farmers whose returns come but o nee

to act. For this reason it will prob

THE FRUIT RATES TO BOsTON-G. F.
Mead presided at a meeting of the
Boston fruit and Produce Exchange
last Wednesday. A letter from the
peach growers lOf Chestertown Mary
land, was read. 1t asked for coopera-
ton in the attempt to recover an excess
charged by the railroad over the rate
fixed by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission. G. F. Mead and w. L. Knox
were appointed commission to con-
slider action with growers of other
sections. The charge in the case of
the Pennsylvania railroad alone
amounts to Is per cent, and the total
on this road alone is $4,000. All roads
east of New York have made the fixed
reduction at saving of S33 900, and if
the Pennsylvania is brought into line,
the reduction will amount to $4,000.

ditiOnally a call to become the pastor

KEEP THEM OUT.

We hope and believe that the New Or
leans incident and the diplomatic proceed
ings growing out of it will result in radi-
cal change in our immigration laws, if not
in the naturalization statutes. That such
change is demanded everybody comedies.
That it was not made long ago is due to the
fact that we have not yet outgrown certain
Humanitarian ideas OR sentiments which
were prominent in the early days of the
republic, among them the one that this
should forever be the home for the
oppressed and downtrodden of all races
and nations. That sentiment is noble, but
it ought to be qualified by making dis
tinction between the politically oppressed
and downtrodden, and the worthless, the
criminal people who are disliked in their own
countries on account of their worthless
ness and their criminalities.. There
will never come time, it is
hoped, when the United States
will refuse a welcome to good people who
prefer our kind of government to that I'M
der which they have lived. So far we
trust that the sentiment held and expressed
by the fathers of the rep ublic will forever
commune Win Americans.
But there should come an end to this in
discriminate immigration which has filled
oul great cities with foreigners of the
lowe and criminal classes, and which for
years has been amenace to the government
! OF some Of the states. When an organized
band of Italian asSassins can waylay and
murder the chief of police of one of our
t,f ait
can bride iuries to acquit them, and when
their countrymen by the thousands
can assemble in mas meetings and
denouuce the government which has
afforded them protection, we suggest
that it is time to declare that the scoundrels
shall not abide on American soil. When
italian newspapers printed in this country
call upon the mother government to send
war ships to protect Italian thieves and
murderers who eprofessed allegiance to
the United States, it is time to tell those
editors to go and take their impudent papers
with them. The New Orleans affair has
impressed it upon the public that we want
mighty little immigration from Italy, fol-
while thousands of Italians have sworr
allegiance to the republic, almost without
exception they are denouncing the govern
ment and calling upon Italy to make wal
upon the nation of their adoption. Thes
thus show how little they value the citizen
, ship which has generously been conferred
upon them.
The Congressman who will introduce
bill which will prevent the landing of any
foreigner who cannot present verified
certificate of good character will serve hi
countrymen well.

GROWS WEAKER.

Three months ago the organ of Liberal
ism justified continuation of further leg
islation against the Mormons on this
ground
And they have not given up polygamy and
have no intention Of doing SO. Men and women
are entering into that relation every day.
Tribune January IS.
The HERALD promptly branded the
Liberal organ as a liar and challenged it to
prove its assertion, for in one place it as
serted that its editor knew of certain po-
lygamous marriages. The organ kept quiet
on that topic for three months, and then
the cowardIy thing said:
We beliere polygamous marriages are going
on continually, Tribune March 81.
Again we say that the Liberal organ lies
it believes no such thing; it knows the
very opposite with as much certainty as il
knows any other fact not susceptible Of
direct proof, and is only afraid that every
one will know it before it can secure the
political destruction of the Mormon people

The New JERSEY legislature which ad-
journed the other day answered the histo-
rlc query, what are we here for!" to the
entire satisfaction of that distinguished
Texan, the Honorable DANIEL WEBSTER
FLANAGAN. The Democrats had good
working majority and they put IN the sixty
days in seeing to it that Jersey shall no
longer be doubtful in politics. Every state
and local Office within the reach Of the leg
islature was captured by Democrats. The
congressional districts were carefully re-
arranged in such way that the Democrats
will have safe majorities in six out of the
eight, and a good fighting chance in the
other two. There was also redistricting
for legislative purposes so that the Demo
Gratis may safely count on satisfactory
majority on joint ballot for many years to
come. As matter of course the Repub
licans are mad. but they ought not to COM
plain for the principal plank in their plat
form is that to the vanquished do not be-
long the spoils.

rye. Could anything be more unreason-
ably "bearlsh?" When there is a sur
plus no one pretends that it will be fritz
tered away In wasteful consumption;
but when there is a deficiency 1t is
coolly wiped of by assuming a dimin-
ished consumption. 1t is utterly i'm
probable that there will be diminished
consumption Of wheat and rye In Russia
equal to the enormous deficiency in rye.
Less rye will necessarily be eaten, but
more wheat, and the wheat crop is also
very short one. The German govern
ment have ordered the use Of wheat for
bread for the army. Besides, it Is mis-
leading to state that the deficiency OF
rye is chiefly in Russia, as the
crop is very short one in every coun-
try in Europe which grows it at all ex-
tenSively. In Germany, for example,
even the opponents Of the demand for
the abolition Of the grain duties admit
that the rye crop is about 20 per cent,
below average. Moreover, the potato
crops are turning out badly, which will
necesSitate an increased use of grain.
Again, to say, as the Price Current says,
that the worlds production OF wheat is
practically equal to years consump-
tiOn is altogether contrary to evidence.
Last year there was deficiency, as is
proved by the diminished reserve stocks,
and this year the European wheat crop
is more than 2OO,O9OO0O bushels less
than IL was last year. Can the Price
Current show so much extra in the rest
Of the world? think not, nor anything
like such quantity. But this is not
all, for we must allow for the still great
er deficiency of rye.

BRIDGEPORT.

A few days ago, your reporter over
heard very interesting conversation
between prominent young Bridgeport
Republican and a COlerain Demo
crat. The Colerain gentleman, think
ing it not out of place to ask his
opinion on a few of the leading issues in
Ohio politics this fall, gave him the fol-
lowing nuts to crack, to see just how
well informed the average aspirant is,
on the issues Of the day.
1. Are you in favor OF double stan
dard, or are you in favor OF free and un-
limited coinage of silver?
>. What is your opinion of the Buch-
anon bill?
II the Buchanon bill should be pass
ed, by the next legislature, what effect
would that have on the Presidential
election?
8. Are you in favor Of Foraker, Eos
ter or Sherman for the Senate?
What is your opinion OF our pres
ent system of taxation? Are you in ia
vor OF increasing the value of farm
lands or city property; of tariff on the
necessities or luxuries of life?
5. Did increasing the tariff on wool
lower the price2
6. What mark would you make and
where on the ticket to vote against one
man only?
To all OF these questions the gentle
man from Bridgeport sang dumb and
looked as If he had never heard of the
Buchanon bill, double standard or free
and unlimited coinage or how to vote a
ticket under the new law. The
Colerain gentleman thought it would
pay the Republicans to open a school
here 20 instruct the Bridgeport politi-
clans on some Of the issues Of the day.
