ALIENS SUDDEE FAME.
The Notwithstanding senator who
Talked Nearly Fifteen Hours.


Senator William Vincent Allen, OF Ne
braska, is a giant in stature, and it Is
said his mental calibre is consistent with
his physical makeup. He is Justly enti-
tied to rank in political history as the
dark horse of 1893. At any rate he is a
little the darkest Of those known in polit-
zeal slang as dark horses, men tud-
denly made candidates and elected One
fine morning he was sitting in his library
at Madison, Madison county, when he
received ,legram asking his immediate
presence at Lincoln, where the three par
ties had been in deadlock for two weeks.
He went and was astonished by being
told that the populists had chosen him to
break the deadlock. He consented, and
four days la.er he was elected to the
United States senate by the combined
vote OF Democrats and populists, receiv-
ing seventy votes to fiity-n ne for Senator
A. S. Paddock. the Republican. Judge
Allen, as he is best known, is 46 years
old, a native OF Madison county, Ohio, but
reared chiefly in Iowa, a veteran of the
Union army. in which he enlisted at the
age Of is years, and gentleman Of mag
nifcent proportions, Q feet 8 inches high
and weighing 225 pounds.
He became populist at the time OF the
great slump" two years ago. having pre-
viously been Republican, and was by
the populists elected jsdge Of the Ninth
judicial district. The novelty of his posi-
ton is further enhanced BY the fact that
he is the first senator from Nebraska not
Republican, though khe state was adj
mitted as saeh on March /, 1857. The
people Of Madison, whe Judge Allen has
lived since 1884, Eith Ut distinction OF
party, at once organize grand demon

now TO MARKET FRUIT.
Orgu uization aud Cooperation by
Growers Very Necessary.

The fruit growers Of California are be-
ginning to discover that as much can be
gained by organization and co operation
as by their best efforts in their orchards,
observes the Tacoma Ledger. The direc-
ton in which their co operative efforts
have been most productive so far has
been in marketing. At recent meeting
OF the State Horticultural society, held at
San Francisco, a comparison of expense
sh pwed that the results of cooperation
in sending their product TO market bad
been satisfactory in many ways. 1t has
secured the best prices, certain sales and
sure returns.
Why 1t had done this was shown by
Mr.. stabler, Of Yuba City. He said that
individual fruit growers who sent their
product forward when ii was ready, in
small lots, and consigned to people OF
whom they knew little, frequently met
with loss, and sometimes it happened
that they never heard from their fruit
again. BY the cooperative plan the sup
ply was regulated so that fruit was not
only sent forward in carload lots at the
lowest rates to be secured, but it was sent
TO the best market and at time when
there was a demand for IL. The expert
enced and wealthy growers found the plan
advantageous as well rs the small ones.
although the small ones found they
znaped 9 profit through it where hereto.

A Portion 81 the Platform Adopted
en- the Opening Day.

In the irrigation convention Friday
morning the platform committee reported
its platform to the orgress. which was
read by Ex-Governor Lionel Sheldon II
IL in part as follows:
1.-THE scenes enacted recently In the
Cherokee strip are a reminder that the
pressure OF surplus population still seeks
an outlet in the west and that settlement
In the portion Of the public domain where
the rainfall is sufficient TO support agri.
culture has reached Its limit. The unset.

States is mostly arid or semiarid. We
confidently predc; that these arid lands
are destined to become the seat Of the
highest civilization and the greatest aver.
age prosperity yet developed on this con.
tinent. The development OF these lands
can only be success fully attained by ma.
tional legislation. The laws now govern.

property, and that 1t can be neither
bought nor sold. We claim that streams
rising In one state and flowing by natural
courses through one or more other states
must be conserved and equitably divided
under federal authority. We indorse the
policy Of forest and storage reservations
covering mountain watersheds. II is "a
act Of simple justice to ask the govern
ment to devote a portion Of the money
received from the sale OF lands at for
agriculture without irrigation to scientific
Investigation Of means for reclamation
from surface streams. storm waters and
underground supplies. We earnestly urge
speedy action by congress 10 this direc-
ton. In regard to arid lands We recon-
mend that national executive commit
tee, composed Of Ave competent men
from each state and territory in the arid
or semi-arid region, shall at once enter
upon careful Investigation Of the condi-
tions existing in each OF their states and
territories. and then formulate plans
looking to the adoption OF national
policy, and upon these reports the declar-
atoms of the peopleof western states may

made from the best attainable data--an
army larger than Wellington's redcoats
at Waterloo; eleven-twelfths OF them are
under so; tive-sixths Of them have trades
or occupations requiring pkill; over nine
tenths OF them can read and write. And
these persons, constituting over onc-quar-
ter Of cent Of our adult male population,
are permanently withdrawn from produc.
tive work. That Is not all. They bear
no public burdens. In case of war the
recruiting sergeant might be nimble
enough to catch them II bounties were
high and bounty jumping active, but the
taxgatherer never, in war or peace. The
very roads which they wear they never
repair.
Nor is this all. They are steady con-
sumers. To support them In the open
heath In Hartford costs $3.50 per week
in the almshouse, 1886. And since in.
stitutional life is adopted by them only
as last resort, We may be sure that what
they get outside is worth at least as much
as the smaller Of these sums. Add q
conservative 10 cents day Tor drink,
levied upon the public by begging, and 2
cents for tobacco, and you have not fan
from $3.50 per week, or about $4,000, 00C
annually. .
Then add police supervision. Every
arrest In Hartford costs $l5.6S simply In
police hire. Then add hospital and dis
pensary charges. In fact, it can hardly
be doubted that the average tramp costs

ularly Tor the greater benefits to be gained
by combination in shipment and market
ing. This Is matter that our own fruit
growers ought to he considering. Fruit
is product that must be marketed when
1t is ready for market. 1t cannot be held
for better prices as wheat or corn, or even
vegetables can be held. 1t cannot be
prottably shipped in small lots. 1t will
not receive the attention after 1t reaches
the market. when shipped in that way,
that would be given 1t II It came in large
quantities. 1t cannot be as well handled
or as thoroughly protected from injury
while IN transit. The individual grower
cannot as certainly send 1t to the best
market, when there are several markets
to choose from, and altogether the CO.
operative plan has everything TO recon-
mend it and the old plan has everything
to condemn it.

THE DARKEY MADE WHITE. Politics
and prejudice having failed to dispose Of
the negro problem, chemistry has come
to the rescue. One J. ARIEL Johnson, a
prominent and respected citizen Of Tope-

liquid that has the wonderful properties
OF white dye that will perform the sup
posed impossible feat of changing the
color OF the Etheopian's skin. He intends
to open !abratory for the concoction oil

made. Intelligence has long ceased to
wonder what semblance the next within

be expected as product OF the erratic
brain of the Kansas philosopher.

Nor so BAD AS REPoRrED.-The Spo-
kane Review has specials from fifteen
points in Eastern Washington and North
ern Idaho which show that the damage
to the crops will not be SO great as at first
feared, The weather remains clear and
harvest is again in full blast all over the
Inland En- pire. In Walla Walla, Yak
ina and Kittitas counties the damage is
trivial. In the Big Bend phenomenal
crop is being harvested with small loss
either in grade or actual depreciation. In
parts of Palouse large part Of the crop
will be damaged or lost, but in other
parts the great bulk Of the crop will be
saved. Stevens county sends favorable
report. 1t is safe to say that heavy yield
and increased acreage will offset the
losses from wet weather, and that the
Inland Empire will have the usual crop
for export
