agreeing on any one other than Towne,
Mr.. Corser qualified his letter to the
Democratic chieftain by saying that
possibly, and perhaps preferably, the
reform forces would unite on TOwne."
BY the same token OF possibly and pre-
ferably" he opined that they might see
fit to agree upon some one else. In sub
stance he submitted to Senator Jones
the proposition that the comipg conven-
tons will not meet to name any man
now named, but to agree upon the best
man whose name might at that time be
proposed, when circumstances might
slightly or materially alter cases.

CONGRESSMAN MUST BE CAREFUL.
All legislation affecting directly the
interests Of the farmers and their pro-
ducts are to be looked after by Mr.. Han
ley in Washington, until the end Of the
present session of congress. But the
movement, SO far as this country is
concerned. Mr.. Hanley says, is only in
It's infancy, and they only expect to
accomplish their ultimate aim for the
permanent benefit of the farmer by de-
grees and through work extending over
years. But as a matter of fact, he says,
the thousands OF farmers who belong to
those various organizations are very
much In earnest, and the course OF
members Of congress in all matters af-
fecting the interests OF the farmers will
be closely watched, irrespective of party
politics, and opposition to those inter-
ests will be resented at the polls.
The ship subsidy bill is one of the
first matters coming up In which the
associated organizations are interested
under the resolution, and it Is thought
by Mr.. Hanley that the political sig
nificance Of the attitude of the various
organizations will have no little weight
with members of congress, especially
those from the agricultural sections of
the country.

England's Apology.

Lord Salisbury has apologized to the
United States for the opening by the
British censor at Durham of mail ad-
dressed to ex-Consul Charles E. Mac
rum at Pretoria.
Mr.. Macrum was United States cOn-
sui at Pretoria at the breaking out of
the war between the English and the
Beers. ;! For some reason which has new
er been explained, but which is under
stood to be the fact that England OBJ
jected to him. he was recalled and Mr..
Hays young son sent to take his place.
The young man went by way Of London
to receive his final instructions, and is
now at his post drawing a salary from
our government and looking after the
queens interests.
When Mr.. Macrum arrived home he
made some astonishing charges. These
charges were that his official CORES
pondence had been opened in transit by
the queens officers and that a secret
compact existed between our govern
ment and the English government.
When the ex-consul made these charges,
at once they were greeted with a big
horse laugh by the Anglo Maniac press
and administration organs. A most
desperate effort was made to laugh Mac
rum and his charges out of court. But
it failed in part. In the senate reso-
buttons of inquiry were introduced, and
though it is attempted to keep them
pigeon-holed, on every occasion some
senator drags them forth to the light.
And now comes the apology from the
English government for opening our
consular mail. Finding that denial will
no longer avail the shifty English
statesmen who would stoop SO low as
to violate the sancity of sealed CORES
pondence, nimbly step forward and ten
der their craven apology. The fierce
lion who roars and lashes his tail when
he can spring on little republic sinks
his tail between his legs and cringingly
tenders his apology when the voice Of
strong people call attention to his
rascality.
OF course, the rendering of this
apology will settle the matter so far as
it relates to violating our consular cor
respondence. When a fellow confesses
his sin, admits he acted dishonorably
and on his knees begs pardon Of the Of
Tended party, he should be forgiven, or
at least allowed to go with contempt.
There would be little use in whipping
him, and especially when whipping him
would require the expense Of buying a
new whip. England's apology should
be accepted. But this does not end the
matter.
This apology on the part of England
is an admission that Macrum's charge,
50 far as it related to English violation
OF the mail, is true This is strong pre-
sumptive evidence that his other charge,
that secret agreement exists between
our government and England is also
true.
The resolutions of inquiry should be
pressed. II our administration has made
secret pledges to England; il it has
secretly betrayed our people and sold
them to England, it is time that this
treason should be brought to light.

Every Step Bitterly Conte.ted.

