LOOKING AHEAD.

Senator Harris of Tennessee has come
out for Vice-President Stevenson for the
next Democratic Presidential candidate.
The suggestion of Stevenson as a good
man TO run for President was made after
the November election returns had been
carefully studied. Neal and Watterson,
the joint authors of the fatal tariff clause
in the Chicago plank, were relegated to the
ranks by that event. Gresham was trying
10 explain how he came TO write the letter
that will perpetuate his name, and Carlisle
was telling New York gold bugs that be
never could understand what the double
standard meant though at one time he had
stood upon a dou ble-standard platform.
Under the circumstances it is not surpIis-
ing that the political sense OF Senator Har-
ris should have considered Stevenson as a
fair illustration Of the theory of the sur
viyal of the fttest.

POOLING A PRESIDENT.

The New YORK Herald claims to have
mapped out President Cleveland's Ha-
waiian policy. 1t claims that Commits
siorer Blount's report was published to
the world in Charles Nordhoff's special
dispatch to the Herald. "Mr. Blourfs
recital" says the modest journalist. "sim-
ply mphasizes it with the force of an Off
cial communication to the Government"
1t is well known that Mr.. Nordhoff's first
letter to the Herald was dispatched from
the Islands the morning after Nord hoff's
arrival. The transformation contained in
that letter was communicated to Mr.. Nord-
hoff Oh the steamer on his way out. When
the letter was dispatched he had not been
in the Islands long enough to know of his
own knowledge anything about the politi-
cal situation. If Blounrs report and
Nordhoff's letter are substantially iden-
teal, as the Herald claims, the latter
could not have contained important facts
that were not in the former. 1t seems,
therefore. that The Herald either led Presi-
dent Cleveland into his Hawaiian policy
or served as Mr.. Cleveland's instrument
to mislead the public. The amusing part
of the business is that the Herald should
be Boosting of the part 1t took in the
matter

ANOTHER CHAPTER.

The State Department has given ont an
other volume Of the Blount report. There
can be no other object in presenting this
mass of matter to the public than that Of
showing that the personal agent made a
show of earning his salary. HIS first
volume was locked for with some interest,
mainly because the department had limited
darkly of disclosures which would turn
the tide of public opinion in favor of the
Presidents Hawaiian policy. But the
volume published was so unsatisfactory
that no valuable information is looked for
from that quarter. The Boston Journal
speaking of the first volume said:
The most striking thing about the report, so
far as the published extracts go, is that II
Ignores altogether the revolution Initiated by
the Queen IN the attempt to establish an absO-
lutte despotism. That was the starting point OF
the whole business, but Mr.. Cleyeland's para
mount Commissioner does not recognize II.
Nothing could be more conclusive of the
truth Of the assertion often made that Mr..
BIount was sent out to make out case
rather than to investigate and report facts
and true conditions than the omission the
Journal notes. The point was made in
THE CALL early in the controversy that
the queen UepOSeu DeTSeI ny attempting
to set aside the constitution which was hel

reported as II the Queen had done nothing
to justify the uprising against her. We
quote again from the Journal:
But the fact is. as any orderly history Of the
occurrences which precr ded and attended the
formation of the Provisional Government will
show that before the committee on public
safety met or any measures were taken to gel

his amusing testimonial of good character, of
the throne, she had undertaken TO possess her.
self of absolute power by overihrowing the con
stitutlon. 1t was then that the public safety
was threatened. 1t was then that the men Of
Intelligence and Of means on the islands were
aware that If they submitted TO the rockies,
schemes of the Queen and her corrupt advisers
neither their property nor their lives would be
safe, and. In selfdefense, they organized theii
committee OF public safety, out OF which grew

Blount went out to ascertain the truth ana mo-
to find pretext for preconceiVed policy fol

facts as they are?

FREE RAW MATERIAL.

The Ways and Means Committee have
persisted In placing wool, iron ore, lum-
Der. Dituminous coal, coffee, salt, fax and
other articles of minor importance on the
free list. In so doing they disregard the
requirements of their own platform and
the principles of justice. AS in manufac.
lures the principal cost of producing raw
material is labor, why then should the
labor engaged in this department Of in
dustry be left unprotected while the labor
employed on nufactured goods is pro-
tected? 1t will be admitted that the
working up of raw material into finished
goods is more profitable than the produc-
tion Of raw material, but in the United
States the two industries should go hand
in hand. The Dem cratic tariff is evil

England admits raw material free and
American imitators of England think that

material at the lowest possible cost that
they may be able to send goods to all parts
Of the world. But different conditions
prevail in tile United States and call for a
different policy. There is certain to be re-
belliOn in free trade ranks when one in
dustry is sacrificed TO promote another.

