The Armenian Question.

LONDON, Feb. 5.-In the House OF
Lords to-day Lord Salisbury, speaking
of the references in the Queens speech
10 the Armenian troubles, said that he
would not at present say much about
the Armenian difficulty. inasmuch as the
matter was under investigation. He ex-
pressed doubt, however, whether the pro-
posed inquiries would prove exhaustive
The question was Il thorny one, and the
Government must be careful not TO excite
hopes among any section Of the Armenian
population that they were not prepared TO
see fulfilled. Lord Rosebery said he cor
daily agreed with Lord Salisbury In
,egard to Armenia, in which matter the
British Government acted in accord WIN
the Governments of Russia, France ana
Italy.

The effects produced by the
Million Club train and by the
exhibit at Chicago, says the Leav-
enworth Times, are of the most
substantial kind. Mayor Hook,
who was with the train, says that
not only thousands upon thous-
apds witnessed the display with
admiration, but hundreds of
farmers expressed their intention
of selling out and coming to
Kansas at the first opportunity.
Particularly in illinois, where land
costs 500 to $1l0 per acre, and is not
so productive as Kansas soil, while
the seasons are shorter, agricuitur-
aiists declared they would come to
Kansas. Everywhere were found
aud dispelled the false ideas about
Kansas as a country where drouth
and hot winds made farming
improbable. Farmers all along
the route were astouished at the
ocular evidence of the richness
and fertility of our state.
