The old Spanish strain q peaches NJ be.
met with in almost any d the older ettIs3l
portions of Texas, particularly 6th1
gions we'll back from the fafar1 44hes.
The people would not be apt to call them
Spanish peaches, as rule, but would refer
to them merely as seedlings" Any good
peach found in those back regions, that had
not sprung from nursery, would be very
apt to be safe enough to risk. There is no
one to whom we could refer Just now, but
it may be that our articles mentioned by
our correspondent have induced many per-
SONS to save seeds Of good varieties of seed
Engs on their places. 1t so, they could con-
fer favor on him and us by informing Mr..
Gordon of the fact, provided they could
spare him some seeds.

RECIPROCITY ON TRIAL.

The Republican political organs now and
then ind an encouraging item relative to
what they call the success of the reciproc-
ity policy, in connection with the trade of
the United States and Central and South
America, They are now claiming that
statistics from San Domingo and the Span
lsh West Indies show a considerable net in
crease in the value of the exports of Ger
tain articles during the months of Septem-
Der and October last AS these statistics
are made up in the treasury department by
clerks IN the interest of the protection
lists, and the returns only partially given,
1t is difficult to determine how far they are
useful for absolute information. We no
tlce, however, that the increase referred to
Is OF no particular interest to the west, as
1t relates chiefly to such articles as sewing
machines, rosin. tar, pitch, turpentine
lumber, manufacturers of wood etc,
whilst decrease is shown in corn, naval
stores, tallow, sailed pork, butter, etc..
1t is boast of the Republicans that the
exports OF this country "under the MCKIN-
LEY act' have been largely augmented, as
though that measure had anything to do
with producing the shortage of crops in
Europe, or the extraordinary harvest in
America. And besides, the greatest in
crease in shipments has been to those coun-
tries where we have noreciprocity arrange
ments. In cotton and provisions alone the
excess in exports at the close Of the last
fiscal year was more than $40, 900, coo, very
little OF which went to countries on the
American continent. The increase in agri-
cultural products alone was SIG, 000 900 in
August last, or almost half of the total in
crease for twelve months.
Instead of somewhat of an increase in the
trade in resin, tar, pitch and turpentine,
reciprocity should have shown a decided
bettermeut in the demand for those articles
In South America. But Germany and other
European nations have increased their de-
mand immensely, and without the benefits
of reciprocity
The fact is, the friends of the BLAINE
policy are ''too previous" with their facts
and conclusions relative to its fruits in the
short period in which is has been tried
especially urder the stimulating efforts of
the state department, and the natural dis
position to experiment with it. But the
only safe way to calculate is by comparison
Of effects where it prevails and where it
does not.

MR. GLANDS SILVER BILL.

Mr.. BLAND, of Missouri, has announced
that he will introduce in the House of Rec
resentatives after the holidays bill to take
the place of the silver law repealed at the
last session. The act that was repealed
was PISSED in 1878 aud authorized the coin
age of from two to four million dollars
per month. This was a great victory for
the monomettal!ists, who have always been
hostile 10 the coinage of silver dollars
and who had attempted at every session
of Congress 10 have the BLAND law
repealed. 1t was passed in the teeth
of their stubborn opposition. 1t was
passed over the veto of President
Hayes, and in spite of the remonstrances
of JOIN SHERMAN, the secretary
of the treasury. 1t did a world of good
too. 1t gave TO the country 1870. GOO. 600 in
standard silver dollars, which, being full
legal tenoer for all debts, public and pri-
vate saved the debtor class of the peopIe
from the hardship of paying their obliga
tons in gold, or gold values.

cans was to poll as heavy vote as possible
that good showing might be made at
Washington.
1 A remarkable change Of public sentiment
has taken place in the state. The admins
tratlon has not commended itself to the
people, and good many men who voted
the Republican ticket have for some time
been openly denouncing the party, while
some of the newspapers which advocated
the Republican cause in 1890 are now OPP
posing the party. True, such turncoat
newspapers do not carry much influence
in the community, but they have
some weight and that will be thrown on
the side of Democracy. 1t is well under
stood that the Republican party is divided
into factions, geographically as we'll as re-
gardlng men and measures North Idaho
is more than ever jealous of the SOUTH and
would like to punish the DUBOIS and
SHoUP people who insist upon running"
things in their own way, as if the party
belonged to them. Then there is the
CLAeETT faction, which is insignificant, to
be sure, but what it lacks in numbers it
makes up in the intensity of its opposition
to the bosses, and its influence is certain to
run against the crowd which has had
things its own way so long. 1t will be
stormy year for Repu blicans in Idaho, and
If the Democrats do not take advantage of
the situation to recover their heritage it
will be because they are lacking in politi-
cal wisdom.
HE HERALD is an interested observer of
TO in,
that if the Democrats will unite and work
under wise direction for the good of the
party rather than for the advancement of
Individual interests, the new state will be
redeemed in 1892.

HELP FOR RUSSIA.

The stories which reached this country a
few days ago, saying the Car was op-
posed to the acceptance of assistance from
the outside for his starving subjects. and
that contributions of grain sent from other
countries would not be permitted to enter
Russia, were not to be believed The Gar
may be harsh and cruel ruler, governing
with an iron hand and holding his people
IN slavery, but it Is unreasonable that he
should desire the death by starvation of
shy of his subjects. Even if the humane
sentiment were not largely developed in
him and it would not give offense to his
nature to see his people suffer and die he
would yet take measures to save their
lives, for it is an increase of population, as
well as an extension OF territorial domain.
which the autocrat desires.
The Russian charge d'affaires at Wash
ington refutes The lnhuman suggestion
referred to above. In reply to a letter ask
ing for information regarding the famine
and whether movement for help is neces-
sary, says that the people of twelve prov
inces, containing over twenty million pop-
ulatlon, are starving and that assistance
would be much appreciated. That settles
an ugly feature of the business and il
should also determine the duty of the
American people in the premises. The
United States have been abundantly
blessed this year in those things which the
Russians most need. This country has
gathered the most generous crops ever
harvested and from It's abundance can
spare enough to save the lives of some mil
lions or those starving people who cannot
buy our surplus grain. Humanity suggests

IDAHO POLITICS.

Our friends, the Democrats, up in Idaho
should "get themselves together at once
and prepare for campaign with the expec-
tation and determination of rescuing the
state from the control of the enemy. We
are fully aware of the apparent odds
against the Democracy. The machinery is
all in the hands of the Republicans. who
also manipulate the patronage, both federal
and local. 1t is also true that at the nolls
the Republicans have majority, since one
third of the citizens and these LARGELY Dem
ocrats, cannot vote by reason of the opera

that if the Idaho Democrats will

WHEN THE MCKINLEY bill was in Con-
gress its advocates claimed that it's benefits
would come largely to the farmers, a class
who had heretofore not been helped bv
legislation On the stump this same plea
in behalf of the American agricultnrst
was put forth. The reports show that
during the past ten months the decrease in
the exports of meat, butter and cheese
amounted to ten million dollars. and of
indian corn to twenty millions, the Nc
kINLEY bill being in force all the time.
The explanation is that if we refuse to
admit the products of other Countries
which We practically do by imposing
upon them at our entry ports prohibitorv
tax-other countries will not buy our pro-
ducts. Europeans will buy what thew
need from those who will accept European
goods at fair prices in payment. The
