were down to and 8 cents and remained so three years. He determined to dig up his yard, we begged him not to; dig it up he did, and the next season hops brought GO cents and soon ran up to $l.20. Thus he lost a little fortune by not having grit and backbone.

 The hop interest is booming again. The present good prices are setting the speculative teeth on edge, and many new yards will be planted, By the time they come into bearing the price will be down to cents again. This hop and-go-skip plan in farming is neither safe nor good farming. It is even, care ful, conservative management that gets there sure every time. The best farmer we ever knew, and who made the most money by legitimate farming without any speculative acts whatever, made no skips and jumps. He grew nearly every one of tine legitimate farm crops, regu- larly year after. year. He had fine flock of sheep, and if wool went away up high he did not increase his flock any; if it dropped away down low he did not sell his flock to the butcher, but kept right on and took the best of care of 1t.
