To Grow Tobacco In Kans ~.

To Grow Tobacco In Kansas
KANSAS Cu1, No, March 4.-Oa the vss'
hound Missouri Pacific train Wa eessaal
az loaded With Kentuckians who had sAabfs
the Gust of their nativo state from their feo(
to take up their abode in the SHUTDOWN state.
On esch aide of the car were large banners.
nroclaimino in large letters the grestness Of
Kansas. The car attracted much attention
and created much comment Upon investi'
cation a reporter learned that the exact des-
tinatlOn of these people was Lane, Kan,
where they had already purchased farms, OF
would do so. This body of people il only Z
small portion of Kentuckians, Tennee:eeana
and West VIrginians that, through the In
strumentality of Mr.. Long, have already
emigrated to Kansas, and they say still
there's more to follow.
Two years ago those that had already To-
Gated Ia Kansas tried the experiment OF rais-
Ing tobacco, aud the results of the trial were
away beyond what they had expected. II
was found by the cultivation of the plant in
1881 and 1892 that the soil and climate OF
Kansas were of such character as to produce
as fine a quality of tobacco as Kentucky
could raise. few hogsheads Of the weed
were shipped to Cincinnati and put on tho
market and brought tie top price. An acre
of good land, such al is found in eastern
Kansas, will produce about ], 500 pounds OF
TOBACCO, Wnlcn, aIter OeuuCtlu2 COSt OI pIO-
duction, handling and shipping, nets to the
grower about 900 per acre.
When the fact that Kansas would yield an
abundance of high class tobacco, as we'll as
a bountiful supply of all other agricultural
products, became known at the old homes
of those who had successfully raised tobacco
in Kansas, many energetic, well-to-do peo-
pie of these states prepared to 60 to Kansas,
the land of plenty.
And they are coming, and will continue to
come until Kansas will be noted for the
great amount of tooecco it produces. These
emigrants thoroughly understand the bust.
ness. and they expect their efforts to be re-
warded with surprising results.
j. S. Long, the gentleman who had this
colony in charge, lives at Lane, Kan, and is
a typical Kansan, persevering and energetic,
and one who knows no such word as fail,
and is continually ON the move, locating
homcseekers and working 10 big excursions
of eastern people to visit Kansas, and as q
result of his labors hundreds have found
homes in the land of the sunflowers, and
will grow rich from the products of the fer
tile soil of that great state. Next month
Mr.. Long proposes to bring nearly double
the numoer of emigrants that he did this
month. At 8:15 the train pulled out for
Lane, and the car lot emigrants for Kansas
attracted much attention as it moved OF
with flying banners.

May Open In April.

A Washington dispatch says: 1t is need.
less to add that the Oklahoma fellows are
happy. They are now willing to go back
home and meet their friends. They were
of the happiest to be found around town.
They will now insis: on Hoke Smith and
the president consuming rs little time as
possible in disposing of the departmental
routine necessary before the land can be-
given over to the settlers. Much depends
upon the incoming secretary of the interior.
and if he will show a degree OF interest ID
the matter equal to that of the senate, set
tiers will be permitted to legally enter the
lands by the middle of April. This is a
liberal estimate of the amount of time
necessary for the department work, judged
by those who are perfectly familiar with the
matter. The change of the head official of
the interior department will not of neces-
sity retard the matter in the least, as the
work will be done by the same experienced
departmental employees, and if Secretary
Smith simply does his part, which consists
in directing the work, the boomers will
soon have homes.

STOP EXPORTING.
You Can Keep Gold in the
Country If You Will.
Decrease lmportations and Use
Home Products and Gold will Flow
to Us Instead OF From Us-No
Bonds Necessary.

New YORK, March 6.-Telegr aphing to his
paper on the subject of the new bond issue
and the attitude of the outgoing admins
tration, the Washington correspondent of
the Mail and Express ends, what he states
is the substance of the utterances last week
by President Harrison. thus: Il said to
those gentleman when they urged me to
issue bonds for buying gold for the treas
ury, this matter ID virtusly in your hands.
You can stop exporting gold if you will.
To decrease the imports of general me'-
chandise and use home products will change
our International balance from a debtor
to a creditor balance. The country is ricn
in everything that she needs. She ought
to draw gold from all other nations, just
as she does her citizens. There is no
necessity for more bonds. l am pledged to
maintain the parity of gold and silver.
They are both at par. Thus my pledge IS
redeemed. If it is necessary to maintain
this parity would issue not only SIS, Co.,
OUO OF bonds. but SioO, OOO, 900 or 500 Co.,
600 and the parity shall be maintained to
noon of March4. Alter that the RESPONSE
biiity will rest on my successor. There Is
no necessity for more bonus during my
administration, and none shall be issued. y

