gesFarmss Idle for Hands.
Out of the wilderness Of the west
there has come a cry Of supplication
to Col. Weber, COMMISSIONS Of Immi-
grafton at Ellis Island. 1t reached
him yesterday through the agency of
the United States mail, and was
scrawled ON the face Of a postal card.
Dear Colonel, : it read, " For
Heavens sake don't send no more poor
people back. # they ! not crippled
or criminals send them all to Texas.
One third Of our farms are lying idle
for the want Of hands. Send them on.
My address is Fred Strack, Naches-

" production 10 2O,1S9, and the fa-
nous Mcdonald field is not in il any
more. The total production Of the
field for the % days Of December from
the LIST to the 2Sth inclusive, was 453,-
752 barrels. The production now on
an average is. few hundred barrels
oyer 10000 barrels Il day.

But few Of u people would object
to laying a reasonable price to have
the ice removed from their sidewalks.
Take for instance the thin and yet
t~reacherous layer that caused SO many
falls early in the week. It could not
be cut off, salt scattered over it is said
to ruin rubbers and shoes and no one
can blame the careful housewife who
does not want her her carpets ruined
by ashes dragged fromthe pavement.
Sawdust is the best thing but ishard
to get. Now here is an idea. Let some
one the next slippery spell get . load
of sawdust and sprinkle it over the
sidewalks charging q fair price for the
job. At a dime a pavement there is
big money in the scheme.

State Senator John B. Finley, Of the
Twelfth West Virginia district. was in
Washington Thursday on his way TO
visit his father in Virginia. whence he
viii proceed later to Charleston When
asked about the opposition to Senator
Faulkner, Mi. Finley said he had not
seen enough members Of the Legisla-
ture to form a definite opinion as to its
extent. In his own district. he said, 4
large majority Of Democrats favored
Faulkner's reelection, and he was go
ing to cast his vote in the Legislature
in accordance with that sentiment. He
did not think the opposition to Fanlk-
ner would amount to much. He had
carefully canvassed his own district on
the question and found that owing to
Senator Faulkner's splendid fight
against the force bill and general SER
vice to the party, the sentiment Of the
people was that he had earned a re-
election to the Senate. Mr.. Finley
thought the same sentiment prevailed
all over the State and added it wonld
look strange for West Virginia to deny
to Senator Faulkner the same endorse
ment which other States had given to
their representatives in Congress who
had distinguished themselves in the
fght againstrthe infamous force bill.
Speaking Of probable legislation at
Charleston Senator Finley said he
thought the public sentiment Of the
State would justify an amendment to
the State constitution providing for a
carefully drawn registration law.

President Harrison Physically Wel-In the Prime
ofLife.
In view Of the statement published
that President Harrison's health was
failing, and that he was likely to break
down before his term Of Office closed,
Postmaster General Wanamaker was
questioned as to the facts. He said
1.-THE report that President Harrison
was failing in health must have origi.
mated with some one with little oppor-
tunity to know the truth. The fact is,
the President is in perfect health, and
has not in four years been away from
his desk a single day from personal
sickness. He has for months been
1T in the wilderness Of suffering, and
the shadow Of it fingers for a time
upon a nature that feels al keeply as
his. / would take him to be now at
the very prime, and with the great
business capacity he hasdeveloped and
his tireless habits at work, he has
been able to accomplish each day twice
as much labor as in his former legal
business life. It is not q clever thing
to make an invalid out Of q man be
cause uncommon griefs are not laid
off at the end Of thirty days. It is
quite likely that Stanford University
is seeking him, 50 i also a score Of
other things, but until his work is com
pleted here. / donbt if he will seriously
think of future occupation

:. Senator PETER, OF Kansas, occupied,
the, time of the Senate yesterday in
disscnssing tho causes Of tho panic.
He held that the trouble had not
been caused by any want OF conf
dence ON tho part Of the people, but
by practical treason on the part Of a
class which he hoped would be re.
lieved from any responsibility OF steal
ing from the people, He took no
stock in the charge of the protection
lists that fear of changes in the tariff
had much to do with the panic.
He asked what fears had the farm
ere, mechanics or clerks of The coun-
try that the manufacturing establish
ments were in danger from the pres
emit administration. He insisted that
now, and for the last half dozen years,
failures of manufacturing establish
ments did not come from any protec-
tive tariff policy, but from a want of
orders; people had no money to buy
goods and orders were blachened.
There is no danger of free trade unless
that fights forced on by the people.
1t wore forced then every Custom
House would be- RACED, and from that
Lime on trade with all Of the world
would be free If the farmers OF the
country had to compete with pauper
labor the manufacturers conld do it,
aud they would have to do it before
the fight ended. What was fair to
the farmer was fair to the manufac-
turer.
The five minute debate on the
Wilson bill began in the House.
Waugh, COMETS, Houck, Bartholdi
