Inc Eastern press is just now rum
ming an immense prosperity factory
and the output Is something marvel
lous.
Fictitious and imaginary mills are
opening I'm every nook and corner of
the land, employing from 100 TO 5000
hands each, wages are going up by
leaps and bounds, the demand for la

kind, world without end.
All this fictitious prosperity is manu-
factured by the yard of space in New

branch office in Chicago and another
in San Francisco, and filtered through
the subsidized Republican press, and
run into other newspapers whose man.

In the meantime the legitimate

out on strike against reduction to the

The creation of a fictitious mirage OF
prosperity TO obscure the awful condi-

Hanna ias his eye on the three state
senators from Toledo, and made up his
mind that the appointment of Piatt
would not help to secure them and that
the appointment of Touvel1e would,
Nor was that Mr.. Hannn's sole
reason. Mr.. Piatt's sympathies natu-
rally are with unhahppy and down-trod-
den Ireland. His long official resi-
dence there only confirmed and
strengthened them. And worst of all
Mr.. Hanna learned that Mr.. Platt was
not in sympathy with the British
system or flnance, and did not believe
in laying the 70,0O0,0O0 people of the
United States under tribute TO pay the
usurious claims of the gold kings Of
Lombard street.

Piatt became a persona non grata, and

Groans from Republicans Two Of the

Through Under special order.

WAsuiScToN. March c2.-Yesterday
was u stormy day IN the House Of Rep.
rescntativcs. The Republican leaders,
before adjournment, had secured the
adoption of u special order fixing the
limits OF the tariff debate, and two of
the regular appropriation bills, which
failed TO become laws at the Inst SEES
sion, had been passed and sent to the
senate. The other two will he passed
to-day, SO that, as Mr.. Cannon re-
marked, all the driftwood Of the last
Congress will be swept away before
the struggle over the tariff bill begins.
MIR. Bailey OF Texas, who made his
debut as the leader OF the minority,
was favorably received by his side, and
announced IL to be the policy OF the
minority not To delay the passage OF
the tariff bill. Mr.. Dinglcy, the floor
leader Of the majority, recalled the
fact that a dire prophecy of the result
of the Mckinley bill had been made
by Secretary Carlisle, then the leader
of the minority, on the occasion OF the
passage of the Mckinley law. The
people, he said. had listened to the
SIRENS song, but their experience dur
ing the last four years had made them
wiser.
Mr.. nalzcll, Republican, OF Pcnnsyl-
vania, from the committee on rules,
presented the special rules under
which the House was to operate dur
ing the tariff debate. The rule pro-
vidcd that general debate should be-
gin on Monday ut 10 o'clock and con-
tinuc to and including Thursday,

and final passage OF the bill. The rule
also gave leave TO print for twenty
days.

CARING FOR THE FARMERS

brigham Explains II.

brigham Explains II.
WASHINGTON, March oe Colonel J..
II. brigham, the new assistant sccrc.
tnrv OF agriculture, expressed tho
opinion to-day that the agricultural
outlook was very hopeful aud hat the
President and Congress and the depart
ment would thoroughly cooperate in
the interests OF the farmers. lie said:
THE administration will in every way
possible encourage the diycrsifcation
Of crops and make a determined
effort TO secure the growing in
the United States OF everything
needed here which IL Is possible
TO raise. We are nov buying
large quantities Of sugar, wool, eggs,
hides, beans, barley, potatoes and
othc~ products, while all these things
are almost everything that w need
for ourselves and should be grown
here. There Is too much Of overpro.
duction OF cor and other products. II
the farmers enter on this policy OF di-
vcrsi fcation they will reduce these
Improbable big areas and products
and so avoid q surplus TO bear down
the market, and then they will gc.
more for their cereals, etc, than they
get now. IL this years crop were only
one.half Of what II is there would DC
much more money for the farmers.
"As to the foreign countries, II they
impose restrictions TO the detriment OF
our agricultural interests, they un-
doubtcdly will be met with such retail
iation by this country. IL they don't
give the products OF our country fair
show they will encounter similar con-
ditions here. That much is certain
and positive, This country will make
n thorough inspection Of our meat
products and there will be no excuse
for the claim that they are not health
full, as contcndcd by foreign govern
ments. Germany especially Is doing
everything possible tn protect her
farmers In this way. while the interests
Of those of England seem to be sacri-
feed by their government. An effort
will be made early to adjust the mat
ter of restrictions now imposed by
Germany. This will DO done through
amicable negotiations, but falling, re-
taliation will follow.
1.-THE president will make the agri-
cultural interest one Of the irst things
TO be considered In his administration.
and he will see that II is properly pro-
tectcd and fostcred. Whatever our
views are we will not combat Con-
gress, The discovery OF new and rare
seeds will be encouraged and their
efficacy tried in various climates and
the farmers properly advised. We
will furnish to the people choice and
rare seeds anyway, but whether to
distribute seeds generally is u matter
for Congress to determine, and II that
body wants IL lone the department
will do IL. and whatever Is provided for
will be performed"
