An Interestinr ansst!on.

The question which four pOpuiist cand--
da--s for congress n Mississippi have
raised In contest for seats in the next
congress. which are held by democrats.
IS on interesting ONE. These contestants
claim that the election was an Illegal one
because "a large number Of blacks and
few whites were not permitted 20 vote,
being unable 20 comply With the prop
erty and educational qualifications 81 the
new state constitution.
The constitution provides that only those
citizens shall have the right 10 vote who
have certain amount or property and
who can read the constitution and give a
correct Interpretation Of .ts most import
ant provisions. The contestants say that
the state could not legally adopt "a coast:-
tuition that places such restrictions upon
the right of suffrage. IN support Of their
position they refer to the act Of congress
by which the state OF Mississippi was re-
admitted into the union 10 1870. lu that
act q is provided that The constitution or
Mississippi shall never Be- SO amended or
changed as to deprive ans citizen or class
of citizens Of the United States Of the
right TO vote who are entitled to vote
by the constitution herein recognized
The constitution that was recognized 10y
the act Of congress readmitdug the state
was framed by republicans and adopted
I'm 1859. and II permitted about every male
citizen Of the south TO vote.
The question TO be- decided en- the con
test is this: Has congress authority under
the constitution 20 make any such pro-
vision relative 90 the suffrage OF M.ssis-
ppl as It d!d in the act Of 1870: II 90 has
then it can regulate the suffrage in every
other state, in any way e. pieases. and -
Fl has not, then the question which the
popuHst candidates Of Mississippi has
raised must be decided against them.
Every other state in the union has the
right to say what qualifications shall DE
necessary FOR the exercise Of the right
of suffrage SO long as no discrimination
Is made con account Of race, color or
previous condition of serv.tudc." and 10
deny to Mississippi that right would be
to discriminate against her. Such DIS
elimination is not permissible In a union
of states having equal rights.

Populiss Aims.

Two more or less Important facts were
developed at tine populist national con
vcution az ST. Louis the other day. They
are. first. that the party has a very eN-
allied opinion OF its power; and, second
that there is likely to be lively scramble
for the populist nomination for presi-
dent
when the party craft was first launched
there were few voters who would take pas
sage in it. To swell the list and make
respectable showing of numbers. all the
political rag-tags and bob-tails We're in
vited to get aboard and be welcomed
The socialists, the universal suffragists,
the single-taxers the prohibitionists, and
about all the other stragglers and kick
ers climbed in. Last year. through
concentration of circumstances that are
not likely to occur again. the populist
ship did fair business. And now the
bosses are in favor OF dumping overheard
the ballast of political freaks The freaks
are regarded as an incumberance now;
once they We're II necessity With the
prohibitionists out of the way. the for
etgn-bCrn farmers OF the northwest HllSHl
be induced to join the party. With the
socialists out of the way a great percen-
tage of the agricultural population might
be persuaded to accept populism. II is
mighty hard to make a socialist out of
a farmer who owns his land. He wants
to keep and enjoy it, and the socialists
want to take it away from him.
Holding such views as these, the lead
ers OF populism at St. Louis the other day
denounced the prohibitonists as crauks
and the socialists as sneaks. A prominent
populist told a st. Louis paper after the
adjournment of the convention that the
majority sentiment was in favor of kick
ing out the cranks" as soon as it could be
safely done"
As to the party's presidential nomination
possibilities Senators Allen and Kyle of
Kansas, Gen. Weaver, Gov. Lewellng of
Kansas, and Senator Jones of Nevada
were the men most talked about in that
connection. Kyle appeared to be the IA
vorite. though each of those mentioned
had strong -lunged hackers.

To Take the Place of Cotton.

Southern farmers are Interested now
in finding new crops that viii help them
out Of the scent cotton difficulty. They
want. ana must have in order to get
profits. a crop or crops that can bee grown
on cotton land. and without any consider
able outlay for fertilizers or new patterns
Of farm implements Two new crops that
have been commented 20 cotton planters
by farmers who have tried them are
canaigre and cassa1a. The former is be-
ing grown in Texas and the latter in
Florida. Zach will grow on cotton land.
ana no special fertilizers or tools are
necessary TO their propagation.
Canaisre IS a Spanish name. and is ap-
piled TO a uber. the botanical name OF
which is " Rmex hymeuoseDalus." 1t
grows wild IN several Of the southwestern
states. II is valuable for its fannie acid
Of which IL contains from 3 TO 80 per
cent Oak and hemlock banks contain
only 90 % per cent Of the acid. The tan
uic acid obtained from canagre roots is
said 20 b. superior TO that obtained from
any other source and is especially adapt
ell TO tanning shoe uppers. fine saddlery
and fancy feathers 10 is also used in
preparing dye stuGs The roots are plant
ed very much after the manner Of plant
iu- Irish potatoes. An acre carefully ir-
risated and cultivated Will yield from
twenty To- thirty tons OF green roots.
which, when dried for shipment, viii
shrink 20 seven TO ten tons. The value
of cauaiere roots properly dried in north
ern markets Is S25 to $50 a ton, and in
Europe SD 10 $50 tor. Thus far the
supply in tine foreign market has not
been equal TO the demand. According
TO the present prices and demand for
canaigre roots, the value Of the yield
per acre would be a minimum of $40,
with probability Of the value going to
S225 There is in Texas q plant for eX-
tracing the acid from the roots and ia
the vicinity the roots bring better money
returns than the amounts quoted. Tho
young shoots OF the plant are eaten WITH
d relish by sheep. cattle and hogs The
c9naigrc also possesses medical proper
ties that are valued by tho Mexicans. Il
is a purgative. having tine general taste
and properties of rheubarh.
The cassava also is "a tcber, and is es-
pcciauy rich in starch. \ Sumner GloD
correspondent OF the Manufacturers Rec
ORD says that many of the farmers around
that place make their own starch from
the c5ssava 10y grating it and pressing
out the juice, which, when dried. makes
a starch superior TO the ordinary article
kept in the stores" the plant pro-
duces five or six times as much to the
acre as the potato and is an excellent
stock food. with such profile and rich
starch bearer az hand, it seems that the
Floridians-and South Georgians, also
might turn 1t to good use in meat-mak-
ins; and they might set MP some small
starch factories. Starch is staple ar
tclc of commerce. The demand is steady
and will never 6row less. The price is
not high; SIN its production might be
found more remunerative than the pro-
duction Of cotton at 81 an acre.
