One of the best evidences of bet
ter times returning to business IN
the United States is the statement
of the United States Treasury that
there has been an increase in the
money in circulation at the close of
the first six months of 1897, of
nearly $140,0OO,000 as compared
with 1896. This increase has been
caused in anticipation of an expan-
sion of business in the South and
West as we'll as the North. And it
is said to be a remarkable fact that
public sentiment at the South, in
Guiding some of the cotton grow

afraid Of being ruined by Egyptian
cheap labor 1t is in response to
their clamors that the Senate has
adopted a tariff amendment, intro
duced by Mr.. Bacon of Georgia,
imposing a duty of 20 per cent. ad
valorem on cotton. The amend
ment was offered by the Georgia
senator on his individual response
bility, without the approval of the
Senate finance committee. In spite
of its lack of official sanction, it
passed by a very emphatic major
ity, the vote standing ~ yeas to 19
NAYS, a few of the old school free
trade Democrats voting in favor of
it. Cotton from Egypt, South Am
erica and perhaps India has been
largely imported of late into Amer
lea, which has tended to keep down
the price of the great staple pro
duct of the South. The cultivation
of cotton in Hawaii has never paid
as a business venture, except for a
short period during the American
war, when the sea island variety
grown on these islands, and shipped
to the United States, gave a hand
some profit for short period. But
when the war closed, the price
dropped to a low figure, and it did
not pay to send it to New York or
London, owing to the excessive
freight charged on it. This variety
will not bear the heavy packing
which the short staple does, as it
has a more delicate fiber, and the
manufacturers prefer it baled more
loosely. For instance, three or four
bales of sea island will equal in
weight one bale of Georgia cotton,
but being charged by space, has to
pay three or four times the heavy
rate demanded to New York or Eu-
rope. For this reason it is doubt
full whether capital can be induced
to embark in it's cultivation when
the odds are strongly against its be-
coming profitable; and certainly it
will not pay so we'll as coffee or
sugar.

London, Nov. 27.-Special dispatches
received here from Shanghai say that
Baron Won Heyking, the German min
lister to China, has presented to the
Chinese government the demands Of
Germany for reparation for the recent
murder of German missionaries and
the destruction of German mission
properly. These demands include the
discovery and execution Of the muir
derers Of the missionaries, the punish
ment of the implicated officials, the re-
construction of the mission buildings,
the payment of an indemnity of 600,0 0O
taels to the relatives of the victims,
and also the payment of a heavy in
demnity to cover the expenses of the
German naval expedition and the
maintenance Of the German force at
Kiaochau bay.
The Chinese government replied that
Kiachau bay must be evacuated be-
fore the demands can be discussed.
Baron Won Heyking refused to consent
to this, and a deadlock was the result
The foreign diplomats say hat the
German conditions are impossible OF
acceptance, and they assert that they
were only presented to enable Germany
TO retain Kiachau bay and to extent
northward her hold on Chinese terri
tory.

An Important issue.

1t was said hv Roscoe Conkling a
short time before his death that the
next great ISIS e that w,ald force it.
self upon the American people would
be immigration. That issue ha-
come, and in a very serious form. AT
the last session of Congress a Ger
man steamship company made n
threat that it would defeat a certain
member of Congress for reelection
unless he did its bidding in the matter
of immigration.
1t is perhaps as well that the
country should understand that the
interests bent on flooding our ports
with undesirable immigrants are not
going to yield without a desperate
fight. Congress passed a bill of e1-
clusion, but President Cleveland
seized upon the last chance Of his ad-
minfstration and kept a salutary law
off the statute books.
But the immigration question is
II that will not down, and it must
be met and settled. 1t should have
been settled years ago, but neglect
procragtination and the indulgence
of special interests kept the Republi-
can party from doing its full duty.
The defeat of 1892 WIS a sharp re
hinder. Many artisans Toted the
Democratic ticket in that year NOT
because they had been won rel to
the principles of Democracy, but out
of a feeling of resentment against
the Republican party for its failure
to properly restrict immigration.
A tariff on foreign products with
out adequate safeguards for the work
ingman against foreign labor, seemed
to then a narrow and One-sided
system Of protection. The Contract
Labor law had reduced, it is true,
the evils OF which they complained,
but it had not abolished them. Had
the party OF protection met the issue
as it should have been met, it would
have been impossible to elect a Presi.
dent on "a platform committed to a
revenue tariff and wildcat banks.
The fall Of 1896 returned a protec-
ZIONIST President and a protectionist
Congress. The fall Of 1898 will choose
a e House Of Representatives, and
in that campaign the Republican
party ought to 90 before the country
with the record Of a wholesome law
barring our ports against the objec.
tionable class Of immigrants who
have in former times been permitted
to swarm i'm upon us like the locusts
Of Egypt, and who have alreadydone
the country almost incalculable harm.
The Congress Dol to assemble
will have the power to enact such q
measure it will be backed by q
President who will not nullify the
work Of Congress, as Cleveland did
and the much-needed law should be
provided without further delay.

Princeton, Ind, Nov. 2L-Nineteen
prisoners confined in the Gibson county
Jail yesterday declared themselves in
open revolt against Sheriff Murphy.
For several days threats have been
made by the prisoners, and the sheriff
has been warned. Yesterday the men
declared they would have more food
or kill the sheriff. A posse of deputies
was placed outside the jail, while Sher-
if Murphy entered the building alone.
As soon as he closed the door the pris-
oners, headed by John Boyer, a mo-
torious criminal, rushed upon him and
were about to carry out their threats
when the posse rescued the sheriff. A
fierce fight ensued between Boyer and
Murphy, and Boyer was beaten almost
into insensibility and then thrown into
a cell. When the prisoners saw their
leader Wors I'd they were suppressed
without further trouble. Boyer says
he will kill Murphy.

Chesterfield, Ind, Nov. 27.-An ex-
plosion of nitro-glycerine occurred a
half mile west of this city Thursday
night. Sixty quarts Of nitro-glycerine
had been hauled to the place for the
purpose Of shooting a gas well. The
explosive was placed in a large zinc
tub located at the end Of a steam eX-
haust pipe, for the purpose Of thawine
out the mixture. 1t is the theory that
the tub became overheated, causing the
explosion. A hole ten feet long and
several feet in depth was torn in the
earth, and the engine was blown to
pieces,
Drillers Haney and Mcclure had a
remarkable escape. They were stand
ing within 30 feet Of the scene of the
accident and were hurled 20 feet by the
force Of the explosion, but with the ex.
ception of a few bruises they are un-
hurt. Persons one mile away were
lifted from their feet by the conclusion
and the jar was felt for ten miles.
