HUNDREDS ARE DYING,
Genuine Asiatic Cholera Is Claiming
Victims by the Hundreds.

HAMBURG, Aug. 23.-The ambulan-
ces of this city are insufficient in
number to meet the demands made
upon them through the outbreak of
cholera. Yesterday seventy ordnance
carriages were utilized for the convey
ance of cholera patients. Thirty-fve
persons have died of cholera. Some of
these died within an hour after being
stricken with the disease, and all the
others died within six hours.
F-,MEURG, Aug. 23.-The cholera is
chiefly prevalent in the Alstadt, or old
portion of the city, comparatively few
cases are.occurring in the Neustadt, or
new portion. Every precaution possi-
BILE is being taken by the authorities to
| localiZe the disease. A Number OF new
cases were reported today.
Newspaper reports differ widely re-
garding the number Of cases of cholera
in this city. The Nachrichten says
that so far there have been 300 cases
and 12O deaths, sixty-five deaths oc-
curing today. The patients as soon
as reported are quickly taken by spe-
cial conveyance to the hospital cholera
wards. People living in the streets
through which the conveyance passes
shut the doors and windows of their
houses until they think the danger of
contagion is past. The dead are taken
to the public mortuaries, and the
houses in which patients are found are
carefully disinfected.

Amount Exported.
Now that the wheat has passed from
the growing state to the shock, and
the stack-yard, in maHy instances, the
question of how and when best to dis
pose of it becomes somewhat serious
one. 1t is always so. The man who
is compelled to sell, by circumstances
outside his control, is about the only
one who knows what to do. AS he has
no alternative, of course, he sells his
wheat as soon as he can get it to mar
ket, no matter what the state of the
market, or what the future may be ex-
pected to develop. So far as he is con-
cerned it is useless to expect any great
reforms in the methods of disposing of
the wheat crop. Of course every man
is expected to act for himself in affairs
of this kind. Matters of advice may
pass from one neighbor to another,
but no man or set Of men can under
take to say for farmers that now is the
time to sell, nor that now is the time
to hold. If all make an honest effort
to inform themselves as to the situa-
tion, and use their intelligence to good
account, it is not likely that great
many will go far wrong. A thing is
often said to be ..sas good as old wheat
in the bin'' when we mean to express
the idea that it has a ready cash value.
1t is a very apt figure, too. Wheat is
something that usually has

in the year than at the time it comes

The couaty democracy has duty
to performs next Saturday that can
not be shiEked. 1t is the selection
of strong ticket and efficient Off
GERS. Heretofore it has been the
recognized policy of both parties
that if a mas, was strong in his own
locality and would bring strength
to the ticket he was put up for some
important office, without any other
qualification for the position. The
independents in their late oonven-
ton followed this policy, and, we
believe, made;a grave mistake. In
the past four years conditions have
changed. County offices have be-
come important offices and the peo-
pie give great deal more attention
to the man and his qualifications
and fitness for the office to which
he aspires than they give to the
party or ticket. The democratic
convention recognized this growing
sentiment two years ago and hon
estly endeavored to meet its require
ments, and in the main proved
successful. The same condition
exists this year and on = larger scale.
The people will demand s'qualifca-
ton for Office" in the candidate and
and the convention cannet afford to
overlook the demand.

known. Look at the facts in the case.
And don't sell any wheat, unless COM
PEELED to do so, below the cost of pro-
duction. That is an unnatural state
of affairs and does not continue to
exist always, nor for any great length
OF time. During the year ending June
3Oth we exported 226,6O5,3S1 bushels,
or more than one-third the aggregate
yield for 1891 in the United States. 1t
has been noted also that there had
been steady falling off in the export
price from 1878 down to 1890. From
the latter date there has been an up
ward tendency and there is good ground
for faith that this thing is to continue
yet awhile. 1t is now loosely estimated
that the present wheat crop will fall
considerably short of last years crop.
Under conditions like these we are al
ways 10th to see the wheat pass early
from farmers hands, which takes all
possibilities away from them for future
rise In prices. Farmers who are able
to shape their affairs as they like, have
a responsibility resting upon them that
they should not evade. The good they
do themselves by such deliberations is
an aid to all other wheat growers by
distributing sales throughout the year
and keeping a stronger market.-Ne-
braska Farmer.
Remarks On the Above.
I'VE sympathize with the writer in
disliking to see farmers lose the possi-
bility of any future rise in prices. )"
Yet in long study and observation of
the course of the markets, we have not
been able to come to any other conclu-
sion than that it is not worth while for
farmers to speculate" by early selling
OR holding on The expert dealers who
make it the business of their lives to
study out future prospects, are better
able to judge of the future, and they
buy and sell on their knowledge. They
may and often do fail in their calcula-
tions, but do so far less frequently than
those inexperienced, and an average of
their total purchases and sales is usu-
ally greater or less profit, though they
frequently miss it.
The safest rule is to sell when one is
ready or needing the results depend
ing somewhat upon ones ability to
wait, and his facilities for safe storage,
insurance, etc. If in following this
rule, one misses getting the best prices,
he has the consolation that it was just
as likely to be the other way. When
one gets his grain, etc. marketed and
the money in his pocket, or paid out
where it has to go sometime, there is a
feeling of satisfaction in the thought
that so much IS safe anyway, safe
against storm and tempest, and against
revulsion in the market; and if he hap
pens to get the best price of the year,
there is great satisfaction in feeling
"well 1 hit it that time' to say nothing
of the qualification one feels when he
can prove his own good Judgment

SAVE THE TREES.

