death or conversion. The Armenians at
Aghia paid the Kurds Fl $50 TO avert an at

scribing the pillage and burning OF hun

United States cruiser Marblehead visited
the coast at Pavas and demanded from the
authorities the surrender of an Armenian

He and his wife were promptly delivered

LONDON. Dec. 1.-THE Times prints
dispatch this morning from correspond
ent in Caracas, giving the result of an in
terview he had with President Crespo, Of
Venezuela. The President said that he I'M
derstood that the question of the outrage
on British Guiana police and the boundary
question were to be treated distinctly as
between Great Britain and Venezuela, but
he declined to discuss the British note on
the subject. He adds that the Venezuelan
officer who had arrested the British officers
would be punished for exceeding his in
structions, and that the Englishmen would
be compensated. He was unable. he said.
to see any reason for British Intervention.

BERLIN, Dec. H1O.-In the Reichstag to-
day the Chancellor, Prince Hohenlohe. de-
MED that the resignation Of Baron Won
Koeller late Minister Of ,thd Interior. was
connected with the Social Democratic agi-

special anti-Socialist legislation, but, he
added, the government would administer
the existing laws so as to protect the state
and society. In conclusion Prince Hohen-

lister of the Interior, comforting upon him
the Order OF the Red Eagle as proof Of his
continued good will.
Several largely attended Socialist meet
ings were in session at midnight. Herren
Liebknecht, Bebel and Singer addressed
the meetings. which all adopted identical
resolutions protesting against the recent
dissolution of the Socialist clubs by the
government.

THERE was in the year 1894 a decrease
in the total immigration of about $780,
600, as compared with the preceding
year. Hard times and lack of work
were the causes. So far as mere num-
bers go, the decrease was a remarkable
one-being, in fact, not much less than
a third of the whole. But while the
number is small, the quality remains
almost unchanged. The percentage of
those able to read their own language
a very fair test of general intelligence
remains exactly the same. The pro-
portion of those having no occupation
has decreased only trifie. In other
respects there is either no improve
ment or a very slight one. 1t is, surely,
evident enough that some care in ad-
hitting aliens is needed. Bills were
brought before the last congress by the
immigration Restriction league to put
a head tax of few dollars on immi-
grants, and to exclude absolutely all
between the ages Of IA and 60 who
could not read some language. Such a
law would have excluded nearly fifth
of those who came in last year. Other
advocates of restriction cali attention
to abuses in the carrying out of the
present laws and declare no new re-
strictions are needed. but only strict
enforcement of those now existing.
Whatever the exact methods may be, it
is clear that in some way the nation
has a right to assure itself of the pos
session of a reasonable degree of in
telligenee, honesty and capability
among those who wish to claim its per-
manent protection.

IF there is any one thing that is
more amusing than something else it
is the antics of the Republican politi-
cal leaders and journals in trying to
locate on which side of the money
question public sentiment of the rank
and file OF the party viii array itself.
They one week declare for bimetalism
and the next for monometslism. A
great many are not s''toting fair" and
are lodging the question until they
can get some idea Of the cat hop.
There are only about two editors of
Republican newspapers in the Sixth
district who have the manhood to come
out fiat-footed and declare their con
viotions in no uncertain language and
they are Conway of the Norton Cham
pion and Dodge of the Boloit Gazette.
The balance of the mess are waiting
for a tip from headquarters.

ONE thing about the free coinage of
silver republic of Mexico is rarely, if
ever mentioned. It is this: The alb
undance and cheapness of its money
has so stimulated industry and manu-
featuring that now its imports are prac-
tically nil, and its exports growing
larger every year. Only a few years
back all its manufactured goods we're
imported. If financial legislation can
do this much for a semi civilized ma
ton, what could it not do for a nation
like the United States that embraces
the highest grade of inventive genius,
coupled with resources no other coun-
try enjoys?

In the Laughlin-Harvey debate, MIR.
Harvey shows up the falacy of Prof.
Laughlin's argument that gold would
be driven out of the country and the
country flooded with silver, when he
showed that it would take but two of
our modern ships to carry all the silver
in existence anywhere in the world,
and that, if it we're all coined into
standard silver dollars of 41215 grains,
there would not be dollars enough to
buy the farm products of America for
a single year; that England must trade
with us or starve, and, as all the silver
would be absorbed in a single year,
gold or other products must necessarily
come here to be exchanged for the nee
essaries of life.

The heavy rains that fell in the west
last week have put a different aspect
on the crop outlook, Many fields that
were supposed to be ruined have i'm
proved to such an extent that at least
half crop is looked for, and many
others that was expected to make only
partial crop will come in for a big
yield, As the price of cereals will be
high this year more money will be rea-
lied from the growing crops than the
one harvested in 1892. If any section
of this country needs a good crop and
good prices it is the west. For two
years it has practically raised nothing,
its debts have increased, its property
decreased, and its inhabitants brought
to the very verge of ruin.

Many Years ago the stock OF ranch
boom was at its greatest height. The
cattle and horse industry was very
profitable. Eastern states were hunt
ed over for breeding stock in the line
of yonng heifers and bulls, and big
prices we're paid for them. The great
plains teemed with cattle. The supply
was so great that a fail in price was
the result. Cattle Of all kinds rapidly
declined, Many thought that few
years would thin out the surpIus and
then prices would advance. The de-
preston has continued until nov.
Cows and heifeFs have been sold of
until it is impossible to produce enough
good steers to supply the market. It is
hard to buy steers now at any fair
price. Those that have good COWS and
heifers can realize good prices. The
low water mark has passed and the
flowing in Of the tide has commenced.
Cattle must. from now on, command
good prices. Good breeding stock from
now on must be demand. No farmer
should breed from anything but estab-
lished blood. The scrub bull, as we'll
as the males Of hogs, horses and sheep,
should be ignored. Those that hung
on to good blooded stock viii from now
on get good figures for the same.
