Zach territory having one delegate and
each state as many delegates as it has
congressman, and two at large. Many
not delegates attend the annual meet
ings. At the last annual meeting
thirty-six states were represented by
delegates and the attendance was from
1900 to 1900. This meeting was attend
ed by the president of the National Ed
itorial association, who said of it that
this congress has been characterized by
strong sense and the absence of charla-
tans and fellows with wheels in their
heads and visionary utopian schemers.
1t was a much ab1er congress than the
one which recently adjourned at Wash
ingtOn. AT the suggestion of the sec
retary of the congress, the British
provinces, the Central and the South
American countries and Mexico have
been invited to send delegates to the
meeting in this city and the invitations
have been SO generally accepted and
the delegates are men of such caliber
that it is safe to say that the meeting
in this city next October, the first pam
American agricultural parliament, will
be the ablest and most dignifed agri-
cultural assemblage in our history.
The Farmers National congress diff
fers materially from other agricultural
organizations. It has neither dues nor
salaries. 1t is welded to eternal pow
erty. It is strictly non-political and
non-partisan Hence it offers little to
attract the demagogue or broken-down
politician. It does not seek to form
new party, but to work through exist
ing organizations. It's officers say:
1.-THE bankers and butchers, the bar
bers and bakers meet in organizations
to further their interests without quar-
reling about the tariff or trying to
make a new political party; why should
not the farmers be able to do the same
thing?" The American Agriculturist
says that 1.-The Farmers National con-
gress has always asserted its non-par-
tisan, non-political character, and has
made its assertion good. To this is
doubtless owing its great influence
with law-mal1ing bodies" Senator
Gordon says that it has more influence
with congress than all other agricul-
tural organizations combined. AS the
Indiana Farmer says: Legislators
often declare that they are ready to
legislate for the farmers if they know
what the farmers want, and they seem
ready to take the resolutions adopted
by this body as representing the wishes
of farmers"
AS not all of the foreign governments
have yet appointed delegates, and as a

WAKEENEY KANSAS, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1895.

transaction of public as well as Of pri.
vate business. The wires which con-
meet the capitol and the white house
with all the departments form one con-
tinuous circuit There are two of them,
to cover the chance that one may get
out of order. They are under the
charge of the superintendent of public
buildings and grounds, and 81, 900 a
year is appropriated to keep them in
repair. They are strung in ordinary
fashion, on poles, and the thirteen
operators who send messages over them
are all in the pay of Uncle Sam. There
is one at the house and another at the
enate end of the capitol. Both ara
stenographers, taking in shorthand
telegrams dictated to them by busy
legislators. Many congressman use
these wires largely for communicating
with the departments. The conven-
ience costs them nothing and is a great
aid in the business which they are
obliged to transact with various bu-
reaus. They have appointments to ask
about, inquiries to put as to how PEN
sion cases stand, questions to offer as
to whether such and such papers are
on file, ETC., ad infnitum.
While each of the executive depart
ments must pay large annual telegraph
bills out of its own appropriation, the
expense is particularly felt by the state
department., because all of the diplo-
matte correspondence is carried on by
cablegrams. Inasmuch as the navy
department uses the cables freely for
communication with our warships,
that department expends very nearly as
much for electric service as the depart
ment Of state. The secretary of war is
in constant telegraphic communication
with the generals commanding our
military departments, and the expense
is quite large, but, of course, much less
than either the state or navy depart
ments. The post Office department, in
terror department, agricultural depart
ment and department of justice have
very little use for the telegraph, as
compared with the other four depart
ments, but the treasury depart
ment usually keeps telegraph opera
tor busy during every official day, com
municating with collectors and other
agents of the big department.
The navy department has a chart Of
the cable lines of the world, and it Is
interesting as well as astonishing to
note how the bed of the ocean is COW
cred with these conductors of domesti-
Gated lightning. Ten submarine cables
connect the continent of North America
with European countries. Boston and
New York are each the terminus of
three of these cables. South America
is connected with Europe by two cables
running from Pernambuco, Brazil. to
Lisbon, Portugal. The entire cont1-
nents of Africa and South America are
surrounded by submarine cables. They
do not string wires on poles in those
countr es along their coast lines, but
use cables altogether.
The weather bureau and hydro
graphic Office use the telegraph for the
purpose of receiving reports from
trained observers, SO that predictions
of storms may be made and telegraphed
to the world,
The weather bureau of the agricul-
tural department uses the wires for

can parliament, the Chicago Inter
Ocean says: 1T hardly is necessary to
say that the Inter Ocean heartily ap-
proves of the project. Whatsoever
tends to bring representatives of the
great agricultural interests of the world
together is deserving of approval
Farming is now trade of national and
international relationship to all other
trades. The interests of the modern
farmer are worldwide. Therefore a
pan-American agricultural parliament
is not only desirabl but necessary
The officers of the congress are: Pres
ident, Hon. B. F. Clayton, OF Iowa, one
Of the largest farmers Of the country
and for eight years secretary of the
congress; vice president, Maj. G. M.
Ryals, of Georgia, one of the largest
truck farmers in the south; secretary,
John M. Stahl. of Chicago, the leading
agricultural writer of the country; as
sistant secretary, Col. w. G. WILDLY, of
Atlanta, an old newspaper man and
successful planter.
The Farmers Call said of the last
meeting Of the congress: 1.-The dele
gates came from Montana to Florida
and Texas to Maine. Such a body of
men, coming such long distances, and
pledged against political action, must
be in dead earnest and have the true
interests of the agricultural classes at
heart. No political or financial advan-
tage could come from attendance at
the meeting, hence the delegates were
perforce actuated by patriotic motives,
and it is no surprise that the delibera-
tions of the congress were character
lied by a high tone and distinguished
by lofty motives" It is hoped and an
ticipated that the approaching meeting
viii justify as high praise and in the
language of the Atlanta journal,
mark the beginning of a new era in
the history OF agriculture.

Although the telegraph had been in
practical operation for twenty years
and was regarded as one of the neces-
sites of the business world, there was
no telegraphic instrument in the white
house until the autumn preceding the
Inauguration of President Hayes. The
election news of November, 1875, was
ticked into the executive mansion for
Gen. Grant, and the warrior statesman
went to bed that night with the under
standing that Samuel j. Tilden had
been elected to succeed him as presi-
dent of the United States.

ment between election and inauguration

IN GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP.
the transmission of cipher reports, sent
in daily, by observers who are stationed
in every degree of latitude and longi-
tude within the boundaries of the re-
public, and at various elevations above
the level of the sea. There are 153 of
these signal stations, and the observers
in charge of them send in four reports
each day. Their cipher code is very
peculiar, but very effective. The cour1-
try expects accurate daily weather
prognostications, just as we expect ac-
curate accounts of business in the ex-
ecutive departments.
The postmaster general believes that
the government ought to control all
telegraphic communication, just as the
government controls all communica-
tion through the mails. The late post
master general, Mr.. Wanamalzer, was
very heartily in favor of that procedure,
but was never able to induce congress
to permit HIM to accomplish his plans
and desires. Whether the proposition
is wise one or not every reader will
determine for himself; but it is worthy
of comment that the telegraphic bust
ness now done bv the executive depart
ments is very costly; the official use Of
the telegraph is growing more neces-
sary annually; and it might be more
economical for the government, and
economical fors individuals, if the gov
ernment should take possession of the
entire telegraphic business of the ma
ton. SMITH ID. Fry.
