The Philadelphia Press, Of recent date,
mas a cartoon supposed to depict the
troubles experienced by southern negroes in
their laudable efforts to vote the republican
ticket. The picture shows a polling booth
over which has been erected the sign, mo
niggers can vote.n In front Of the booth
stands tree, from one limb OF which swing
three negroes and from another limb two,
while on the ground at the foot of the tree
four blacks lie writhing In various stages
OF agony from the effects of gunshot
wounds. The perpetrators Of this multiple
outrage are three white men, and very poor
looking specimens at that, who stand Off
and view their work with apparent salts
faction. The cartoon is ridiculous, of
course, but it fairly represents the impress
sions relative to the south that are being
drilled into the heads OF northern people by
the INSCRIPTIONS partisan republican press.

That is what Miss Marie Barnum says she

place, and one which was Bret Hartish m
every detail, was the divine service held IN
Watrous and Bannigau's gambling saloon.
The hall is very long one, with a saloon
facing the street, and Keno tables and over
dozen other games in the gambling room
beyond. Wien the doors between the two
rooms are held back they make a very large
hall. A clergyman asked Watrous II he could
have the use Of the gambling hall on Sum
day night. The house was making about
$500 an hour, and Watrous calculated
that half an hour could be as much as he
could afford toward the collection. He
mounted a chair and said: Boys, this
gentleman wants to make few remarks TO
you Of a religious nature All the games
at that end Of the hall will stop, and you
want to keep still"
The clergyman stood on the platform OF
the keno outfit, and the greater part of the
men took seats around 1t, toying with The
marking cards scattered over the table in
front Of them, while the men in the saloon
crowded the doorway from the swinging
doors to the bar, and looked on with Curl
GUS and amused faces. At the back Of the
room the roulette wheel clicked and the
ball rolled. The men in this part of the
room who were playing lowered their
voices, but above the voice of the preacher
one could hear the cliuking OF the silver and
the chips, and the voice of the boy at the
wheel calling, seventeen and Dlack, ana
twenty eight and black again and-keep

There Is a stove In the middle of the hall
and two electric lights; the men were
crowded closely around this stove, and the
lamps shone through the smoke on their
tanned upturned faces and on the white ex-
cited face of the preacher above them.
There was the most excellent order. and the
collection was very large. Iasked Watrous

The results Of the state census of New

The exhibit shows an increase in population
over the federal census of 1890 Of 4S5, TO,
making the total OF the state enumeration
6,4S3, 632. The total alien population is
720, COS, about one-ninth Of the whole num-
Der of inhabitants. The alien population
of New York city is 377 us. The New
York Times suggests that the figures con-
corning the alien population ara not cor
rect, and says that the chances are that the
enumerators counted as aliens large num-
bers of people who, while foreign born, are
naturalized citizens.

sunhowers as a Crop.

While southern farmers are considering
the advisability Of dlversifying their crops
and reducing aoreages in cotton it might be
worth their while to look into the merits of
the sunfower. II is, indeed, valuable
plant, for 1t furnishes material for a num-
Der Of useful articles. 1t is something like
the Chicago steer, which supplies meat to
the butcher, hide to the tanner, hoofs to the
gluemaker, horns to the maker Of knife
handles. bones to the button factory and
marrow to the manufacturer Of ''pure bear
oil" for the L.aIr. 1he sunfower furnishes
Ell edible seed, a first-class quality Of table
oil, good fire wood, a fair percentage of pot
ash, large output of fodder for stock, and
the roots are good fertilizer.
Mr.. j. M. Crawford, our consul general at
st. Petersburg, in a recent report. gives an
account of the extent Of the cultivation and
Importance Of the sunnower IN Russia,
where three years ago nearly 100000 acres
were devoted to it. The smaller seeds OF
the flower are sent TO the oil mills, where
they are treated on the same principle as
cotton seed in this country. With careful
manipulation the oil is pronounced as
wholesome and fine favored as the best
French olive oil for table use. The cake,
after the oil Is taken out, is used for stock
feed, as is cotton seed cake.
The larger seeds are dried and
eaten raw, something like peanuts; their
taste is said to be very pleasant, and they
are readily digested. After the flowers are
gathered the stalks are stripped of their
~ nj Dc nd
the leaves make an excellent fodder. The
stalks are then dried and tied in small com
pact bundles for fuel. One thou-
sand pounds of these dried stalks
yield hfty-seven pounds Of ashes, and 900
pounds Of ashes yield $50 pounds OF the best
potash. The roots are left in the ground,
and when "plowed In" furnish almost a
sufficient quantity Of fertilizing agents for
cereal crop. A ton to the acre is the esti-
mated amount Of fertilizer in the roots.
When composted the stalks and leaves from
one acre will make sufficient manure for
five or six acres.
In Russia. with poor farming utensils IN
ferior aud crude machinery for oil making
and not very high order Of intelligence in
the farming districts. the sunfowsr crop is
regarded a profitable one. The average
yield of seed to the acre is 1850 pounds,
which sell for Il cents per pound, making
about $50 per acre for the seeds. In the
United States, with the best implements,
economic oil making machinery and the
most Intelligent farmers on earth the profit
would be much greater.

Russia some suggestions regarding cotton

Chinese Exclusion.

A difference of opinion has arisen IN the
Senate as TO the time of expiration Of the
Chinese exclusion law. Senator Sherman
chairman of the committee on foreign rela-
tions, holds that the act will not expire until
July 5. 1894 and Senator Teller, of the
judiciary committee, is OF the same opin.
ion. On the other hand, Senator Dolph.
who reported the Chinese bill now before
the Senate, disagrees "in toto and emphati-
cally" with Senators Sherman and Teller.
aud says the act will expire May 6, 1892.
This was the impression that obtained in the
House when the Geary bill was rushed
through.
The doubt in the matter arises through
the wording of the act amending the
original law, passed July 5. 1884. The first
section of the amending act provides that
the first section OF the original act be
amended to read as follows: From and
after the passage Of the act, and until the
expiration of ten years next after the pas
sage Of this act, the coming of Chinese la
borers to this country be and hereby is
suspended" The only change made IN the
old law by the amendment in this section is
the stricking out of the words, from and
after the expiration OF ninety days" which
time of grace was allowed to Chinese i'm
migrants by the original bill.
The amending act was passed in 1884, the
original act in 1882. The question is, Does
the expression. ten years after the pas
sage of this act )" in the amended law, run
from the passage Of the amended law, or
does it refer back and read into the original
acts
Senator Sherman's position is that the
passage of the amending act had the effect
of making new law of the old act, dating
from the passage Of the amendment. And
that would appear to be the spirit Of the
amendment. Otherwise, why should the
amendment be passed at alll Itonly struck
out the ninety days" provision, which was
unnecessary il the old act was not to be su-
perseded. and which also was not needed in
a new act, inasmuch as the operations Of the
old act had given sufficient warning.
