With Which the People Of Ger
 many Are Confronted
ANOTHER SIDE PRESENTED
Reciprocity May Not Afford tho
 Desired Relief
Europe May Be Compelled to Soildi- fly Itself Against tho United States to Check the Flow Of Gold HitherWard.

Berlin, Oct 16.-Soon after the new United States tariff wen5 into effect officials of the American embassy in formed the German government tha the United States was willing to be gin negotiations for a reciprocit treaty under clauses three and fou No answer of any kind has thus far
 been made, tbut preparations are actually making to open negotiations, although the pace is very slow. The question is being thoroughly consfd- cred in the imperial departments of interior and finance, as well as in the German foreign of,ce. Officials of that department of the government are being engaged in collecting and not only the effects of the new tariff of the United States upon the different branches of German industry, but with a view of the possibility Of ex- tending new branches of goods into German exports.
 The National Zeitung says" Ev- erybody has known that the Dngley tariff bill would injure German indus tries and the question is what can be done on the German side to neu ralize the injuries. A tariff such as zhe Agrarians want would ony render the situation more acu.e''
 The Deutch Zeitung, the 1cading Agrarian organ, after speaking nf the continual flow of money from Europe to America, says: 'sIf it should prove that commercial intercourse between Europe and the United States con- tinued as at present to neeessitate an outflow of gold to America and a chronic stiffening of the European money market, European countries which this year will have to pay about 5.000,000 marks for American cereals in excess of their experts, will ba compelled to organize joint mea ures fer self defense.''
 Under these circumstances it is not surprising that growing feeling of animosity against the United ates finds expression even in the liberal and radical papers, which have h.ther been friendly to America.

A SHORTAGE.
Royal Treasurer of Scottish C-a7s
 Owes Much Money.

Cleveland, O., Oct. 16.-A mysteri- ous shortage in the order of Scottish clans is being looked into.
 For thirteen years Archibald Me Laren, the foremost Scot of Cleve- land and a prominent business man and wire manufacturer, had been roy al treasurer, but at the annual con vention at Montreal last August, John Hill of St. Louis was elected to suc- ceed McLaren.
 McLaren went to the convention but was i'll at his hotel and unable to attend a single session. He was brought home by a brother Scotsman. He was placed in an institution and his son stated that he had progress sive paresis.
 McLaren's accounts were squared With the order last December and his books are all straight. They show that he owes the order a little over S15, 5,G00
 This he admits and says he has the money all right and will pay it over as soon as he feels better. He says he IS sick and is unable to attend to the matter. His bank books show an apparent balance of clan money of s1,S00 and no more.
 The order is secured by bond in a security company and a mortgage on McLaren's fine residence here.

FARMERS AND STOCKRAIsERs.
Close of the Association Meetings
 Yesterday.

The work of the Arizona Agricul- tural association closed yesterday fore noon. The session was opened by discussion by E. s. Gosney of Flag staff, of the Arizona sheep industry, of which MT. Gosney took a very cheerful view in comparison with its condition for the preceding five years. He spoke also of cattle raising in the northern part of the territory, which he said was on the decrease and in his county was likely to be wholly superseded by sheep raising. There was, he said, need of additional legislation, as the pre5eIl5t inspector laws were inadequate.
 Dr. J. C. Norton, territorial vete1 narial, spoke at length on vaccination as a preventative of diseases of live stock. One thing upon which he in sisted was that the bodies Of dis eased animals should be burned, but never buried, as the germs of many diseases would be retained in the soil for many years.
 At the close of these discussions the following officers were elected, and committees appointed:
 President, William Stowe Devol, of Tucson university; vice-president, w. s. Johnson of Mesa City; secretary and treasurer, Charles w. Pugh of Phoenix; executive committee, J. Me Milan, J. W. Woolf, L. R. Shaw, A. H. Smith and Chaplain W. s. Scott; legislative committee, Governor M. H. McCord, P. F. Parker and Harry w Adams.
 A vote of thanks was tendered the university professors and the associa tion adjourned sine die.
 At o'clock the members of the association met With the Arizona live stock association in annual session at the Hotel Adams. The meeting was we'll attended. Representative of live stock interests from many parts of the territory were present. The meeting was opened by an address by Governor IMcCord on livestock matters with which he displayed an indimate acquaintance. J. w. Woolf addressed the association on the gen. eral subject of livestock in Arizona.
 Dr. Norton discussed sanitary con- ditions and spoke of the fever tick, a subject which had been assigned to him in the meeting of the az leu ,tural association. There is no ether mas- ter affecting the livestock industry which is of more general interest and the subject was therefore generally discussed.
 Captain P. P. Parker suggested means for extending the work and membership of the association, aft CT which the body adjourned, having postponed the election of officers until the next meeting, which may be called together by the executive committee or will be called at the request of fif- teen members of tn association.
 The meetings of these two associa- tions are of the greatest importance to Arizona and the members believe that a strong impetus will he given to the industries represented in them.

