Trying to Foo, she Farmers.

The McKinleyites are trying to make
the farmers believe that the slight decline
in the amount of our agricultural exports
during the past year was 10 some way
caused by the Wilson tariff. In order to
coax the voters who left the republican
party in 1892, on account of the high
taxes Of the Mckinley law. back into the
protection fold, the agents of the trusts
and monopolies, which rob the farmer
through high prices, are promising that
II the tariff OF 1890 is restored our exports
Of farm products will be greatly increas-
ed. How or why this will be done they
do not explain.
Is there an intelligent farmer Ia the
United States who believes that by put
ting heavier taxes on foreign goods we
can compel the people Of other countries
to take more Of our surplus products? Is
1t not likely that increased tariff taxation
will have the effect Of diminishing our
sales abroad, since it will prevent the
foreigners sending us their goods in re-
turn for what they buy? Does any one
suppose that by making Americans pay
more for imported goods, the people of
other countries will eat more wheat, or
meats, or wear more cotton?
There Is one way, and one way only,
In which McKinleyism can increase our
exports Of farm products. Foreigners
buy from the United States only when
the prices Of our products are lower than
those OF competing countries. 1.-THE Nc
Kinley tariff 10 restored, and II the prices
OF wheat, cotton, corn, meats, etc., 90
down under 1t as they did after it's en-
actment in 1890, then the foreigners may
buy larger gu antilles Of those articles. /
that a condition of affairs which the
farmers are anxious for? II 90, they can
have it. But they had better think it
over and figure up how they would be
helped by policy which would mean the
shipment OF their products at loss.

Stephen Judson, chairman, and Elmer
G. Million, secretary Of the democratic
state convention. have just issued under
the auspices Of the democratic state CEN
trail committee the following sel!-explan-
atory greeting to the democratic party OF
this state:
''The regularly elected representatives
Of the democratic party OF the state of
Washington in convention assembled at
the city of Ellensbure. In the interests Of
reform, have effected union ~~;;sh what
are known and designated as the 'peo-
pies party and the free silver party,
and have placed ticket In the field
worthy OF the support Of all the people
regardless OF past party affiliations. and
to which every democrat should give bis
enthusiastic and unqualified support to
the end that the principles Of the Chica-
go platform Of 1896 shall be carried out
and the election Of that champion Of the
people. William Jennings Bryan, for
president, assured.
by that UNANIMOUSLY PARTISAN legisla-
ton OF the republican party o law has
been placed upon the statute books OF
this state whereby union of the reform
forces is prevented and their amalgama-
tion and consolidation thwarted by al.
lowi ng only recognized political parties
to place ticket in the field; thereby pre-
venting combination of the names in
one ticket, and compelling the reform,
forces OF the state to choose, II they
would act with safety, one OF the names
OF the recognized political parties for the
name OF the ticket to be certified to the
secretary Of state. Believing that the
election Of the national ticket is OF SUI
preme importance and the principles in.
volved OF more moment than anything
else, we have been compelled as patriotic
citizens to be liberal and have therefore
consented that this ticket shall be known
and designated upon the official ballot az
the peoples party ticket.
"The statute law OF this state makes
this step necessary and for the sake OF
union with the reform elements Of this
state we make this concession. With
William Jennings Bryan for president
and Arthur Sewall for vice president az
our national standard bearers and with
that champion Of the people and foe Of
corporate greed, James Hamilton Lewis,
for congress; with that ineorruptible jur-
list, John B. Reavis. for judge OF the su.
preme court; that native son Of Wash.
ington for public printer, and with those
sterling democrats, N. I. Cation and 1.
N. Maxwell, for electors, together with
the great principles involved in this cleo
ton, we call upon every democrat to rally
to the support OF the entire ticket and in
sure it's triumphant election; and we
pledge you that the UNANIMOUSLY partisan
features of the election law producing
this confusion shall be repealed"

The Hospital speaks as follows regard
ing the color Of the negro race: at has
occurred to writer in an American medi-
cal newspaper to discuss the question OF
the blsckness Of the negro's skin. 1t
will be revelation to many to learn that
the baby negro is not born black. Even
30 long ago as 1865, LeCat noticed that
the newly born negro is OF a reddish color.
That observation has since been frequent
ly confirmed; and it is now pretty widely
known that, though the baby negro be-
gins to follow in the footsteps Of his par
ents as regards color within few days
after birth, yet at the moment Of birth he
shows disposition to aspire toward the
civilized races, being white, or at worst.
red in hue. II is generally assumed that
the primest OF all the causes of negro's
blackness is the hot sun beneath whose
more or less vertical rays lie is doomed to
live. There is, however, physiological
condition OF the skin which difierentiates
that organ from the integument Of Eu-
ropean. The negro says our American
scientist, possess more developed vas
cnlar sudoriparous system than we do
In other words, be has more and larger
sweat glands, and they are more literally
supplied with blood. By means of these
he perspires much more abundantly.
This condition is possibly contributory
factor in his blackness. 1t is an import
ant element in the investigation to re-
member, however, that the blacklist OF all
black people are almost invariably 70 und
under certain very definite climatic con-
ditions. That is to say they are found
where great heat, strong light, and much
atmospheric moisture are in combination.
For example. the blacklist negroes in
Africa are those who live in Guinea,
where the greatest amount Of rain annu-
ally falls On the other hand, the peo-
pie who live in the dry section OF the
Nubisn Desert have red SKINS Heat,
light and humidity are all causes Of pig
mentation, and II to these we add the
fact Of the highly developed vascular
sudoriparous system of the negro, we
have travelled as far as our American in
vestigator is to help us. The question Is
one of genuine scientific interest; and
perhaps, when the Matabele, and the
Dervishes, and the Soudanes have all
settled down quietly in the ways Of civil
ization and order. science may turn her
attention in this direction and tell us
much that is both new and interesting
about those races who differ so markedly
from ourselves in color, character and
many other particulars.
