tions pertaining to their respective off,

The New York Tribune is authority
for the statement that ex-President
Harrison is to marry Mrs. Dimmock, a
niece Of the late Mrs. Harrison. Mrs.
Dimmock refuses to discuss the re-
port So does Mr. Harrison. 1t seems
hardly probable that the Tribune would
father such a statement unless 1t has
good ground for 1t, but the Tribune is
not infallible. A year or two ago a
similar report was started with refer
ence to Mr.. Harrison and another lady.
but 1t was promptly denied. On an
average of at least once a year Senator
Hill is accused of having matrimonial
intentions-we believe a charge Of that
kind is hanging over him now. Yet
Senator Hill has fooled them all these
many years and General Harrison may
do likewise.

The DeSertiOn of Farms.

A committee appointed to inquire in
TO the causes of agricultural depression
in the state of New York, has made a
report which is of wide interest and
applicable to agricultural communities
generally. The main cause is said TO
be the fact that the cities are growing
very rapidly at the expense OF the
farms. The report says that from 1890
TO 1850 the population OF the country
increased twelve times, while that of
the cities of 5000 Inhabitants, and over.
increased eighty-six times. In 1890 one
thirtieth of the population OF the Unit
ed States lived in cities. but In 1880
nearly one-fourth. This drain upon the
farms is still in progress and is result
ing in leaving large tracts OF lands in
New York state and elsewhere practi-
cally wastes. While the volume of
products is thus being affected ana a
scarcity OF agricultural labor is felt.
the population OF the cities. on the 9TH
er hand, is becoming redundant and in
adequately provided with profitable Ia
Dor until IL is becoming a most serious
burden and a menace TO law and or
der"
The causes OF this desertion OF the
farm for the city are declared to be the
low price of farm products brought
about by the trusts and food gamblers;
the opening OF western land. which has
reduced the demand for and the value
of eastern land; loss of fertility in the
soil; the poorer school advantages in
the country as compared with the op-
portunities I'm the city and the easier
living and comforts of city life and
higher wages when anything like de-
sirable employment is obtained. The
remedies suggested are trusts and
food gambling by the great change op-
orators should be stopped; fertilizers
should be more freely used; schools
should be increased and improved; the
farms should be reduced In size. so AZ

but 10 bring the farm population into

schooner Joseph w. Foster. This ves-

ish agents TO the effect that she was
about TO start on a fiibustering expe-

made and no evidence was found to

Ambassador Bayard has been ban
quoting again. He expresses the hope
that when he leaves England he will
be remembered as having done some
thing to bring England and this coun-
try into sympathy. Our opinion is
that the two nations are not so very
far apart. There were times. during
the rebellion. when England tried to
harm the United States-in instances,
her policy was worse than unfriendly.
But nothing came of 1t; the republic
prevailed just the same. This country
does not need a war; England certainly
does not want one. Apparently, Mr.
Bayard has been active chiefly In say
ing uncomplimentary things about his
country and his countrymen. That is
not the way to bring nations into SYM
pathy; nor by that means will the
ambassador establish friendly relations
between himself and the American
people
