THE FARMERS UNDERSTAND 1T.

Democratic journals all along the line
are affecting to make light of the recently
effected reciprocity arrangement between
this country and Brazil. Conceding that
il viii at once increase our exports to that
country to at least SIS. 10000 instead Of
the 100000 total which We exported
thither in 1880. they attempt to belittle it,
and in sneering tones inquire. "What
does tritie of sixteen millions amount TO
as an addition TO the great volume of this
country's foreign commerce."
Evidently these quidnuncs have given
but little heed 10 the difference between a
surplus and deficit in their relation TO a
nations produetiveness and commerce.
Intelligent farmers, at all events. are
keenly alive to the difference. With no
foreign demand, and production in excess
of the quantity required 10 supply the
home market, the farmer is at the mercy
of the home buyer, and the price of his
whole crop takes a tumble.

home market Or former requirements, and

The letter of Grover Cleveland to the Re-
form Clubs anti-silver meeting at Cooper
Union Wednesday night leaves the Demo-
cratic party confronted by dilemma with
two well-defned and very sharp horns. 1t
must be admitted that the letter addition
ally dcmonstrates-which was unneces-
sary-that the man is highly endowed with
the courage of stubbornness. And it is no
less conclusive than was his famous mes
sage of 1887 that his lack Of judgment is on
par with his stolidity.
When he said that "the greatest perils
would be initiated by the adoption of the
scheme embraced in the measure now pend
ing in congress for unlimited coinage of sill
yer at our mints," he was fully aware that
all but one-Gray of the Demo-
Gratis in the Senate had given their sup
port to that scheme, and that it is sup
ported by all but small minority of the
Democrats in the lower house, and the ma
jority even object to modifying it to the
extent of discriminating against foreign
silver, as the Republicans desire.
1t is not open to dispute that up to this

the favorite of his party for their standard
bearer in the presidential campaign of
1892. But after this his latest utterance
it would be a screaming farce to profess
friendship for silver with Cleveland as
their nominee. 1t is clear that they must
drop silver or drop Cleveland. To Udrsue
the former course would be an endorse
ment of Cleveland's unequivocal rebuke to
German, Vest, Carlisle and their brethren
in the Senate, and to Crisp, Springer,
Bland, the Breckenridges and their breth-
ern in the House, and to a majority of the
leading Democratic newspapers of the
country
As the matter stands, even if the silver
question should be eliminated as an issue
of the campaign, the Democratic leaders
in congress cannot without stultifying
themselves consent to or accept the NOM
ination of Cleveland. He has bowed down
before the golden calf and must take the
consequences.
And now comes the scramble and the
hunt for a clew that may lead them out
of their labyrinth of CONSERVATION. Which
is not the business of the Republican press

of sailed fish. He says the South Alaska can
neries were not in Cooks Inlet combination to
curtail the pack, and put up all the fish that
came to them. The ten or twelve canneries do
ing business in his neighborhood will not be in
creased by any new ones this year, and all look
for busy season. Prospecting is being done
along the coast as far down as the British Col
umbia border, and the whole country
back from the sea il said to be a
mass of rich quartz. The Indians tell of
wonderful mines of gold in the interior, but,
like the generality of their race, are too lazy to
go in for mining, while the mountainous min
eral district is, as yet, almost inaccessible to
white men. Captain Orr and his partner made
what they thought was q rich strike, about ten
miles from Duncan's cannery, few months
ago. 1t PANIED out Sc to IS to the ton at first,
but, as they went down, 1t dwindled to s. ton,
and here they dropped it. Mr. Miller expects to
see Northern British Columbia and Southern
Alaska materially developed during the next
two or three years. He says the climate is sec
ond to none, and the latent resources are won
derfully rich.

THE TWO MYSTERIES.

and still;
The folded hands. the awful calm, the cheeks 90
pale and chill,
The lids that will not lift again, though we may
call and call,
The strange white solitude of peace that settles
over all.
We know not what it means. dear, this desolate
heart pain,
The dread to take our daily way, and walk In it
again.
weknow not to what sphere the loved who leave
US go,
Nor Why we're left to wander still. nor why we
do not know.
But this we know: Our loved and lost, If they
should come this day
Should come and ask US, What Is life? not one
OF US could say.
Life is mystery as deep as death can ever be;
Yet, O, how sweet IL Is TO Us, this life We live
and seel
Then might they say, those vanished ones ana
blessed Is the thought,
So death is sweet 70 us, beloved, though we may
tell you naught
wemay not tell Tito the quick, this mystery of
death;
Ye may not tell it if ye would, the mystery of
breath
The child that enters life comes not with krowl-
edge or intent,
So those who enter death must go as little chill
Nothing is known, but l believe that God is over
head:
And as life 10 to the living 30 death is to the
dead.

