The Wilson bill reduces the farmers

markets TO Canadian farm products with
out getting any return whatever from
Canada IL puts American tobacco grow
ers In competition With the Dutch syndi-
Gates employing eoolie labor in Sumatra
and other islands. II destroys the

India began 10 make permanent i'm
preston on the English market with her
wheat, which, may Be said TO date from
is@0, she has increased her supplies in
varying amounts from year to year from
500. 600 bushels TO 56,0o0,0 900. but aver
ages about 81. 100000. Australia has come
in the English market with about 10. o0o,-
600 bushels of wheat yearly. The Argen-
tine Republic has begun TO send wheat to
Europe At q rate which has already pnt
that country in the third place as O. wheat

United States. Russia, Argentine and
India In 1888 over 1000 600 bushels Of
wheat left Argentina tor Europe. This
year the estimate 10 for 60 600 900 bushels.
These facts show that the farmers of the
United States must look more and more to
their home market for the sale of their
wheat and other products, and yet the
Wilson bill proposes TO surrender this
market to Canada and Europe.
Furthermore, section second of the in-
come tax Law provides that ali classes but
farmers shall be taxed on net earnings
only, while the farmer is to be taxed on
gross earnings; other classes are to DO

These articles will be imported free from
Canada as. of course. there will be no OBJ
ject in the government of that country
retaining them on the dntiable list. Be-
sides transferring these articles to the free
list heavy cut has been made in the
duties retained in the bill as compared
with the Mckinley law. This has been
accomplished by substituting ad vaiorem
for specific rates. Under the ad vaiorem
system horses worth 800 to $i25 will.
judging from the past, be valued in the

THE House Judiciary Committee re-
ports in favor of the bill for the exclusion
of anarchists. The committee expresses
its consciousness of the weighty impor-
tance of the subject. and that every con-
sideration of public safety demands strin-
gent legislation concerning it. The COM
mittee, as body of lawyers, finds COM
plete legal justification for such legisla-
ton, and that the objection that the bill
excludes or refuses landing to anarchists
without the opportunity to be heard be-
fore jury, is not good. 1t tails to see
upon what principle a jury is insisted
upon in order to deport an alien whose
residence is considered detrimental to
the public welfare. Now. then, let the
House act and pass the bill. The opposi-
ton interposed on Tuesday cannot pre-
vail if there is proper conception of the
demand of the American people for shut
ting the door of the nation in the face of
all anarchists.

How stolen Property Was Located in

How Stolen Property Was Located in
kentucky.
The Maysville Bulletan prints the fol-
lowing:
Doctor Lapsey Mckee of Danville, a
prominent Presbyterian minister, relates
the following strange story, for the truth
of which he vouches.
"His grandfather was tanner and lived
at Lancaster, and one night thieves car
ried oft large lot of kip and sole leather.
The old gentleman cast about as to how
he could apprehend the thieves and re-
cover his property.
"He remem bered that there lived in an
adjoining county an old man, Uncle
Billie Armstrong, who was noted for be-
ing able to locate stolen goods. tie went
at once to the man and told him about the
loss OF his leather and asked him if he
could assist him in recovering it.
'Uncle.Billie took off his hat and TAX
ing out of it wire rod, he turned it over
in his hand and replied he could tell him
all about the theft. Said he: Your
leather was stolen by negro man and
woman with the assistance of we'll
known white man Of the neighborhood,
and when you get back to Lancaster you
will find the negroes have been caught
part of the leather recovered, the negroes
whipped for the theft and the leather in
the cOuTtDOuS6s
"Mr. Mckee hurried back and, upon
arriving in the town and driving to the
Courthouse, saw that it was open, al
though it was no regular court Upon
going IN he saw his leather lying on a
large table, and was told that the negroes
had just been whipped. Uncle Billie had
also advised him not to try to do anything
with the white man, as only the evidence
of the negroes could be brought against
him, which, under the laws of that day,
was insu tficient to convict white per-
son, and it would cause him the loss OF
much money. But as he had been SO
successful in getting the leather from the
negroes, he had the white man arrested
and brought to trial. when there being
no evidence but that of the negroes
against the accused, Mr.. Mckee in the
end had to pay out great deal of money
as the white man sued him for damages.
Doctor Mckee said that the only ex-
PLANTATION he could offer of the fact OF
Mr.. Armstrong being possessed of such
a wonderful gift was that in those days
police and detectives were scarce, and he
thought an all-wise Providence had en-
dowed that worthy Christian man with
this supernatural power. At any rate he
certainly possessed it, and it was recog-
nized ali over that county"

"rHE HATEFUL IRISH,

Emma Goldman, the anarchist priest
ess, when released from the New York
Penitentiary the other day, proceeded to
deliver herself of red flag speech at an
anarchist meeting held to welcome her.
Notwithstanding that Mowbray, the
English high priest of the anarchist
school, was upon the platform with her,
the woman who is accepted as leader
and prophecies in the cause, proceeded
to denounce all who oppose her views
and plans. and took occasion to thrust
Mowbray between the ribs by speaking
of the j" Deceitful English"
But she coupled the Irish with them
and rallied at the i" Hateful Irish and de-
ceitful English because, as she alleges.
the people of this country, the United
States, seek the aid of the old country to
help them get rid of anarchy.
1t is decided compliment to the Irish
and the English that anarchists should
denounce them. Especially to the Irish
is the denunciation fiattering, since it in
dieates that anarchists deem the Irish
difficult to SOW the seeds of German
anarchism among.

Weather Forecast.
Northarn CaIifnrnia-Fair weather
A CASE IN POINT.

Our evening contemporary, the Bee,
has been at pains to take a census of Sac
ramento and adjacent hop yards. 1t finds
about Z, ,155 men now employed in the hop
fields. That only about one-quarter-
about ,789-are whites; that the others
are Chinese, Japanese and few Indians;
that white men make, if expert and in
dustrious, in excess of s. a day at the
work. The labor is healthful, and not
beyond the capacity of the ordinary man,
and women and children engage in it.
The season is about seven weeks, or
forty-two working days. It is probable
that our contemporaries figures as to
Mongolians employed are too large, and
it is certainly in error as to the amount
made by the hop-pickers. But assume
that one-half of all are Mongolians.
Here. then, we have in our own imme-
diate neighborhood fully 3,577 Bfongolian
alien laborers in our hop fields, displacing
3,57 American workers. to whom we
builders and contributors to all that go to
make up homes, communities, States,
and finally the Nation, but which contri-
button the homes, communities, State
and Nation are deprived of to just the
extent that the alien Orientals are en-
ployed.
That is to say, so far as forty-two days
labor go, and the value of the displaced
American labor to the community of
men is concerned, civilization is robbed
by precisely the value of the labor con-
tribution to it for forty-two days of 3,577
able-bodied workers capable of home.
community, and State and Nation build
ing. Extend the period of time over the
whole year, since the Japanese and Chi
nese viii be employed the whole year,
and we suffer displacement of 3,57
American lsborers, and the deprivation
of the Nation of their contribution to it.
For it will not do TO say that these will
find work of other nature and in other
places. They are displaced completely
so long as the japanese and Chinese find
employment. If the latter were not here
and doing the work that nets them gains,
even though the wage be far below that
the contributing American ought TO have
to meet the demands of our civilization,
then the American workers would
fill their places; at least white workers
would be in their places and most likely
the American citizen.
Is it needful to draw moral? Is not
the teaching of the case of the p-picker
plain, understandable and forcible? Is
it necessary to show in detail how much
better we would build up the country
with American laborers, representing
American civilization and contributing
to State building2
