FOREIGN,
Count De Lessips Imprisoned.

Count De Lesslps, "the great
Frenchman" who achieved world
wide renown for the successful cut
ting Of the Suez canal, has been con-
victed of embezzelment and impris-
onsd for five years. At the ripe age
of Is he conceived the idea of also
cutting canal across the Isthmus OF
Panama. Upon investigation it is
found that only one dollar in eight
contributed to the scheme has been
used for the cutting of the cannal,
the great bulk of it being used to
bride members of the American Con
gress and members Of the French
Chamber of Deputies and to subsidize
the newspapers.

The Wilmington Star says editori-
ly:
''The farmers of England have
tmed a sort of Farmers Alliance
a propose to try their hand In
81 itics, and see whether they can
as lessen some of the burdens
@y bear. They are really in a
s rse condition than the farmers of
s country, and it has been getting
Brse from year to year. This may
attributed partly, and doubtless
is, to the Governmental policies
Aat have prevailed, but is due,
efhaps, in greater measure to the
dnpetition from farmers of other
zuntries, against which they have
zd to contend"
Now mark you the Star admits
ht this is due partly to bad laws.

That section 4 of the said act of
1889 be amended by adding to the
end thereof the following "PRoyID-
Ed, that from and after the first day
of april, 1893, and before July /,
1898, any person holding a certifi-

You will see that the above amend
ments cover every objection that
any one has ever been known to
raise. We asked the committee to
recommend 20 the Senate that it do
not pass the bill repeating the pres
ent charter, but to pass the above
amendments to the said charter.
The committee did not decide
upon the matter, but set another
hearing for Tuesday evening the
Dist. The Alliance will be repre-
sented by counsel. We will not 60
back to Raleigh on the matter. We
have offered what is fair and if the
Legislature does not mean to single
out the Alliance for special hostile
legislation, it will accept the amend
ments. If it does not. then the
people shall know why. We will
open fire and commence war in earn
est. If the Legislature will not &C
cept all that has been asked, then
there are other motives behind
which we will expose. We lssve
for Washington, d. Z. tonight Mon
day. to attend a meeting of the Ma
tional Reform Press Association and
on other business and will not re-
turn till last of the week. We will
give you all the facts next week. If
the Legislature takes action before
the paper goes to press, my clerk
will make a note of 1t at the head of

e0QETH,NG TO THINK ABOUT,

The New York Herald is respOn-
able for the following sentiment:
"ilr Carroll d. Wright gives us
.om4 very interesting facts. He es-
inmates and in the matter of sta
f.tlcs he is expert-that there are in
tbJ- country at the present time rath-
or more than twenty-five millions of
psr,ou- who are engaged III gainful
Occupations
"Substracting from our slxty-fve
millions most of the wives and daugh-
ters, all of the decrepid and aged and
/ ball Of the school children 1t will be
secn that we are u work-a-day nation
lin it, shirt sleeves. The class Of do
|nothings, because they have too much
bnoncy, and the other class Of do
|nothings, because they are born loaf
|crs, do not count for much either III
bnoney or influence.
But Mr.. Wright adds that not
bully is the aggregate Of those who
] 10 work on the increase, but also
liz aggregate of those who are will
- to work, but can't get it. There's
A. rub. That is the reason for the
q Existence Of labor organizations, for
ktrIkes and for the unceaslng con-
fict between capital and labor"
The Herald is wrong in one point,
be "class Of do-nothings who have
Do much money" while small IN
slImbcr it is true, yet they have a
try powerful and farseeing inhu-
bee on the body polite. The I'M
Isl conditions, that makes this class
yossibe, also causes that class who
rc willing to work, but can't get
to increase. The Alliance and
d. other reformers of the United
States demand that legislation be go
Framed as to give to every man an
quail opportunity. When this is
one the class "who want to work,
nd can't get it," will disappear.
The class of "do-nothings because
bev have two much money! will
Do disappear. There will then be
Lii two classes: 1st. Those who do
pnest work and enjoy the fruits of
Seir own labor. OF course some Of
bese will be richer than others in
sbrldly goods, for God has given to
<ome men more talents than to others,
III all of this class will be equally
81 rich in cOntentment and happiness.
I'D The idle and the worthless class,
E om both ends of society, who will
ways be with us, even under just
snditions. This is the condition
formers are fighting for, and as
8 craftsmanship and prejudice give way
intelligence and reason all good

The Cove. Rerntta.