Last Sundays Salt Lake Tribune takes
pressed in the East in respect to the kill
ing of Indian women and children in the
fight at Wounded Knee. ''The strangest
thing in the world" it says, sis the atti-
tude of the humanitarians of the East" on
that subject. And it presents, as the ac-
tual facts of the case: 'Indian warriors
with women and children; the soldiers are
trying to get them back to the reservation;
all at once, in the twinkling of an eye,
those Indians throw off their blankets, be-
gin shooting at the soldiers; the soldiers.
in defense of their lives, shoot back; they
shoot at anything that is an Indian-they
would be precious fools if they did not"
The Tribune follows this up with claim
that the best way to cure these Eastern
people of their humanitarianism would be
to locate them on a Dakota ranch, subject
them to an Indian attack, and see whether
in their peril they would take time to dis
tinguish between Indian men, women and
children in defending themselves. 1t
winds up by claiming that these Indian
troubles are chargeable to the government
in not fulfilling its treaty stipuIations with
the sayages.
The article is a congeries of inaccuracies,
and moreover conveys an implication that
is libellous of Western sentiment Dis
patches published in the Tribune, in COM
mon with all other leading newspapers,
show that the indiscriminate butchery did
not close with the scene above described
For several days and nights after the
actual engagement the squaws and pa
poosss were followed and shot down along
the hillsides and in the ravines, and the
crippled or wounded were left to endure a
lingering death in torture.
The case of soldier in the line of duty
is not to be compared with that of border
settler defending his home against an
attack. No one fit to be soldier will be
unbalanced by excitement on the occasion
of an engagement, nor will any truly
brave man, whether soldier or settler,
shoot down defenseless women and child
rem, knowing them to be such. This is
very different from firing into town or an
armed and belligerent body in which these
are mingled. The justification of the
soldiers for their after-battle butcheries
and the pretense that alleged neglect of
treaty obligations justified the Indians,
are equally to be deprecated.
But the worst feature of the Tribune
article is the impression it is calculated to
create in the East and abroad, that the
| West is callous TO any sense of horror con-
| corning these butcheries of the feeble and
defenseless by big. brawny men wearing
| the uniforms of American soldiery. 1t is
| gross libel upon this section to claim
that the "humanitarianism" which was
shocked at the recital of these atrocities
was confined TO the East. In this portion
of the West, at least, il is not regarded as
"the greatest wonder in the world" that
such proceedings met condemnation.
| There is here sentiment which challenges
the best sentiment of the East as to
hearty condemnation alike of the Indian
treachery and the brutality of the soldiers.

REc1pRoC1rY A REALITY.
It Will Make the United States the
Ruler Of the World.
st. Paul Pioneer Press.

=
The magnitude of this departure grows upon
one, the more 1t is considered The immediate
financial gain is great 1t is estimated that the
relief to our commerce by duties abandoned
amounts to something like 100000 annually.
But this, though great, is the least important
consideration. The main thing is the turn
which this will give to the tides of commerce.
1t means not only new outlet for our products,
and new opportunities for the profitable exer-
else of our great industries, but also that the
United States is recognized as the future source
oil supply for the needs of this continent Trade
follows trade. Where q favorable market for
certain commodities il established, trade in
other commodities follows. If articles not in
cluded in the reciprocity list are admitted from
the United States only on the same terms as
from other countries, it follows that Brazil will
purchase them here rather than elsewhere. For
the great stream of trade flowing from the reci-
procity clauses will draw into itself and absorb
the smaller items OF demand and supply. If q
Brazilian merchant comes to the United States
for agricultural products and machinery, for the
bulk of what Is to be bought, it is not conceiya-
bic that he should divide his orders, and send to
Europe for the remaining articles that he needs,
whed they can be purchased here to at least
equal advantage Under the new arrangement
the whole trade OF Brazil is ours, and that at no
distant day.
Nor can the other countries South
America stand outside the pale. With the adj
vantages which this arrangement confers upon
Brazil, her sister states must seek the same mar
ket:and the same concessions, or be distanced
in the race. Reciprocity with Brazil, the great
est producer of South America, is only the FORE
runner and the guarantee of reciprocity with all
the other countries to the south Of US. 1t Is not
mutual alliance that is to be signalized now,
it is the opening of q new commercial era We
have discerned, from the beginning. the mo-
mentous meaning of American reciprocity We
have urged it as the issue that was to dwarf
and Danish the more trihing contention over our
own duties, making domestic tariffs seem In
considerable and unimportant The quick in
stinct and keen business sense of the American
people discerned the truth as soon as it was
spoken, and they rallied to the support of the
reciprocity idea with an alertness and enthusi-
asm awakened by no ordinary political issue
In the future development of reciprocity the
Republican party finds q new mission In il
our commercial interests see a new and glorious
future rising before them. On this great sue
cess the people congratulate the administration
as whole, and Mr.. Blaine, the ardent expone
of the principle, in particular. The United
States as ruler of the commercial world is not
vision, but growing reality from today.

The Beers knocked us silly at mile.
The Burman guy us lrriwaddy chills,
An Zulu impi dished us up in style:
But all we ever got from such as they
Was pop to what the Fuzzy made US swaller;
We 'eld our bloomin' own, the papers say.
But man for man the Fuzzy Knocked Us 'oller.
Then 'ere's to you, Fuzzy wuzzy, an the

When 'e's 'oppin In an ont among the bush

A happy day with Fuzzy on the rush
Will last 'ealthy Tommy for year.
So 'ere's TO you, Fuzzy wuzzy, an your

But give an takes the gospel, an wen call
