Chicken Fanciers Organize.

The Pullman Poultry Association has
been organized, and high bred roosters
and aristrocratic pullets will be the COM
mon talk i'll this city lienceforth.
The organization was effected last
Saturday, large number of chicken Ell
thusiasts meeting at John Kerr's shop
for the purpose. After a good deal OF
chicken talk, J. S. Keeney was elected
chairman of the association, and c. F.
Hoover, secretary, and committee COM
posed of Prof. Waller, Eugene Bryant,
Seymour Manning and Wilford Allen
was appointed to draft a constitution and
bylaws for the government of the asso-
citation, to report at another meeting to
be held next Saturday, March 3rd.
Those present and joining the associ-
alton were Eugene Bryant, A. c. Butcher,
J. NJ. Palmerton, Jas. Bradbury, Geo.

1t is the purpose of the association to
arouse enthusiasm i'll the raising of blood
ed poultry, and to hold show in this
city next fall. There are already a num-
Der of excellent birds owned here, as the
prizes won at Spokane and Colfax will
evidence and many new varieties will be
brought in this spring.
If you are not already a chicken crank,
get All old hen, a setting of fine eggs, and
raise prize winner for the first annual
show Of the Pullman Poultry Association.
It's fad both interesting and profitable.

Is it not this success rather than the
desire for money that is the object of

the European who sees in a fortune only
huge lump sum of money should mis-
understand the American money-getter
is only natural. 1t is true that this is

PAUL KRUGER IN FRANCE.
Although the cabinet headed by NJ.
Waldeck Rousseau succeeded in repuls-
ing its assaiants on the reassembling of
the Chamber of Deputies, the task was
not an easy one, and is certain to be
made more difficult by the arrival at
Marseilles of Mr.. Kruger, lately presi-
dent of the South African Republic.
The Nationalist insist that England's
annexation of the Transvaal and the
Orange Free State was not jus titled by
| the facts, the Beers still having armies In
the field; that Mr. Kruger is still presi-
dent de jure and de fpctO of an Independent

diplomatic relations with France, and

Is reelected.
When the l6 to ! plank was separately
re-affitmed, upon the direct demand of
Mr.. Bryan and with the complacent as
sistance of Croker, though against the
clearly expressed judgment of the dele
gates, the fate of the ticket was sealed.
That plank became a milestone around
the candidates neck. II was impossible
to keep the money question out Of the
campa'g n, even though as an issue it was
dead. Mr.. Bryan's silence on l6 to | in
the East led to attacks upon his sincerity
and was regarded as an admission of the
utter defenselessness of the plank he had
Insisted upon relterating.
If the free-silver policy was "party
suicide" in 1896, it was a provication to
punishment after death" In 1900.
Though the result of the election veri-

public. 1t gives very full review of
the work done with the state highway
tax and the kind of roads built wiki the
states money. The summary for 1899
shows that SIP, 1910 was expended on
permanent roads and that SS7774 ~ of
this was paid for by the state The
total mileage of the roads in the
state that year was l4,SO4 % miles and
a total mileage of permanent roadway

give expression only to regret; in an
other, it may seek to commit the civil
authorities to course inconsistent with
their international obligations. When
Kossuth reached the United States the
Hungarian republic was defunct, and
it was notorious that not a single Mag
var remained in arms. Kossuth did not
even profess to be any longer chief mag
istrate of Hungary. 1t must be acknowl-
edged that the situation in South Africa
is materially different, and that Mr..
Kruger has some basis for his assertion
that he comes to Europe in an official
capacity. Not only is there guerrilla
warfare all oyer the Boer republics. but
Gen. De Wet and Gen. Botha are respect
lively at the head of considerable forces
in the Orange Free State and the Trans
vaal. 1t cannot be denied that. if such
state of things had existed in Hungary
at the time of Kossuths visit to the
United States, and if we had previously
recognised the Hungarian Republic, its
president would have occupied in our
eyes different position.
About Mr.. X uger's pretensions there
that he is still president of the South
African Republic, and that he comes to
Europe as the accredited envoy of that
commonwealth and of the Orange Free
State. He comes, he says, with pur-
pose not dissimilar to that with which
Benjamin Franklin went to France dur
ing the American Revolutionary War.
His mission, indeed, is more modest
one. He no longer asks for complete
political independence, but his mission
is, so he AYERS, to persuade one or more
European powers to urge England to put
a stop to the shedding Of blood in South
Africa by offering the burghers terms
that they can accept. Legislative auton-
omy in domestic matters is the utmost
that he now hopes for; 9nd, doubtless,
he would agree to admit the Uitlanders
to the franchise upon liberal conditions.
1t is not impossible that the British gov
eminent, Disguised at the prospect of
intermnable warfare, might listen to
such proposal, were it controlled to-day
by such men as Lord Durham showed
himself to be when he was sent to pacify
Canada after Paplneau's rebellion.
There is not, however, the slightest
chance that the British government
will restore legislative autonomy to the
| Transvaal and the Orange Free State at
| the pretent time. On the contrary, it
would resent as an unfriendly act any
! application to that end on the part of
| foreign power. We may, therefore. take
for granted that NJ. Delcasse, the French
minister for foreign affairs, who has no
desire to plunge his country into war
with England. will set his face like flint
against such an attempt at meditation on
the part of France. 1t is even probable
that he will oppose with almost equal
vehemence an official reception of Mr..
Kruger at the executive palace. Then
the Waldeck- Rousseau cabinet will find
itself again in jeopardy, for not a few
of its habitual supporters may concur
with the nationalist in thinking that 1t