LONDON, August 5.-The brilliancy
OF the scene at the Cowes regatta this
week quite equsled all expectations.
An unprecenented number Of yachts
were present and Cowes has seen the
smartest social gathering since the ju-
bilee year. The contretemps 10 the
race for the Queens Cup, however,
caused a great deal Of III feeling, aud
cast a damper over the regatta. The
disqualification Of Vakyrie for the first
prize owing TO a trivial mistake in the
course, due 10 vague instructions, was
most unpopular and the opinion was
openly expressed that the committee in
awarding the race TO Meteor, the Ger
man Emperor's boat, paid more regard
TO the Kaiser's feelings than TO the
merits of the case, and that the Kai-
ser's action ia accepting the cup was
not altogether spOrtsmanlike. Lord
Dunraven was exceedingly annoyed at
the decision and protested that the
fault lay with the sailing instructions.
Valkyrie's crew showed their resent
ment in a more forcible manner by re-
fusing TO race for the cup offered by the
Kaiser. Valkyrie will sail for America
after competing in the regatta at Ryde
next week. Lord Duraven will sail 10
the Campanis at the end of September.

An excursion 70 the great wheat fields
OF the northwest for the entertainment
OF representatives OF agriculture upon
foreign commissioners has been arranged
through the courtesy Of the Milwaukee
and ST. Paul and northwestern rail-
roads. The purpose OF the journey is
TO enable the commission Of foreign
countries who are especially identified
In agricultural interests to form from
personal observation an accurate estl-
mate OF the resources Of the northwest.
The party will probably leave Chicago
on the 21st inst., and they will be en-
tertained at ST. Paul and Minneapolis,
from whence a trip 10 Minnetonka will
be taken, staying over Sunday on the
shores Of that beautiful lake. Pro-
ceeding on their journey the excursion
lists will be taken 10 Grand Forks,
DEVILS Lake and Larimore, where they
will be shown the great wheat farms
and an opportunity will be afforded
them OF seeing 10000 acres OF wheat
cut, a feat in agricultural accomplish
ment which cannot be eQualled In any
other place 10 the world.
Forty-niners who focked to Califor-
nia in the early days came 70 the Fair
to-day and wers entertained at the Cal

gether under the palms and related
stories Of early times when they left
their families and sailed around Cape

DR.. J. y. Bird, OF the California Com
mission, made the Od-timers speech
of welcome, which was responded TO

neers.
A reception was held by the Califor-
MIA Commissioners after the exercises.
The grand jury adjourned sine die
to-day without returning any indlct-
meuts 10 connection with the cold stor-
age warehouse FIRE. This practically
exonerates the four men held by the

OF Construction at the Fair; Marshall
Edward Murphy, John B. skinner,
President Of the Hercules Iron Works,
and Charles A. Mcdonald, General

The Republicans Meet.

WAsHISGToS, D. c., August 5.-The
room of the Committee on Judiciary was
none too large to hold the Republican
members OF Congress who gathered
there tonight to nominate their caBdi-
dates for officers OF the Fifty-third Con-
gress. Mr.. Henderson, Of Illinois, pre-
sided and Mr.. Hooker, Of New York,
acted as secretary, and each was suose-
ouently reelected TO the same position
in the caucus for the ensuing Congress.
When il came TO nominating the
ticket which IS TO be defeated Monday
Gen. Henderson nominated ex-Speaker
Reed, saying that he would name man
whose record and whose hold on the
uopular heart would make more elo-
ouent appeal than anything he might
be able 70 say.
The nomination was made by aeela-
nation. and after prolonged applause
Mr.. Reed responded in one Of his char
acteristic speeches.; his sarcastic draTi
having lost none Of its puDgeneJ dur
ing the summer recess. He claimed the
present condition Of depression was pre-
ciDitated By Democratic failure 70 leg
islate. There was no attempt on the
part OF Mr.. Reed TO outline party
policy.
Among the. others nominated were:
Clerk, Ed. MePhersons Pennsylyania;