In the June number of that excellent peri
odical, the Overland Monthly, is an article
from the real-estate dealer, Thomas Magee,
on the subject of the preservation of our
forests. A little over a year ago Congress
passed an act empowering the President to
reserve timber lands on the public domain
and 10 declare them by proclamation Gov
eminent reservations. not open for promis-
cuous settlement or occupation. Under this
act the Sequoia reservation was established,
and the President had the depredations of
the sheepherders stopped in the Yosemite
reservation. 1t seems that this sound policy
should be still further carried out.
The great eOBifera Of this State which in
size. girth. beauty and usefulness are un-
surpassed in the world, extend through a
belt about 600 miles long. from Mount Shasta
at the north to the TETON Pass at the south,
by about 30 miles wide. The belt descends
the western or wet slope Of the range to a
line about 1000 feet above sea level, and ex-
tends to line on the eastern or dry slope
about five miles below the summit. Nearly
the whole of this belt is clothed with conf
fera, under whose spreading branches the
winter SHOWS are sheltered and allowed to
melt gradually, and the water sources which
supply our scaniy streams are protected
from evaporation. Unfortunately, the
ravages Of tile woodchopper and the shep-
herd. who burns e giant of the forest to
cook his breakfast, are rapidly thinning out
these noble trees, and il they are not
checked, before many generations the sum-

NATIONAL LAW OF MARRIAGE.

The House Of Representatives now has
before it two reports from the Judiciary
Committee on proposed amendment to the
constitution giving Congress the power to
pass a uniform law Of marriage and divorce.
The majority report opposes the proposed
amendment. aud the minority report fayors
il. The majority opposes the amendment
for the reason that the trainers OF the con.
stituti0n did not take from the States the
regulation of the. marriage aud divorce
question, assuming that the omission was
Intentional, and consequently that this is
one Of the subjects over which States have
a kind Of natural control. 1t is easy to un-
derstand why the constitution was silent on
that subject. There was then little diver
sity in State laws regulating marriage and
divorce. If a couple were married in one
State they were considered as married in
all the States they might reside in. The
contract marriage was then unknown. The
law giving a woman the legal rights Of
wife upon. proof that she had been intro
dueed Or in any way recognized as q wife is
also Of modern growth. The constitution
authorized Congress to pass bankruptcy,
copyright and patent laws, but left TO each
State the power to deal with marriage and
divorce as it might see dt. Tie hundred
and more years that have passed since the
constitution was adopted have shown
causes for a national law which could
hardly have been imagined at the time.
From being nearly uniform, the marriage
laws Of the several States have become so
unlike that in a legal sense a couple may be
married in one State and not ID another.
The constitution requires each State to give
due respect and recognition TO the laws Of
another State. Applied to marriage. this
provision would seem to require a State to
recognize as valid any form OF marriage
which was declared valid in another State.
The effect Of this is to give the State that has
the loosest marriage laws The power to es-
tablish the standard. If one State may not
refuse to recognize form of marriage which
is legally valid in another State, a married
couple having confoTmed to the most iueg-
ular form can pass into tie State whose
marriage laws are most strict and claim full
recognition Of the relations they have as
sumed to each other. While nineteen
couples out Of twenty will, Of their own
choice, conform to all the requirements Of
the laws Of the most rigid State. the re-
naming one-twentieth may make a coed
deal of trouble. Large fortunes viii be
thrown into legislation, and in the end given
to one claimant OF another on doubtful tes-
timony. In fact. most Of these doubtful or
Irregular marriages are entered into with
more consideration to pecuniary gain than
to hope Of domestic happiness national
law would establish a form which parties
proposing to live together would conform
to and avoid the penalty of violating the
unwritten laws Of society as well as the
written laws Of the code.

sALIsBURY on FREE TRADE.

At the very moment while California Dem
ocrsts were denouncing the Mckinley tariff
Lord Salisbury was giving reluctant but con-
elusive testimony of its efficacy in building
uD American industries. Lord Salisbury
says:
Foreign nations are adopting protection. They
are excluding US from the markets aud trying to
XIII our trade. The important point is. while
nations are negotiating to obtain each others
commercial favor none is anxious about the
favor Of Great Britain, because Great Britain has
stripped herself OF the armOr and weapons with
which battles are fought. The attitude which
We have tsken In regarding It as dislOyal TO the
glorious and sacred doctrines Of free trade 10
levy duties on anybody Tor the sake OF anything
we get thereby may be noble, but IL is not busl-
nessllke.
This is the first time in years that Brit
ish Minister has admitted that the doctrines
Of free trade were unbusinesslike. The
Mckinley tariff was the first manifestation
Of the power Of nation TO protect its indus
tries against the more favorable conditions
prevailing in other countries, so as to bring
free-trade nations TO a realizing sense Of
their helplessness. Lord Salisbury admits
that the United States occupies position
the most difficult TO reach. The United
States imposes heavy tax on English prod
uets, and at the same time supplies Eng
land with articles which are essential to its
manufactures. Duties on American cotton
and American wheat would tend TO increase
the cost of British manufactures, aud con-
sequently cripple England In the contest
for the market Of the world. Lord Sails
bury says, in conclusion, that be thinks
free-traders have gone too far. They have
not, however, gone farther than free trade.
10 fact, they have not gone quite SO far, as
the English tariff, while limited to COM
paratiVely few articles, discriminates be-
tween raw material and finished goods.
There is a little protection even in British
free trade A free-trade fossil who hopes
to represent California district in the next
