wheat from Chile, Turkey, Roumania,
Egypt, India and Canada. France grew
more Of her own wheat supply in 1894
than in 1892, buying less from all coun-
tries except Russia and Northern Africa.
She bought upward of 25, 900 bush
els less from the the United States, prac-
tically the total amount Of her dimished
IMPORTS. Germany also bought about
100000 bushels less wheat in 1894 than
in 1892, taking 10000 900 bushels less
wheat from the United States, but buy
ing considerable more from Roumania,
Russia and Argentina, her purchases
from Argentina increasing by nearly the
same quantity that her purchase from
the United States decreased. In Sep
TENDER, 1894, GU exports Of agricultural
products constituted 65.64 per cent. of
all exports. This year, in September,
they formed but 6O.8l per cent, aloss Of
4.S3 per cent. In September, 1892, they
were 1858 per cent, showing a loss this
year of 11.72 per cent. In September,
1891, they were 77.88 per cent. of all ex-
ports, showing a loss of 17.O7 for last
September as compared with 1891. This
gives farmers an idea Of the manner in
which the ree-traders help them to cap
ture the markets of the world. In
actual value this years September loss
was nearly so per cent, the shipment
Of agricultural products in September,
1891, being worth s63, 739, 533 and this
year, in September, only $4,000, 952, a
decrease Of $s29, OBS, 581 in a month.

Down in Texas the other day, there
was a lynching bee. It was by nc
means the first lynching bee which had
been held in Texas. Probably it will not
be the last one. But it was one of those
hasty affairs, in which the chief steeple-
chasers had neglected to familiarize
themselves with the appearance of the
negro of whom they were in pursuit.
After an exciting chase through cactus
and chaparall, theShuntsmen come upon
a negro in full fight. This was not
strange, for it ais said that whenever a
lynchingIbee begins to buzz, metaphor
cally speaking, the majority Of the col
ored population of the state strike for
the high grass. For, in the language of
the eloquent Col. Brandygort, lone of
'em is as good as another for lynching
purposes, and a d-n sight better"
This is a philosophical way of looking
at the matter, which is induced by the
NATURALIZATION peculiar to lthe state
The flying negro was speedily rounded
up, and hanged without ceremony.
Then it was discovered that he was the
wrong man. He was cut down, and a
hasty apology made, but it was too late
to be of much avail, for the spirit of the
victim had fled. The party, it is re.
ported, was greatly depressed. Not out
~ - 49,
but because there had been a delay OF
an hour in the pursuit of the original
object Of their quest. Texas, it will be
remembered, is the state in which an
extra session of the legislature was
called to prevent Il prizefight.

LET US BE

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving. Laying
aside the cares and duties of daily life,
the people of the nation are called upon
by the chief executive of the nation, and
by the executives Of the several states, to
unite in rendering thanks for whatever
blessings may have come to them in the
past, exclusive of the democratic party.
The simple fact of thankfulnes is com
paratively inexpensive, and requires no
great mental or physical effort. There
is no condition in life which is not better
and more to be desired than some other
condition. There is no station in life
which is not above and superior to some
other station. There is no sorrow SO
acute but is has some element Of consol-
alton to temper it, and soften it. There
is no gloom SO dense but it is occasion
ally pierced by some ray of light. Even
boomers have their good qualities.
It is customary to celebrate Thanksgiv-
ing with turkey and various other deli
cacies of a high degree of edibility.
This is we'll; for th%ankfulness is never
SO easy as after a well ordered dinner.
The genuine spirit of thankfulness is a
delightful sensation, and it colors the
whole world with a brighter, cheerier
tint. It endows our friends, who may
seem imperfect at other times, with the
attributes of angels, and extenuates the
shortcomings Of our enemies. Such are
some Of the effects Of a genuinely thank
full spirit. And them, on the other
hand, the sensation which some persons
mistake for a spirit of thankfulness is
nothing whatever but a pain in the
stomach, and its manifestations are in
accordance.
Let us, then, attempt the genuine
spirit Of thankfulness. AS Mrs. Part
ington might say, let the day be passed