 T was In Iowa, Nebraska, Colorado and other western states, as well as in several southern states. I came into contact with people on the trains and elsewhere, but I heard no nOte of distress anywhere. The people of Nebraska appear to be particular y happy ever the situation, and in Col urado there was the same feeling. The industries in that state are all looking up, and the crops have teen good. Mining products are ircreas- ing in Colorado, notably gold and coal. This general feeling of satis- faction prevails everywhere, there be- ing no exception to this sta alemeut."
 Secretary Gage was asked regarding the amount of money in circulation, and the financial situation.
 Bank deposits, are larger than ever,' he said. "The cash reserves of the banks are ample, and there was plenty of money for commercial use wherever I went'

election or unite with the Republicans to
defeat, if possible, principles they have
heretofore pronounced dangerous and ie-
structive to public credit. The Bryanme
have made it very plain to their gold DEM
ocratic friends that the State convention
will be dominated by free silver men, and
that the Chicago platform will be endorsed
and made the rallying cry of the party.
State issues will be treated as secondary
matters. An honest election law and other
questions that should receive the highest
consideration will be ignored by the Bry-
antics. They will follow the example of
their leader and try to ride into power
upon the single issue of the free, unlimited
coinage of silver. What action will be
taken by the Republicans and gold Demo
Gratis cannot now be definitely declared,
but that resolute opposition will he offered
we have no doubt. Whilst the currency
question is forced or false issue, just as it
was in the Presidential election, those who
are opposed to the free, unlimited coinage
of the white metal will bravely meet the
issue and will not yield the views for which
they fought so resolutely in 1896.
We take it the Republicans will not per-
init the silver men to ignore what should
be the principle issue before the people, an
honest election law to be fairly admins
tered. The present law is too complex,
and was evidently framed for the purpose
of confusing rather than aiding voters in
the use of the ballot. 1t is to hepresumed
that the gold Democrats will unite with the
Republicans in demanding the enactment
of new election law, as the organization
of the gold men In Virginia last fall took
strong action to prevent frauds in the cleo
tons, thereby provoking warm denuncia-
tons from the Bryanites.
If the Republicans and gold Democrats
can unite all their forces. with such worthy
principles as sound currency and honest
elections to inspire them. they will not only
prove very formidable, but will win, unless
the most fragrant frauds are perpetrated by
those who control the election machinery.

As ''The Press pointed out the other day,
the immigration Hawaii excluded under
its laws was Fictitious pauper immigration
which apparently, had the legal amount of
property necessary to admit each immi-
grant, $50 head. In all Hawaii excluded
900 japanese. At first the japanese
representatives insisted on indemnity for
all and was was very 'high' about it.
Now it appears he practically admits the
fraudulent character of this immigration
and is willing to compromise on damages
for any actual owner of $50 who might
have been excluded. Naturally in sending
back nearly thousand men by mere acct
dent handful may have been legally
entitled to land. The Hawaiian Gov
eminent therefore acts wisely in agreeing
to make recompence in such cases. But
it does not back down and should not.
Moreover, Japan ought to prevent its
immigration companies working any fraud
on any nation, be it Hawaii or the United
States. That is principle the United
States has insisted on in the case of inn
migration from Italy.

A LOSS KEENLY FELT.

