Reforms In Turkey.
A Blue Book Issued by the
British Government.
Russia Proves The Stumbling
Block.

The Government has issued a
blue book containing the official cor
respondrnce in regard to the pros
iected reforms IN Turkey. The
correspondence shows that on Sep
TENDER 23 last Lord Salisbury pros
posed that the powers taken meas
ures to enforce their proposals, and
that IN the part of any power to
assume us share in the cOerclve
measure applied that power should
not oppose the action of any other.
Austria gave her assent to this pro-
position without qualification, and
later Germany aSsented with the
proyiso that any coercive action
taken bv the powers against Turkey
must be unanimous and, further,
that the integrity of the Ottoman
empire mast be maintained. Italy
gave her absolute assent to the pro-
posal. But Russia objected to any
scheme which involved the appli-
cation of coercion to make it oper-
alive. In interposlng this object
ion NJ. ShShkln, then al the head of
the Russian foreign Office, stated
that coercive action was repugnant
to the car. 1t reply to this Lord
Salisbury expostulaLed with the
Russian minister, saying that 1t
would be useless for The powers to
make further concerted representa-
tons to the uorte in regard to re-
forms unless they were prepared to
enforce their proposals.
On November "a M. Shiskln
wrote to Lord Salisbury saying
that the car had agreed to consider
the question Of coercion if the
sultan should prove recalcltrant, and
the other powers were nnansmously
in favor of resorting to coercion,
About the end of December
France gave similar assent to
measures of coercion, and the
governments Of Russia, AS ria and
Italy reahirmed their adhesion to
hal plan Of action,
Lord Sailsbury's correspondence
on the subject closes with letter
dated January Helena World.

a Novel Discovery.

The discovery Of a gun
boat under a Minnesota
farm is about as novel as
would be the finding Of a
Minnesota farm under the
A tlantic Ocean. Such a
discovery was, however,
made on the farm of Charles
Brown, near Olivia, in Rem
will county, Mimi, the farm
being bottom land, y A
laborer struck the vessel
while digging a well, and
completely uncovered it.
It's armament comprised
five cannon and two mortars.
Cannon balls and bomb shells
were found in large numbers.
The boat is a very old one,
and there is much speculation
as to how long it has been in
the ground. The impress
sion is that the boat was run
up into this region about
1000, when a large proper
ton of the State was under
water. The gunboat was
found directly on Cooleys
which at that time
was no doubt a navigab,e
river. st. Louis Christian

BimetalliC Situation,

GaheIte,
The February number of the
National Review will con-
tain an important review of
the bimetallic situation in
Europe by the leaders or the
movement in England France
and Germany and arranged
specially il view Of the visit
to Europe of Senator ed
ward O. Wolcott, Of Colo
RADIO, who is now in Paris.
Edmund D'Arters, sec.
rotary Of the French BIZ
metallic League, contributes
a careful article on the
situation and the steady
growth of the movement in
France. In 1t he declares
that there is no doubt that
the French government and
a great majority Of the
French parliament are in
favor Of bimetallism, adding;
"Our hopes today are greater
than ever because we believe
that the American elevation
has revealed to Europe gen
orally, and to England
especially, the impasse (blind
alley) into which gold mono.
metallism has lead the world.
1t has been shown conclu.
sively that international
bimetdllists are far more
logical partiSans of sound
money than morometalllsts, y

THE CIGARETTE EVIL.

The state of New York has
stringent anti>trust law which was
passed by the last legislature. AL
though nearly every trust IN the
Union operates in the state, but one
indictment against members of a
trust has been found. The men
who are indicted and who must
stand trial are the officers and
directors Of the American Tobacco
Company, commonly known as the
cigarette trust The indictment
was found last May, and the men
who viii be tried are James B,
Duke, William IL, Batter, William
A, Marburg, Lewis Ginter George
ArentS, Geo. W, Gail, Ben AMIN N.
Duke, George W, Watts, Josiah
Brown and Charles &. Emery.
A demurrer to the Indictment was
made, but it has been overruled and
the case must be tried.
Prior to 1876 the cigarette busl'
ness in this country was Of small
proportions, but the habit speedy
developed and by 1880 thousands Of
people had fallen under the bane>
ful influence Of the cigarette and
the manufacturers of them soon
acquired lonunes. So lucrative was
the business that numerous factories
were started throughout the East.
The competition became very keen
and the leading m nufacturers, who
controlled ali Of the popular brands,
decided to organize q trust and
drive their weaker rivals out OF
business. The trust was formed,
and every maker Of q brand OF
cigarettes which had sale Of any
importance, became u member OF
IT.. The combination was great
success. For a number Of years an
average of S5,OO0,0G0 annually was
pad in dividends to the stockhold>
o,s, who were the men who have
been indicted. N"Ga2ette,

that only England blocks
the way. Germany, he adds,
will participate in a con-
ference called by any other
power.
But" DR.. Arendt ex-
plans, will not, as in 1892,
be represented by fanatic
gold men, but will contribute
by raising and fixing the
price of silver, liberal free
trade ard the Socialist press
with the entire parliament
tary left, fighting the
double standard, which they
represent "a enabling

cages w it h deprecated

enriching American mine
owners. But the left neither
controls Parliament nor the
government.
"And," continues Mr..
Arendt, "should a conferen-
ce be summoned, the Ger
man parliament can be re-
lied upon to be its strong
supporter"
Lord Alderman, who is
a director of the Bank of
England, devotes much
space in refutlng the argu-
ment of the Gold Standard
Defense Association which
declared n a t Senator
Wolcott was unable to an
swer the first question asked
by English bankers and
traders. His lordship
thinks that the month OF
March will enable Mr.. Nc
Kinley to carry out the st,
Louis program IN regard
to bimetallism, and concludes
with remarking: ''There
is no doubt that France and
the United States by agree
ing together could them

law; but for great certainty
and confidence, it would be
reasonable that they should
ask for England and Ger