WASHINGTON, d. c. March S.-The rsprs.'
sentstives of the Hawaiian governments
viii at the first favorable moment call the
attention of the new administration to tho
pending treaty of annexation. They do not
expect that the treaty will be withdrawn.
Of course if Mr.. Cleveland wlthdraws it
from the senate rs he withdrew the rsci-
states which President Arthur had negoti-
ated when he entered upon the duties Of
mis- Office eight years ago the prospect of
he annexation of Hawaii will end.
The views of Mr.. Cleveland himself have
not been expressed on the subject of Hawaii
since he was president before. The repro
,eutatives of the Hawaiian government, how
indicating that he believed that the ultimate
destiny of Hawaii was to be q part of the
United States.
Some of those who are in the intermediate
surroundings of Mr.. Cleveland, notably
Don NJ. Dickinson, are earnestly talking in
favor of annexation. Mr.. Dickinson, who.
by reason of his residence near the border
in Detroit, has become very much interested
in Canadian matters, has also expressed the
opinion that before the Cleveland admins
tration shall end movement will be inau-
gurat.d which may ultimately result in the
annexation of Canada. That, however, IL
mere conjecture.
Mr.. Olney, the new attorney general, 10
said by some to be an enthusiastic an
nexstionist, and there are many eminent
democrats who will not fail to call tho attsn-
ton of Mr.. Cleveland to the fact that all
tho annexations of territory which have
ever been msde to the United States,
except that which resulted from the pur-
chase of Alaska have been accomplished
under democratic administrations and that
the party which has opposed the annexa-
ton has generally been the one which hss
met with national defeat.

Senator John Martin Sworn.

Senator John Martin Sworn.
The first business recognized by the new
vice president was the reception of newly
elected senator's.
Twenty of those to whom tho oath was
administered were senators who had been
reelected. Five took their seats in the SEN
ate for the first time. Those are Messrs.
Lodge, Massachusetts,; Murphy, New York
Roach, North Dakota: Smith, New Jersey,
and White, of California.
The credentials of John Martin as senator
from Kansas were presented by Mr.. PETER
seemed to be in due form and to eutitle
Martin prirna facie to be admitted to seat
in the senate. If there was to be a question
as to his title upon the merits the senate
could pass upon that afterwards. He
moved that the oath of office be admins
tered to Martin. The motion was agreed
to and Mr.. Martin took and subscribed to the
oath.

Many Changes in Positions.

CHICAGO, March The third vice presi-
dent of the Atchison has resigned to accept
the presidency of the Chicago Terminal Rail-
way company. The managers of the Atchi.
son insisted Judge Sprlnger's resignation
should not become effective before March
81, but after that he will take up his new
duties. Vice President Springer's resigna-
ton will probably cause a complete change
in the vice presidents of the road.
Either A. A. Robinson or General Mana
ger Dickinson, of Union Pacific, will prob
ably be made first vice president in charge
of operation. It is not yet decided who
will take charge of traffic.
Assistant General Auditor Gillette will
be lraGe general auditor when the reorgan-
ization is complete. The election by di-
rectors of Mr.. Reinhart to the presidency
is expected to take place to-day, in Boston.

The Cherokee Measure

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 6.-The amend
ment as it was finally agreed to provides
that all of the purchase price over $s,0Oo,O 600
should be paid down and the remainder to
be paid in five years at the rate of 81, GOO, OCO
annually at 4 per cent.
The intruders are to be paid for their i'm
provemerts on valuation agreed to by a
commission composed of one Cherokee, one
appointed by the president and the two to
select a third. The money to pay lntruders
Is to be taken from the Cherokee funds.
The wording of the provision to meet the
emergency caused by the failure of the Cher.
okees to accept the agreement is not changed.
The S0acre provision is changed and claim
in the east third may cover 160 acres as we'll
us in the other two-thirds.
The price is $3.50 per acre for the east
third, $l.5O for the middle third and 81 tor
the west third.
When the government makes tender OF
the money to be paid down, the Cherokees
are compelled to accept 1t and Immediately
proceed to close the deal, and if they refuse
to accept, the strip at once becomes a part
of the public domain, to be treated as though
the Cherokees had accepted the terms of the
legislature. and the president is given one
year from the approval of the act in which
to complete all departmental work and open
the land to settlement. He must also issue
a proclamation, giving a notice of twenty
days before opening the lands to settlement.
This may be regarded Ms a phenomenally
long time to give the executive in which ia
do the detail work, but it is the result of q
vigorous effort ON the part of Villas and
some senators who made it apparent they
would follow the amendment in the house
ana have 1t adopted there if it was not made
in the senate. OF course. If there Is a delay
the appropriations feature will be the alleged
cause.
commission is also appointed to nego-
tiate with all the Indians in the territory and
assist in opening the lands to settlement.