AGRICULTURAL POSSIBILITIES.

The report of the Secretary Of Agricul-
ture ranges over a vast area Of diverse
subjects inasmuch as il deals with every
product OF the soil and takes account of
markets and foreign imports and exports.
No other country can exhibit such diver
sity of cultivation. We have the fruit of
the tropics and the hardy tint Der and wheat
of the Northwest; the prolific variety of
tie Pacific Coast and the rich staples of
the Atlantic Coast; rice, tobacco and cot
ton, together with all the corn and grain
of the West. AS in every country agricul.
ture is by far the most i'm portant industry.
When that is in a dropping condition,
through sinister accidents of market or
bad seasons, every other field OF employ
ment suffers.
We seem now to be reaching point
when better systems of agriculture must
prevail to be successful. 1t will not do to
make reckless use of the soil and let il de-
generate in fertility by constant cropping
of one or TWO staples without rotation or
fertilizing. The new land of good quality
has mostly been taken up, and efforts must
be made to sustain its fertility to make
farming remuDerative. In the magDifi-
ceDce of the home markets of practically
a continent there are inducements to every
distinctive section of country. geographic
ally considered, TO do its best. There is
also the permanence of a large foreign
market for meat, lard, fruits and wheat,
besides tobacco. 1t would be we'll if every
pound of wool and every pound of cotton
we produce were woven into fabrics and
exported in that shape, as we'll as all skins
converted into leather goods. That must
be our aim. The country would have a
higher position while manufacturing and
exporting than in sending abroad any raw
material.
1t is the function of the Department of
Agriculture by its statistics and sugges-
tions TO show the cultivators the right
road 10 success. 1t is. for instance, much
more economical to export beef. mutton
and pork than any of the cereals on which
stock is fattened abroad. In many States
wheat-grOwng is becoming unpro fitable.
but the market for meat at home and
abroad is far from yet having reached Its
ultimate. IL California our special ad-
vantages in fruit-growing are obvious.
With better systems of transportation Cal
ifornia might prOtitably market ten times
its present growth of fruit, but the i'm
proved service requisite will not come save
by active combination and exertion. AS
soon as the change can be made it will be
found that wheatgrowing for the highest
prices obtainable in Liverpool is after all
poor reward out of a soil so admirably
adapted for more remunerative products.
The Secretary of Agriculture cannot but
conclude that many of the fruits we I'M
port might be grown at home. He wisely
insists upon attention being given to the
raising of subsidiary crops and variety of
cultivation. 1t is the bane of agriculture
that farmers are slow to grasp new situa-
lions which might mend their fortunes

Rev. DR.. Mathena of the committee to
confer with similar committees from minis
terial bodies of other denominations. with
reference to holding union eyangellstic
services during the progress OF the MID
winter Fair. reported that progress had
been made, and that there was ground Tor
hope of getting Moody to come out ana
take charge of the movement.
Rev. DR.. Ellis read paper on some pro-
posed changes in the modes of procedure
in judicial trials, which will involve a
number of amendments TO the Book of
Discipline of the church. He enumerated
the changes which he considered neces-
sary, giving the reason for his opinion IN
each case. Among other things, he would
have every trial with closed doors by
commission composed of ministers and
elders in equal number, and would rem
der members of the commission dlsquall-
fed as witnesses in the case on trial.
A new constitution for the government
of the union was reported by a committee

Kinley by number of New York gentle

Democrat. 1t is not the manufacturers who
need protection. but the laDoring men.
What Mr.. Bartin was doing in 1892 he
did not say. Doubtless he was doing what
he could to elect the candidates of the
party which declared protection unconsti-
tutional. But MIR. Bartin is quite right In
saying that it is not the manufacturers who
need the protection, but the laboring men,
The manufacturers will cut wages in pro-
portion to the cut in the tariff duties on
the goods they produce. The laboring
man must labor, and if he cannot get his
old wages he will take what he can get.

The officials of the Market-street Rail-
way Company were In consultation yes
terday, the subject under consideration
being Mayor Ellert's late letter regarding
the unused tracks belonging to the COM
pany.
Just prior to the meeting President
Croker said that that organization had no
tracks laid in the city which it did not
propose to use, and possessed no fran
chises on streets which it was not pro-
posed to bring into use just as soon as
circumstances will justify it. As to the
action which the company would take as
result of the Mayors letter. Mr.. Croker
refused to state. He said that while he
was at times disposed to give publicity to
projects or methods under consideration
by the company. he must refuse to discuss
future action in this connection as the
question would IN all probability be taken
into the courts.
III. E. Huntington was at his Office in the

over $500, 600 to the shippers az compared
