FARMERS LOSSES.
How the Agricultural Interests Have s"f'
frred Since the Advent Of Democracy.

NEW YORK. March lS-Thc Amer
lean Economist to be published to-
morrow, will say:
We here give briefly summary OF
the aggregate losses TO farmers In the
value OF their principal crops, and In
their live stock, since 1892:
Depreciation In Annual Farm Values.

Total annual loss to farmers 81, 49,. ISL. li5
This stupendous loss OF nearly bill.
ion and q half dollars has fallen upon
American farmers since the Mckinley
tariff period Of 1891 and 1892. 1t takes
no account Of the shrinkage in the val"
ue OF the rice crop. OF the crops OF nur-
scrymcn, OF seedsmen, or OF the enor-
nous supply OF farm truck from mar
ket gardens. or OF our dairy products
or hog products.
II is noteworthy that the aggregate
annual shrinkaEe in values is prac-
tically the same for live stock as for the
staple farm crops. This Is interesting
because many were inclined TO attri.
butte the losses in the value OF stock
10 some extraneOus causes. whereas the
fact that both live stock and staple
crops have suffered equally only tends
TO strengthen the belief in the ruinous
effect OF the deadly blight OF Democ"
rRCY upon American farms.

ter that has befallen them since 1892.

the abolition Of jobs and the manage
ment Of the states business on busi-
ness basis. So when the gentlemen
who are discontentsd because the pieces
of patronage pie have been neither large
nor numerous enough supported the,
candidacy Of Mr.. Budd in 1894
they did 80 with the clear understand
ing that he wo1ld be a faithful public
servant and not liberal dispenser of
offices. There was no deception prac-
ticed and there is n .ither right nor
reason in the disappointment which
seems to make unhappy their lives.
The governor strikes the nail Of
truth squarely on the head when he
says "thst it is the misfortune of any
party desiring to carry out reforms
to have the patronage Of the state
at its disposal. Patronage has
been the dsmnation of the party and
of good government" With the exist
ing method, or rather lack of method,
of filing places in the public service
life is made a horror to the executive
of the state, and unless he be a man of
exceptional will power and unswerving
loyalty to his purposes, the good inten-
tions with which he may enter upon
his term of Office find little chance Of
realization; the victory at the polls
which was supposed to be one of prin-
ciples and policies becomes too fire.

IS HE GUILTY?

There are some people in Southern
California who actually seem to think
that, after thorough investigation Of
the case and all of its attendant facts,
Clifton E. Msyne is not guilty OF the
crime of which he has been convicted
In the superior court of this county. If
Mr.. Msyne is guilty he cannot be too
severely punished-twenty-flve years
In the penitentary is light ordeal for
him. II he is innocent, and it is by
perjured testimony that this fearful
crime has been put upon him, 1t is time
that q deceived people knew of it.
The HERALD has elsewhere made q
presentation of few facts in behalf Of
Mayne, the convicted felon. He should
be given hearing, if nothing more.
His story is not all yet told.

NO pLEDGING OF DELEGATES

The Los Angeles Times has nominated
William Mckinley of Ohio for president.
If the Times has its way, California will
appear in the st. Louis convention tied to
the wheel of Mr.. Nc kinley's chariot. We
do not for moment believe the Times
will have its way, but the sending of
pledged delegation to the st. Louis con-
vention is the abandonment of an oppor-
tunity to place California in a position
which would be advantageous during the
four years of administration to follow by
the candidate nominated at St. Louis. The
Times advocacy of MIR. Mckinley is strictly
in the interests of Mckinley and not in the
interest of California. Col. Harrison Gray
Otis is evidently ambitious of the reputation
of having nominated his friend Mckinley,
or at least of having placed California in
the Mckinley column. Attempts are be-
ing made to control the coming state con-
ven,on in the interests of the sugar trust,
or railway corporations, or combination OF
politicians, all of which should he defeated.
Whenever man ia known to be abso-
lutely the boud slave of some candidate
for president, the republicans in Califor-
nia,should keep him at home and send in
his place. some man who will constitute a
member of an unpledged delegation, SO
that the state may be able to place itself
in proper position for some benefit to an
sue from the action of its delegation.--Sac-
remento Record Un Mon.

The HERALp's suggestion that an Ct
fort be made to secure the next Demo
cratic state convention for Lps An
geles continues to elicit general ap-
provsl. With the beginning Of the
week an organization for the purpose
Of making formidable contest before
the state central committee should be
completed. The chances OF Los An

be knocked out, especially in view Of

1t would seem from talk with Charles

from birmingham. Ala, that the move
ment looking to a large emigration from
the southern states to Liberia has taken
practical shape. The International Mi
grafton society of Birmingham has char
tered the steamship Laurada to carry 400
colored people from Savannah TO Monro-
via, Liberia, and she was to sail yesterday.
A special train from Memphis ran last
week through Arkansas, Mississippi, Ala
bama and Georgia, picking up those who
desire to go to Liberia to live. Men, women
and children are taken, the society select
ing men of good character who have had
experience in farming, shoemaking. car
pentering and other mechanical trades.
Landed at Monrovia the new mon will have
to declare their intention of becoming clti-
zens of the republic, after which each FAM
lily will be allotted twenty-five acres of land
free of cost. A temporary home has been
provided at Monrovia for the immigrants
until they are ready to start in their vari-
Gus pursuits. Two hundred negroes who
went out on the Horsa last March are

While visions rare OF other days
Come drifting back to me;

And music born OF earth and skies
Around my spirit sings;
All sounds OF discord, PAIN and strife
Have rounded into tune,
And thorns that pierced and vexed my life
Have changed to flowers of June.
