GOV. STONES DEFENSE.


About the middle of May the Daily
Ne,us, Of London, England, took
occasion to abuse the south with
great energy and bitterness OH
account of the lynchings there, and
quoted as authority for number of
baseless statements Miss Ida Wells,
"a colored lady from Memphis,
Tenn.," alleged to be the editor and
proprietor of paper there, who had
been driven into exile for protesting,
in her paper, against numerous
alleged cruelties to colored people.
1t seems she gave can account of
horrors that had occurred under her
own notice, and said that in 1888
lynchings, Or mob murders, last
year, only thirty of the victims had
been even accused of crime" Gov.
Stone, OF Missouri, has taken up the
cudgel of contr versy, and, in a
published letter to the Daily NeiOs,
vindicates the good name of the
southern states. After denying in
whole and in part the outrageous
falsehoods told by this "colored lady
from Memphis" Gov. Stone finds in
n business rivalry the motive for the
attack. The NeDs says that no
foreign capital will be attracted to n
lawless country, and Gov. Stone
appropriately asks: "Is the move
ment of the southern people TO attract
capital and labor into their fields,
mines and forests to be met by m
attack of this character? Are the
great newspapers Of Europe to bt
used to keep European capital from
the southern states? In my conject
ures as to the motive prompting thii
attack may be at fault, but, in my
statement that the reasons assigned
for it are wholly without substantial
foundation, i know ! am literally
correct"

a REM ARKABIE MISSION.

Two gentlemen from Philadelphia
have gone to Russia with the inten
ton of forcing to an issue with the
United States government Russia's 5
law forbidding Jews to enter the
country. One of these is DIR.
Krauskopf, a Jewish rabbi, and the
other is Rev. Russell Conwell. the
famous Baptist minister. BY the
treaty of 1892, it is provided that the
inhabitants of Russia and the United
States shall have liberty to enter all
parts of each others states wherever
foreign commerce is permitted, and
no provision is made for discrimina
ton on account of religious belief.
Preliminary inquiry makes it clear
that Russia's government will forbid
the entrance of the Jewish rabbi,
and thus bring the matter to an
issue. DR.. krauskopf's purpose is to
relieve the severely prosecuted Rus
sian Jews by organizing emigration
from the portions of Russia in which
they are cooped up by imperial
restrictions into the sparsely settled
interior portions of the country.

THEY MUST EE EDUCATED.
y new compulsory education bill
has become law in the state of
New York. 1t requires that all
children between the ages of eight
and twelve shall receive instruction,
wherever and however the parent
wishes, but during the entire public
school year of 100 days. Between
twelve and fourteen children must
be taught at least half of the legal
school year. Between fourteen and
sixteen, children must attend some
school, or study at rome, except
when they are regularly employed.
Legal officers are to be appointed
to watch the attendance of children,
and truant schools ar" to be es
tablished. Fines will be levied on
parents who break the law, and
on illegal employers of children.
This law will keep parents from
setting their children to work when
they should he in school, and SO
will lessen the earning power of
many poor families. 1t is note
worthy, therefore, that the labor
organizations of New York were
especially urgent for the passage
of the bill.

NEBRASKA FREE SILVER CONFERENCE.
"Free and unlimited coinage at the
ratio of 16 to l." will be the battle
cry of Bryan democracy in Nebraska
from now until election, and the
organization of subordinate branches
of the State Free Silver League that
was organized at a conference of the
silverites will at once be undertaken
in every county in the state in ac-
cordance with the resolutions there
adopted, for the purpose OF control
ling the democratic county conven-
tion, who will insert the pet silver
plank in the state platform of the
party.
The conference was by no means
as had been predicted by the engi-
neers of the movement, less than
one third of the accredited 100 dele
gates being present, and the radical
anti administration men were quietly
throttled OH the outside TO the extent
of preventing anything of rebcllious
nature from going into the record of
the meeting. Everything was cut
and dried and the program was
carried out without n distressing
voice. A state free coinage league
was organized that claims to repre-
sent three quarters of the voting
strength of the party in Nebraska.
At the conference letter was read
from Gov. Stone, of Missouri, that
created the greatest enthusiasm
among the 600 delegates.
At a period when the convention
was Mt fever heat over the discus
sion of the resolution in favor of
the unlimited free coinage, waving
his hand out over the body of the
convention, the chairman invoked
silence upon the part of the dele
gates, saying that he had a message
from one of the rock ribbed demo-
Gratis, who was born in the faith, and
who had always stood by his colors
and the guns.
The hush that fell over the audi
dence was painful in the extreme
and then a letter, written by Gov
Stone, of Missouri, to 9. J. Smyth
was produced and read. The gov
ernor wrote that 1t was with the
deepest regrets that he was com
PEELED to announce that he could no
attend the silver conference. H'
knew that the democratic party wa
all torn up over the question Of sill
yer, the eastern members of thu
party wanting to drag the whit
metal down into the dust, while thu
loyal democrats of the south, thu
west and the northwest were in favo
of its being restored at the ratio OF II
to 1.
At this juncture some democrat
, from one OF the outlying countie
, boiled over with enthusiasm AM
! yelled "Bully for Gov. Stone'"
Continuing the governor OF Mis-
. souri, proceeded to say in his lette
/. that the money power OF the cas-
} dominated the party, who were i

AN INTERcoLoNrAL CONFERENCES.

AN INTERCOLoNIAL CONFERENCE.
There Is to be held in Ottawa,
Canada, on June %, an imperial trade
conference, consisting of represen-
tatives from the English colonies in
all parts OF the world, together with
the imperial government. This is
the first time British colonies have
taken the initiative in such a move,
and remarkable results may be
anticipated. Some of the subjects
that will be discussed are: 1 Trade
relations between the colonies and
the mother country. AS it is, Au-
stralia and Canada and New Zealand
all tax the goods of England as
highly as those of any country.
England protects her colonies with
her soldiers, and legislates for them,
but receives nothing in return.
Some system of reciprocity between
the colonies and the mother country
may be desired. (2) A Pacific cable
connecting Vancouver, Canada, with
Brisbane, Australia. This will cost
at least ten million dollars. a similar
cable is projected between San Fran
cisco and Japan. (3) The formation
of complete passenger and freight
line around the world, under British
control, and of the first class. Eng
lish steamers between England and
Canada are three days slower than
those of the New York route, though
that is longer. With this exception,
England possesses remarkable
system of communication around the
world, though her Pacific Ocean line
needs some attention.