Every Step Bitterly Contested.
By Carrie Chapman Gait, president
National Suffrage association.
There is no more elaborate argument
or determined opposition to woman SUI
frage than there has been to each step
OF the progress of the rights Of women.
Scientists measured heads and weighed
brains to prove that girls could not
men read the scriptures to prove that
they must not, and public opinion
echoed the opinions Of both. But girls
did master the college curriculum.
When the world recovered from its
establishment, scientists measured
anew and discovered that measurement
and weight could determine little of
the quality of the human brain; clergy
men re-interpreted the scriptures, and
public opinion adjusted itself to the
new conclusion. Each step of the way
has been bitterly contested, and that
there has been advancement in the
rights OF women at all is due entirely
to the fact that the few, not the many.
possessed the right to insure the change.
Had 1t been necessary to submit the
question Of co-education to popular
vote before the experiment had been
tried, there would not be 10000 young
women studying in our colleges and uni
versities today. The consensus of pub
lie opinion in 1880 was that the brains
OF women were quite incompetent to re-
ceive college education; that their
physical health could not endure four
years course of study, and that a COL
lege educated woman was an anomaly
alike repulsive to men and women.
Had vote been taken co-education
would have been overwhelmingly de-
feated.
The progress has come because women
of larger mould. loftier ambition, and
nobler self-respect than the average
have been willing to face the opposition
OF the world for the sake of liberty
More than one such as these deserve the
rank Of martyr. The sacrifice OF suf-
fering, Of doubt, Of obloQuy, which has
been endured by the pioneers in the
woman movement will never be fully
known or understood. For 60 years
and more vigorous agitation has been
waged in the United States to establish
equal rights for women with mon.
Under its influence and guided by the
brave leadership of brave men and wom-
en-. the evolution OF woman's rights has
moved on without q break.

Belgian hare meat at 20 cents a
pound and Belgian hare skins at from
so cents to 81 apiece is delusion and
a snare, and snare that does not catch
Belgian hares but anxious-to-get-rich-
quick hare raisers.
Since the first announcement of the
profits to be made in raising Belgian
hares many have invested and, with
their first crop of new hares, have be-
gun to make inquiries for market.
AS result local dealers in meats and
furs have no end of letters asking for
information. One of these dealers has
taken the trouble to Investigate and pro-
nounces the whole business utterly
hopeless SO far as profits go.
"The meat has no market value at
ALL" he says. land skins that have been
said to bring from SO cents to 81 apiece
in fact will not bring more than two
cents at the outside"
This same dealer-W. J. Burnett. pro-
prietor and manager of the Northwest
ern Hide and Fur company-adds:
I'VE have received an immense num-
Der of Inquiries as to what we are
paying for Belgian hare skins. Thous-
ands of farmers throughout the country
have leen humbugged by being induced
to go into the Belgian hare business
by the shrewd manipulators. They say
that immense fortunes are easily made
by raising the hares for market. In
fact, there is no market whatever for
the meat In any cities of this country.
For the skins there is no present mar
ket in New York, Philadelphia, Boston
or San Francisco. There was one firm
in San Francisco that advertised last
winter to buy the skins. We wrote
twice asking what they would pay for
skins, but got no reply. We wrote to
the publishers who had their advertise
ments in their journals, and they wrote
back that they had never received any
ray for their advertisements and be-
lesed, as we did, that the firm was a
fraud. The skins have no more value
in this country than those of common
hares of like size. The fur is only used
for hatters' stocks, and the Belgian hare
skins from foreign countries can be
had dressed and dyed for less than one
quarter what these humbugs claim the
raw skins ere worth here. It is the
poorest and cheapest of all furs, being
so tender that there is no wear to it.
We are greatly annoyed by farmers and
others asking us what the skins are
worth as fur.
There is one part of the tales told
that there is no fake in; that's the won
derful way in which they increase in
numbers. We prophesy that in less
than ten years, when those who have
the animals turn them loose, they will
multiply SO fast that they will become a
pest as bad as the rabbits in Australia.
Then the states will be called upon to
pay bounty to get rid Of them"