Our Industrial Progress.
Continued from last week. }

Now suppose, yielding to
the theory that the active
and vigorous development of
manufacturing an d mining
industries ia the south, in
competition with those al
ready developed in the north
and east, be accepted as the
true theory, The result
must be apparent. The
additional products Of these
mines a II d manufactures
could no more come IN
competition in the open
market of the world with
the foreign products of the
same character produced by
the poverty stricken and
serf labor of the old world,
both in the gold using and
silver using countries and
measured by the gold meas
ure alone, than do the pro-
ducts of northern and east
ern mines and manufactures.
Therefore, we would have
only the home market, and
it already overstocked, for
the additional products COM
irg from our in lustrles. The
prices won Id be forced to a
lower and lower level until
profits would cease and
bankruptcy would be the
result to all those who en-
gagged in that class of en-
terprises and those who are
induced by them and their
theories to forsake the old
farm.
Of course | understand
that whenever it is prac-
teal it is wise for us tc
build up such manufactures
as will readily find a market
in our own section for such
articles as we may make and
to which more distant manu-
factories cannot come in
competition with us; but we
must remember the great
and powerful aggregations
and combinations, already
formed in the north and
east, are Of such a character
and their influence is so far
reaching in their practical
application to our commercial
life that it is rarely and in
exceptional cases and To-
calities where they can be
developed with profit,
1t is the farming industry
and things cognate and di-
rectly connected with that
industry that should call for
our most earnest, unselhsh
and patriotic efforts in its
development, and this can
only be done by rendering it
financially remuneratlve'
Along the lines indicated,
profting by the lessons OF
adversely, by the application
Of the most rigid rules of
economy, notwithstanding
the injustice of the present
precious money measure OF
our products and property,

more happy and promising,
and that will lead to small
and profitable manufactur-
ing and mining enterprises
distributed all over the state
and not concentrated at one
or two points, and this |
consider the only prosperity
worthy of the name, In
my Judgment, that which
has been called prosperity
and development in the build
ing of industries in great
cities and their environments
is an incalculable curse, and
is not prosperity at all, and |
do not desire it for the peo-
pie whom | love, not only here

| would say the same thing
in regard to the north and
east, but they have already
passed under the yoke. "
The system that | denounce
has already been built up and
fastened upon the social life
of our fellow citizens there.
Their industries are abso-
lutely and per nanently in the
bands of the favored few
But in the south and west
conditions are different, and
we have an opportunity, as
| have intimated before, OF
creating and handing down
to those who come after us
a happier and more democrat
lc condition of social and
industrial life.
Upon the same principles
and the same reason as al
ready expressed, | wish tc
say that immigration to the
south, according to the
generally accepted idea, is
not necessarily a desirable
thing, A healthy, regular
and steady flow Of immi.
grafton Of tho right kind,
not so rapid as not to become
assimilated with the popu-
lation already with us or tC
clog and Cypress the local in
dustrial community, is a
thing to be desired; but be-
yond this it is my deliberate
Judgment, and | believe any
serious man, who has taken
the trouble | have done to
visit in person and see with
my own eyes the life Of the
communities that have re-
ceived this boosted kind of
immigration in all of the
manifest Gun, Americanisn, y
will understand just what !
mean by these remarks.
An immigration to our
farm and farming lands,
under conditions wherein
there would be a reasonable
prospect of their profitable
development, | shall always
hail with delight, But an
immigration made up, as
usually is the rule, Of foreign
born population Of the lower
classes of continental Europe,

Speak Kindly OF the Living.
{ MOoreSville RecOId.O


1t is the custom of the human family
with possibly a few exceptions, to say
and do as little for their fellow travel
lers in life as possible, but as soon as
they are dead, flowers and high com
plimen's are heaped upon them. Some
men almost sacrifice their lives in
doing good and not word of cheer
is ever heard, but rather denunciatlon
and criticism is their unhappy lot.
This ought not be and will not be, if
we rightly appreciate good people 1t
is high token Of esteem 10 cover the
graves of loved ones with rare flowers,
but if in life these flowers were wanton
ly withheld, there IS no real honor in
this act but rather dlshonor for it
shows plain ly that their love was not
real. Many good things were said of
the dead that were withheld while t hey
were were In life, which, if they had
been said, might have liehened many
heavy burdens that were carried to the
grave. II you want to display any
rhetoric or tlpwers upon US let them
come while we can appreciate them
and then when our body is laid ,o
rest there will be greater consistency
in covering our mound with flowers
The death of General Clingman fully
illustrates the above. His last day:
on earth were not spent in a dowe1
garden, but since he is gone there are
people who are anxious to do non r to
his memory. 1t he cOnld rise frou,
his grave and know what has been SAT-
he would doubtless exclaim, "Wha,
fools these mortals be-" 1t is alrigh
TO honor the dead, but we should no
withhold honor due to the living.
