OF course there will be differences of
opinion among the members of today's
convention as to whom it is best to ask
the state convention to elect as a dele
gate to the national convention. But
all these little differences should be set
tied absolutely and amicably before the
convention adjourns. Whatcom
county is fairly entitled to name one
of the delegates, but if its claims are
not presented by a united delegation
there is little hope of their recognition.

The glory of Japan-that its people
never lose their temper-seems to be de-
parting. Even Japanese good nature is
not proof against the strain of popular
elections Though the general political
campaign now on is only the second one
since the adoption Of the new constitu-
ton in February, 1889, yet there have
been fist fights, rioting and even kill
ings- This is like our republic, in which
men are sometimes killed at primaries.
Well, elections are enough to make any
body mad, especially when they go the
wrong way. Japan is now tasting the
sweets Of liberty and enlightenment.
But it is pity, thousand pities, if the
famous good nature of the Japs will
have to go along with oriental despot-
ism

The appalling restitution in Russia
has led to the compilation of some in
teresting statistics on the subject of
famines. 1t has been estimated that,
since the beginning of written history,
there have been about $50 distressing
famines. In 1854 the overflow of the
Nile having failed for seven successive
years, there was a terrible famine in
Egypt which lasted several years. and
was followed by pestilence. England
was desolated by famines i'm 1869 and
ll5S. In 1874, famine i'm India ex-
tended over all Hindustan. In 1347
numbers of Italians died by absolute
starvation. At the great famine which
occurred in India i'm 1870, 5000, 900
died of hunger. There were also great
Indian famines in 1859 and 1872. In
1872 Ireland witnessed the most heart
rending scenes, owing to the failure Of
the potato crop, and the same dreadful
calamity was repeated i'm 1S47. In 1866
there was a famine in Bengal, i'm 1870
one in Siam, i'm 1854 and 1877 famines
in India, and one in China also in the
last-named year.

that they have passed northward. Above
Upernavik they will begin to look in
earnest for Peary. There are three points
where news of him or he himself may
be found. The first is Cape York, the
second Conical Rock, the third Wos-

him at one of these points they will

Mr.. Pullman on Tipping.

The founder and owner Of the Pull
man sleeping car system, Mr. George
Pullman, declares there is no sense or
reason in tipping sleeping car porters,
He himself is dead against it. They are
well paid for their services on his cars,
he says, and there is no reason why pas
sengers should tax themselves extra like
that Besides it tends to demoralize the
service and make persons who should be
men creatures alternately cringing and
inselent.
The Washington Post quotes with ap-
prevail Mr.. Pullman's declaration, but
adds the following for his serious con-
sideration:
This sounds very nice, Mr.. Pullman. but
what is TO become Of the passenger who makes
80 bold as to attempt TO act on your sugges-
tiens7 What action has the Pullman company
taken to protect the would be reformer from

The following remedy has been found
superior to others tried at the expert
mental farms in Manitoba and the ter
ritories, as well as by many of the farm
ers in the Canadian and American north
west: Take one pound of bluestone or
sulphate of copper, dissolve in eight or
ten quarts of water for eight bushels of
wheat. Spread the wheat on the floor
or in o wagon box; with a whisk or
broom sprinkle well; then turn with the
scoop and sprinkle again until every por-
ton has been thoroughly moistened,
which will use the amount of water
specified. Now dry lime may be sifted
on the seed to facilitate drying. The
lime judiciously used will not be lost,
as it will go TO the soil, where 1t is valu-
able plant food. Some farmers use q
large vat where much seed Is to be pre-
pared, placing the seed in a coarse sack
that will admit water readily, and i'm
mersing it in the solution for fow min
utes. This is undoubtedly the better
method where circumstances will admit
of its adoption. Where lime is used to
absorb the moisture the seed must be
thoroughly dried before using or diff