ONE of the interesting features of the
present enforcement crusade which is
stirring up things in Sioux Falls, S.. D..
is a letter by Rev. D. B. Scott, pastor Of
the Congregational church and one OF
the ablest pulpit orators in the state.
Mr.. Scott takes the position that the
prohibition law is in advance of public
sentiment and is for that reason ineff.
cient. He says: "Men are too busy
and too we'll intrenched in traditional
habits to expect len of sentiment
on this question Of using intoxicants as
a beverage. This fact makes the prohi.
bition of the sale of alcohol as a 'bever.
age utopian and unavoidable. To try il
is to legislate toward the impossible. II
is to waste ammunition on invulnerable
forts. It is to do nothing by trying tc
do too much. To retain a law in ink
which is tramped in the mire in society
is to unwittingly aid in belittling all law
State laws, whether statutory or consti
tutional, are tied together-when il
d~isrespected all suffer. When the pro
hibition law is dragged down, laws
against arson, theft and murder come
with it. Gangrene in one limb effects
all limbs. Nothing is accomplished by
abusing people who do not see through
our eyes. There is no persuasion il
! venomous exhibits. There is no logic il
a club. There is no victory for tn
right in cherishing feelings that ar
wrong. We cannot cure scientific op
thalmia with a whip. Sobriety has beef
wounded in the house of its friends"

IT is doubtful if any one will question
the wisdom of the decision of the Min
nesota supreme court in the Hayward
case. There is probably as little doubt
of his guilt as of that of any criminal
ever convicted. And now the quicker
the penalty of the law is inflicted, the
better for the interests of justice. The
man has had the advantage every legal
quip and bubble in the making of his
defense. He is entitled to no further
delay than that demanded by the die
tatcs Of common humanity. Let the
warrant of the law be carried out as
speedily as possible.

SUMMARIZED s%uccinctly, the gist of
Mr.. Debs' first speech is that hereafter
he intends to keep out of Jail.

We are grieved to learn, from the
esteemed North Dakota Independent,
that 'the most fatal accident that ever
befell the democratic party was its vic
tory in 1892, on the eve of a panic, with
loud promises and little fulfillment.'
An accident which is fatal is, indeed,
sad enough, but the accident which is
"most fatal'' is surely the saddest of all
calamities. In the excessively dead con-
dition in which this s%uperlative of fatality
must have left the party, the TRIBUNE
desires to express its earnest sympathy.

counts for the shrinkage ofover thirteen
per cent. in freight earnings and over
eleven per cent. in passenger earnings Of
our railroads between 1898 and 1894,
when the country felt, for the first time
in a generation, the. whitening touch ola
free-trade party in full power in the
national councils. 1t will account for
vastly greater shrinkages in these partic-

The Washington Post does not think
the coming session of congress will be a
short one. The business Of the national
government, legislative, executive, and
judicial, has increased with the growth
of the country, but the increase in the
work Of congress has been much greater
than in the length of it's sessions. New
departments have been added to the ex-
ecutive branch, and new courts to the
judicial, but the legislative assembly re-
mains the same, except that the mem
bership of each house has been increased
and it's capacity for rapid work has been
necessarily reduced thereby. The fol-
lowing table shows the date of adjourn

AN AMAZED INDIAN CHIEF.
Two Stars Introduction to the kaleidoscope
and the Photograph.

