Mckinley in Kansas.

TOPEKA, Kans., Oct. 6.-The
home of Populists was invaded by
Ohio's governor today. A special
train started from Kansas City at
1920 over the Atchison road
headed for Hutchinson, with
stops and speeches scheduled
for eleven places en- route
The first stop was at Argentine,
where a few words were spoken.
At Lawrence fully 1000 people
were at the station. Mckinley
spoke reminiscently Of Lawrence
as the scenes of some Of the earliest
struggles for freedom and state
hood. With an apparent refer,
ence to populism the Governor
said: ave might as well
understand now that one or the
other, the Republican or Demo
cratic party, is going to conduct
the policy Of this government, and
it is for you to determine which
one of these parties will conduct
the policy of the government in
such manner as to best subserve
the interest of the people Of the
United States"
Topeka was reached at $3.50. A
cavalry escort preceded Governor
Mckinley as he was driven to the
state house grounds, where plat
form had been erected. There was
an immense crowd assembled and
the greeting given the distinguish
ed visitor was very cordial.
Governor Lewelling offered to
be present and officially receive
Governor Mckinley, but the Re-
publican managers declined, say
ing they wanted to make the occa-
sion purely Republican one.

HIS Birth Questioned.

PARIS, Oct. ga story has bo~
come current here regarding the
legitimacy of the Due d. Orleans,
son of the late Comte de Paris. In
effect it is that just before the birth
of the present Duke of Orleans the
late Count of Paris and wife were
travelling in Italy under the name
Of Count and Countess de Joinville.
They were very much interested
just at this period in the birth of a
male heir to the succession and to
the vast wealth that would go
with it, and fearing that girl in
stead Of a boy might be born, the
Count resorted to a subterfuge in
order to remedy such an evil.
To this end he made the &C
quaintance Of man named Lo-
renZo Chiapini, jailer at the pris-
on Of Modiglians, and it was
agreed that in the event Of the
Countess giving birth to daugh-
ter the jailer would adopt it and
give in exchange his own boy, who,
was within a few days of being the
same age.
The event justified the precau--
ton. The Countess gave birth to a
and she was baptized
under the name of Maria Stella
the jailer's wife gave up
her boy and he is now known as
the Duke of Orleans.
This story has been certified to,
by documents signed by members
Of the Italian nobility, by a death
bed confession of Lorenzo Chap
mi, by magistrates and by cler-
gymen, all of whom attest the
truthfulness of this substitution,
which was operated between the
of the Count and the SON
Of the jailer.

The republican registration frauds in
Philadelphia are proven to be worse than
anything ever attempted in any other
part Of the country. Among the latest
are twsnty-nine voters registered in a
hotel that is empty and has been adver-

room house in which nine voters were
registered, only two of whom were gem

an alleged boarding house. which is really

registered and but one is genuine. These
are merely samples of dozens of cases
that have been exposed by the Philadel-

there can be no question that the bogus

THE MARKETS OF THE WORLD.

face Of the earth, even under the re-

found place in these markets of the world
last year for our goods to the amount
Of $780,, ,143, ,547. Surely Mr.. Harrison has
not struggled along thus far without learn
ing where the markets of the world are,
while all the time he has been proclaming
that he was a student Of markets and
not Of theories"
But there is a popularity about these
markets that Mr.. Harrison may not have

1t will be observed from these figures
that the proportion of export to Europe and
to South America has varied but slightly,
Notwithstanding the effort to restrict ccm-
merce with Europe and to increase it with
South America. In the year 1892 the great
increase Of exports went to Europe, While
the South American exports fell off. 1t
would appear very plain that Europe. cen
tains the markets that are most important
TO US. and the reason is simple Europe
does not raise enough agricultural prod
ucts to support her people. South Ameri-
ca does. Both North and South America
are exporters Of agriculture, products. If
our commerce with South America ever
increases greatly it viii be through the ex-

meats. The inhabitant OF the torrid zone
eats vegetables and fruits that grow there.
The foods that are healthful to one would
not be TO the other. In the temperate
zones there is a change of diet from sum-
mer to winter. as the conditions of the
torrid and frigid zones alternate. 1t is a
known fact that each zone produces the
foods best fitted for its inhabitants. Hence
our food market must be found chiefly in
the temperate zones. and for many years,
at least, they must be found in the
crowded cities of Europe.
