THE ISLAND IN DISPUTE.
Eng1ands Protection of Zanzibar and
Said n halid's Efforts to Get the Throne

England's Protection of Zanzibar and
Said II halid's Efforts to Get the Throne
FIR, IL the New York Herald
The intentions of England regarding Fan
zihar have been known and looked upon
with interest for a very long time Dur
ing the reign of the late sultan's uncle
Ali Ben Said. the English began the en-
forcement of a firm rule, which they called
proteCtorate. This consisted In making
arrangements with the sultan by which he
was to receive a monthly stipend for his
personal expenses, and proper accounts of
all revenues and expenditures in the va
riouS governmental departments were TO be
kept, all said departments being created
and organized and placed under English
officials.
Under the benign influence Of Sir Gerald
Portal and the British resident Colonel
Hatch, Zanzibar assumed the proportions
OF a paying investment for British funds
The slave trade was vigorously attacked,
but for reasons not destroyed, the liquor
trafhc converted into a licensed business
which in few months added several thou
sands rupees to the protectorate's Golfers;
harbor was built and charges made for
Its use, and even dhows. fishing boats and
small merchant vessels We're numbered
registered and licensed. BY these meas
ures within a short space of time a cor-
siderable surplus of revenue over expendi-
ture was found to have accrued and the
fled with the effects of his British gov
errors tactics.
khllid's First Attempt.
That the apparent satisfaction was not
quite so general as was supposed was
forcibly impressed on the British mind
when, at the death of the sultan Ali Ben
Said, in 1888, an attack was made on the
sultan's palace and determined attempt
to take possession of the throne and over
throw British supreme authority was bare
ly frustrated.
Said khalid, the same man who is now
reported to be making a second attempt
with large following, had been let into
the palace through a back passage by the
sultan'S sister and had closed the gates
He even then had a number of Arabs and
irregulars at his back, and these were with
him in the palace. They refused to open
the doors and palace gates until General
Matthews, the first minister, aided by
body Of English troops and two hundred
English bluejackets, and Colonel Hatch,
with an organized troop of black soldiers
took possession of the square and pointed
their guns at the gates. Then Khalid sur
rendered. He was but youth, and was
treated as such, being, as a correspondent
at the time says, packed off to the resi-
dents house to be dealt with
Should there be no equally Intelligent"
man to put on this stipendiary chrome the
British resident will undoubtedly take
charge, as, indeed, he has practically done
for five years past.

FUN ABOUT THE FARMER,
A Proposition to Turn 1t Into Car

A Proposition to Turn 1t Into CAM
pnign Material for the Democrats.
Tie democratic congressional committee
today received an offer from a prominent
New Yorker and free silver man which
they think, if accepted, will act as a bomb
among the farmers of the west. 1t is
proposition from the free silver New York
er to place through one of the news asso-
Citations a million copies of an article illus
trating how the farmer of today is ridi-
culed by the press Of the metropolis. The
article in question takes up about a page
Of the ordinary country newspaper, and be-
gins by saying that in the earlier days CT
the republic the farmer was regarded as an
uncrowned king, was the theme of poets
ard the most respected of all citizens of
the great American republic, 1t then gives
FAC smiles Of pictures Of the farmer as
made known to the New Workers through
the comic and daily press. The farmer of
the 1unny papers is paraded as something
between jackass and clown, with flow
ing beard and every other characteristic
that Is supposed to Indicate his role as a
"hayseed." and that have become the ster-
eCtyped forms for the artists of the funny
papers.
The article to be spread among the farm
ers contains couple of dozen Of these MIC
lures, and 1t is expected that Mr.. Farmer
for Mr. Mckinley, as it will be shown mai
the papers printing these pictures are
among his supporters.
Inc New Yorker offering this article pro-
poses to pay out of his own pocket all the
cost OF having the million copies placed be-
lore the farmers. The method by which
ne Is to distribute these copies is to have
toiler plate" impressions made of the ar
ticle. and in that form presented to free

will print them in their regular issues the

able portion of the papers supporting him
of holding the farmer up to ridicule, saw

the time upon some Of the leaders of his
campaign the necessity of a change in the
course of newspapers of the large cities of
the east, and declared that every cartoon
picturing the farmer as an absurd hay
seed" was doing his candidacy much in
jury. Evidently the opposition thought SO,
too, and the result is this systematic meth
cd of placing the matter before the farmer