In the death Of Colonel Frank Huger
Roanoke loses one of her most highly es-
teemed citizens and the Norfolk and West
ern railroad one of its most faithful and
respected officers. Col Huger was South
Carolinian by birth and at an early age
entered the United States Military Acad-
envy at West Point. Graduating from that
institution just at the beginning of the war
between the States, he fearlessly drew his
sword in defense of his nativity, the South,
and by deeds of daring and loyal
bravery soon won for himself the title and
distinction of Colonel In his long con.
nection with the Norfolk and Western
railroad he proved himself wise and con-
seryatiye business man, always regarding
duty az the highest aim to which a man
could bend his efforts, and by his strict
allegiance to this watchword of success,
won for himself high position among his
fellow officials and impaired an example
to those over whom he had supervision
that has enabled them to rise and COM
mand positions of eminence and trust.
In his social relations he always proved
himself a friend and comrAde. Open
hearted and generous, his home was ever
open to his friends and he seemed to live
up to the maxim that "to have friends we
must be q friend"
The place made vacant by his sudden
death will be hard to fill, and the city, the
railroad and his host of friends feel
keenly the great loss they have sustained.
Roanoke Times.
The death of Col. Huger, which occurred
at Roanoke on last Thursday night, was
heard of with profound regret by all who
knew him. He was the most universally
popular railroad official we have ever known
and our acquaintance with him as such
extends back for more than thirty years.
We copy the above editorial notice of his
death from the Roanoke Times, which sub
stantially expresses our appreciation of the
brave and excellent man who was so sud-
denly removed from his work on earth.

AS TO GLASS HOUSES.
Why They Should Prevent the Throwing
of Stones in the Senate.
Washington Star, Ind.l.

Washington Star, Ind.l.
Although it is not intended, there is
something numerous in the exchanges
now going on in the Senate between Dem
ocratic Senators on the subject Of protection,
incidental or otherwise. Every man of
them is living in glass house. The party
itself lives in a glass house. Why should
there be any fusillade Of stones, therefore,
unless as a somewhat reckless diversion?
Everybody's domicile is more or less in
jured by it, and the great central domlclle
cracked all around.
The truth is, as the record incontro-
vertibly shows, the advocacy Of free trade,
properly so called has never had except
in very few individual cases, absolute
sincerity behindit. When the Democracy
as a party INDUCED in it, as 1892, it simply,
to use colloqulalism, was talking through
its hat. 1t was playing for the time being
upon hastily aroused prejudice against
high protection. But never seriously con-
templated giving the country genuine
free trade. Among the party leaders who
subscribed, apparently, to the platform of
that year were Mr.. Whitney, Mr.. Brice,
Mr.. German, Mr.. Murphy, Mr.. Smith,
Mr.. Henry G. Davis and Mr.. Flower.
These men were not free traders then, and
they are not free traders now. Theysimply
subscribed to the cry of the day, and no
sooner having won with it set to work to
nullify it. They succeeded in doing so.
The Wilson, Wilson tariff bill was no more
than a travesty OH the platform upon
which the Democracy had returned to
power. But it represented all that the
party could do in the way of tariff
legislation.
So, why this twitting of one Democrat
by an other for accepting the fruits and
benefits of protection for his own home
interests? They have all done it. They
will all continue to do it. Their people,
Democrats as we'll as Republicans, not only
expect such benefits, but demand them.
Protection is protection, whether incidental
or otherwise. Every duty that is now
imposed carries protection in one form or
another. The duty on sugar is revenue
duty, but it carries very substantial
incidental protection along with it, and the
sugar planters in demanding it want it laid
with this protection feature kept well in
view. and it is so laid, and with the
assistance of so.called free trade Demo.

AN EXPLANATION.

In justice to all parties, We willingly
state that note from Col. Pend!eton, this
morning, in reply to one from us, says that
his reference is to political character only,
in his editorial Of yesterday. We never
understood it any other way, as the con-
text and connection shows clearly.-Cllnch
Valley News.
1t is the universal custom when reference
is made to correspondence between editors
to publish it in full. For some reason the
News has not done SO; and for fear our
friends might have some misapprehension
as to the nature of the communications,
we will publish them. The following is all
that passed:
Tazewell, Va, June II, '97.
Col. w. G. Pendleton,
Dear Sir-Your reference to "doubtfll
character" in your editorial of yesterday is
capable of more than one construction. /
understand it to have a political reference
only. Will you please state in fact what
you meant. Very respectfully,
j. A. LESLIE.
In response to the above we promptly
sent the following:
Tazewell, Va, 6-11-'97.
Mr.. ]. A. Leslie,
Dear Sir-I know nothing of your per-
sonal character, except from heresay, and
my editorial in the REPUBLICAN ofthe 10th
inst. referred to your political character, as
the context shows. 1t is my intention, if
possible, to avoid personal controversies.
Yours &C.,
WIN. g. PENDLEoN.