rwo Stars Introduction to the kaleidoscope
and the Photograph.
Probably no Indian who ever visited
Washington to counsel with the great
father returned to his tribe better satis-
fed with the results of his trip than the
Sisseton Sioux Two Star. He not only
accomplished the object of his mission,
but he was entertained in style that
falls to the lot of few of the nations
wards. Agent Keller was with him, as
we'll as the interpreter, Joe Brown. The
latter, by the way, is a somewhat notable
figure himself. He is a son of that Ma
jor Brown who commanded the troops
at the battle Of Birch Cooley during
the Sioux outbreak He has lived all
his life among these Indians and now
keeps large store on the reservation.
Two Star was sent here by his tribe
to ask the immediate payment to them
of $199, 200 of their principal now i'll
the custody of the United States. This
sum amounts to $1,000. 900. The In
dians are in very destitute circumstances
this winter, owing to an almost COM
plete failure of their crops, and the in
terest due them is not sufficient to carry
them over until next fall. The impair
ment of the principal is matter which
by law rests entirely with the president.
In this case he has promised to follow
the recommendation of the commission
or of Indian affairs, which is to the ef-
feet that the grant be made.
1t is somewhat singular fact that,
although Two Star was one of General
Silbey S scouts and has always associated
with the whites upon terms Of the
friendliest intimacy, he cannot speak a
word of English. His enjoyment Of the
white mans amusement is, however,
none the less keen. Senator Kyle's clerk
Duncan Mcfarland, took him in to see
the kinetoscope. AS he looked in upon
the picture in motion look Of amaze
ment, not unnlixed with degree of
CONSERVATION, crept over his face. He
stepped back and looked around, above
and below the case to find out what
caused the exhibition. 1t was some time
before he could be persuaded to again
apply the eye to the aperture, and when
the machine stopped with click the
| noble red man jumped as if he had
| heard the warwhoop of some of his
| tribal enemies.
He was equally amazed, but none the
less pleased, with the phonograph and
insisted upon having selection by tie
Marine band repeated. He was taken tc
an amateur athletic and gymnastic Der.
| formance at the Columbia Athletic clut
and witnessed the exhibition Of skill
and prowess with a delight that was al
most childlike. Just before his depar
ture for the west Two Star said to oul
correspondent:

A DESPERATE STRUGGLE.
Captain Jack Crawford's Midnight Adven
ture With an Apache Indian.

Captain Jack Crawford's Midnight Adven-
ture With an Apache Indian.
When within a few feet of where l
stood, the stalwart savage, his eyes
cleaning with hatred, lifted his knife
and sprang toward me. leaped for
ward to meet him and succeeded in
grasping the hand which held the weap-
on, and with grip like wise held to
it. He clinched with me- and terrible
struggle ensued. We fell to the ground
and rolled over and over i'll our desper-
ate struggle for the supremacy, yet
clung to his wrist, for my life depended
on preventing him from using the knife.
In our struggle l noted that we were
nearing the brink of the precipice, and
hoped we would go over, for death in
that manner was preferable to being
slaughtered by savage hand, and there
was keen satisfaction in the thought
that my enemy would die with me.
Nearer and nearer we rolled in our fear
full struggle for the mastery, endeav-
oring to roll over the brink, he to pre-
vent it, until at last, to my great satis-
faction, felt the edge Of the cliff begin
to crumble beneath me, and down we
went.
We struck the bottom heavily, and to
my astonishment neither of us seemed
to be greatly injured. fell almost un.
derneath him, and in a moment he sue
ceeded i'll getting me on my back and
sat astride of my prostrata form. He
had dropped his knife in our fall, and
seizing me by the long hair near each
car began to beat my head against the
ground in an endeavor to stun me into
insensibility.
Thump! thump! thump! my head was
beaten against the ground, and an angry
voice greeted my ears.
"I'll teach you to grab me that way
| and choke me half to death (thump
thimp!) and then roll out of bed with
me. (Thump thumpD What's the mat
ter with you? Are you crazy?''
1t was my wife. She sat astride O.
| mo, and at almost every word gave my
head thump against the carpeted fool
| of our bedroom.
1t was all hideous dream. In my
desperation | had seized her, and We
had a terrible struggle, finally falling
out Of bed upon the floor. r.-Captair
